D.P. Season 2 continues to explore the important issue of military service abuse and bullying in South Korea, but it falls short compared to its predecessor. To truly understand the story, one must watch Season 1, which was more compelling and emotionally impactful. Season 2 feels like a mere wrap-up of the previous events rather than introducing new and captivating storylines.

The drama retains its focus on the "Deserter Pursuit" division and their mission to retrieve soldiers who have deserted. Although Season 2 introduces a few new characters, it spends too much time revisiting past events, leading to some unnecessary callbacks that make the plot feel bloated.

Despite this, the performances are commendable, and the production quality remains high. The actors deliver strong portrayals, but one standout performance comes from Bae Na Ra as Jang Seong Min/Nina. His remarkable acting brings depth and emotion to the character.

As a non-South Korean viewer, the series still offers valuable insights into the military service system. However, Season 2 lacks the impact and novelty of the first season. One might wonder if there will be more seasons since the male lead still has 364 days left before discharge. Overall, while D.P. Season 2 has its merits, it fails to match the brilliance of its predecessor.
