Honestly, I thought Season 2 was going to suck. Losing so many of my favorite characters in Season 1 was brutal, and I didn’t see how they could possibly replace them. But wow, they proved me wrong. Hyun-ju is such a badass, No-eul’s transformation into a Pink Soldier is fascinating, and Jun-hee’s pregnancy added so much tension. Somehow, they made me care about these new characters just as much as the old ones.
That said, I’m still heartbroken that Thanos didn’t make it. He was one of the most entertaining characters—this drug-addicted rapper with such a chaotic energy that you couldn’t help but be drawn to him. Even with all his flaws, he had this weird charisma that made him unforgettable. It’s such a shame he didn’t survive to see Season 3. I was really hoping he’d get some sort of redemption arc or at least stick around to add his wild antics to the mix. He might’ve been a mess, but he was our mess.
