“The Fiery Priest” Season 2 has offered a sneak peek of BIBI’s character!
SBS’s “The Fiery Priest,” which first aired in 2019 and recorded a peak viewership rating of 22.0 percent, is about a Catholic priest with anger management issues and a cowardly detective who work together to solve a murder case. Kim Nam Gil, Honey Lee, Kim Sung Kyun, and more from Season 1 will be reprising their roles in the upcoming season. In Season 2, they travel to Busan to confront the country’s top drug cartel in an unflinching joint investigation.
BIBI draws attention in a scene where she plays her most carefree and comedic role yet: Detective Goo Ja Young of the Busan Police Agency’s drug investigation team. In the scene, Goo Ja Young is on a mission to catch a suspect she has been tracking. Wearing a stylish police vest, she displays a fierce expression as she apprehends the suspect in just one second, proving she is perfect for the detective role.
Throughout the investigation, Goo Ja Young shifts between a tough demeanor and candid, no-filter comments, highlighting her refreshingly blunt personality. Off duty, she shows a quirky charm with her silly expressions, showcasing her versatility. Viewers are eager to see how Goo Ja Young will team up with Kim Hae Il (Kim Nam Gil).
In her first appearance on “The Fiery Priest 2,” BIBI shared her excitement, saying, “I was a big fan of Season 1. My grandmother loved it so much that she always had it on at home. She used to say, ‘I hope to see Hyung Seo (BIBI’s real name) on TV,’ and her words stuck with me. Then, the production team reached out to me. It was such a great opportunity, so I immediately said yes.”
BIBI also reflected on her first shoot in Busan, stating, “I was very nervous, but I tried to adapt quickly. Fortunately, everyone created a relaxed atmosphere, making the filming enjoyable.” She expressed her determination to entertain viewers, saying, “I want to help relieve their stress,” and asked for support: “We are working hard, so please show us a lot of interest and encouragement.”
The production team said, “BIBI is a versatile actress who transforms into completely different characters in each of her projects. She is truly like a blank canvas.” They also added, “We ask viewers to look forward to the first broadcast and see how Goo Ja Young, the new hero in Season 2, will team up with the existing ‘Gudam Avengers.’”
“The Fiery Priest 2” is set to premiere on November 8 at 10 p.m. KST as the follow-up to “The Judge from Hell.” Stay tuned!
