According to Deadline, the producer of the aforementioned series, Dai Ota, stated, “Thanks to the love from our viewers, it is exciting to return for a new season.”
The producer also added that as The Boyfriend happens to be the first same-sex reality show in the country, its makers paid close attention to the story, ensuring that it is an “authentic portrayal of these relationships.”
Ota also mentioned that in the first season, the series not only showed romance but also strong and meaningful connections between these contestants as they built their friendship with each other.
“Please look forward to a new season with new participants, a new Green Room, and new storytelling,” Dai Ota added, while also mentioning that the second and upcoming season will continue to portray such connection on screen and will even talk about “unique perspectives and backstories.”
The outlet has also stated that commentators from season 1—Thelma Aoyama, Durian Lollobrigida, Megumi, Chiaki Horan, and Yoshimi Toku—will be back for this season.
