Sweet Home 2 promises a powerful story of how desire can turn humans into monsters as they battle other mysterious creatures. The trailer opens with Dr. Lim’s (Oh Jung-Se) line, “Mankind is a virus and the monsters are the vaccines.” Meanwhile, the sneak peek describes the main theme of the story – how humans driven by green can destroy other species, leading to their extinction.
The world has descended into chaos with an unprecedented monster apocalypse threatening human survival. The Green Home residents have barely escaped the apartment. They are gathered in a stadium, which is their new settlement. However, the brutal monster attacks have left them helpless, forcing them to fight their own battles. People also worry about turning into monsters.
Netflix revealed more details about the upcoming drama, Sweet Home 2. A military unit specialized in handling monsters is hired. The Crown Platoon, as they are called, is doing everything they can to kill the monsters and protect the humans. Furthermore, the trailer teases incredible cinematography as a girl child faces a monster up close, pleading to her mother to protect her.
In the next few scenes, Cha Hyun-Su struggles to witness the apocalypse as he is probably seeing many of his resident members injured or dead. He desperately looks for a vaccine that can end his monster instincts. He wants to become human. Hyun-Su meets Dr. Lim at the Bamseom Emergency Management Bureau, where research for a vaccine is underway.
The military unit is busy killing the monsters one by one. However, they realize that the monsters have only evolved this time around. Hyun-Su faces a fellow human turned monster Pyeon Sang-Wook (Lee Jin-Wook). Meanwhile, fellow residents understand the psyche that separates monsters and humans.
Dr. Lim asks Hyun-Su, “Would you be fine even if you had to die?” Hyun-Su explains that if he can sacrifice himself, it means that the apocalypse can come to an end. In the end, it is a battle between Hyun-Su as half-monster half-human, and Sang-Wook.
