Has Sweet Home Been Renewed for Season 4?
At the time of writing, Netflix has canceled Sweet Home and there will be no Season 4.
While the Korean TV industry is changing its format, we are yet to see multiple-season K-dramas as a norm. Sure, we have multiple seasons of Netflix Original K-dramas like Love Alarm and Kingdom, but it honestly depends on the streaming platform and if Korean productions are interested in picking up the show for a new season.
As for Netflix, it tends to look at views and drop-off rates before renewing or cancelling the show, along with the critical success. Some shows are instantly renewed like One Piece and Bridgerton while others take years such as The Watcher and The Victim’s Game.
Following the success of Sweet Home Season 1, the studio only greenlit it for 2 more seasons. With that being said, Sweet Home Season 3 is its last.
What do we know about Sweet Home Season 4?
Not much is known about Sweet Home Season 4 at the moment given that it is not happening. But if by some miracle, it is renewed, we would like to see how Hyun-su deals with Eun-yu who has turned into a neohuman. It can also explore more into the neohuman species and investigate whether Eun-hyuk actually regains his emotions or if he is acting.
If the show does return, you can expect a season with approximately 8 episodes, each lasting around an hour. But this is all speculation. Should anything change, we’ll be sure to update this page as soon as any new information comes in.
