Has Good Boy been renewed for season 2?
At the time of writing, JTBC have not renewed Good Boy for season 2. Given the ratings over the weeks, it'll be interesting to see if they actually do renew this for a follow-up.
The ratings began with a respectable 4.8% share nationwide but since then, the show has been increasing in popularity with every passing week, with the later episodes hovering around 6% nationwide.
Regardless of ratings, it's extremely rare to find Korean dramas renewed for another season. That has changed in recent years but given the sheer wealth of talent in this that are sure to move onto other projects, we predict that Good Boy will not be renewed for a second season. On top of that, this is billed as a limited series which only has 1 season.
We'll be sure to update this section with more details as they become available.
What we know about season 2 so far:
Barely anything is known about season 2 right now. Given most Korean dramas are reserved to one season, it's rare to find these sort of shows renewed. With the rare exception of ongoing Netflix shows (Love ft. Marriage and Divorce, Hospital Playlist etc.) then it seems unlikely that this one will be renewed.
Having said that though, we have seen Taxi Driver and Tale of the Nine Tailed renewed recently, alongside Alchemy of Souls too. Given how steady the ratings are for this series, could we see this one buck the trend? It seems very unlikely that Good Boy will, but you never know! We'll be sure to update this section when we know more.

Oasis fans without tickets ‘storm metal barriers at Heaton Park' in attempt to see band perform as cops arrest 15 people
TICKETLESS Oasis fans were spotted trying to storm barriers and jump fences at Heaton Park in an attempt to see the band perform. The Britpop icons took to the stage in their hometown Manchester for the first time in 16 years on Friday night as an 80,000-strong crowd roared on. 6 6 6 However, there were countless fans who were unable to grab tickets for the sold-out event - with some opting to instead try to sneak into the concert. On Friday, a number of fans - reportedly as many as 50 - were seen armed with a ladder as they tried to scale a fence into the gig. One witness told Manchester Evening News they saw around 10 people make it in, although police later said that "no one made it through to the concert area". Then, last night, huge crowds were spotted trying to swarm through metal fencing to see the band's second performance in the park. Fans could be seen storming the fences at Heaton Park in droves as the Gallagher brothers took to the stage shortly after 8pm. The ticketless group were filmed running over a fallen metal fence panel before disappearing behind a line of trees. However, it is understood that none managed to make it through to the stage as they were later met with a second, much taller, line of wooden fencing. Police could then be seen intervening to prevent any further fans making their way into the gig without a ticket. It is understood that the tall fences and heavy security presence deterred those who were trying to chance their way inside. The huge crowds of ticketless fans had gathered at the spot - dubbed "Gallagher Hill" - after learning it had a view to the massive screens behind the band. Fans on the hill, nearby to the stage, could hear Oasis classics loud and clear throughout the night. Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, one fan said: "Henman Hill? Welcome to Gallagher Hill." Another added: "Amazing night on Gallagher Hill in Heaton Park for Oasis. Best atmosphere & lovely people!" A dispersal order is currently in place at Heaton Park and the surrounding areas, giving constables and police community support officers the power to disperse crowds and prevent nuisance. While Greater Manchester Police (GMP) said there was no immediate risk, it emphasised that safety is the "main priority". In a statement issued last night, police confirmed they had made 15 arrests over the first two days of Oasis' gigs at Heaton Park. 6 6 6 Nine arrests were made on Saturday, adding to the six made on Friday night. A GMP spokesperson said: "This evening, six people – five men and a woman in three separate incidents – were arrested on suspicion of fraud after attempting to access the venue with fake accreditation. "A further arrest was made of a man on suspicion of assaulting a member of security staff. "Two more men were arrested on suspicion of assault, one for section 18 inside the venue and one for section 47 outside." Assistant Chief Constable Matt Boyle said: "We have been planning for these events for several months, working with partners and the organisers to make sure everyone can enjoy the concerts safely. To that end, I'm pleased to say that the first two Oasis homecoming events have been a success. "What has been especially pleasing is how more than 100,000 people have enjoyed these iconic events safely and without trouble. "We will have a highly visible presence in and around Heaton Park, and across the city, to ensure the next three events continue to pass safely." Liam Gallagher booed by Oasis fans at first Manchester gig after dedicating song to 'greatest of all time' LIAM Gallagher was booed by fans at Oasis' first Manchester gig last night after he dedicated a song to the "greatest of all time". The iconic band performed their first of five nights at Heaton Park yesterday, belting out tunes in their hometown for the first time in 16 years. However, some fans were less than happy after the front man made a special dedication midway through the gig before a performance of D'You Know What I Mean. Before getting into the track, Liam addressed the crowd, saying: "I'd like to dedicate this to the greatest manager of all time, Mr Pep Guardiola." The mention of Guardiola, who has served as manager of the brothers' beloved football team Manchester City since 2016, sparked some boos from the crowd - likely from fans of rival team Manchester United. Liam began to imitate praying towards the manager, bending down and lowering his back while his hands were raised. As some of the crowd begins to boo, Noel responds by asking: 'Who you f***ing booing, who you f***ing booing?' Footage of the moment also shows a life-sized cut-out of the iconic manager with a Man City scarf around his neck on stage. Thankfully, fans - even those supporting rival teams - enjoyed the moment and broke into laughter as Liam launched into an emphatic version of D'You Know What I Mean. He added: "A number of people without tickets attempted to gain entry through a perimeter gate on Saturday night but failed to do so. "We continue to support the event organisers and the local authority with their plans preventing any unauthorised access to the arena site. "While arrests have thankfully been minimal, we have had to take some suspects to custody, including one after an alleged assault on a steward on Saturday night. We will not tolerate any abuse of anyone doing their job. "On Friday night we also dealt with a number of breaches of airspace restrictions involving drones where our officers seized five drones and spoke to two other pilots. "We continue to have airspace restrictions in place on the nights of the concerts and anyone found breaching the one-and-a-half-mile restriction zone could face prosecution."

