Hide is a super exciting but underrated K-drama from the cable network JTBC known for Welcome to Samdal-ri, Sky Castle and Itaewon Class. With exciting themes of long-term revenge, murder, betrayals and secrets, it’s for those who love revenge dramas. The 12-episode series stars Lee Bo-young, Lee Moo-saeng, Lee Chung-ah and Lee Min-jae and is based on the Welsh thriller, Keeping Faith. With shocking revelations and plot twists, the season finale is bound to have viewers on the edge of their seats.
If you’ve watched the first season and want to know if there will be a second, this article has all the details you’re looking for.
Here’s everything we know:
What is Hide Season 1 about?
Na Moon-young has a loving relationship with her husband, Cha Sung-jae who seems perfect on all fronts. That is till one day he simply disappears. Suspicious documents and people that seem to be linked to Sung-jae start targeting Moon-young.
However, she refuses to believe that her husband would be involved in something nefarious even though she realises that she actually doesn’t know anything about him. It seems that her neighbour, Ha Yeon-joo may know more than her while the mysterious Do Jin-woo knows exactly what may have happened to Cha Sung-jae.

Has Hide Been Renewed for Season 2?
At the time of writing, Hide has not been renewed for season 2.
While the K-drama industry is changing its format, we are yet to see multiple season shows. Sure, dramas like Strong Girl Nam-soon, Doctor Romantic and Taxi Driver 2 appear to be an exception thanks to their roaring success. But it is unlikely that we will get Hide season 2 at the moment, especially since JTBC K-drama sequels are pretty rare.
What do we know about Hide Season 2?
Not much is known about Hide Season 2 at the moment given that it has not been greenlit. We could get a prequel which explores how Yeon-joo approached Cha Sung-jae and devised her vengeance. Or a sequel could look at Moon-young, Shin-hwa, Detective Baek and Jin-woo teaming up and taking down other evil corporations.
If the K-drama does return, you can expect a season with approximately 12 episodes, each lasting around 50 minutes. However, nothing is confirmed yet, but we’ll be sure to update this page as soon as any new information comes in.
