Will There Be a Brain Works Season 2 Release Date & Is It Coming Out?

Created by Park Ki-ho, Brain Works is a South Korean mystery drama series. The plot revolves around an unlikely duo, a neuroscientist and an altruistic detective, as they work together to solve a complicated case. The first season originally aired in South Korea on KBS2 between January 2, 2023, and February 28, 2023. It is currently available in several regions across the world on Netflix. If you are wondering whether there will be a second season of Brain Works, this is what we have learned.

Here’s all we know about Brain Works Season 2 and whether or not it’s coming out.

Is there a Brain Works Season 2 release date?

There is no Brain Works Season 2 release date as the series has likely ended after the first season.

As of June 2024, KBS2 has not renewed Brain Works for the sophomore season. Given that it’s a South Korean series developed for a network headquartered in that country, Brain Works is unlikely to continue beyond one season. Moreover, the final episode of season 1 offers satisfactory endings to various main characters. Ha-ru (spoilers warning) succeeds in getting his late parents the justice they had been denied for so long. Hwang dies by suicide after injecting himself with morphine. Myung-se once more proposes to So-jung, and this time she accepts.

While the dynamic between Ha-ru and Myung-se is quite interesting, and can definitely sustain the series for a few more seasons, Brain Works has successfully wrapped the story it set to tell. So, in terms of narrative scope, the prospects for a second season are quite low.

The cast of Brain Works includes Jung Yong-hwa as Shin Ha-ru, Cha Tae-hyun as Geum Myeong-se, Kwak Sun-young as Seol So-jeong, and Ye Ji-won as Kim Mo-ran.

Why Brain Works Season 2 might not be happening

Brain Works Season 2 probably isn’t coming out because, as mentioned above, the series has likely concluded after Season 1. ComingSoon will provide an update if circumstances change, and KBS2 announces the sophomore season of Brain Works.

The official synopsis for Brain Works reads:

“Two ill-fated men become a comic duo to investigate criminal cases involving a rare brain disease together.”
