Descendants of the Sun Season 2 Cast
It is our regret that we have to tell you this, but the old cast has been replaced by a new one.
Song Joong-ki will not be available to fans after Battlefield’s release. The actor will take a long vacation and will change his mind. Perhaps the actor is just looking to be relaxed, so let him be a guy! Every k-drama fans’ favorite couple Song Jong Ki and Song Hye-kyo have unfortunately got divorced in real life so there is very low chances of seeing this pair together again for season 2.

Reports have surfaced that the Song-Song couple who starred in the original have opted not to be part of the sequel, due to scheduling conflicts and their problems in personal life. But there are also reports saying that the two are said to have met with one of season 2’s writers, and it is expected to tell the story of Captain Yoo Si-jin (Song Joong-ki) and his wife Dr. Kang Mo-yeon’s (Song Hye-kyo) family life. Nothing can be surely said about what turns this show’s season 2 can take.
The 35-year old actor Song Joong-ki became one of the biggest and notable K-drama star on the planet and since then, he has been back and forth on several projects and has even starred in successful Korean movie projects. Rejuvenating is an essential part of life. Everyone needs to take a break from time to recharge.
Kim Ji-won also stated that she is currently involved in other shoots and brand initiatives, so Song Joong-ki and the other cast members won’t be returning.
This leaves us with the conclusion that the casting groups and directors will cast new actors for the second season of Descendants of the Sun.
What can be Expected from Descendants of the Sun Season 2?
Descendants of The Sun season 1 had 16 regular episodes and 3 special episodes. Fans can expect DOTS season 2, which will have at least 15-20 episodes each.
This translates to 20 hours of waiting, and if you add in the few breaks and work hours of an average human being, the second season can be completed in just one week.
The new season was expected to be released sometime in 2017, according to some speculations. Today, however, the main news is still not clear.
Unverified reports indicate that Season 2 will see the wedding of Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo’s characters Yoo Si Jin and Kang Me Yeon. Last season’s story revolved around their characters’ love story, and the drama concluded with the whole team being called into action again after a volcanic eruption in Canada.
While some reports say that Song Joong-ki and Song Hye-kyo are unlikely to reprise their roles in the second installment, and the spotlight will instead be on Seo Dae-Young (Jin Goo) and Yoon Myeong-Joo (Kim Ji Won).
All things considered, the 2022 launch date for ‘Descendants of The Sun‘ would be the most optimistic and exciting news for all korean drama fans. This section will be updated as soon as more information becomes available.
