Vampire Prosecutor secures original cast for Season 2
by | January 11, 2012 | 87 Comments

javabeans: Woohoo, Season 2! Looks like it’s a go. They’re looking at this summer as a projected broadcast date.

girlfriday: And with the cast intact, yeah?

javabeans: According to this report, Yeon Jung-hoon and the Season 1 crew will be coming back.

girlfriday: Whew. Well that’s the only way to do it. This isn’t a show where you can carry over the concept and not the cast. What will our scooby gang do in Season 2?

javabeans: Hmm, according to one rep with the production team, since Season 1 focused on Tae-yeon’s past, Season 2 will go a different direction in bringing forth a strong rival.

girlfriday: I like that — the Big Bad in Season 1 was good in theory, but not in execution. We need way bigger baddies.

javabeans: Totally. And I actually thought that Season 1’s conflict got a lot more exciting when the antagonist was the law, rather than the vamp, so I want to see Tae-yeon come up against that kind of opposition.

girlfriday: Right? When he was up against the crack defense team. That was the best stuff.

javabeans: I’m already imagining a City Hunter vs Prosecutor sort of dynamic, except in this case he’s… the Prosecutor. But with a Prosecutor-like foe. Um, you know what I mean.

girlfriday: You mean someone to dog his every move, and be on the opposite side of the law?

javabeans: Exactly. Ooh ooh! Can Hottie Prosecutor become a City Hunter?

girlfriday: City Hunter’s Prosecutor or Vampire Prosecutor? Because there be a lot of hottie prosecutors around.

javabeans: I’m confused now.

girlfriday: You started it.

javabeans: And now I can’t take back this headache. [SPOILER FOR SEASON 1 FINALE] They’re not sure yet whether Tae-yeon’s sister will be dead or alive — er, undead — so that may or may not be figured into the new season. Aw, that’s so sad. She’s the one thing that can push Tae-yeon to the other side of the law, because I think he’s blind where she’s concerned.

girlfriday: I’d love it if they took him to the other side though, and gave him a moral crisis this time around.

javabeans: That would also give Jung-in (Lee Young-ah) a chance to be morally conflicted.

girlfriday: And a chance for Tae-yeon to give her morally-conflicted kisses.

javabeans: So. Hot. I need a minute to collect myself. Oh, and can there be lots and lots of petty sniping from Soon-bum, the jealous bro who refuses to be usurped by a love interest?

girlfriday: Yes please! They were the cutest couple of the year. Oh wouldn’t it be cute if they started Season 2 on the outs because he was already jealous, and Tae-yeon had to do embarrassing things to get the bromance back on track?

javabeans: And I want to see Soon-bum jealous of Dr. Blood, if we’re making up wish lists. He can be all exasperated: “The girl I could handle, but a vampire? How do I compete with that?”

girlfriday: I think Dr. Blood’s new nickname in Season 2 will be Dr. Hotpants.

javabeans: I don’t think that means what you think it means. ‘Cause now I’m picturing WHAM-era shorty shorts.

girlfriday: Well now I can’t undo that mental image.

javabeans: YOU started THAT.

girlfriday: So now we both have regrets.

javabeans: Regrets that only a super-awesome Season 2 can erase.

girlfriday: So get on that, Show.

    THIS JUST MADE MY DAY!

    • 1.1 joeydragonlady

      Mine too. I live this team…first of many seasons.

    • 1.2 ...

      me too… trying to write a philosophy essay, so this is a much needed brightener! WOOOOOOO :D

    • 1.3 drama4mama

      Apparently a bunch of us are not having fun days, this made me jump and down and cheer, so happy the drama gods love me!!

    • 1.4 Shukmeister

      I hope they kept as many behind-the-scenes people as well: writer, producer, etc.

      Really great news, though!

    • 1.5 Shiku

      Made my day too! Can’t August just get here already?

    • 1.6 nickynisa

      me too.. excited.. prosecutore min will be back!!! yay

  2. Jenny

    Wohoooooooooooo! Awesome, this just made my week. I haven’t been this obsessed with a vampire show since Moonlight (I was a huge Buffy and Angel fan to)
    The bromance was the cutest thing ever.

