On April 25, 2025, Netflix released the highly anticipated high school action drama Weak Hero Class 2, starring Park Ji-hoon, Ryeo-un, Lee Min-jae, Lee Jun-young, and Choi Min-young.
The drama begins with Yeon Si-eun, played by Park Ji-hoon, witnessing students being bullied at his new school. He experiences flashbacks of the time when Ahn Su-ho, portrayed by Choi Hyun-wook, got into a fight and fell into a vegetative state in the first season. This left Yeon Si-eun devastated, leading him to undergo medical therapy.
Although Yeon Si-eun was on medications, he struggled to sleep. Every day he saw students resorting to violence to establish power. He often thought about his friend Ahn Su-ho. The ending of Weak Hero Class 1 concluded on a heartbreaking note, and the second season began by revisiting those emotions, pulling viewers into a whirlpool of feelings.

Weak Hero Class 2: Yeon Si-eun’s new beginning at Eunjang High School with violence
Weak Hero Class 2 is the sophomore season of the popular high school drama of the same name, where Park Ji-hoon reprised his role as Yeon Si-eun, an outcast who likes nothing but studying. In season 2, he transfers to Eunjang High School after experiencing a difficult situation in which he couldn't protect his close friend Ahn Su-ho, leaving a deep scar on his mental health.
On the first day at his new school, Yeon Si-eun confronts a bully, Choi Hyo-man (Yoo Su-bin). Unable to hold back, he uses his pen to attack him. A few months later, Choi Hyo-man avoids him upon learning that Yeon Si-eun had crippled several students at his previous school. However, after Yeon Si-eun stands up for Seo Jun-tae, Choi Hyo-man makes a plan to take him down.
Weak Hero Class 2 introduces new characters who will become Yeon Si-eun's friends, including Seo Jun-tae, played by Choi Min-young. Basketball players Park Hu-min, depicted by Ryeo-un, and Go Hyun-tak, played by Lee Min-jae, will also join Yeon Si-eun's circle.
The group of friends is set to confront the antagonists Geum Sung-je, played by Lee Jun-young, and Na Baek-jin, portrayed by Bae Na-ra, who run a union that uses violence to run shady business.
All eight episodes of Weak Hero Class 2 are available on Netflix for streaming.
