I don't specially like second seasons but I was waiting for Vampire Prosecutor one!

Otherwise, I would like a sequel with the sisters of One Spring Night, overall the big sister who raises her child alone and get rid of her husband, and of Unfamiliar Family with the big sister and Kwon Yul's romance and his mum being a great MIL!

I think it would be interesting to have the same concept of The Package, with a new country and a new group of tourists.

Sometimes, I don't wish a season but just one episode to get a real end, like in Heartless City and Awaken with the "mystery" of the death of the ML or Tomorrow to see the ML in the world of the living because these dramas just gave us a little piece of hope.

I can only quote @kafiyah-bello's genius here in a recent comment about Numbers:

LMAO, it was so bad, can't wait for season 2.

Exactly. Numbers 2: Saving the global economy, one elevator conversation at a time.

Vagabond!
It's not so much that it was a "masterpiece" and I'm not waiting for it since I don't think it's gonna happen but the ending made it *seem* like there was supposed to be more. After some time, I just considered it a "how we got here" story but still, if you actually watch it, it does leave you feeling like what the hell? Where's the rest of it?!
And it can also induce delirious laughter because of the balliness of starting a series with the final scene.

I honestly don't even know if I would trust a sequel. I don't know how many shows have had multiple seasons but the first one that came to mind was Taxi Driver. I watched both seasons and while S2 was pretty much a smash hit and had good performances, it was still missing that spark that made S1 better. But that could be a matter of perference. In universe, the characters are in a better place mentally & emotionally and that's a good thing but I also think S2 leaned a skotch more towards levity in part because of that. Again, not necessarily a bad thing but it's just something I always thought when watching.

D.P.2, I don't know what "went wrong" there because from what I remember, it was truly a continuation of the established world. Nothing was miraculously changed or solved but it just wasn't satisfying as S1 (from what I remember). The most interesting deserter was the singer. That was THE most affecting story in the entire season. The character and actor were the standouts (sidenote: that actor is gonna be in Weak Hero Class 2 and I *think* it's in part because of his performance here even though the characters are totally different)

I'm on team Hotel Blue Moon 😀

Grid. I know that some dramas end with a cameo of solid actors that makes you wish for a second season, like Kim Soo-hyun taking over Man-wool's job in Hotel Del Luna. I'm very sure a number of beanies and viewers would love lurve to see a second season with Kim Soo-hyun headlining the cast.

Grid gave a last minute cameo of Yoo Jae-myung(villainous I presume) and an intro into the universe of time travelling lady.
I know writer Lee Soo-yeon has written a second season before a la Stranger so I'm hoping there'll be news soon. But with Dominant Species in the works, I don't know if I should bide Grid 2 goodbye.

A second season of Insider.
A second season of Strangers Again? where I pray they right the wrongs they failed to straighten out in the first season.

Liar Game! Screams into the void. I mean, I know this one is never going to happen, but still . . .

I won’t mind Forest of Secrets / Stranger S3. It’s a series where S2 is equally great as S1.

In real life, when can they deliver Kingdom S3 that was promised like three years ago?

I wish there would be a second season or sequel to TOMORROW where Rowoon returns to the Crisis Management team.

TOMORROW is such an underrated drama. If it was a Hollywood production, they'd be on season 4 by now because the premise is a good set-up for a ton of stories that can comment on social issues.

_ Memories of Alhambra.
_ Signal.
_ My unfamiliar family.
_ Reset (spin-off starred by Lu Di).
_ Live up to your name (that epilogue was promising).
_ Yumi's cells 3.

My Liberation Notes. I want to see Chang Hee as a funeral director and have some Six Feet Under like stories. Mr. Gu needs to sober up and figure out how to liberate his life from the club life. Mi Jeong and Mr. Gu could see if they could actually be a couple or if his alcoholism would get in the way. The sequel could explore the older sister's potential step mom story too. But mostly, I want to see Lee Minki play a funeral director because there would be a lot to do with that.

