Netflix is having plenty of success with the release of its latest K-Drama series and movies. What with the runaway success of Squid Game and the terrifying new horror, Hellbound, fans are clamoring for more.

Netflix Asia recently released a trailer for the latest Korean sci-fi thriller series, The Silent Sea. The caption to the trailer is chilling in itself. It reads, “An abandoned lunar base. A mission with a 10% survival rate. One by one, crew members end up dead.”

Plot of the new sci-fi thriller

Netflix’s latest venture into Korean drama series looks pretty exciting and will drop on December 24. If you have had enough of the usual Christmas TV fare by then, this exciting series will be the perfect watch on Christmas Eve.

The series The Silent Sea is based on the short film The Sea of Tranquility, written by director Choi Hang-Yong. However, the series will expand on that short film’s premise. In fact, it will center on a dystopian future where space travel becomes essential due to climate change.
