Netflix has confirmed the production of season 2 of ‘Hounds’ and revealed the casting, drawing attention.

Season 2 of the Netflix series ‘Hounds’ is the story of Gun-woo and Woo-jin, who caught a vicious gang of illegal loan sharks, once again throwing a refreshing straight hook against the global illegal boxing league.

The Netflix series ‘Hounds’, which thrilled viewers around the world with the thrilling action of two young boxers who fight the world of illegal loan sharks with their bare fists, has returned with season 2, stronger than ever. Gun-woo (Woo Do-hwan), who has the heart of a righteous boxer, and the reckless but brave Woo-jin (Lee Sang-yi), who caught a vicious gang of illegal loan sharks, once again throw a refreshing straight hook to wipe out the ‘Illegal Boxing League’. Amidst anticipation for the comeback of Woo Do-hwan and Lee Sang-yi, who will truly explode with their action instincts, attention is also focused on Jung Ji-hoon‘s unique transformation, who will complete the ultimate villain.



Woo Do-hwan returns as ‘Gun-woo’, a young man who dreams of becoming a boxing champion. Gun-woo entered the world of loan sharks to pay off his mother’s debt and had a heated confrontation with the vicious Myeong-gil (Park Sung-woong). In season 2, they engage in a life-or-death showdown against gangs that use boxing as a medium for illegal gambling around the world. Lee Sang-yi plays ‘Woo-jin’, a boxer armed with the spirit of the Marine Corps and Gun-woo‘s strong supporter, and once again shows off hot and pleasant action chemistry with Woo Do-hwan. The young boxers stand back in the ring to destroy the illegal boxing league. It is already exciting to see what kind of thrill the honest and upright Gun-woo and the cheerful and lively Woo-jin will bring with their fists.

In addition, the global villain ‘Baekjeong’, who drags Gun-woo and Woo-jin into an illegal boxing league, is played by Jung Ji-hoon, stimulating even more anticipation. ‘Baekjeong’ is a character with overwhelming power that can even crush world boxing champions, and he does not hesitate to use any means necessary to drag promising boxer Gun-woo into his dark league. Expectations and interest are higher than ever for the ‘King of Villains’ that Jung Ji-hoon, who has taken on his first villainous role in 20 years since his debut, will complete.

‘Hunting Dogs’ season 2 will be released worldwide exclusively through Netflix.