"It's something Jess and I have experienced before, and to have the pipes with you is one of those ways you can give back. "People won't take money for their kindness, but they will take a sharing of your culture, and that's what this is. I did it when I was 19 and it went down a storm, but I didn't quite realise what I was doing then!" The duo hope to be playing the bagpipes in varied locations as they go across Europe and Asia, from local festivals to the likes of the Arctic Cathedral, the Norwegian landmark in Tromso. A keen piper since he became hooked on the instrument after a trip to the Edinburgh Tattoo as a child, Matt has experience of sharing the pipes in unusual and Jess lived in China for a spell, working again as teachers. While there Matt formed the country's first ever youth pipe band in Shanghai and found himself appearing on local TV to promote he is excited by the latest trip he's planned with his partner."Jess and I have wanted to do this for years. We've done loads of cycle tours before and with the experience we've got, it's the best situation I've ever been in to do this."Doing it with the pipes makes it more special though." A former navy officer, Matt and Jess decided to go travelling just three months after they began dating several years since worked as English teachers in Ecuador, lived in Paris and worked in China, while previous challenges saw the duo kayak the full length of the River Ganges in India and cycle from Kazakhstan to time the pedalling pursuit is in aid of Glasgow charity Refuweegee, setting themselves a target of raising £42,700 to reflect 42.7 million refugees displaced is a charity Matt believes shows Glasgow "at it's best", by helping others less the trip, which stops in the varied likes of Denmark, Kosovo, Turkey, Uzbekistan and India, has a number of planning issues to overcome."There's the logistics of what to take," he explains."We'll be going from snowy weather in Alta to the crazy heat of Europe and then it's winter in Kazakhtan – crossing there is the scariest section. It's just emptiness there. There are roads but it's a very empty bit of land." 'Women aren't allowed on bikes in Afghanistan' Other issues have involved countries they can't get into. As their plans are flexible, the couple were unable to secure entry into China, where an itinerary of their plans would have been problem ruled out travelling across Afghanistan, but it was nothing to do with any fears of violence in the country."We can't go through Afghanistan because women aren't allowed on bikes there.

However the couple have still plotted out a route that should - hopefully - see them finish up in that point, Matt hopes to have shared the pipes in every country they've stopped in along the way."You never know what'll happen when the pipes come out. At the back of our mind it is all about wanting to circumnavigate the globe but we know it will be exhausting."It'll be interesting to see where it takes us."
