What the teaser and poster have revealed 

On September 20, Netflix dropped the first teaser and poster for their upcoming series Hellbound 2. The poster and teaser revealed the resurrection of the character Jung Jin Soo, who is played by Kim Sung Cheol. The teaser shows the resurrection of the character after being trapped in hell for several years. 

The teaser and the poster focus on the characters' resurrection. 

  • Where Hellbound Season 1 left off 

At the end of Season 1, religious leader Chairman Jung Jinsu had vanished, Park Jungja was resurrected, and Min Hyejin managed to escape with baby Toughie, despite the baby’s decree of damnation. In Season 2, the New Truth, the Arrowheads, and Sodo leader Hyejin face a new challenge—the unexpected resurrections of those previously condemned. Could this mean it’s possible to defy the decrees of these supernatural beings after all?

  • Hellbound Season 2 Plot points 

Jung Jinsu, the founder of the New Truth religious cult, returns after years of being condemned to hell. He discovers that the teachings of the New Truth, along with its radical sect, Arrowhead, now dominate society. However, Jinsu soon learns he's not the only one who has returned from the dead.

Determined to uncover the true nature of his resurrection, he questions whether it signifies damnation, as the New Truth claims, or if it could be the key to genuine salvation. As he navigates this new reality, Jinsu seeks answers about the true purpose and implications of his return.
