What happens to Jeong Jin-su

WARNING: Spoilers ahead for Hellbound Season 2.

Hell Season 2 had an action-packed finale, with Min Hye-jin doing everything she could to rescue and protect Park Jung-ja, whose resurrection risked changing the world as much as her death. While Hell season 1 was about the world slowly accepting what Jung Jin-su was saying about the decrees as truth, season 2 of the supernatural K drama was about different groups trying to fill the void left by Jin-su's disappearance. Secretary Lee was working in the shadows to eradicate Arrowhead while weakening the New Trutha plan that involved Jung-ja's fate.

Kim Jeong-chil, who replaced Jin-su as president of New Truth, struck a deal with the government through Secretary Lee. He would use Park Jung-ja to launch a new belief system – one that would still be based on the ideas preached by Jin-su, but would frame Arrowhead's followers as non-believers. However, realizing that the New Truth was in the hands of someone incapable, Jin-su sided with Arrowhead and stormed the building during Jung-ja's speech to the world. During the fight between New Truth, Arrowhead and Sodo, Ji-su had to face her inner demons. – literally.

What happened to Jung Jin-su (is he an enforcer now?)

Jung Jin-su turned into a monster

Jung Jin-su's resurrection in Hell was a major storyline in season 2, although most people didn't know that the former president of New Truth had died. In Hell Season 2, Episode 1, Before returning to the world of the living, Jin-su sees visions from the perspective of different people in different times and places. One of these visions was as if he was his mother's lover on the day she decided to abandon her son to run away with that man. Ji-su also had a vision in which he was about to be burned.

Jin-su's time in Hell – whatever Hell is in the world Hell – it was clearly not the best of experiences. The character was still hunted by visions of monsters even after being resurrected, which is why he was so obsessed with finding Jung-ja and talking to her. Jung-ja was the only other known case of resurrection, meaning she was the only person who could understand what Jin-su was going through. However, Jung-ja revealed that she didn't see monsters and that she never forgot who she was. This made Jin-su extremely angry and frustrated.

That's when Jin-su began to transform into the same creature he couldn't stop seeing visions of – an executioner. It seems that, unlike Jung-ja, Jin-su was never sure of who he was as a person and had a sense of guilt and regret. Considering that Jung-ja managed to return from Hell and remember her children, Jin-su barely knew who he was and continued to be hunted by the monsters. He remained a coward and somehow turned into an executioner, disappearing from the living world shortly after completely transforming into a creature.

Senior Secretary Lee's Plan in Hellbound Season 2 Explained

Secretary Lee wanted to manipulate both sides

Secretary Lee was a major player in Season 2 and tried to manipulate all three Hell factions. Although the president never appears on the program, Secretary Lee was acting in the government's best interests. In other words, she wanted to eradicate Arrowhead and at the same time reduce the power and political influence of the New World and Sodo. However, the government was aware that it was too late to eradicate the New Truth. More than a political group, The New Truth was now the most practiced religion in the country.

This is why the government wanted to create a slightly different belief system that would still be considered part of the New Truth, but that would alienate the Arrowhead, who seemed to be by far the most dangerous group. Secretary Lee believed that the key to doing this was Jung-ja, as his resurrection could be used as a starting point for a new religion. This is why Jung-ja's speech at the end of the Hell season two should be just as important. However, Secretary Lee finally decided that playing along with the New Truth was too dangerous.
