Vampire Prosecutor 2 begins filming
by javabeans
Huzzah! Woo, is it hot in here? *Fans self*
This may be the first K-drama sequel I’m this excited about (or excited at all), but who could resist the sexy, stylish, cleverly scripted, and skillfully shot paranormal-procedural Vampire Prosecutor? Season 2 has been buzzed about almost as soon as Season 1 wrapped (or, in fact, before that), and now it is almost upon us. (This fall!) And now we’ll have to make do until then with the one tantalizing, all-too-short preview clip below.
Thanks be, all of our main cast members are back for more — because who could replace Yeon Jung-hoon as the sexiest badass bloodsucker in dramaland? Lee Young-ah is back as his prosecutor teammate, which is great because I thought their dynamic was very fun to watch — a little cheeky, a little flirty, with a little bit of raw connection in fleeting moments — and would love to see it develop further. And yay for Lee Won-jong, coming back as coarse cop Soon-bum, ready to resume the bromance with his vampy best buddy.
Gaaah. So. Sexy.
Most of the promo clip is pretty self-explanatory, but there’s one bit of copy that piques my interest (even more, I mean): as the hands holding wine goblets converge, we get the tagline “Cold blood, meet bad blood.” Hmm, could that have to do with the new Big Bad in town? Last season gave us a season-long running arc that culminated in a Vampire vs. Vampire face-off, and this season promises another showdown. Week to week, our prosecutor team will continue solving cases and kicking asses. And continue being cheeky and adorable too, I presume. I hope.
The first season boasted a pretty awesome directorial flair, so the one thing that has me nervous is that the director has switched: instead of PD Kim Byung-soo who went on to direct Queen In-hyun’s Man, we’re getting PD Yoo Sun-dong, whose credits include Quiz King and Death Bell 2. I don’t know how I feel about that. I’m definitely disappointed because PD Kim is awesome, but I’m hoping that since Season 1 had such a distinctive style and mood, the new director will do his best to continue it. This is a pretty buzzworthy sequel — the first season had impressively high ratings numbers, hitting 4% which was at the time the highest ever on cable, and still among the top performers — so I can’t see the producers throwing the project to someone they didn’t have faith in. *Crosses fingers and prays* The writers have stayed on from last season.
Vampire Prosecutor 2 began filming last week and will premiere on OCN in September. *Marks calendar*

Awwwwww yeaaaaaaah. So excited for this season! Our leading lady looks so different with the longer hair style. Almost didn't recognize her but she's still cute and am hoping her relationship with VP develop further too.
Now, the director switch is dubious though, I must admit. But he worked on Quiz King? That makes me a little less nervous as I really loved that movie. Very smart and very hilarious.

Yoo Jeong-in (played by Lee Yeong-ah) was not uglyfied. She believed that look made her like a serious prosecutor. I think she started questioning her style after the coroner and her had the argument about dressing for the workplace.

Yeah, I was suuuuper disappointed to hear that the director's not coming back, because I loved the visuals in VP1 and QIHM.
But the main thing is to keep the same writer - does anyone know about that?

July 25, 2012 at 6:13 PM
I have no idea but I hope so. I feel like the same writer should have more story ideas to fill up another 12 episodes, though.
As for visuals, I'm sure they'll stay slick and cool. Have you ever seen Quiz King? It's a great comedy/procedural movie and there is a pretty cool slow-mo crash scene that is just awesome. If he's bringing that to the VP2 table, then I'll be a happy camper especially since we know VP loves the slow-mo ahaha~

Looking at the picture of the female lead makes me very happy. Our VP needs to see how yummy she is! The bigger the temptation is the better.

Oh no! PD switch...? But I LOVED the directing in VP and Queen In Hyun's Man.
Not many dramas do sequels, and when the good ones get a chance to have a Part 2, I'm excited and yet not so excited (Dream High 2 was, um, disappointing). The promo looks awesome xD

Did anyone notice that the teaser looks a little more .... gimmicky? I mean, there's way too much makeup on YJH's face, and that red-flame background...I dunno. I kinda preferred the understated vampiriness of the first season. I really really hope this new director is just as good as the last one.

That's what sort of threw me off about some of these teaser pics - seems like they're going more for a summertime horror angle rather than dark and gritty.
I hope the sequel can live up to the first season!

But Dream High 2 was really rushed D: I think even JYP admitted that. It was also weird because it was a drama that really didn't need a sequel.
VP on the other hand NEEDS one. There are so many questions left unanswered. Am I gonna ave to re-watch that show? Probably will. But, I'm nervous too :S There's something about the word "sequel" that fills everyone with excitement and dread,lol.

thank youveeeeryyy much javabeans, for the amazing news and the sexycool pics.
Ok, the news are not new news , but with a deadline it sounds more officially. They can not take it back from us now, can`t they???
And I have the feeling, it´s the first REAL second season (you know, same cast, same writer etc. like first season) of a k-drama. I know, it´s not the first second season ever, but k-drama-sequels are damn rar somehow. If this sequel gets high ratings too, then maybe, maybe we will get more sequels of other dramas. I hope so. (City Hunter Season II - where are you????)
Okay. The summer is hot, the autuum seems to be be getting hotter: I am waiting for your return - sexy vampire prosecutor. *Marks calendar also*

Just watched the preview (it wouldn't load when I was here before), and is it just me, or does this season look more vampy than the last one? I could get behind that, as long as we don't lose the cheek.
Eee! So. Excited.

July 25, 2012 at 4:26 PM
I'm excited. The first season was one of my favourite dramas from last year. The "bad blood" in the teaser may refer to this apparent new rival that our prosecutor is going to have. I assume he's also a vampire, but if he's also a man of law that'd be doubly more interesting. Can't wait for September!

This is a relief. I wanted the whole team back; they need a young innocent as part of this team of veterans. I know the female lead is supposed to be new, but how "new" can a person really be when her father is a leader in the Korean mafia!
Whenever, I need a smile, I go back to the team picture at the end of episode 10 (see opening screenshot of dramabeans recap http://www.dramabeans.com/2011/12/vampire-prosecutor-episode-10/). This makes me remember how funny the show was, as well as how I enjoyed them coming together as a team.

What is that horrendous mop on his head? :(
The vampire prosecutor's appeal was in part due to the character's clean lines, lines that suggested a certain sharp, no-nonsense ethos. That curly mop top - what vampire prosecutor has time to maintain such a coif. And coif it is.
