Goodbye Earth, the new South Korean drama series, debuts on Netflix on April 26, 2024, plunging viewers into a 200-day countdown to an asteroid's devastating impact on Earth.

Goodbye Earth, a Korean sci-fi series directed by Kim Jin-min and written by Jung Sung-joo, plunges us into an apocalyptic countdown. This 12-episode series explores the human reaction to the inevitable end of the world.

The announcement of an asteroid colliding with the Earth plunges the Korean peninsula, and by extension the world, into indescribable chaos. Between martial law, prison escapes, out-of-control cults and mass migrations to areas deemed safer, society collapses under the weight of fear and uncertainty.

In the midst of this chaos, Se-kyung (Ahn Eun-jin), a middle school teacher, is traumatized by the tragic death of one of her students. Despite the surrounding desolation and insurmountable challenges, she and the residents of Woongcheon, including her friends played by Yoo Ah-in, Kim Yoon-hye, and Jeon Seong-woo, cling to hope and the determination to make each remaining day a celebration of their humanity.

Goodbye Earth is not just a drama about the end of the world; the series promises deep reflection on what it means to be human in the most desperate of times. The series questions humanity's ability to maintain hope, love and solidarity in the face of the impending apocalypse.

Prepare to be transported on this emotional and dramatic adventure through humanity's final countdown on Netflix. "Today, tomorrow, and every day, we wait for the end. Together."
