Eight years have passed since Signal debuted on television in 2016, enthralling viewers with its deft use of mystery, intrigue, and the paranormal. A follow-up to the ground-breaking series has been fervently hoped for by fans. Scriptwriter Kim Eun-hee has now blessed us with the confirmation we have been praying for, rewarding our perseverance.
Reuniting with production company BA Entertainment, the skilled playwright behind the successful drama Revenant that aired on SBS last year is returning to work with them on the much-anticipated Signal 2. The intriguing premise of Signal, a timeless classic, involves two detectives—one from the past and the other from the present—talking to solve unsolved cases via an enigmatic walkie-talkie. Its inventive storyline, which skillfully combined past and present timelines, captivated viewers from the start and included well-developed characters.
The possibilities are infinite once Signal 2 is confirmed. Which fresh enigmas will our daring investigators solve? The second season’s writer, Kim Eun-hee, has hinted that she plans to go deeper into the unknown stories from the first. All that’s left to clarify is that Lee Je-hoon, Kim Hye-soo, and Cho Jin-Woong—the three main actors whose performances were crucial to the first season’s success—will be making a comeback.
