“The pressure on me is huge now, with such a big audience waiting for a Season 2,” Hwang recently explained to the Hollywood Reporter.

“Because of all that pressure, I haven’t decided yet whether or not I should do another season. But if you look at it in a positive way, because so many people loved Season 1 and are expecting good things for Season 2, there are people everywhere in the world offering their opinions about where the show should go.”
