Will Kim Sae Ron return?

While filming Bloodhounds’ first season, lead actress Kim Sae Ron’s DUI incident caused significant backlash and forced an early departure. Producers responded by shortening and heavily editing her scenes. Her involvement in season two remains unclear. Despite the hurdle, Bloodhounds season one roared out of the gate, amassing a staggering 27.97 million viewing hours within just three days of release. This rapid growth earned the show a spot at number two on Netflix’s worldwide non-English Top 10 category and ultimately took the number one spot.
