Made in Korea Season 2 releases 2 episodes every Wednesday on Disney+ — September 9 (episodes 1-2), September 16 (episodes 3-4) and September 23 (episodes 5-6, the finale) — for 6 episodes total, per Korean production press conference coverage.
That means the whole season is over in 14 days, so there is no long wait to find out how it ends.
This post gives the week-by-week schedule, the total episode count, where to stream it by region, what changed from Season 1, and what Season 2 is about.

Made in Korea Season 2 episode schedule: what drops each Wednesday
Per Korean production press conference coverage (wikitree, September 2, 2026), Made in Korea Season 2 releases 2 episodes every Wednesday — September 9, 16 and 23, 2026 — for 6 episodes total.
The schedule is anchored to the September 2 production press conference in Seoul, where the director and cast confirmed the episode count and the 3-week run.
One English streaming guide lists 1 episode weekly through October 7 instead, but its schedule conflicts with the Korean press version, so treat it as unverified.
So if a week is missing episodes in the app, the missing pair arrives the next Wednesday.
If you are catching up mid-run, the next drop date is the only one that matters for you.
When two sources disagree, the one tied to the actual press conference is the one I check first — that is the Korean version here.
No source states the exact hour each Wednesday drop goes live, so do not plan an evening around a specific time.
Episode titles and per-episode runtimes have not been confirmed either — check the episode list inside the Disney+ app on the drop day.
| September 9, 2026 (Wed) | Episodes 1-2 |
|---|---|
| September 16, 2026 (Wed) | Episodes 3-4 |
| September 23, 2026 (Wed) | Episodes 5-6 — season finale |
Made in Korea Season 2: how many episodes total
Season 2 is a 6-episode season, confirmed at the September 2, 2026 production press conference.
That is the same count as Season 1, which also ran 6 episodes from December 24, 2025 to January 14, 2026.
The difference is the pace: Season 2 compresses its 6 episodes into 14 days, while Season 1 spread the same number over 22 days.
In practice, you can finish the entire season in three weeks of Wednesdays.
If you dislike waiting for weekly drops, the wait is shorter here than for most K-dramas — two weeks after the premiere, everything is out.
If you have not started at all, waiting until September 23 and watching all 6 episodes in one sitting costs you about two weeks.

Where to watch Made in Korea Season 2: Disney+ or Hulu?
Korean press (wikitree, tvreport) confirms Disney+ as the worldwide exclusive platform for Season 2, including Korea.
The claim that US viewers get it on Hulu comes from a single English guide that also got the weekly schedule wrong, so it is not confirmed by an official Disney or Hulu announcement.
The practical check is simple: open your Disney+ (or Hulu) app on a drop day, September 16 or 23, and search the title where you live.
For readers outside the US, no separate regional platform is mentioned in the Korean coverage — Disney+ is the stated answer in every region it operates.
If the title does not appear in your app, the regional catalog is the first thing to check, because Disney+ libraries differ by country.
Before relying on a Hulu listing, confirm it in the app itself rather than in a guide.
Season 2 release dates vs Season 1: what changed
Season 2 completes its 6-episode run in 14 days (September 9–23, 2026), while Season 1 spread the same 6 episodes over 22 days (December 24, 2025 – January 14, 2026).
About 8 months separate the two seasons on screen dates — Season 1 ended January 14, 2026 and Season 2 premiered September 9, 2026.
Inside the story, though, the jump is 9 years, from the Season 1 finale to October 1979.
The structure changed too.
Director Woo Min-ho described Season 1 as episodic — a ‘kids’ fight’ with arcs per episode — and Season 2 as one continuous story across all 6 episodes, an ‘adults’ fight.’
If you binge for plot momentum, Season 2’s single-story design works in your favor once the finale is out.
If I were catching up mid-run, I would wait for September 23 and watch all 6 episodes in one go.
The director built this season as one continuous story, and a 2-episode-per-week pace breaks it into fragments.

What Season 2 is about (official synopsis only)
Season 2 is set 9 years after Season 1, centered on October 26, 1979 and running up to just before the December 12 coup.
Baek Ki-taek (Hyun Bin) returns as acting KCIA director and the No.
2 in the organization, pushing a cliff-edge gamble for even greater power.
New characters join: Shin Yeo-sa (Jang Hye-jin) and martial-law commander Hwang Dae-shik (Heo Jung-do), while Oh Ye-jin (Seo Eun-soo) becomes Korea’s first female prosecutor.
Because the story jumps 9 years, knowing how Season 1 ended helps: it closed with Baek Ki-taek rising to KCIA director.
If you watched Season 1 when it aired, a quick rewatch of the last episode is the fastest refresher — the new season opens from the position he won there.
Once the finale drops on September 23, the full 6-episode arc is available in one place, and the complete season takes about two weeks from the premiere to finish.
Season 1 remains available on Disney+ as the most-watched Disney+ Korean original of 2025 worldwide, which is where the story starts.
