Weak Hero Class 2

Having true friends can make the weakest be the strongest of all!

I was really excited for this new season and to me it was worthy the wait! It’s not better than season 1 tho but still great! Jihoon once again gave us an amazing performance, his eyes can tell a whole story and when he’s angry he’s so expressive! He’s really natural in this character, it was made for him. We didn’t have the same impactful scene as the ending of EP8 in season 1, when Si Eun cried after everything that happened, but his acting was still good!

Lee Jun Young as a villain was also really good too, which I expected already because I love his acting and he’s a master in this type of character. I really hope he gets more popular later, he deserves. Baek Jin’s actor also did a very good job as a villain! It’s difficult to shine in a psychopath character when Jun Young is in the same drama but he did great. I’m not gonna lie tho, I wanted to see Jun Young more because he’s just TOO GOOD!

About Si Eun’s new friends, altough Baku have a much more focus in the story, I liked Hyeon Tak and Jun Tae more as characters. It was a great duo and Jun Tae is sooo cute! Baku is interesting but he was a little annoying for me in the beginning. He captivated me more later tho, especially in his scenes with Baek Jin. They had great chemistry. In general I liked the dinamic between the characters and their friendship. It was really important for Si Eun to have new friends and to not be alone.

The fighting scenes were good for me too, although no one was impactful as the one with the book in the season 1. But if I had to pick a favorite would be the one with Jihoon and Jun Young (I might be biased haha). We also had some memorable and emotional moments too and we can see how everything that happened in the last season had a strong impact in Si Eun’s life and how important is Su Ho for him. I liked the hospital scene between Si Eun and BeomSeok too, it had a great symbolism with Beom Seok basically representing Si Eun’s trauma who was holding him back.

Some negative points is that I think some parts were a bit rushed, especially in the last two episodes. Nevertheless, I liked this season and I will definitely be watching if they do another one (the ending gave me the feeling that we might have a 3rd season… don’t know if we have enough material for that tho, it might be something completely new).

PS: If we get another season later, it would be great to see Si Eun, Baku, Jun Tae, Hyeon Tak AND Su Ho being a squad. Also, I think I have to point out: I never read the webtoon so all opinions here is based only in what I saw in the drama!

Wasted Potential

Wow. First off wow. This was probably my most and THE most anticipated drama of 2025 and it just failed to live up to the hype it expected. Compared to S1, I expected something more. The casting was great, the story was... mid and rushed, and the osts were brilliant.

To note, I know there were many characters that were cut from the drama as opposed to the webtoon but the villains were really lackluster. The only interesting characters were, of course, the two that were the "main" villains. There were definitely interesting and a great addition but I feel like we could've gotten more with the addition of the original characters. There were the other two who were almost non-existent which I feel like in the webtoon, they actually had something to add to the story. Na Baekjin was pushed out too much when, in reality, he was like a mysterious figure throughout the webtoon. He was behind the scene most of the time. (The tattoo... the FUCKING TATTOO). Lackluster villains, Wolf Keum was the only interesting one and fucking disappeared.

Even for the main cast, there was so much potential, SO MUCH. Yes, I love the four of them (5 inlcuding Suho) but we could've gotten something even more. The original Eunjang had life to them. This Eunjang had nothing. We could've gotten 3/4 more characters who could've added to the story but were instead cut. Go Hyuntak didn't really get his shine as he should have compared to Juntae and Baku. There was almost no depth to his character. He could've been something so much more rather than being Baku's friend and good at fighting.

It's sad that this was rushed and pushed out like this, I felt like they could've put more into this. 8 episodes? Really? I mean cmon Netflix. This could've been a great 16 episode season even if we included the original cast from the webtoon. These were 30 minute episodes damn near, where it could've been at least an hour at most. No depth to some characters, Na Baekjin's conclusion sucked, the fight between Union and Eunjang could've been on a much bigger scale, the other schools didn't even get highlighted when could've added more to the story. Man.

This felt more like an original rather than an adaptation. I think S1 was too good, like really too good. You can't top it sadly. They tried with this but instead failed and burnt everything to flames. It was, of course still good but, damn. It was really lackluster and deviated from the webtoon a lot. I feel like a lot of people were too attached to Suho and they were almost forced to include him in this season, making him the main plot essentially. I felt no attachment to the other characters, other than Baku really.

One of the most anticipated but failed to live up to the people. Would've been an overall 7/7.5 but the casting of the actors were great so I had to bump it up. Would've rather rewatched S1 then watch this tbh. But overall, it was a fun watch, just not what I expected after how much of a masterpiece S1 was. Could've been something great but became Gojo.

INSANE.

