The acclaimed K-drama revolves around teenagers under the age of eighteen committing serious crimes and their journey through the legal system.

The show follows a prickly judge who hates juvenile criminals and resents handing out more lenient punishments because of their age.

According to South Korean media outlet Star News, Netflix has confirmed that season 2 of their crime-drama has been cancelled.

Casting directors also claimed that the second season's production has been cancelled.

The official Korean drama casting twitter account tweeted: "Netflix drama Juvenile Justice S2 production reportedly has been cancelled."

Twitter was filled with upset fans who expressed their frustration over the disappointing news.

One wrote: "Why did they cancel Juvenile Justice 2?!"

Another added: "How could they just cancel Juvenile Justice 2 like that?"
