"Arthdal Chronicles" Reportedly Delays Production Of 2nd Season + Production Company Responds

The second season of “Athdal Chronicles” may not air as scheduled.

Previously in February, tvN confirmed that the second season of “Arthdal Chronicles” is being prepared with an aim to begin filming in the second half of the year.

However, according to recent reports, the production schedule will be postponed due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

The pandemic has caused the production company to make some changes because they are not able to film overseas, which means the production team has to reorganize the schedule with the actors as well. The goal was to air the drama next year, but the schedule will reportedly be delayed as the filming has been postponed. Therefore, the second season of “Arthdal Chronicles” has been excluded from the 2021 lineup.

One industry representative said, “The production of the second season of ‘Arthdal Chronicles’ is a difficult matter to decide immediately considering the current situation. 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.”

Following the reports, the drama’s production company Studio Dragon shared, “The crank in plans for the second season have become uncertain due to COVID-19. We’re constantly discussing the production schedule.”
