Is Netflix’s 'Genie, Make a Wish' Returning for Season 2? Everything We Know So Far
Netflix’s Genie, Make a Wish was the streaming equivalent of finding a lamp in your algorithm, unexpected, glittery, and oddly life-affirming. The show’s charming chaos, from the wish-granting escapades to the perfectly-timed punchlines, made viewers feel like they were part of the magic themselves. Every scene sparkled brighter than a newly polished genie bottle, and the emotional undertones gave it depth beyond the glitter. Naturally, as the credits rolled, one question hovered like a stubborn spirit in the air, will there be a Season 2?
Because the series cast such a powerful spell, fans are now wildly curious to know whether Netflix will summon the genie again.
Will there be a Genie, Make A Wish Season 2?

As of now, Netflix has not made any official announcement regarding a second season of Genie, Make a Wish. The finale dangled hope like a shiny trinket, hinting that the story might continue, but industry norms say otherwise. Korean dramas are notorious for ending after one season, no matter how many viewers clutch their lamps and wish for more. Thus, while the cliffhanger teased possibilities, the odds of a sequel remain as elusive as a punctual genie.
Despite a promising premise and a star-studded cast featuring Bae Suzy and Kim Woo-bin, Genie, Make a Wish struggled to maintain its charm. Religious controversies, an uneven script, and chaotic tonal shifts left critics more horrified than enchanted. What was meant to be a magical romance often resembled a cosmic misunderstanding, proof that even genies cannot grant immunity from poor writing.
As faith in a Season 2 grows in hopeful fans, so does the imagination, proof that human hope might outlive even a nine-century genie.
What would Genie, Make A Wish season 2 be about?
If Genie, Make a Wish were ever to return, it would likely open its lamp to a new realm of divine drama. Now immortal, Ki Ka-young and Iblis could embark on missions that test not just humanity but their own emotional endurance. Picture them navigating wishful mortals, meddlesome angels, and fellow genies with questionable manners, all while learning the burdens of eternity. Love may be immortal, but patience certainly is not, especially when one’s coworkers include celestial bureaucrats.

However, the odds of this glittering fantasy reappearing are slimmer than a genie’s waistline. Korean dramas rarely return for a second act, and Genie, Make a Wish ended with both closure and controversy. Between its cultural backlash and satisfyingly radiant finale, it might simply remain one of those rare K-dramas that had a happy ending, lamp polished, lessons learned, and viewers mildly bewildered but content.
