Season 2 premiered on July 29, 2023<\/strong>, and wrapped on September 3, 2023. After the first season, which aired in 2020 to 2021, became OCN\u2019s highest-rated original series, the show shifted to tvN for its second run and was trimmed from 16 episodes to 12. Adapted from Jang Yi\u2019s Kakao Webtoon<\/a> Amazing Rumor, The Uncanny Counter is a found-family action-fantasy drama about a group of Counters who hunt evil spirits after they possess humans. This time, the team goes up against a dangerous trio that has already killed other Counters and taken their powers.<\/p>\n\n

Jo Byeong-kyu, Yoo Jun-sang, Kim Se-jeong, and Yeom Hye-ran all returned. Yoo In-soo joined the cast, while Kang Ki-young, Kim Hieora, and Kim Hyun-wook took on the villain roles. If you liked season 1, this one\u2019s still worth catching up on. It had a gentler start, partly because of past allegations<\/strong> involving Jo Byeong-kyu, which later got messier when an accuser apologized, but the season still finished strong: the finale reached 6.1% according to Nielsen Korea, and the show spent three weeks in Netflix<\/a>\u2019s non-English Top 10, based on Netflix\u2019s weekly charts. Even so, some viewers felt the writing didn\u2019t land as hard this time, and that the emotional impact wasn\u2019t quite the same. You can watch The Uncanny Counter 2: Counter Punch on tvN in South Korea and on Netflix internationally.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
