Is Sweet Home worth watching?
Yes — Sweet Home is worth watching, holding a 78/100 Celluloid Editorial Rating and 79% Audience Snapshot on Celluloid. Its 74% Celluloid Score combines Celluloid editorial, Metascore (68), IMDb (7.2/10), and aggregated fan rating (76%), with audience sentiment shown separately.
Created by Hong So-ri, Kim Hyung-min, Park So-jung, Sweet Home ran 3 seasons, 26 episodes on Netflix in Korean, from South Korea. Sweet Home has ended, so you can watch the complete story without waiting on a renewal.
What is Sweet Home about?
Cha Hyun-su moves into the crumbling Green Home apartments after losing his family, intending to disappear quietly. Within days the building is sealed: across the country people are turning into monsters shaped by whatever they wanted most. The surviving residents — a gangster, a nurse, a firefighter, a bassist, a runaway soldier — barricade the lobby and start deciding who still counts as human, while Hyun-su changes into something that may be neither monster nor man.
Celluloid verdict: A genuinely nasty, lavishly mounted creature show whose monsters double as appetites — the first season is Korean genre TV at full budget, though the later runs swap claustrophobia for military plotting. The cast is led by Song Kang, Lee Jin-wook, Lee Si-young, Lee Do-hyun, Go Min-si, among others.
How many seasons of Sweet Home are there, and where do I start?
Sweet Home has 3 seasons, 26 episodes, and there is no reason to start anywhere but the first episode. At 3 seasons, 26 episodes, it is a manageable binge rather than a multi-year project. The series page breaks the 74% Celluloid Score into its four rating inputs plus the separate audience snapshot so you can see exactly where the rating inputs and audience snapshot differ before committing.
Where can I watch Sweet Home?
Sweet Home is carried by Netflix, though rights are licensed by territory and change often. Check the Netflix hub for everything else on the same service, and the series page for the regions where Celluloid has confirmed availability.
What should I watch after Sweet Home?
If it lands, try Goblin (89%), Kingdom (89%), Twinkling Watermelon (88%) next — same shelf, comparable scores. You can also browse all horror series, everything from South Korea, or the year it premiered.
