Netflix Sets July 2021 Premiere and Releases Posters and Trailers for Kingdom: Ashin of the North Starring Jeon Ji Hyun

The zombie series Kingdom continues onward, with now two seasons under its belt and a sideways foray coming with Kingdom: Ashin of the North. It’s not called either a prequel or a sequel, and instead is sorta a side-quel where the story goes into the origin of the zombie plant and the mysterious woman known as Ashin of the North who may or may not have a played a key role in its origination and spread. Jeon Ji Hyun is the titular Ashin who made a one second cameo at the end of season 2 of Kingdom, a cool warrior woman who keeps zombies chained and appears unafraid of that danger around her. Netflix will release Ashin on July 23rd and Jeon Ji Hyun along with original Kingdom male lead Joo Ji Hoon will then meet audiences together in October when their mountain climbing drama Cliffhanger (Mount Jiri) is released.

  • Sorry she dont suit in saeguk.She shine more in modern day,I still can feel cheon song yi vibe in this series.Well,i hope her married life and her career doing well.

    • Sorry but I disagree. I think she did well in sageuk. That's based on how I enjoyed her sageuk part in LOTBS cause it toned down her sassiness that she usually portrayed in modern roles. Anyway, Cheon Song Yi is too iconic, it's very hard to part the image of CSY with JJH herself.

      Anyway, it's just a difference in opinion and no disrespect to yours.

    • I too DISAGREE! @queenceorin

      She has The Assassination movie. It isnt really a joseon sageuk but still it is a historical movie. JJH is a versatile actress. May it be drama, historical, melodrama, romantic comedy, modern day themed, any genre she can totally shine. She can slay it all.

      Same here, no disrespect with your opinion. Peace.

  • Waiting for this to release in netflix with yoojung’s movie The 8th night. It is also releasing on month of July ☺️

  • Slay it queen, slay!

    Just so excited for Giana Jun. The genre is one of my most faves and itssss on Netflix.

    Hooray!!!

  • Sad to say this but they could have chosen Son Ye Jin instead. She's the best and the prettiest. I don't find JJH appealing and her acting is very blend. Not to offend anyone too piece.

    • You are clearly trolling. JJH and SYJ are two of the best and most beautiful and versatile actresses in S.Korea. They don't need trolls like you to drag either of them down.
