One of Netflix’s weekend k-dramas — alongside Tomorrow and Our Blues — My Liberation Notes is a pretty exception slice-of-life drama with a superb script and layered characters. Now that we’re closing in on the end of the 16-episode first season, fans who have been following along may be wondering whether the show has been renewed or cancelled, so here’s everything we know in that regard:

Renewed or canceled status – will there be a My Liberation Notes Season 2?

Status: TBC

There hasn’t been any word yet about the future of My Liberation Notes. While the show has retained and even increased viewership on JTBC in its native Korea, Netflix Top 10 doesn’t feature it in the most popular non-English TV shows, even though both Our Blues and Tomorrow have made the cut. That’s a real shame since for my money this is the best show of the three, but perhaps its lack of a crowd-pleasing hook and its relatively sedate pace will prove to be its undoing.
