Actors Park Jung-min and Ji-soo confront hordes of zombies.

The team behind the Coupang Play series 'Newtopia' (directed by Yoon Sung-hyun) unveiled the main poster and second teaser on the 24th. Scenes of Seoul amidst a zombie outbreak were captured.

The main poster depicts a tense moment featuring Jae-yoon (played by Park Jung-min) and Young-joo (played by Ji-soo). They gaze with significant expressions at the zombies rushing towards them.

Their chosen weapons are also impressive. Jae-yoon wields a lighter and spray can, while Young-joo brandishes a blood-stained chainsaw, ready for battle.

The teaser introduces a cast of unique characters, including the duo. Like the phrase 'I will survive and run to you now,' they show their determination against the zombies.

By their sides are allies. Jae-yoon's team includes Private Line-ho (played by Lim Sung-jae), hotel manager Aaron Park (played by Kim Joon-han), and squad members who join forces against the rampaging zombies.

On Young-joo's team, university senior Jin-wook (played by Kang Young-seok), brainiac Alex (played by Lee Hak-joo), and third-year student (played by Tang Joon-sang) step up. They unite to navigate through critical moments.

An official stated, "In an unpredictable emergency, will Jae-yoon and Young-joo's love survive? Please watch until the end," expressing anticipation.

Meanwhile, 'Newtopia' tells the story of soldier Jae-yoon and his girlfriend Young-joo, as they traverse the zombie-infested streets of Seoul to reunite. It premieres on the 7th of next month.
