Weak Hero Class 2 is set to carry forward the storyline of its predecessor while introducing fresh faces. The new season continues the story of Yeon Si-eun, a high-achieving student who transfers to Eunjang High School following a violent incident involving a friend.
In the upcoming episodes, Si-eun faces new threats while dealing with the trauma of being unable to protect his friend in the past. Park Ji-hoon reprises his role as Si-eun, joined by Ryeoun, Choi Min-young, Yoo Soo-bin, Bae Na-ra, and Lee Min-jae in key roles. During the press meet, Park Ji-hoon described his character, saying (via K-Entertainment News):
“It’s a story about a boy growing up as he confronts even greater violence. I tried to express Yeon Si-eun’s emotions more deeply. Unlike ‘Class 1,’ I wanted to infuse a sense of desperation into his gaze. Please look forward to the new friends he meets and the new battles he faces."
The second season of Weak Hero Class will premiere on April 25.
