Actor Hyun Bin teases more intense 2nd season of 'Made in Korea'

Actor Hyun Bin has teased a more intense second season of the hit Disney+ series Made in Korea. In the new season, which takes place in 1979, nine years after the first installment, the power game at the core of the story escalates. Baik Ki-tae, a government intelligence operative who also works as a drug dealer, and prosecutor Jang Keon-young, who returns after losing everything in the first season, are the central characters.

Hyun Bin, who portrayed Baik, said the second season delves deeper into the power struggle between the two protagonists. He emphasized that the second season follows a continuous narrative, which he believes will help audiences become more immersed in the series. Director Woo Min-ho agreed, stating that the continuity of the episodes makes the series more intense, likening season 2 to a real game between adults.

Jung Woo-sung, who plays prosecutor Jang, noted that the change in perspective, from real-life characters to fictional ones, allowed for more depth and freedom in portraying the characters. Hyun Bin also acknowledged the pressure of the first season's success but expressed his anticipation for the second season's release.
