The original main character in the comic called Shinichi Izumi (Masaki Suda), who was replaced by Jung Su In (Jeon So Nee), appeared in the final episode of the show.

It surprised a lot of fans as well as satisfied original comic readers. Because of this, a door is left open for questions whether there would be a second or third season event for the Netflix show.


Has 'Parasyte: The Grey' Been Renewed For Season 2?

Because of the rather open ending in the six-episode drama, many believe that a Season 2 is coming to the small screens in no time to further satisfy their audiences.

However, Netflix hasn't released any word on whether "Parasyte: The Grey" will be renewed for a second season, especially that the series has only been available for streaming.

In retrospect, horror K-dramas like "Parasyte: The Grey" including "Sweet Home," "Gyeongseong Creature" and "All of Us Are Dead" have been renewed in the past.
