The hit drama “The Fiery Priest” may be finally coming back for a highly-anticipated second season!
On December 7, a representative from SBS shared, “The production of ‘The Fiery Priest’ Season 2 is currently under discussion, but nothing has been confirmed yet.”
“The Fiery Priest,” which first aired in 2019, is about a Catholic priest with anger management issues and a cowardly detective who work together to solve a murder case.
Starring Kim Nam Gil, Honey Lee, and Kim Sung Kyun, the drama recorded a peak viewership rating of 22 percent. At the 2019 SBS Drama Awards, “The Fiery Priest” took home eight awards in total, including lead actor Kim Nam Gil receiving the Daesang (grand prize) for the first time in his career.
The drama teased its return with the message, “We will be back,” in the final episode, and after two years, expectation is rising on whether the hit drama will be able to return for Season 2.
