Season 2 of the Netflix series 'Hell' visits viewers with an expanded worldview and new characters. There are concerns and concerns about whether Kim Sung-chul will be able to fill the void of Yoo Ah-in, who left a strong impression in season 1, and whether the new season will continue the success story of his previous work.

On the morning of the 21st, a production presentation for the second season of the Netflix series 'Hell' was held at Marriott JW Dongdaemun in Dongdaemun-gu, Seoul. Actors Kim Hyun-joo, Kim Sung-chul, Kim Shin-rok, Im Sung-jae, Moon So-ri, Moon Geun-young and Yeon Sang-ho, and Choi Kyu-seok attended the meeting.

Season 2 of Netflix 'Hell' depicts a world that has become more confused by the continuous notice of hell, and the story of Sodo's lawyer Min Hye-jin, Saejin-hoe, and arrowhead forces becoming newly entangled over the sudden revival of Chairman Jung Jin-soo and Park Jung-ja.



Director Yeon Sang-ho described the theme of season 2 as "fight between people trying to set their own principles in confusion" and said he portrays the confrontation between the angel's notice and the lion's demonstration in a world where it is commonplace.

Choi Kyu-seok describes a society where the government loses its power and the Saijin-rihoe and arrowhead forces exert real influence on Season 2," he said, stressing the difference from season 1. The two creators expressed confidence that `this season will attract viewers with a more intense and unpredictable development.'

This season, Kim Sung-chul newly joined as Jung Jin-soo. Jung Jin-soo is a character played by Yoo Ah-in in season 1, and Kim Sung-chul depicts a multi-layered character living in fear and confusion after the revival. He pondered how to express Jung Jin-soo, who had lived under the weight of fear for eight years"After the revival, I tried to capture the fear of being pressed and chased in my eyes." he said. Kim Seong-cheol revealed that he was a fan of Season 1, adding that he was `happy to be with the coach.'

Moon Geun-young makes an unconventional transformation by appearing as a key figure in the fanatic group arrowhead 'Sunshine Teacher'. She said "I've dressed up so much that I don't even recognize myself"He excitedly played a charming character given by director Yeon Sang-ho. Moon Geun-young, who returned to the drama after a long time, said, `There were many episodes on the set with the same makeup as a stunt actor," he said, explaining the pleasant atmosphere of the scene.



Moon So-ri newly joined as Lee Soo-kyung, senior secretary for political affairs. He described the person who followed the logic of the system as a decent villain"I tried to draw a contrasting figure who was nature-friendly but not well-intentioned on the inside." Regarding his relationship with director Yeon Sang-ho, Moon So-ri said, `At first, I didn't think it would fit, but it was a perfect match," he said, expressing his expectations for season 3.

Kim Shin-rok returned as Park Jung-ja, who made a strong impression in season 1. She revealed "A character who experiences hell in real time, acting so as not to look like a visionary who gave everything up." At the time of the first shooting, Kim Shin-rok said, "Thanks to the director's bold direction, I was able to act with confidence," he said, expressing the enthusiasm of the scene.

Kim Hyun-joo reappears as Min Hye-jin's lawyer following season 1. She is grateful to be able to do a piece twice on a season basis"I'll be able to visit you with better works," he said, asking for expectations.

Lim Sung-jae, who first witnessed the resurgent Jung Jin-soo, was a fan who enjoyed watching Season 1, but he never imagined that he could work together"I was happy to join season 2 with a role I really wanted to challenge."

Season 2 of 'Hell' will unfold unpredictably, focusing on the emergence of the resurrectionists and the conflict between the Saesjinrihoe, arrowheads, and the government.

In this regard, coach Yeon Sang-ho expressed confidence in the charm of season 2, saying, `I wanted to move in a new direction rather than carrying the success of season 1 on my back.' He also added that with the development of VFX technology, the realization of the lion will be closer to the original cartoon.

Meanwhile, season 2 of 'Hell' will be released on Netflix on the 25th.
