The new season of D.P. is here, and this season takes a much calmer approach in comparison to its aggressive first counterpart. If you haven’t seen the first season, there will be a lot you won’t understand in this season, as it is a direct continuation of the first. The show follows a young man named Jun-Ho, who quickly becomes part of the Deserter Pursuit department of the military as he joins his mandatory military appointment. His partner is Sergeant Han Ho-Yeol, who is much more eccentric than the calm and resolute Jun-Ho. It’s evident very quickly that they make a great team and actually care to save the deserters rather than get them into any kind of trouble.
