Season 1’s core cast is confirmed to return, including Lee Dong-wook as Jin-man—an enigmatic former mercenary and the founder of Murder Help—and Kim Hye-jun as his niece Jian, whose emotional depth and fierce determination captivated audiences. Jo Han-sun reprises his role as Veil, the menacing mercenary for Babylon, along with Geum Hae-na as Min-hye, Lee Tae-young as Brother, the Murder Help manager and trusted aide, and Kim Min as Pasin, the Muay Thai mentor and fellow mercenary.
New additions to the cast raise anticipation even further. Internationally acclaimed actress Hyunri joins as Q, the team leader of Babylon’s East Asia division. Known for her roles in Pachinko, Chance and Imagination, and Tokyo Vice Season 2, Hyunri brings global recognition to the series. Accompanying her is Masaki Okada, lauded for his performance in Oscar-nominated Drive My Car. He will portray Jay, Q’s brother and Babylon’s co-commander.
Jung Yoon-ha, known for roles in Casino and Exhumation, joins the lineup as Kusanagi, the formidable head of Babylon’s East Asia division. With these powerful new characters, Season 2 expands the universe and further explores the volatile dynamics between Murder Help and Babylon.
As filming kicks off, fans eagerly await how these new alliances and rivalries will unfold. A Shop for Killers Season 2 promises to amp up emotional gravity, character arcs, and thrilling combat in its 2026 return on Disney+.
