The Jokes Got Old
Do I think it's really bad? No.
Do I think we needed a Season 2? Probably not.
To be honest, the one truly carrying this season is Lee Yi-kyung. We already know how talented he is when it comes to comedy, but I didn't feel the same level of comedic impact from the rest of the cast. They certainly had their moments, but the humor just didn't land as consistently for me.
What made Season 1 so memorable was the cast's chemistry. Everyone played off each other's jokes so naturally that even the simplest scenes became hilarious. Here, that dynamic just wasn't there. Instead, it felt like the production leaned more toward casting visually appealing actors, with names like Kim Seon-ho and Moon Ga-young joining the cast.
I also noticed quite a few recycled comedy skits that had already been done in Season 1. Because of that, many of the jokes didn't hit as hard the second time around. It wasn't terrible, but compared to the first season, the comedy felt repetitive and lacked the same freshness.
I also wish they had kept at least a few more of the original cast members instead of replacing almost everyone and leaving only Lee Yi Kyung behind. I know why they did it, because he's easily the funniest character, but part of what made Season 1 work was how perfectly the entire cast complemented one another. Here, it often felt like Lee Yi Kyung was doing most of the heavy lifting.
Overall, I still enjoyed Season 2 and had a good number of laughs. It's still a fun watch, but compared to the first season, it lacked the same chemistry, freshness, and comedic impact that made the original so unforgettable.
