Yoo’s character, Jang Kyun, is described as a “clever and driven South Korean NIS agent, highly skilled with a subversive sense of humor and willing to go to any lengths to protect those he cares about.”

Additionally, the following nine cast members have been added to Season 2 in recurring roles:

* James Purefoy (The Following) as Oliver Bonner-Jones, a charming, rich, British businessman who lives in a world between legal and illegal

* Felix Solis (The Rookie: Feds) as Tom Wallace, a senior diplomat in the State Department tasked with bringing American hostages home

* Alana Hawley Purvis (Charmed) as Amanda Fern, a stern and by-the-book CIA Station Chief in Seoul who is resistant to taking any instruction from a CIA operative

According to Netflix, the show’s second season finds Owen “pulled into a life-threatening espionage situation in South Korea, only to realize that the bigger threat just might be coming from inside the Agency.”
