That's because the only foreign horror movies that you've heard about are good ones; it's selection bias in full force. It's the same reason why a lot of people think that older music is better, because they aren't currently subjected to the thousands of crappy songs that aired back then, and thus they only remember the good ones.

No badasses military men, no zombie slayers, just an average young man’s experience to survive an apocalypse. His safe space, his HOME is no longer safe. It’s a super refreshing zombie film.

This movie is just beautiful. It really captures the dark, violent part of human behaviour. It makes you feel for the characters, and very few movies were able to do that in recent years. And that ability directors can make actually makes the movie itself better 100%. And what I mean by it making you feel for the characters I mean that when they have feelings of joy, you feel it. When they are in moments of despair, you feel it. That's what good horror movies make them good horror movies.

Actually, from my experience being south east asian i can tell you a few things that may have lead to the Eastern Zombie Genre. Up until recently most people on the far east despised the idea of putting death and/or undeath in media. Death of any kind is heavily censored in media outside of news reports and obituaries cos of the negative stigma surrounding spreading news of death. It has taken YEARS of slow wear and tear on the "traditional" view of death in countries like China and South Korea by the new generation to allow for zombies to be part of their entertainment.
