We’re eager for new episodes of The Silent Sea now that the moondust has settled, precisely like the people who are perishing from thirst in this other sci-fi future. Even while Netflix’s most recent Korean sci-fi may not have enjoyed the same level of popularity as Squid Game or even Hellbound, there is still a need for additional episodes.
There is enough for at least one more season to continue this story. The series, penned by scriptwriter Park Eun-Kyo, enthralled and horrified us in equal measure throughout the holiday season.
To learn everything there is to know about The Silent Sea season 2, put on your spacesuit and accompany us as we venture into the darkest corners of the internet.
When Will The Second Season of The Silent Sea Premiere?

Netflix has not officially announced the show’s future, but if season two is approved, we shouldn’t anticipate any new episodes until early 2023. Since The Silent Sea involves more effects work in post-production than the regular show, that estimate is likely relatively kind.
Who Plays Who In The Silent Sea Season 2?
When the cast of The Silent Sea was initially revealed, fans were overjoyed to see well-known Korean performers like Sense8’s Bae Doona and actors from Squid Game, including Heo Sung-Tae and Gong Yoo, in the mix. But regrettably, not every one of them is probably going to show up for season two.
In the end, the vast majority of the characters pass away. In actuality, only three characters—Doctor Song (Bae Doona), Doctor Hong (Kim Sun-young), and Luna—remained standing as the credits rolled (Kim Si-A).

Even Captain Han gave his life in a brave gesture. Thus Gong Yoo, the renowned actor, is unlikely to return unless flashbacks allow for a cameo. As a result, season two will primarily include a brand-new cast to continue the plot from season one.
What Will Happen In The Second Season of The Silent Sea?
The Silent Sea will center on the final two survivors and their trip back to Earth with Luna unless a time jump is involved. Doctor Song and Doctor Hong might find themselves on the run or, at the very least, in hiding.
At the same time, political forces hunt Luna out for their purposes, given how singular their little charge is and what her presence represents to the scientific community.
Future seasons of The Silent Sea will also focus heavily on how the show’s premise makes a powerful remark on the environmental problems our world is experiencing.
If season two does materialize, we anticipate that the creators may try to consider some of the season one fan input. In a conversation with Sports Chosun (via Soompi) after the show’s debut, Gong Yoo spoke directly about the show’s conflicting reception.
“I knew not everyone would like the drama when I first received the script and began writing it. I anticipated that the difference would be even more pronounced because it belongs to the sci-fi genre. I believed there were other angles from which the drama might be viewed, whether from historical or scientific research.”
“Of course,” he continued, “there were areas that needed improvement, and I am aware of the small number of unfavorable viewpoints. However, I believe that we did our best given the situation and class we were in.”
There are some bright spots, though. Gong Yoo continued when discussing the influence of the show:
“We may have paved the way for future growth, in my opinion. This, in my opinion, is a significant first step for the Korean space science fiction genre. In my opinion, some aspects are excellent, and I believe it was a wonderful first start. Many people watch from various angles, but I believe the variety of viewpoints increases interest in the drama. Therefore I am appreciative.”
