The first episode captured the Counters doing their thing – saving people from demon attacks and trying to level up their powers. Then, in episode 2, Pil Kwang (played by Kang Ki Young), Kelly (Kim Hieora), and Wong (Kim Hyun Wook) hit Korean soil after causing havoc in China. The tension kicked up a notch with firefighter Ma Joo Seok (Jin Seon Kyu) going all dark after losing his wife to a demon. These demons weren’t playing around either – they became even stronger by stealing powers from the Chinese Counters.
This is such a heartbreaking scene, Hana and So Mun consoling him. He didn't just lost his wife but also their unborn child #TheUncannyCounter2 #TheUncannyCounter2EP2 pic.twitter.com/v0NuOw2XeV

I don't know why I suddenly felt that one of them is going to die this season as soon as Mun said "Everyone in this photo will be alive until the end"

The Counters got themselves a fresh face on the team – Na Jeok Bong (Yoo In Soo), a young countryman. Ga Mo Tack (Yoo Jun Sang) thought he was a perfect fit since he’s all about helping others. They welcomed him warmly, and now Jeok Bong is officially part of the crew, raising expectations about his upcoming chemistry with the Korean Counters.
