SBS’s Friday-Saturday drama ‘Hot Blooded Priest 2’ (written by Park Jae-bum, directed by Park Bo-ram) has formed a solid fan base with its exhilarating narrative that leaves no room for frustration, establishing itself as the hottest Friday-Saturday drama of late 2024, capturing both ratings and buzz.
In this regard, ‘Hot Blooded Priest 2’ has summarized three ‘dopamine explosion’ iconic scenes that highlight the drama's pursuit of ‘refreshing satisfaction’.
[‘Dopamine Explosion’ Iconic Scene 1] New and Old Avengers, Annihilation of the Drug Factory
The first ‘dopamine explosion’ iconic scene is the annihilation of the drug factory by the ‘New and Old Avengers’ showcased in episode 10. On a ship housing Kim Hong-sik’s (Sung-jun) drug factory, Gu Dae-young (Kim Sung-kyun), Gu Ja-young (Kim Hyung-seo), Oh Yo-han (Ko Gyu-pil), and Song Sak (Ahn Chang-hwan) were conducting an undercover operation with ‘Saggri-pa’ to rescue Kim Hae-il’s (Kim Nam-gil) kidnapped National Intelligence Service senior Jeong Seok-hee (Shin Eun-jung). They transformed Kim Hae-il and Park Kyung-sun (Lee Ha-nee) into Gu Ja-young’s shaman sister and brother-in-law to infiltrate the ship. After performing a group shaman ritual, they rescued Jeong Seok-hee and the elderly workers from the drug factory, taking down the drug cartel members with their respective weapons and annihilating the drug factory, providing a thrilling rush of satisfaction.

The ‘School Kids’ group fight’ scene in episode 11 delivered an even grander scale of justice, providing a thrilling experience. Gu Ja-young, appointed as the team leader of the drug team at Umaseo, along with his strongest supporters Oh Yo-han and Song Sak, and former police colleagues, ambushed Park Dae-jang’s (Yang Hyun-min) group of warriors who were stealing Kim Hong-sik’s black money. However, Gu Ja-young’s team, engaged in fierce combat, found themselves in a precarious situation due to being outnumbered. At that moment, students from the seminary, led by Chae Do-woo, appeared en masse, shouting “Fight!” and engaged in a physical struggle with the cartel members, utilizing their taekwondo skills. Lee Kyo-jang joined in, emphasizing the eradication of evil while holding a Molotov cocktail, clearly standing by Kim Hae-il’s side.
[‘Dopamine Explosion’ Iconic Scene 3] Kim Hae-il, Park Kyung-sun, Gu Dae-young, Grand Entrance to the Hearing
The final ‘dopamine explosion’ iconic scene is the moment just one second before Kim Hae-il, Park Kyung-sun, and Gu Dae-young enter the ‘Honey Jar Hearing’ at the end of episode 11. The three were unable to hide their disappointment after missing the villains Kim Hong-sik and Nam Du-heon (Seo Hyun-woo) due to a sudden incident at the Interpol red notice scene. They were further enraged upon discovering that one of the villains they missed, Nam Du-heon, had been using the honey jars he collected to blackmail high-ranking officials and had become the head of the Central District Prosecutor's Office's Special 2nd Division. Ultimately, Kim Hae-il and Park Kyung-sun, determined to uphold justice despite the dangers, reported Central District Prosecutor’s Office SDH Nam Du-heon for collusion with drug organizations, incitement to murder, and covering up drug crimes involving high-ranking officials' children, leading to news coverage and the nickname ‘Honey Jar Gate’, culminating in a hearing. Following this, the scene of Park Kyung-sun, Gu Dae-young, and Kim Hae-il confidently heading towards the hearing heightened curiosity as it hinted at a refreshing counterattack.
The production team stated, “’Hot Blooded Priest 2’ has made every effort to present an exhilarating narrative without any frustration, following the original ‘Hot Blooded Priest’ Season 1, which is the pioneer of refreshing dramas.” They added, “As Gu Damz takes down the core of the drug cartel, we ask for your continued interest and viewership to see if they can also take down the head of the drug cartel, Nam Du-heon, in the final episode airing on the 27th (Friday).”
Meanwhile, the final episode 12 of SBS’s Friday-Saturday drama ‘Hot Blooded Priest 2’ will air on the 27th at 10 PM.
