Summary
Sweet Homeseason 3’s trailer delivered a moment I’ve been waiting for since the end of the first season, after which the show was never the same. One ofNetflix’s best K-dramasis coming to an end asSweet Homewill conclude with season 3. While season 2 was not as well received as season 1, I’m excited to see how the series will end. Much has yet to be revealed about Hyun-su’s final battle, but the firstSweet Homeseason 3 traileroffers some clues regarding where the show is heading.
Song Kang leads thecast ofSweet Home, which includes a lot of fan-favorite actors and up-and-coming stars. However, some of the season 1 characters were not in season 2 or barely appeared in the series’ second chapter, including Lee Do-hyun’s Eun-hyeok. Fortunately, not only is Eun-hyeok returning, butSweet Homehas already shown a glimpse of a long-awaited reunion four years in the making.
Sweet Home Season 3’s Trailer Includes The Long-Awaited Hyun-su & Eun-hyeok Reunion
Song Kang and Lee Do-hyun are finally in the same scene again
Although it’s a very brief moment,Song Kang’s Hyun-suand Lee Do-hyun’s Eun-hyeok share a scene in theSweet Homeseason 3 trailer. Their reunion had already been confirmed by a promotional image featuring Hyun-su, Eun-yu, and Eun-hyeok, butSweet Homeseason 3’ marketing campaign had yet to show any scenes or clips featuring both Song Kang and Lee Do-hyun. After all they went through in season 1,I’m incredibly excited to see Hyun-su and Eun-hyeok interacting again.Eun-hyeok was thought to be dead at the end of season 1 and only returned in season 2’s final scene.
Sweet Home season 3 releases July 19 on Netflix.
It’s unclear how Eun-hyeok will fit intoSweet Home’s story now that he has returned as a neohuman. Eun-hyeok had gone through the cocoon stage of the monsterization process and might now be as powerful as Hyun-su, if not more. The scene in which Hyun-sun and Eun-hyeok appear together in the trailer sees the former saying he will stop Sang-won“no matter what,”suggesting the two characters are on the same side. Eun-hyeok and Hyun-su are wearing similar suits, but not much can be inferred about where they are or what they are doing.
Sweet Home’s Song Kang & Lee Do-hyun Haven’t Been In A Scene Together Since 2020
Eun-hyeok only returned at the end of season 2
Almost four years will have passed since Hyun-su and Eun-hyeok reunite by the timeSweet Homeseason 3 premiers. The first season ofSweet Homewas based on a webtoon of the same name and ended with Eun-hyeok deciding to stay behind as the military attacked the Green Home building. Just before the building collapsed, Eun-hyeok was shown to be bleeding from the nose. Noise bleeding is a common early symptom of monsterization, which is why I hoped that Eun-hyeok could still be alive somehow, even if as a neohuman.

Oh Jung-se
All the theories regarding Eun-hyeok’s fate were confirmed true inSweet Homeseason 2’s ending, during which the character emerged from the wreckages of the Green Home and smiled as he walked toward the camera.Sweet Homeseason 2 introduced many new characters and even sidelined Hyun-su, to the point it almost felt like a completely different show. This is one of the reasons why I’m so excited about Eun-hyeok’s return in season 3.Lee Do-hyun’s characterwas one of season 1’s best and can help the series feel more familiar after such a divisive second season.
What Will Hyun-su & Eun-hyeok’s Relationship In Sweet Home Season 3 Be Like?
Eun-hyeok is now a neohuman like Hyun-su
I’m very curious to see how different Hyun-su and Eun-hyeok’s dynamic in season 3 will be compared to season 1. In the first season ofSweet Home, Eun-hyeok placed himself as a natural leader and helped protect those in the building the best he could. Eun-hyeok was incredibly smart and came up with clever ways of fixing the problems they ran into, including what to do with Hyun-su. WhereasEun-hyeok was all about order and keeping everyone safe, Hyun-su was the troublemaker whose action could not be predicted. Still, they made for a great duo.
Sweet Home Season 3 Will Be Its Last, And I Couldn’t Be Happier About It
Netflix has confirmed that Sweet Home will conclude with season 3, and that is actually great news for the horror K-drama starring Song Kang.
The fact that Eun-hyeok is now a neohuman just like Hyun-su means their relationship can be even more interesting in season 3. Eun-hyeok’s goals and allegiances remain to be revealed, but I hope that he will be one of the good guys. Everyone thinks Eun-hyeok is dead, including his sister. Although Eun-yu initially believed that Eun-hyeok was her“guardian angel”protecting her from the shadows, she later found out that it was actually Hyun-su who was watching over her.Sweet Home’s final season has a lot to tackle, but I predict that Eun-hyeok will have a major role in it.
