This article discusses the possibility of Love to Hate You Season 2 and the renewed or canceled status of Netflix’s k-drama. It may contain some spoilers for the first season.
love to hate you sees netflix get into the February romance hype with a ten part south korean romance series that also has its share of comedy and a lot to say about gender roles and stereotypes. Although too long and contrived, the show is a good time, and given the season, people will be very much in search of this kind of binge-watch.
Here’s what we had to say in our review:
Needless to say, these two opposites are meant to attract each other, and once the show conspires to bring them together, it kicks into a slightly higher gear, though not high enough to sustain ten long episodes. Mi-ran is a lawyer who is almost on the verge of being a Daredevil-style vigilante, but if you’re looking for a series about empowering women in a male-dominated workplace, you better look in the direction of something like The exchangeanother recent Netflix Original from Kuwait based on a true story. love to hate you is a very different affair, much lighter and more absurd, even if it also postulates gender roles, perceptions and identities.
Those who enjoyed the first season will no doubt be wondering about its potential future, so here’s everything we know:
Will there be a season 2 of Love to Hate You?
Renewed or canceled status: to be confirmed
As of this writing, the future of the series is uncertain. Netflix doesn’t tend to confirm such things immediately after its debut, especially when the streaming giant has so many important internal and external metrics to consider. How many people tune in, how many people stick with it for the long haul, and how the show is received by both critics and audiences will be important. NOW, Rotten Tomatoes doesn’t have enough reviews for the show to even calculate a score.
There is a chance that love to hate you will get lost in the deluge of romantic content that hits streaming services this time of year. It’s also a heavy time investment at ten episodes, each a little under an hour, which can be off-putting for people who come together to enjoy a romantic story together (Valentine’s Day is a day of the year, after all.)
And artistically, there is little reason to continue the show. It tells a full story, with a happy ending, and while the characters are fun to be around, I don’t see much reason to spend more time with them after the events of this season. Because of all this, our official prediction is that love to hate you will not be renewed for season 2.
