SEOUL, Feb. 9 (Korea Bizwire)The coming-of-age zombie apocalypse drama “All of Us Are Dead” retained the No. 1 position on Netflix’s weekly viewership chart for the second consecutive week, the global video streaming service said Wednesday.

It made the top 10 of the non-English TV category in 94 countries over the one-week period and ranked No. 1 in 63 countries, including the United States, Britain and South Korea.

Netflix said “All of Us Are Dead” rose to fifth place on the all-time viewership chart for non-English TV programs, with a cumulative 361 million hours of streaming in the first 10 days of release.

The Korean sensation “Squid Game” tops the list with an aggregate 1.65 billion hours of viewing over the first four weeks, followed by the Spanish crime series “Money Heist: Part 4″ with 619 million hours, “Money Heist: Part 3″ with 426.4 million hours and “Money Heist: Part 5″ with 395.1 million hours.
