Disney+'s Korean hit Made in Korea season 2 is coming very soon. Wrapping up its story with this season and the wait is almost over.
Mark September 9, 2026 on your calendar — that's when the first two episodes land. The show follows a weekly drop pattern: two more episodes arrive September 16, and the final pair closes things out September 23. That's six episodes total, each around an hour long.
Disney+ holds exclusive streaming rights. Viewers outside Disney+ regions can catch it on Hulu, and JioHotstar carries it in select markets.
The new season jumps forward nine years. Baek Ki-tae (Hyun Bin) has climbed to deputy director inside the KCIA, and behind that title, he's built a drug trafficking network spanning the region.
But the one man he never fully outmaneuvered hasn't gone anywhere. Prosecutor Jang Geon-young (Jung Woo-sung) has spent nine years planning his comeback. As the country's politics grow unstable, the two are heading toward a final showdown, and neither plans to hold back — expect deeper dives into shifting loyalties, personal grudges, and the family fallout tangled up in this power struggle.
Season 1, set in 1970s South Season 1, set in 1970s South Korea, introduced Ki-tae as a man living two lives — intelligence operative by day, smuggler by night — until his secret world collided with Jang's. That collision left wounds that never closed, and now they fuel this final chapter.
