Signal Season 2: Will it happen?
Unfortunately, there has been no official update or word regarding season two of Signal. Following the massive amount of love and support it received from fans, it’s only natural that fans have been earnestly demanding a second season of the sci-fi fantasy Korean drama ever since the first season came out in 2016.
Well, it looks like all hope is not lost. During an interview, screenwriter Kim Eun-hee revealed “Honestly, I didn’t make this drama with seasons in mind. But since it’s the kind of storyline that can continue for multiple seasons, it would be an honor if they decided to make another one.”
But if they did it, it would have to be done properly,” she added. “A second season would only be meaningful if the three actors [Jo Jin Woong, Kim Hye Soo, and Lee Je Hoon] were to return. If they can make their schedules work, I’d like to work with them and director Kim Won Seok again.”
“Nothing has been discussed yet,” she summed up. “But because it’s not impossible, I keep thinking about it.”
When is Signal Season two getting released?
The creators have not yet revealed a specific release date for Signal Season two. Nonetheless, if we go by the speculations, the sequel is facing unexpected delays due to the Coronavirus outbreak. But now that things are gradually getting better, the sequel might go into pre-production soon.
The signal is available for viewing on the streaming platform, Netflix. It includes a total of 16 episodes with an average 40-minute running time. If you have not watched it yet, do it right away. We are sure you won’t be disappointed.
Will Signal Season 2 Air? Here’s what director Kim Won-seok has to say…
The actors and creators of the series Signal have not announced a second season yet; however, some encouraging updates suggest a revival. In a recent interview, the show’s lead, Lee Je-hoon, claimed he would do a second season. He enjoyed working on the show and thought there was more story to tell. He added he would love to see his castmates again if a second season is made.
Kim Won-Seok, the show’s director, also wants a second season and mentioned that he had sequel ideas and would work on them if the chance arose. However, certain obstacles could impede Signal Season 2. The show was expensive to make; therefore, the studio may not make a second season. Also, the show’s principal actress, Kim Hye-soo, is busy with other projects and may be unable to return.
Overall, Signal Season 2 seems likely, but there haven’t been any formal announcements. We will watch for Signal Season Two renewal developments and let you know—stay tuned!
What is the possible Plot of signal season two?
At this point, we have no precise plot synopsis of Signal season two. Despite that, its predecessor gives us enough hints as to what might follow in the future episodes. The opening scene of Signal portrays a 15-year-old child abduction case, in which a female kid was kidnapped and killed by an 8-month-pregnant woman. Park Hae Young, the series’ core character discovers a walkie-talkie that connects her with Lee Jae-Han, a former detective. The duo along with Cha Soo-hyun goes around solving a series of cold crime cases that have remained a mystery. Its gripping plot keeps viewers hooked till the end. If a sequel ever arrives, what would be its plot? It depends upon the series writer, Kim Eun-hue, who intends to write its second part before she leaves her profession. As of now, let’s say it will include several spine-chilling criminal plots.
Who is in the Cast of Signal Season two?
Sadly, it is known yet who will appear in the cast of Signal season two. However, we could expect that the core cast of Signal season one possibly returns to the series. Lee Je-hoon as Park Hae-young (the criminal profiler), Kim Hye-soo as Cha Soo-hyun, and Cho Jin Woong as Lee Jae-Han. The series also featured guest roles from time to time. With that, season two of Signal may also consist of special appearances, but this is more speculation.
The signal is created by Choi Jin-hee along with Park Ji-young. Kim Won-Seok has directed all the episodes of the series, which turned out amazing.
Tvn is the original distributor of the series. And Signal is streaming on Netflix for international audiences.
