They are literally filming it. And they were planning to do it until late July. Then it will be the time for post-production. So, the answer is no and there won't be any updates for months.
she Walks on Thick Gold Bars instead of thin ice lol pun intended
There are dozens of movies and shows about civilians who happen to get some valuable mcguffin belonging to organized crime (money, gold, drugs and so on) in the world culture, from No Country for Old Men to season 1 of Fargo to Beasts Clawing at Straws to, yes, Walking on Thin Ice. It's not a new idea.
It's the execution of the idea that matters. Now do you make it? What angle do you want to take? What characters do fight for this mcguffin? What ideas or concepts do you want to explore? Is it an action piece? Is it a drama about social institutions (e. g. a family)? Is it psychological drama? Is it thriller? Is it a classic tragedy about characters' flaws leading them to their demise? Is it a melodrama to show their emotions in such extreme situations? Is it a fish-out-of-water situation turning into a hero's journey? And so on.
I see "Romance" among genres of the drama, but I do hope it's a proper crime drama/thriller instead of being a thinly-veiled romantic/family drama which happens quite a lot in K-drama world. At least the first teaser makes such an impression. I still hope it will be more in line with Beasts Clawing at Straws or Karma.
It's probably June. Netflix releases a K-drama every 3 weeks or so. Bloodhounds season 2, If Wishes Could Kill and The WONDERfools are set to be released on April 3rd, April 24th and May 15th respectively. So two 2nd quarter time slots left, both are in June: June 5th and June 26th. One of them is for Teach You a Lesson and another one for The Notes From the Last Row.

Bae Doo Na was a powerhouse, an unstoppable machine in season 1, she is a main star of the show, of course. But Ryu Seong Beom was a heart of the show, an emotional core of it. I am very worried how they are going to manage without him.
So you are sure about it now? I have a strong suspicion about it, but maybe it's wrong. I am going to give this show a chance and try and watch 1 or 2 episodes.
Bo young has said it will come in late April so we will wait😭
Well, we know it's going to be a Wednesday. The most annoying thing is the latest Wednesday of this April being on April, 29. It's like almost May. The previous Wednesday is on April 22. Is it considered as late April? I don't know, for me it's closer to the middle.
Anyway, it's like two months between two original Disney+ shows. And the end of this year is stacked: A Shop for Killers S2, Made in Korea S2, Portraits of Delusion, The Remarried Empress. What a weird schedule!
I don't know. I am watching at the male actors' faces, and they all look like the definition of moral ambiguity.…
Well, I expect a little more like Beasts Clawing at Straws with gold as a mcguffin (instead of the money case in the movie). But we will have already seen the vibe and tone in the trailers.
hm but that is not enough to classify as a 'dangerous' secret. is it?
Not in South Korean show business, I guess. Can you name an openly homosexual/outed top celebrity in Korea? I can't, but maybe I just don't know. I mean even a traditional heterosexual marriage is often considered as "problematic."
why is this listed as Romance? so, we're not getting morally ambiguous male leads?
I don't know. I am watching at the male actors' faces, and they all look like the definition of moral ambiguity. I mean a vocabular could put picture of any of them as an illustration.
I have a weird feeling the FL is going to "cheat" on the ML. But the catch is her lover or a crush is a woman instead of a man (probably, Nana's character). That's why their marriage will have been a sham since the beginning and the ML will manage to marry the top actress despite being a mere prosecutor. He will be ready to become a "beard" for his celebrity wife for his status improvement and her connections.
I don't put "spoilers," because it's not even a theory, let alone some real knowledge about the story, just a feeling from teasers and some moments there. Maybe the rating issue was caused by demonstration/ hints of homosexual/lesbian relationships. I might very well be wrong about it.
They hinted it during the prison assassination incident which gave us very important clues:1. The cure in his…
I agree in general. I just disagree about the final call. You know, there are two types of explanation in media, Watsonian and Doylist. Watsonian is about inside-universe logic, Doylist is from the author's point of view in our world. Yes, Watsonian-wise the characters should have understood the ML survived.
But Doylist-wise in our world people need to be spoon-fed about many twists, details and character developments, especially with secondary screen watching being a common thing. People scroll their smartphone as they "watch" TV, then they complain they don't understand what happens and how the show/movie is bad, And it happens all over social media creating bad publicity for the production. That's why Netflix has been ordering creators to talk directly what happens, make characters explain main plotlines, sometimes more than once, and generally "talk, not show".
Such viewers wouldn't really care about your explanation and subtexts, it's enough for them if their handsome oppa/unnie survived. How? Why? What does it mean for the story/fictional universe or for the concepts/ideas the creators tried to explore? It doesn't matter. It's about their feeling at the moment, and that's it. The networks/studios/streaming services are too afraid to deal with possible backlash, so they put the lowest common denominator as their priority. Unfortunately, it makes media/enterntainment dumber, but that's the reality we are living in now.
Bloody Flower is ending in a few hours, so it's time to put up some promo materials and reveal the release date for this K-drama. It's not like Disney+ is going to have a lot of shows this year.

Wow, I didn't know that? Who plays her?
By the way, I liked their boss in season 1, he was a funny character. It's a pity if we won't see him this time.
