Season 2 lands viewers “The White Lotus”-style into a new locale and with a new cast (Wong and Yeun remain as executive producers), and refines the concept of payback into something that, at least initially, feels more restrained than its predecessor. Quickly, though, the story spirals into a series of events that prove to be just as deliciously wicked and twisty as its predecessor.

The actors keep it real enough, as their characters, forced to grow a little, are dragged into the same space for the climax, as the series revs up into a kind of conspiracy thriller, before a coda set eight years later finds them variously arranged. As in the less conclusive first season, it feels engineered to deliver the characters to happy, or relatively happy, endings, and to send viewers out not regretting their investment of time.

The new bosses’ high-class problems are always tertiary to the Josh-Lindsay-Ashley-Austin quadfecta and never stop feeling tacked-on, even when plot contrivances transport the entire ensemble to Seoul for the finale. But they’re just present enough to distract from the core conflict, transforming the season from a group character study into a corporate espionage thriller such that neither half feels fully fleshed-out. It’s a shame, because before they peter out, there are threads worth following.