    • 2.1 pipit

      I’m on Buffy and Angel’s camp too BTW.

      But I love this vampire drama a lot and its original cast.

      Besides the almost hand touching things/ the actual hand touching plus the carrying the girl in his arms thing, I LOVE the last scence when our Vampire puts his head on our little prosecutor’s shoulder.

      There’s something about it that made me did a happy dance. That scence is so much better than most of the kissing scenes in other drama. Not that I don’t want to see our vampire kissing our little komsa. But I’m willing to wait for ages for that scene.

      I’m looking forward to see the reaction of our inspector once he realises that the love of his vampire is no longer reserved just for his sister but another little girl is slowly occupying his cold heart. Will he be happy or broken hearted?

      There’s many angles to bring everybody to the dark side. Our little komsa with her gangster father and of course her vampire collegue/love interest. Our vampire with his killer sister and his love for the daughther of a villain who happens to be his very straight partner. Our inspector with his tendency to avoid tough/hard choice. Our naive tech guy…..

      In short this show rocks and should last for many seasons just like the american shows.

      Eternity is too short.

      • 2.1.1 moon_light

        yeah, ryt…. i agree with you… :) ..

  3. sur

    oh wow looking forward to this one can’t wait :D

  4. ripgal

    This is the best news I’ve heard today! YIPPPEEEEEEEE~~~

    VP1 was a hit, no surprise they’re going full on with a 2!

  5. Ojou_Belle

    Soooo happpyyy! Thanks for the good news!

  6. Aly

    THAT FIRST PICTURE!

    Badass vampire prosecutor… and Hello Kitty?! O_O

    • 6.1 Brandi

      LOL – that’s what I was going to say! It looks like it was behind-the-scenes, though. Maybe Yeon Jung-hoon is into Hello Kitty …

    • 6.2 beggar1015

      The Hello Kitty also gave me pause, but now that I look at it again, I think it may be just a mirror being held up so YJH can do a double check of himself. Still, who uses a Hello Kitty mirror on a photo shoot?

  7. julianna

    yay!!! this is the best news so far! ^_^

  8. bishbash

    shared on facebook!! this is wonderful! best news in 2012! :D

  9. Kakashi

    YEEEEEEEES! make it summer, 빨리, 빨리!

    • 9.1 bim2

      Yippie~! It’s summer, not in winter. I don’t like to see our hottie prosecutor got cough because cold season ^^

      At least, we don’t have to wait full one year for season 2. Don’t cha? ^^

      • 9.1.1 Mystisith

        Winter is not convenient. How can you bite people’s neck when they wear thick sweaters and scarwes ? But it could be funny if someone in the team comes to learn about Tae Yeon’s condition and then gets paranoid. Imagine the maknae wearing heavy clothes in august, sweating like a pig just to save his life. Now our prosecutor suggesting him innocently to disrobe so to be comfortable. I’m laughing by myself just thinking about this. JB and GF, Just add this to my wish list will you. :)

  10. 10 La petite

    I’m so looking forward to season 2. I also love that YJH is primping in front of a hello kitty mirror in the first picture.

  11. 11 jojo

    Great news! Can’t wait!

  12. 12 Arhazivory

    I squealed. And I’m not even done on the first season yet. VP is just so excellently done and the cast dynamic is so wonderful. :D

  13. 13 Fab

    So I have until summer to finish the fist season. XD
    I love me vampire prosecutor but somehow never got to finish it…

    YJH *swoooooooooooooon*

  14. 14 Mystisith

    I love you girls !!! You made my day / week / month… at least. This is my most anticipated show fpr 2012. So many possibilities, so many good characters. I agree, i wouldn’t have been so excited if they would have changed the team : They can investigate on stolen bikes as far as i’m concerned. JB and GF : Please leave my Bloody Bartender alone : I will be in charge of his clothing if you don’t mind :)
    Wishlist ? I’m working on it. Should buy paper sheets to print it. A lot of them.

    • 14.1 diorama

      “Investigate on stolen bikes” LOL. I just had this mental picture of our team super-seriously pedaling along in search of clues.

      Oh, I can’t wait for summer.

    :)

    • 21.1 Linda165

      “Mr. Hot Package” Now THAT’s a mental image. Thanks Cynthia!

