I still remember when Sweet Home was released around Christmas in 2020 and wow was it a fun ride. I still like the webtoon better (more character development) but the drama cast well and brought the wild humans turning into their id monsters conceit to life.

If you have time now go check it out if you like the first season, this one doubles the cast of big names and leaves the apartment building to make Seoul the entire monster fighting playground. I do have doubts that bigger and badder equals better but if the main cast (the non-dead characters haha) agreed to come back hopefully they saw a great script in hand.
