Arthdal Chronicles 2 Faced Delays production Due to COVID-19


To recall, in February 2020, tvN revealed that the epic fantasy series is getting a green light for another season and will be directed by Kim Kyu Tae and Hong Jong Chan.

At the time, the Kdrama was preparing to start its production in the second half of 2020 but was postponed due to the pandemic.

In July of the same year, Studio Dragon gave updates noting that they made significant changes given the travel restrictions; hence, they could not film overseas.

In a statement, industry personnel explained that the production for season 2 “is a difficult matter to decide immediately considering the current situation,” adding that “the production situation, as well as the cost, will be equal to those from the first season, so the production company is considering various options.”

Due to this, Arthdal Chronicles season 2 was excluded from the 2021 lineup.
