During this press conference, 'Kingdom's lead actor Joo Ji Hoon reacted to the news that the upcoming premiere of season 2 was being promoted via numerous billboards across the United States, such as in New York City, Los Angeles, etc. "When I first saw the billboards, I thought, 'Maybe it's photoshopped?'. My co-star, the world-renowned actress Bae Doo Na, has worked on many large productions overseas but it's a first for me. I still can't register if it's real or just a dream."Regarding any spoilers for 'Kingdom' season 2, Joo Ji Hoon hinted, "I felt after reading the script that season 2 got to the bottom of a lot of the cliffhangers of season 1. It's like, 'The bowl will be full of fish' by the end of season 2." Another lead actor, Ryu Seung Ryong, shared a story of how he was recognized thanks to 'Kingdom' while filming a documentary in Africa. He revealed, "I went to Africa to film a documentary recently. I worked with animal specialists in Zimbabwe and South Africa. I was surprised when they recognized me. At first, they ran from me because in the drama, I'm the antagonist, but later, they also acted like zombies for me." cast-and-crew-of-kingdom-2-dish-on-season-1-cliffhangers-the-dramas-popularity-jun-ji-hyun-more-2Finally, 'Kingdom's main scriptwriter Kim Eun Hee answered the press's questions regarding Jun Ji Hyun's cameo appearance in the drama. Kim Eun Hee commented, "While planning out the storyline, there was a character that I thought would fit Jun Ji Hyun well, and when I suggested it to her she accepted generously." The scriptwriter then added on toward the end of the press conference, "Personally, I want to continue this series until season 10." 'Netflix's 'Kingdom' season 2 premieres worldwide on March 13!
