Release

[edit]

The first season was originally set to be released on Netflix on April 5, 2019[3][4] but the release was postponed to April 11 out of respect for the victims of the Gangwon Province Fire.[5][6]

The second season, Persona: Sulli, will be released as a feature film in the second half of 2023 and is divided into two parts: the first one, titled 4: Clean Island, stars Sulli, while the second one is a documentary/interview titled Dear Jinri. In particular, Dear Jinri will premiere at the 28th Busan International Film Festival.[7]

Production

[edit]

Mystic Story revealed on October 23, 2019 that they had decided to temporarily suspend the production of the second season as Sulli, who was cast as the main lead, was in the midst of filming the second out of five planned episodes for the series when she died.[8][9][10]

Reception

[edit]

Persona was the sixth most popular program on Netflix in Korea in 2019.[11]
