The strong action-growth drama of a weak boy "Weak Hero Class 1", which depicts Yeon Si-eun, a top 1% model student, confronting numerous violence with Su-ho and Bum-seok, who became friends for the first time, will be released to more than 190 countries around the world on Netflix from March 25.
Based on the Naver webtoon of the same name, Weak Hero Class 1 is a masterpiece that has been recognized for both its workability and buzz by recording an astonishing 45.5% of OTT platform share when it was released in 2022 due to the good performance of outstanding new actors such as Park Ji-hoon, Choi Hyun-wook, Hong-kyung, Shin Seung-ho, and Lee Yeon. Yeon Si-eun (Park Ji-hoon), who was an exemplary student, was accidentally swept up in a whirlwind of violence, and the story of confronting violence inside and outside the school with Su-ho (Choi Hyun-wook) and Beom-seok (Hong-kyung) received great response by depicting the growth and friendship of the three friends.
In 'Weak Hero', the world view beyond the typicality of the academy and the message of not missing reality in the speedy action made a big repercussion. On top of that, actors such as Park Ji-hoon, Choi Hyun-wook, and Hong Kyung focused on the completeness of the performance, raising expectations for 'Weak Hero Class 2'.
Following the 'Weak Hero Class 1', which will come to Netflix in the second quarter of this year, Yeon Si-eun, who transferred to Eunjang High School with trauma that she could not keep after confronting violence for her friend, is expected to draw a desperate survival and brilliant growth story as she faces even greater violence because she can never lose her friend again. Following the previous season, a large number of fresh faces have joined, stimulating expectations. Ryeo-woon, Choi Min-young, and Lee Min-jae act as new friends that the main character 'Yeon Si-eun' meets in Eunjango. Above all, at the end of 'Weak Hero 1', Yu Su-bin, who raised tension by setting a confrontation with 'Yeon Si-eun', predicted the appearance of the role of 'Choi Hyo-man', raising curiosity. In addition, Bae Na-ra joined as a huge coalition in which her friends will face off with Yeon Si-eun, and Lee Joon-young makes a special appearance, further igniting expectations.
Meanwhile, 'Weak Hero Class 1' will be released on Netflix on March 25 in more than 190 countries around the world, and 'Weak Hero Class 2' will visit viewers in the second quarter of 2025.
