“Blood Free” wrapped up Season 1 amidst mixed reactions “Will it return with Season 2?”
Disney+'s web drama "Blood Free", which garnered high expectations with a large production budget, finally wrapped up Season 1 amidst mixed reactions
On May 8th, “Blood Free” released episodes 9 and 10, stirring curiosity about the conclusion. However, the ending felt rushed.
How many episodes was “Blood Free” supposed to be? In total, it was planned for 10 episodes. There was enough time to create a more beautiful ending. Moreover, “Blood Free” was a purely original drama without a webtoon or novel adaptation, so there was no reason to conclude with an open ending.
However, despite investing 24 billion won in production costs, the series ended with “paste baits”. While it successfully piqued the interest of viewers in the early episodes, many unresolved aspects left a sense of disappointment.
The final episode of Season 1 left the fate of the protagonist uncertain, creating both anticipation and anxiety for “Blood Free” Season 2. Even in this situation, fans of “Blood Free” are expressing strong desires for Season 2 through various online communities, galleries and SNS.
They earnestly hope to find answers to the various “paste baits” and the fate of the protagonist from Season 1. However, Disney+ has not yet provided an official statement regarding the production of “Blood Free” Season 2.
Moreover, industry experts analyze that considering the relatively disappointing performance and reception of Season 1, Disney+’s recent content strategy and market conditions, the decision to produce Season 2 remains uncertain.
Furthermore, concerns are also being raised about “Uncle Samsik”, the successor work to “Blood Free”. “Uncle Samsik”, which marks Song Kang-ho’s first drama since his debut, has attracted attention. However, there are worries as Disney+ maintains a format of releasing two episodes weekly instead of all at once like Netflix and is not active in promoting works after their releases.
The release time for “Uncle Samsik” is 4 PM on May 15th (Wednesday).
Many are eagerly watching whether “Blood Free” will return with Season 2 and, if it does, how it will meet the expectations of fans with its storyline.
