Will Marry My Husband Season 2 happen? Here's what we know so far

The renewal of Marry My Husband seems unlikely, as even a year after the release of season 1, there has been no official confirmation or announcement from tvN or Prime Video regarding a second season. Moreover, according to the season finale, the storyline wrapped up with hope, ending the arc of the major characters— Kang Ji-won and Ji-Hyuk, along with Min-hwan and Su-min.

Some reports also reason that Korean weekday dramas like this typically run for only one season (16–20 episodes) and are not usually renewed, especially if the story originates from a self-contained webtoon without a sequel. Read on to dive deeper.

Will Marry My Husband Season 2 happen?

As mentioned, Season 1 concludes with full closure. Therefore, a season 2 seems highly unlikely. Ji-won and Ji-hyuk pass on their fates successfully to someone else and live a joyful, rewritten life with a family. The main antagonist, Su-min, faces the final consequences of her actions and gets arrested by the end of the show, while Min-hwan is dead in the new timeline, instead of Kang. Therefore, we can say that all key plotlines and character arcs are resolved as per the webtoon’s ending.

Reviews and storyline assessments emphasize that the core narrative is concluded, meaning a sequel would require wholly new plots or characters. Even some fans and reviewers acknowledge that the new season isn't necessary, as they are happy with the satisfying ending of the show. Others think that season 2 could explore the fate of some interesting side characters like Eun‑ho and Hui‑yeon.

How did season 1 of Marry My Husband end?

By the end of season 1 of Marry My Husband, Ji-Won and Hyuk are seen celebrating their 10th anniversary on 12 April 2023, the day that had marked the death of Ji-Won in the original timeline. The blue hearts vanish, suggesting that the characters have successfully passed on their fate to someone else, for better or worse. This change in fate has also created some ripple effects on others' lives, with Min-hwan, Ji-won's ex-husband, being dead in place of Ji-won.

In the climax, when Su-min comes to attack Ji-won, she is prepared this time and disarms her using her Judo skills. Eventually, the police arrest Su-min for attempting to kill Ji-won and falsely framing someone else for Min-Hwan's murder.

If by any chance the show gets renewed, potential directions could include exploring the family life of Ji-won and Ji-Hyuk with three children and careers. The show also focuses more on the supporting characters' arcs, like the relationships between Eun‑ho and Hui‑yeon, or Ju‑ran and Suk‑jun.

If renewed, season 2 of Marry My Husband would need an entirely new conflict or antagonist, since the original threats have been resolved, and season 1 doesn't set any foundation for a new season.
