Overview
- Multiple outlets reported on Tuesday that Cha Eun-woo has been offered or is said to be cast as the male lead, but coverage conflicts on whether his participation is confirmed or still under agency review.
- Lim Yoon‑a and Lee Chae‑min will not return, and the project is described as a new-chapter spinoff with a different title and story rather than a direct second season.
- Filming has not started and sources say production is likely to be scheduled around Cha Eun‑woo’s mandatory military discharge on January 27, 2027, making an early 2027 shoot window plausible and a 2028 release likely if that timing holds.
- Broadcasters and platforms are in talks about distribution, with discussions reported for tvN and continued interest from Netflix based on the original show's international performance.
- Public reaction is mixed because of earlier 2026 tax-allegation reports about Cha Eun‑woo; the actor has said he paid relevant taxes and has filed for a tax adjudication to resolve the matter.
