The supporting cast line-up for Tokai TV & WOWOW Spring 2017 drama "Hanzai Shoukougun Season 2" starting on 11 June at 10pm on Sundays via WOWOW has been announced. The drama is based on the three-part "Shoukougun" novel series by writer Nukui Tokuro where "Shissou Shoukougun" (Disappearance Syndrome) and "Yuukai Shoukougun" (Kidnap Syndrome) will form Season 1 while "Satsujin Shoukougun" (Murder Syndrome) will be made into Season 2.

While exploring the lives of these men, the topic of whether revenge is right or wrong is discussed in this suspense drama.

In Season 2, Kaburagi's past where his girlfriend was killed when he was still underage and his subsequent transformation into a professional killer to take revenge for her is revealed as he gets a new assignment to kill someone.
