Jo Byeong Gyu, Yoo Joon Sang, Yeom Hye Ran and Ahn Suk Hwan to return for The Uncanny Counter 2

Original counters Jo Byeong Gyu, Yoo Joon Sang, Kim Sejeong, Yeom Hye Ran and Ahn Suk Hwan are all set to return for the second season of hit Korean drama The Uncanny Counter.

As the Korean tabloid Soompi notes, based on a webtoon, The Uncanny Counter is about demon hunters called “counters” who disguise themselves as employees of a noodle restaurant and hunt down demons who have come to Earth in pursuit of eternal life. Season 2 is set to return with the “counters” who have now become stronger after a new member joins and after acquiring new powers.

In 2020, the original drama made history after recording the highest ratings in OCN history. Additionally, Jin Sun Kyu, Kang Ki Young, Kim Hieora, and Yoo In Soo have all been added to the cast of the series. Jin Sun Kyu will star as firefighter Joo Seok, someone who can’t stand injustice.

Kang Ki Young and Kim Hieora will portray villain characters Pil Gwang and Gelly respectively. Meanwhile, Yoo In Soo will transform into newly recruited counter, Jeok Bong. The production team shared, “We are doing our best to present you with a more fun and interesting Season 2 to repay the love you sent our way in Season 1.

They added, “With stronger and more enhanced counters, demons, and strong teamwork, we will greet you with an upgraded Korean-style hero series, so please look forward to it and give it lots of interest.”

The Uncanny Counter 2 is set to premiere in the second half of 2023, airing new episodes every Saturday-Sunday.
