Recently, Netflix shared new pictures of Jeon So-Nee, Goo Kyo-Hwan, Kim In-Kwon, and others from the yet-to-be-released Parasyte: The Grey. The drama is based on the popular manga series Parasyte by Hitoshi Iwaaki. The series also follows the same storyline as the manga. It narrates the events unveiled after a parasitic incident that infiltrates human beings. The parasitic life forms from outer space fall on Earth and start infecting humans to survive. However, not everyone can get infected.
Jeong Su-In (Jeon So-Nee) is a person who gets infected by a parasite, but for some reason, it can’t take over her brain. How the parasite co-exists with Su-In and how it affects others and the area forms the core of this drama.
