He trusted his official advisers to mark him as dead in the official records as he and Seo-bi (Bae Doo-na) set off on a mission to find out who was responsible for starting the plague.
The pair found out the zombie disease was caused by a plant called the resurrection plant, which was being sold to common people around the country.
This led them on a journey to find who was responsible for doing this, heading into the Northern Provinces.
Here, they came across a secluded home filled with undead around every corner.
Then in the last few moments of the series the young woman who is seemingly the mastermind behind the plague turned around and revealed herself.
Nothing was revealed about who exactly she is or what her motives really are, leaving viewers in turmoil.
The only certainty is how her appearance at the end of the series has left viewers convinced the show will also be coming back for a third season.
Some fans have been speculating about who she could be on Reddit ahead of any news about the future of the show.
