Given the show’s unique and engaging concept, it’s no surprise that fans are clamoring for a second season. Chief Producer Kim Jae Won addressed the speculation, hinting that while more content is possible, the future depends heavily on viewer ratings. He mentioned that due to the upcoming Olympics, the first season was cut short at six episodes, despite having more stories to tell.
Kim Jae Won emphasized the importance of ratings, stating, “It’s still too early. More can be done, and more content has been released, but because the Olympics are near, there are only 6 episodes. The story is more than that. I think the audience’s rating is important, because we are a broadcasting company.”
