A QR code on an outdoor ad is carrying footage TBS has not put in its official previews, which gives fans the material they are using to argue that Shinshi's real target is Adiel or Jamin rather than the tent.

An unreleased extended trailer for VIVANT Season 2 can be viewed through a QR code on the drama's outdoor advertisements, according to Magmix. The one-minute-36-second trailer includes a scene at roughly the 41-second mark showing a photo of Adiel, a character who died in Season 1, on a monitor behind Shinshi head Fan Linxing. Fans now speculate Shinshi is pursuing Adiel or his daughter Jamin, and some ask whether Fan Linxing is Jamin's mother. The second half of Season 2, the Special Squad Recovery Operation, begins airing October 4, 2026.
The officially released preview for Episode 19 runs 36 seconds. The version reachable through the QR code on some VIVANT outdoor advertisements runs 1 minute and 36 seconds, and the extra minute contains scenes the short trailer leaves out.
The scene that has drawn the most attention comes at about 41 seconds, when a photo of Adiel appears on a monitor behind Fan Linxing. Adiel died in Season 1, and Han had spent much of the story asking about the tent. Because Adiel shows up in the extended footage, the speculation has moved to whether the real objective is Adiel or his daughter Jamin, called the child of miracles. Some viewers have gone further and asked whether Fan Linxing is Jamin's mother.
The Special Squad Recovery Operation, the second half of Sunday Theater VIVANT Season 2, starts airing October 4, 2026. The character credits, cut from this card, are in the source.
