Nam Goong-min appeared in the 'Nam Goong-min Filmo Commentary' video released on SBS's official YouTube on the 13th and had time to directly review his dramas 'stoverig' and 'thousand won lawyer'. In particular, at the end of the video, a question about season 2 of 'Stove League' followed.
Nam Goong-min laughed with a firm comment saying, `Give up' to the production team's request to `Say a word to the fans waiting for Season 2.' But then "Well, maybe one day you can do it well." Please wait for the day when he returns as general manager Baek Seung-soo.
His words did not make a clear stance on whether to produce season 2, but were read as not completely closing the possibility. Fans say there's hope, though", "Waiting for 5 years", "I wish you could come back as general manager Baek Seung-soo anytime", he said, expressing his still anticipation.
'Stove League' is SBS's representative hit that ended in 2020, with a highest viewership of 19.1%, depicting the story of the new general manager of the last-place baseball team innovating the team. It formed a mania base with realistic development and directing along the emotional line, and even after the end of the show, requests for season 2 continued.
However, writer Lee Shin-hwa, who was in charge of the play, maintained a cautious attitude at a press conference shortly after the end, saying, `I have some ideas, but I am not confident to fill 16 episodes.' He continues to worry about his work, saying, `I don't want to be told that I shouldn't have come back.'
Nam Goong-min became very popular afterwards through the SBS drama 'Attorney ' (2022), and is currently visiting the small screen as a movie director who dreams of making a comeback in the new SBS drama 'Our Movie'.
