[Theme of the Month] What dramas need a sequel?

182 July 1, 2018June 30, 2018

by javabeans

Although dramaland has been giving us more sequels in recent years than it has historically done, K-dramas are still not a format that is wont to produce additional seasons, no matter how the fans clamor or how much the material seems ripe for further exploration. Of course, even in those rare cases, it’s an even rarer event that a new season can reproduce the magic of the initial one, so just because we get a sequel doesn’t mean it’s what we wanted (…I’m lookin’ at you, IRIS).

But that doesn’t stop us from wishing, dreaming, and sometimes fanfic-writing our own ideas for subsequent adventures featuring our favorite casts and fictional worlds, and now’s your chance to share.

What drama do you think needs another season, and what plot would those additional episodes feature?

To submit:

Email your submissions to hello@dramabeans.com. If you have a registered Dramabeans account, include your handle so we can link to it.
Include at least 1 image, though more is preferred.
Suggested length: Between 500 and 1,000 words.
Deadline: We will post these on a rolling basis, so we’re taking submissions now. We will cut off accepting submissions on July 26. If you miss this month, join us for a new theme next month!

How about seasons 2 & 3 of The Three Musketeers that we were promised (but only if they don't kill off Crown Prince So Hyun).

My list will be very subjective! I really hope someone will write about them.............
1. I remember you - Hello Monster: for the obvious reasons: we need to catch the criminal, and see how love nurture back Min into his Hyung's arm! Maybe Min can join the "Bad guys" team in order to get out a bit earlier... And I need sassy Jang Na Ra back!!!!!!!!
2. I hear your voice: I need to know how Park Soo Ha play his role as cop and fight criminals. I need to know how "Jiang" Hye Sun overcomes her shyness in their relationships and how successful she is in being a public defender. I need to know if Do Yeon and Gwan Woo end up together.
3. Reply 1997: made it to this list cos I love it too much, maybe they air uncut clips or anything from the drama as a sequel, it's ok, I will watch them all over again!
4. You who came from the stars: My recent addict, just need to know how Do Min Joon not being taken away by Nasa and get locked up in science labs. I keep thinking about it! Anyway, I just want a sequel of 2 or 4 more episodes where they show us better how his space travel can be done. And I want to see how our super star Chun Song Yi cope with being old next to an foever young Do Min Joon. AND if they are able to have KIDS, you know what I really want to know, right?
5. Jo Dal Ho Neighboring lawyer: another legal hero drama that sounds to me like Spiderman going against the rich!
6. Forests of secret: Forests, not one tree, must be more! Actually I don't know if they are able to create such dark and heavy mood drama on political one more time, if they can not do it, then don't make a sequel of this drama.

None of them would be my answer. I am kinda tired of the endless seasons burned to death by the U.S shows. And if the shows do not as successful as they want, fan will be left in limbo with their shows being discontinued without a proper conclusion

Switch 2, but with more cons and less legal stuff. The con team was totally underutilized imho.

OH and also Sungkyunkwan Scandal 2. You know how it ends with that glimpse into the future---what they're doing, the school's progression, etc? I wanted more of that!

All those who preferred a sequel to BTIMFL must have been happy to see it. Actually we were already seeing it - WWWSK. Yesterday I was at my wit's end. 🤣🤣

Happy drama watching

I am late to the party but might as well offer my 2fer. My proposal would be a simultaneous sequel for 2 dramas. Here goes.
When Lee Min-ho and Ji Chang-wook finish their Army commitments I would like them to star together in a new drama: HEALER MEETS CITY HUNTER.