Pachinko ? There is a 2nd season , if they’d just air the blasted thing. 🤔

I want a season two of The Matchmakers featuring the Maeng sisters' married life and Soon-deukband Jung-woo's matchmaking journeys.
A drama about Yi-chan and Chung-ah's college days is also welcomed.

The Fiery Priest. They promised they would be back, and I'm still waiting! There were rumours that it might really happen, I really hope so.
Then Signal, of course. The ending of it seemed as if a second season was already in the making, but apparently not...or post-production really takes some time. 😉
I'd love a second season of Through the Darkness, too.
And I'd love a second season / spin off of Search:www where we can follow the lives of the second couple. They were so adorable!

I want a second season of Chief Kim showing Seo Yul's journey back to an honourable life, and love, and Chief Kim tackling different cases of exposing the rich in thd most hilarious ways.

Circle, Circle, CIRCLE. I want a sequel that explodes all the implications of that last minute into a whole series, explores who and what Jung-yeon really is, and gives Woo-jin a proper love line and a chance to find out what his second(?) life means - with the production budget and cast it deserves.

Vagabond - I want some kind of resolution

Song of the Bandits - I don't really need a Season 2, just the director's cut of Season 1.

Not really. My reason for getting into K-drama was really its one season format after getting burnt by multi season shows that most often than not could never wrap gracefully.

Be it good, bad, or ugly. I will take it as it is and be done with it rather than watch it dying slowly over multiple seasons.

The only one I can think of is honestly Song of the Bandits. That drama could have been so good and interesting, and I totally had fun watching 90% of it, but by the end it just seemed so ridiculously unfinished. I read somewhere that it was cut down to nine episodes from an original planned 20 which, if true, is wild. And totally makes the rushed ending and lack of characterization make more sense. I guess really what I want is just a slightly longer, richer story from the first season, but it also felt like an unsatisfying place to leave the story, so I’d be open to a second season for this one.

I'm still so angry with the final episodes and ending of I AM NOBODY so there's that. But I don't recall any other drama I'd like a second season of. The one season format is my major reason for watching.

The ending of "Move to Heaven" seemed to be setting up the next season, and I think its episodic format would lend itself well to another, short season.

Not so much for a second (or, technically, third) season, but "Alchemy of Souls" could certainly launch a spin-off season or two within that universe with occasional cameos from Jang Uk and Naksu.

So excited to read everyone's comments here! The first one that came to mind for me after the obvious Signal was Missing Noir M. It was a great show and felt like it ended too abruptly. Others I want a second season for are:

School Nurse Files
Daily Dose of Sunshine
Birthcare Center (a spinoff with new cast but the same place)
Dark Hole (either a cop show featuring our two leads or another mysterious disaster with monsters. Either one. I'm there :))

Hotel del Luna
Alchemy of Souls
Gyeongseong Creature (which IS getting a second half, rather than a sequel, as I see it)
Extraordinary Attorney Woo
My Name
Our Blues
Quartet (I want to see what the next chapter is for the Japanese quartet)
School Nurse Files
Taxi Driver (already two series)
The Fiery Priest (which I hear is getting a sequel)
The Makanai
Vagabond (ended mid story. When are we going to get the rest?)
Vincenzo
Violent Action (totally daft and in turns genius and totally amateurish, but I loved it)
Coffee Prince (I have a soft spot for this older series, particularly for the main actress, whom I would like to have a chance to relive this magical moment in her life and restore some of her lost innocence).

So many others, but hard to think of a hook to continue them.

For the record, I'm generally squarely in the camp of One and Done and think that most sequels currently being made should have been left on the whiteboard where they belong.

Having made the appropriate disclaimer...

Oh please please drama Gods, give us a second season of Skunk sorry Stealer: Treasure Keeper. (Although I have to give the show props for parodying Healer and then literally alluding to it in its own name).

