So far—at least—a major character comes back from the dead by the final episode. Last season it was Jinman. I think this time it'll be Bale, but some others are hoping to see Woojin return.

Been there. I can empathize. Grr!

If only she had taught Woojin that trick!

Yep. She & her family paid the ultimate price for Jinman's "service".

It's called a torpedo.
Fun fact: The very first demonstration of wireless remote-control (of any kind) was back in 1898 at Madison Square Garden when genius inventor Nicola Tesla produced a radio-guided torpedo for the US Navy. (U.S. Patent No. 613,809)

This series is notable for bringing back a character who is believed to be dead for the last episode of the season. But I'm guessing that this time it'll be Bale. Because that has symmetry with Jin Man's S1 return.

In my experience, having an experienced mountaineer kick-stepping a steep path of "stairs" in the snow ahead of you actually makes it much easier to mountain-climb, than it is to hike up in the Summertime.

The precise moment when anyone else finds out that he won the jackpot, is when his plans to continue to work & live an "uneventful life" will start to go awry. He had best keep his mouth shut and hire an excellent attorney & accountant!

Season 2 is half-over and she still hasn't sold a single firearm

Sure. I hope the script makes him sympathetic with the capacity to care about someone (anyone) besides himself.

Netflix never streams special episodes. These weren't part of their original contract with SBS, and they don't continue the story.

And I can only think of one example of a special episode that actually contained additional scenes which expand the story. Mr. Queen had two special episodes, the first was the usual BTS, cast interviews, & outtakes but the second one (Mr. Queen: The Bamboo Forest) presented several dramatic "secret stories" of different characters. But it never appeared on Netflix. (I think it might be on Vicki or YouTube.)

She plays a Main Lead while his is a Supporting Character.

Two.

I really like many SYFI Channel original shows, regardless of their modest budgets or the state of the art of CGI at the time. Quality storytelling wins every time!

I'm impressed by her range. She just recently went all-out in Wonderfools, and also played unique characters in Castaway Diva, Hyper Knife, and (of course) Extraordinary Attorney Woo. I think she portrayed other over-the-top characters in some other dramas, also.

People are also saying AI was used during the flashbacks to NK training in eps 1 & 2.

But also, I've noticed people tend to conflate AI with CGI and forget that we still have humans creating special effects imaging too.

The backstory scenes were also very reminiscent of the movie 'Secretly Greatly' (2016).

Someone posted that his daughter & the ahjussis aren't in the next chapter(s), which makes me think they might skip ahead and adapt something from later on, when they return to the story.

No. I made that all up. I haven't read the webtoon, myself, and don't actually know any real spoilers. I just couldn't help myself. Sorry.

What were the aspects of the Kopiko product placement "that may have made viewers uncomfortable"? Was it the bit about how the caffeine candy helps snipers stay awake? Or was it when they gave some to a child? Sure this wouldn't have worked in a regular drama, but in a comedy-action caper, I think it was funny.
