Korean thriller ‘A Shop for Killers’ returns season 2 on Disney+, Hulu

The hit Korean thriller “A Shop for Killers” returns for its second season on Disney+ and Hulu on July 22.

The eight-episode sequel continues with Jian now running the weapons shop and Jinman back from the dead, as the pair work to fend off a humiliated Babylon, which is recruiting reinforcements overseas to rebuild its ranks and exact revenge.

Lee Dongwook (“Harbin,” “The Nice Guy”) and Kim Hyejun (“Connect,” “Cashero”) reprise their roles as Jeong Jinman and Jeong Jian, respectively. They are joined by Japanese stars Hyunri (“Missing,” “Pachinko”) as team leader Q and Masaki Okada (“Drive My Car,” “Last Mile”) as mercenary J. Season 1 writers Jee Hojin (“Newtopia”) and Lee Kwon (“Door Lock”) return for the new season, with Lee Kwon also directing.

Season 2 premieres with two episodes on July 22, followed by two new episodes every Wednesday through the season finale on August 12.

The first season of “A Shop for Killers” proved to be a global success for the platforms.

The series is part of a wave of Korean sequels coming to Disney+. “Made In Korea,” starring Hyun Bin as a corrupt special agent and Jung Woosung as a prosecutor, will return with its second season later this year, while “Moving” has entered its second season after being a Korean drama with superpowers. Season 1 of “Made in Korea” became the most-watched Korean original premiere of 2025 for the streamer in the Asia-Pacific markets.

Season 1 of “A Shop for Killers” is streaming now, and Season 2 launches July 22 on Disney+ internationally and on Hulu in the US.