  22. 22 Yumi

    You know you both are awesome, right?!
    RThe show is on my to watch list and even though I know nothing much about the story, I LOVED YOUR CONV!!
    You girls rock!!!!

  32. 32 Poetry_Lyric

    Hi Everyone,

    I was hesitant to watch Vampire Prosecutor, but I’m glad I did. I just hope Season 2 will be a strong as Season 1.

    I feel that the advantage of dramas with only one season is that they never run the risk of falling into a predictable pattern.

    However, Vampire Prosector had a shorter season to begin with–I don’t think it will hurt the show.

    Best,

    Poetry_Lyric

  33. 33 classied

    /SCREAMING. this people are my favorite ensemble cast EVER.

  34. 34 Kstyle

    YAY!!!! Thank you Drama gods. I love this show!!! One of the best shows hands down ever!!!

    So excited, now if only City Hunter would take the hint and get on board the sequel edition then my world would be set.

    Let’s see VP, CH (please please please come back) and Mickey in one year then idk my heart would be able to take it!!! :)

  35. 35 koreamom

    made my day! I.CAN”T.WAIT.!!! but i guess we will have to. but there are a lot of others waiting too so we are not alone!

  36. 36 Linda165

    Are you telling me Mr. Hot Stuff Slick Vamp Prosecutor primps himself in a Hello Kitty mirror??? I DIE!!!!!!

    And of course I’m soooo there!!! Second season woot woot!!

  37. 37 Suzi Q

    OMO! Loved Season 1. I hope the second season will be as great as the first. One of my favorites!!! Hooray! It’s coming back. Just can’t wait!!!!!!

  38. 38 luci8le

    You just made my day !
    I’m currently re-watching season one and every episode (until today) I was hoping for a second season !
    Now I can’t wait for this summer :)

  39. 39 calannie

    LOL i just SQUEALED :) and my son said what the hell is your problem.. AHHH im sooo excited WOOT

  40. 40 Mai

    So Damn Excited!!! Now, all we need is City Hunter 2 and 2012 will be the best year ever for me!!! I’m so happy they secured the original cast, otherwise it would suck. This time I hope they give our leads some romance *wink* since Season 1 already paved the way for them to be more than just friends.

  41. 41 Ivy

    yayyyy! best news ever…so very glad the original cast is in it. I can’t wait!

  42. 42 Verónica

    I think this was set up from the get go, they wouldn’t advertise a second season at the end of the final ep knowing everyone wouldn’t be in the series. This is one of those dramas that has a lot to go from, we barely knew our investigative team, and they can keep adding more of the vampire storyline forever! But yes, BEST NEWS EVER!!!!!!! :D

  43. 43 canxi

    YAAAAY! Happy and excited!!!! I’ll need cool Tae-yeon to beat the NYC heat. (Ughhh, I didn’t mean for that to rhyme so much.)

    I really want Dong-man to have more of a story,though. What’s the happs with the adorable forensics intern hmmmmm????? There must be more. We know a little about Tae-Yeon and Jung-In, but what about the rest of the team.

    Will we ever get an explanantion for why Sun-Bom knows he’s a vampire?? HMMM?

    And Dr. HotBlood, what’s up with him?? *slight spoiler* Is he a vampire now…? Is he still a little mad-scientist-y? So many things I want to know!

  44. 44 mrskimchee

    Wohoooo!!!!!!
    Just finished marathon this over the weekend!

    LOVE IT!!!!!
    bite me Mr. Prosecutor!!!!

  45. 45 Abbie

    YES! This is the best news all week! The summer is good because then I won’t have to wait until fall. I still need to watch the last two episodes in season 1! So I better get on that!

    Also, are ALL the old team members coming back?

  46. 46 sangay

    wow, great news, really great great news :D

    hmm, new direction for season 2 too.

  47. 47 maris sosa

  48. 48 crazedlu

    i feel it’s an insult to put vamipire prosecutor on the same level as city hunter. shutters.*

    • 48.1 crazedlu

      and apparently my spelling abilities are shudder worthy too. urgh. -_-;

      • 48.1.1 canxi

        Hahaha, everyone makes mistakes! But, I agree with you

  49. 49 baesbabe