Let's get the band back together! Let's take down the bad guy! Let's have hijinks! Let's have kissing!

Oh dear, I said typed that out loud.

The others have already been mentioned and that is Grid, although I'm still not sure if she intended to write a second season or wanted us to be left with the ambiguity of it all. Nonetheless, if anybody can write it, it's Lee Soo-yeon. In Writernim we trust.

Finally, it's Circle. Although I'm not sure we need an entire second season, maybe a film. Although if that happened it would invalidate all my wilder interpretations of the show.

Circle is so cheap and so niche that it could easily be remade with a bigger budget and more episodes, although if that happened it might lose its chaotic, low-budget charm. A movie sequel would probably be best.

This might be a controversial take and answer, but for me, I’m always waiting for a second season of “Scarlett Heart: Ryeo”. Sure, the writing was a bit all over the place; Sure, not everyone who was a character needed to be a character; Most of all, there was lots of miscasting. Yet, because the OTP was just so, so, so, so good, they are reason enough for me to want a Season 2. I want to be able to see Lee Ji Eun (IU, but she’s credited under her real name for the drama, so I’ll go with that) and Lee Joon Gi doing well together in a new lifetime— being happy, and getting all that their love story deserves. More so than anything, I want to be able to see Hae Soo have the happy life that she so deserves, because she was everything to everyone but hardly anyone was ever there for her (something that I feel the Korean version captured more and more beautifully than the OG Chinese version, which painted the FL to be more selfish). And I mean, who doesn’t want to see Lee Joon Gi & IU do another drama together?? 🥰🥰😍😍

When THE FIERY PRIEST ended with a bold promise of a sequel, I was sooo hyped for it... but then writer's next drama *cough* VINCENZO *cough* happened and my enthusiasm took a huge dive. I'm not that sure anymore that it would be able to reach that level again, let alone aim higher. Seems like we're getting the one after all, so let's wait and see.

THE GUEST movie likely won't happen anymore, which is sad, I though it was a neat idea.

Not the season 2 per se, but when HYENA and SUITS (SK version) were on air, I repeatedly said I'd watch 50+ episodes of them in a heartbeat. Dream on lol)))

When it comes to polarizing shows where I love some parts and loathe others, I'm firmly in the "nope" camp. More of an undercooked meal is still just an undercooked meal.

Kingdom S3. It has been foreeeeevvvver since there were news about this third season.

I want to see a rom com sequel where they transition to coping with family life and having a small child and a baby. The OTP are exhausted, the in-laws are meddling and the FL is struggling with juggling work, family, and her changing relationship with the ML. I feel like A Business Proposal could do this. The ML was supposed to be so competent. What happens when a baby throws him off his game. I’d actually be interested to see what My Demon would do with this. I would cut out all the serial killer stuff and just see how they would do with a baby. Is the baby human or demon? Do they try to keep the child grounded in the real world or use magic (conflict ensues). Also, what happens as everyone ages except the ML?

There are plenty multi-season shows i love, but usually i am really statisfyed with a single wrapped season which happens often in kdrama. But there are still a few kdrama were i really want to see more content.

Signal (probably a pick for many, there has been talk for years of making a season 2...)

Through the Darkness (it's probably a little tricky since they were adapting true crime cases and a book, but i would love seeing these characters with new stories)

Inspector Koo (this was such a fun show, i loved how creative the cinemaphotography was. There were still plenty questions open for a second season and i loved the cast so much, i want to know more about them. Also, female serial killers are so rare in kdrama, i want to see more of this!!)

