A killer continuation!

Season 2 is an absolute hidden treasure despite what others say, going from season 1 to season 2 directly doesn't seem like a different story or characters and people who say otherwise are blinded by the nostalgia factor. I rewatched season 1 before starting season 2 and rewatched the entire thing (both season 1 and 2) and I don't think the writing declined at all, it's the same as season 1 was, so the issue is maybe the fact there's less story -- or deviations of -- no big political conspiracy or random evil spirits popping up during the main conflict.
Still, I think it's unfair to call the continuation "disappointing" as it truly is good and deserves more recognition. It unveils a brand-new narrative teeming with fresh conflicts and intricacies that stand entirely on their own. The characters gracefully navigate through a challenging fallout with Mun's firefighter friend, which allows Mun to evolve and grow even stronger within his extraordinary family dynamic.

Jeok Bong's endearing clumsiness becomes a guiding light that carries the counters through their darkest hours and even he is aware of that. People criticizing him fail to understand this comes from a manga and the character is the same way there as well. If there's a season 3, I'm sure they might take more effort into giving more depth to him, but season 2 delivered what the source material gave them.
The radiant chemistry between So Mun and Ha Na as a younger brother and older sister duo shines brilliantly.

I couldn't help but imagine the exhilaration if Gelly, Wong Yeok, and Pil Kwang had joined the counters or if the Yung territory had flowed effortlessly through So Mun's very being, as depicted in the manga. But I still think it was very good!

The seamless fusion of humor, action, and well-crafted storytelling in Season 2 provides ample space for each element to thrive without overwhelming or causing frustration. It beautifully retains the delightful charm of Season 1, making the second season an effortlessly enjoyable and breezy watch.

To the extraordinary and unparalleled uncanny family, I extend my heartfelt gratitude for your unwavering dedication and hard work. I'll miss you! <3
