2020 gave us the sweetest K-dramas that got us fighting over male leads like Start -Up, swooning over the law-bending love story in CLOY,  and being inspired by the underdog story of Park Saeroyi in Itaewon Class.

Released on December 18, 2020, Sweet Home revolves around the story of survival from monsters. Following the death of his family, teenager Cha Hyun Soo moves to a new neighborhood and tries to adjust to his new life. However, his new life changes as a mysterious phenomenon spread across the city: humans are turning into vicious monsters, and together with his neighbors, they have nothing left to do but fight to survive.
