When Does Revenge of Others Season 2 Come Out? Is It Renewed?

What is Revenge of Others about?

Revenge of Others is a South Korean mystery thriller about a girl convinced her twin brother was murdered, not a suicide as everyone claims. Chan-mi transfers into his school and becomes obsessed with finding the truth, particularly with a vigilante who has been punishing bullies on campus. The show treats this premise seriously, which means it's partly a whodunit and partly an examination of how school violence breeds more violence. If you want a mystery that actually develops its clues across episodes rather than dumping them in a finale, this will appeal to you.

The tone is deliberately grim. This is not a fun revenge fantasy. The show spends real time with its characters' pain, especially the parents grinding through their grief while their children won't talk to them. The bullying scenes are brutal enough to be difficult to watch without sliding into exploitation. What makes it distinct is that it refuses to make the vigilante hero a simple wish fulfillment figure. The show is more interested in asking whether taking justice into your own hands actually helps anyone or just deepens the cycle of harm. That's a harder question than most revenge dramas want to ask.

Audiences on IMDb rated it solidly, though it never became a water-cooler phenomenon. Critical attention was modest, which may reflect the fact that it arrived on Disney+ in late 2022 during a crowded season, or simply that it's one of many Korean thrillers competing for attention. The show completed its 12-episode run and ended, which is actually rare enough to notice. It didn't get extended or abandoned midway.

It's more serious and less flashy than most school revenge shows. It sits somewhere between the moral ambiguity of Extracurricular and the tighter plotting of Bulldog Spirit, though it's not quite as sharp as either. The real strength is that it stays interested in the mystery across all twelve episodes without padding or losing the thread.

Is Revenge of Others renewed or cancelled?

Why did Revenge of Others end?

Revenge of Others arrived on Disney+ as a Korean drama built to tell one complete story across twelve episodes, and that's exactly what it did. The show wrapped its narrative arc in December 2022, just over a month after its November premiere, with no indication that the network or creators planned anything beyond that initial run. It was designed as a limited series from the start, not a victim of cancellation but rather a show that concluded as intended.

The streaming model that Disney+ has adopted for much of its international content treats these self-contained stories differently from American television. A twelve-episode mystery with a beginning, middle, and end doesn't require renewal talks or depend on the same metrics that keep traditional series alive. Revenge of Others found an audience that rated it solidly on IMDb, but Disney+ didn't need to justify cancelling something that was never meant to continue. The platform could move on to the next project without the awkward explanations that surround an actual cancellation. For viewers, the show delivered its revenge plot from setup to resolution without overstaying its welcome.
