What is Surviving the Apocalypse?
“Surviving the Apocalypse” is a Korean manhwa series that combines action, drama, fantasy, and survival horror elements. Published on Naver Webtoon in 2024, the series is both written and illustrated by Song.
Set in a world on the brink of apocalypse, the story follows a mysterious protagonist who has spent his entire life imprisoned underground by his own father. The manhwa explores dark themes of survival, abuse, human nature, and the struggle for freedom in the face of an impending catastrophic end.
With its gritty atmosphere, psychological depth, mature content including cannibalism and human livestock themes, and intense survival scenarios, the series appeals to fans of dark fantasy and post-apocalyptic manhwa who appreciate morally complex narratives.
Plot Overview
“When the apocalypse comes, the world will be ridden with bloodshed and screams of anguish. In the end, none but ashes will remain.” These words echo through the mind of a man who knows nothing of the world beyond his prison walls.
He has been locked away in an underground cell for as long as he can remember—his entire existence confined to darkness and isolation. He does not know his own name, stripped of even that basic identity. He does not know if the prophesied apocalypse will truly come to pass, or when it might arrive to consume the world above.
The only certainty in his bleak existence is the bitter truth of his imprisonment: he has been locked away by his own father. As the outside world teeters on the edge of catastrophe, questions arise that may determine his fate. Will he escape his underground prison before the apocalypse begins? What secrets does his father hide? And when the end finally comes, will his years of confinement prove to be his salvation—or his doom?
