Squid Game 2 To Extraordinary Attorney Woo 2, Netflix Renews 7 K-Dramas For 2024!
It’s the Soju’o clock for K-drama lovers as Netflix remains committed to contributing to the ongoing Hallyuwave. The streaming giant has renewed as many as seven dramas, promising to bring some of its wildly popular hits back. In 2023, viewers saw a redemption arc in Korean dramas after a relatively mundane last year, and 2024 is already off to a promising start.
From The Glory 2 to Sweet Home 2 and Taxi Driver 2 to Strong Girl Nam-soon, 2023 was a year of remakes. With 2024 shaping up as a strong year for K-dramas as Netflix promises to keep the entertainment rolling, it’s interesting that the streaming giant has introduced a franchise culture for K-dramas, a rare phenomenon in the Hallyuwood. Now, your favorite dramas are not limited to just 16 episodes, which will be instrumental in the character growth of side characters, as limited series often turn out to be a hindrance in exploring the other side of the story.
So, any guesses on which dramas have been renewed by the streaming giant? The biggest surprise on the list for us has to be Extraordinary Attorney Woo 2. Sweet Home 3 and Hellbound 2 are also on the cards, while All of Us Are Dead will be returning for a second installment, too. Signal 2 and Squid Game 2 will also roll out in 2024, while it was recently announced that Weak Hero Class 2 will be produced by Netflix after the critical success of the first season, which premiered on Wavve.
