"The second season of Netflix's original 'Kingdom' will be released in March next year," the US-based company said in a press release.
In the new season, the story will revolve around the crown prince, Lee Chang, who returns to the palace and delves into a conspiracy.
The main cast of the first season -- Ju Ji-hoon, Bae Doo-na and Ryu Seung-ryong -- will reprise their roles in the second season, according to Netflix. (Yonhap)
