Netflix's hit series Hellbound is returning for a highly anticipated second season after a three-year hiatus. On Wednesday, the streaming platform released the official trailer for Hellbound 2, confirming the release date for October 25.

Kim Sung Cheol has taken over the role of Chairman Jung Jin Soo. This is a key character previously played by Yoo Ah In, who exited the series following drug-related controversies.

Fans have expressed astonishment at the seamless transition, praising Kim for his striking resemblance to Yoo Ah In's portrayal of the enigmatic leader of the New Truth Society.

The first season of Hellbound made waves globally in 2021, topping charts in over 93 countries and earning the title of Best Horror Series at the Golden Tomato Awards.

Season 2 continues to explore a dystopian world where individuals receive chilling decrees of their impending deaths, referred to as "hellbound."

In the latest season, Chairman Jung Jin Soo's shocking resurrection takes center stage, and the trailer reveals him struggling to survive after being condemned to hell 20 years ago. As he rises from the dead, tensions escalate between attorney Min Hye Jin (Kim Hyun Joo) and various factions vying for control.

Kim Sung Cheol's seamless performance has already drawn significant fan praise. According to Daum, "It's like watching the same character."

Hellbound 2 launches globally on Netflix on October 25.
