I dropped season 1, but i would have watched season 2 just to see Jun-Ki in action sequences. But Alas, its Disney.

I have not watched the first season (which My drama list divides into three parts). It's been on my radar because the PD and the writers are a great team with very good dramas to their credit, but I know it got mixed reviews.

Btw, Lee Jun-ki looks amazing in that pic.

"but hopefully, Arthdal Chronicles: Aramun’s Sword will surpass its predecessor"

That's a pretty low bar, but...
... I really hope this one flops. As in the most expensive spectacular flop in kdrama history. There have been too many mediocre sequels to shows that didn't deserve ANY sequel, and I think only an expensive disaster will teach them that only GOOD shows deserve 2nd seasons.
Original Arsedal was not just bad, it was offensively bad, not just Vagabond-level so bad it's almost good. So unless DB feedback says everyone loves S2, I'm staying away.

But where is the horse?

So this season is about Excalibur and Eunseom is the new Arthur.

Tanya and Yangcha were the only thing that made me interested. Without Kim Ji-Won, it won't be the same...

Lee Jun-ki in this drama is causing me much anxiety. He could have gone back to "Goryeo Khitan Wars" and I'd happily watch it.
Oh well, looking forward to spamming the fan wall with his version of Saya.

Why does Lee Junki have to be here? I already lost interest in this show. Now I just have to watch him in period garb.

Boycott this madness.
*horsey hrumph*

I'm a huge fan of Lee Jun Ki so definitely checking this out. As long as this drama doesn't bore/frustrate me. I have dropped his dramas before (Ok, maybe one lol. But I haven't watched them all.)

The short teaser looks very fancy.

This... teaser, if you can even call it that, looks more like a generic fantasy game ad. It's supposedly airing in just a month, and that's the promo material they're trying to entice people to watch it with? Hmm... Then again, I'd be naive to expect better from The Mouse. Next time they'd better to focus on LJG, he's the only one who can try to salvage it at this point. And no, despite my harsh tone above I do NOT hate this project just for the sake of hating, I just believe he's too good for this in its current state. Hope the actual show proves me at least partially wrong... Whatever the result will be, it'd better to inspire him to return to sageuks for good - it's been so long since MLSHR, we've been SUFFERING!

I admit I attempted to watch the first ep of S1 but I struggled badly and gave up.

I can’t be the only one who is enjoying the first season. I think though it was quite slow, but the story was very authentic and pretty brilliantly written. The directing also pretty solid. And I said this as someone who rarely like fantasy. The only and a major complaint I have for season 2 is they change the actors who played Tanya and Eunseom. I think SJK and KJW played their character so well I don’t want them to be replaced. And to be honest, SSK’s acting isn’t my cup of tea. And one more complain. It takes to long to produce the second season.

Ooops...I defintely walked into the wrong room for the Aarthdal discussion. The knives are all out it seems by the comments...but I'm happily all in. I thought the Aarthdal-era backdrop was a fresh take on an historical period that's rarely done anymore (has anyone seen the wayyyyy old 1890's movie called "Quest For Fire"?). The sheer novelty of watching how a civilization slowly changes as a conquered tribe is forced to blend into the skein of its' conquerors way of life, building new connections and a more diverse culture. It fascinated me...yet also disappointed because series #1 never gave us the satisfaction of seeing the outcoe of the BIG battle for power at the 'non-ending'. I'd like to see season two, yet won't because Disney has the monopoly on it here. Sad.

Waiting on this show from 4 years. And they managed to get Lee Jun ki to star in this !!! He will be an excellent addition.
So the story starts 8-10 years after the season 1. Saaya just discovers about Eunsom - what happens to that.

I want to say I have complete trust in Teacher to make it good but all your comments make me lose my footing.
no, I am better than that. even if it is a downfall, I don´t care.
I´m team Joon Gi even if we are doomed.
all right. Teacher, fighting!

I don't care about the sword!
All I wish is Yangcha have a character arc that will side him with good!

The video looked like it was inspired by He-Man .
I have the power ! Does this show have a Skeletor level villain ?
It helps to have a decent supervillain.

ok one thing (maybe more than one, but probably hard to get answers to all) I dont understand: why is the chair on fire?

is this going to be just a drama to come together and ask intentionally stupid questions & memees and parodies cause it can be fun material to shoot some jokes

My husband and I really enjoyed season 1, even though my husband isn't really into K-dramas. I was really excited that it was renewed for a 2nd season, then I was extremely disappointed they were replacing 2 of the main leads. But I do enjoy Lee Jun-ki, so I'll give the 2nd season a try. But Disney +??? I'm not getting a subscription for Disney+. Should have just kept this on Netflix.

Arthdal Chronicles is by far one of my favorite TV series ever. The production, the writing, the acting, the costumes, the sets, everything is just so amazing.
I just finished rewatching season 1 to get prepped for season 2 and I cannot find it in Canada! I'm so disappointed. Even all the streaming services like Asian wiki, drama cool, kiss Asian Etc all say there's English subtitles but there aren't any English subtitles added to the episodes. 😭
I've gone through at least 15 different links LOL
Can someone please upload it with English subtitles. It would be greatly appreciated from this Canadian girl eh! 😘
