Get ready for yet another outstanding performance from Song Kang Ho. The Parasite actor is preparing for a cameo in Beef's upcoming season 2. He will hopefully be seen sharing screen space with veteran actress Youn Yuh Jung. Excitement is brewing to witness his return to US production after many years. 

On December 20, Korean media outlets reported that Song Kang Ho would have a guest appearance in Netflix's limited series Beef Season 2. Shortly after, his agency, SUBLIME, confirmed the news. Although details about his character are yet to be disclosed, fans are eagerly looking forward to this cameo, which will mark his return to US production since Showpiercer (2013) with Chris Evans. 

The critically acclaimed first season of Beef, starring Steven Yeun and Ali Wong in the lead roles, earned a total of five Emmy Awards, including Outstanding Lead Actor, Outstanding Limited Series, and Outstanding Writing.

Season 2 of the black comedy series is expected to achieve a similar level of critical acclaim. The new season will feature a total of eight episodes following the story of a young couple who accidentally witnesses an intense fight between their boss and his wife. However, the incident escalates into something alarming within an elite country club and its owner, who is a Korean chaebol. Oscar-winning actress Youn Yuh Jung will be taking on the role of this billionaire country club owner.
