2.5/4
Fans of the 1st season of “The Uncanny Counter" will be happy to see that the whole gang (+1) is back. This 2nd season is good enough. But it's also a reminder that K-dramas are traditionally made to finish after one season, Perhaps this should've, too. Go to Full Review Pierce Conran South China Morning Post 09/06/2023
2.5/5
In the end, the why of it all was replaced by a resounding “who cares?” There was a time when we cared about these colourful counters and their zippy duels with evil spirits on earth, but those days appear to be long gone. Go to Full Review Johnny Loftus Decider 08/07/2023
There are fun bits of lore sprinkled throughout The Uncanny Counter, as we learn about the links between humans and the Yung spirits, and the show’s lighthearted mood makes it feel at times like a comfort watch. Go to Full Review Nathan Sartain Ready Steady Cut 08/07/2023
4/5
With plenty of skilfully choreographed high-stakes action scenes, a genuinely entertaining overarching story, and a fresh set of antagonists who make for authentic foils to the heroes, it’s easy to get swept up in this world of evil spirits and Counters. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Paola P. @zahury Nov 4 The uncanny encounter for the first season was amazing very well made and entertaining. The second season was really good, i loved the addition of new members, Although, at some point the story feels like it was dragged on, but i loved it personally. I really hope they could make another season, new powers. New members. It's Worth watching, highly recommended. See more Rida M Apr 27 Damn! The first season was amazing. But in second season the character “Jeok-bong” getting on my nerves. Pathetic , silly and childish overacting. Everytime when he popped up on my screen my blood just start boiling. 🤌🏻🤌🏻 See more Vince L 12/25/2024 Disappointment after a good Season 1. Too much CGI, draggy, slow, frustrating and obvious plot. I guess Netflix had too much input to it. See more Kayla Simone B 11/01/2024 What a disappointing follow up to season 1. See more Crazy C 07/16/2024 I thought this season was awful compared to the first. There were some annoying things in the first season but overall it made for an interesting show. This season feels like those episodes in the middle that are terrible and only there to kill some time. Except that is the whole season!!!! Urgh!!! And they added the most annoying character. I was expecting someone really different and cool. But no, they found their version of Jar Jar. I would not recommend. Keep the good memories of season one you may have!
