Many Kdrama fans anticipate the premiere of Sweet Home Season 2, especially after the production has confirmed a couple of actors who will lead the second instalment. And one of them, supposedly, is singer-songwriter BIBI.
However, BIBI dropped out two weeks after joining Netflix’s Sweet Home Season 2. According to several entertainment officials, BIBI has recently finished filming her first scene but suddenly steps down from the acting role.
BIBI Leaves Sweet Home Season 2 Filming
Although the production for Sweet Home Season 2 openly expressed that BIBI was the perfect one to play the role, she had to drop out from filming due to conflicts with her initial schedule and activities.
BIBI was the runner-up in the SBS audition program The Fan and has since become famous by appearing on several entertainment programs. She has also become a representative entertainer of her generation, with her wit and spontaneous talk, while recently appearing in the TVing program Witch Hunt 2022.

Sweet Home Plot & Storyline
The webtoon by Kim Carnby and Hwang Young-cha with the same name is the inspiration for the animated series Sweet Home, which premiered on Netflix in December 2020.
Here is a plot summary provided by Netflix for the Kdrama Sweet Home for those unaware of the series: "As mankind transforms into ferocious monsters, one disturbed youngster and his neighbors strive to survive and hang onto their humanity," the synopsis reads.
Sweet Home was the first South Korean television show to ever make it into the Top 10 list on a streaming service in the United States, and it reached the number three spot in 2020. It later took the number one spot in eight of the world's areas and ranked among the top 10 in 42 regions worldwide.
Sweet Home Season 2 Release Date
In a previous announcement from Netflix, the global streaming platform revealed that they would release seasons 2 and 3 of the popular Korean series Sweet Home. However, there is still no specific news confirming a release date.
Since Netflix has also only recently confirmed the news that Sweet Home will be renewed for two additional seasons, an official release date for Season 2 is not likely to be announced anytime soon.
The Kdrama is also not included in the latest list of movies and TV shows coming in September 2022, which means that the new season will not be released until next year or later.
