Disney+ has finally unveiled the first images from « Made in Korea 2«, the long-awaited sequel to its original series released in December 2025. In addition to announcing a September premiere, the streaming service unveiled a new teaser and a poster that offer a first look at the sequel to this political thriller starring Hyun Bin, Jung Woo-sung, and Woo Do-hwan.
This second season will continue the story 9 years after the events of the first chapter, promising an even more intense power struggle.

In fact, the teaser opens with a line that perfectly sums up his rise to fame: «I’ve been waiting for this moment for a very long time.»
Still driven by boundless ambition, Baek Ki-tae now seems ready to go even further, convinced that each of his choices can change the course of history.
An even more explosive showdown
But this rise will not come without consequences.
The trailer confirms the return of Jang Geon-young (Jung Woo-sung), the prosecutor who had sacrificed everything to try to bring down Baek Ki-tae in the first season. After years of planning his revenge, he returns, determined to resume the fight.
The teaser also introduces Baek Ki-hyunplayed by Woo Do-hwan, who took a completely different path from his brother's to rise to power.
With new alliances, political rivalries, military interventions, and spectacular action scenes, «Made in Korea 2» promises to ramp up the tension even further.