Move to Heaven (cried through all ten 10 episodes, would love to cry through another 10 👍. They already teased a second season in the season finale and we have plenty of rushed plot-points that they could use for season 2. )

Train (i just loved how interesting the sci-fi concept was, you would probably do and infinete amount of seasons since we are travelling parallel universes here lol)

Moving (or well, rather the extended universe of the moving webtoon artist. He adapted his moving webtoon and Plans to adapt his other works, i hope that works out for him. It's a little tricky since many of his previous works don't feature characters from moving but instead introduce new ones, this could disappoint the kdrama fans, but you need them introduced if he wants to eventually adapt the moving sequel, since characters from all his works play a part there)

Of course, how could i forget, were is the sequel and prequel to Strangers from Hell?? I remember years ago they promised they would adapt those in the kdrama format, but somehow i am still stuck here reading the badly google-translate translated webtoons.

Extraordinary Attorney Woo (really happy season 2 was announced but it will take a few years since one of the actors is doing his military service. I want to see more of the FL's brother! I liked his young actor since the King of Pigs. Attroney Woo hasn't a perfect autism representation at all, i think it has quite a few flaws with it, introducing more autistic characters would probably help the show for the better. They hinted that the FL's mother and brother might also be on the autism spectrum, i hope they explore that next season)

Wow, i actually managed to find quite a lot of shows that i want a second 2 off.

There are a few more with "open ending" that i watched (Mouse, the Kidnapping Day, the Killing Vote) but i don't need a second season at all. I think teasing more/leafing some stuff open can sometimes be fitting to the story without it needing a second season (A few unanswered keep the fandom and discussions alive from my experience lol) It's like a version of the "and they lived happily ever after" you know which direction the characters lives will take...

I'm still tormented by the lack of a Sarah Connor Chronicles season 3. I know that's not a k-drama but I just have to get that out there.

As for k-dramas, I can't think of one that's crying out for another season but there are a few I think you could crank out new seasons and it'd be fun, like Healer and Gaus Electronics.

I would love love to see “Move to Heaven” have more seasons and of course “Like Flowers in Sand”. I’m having serious withdrawal symptoms about the LFIS. If I could, I would trade the majority of what DB is recapping now for more LFIS. Anyday.

Vagabond is my top pick in this topic. The screenwriter/s cheated me, and made me feel stupid for putting in what 16 hours? on a show that ended cheap. Shame, shame.

I'd gladly watch a second season of Vincenzo, Celebrity, the delightful Love to Hate You and the recent Netflix show The Brothers Sun. There are others already mentioned including Hyena, My Liberation Notes and Moving. But really, I'm fantasizing on that second season of Crash Landing where they present us with offspring. Imagine...

Zombie Detective
38 Squad
Liar Game

I'm joining the numerous voices demanding Signal 2.

My secret Terrius - would have been a fun one! Seeing them both as agents.

I do want to see a female Prison Playbook
The writing would have to be top notch or don’t bother.
So many great actresses to populate this prison playbook, make it happen please.

VAGABOND.
And the most frustrating about that, it's made by the duo writers of Giant and Empress Ki. Then, they didn't make a big saga since this drama. But I think they had that in mind with Vagabond. I feel like they had planned what's coming next, and with 2 or 3 seasons, make a great saga of this kind.

1. Forest of Secrets/Stranger season 3;
2. Kingdom season 3;
3. Signal season 2

i love the fact that 99% of kdramas are 1 season only. i hate that netflix wants to drag sh1t out just for a ca$h grab.
BUT! i would love to see:
S2 for "Att Woo" and "Tomorrow"
and S3 for "Yumi's cells"
THAT IS IT.

You see, I'm someone who does not like sequels (Frozen 2 still better than Frozen 1 tho) because to me, if you ended something, that should be it.

Having said that, I want Signal 2. I need it in my life. You can't end it with such an ending. It's criminal!!!!

Yumi's Cell 3. I would like to see a new love story for Yumi and a happy ending for Babi and Da Eun's story.

Second season of a K-drama:

I wish for a happy ending for Heartbeat.

I want Good Job and Stealer: The Treasure Keeper to keep doing what they do.

I need the Goblin and Grim Reaper hi-jinks. They can also solve mysteries together. ❤
