Hyun Bin's Disney+ original series 'Made in Korea' Season 2 has been released, attracting significant attention both domestically and internationally. As this is Hyun Bin's comeback project after winning the Baeksang Arts Awards for Best Actor, his acting transformation and the series' success are drawing considerable interest.
Season 1 achieved No. 1 on Disney+ Korea immediately after its release and peaked at No. 3 globally for TV shows, becoming the most-watched Disney+ Korean original worldwide in 2025. Directed by Woo Min-ho, this historical crime thriller is set in 1970s Korea, portraying the conflict between Central Intelligence Agency agent Baek Ki-tae (Hyun Bin) and prosecutor Jang Geon-young (Jung Woo-sung). Season 2 picks up nine years after Season 1, following Baek Ki-tae's ascent to acting director after the 10.26 incident, pursuing even greater ambitions.
At the production presentation, Hyun Bin candidly expressed his pressure regarding the series' success but also showed strong confidence in his collaboration with director Woo Min-ho and his fellow actors. Bloggers highlight Hyun Bin's chilling portrayal of Baek Ki-tae, a CIA agent involved in smuggling, and his intense confrontation with Jung Woo-sung as key viewing points, anticipating whether Season 2 will continue the success of its predecessor.
