The trailer hints at two possible storylines for this season. Bullies push an overweight recruit until he snaps. Someone attacks a soldier for being a drag queen. Amidst the heartbreaking scenes, the series’ main message flashes across the screen: “Nothing will ever change, unless we do something.”
The first season of D.P. received praise for addressing heavy issues such as bullying and toxic masculinity in the military. It has had a significant impact on South Korean society, raising awareness of the issue of military hazing and bullying. The K-drama has also been credited with helping to change the way that the Korean military deals with these issues.
