Global content studio AStory announced on the 21st that the drama 'Crash' will be returning for a second season.
First aired on May 13, 'Crash' (directed by Park Jun-woo, written by Oh Soo-jin, produced by AStory and Studio Genie) is the first Korean drama to focus on traffic crime investigations. It follows the Traffic Crime Investigation (T.C.I) team as they relentlessly pursue villains on the road.
'Crash' has gained popularity due to its fresh and unique subject matter, detailed storyline, and the synergy between its captivating characters. The drama has consistently broken its own viewership records, achieving a peak rating of 6.6%, making it the second highest-rated show in ENA's history.
The show's realistic car action scenes have thrilled viewers, and its engaging plot and investigative tension have created a new level of excitement without relying on typical romance tropes. The enthusiastic support and anticipation for a second season have been evident throughout its broadcast.
Writer Oh Soo-jin stated, "In Season 2, not only will we see more chemistry among the TCI team members, but we will also explore diverse stories involving characters from Namgang Police Station. Expect a wider range of traffic crime cases." Director Park Jun-woo added, "Thanks to the viewers' support, we will bring more diverse episodes and upgraded car action scenes in 'Crash 2'. We aim to establish 'Crash' as a long-running investigative series in Korea."
Production company AStory mentioned, "At the end of Season 1, the TCI team's affiliation changed from the 'Police Agency' to the 'National Investigation Headquarters'. This means Season 2 will feature larger-scale cases, more diverse stories, and enhanced car action scenes. We ask for your continued interest."
Fueled by the explosive love from viewers, the swift confirmation of 'Crash' Season 2 promises that the drama's remarkable journey will continue.