I’m seeing a lot of negative reviews but I’m so so satisfied with this season. INCREDIBLE acting. Funny, INCREDIBLY sad. There were a few moments where my heart genuinely sank to my actual BUTT. I am so incredibly happy with the ending🥹🥹 I don’t wanna spoil too much but it’s so good i don’t even know what to say. I finished it in one sitting, such beautiful acting, beautiful characters, everything was insane. I recommend 100%. I cried EVERY. SINGLE. EPISODE. But it was so worth it. Finished half a box of tissues but again SO worth it. I loved loved LOVED this season so much. There were also a lot of moments where I wished I was in the show so I could beat tf out of some characters INCLUDING SIEUN’S DUMB MOTHER. GOD I HATE HER.

Book them all for a CT Scan...

By the time this drama ended, I was left feeling unsatisfied—as if the story wasn’t truly over, like more episodes were on the way but never arrived. That feeling might be intentional, a product of good storytelling designed to leave viewers anticipating a potential next season. However, something about this season’s ending felt different from Season 1.

When season 1 ended—with Suho in a coma and Siyeon transferred to another school—there was still a strong sense of emotional closure. Despite the heartbreak and betrayal, it left a lasting impact... the ache of a beloved character’s fate, the sorrow of broken friendships and the hope of what might come next. It was melancholic but meaningful. It felt like an ending.

In contrast, season 2 lacked that emotional weight. I didn’t feel the same connection to the newly introduced characters, and as a result, the conclusion didn’t carry the same emotional punch. There was no sadness, no real anticipation—just a flat, almost indifferent sense of “that’s it?”. Perhaps it’s because the original characters were more fleshed out and emotionally engaging, while the new ones didn’t have the same depth or development.

That said, Park Ji Hoon once again delivered a standout performance as Siyeon. He truly is that character. His portrayal was so seamless and convincing that it’s hard to imagine him in any role that isn’t this serious or stoic—he embodied Siyeon completely, with intensity and nuance.

Another highlight was Lee Jun Young as Seong Jae. I’ll admit, part of my admiration is biased—I have always been a fan since his acting debut. But when the character was first introduced, I genuinely didn’t recognize him. I remember thinking, “This guy really looks like Lee Jun Young,” and that he would’ve nailed this role, only to realize a moment later that it was him. I had to laugh at myself. What impressed me most was how he didn’t fall back on his previous villain or bully roles. He reinvented the archetype—his posture, his body language, the subtlety in his performance—it all felt fresh. That speaks volumes about his talent.

Jo Jung Suk’s cameo was also a fantastic surprise. In just a few seconds, he brought charisma, danger and gravitas as a mafia boss. He was a total scene-stealer. I’m definitely hoping we’ll see more of both JJS and LJY if there’s a next season.

All in all, this season was just… okay. I went in with high expectations because Season 1 was phenomenal. But by the end of Season 2, I wasn’t just missing the old characters—I was missing the emotional connection and storytelling depth that made the first season unforgettable. It didn’t feel like a reunion; it felt more like an unresolved chapter.

Rating: 7.5/10

Not like I expected:(

"UPDATED REVIEW"
**it's just my personal opinion**

I found it incredibly disappointing. I had really high expectations, especially after reading the webtoon and seeing how well season 1 was done. Unfortunately, things didn’t turn out the way I imagined.
The drama felt rushed, and it seemed like there was no real character development or meaningful connection between them. It was just fight after fight, which stripped away the true value of the original story.

On top of that, we didn’t even get to see some of the secondary characters we were so excited for, like Theo, Jin Ga Yul, Hakho… 😭 Like, where are my favorite characters?! How are they not even included in the drama?!

And above all, they completely destroyed Baekjin’s character.
He went from being such a remarkable and legendary character to just an average, forgettable one. It’s honestly heartbreaking, especially after seeing how much potential he had in the webtoon.

Also, where are Sieun’s studying scenes? The ones where he solves problems creatively, especially in math? Where is Baekjin’s mysterious curiosity toward Sieun’s answers? Where are Sieun’s calculated and strategic thoughts before a fight — you know, the reason why he’s called the "White Mamba"? and Where is the hierarchy list of the strongest and weakest fighters?

In short, all the charm and identity of the webtoon disappeared. If it was going to end up like this, I honestly wish they had just stopped after season 1.
My overall impression of this drama was completely ruined.
LITERALLY.

The only positive thing I can say is that the actors did an amazing job portraying their characters. It was at least a small consolation.

Thank you Jihoon, Min-young, Min-jae, Ryeo Un and Jun Young for your hard work!

a simplified adaptation with no substance to stand alone

while this season wasn't bad it had many flaws that at first I couldn't pick point but after doing another rewatch, I can finally give a proper review.

Throughout the beginning of season 2 it sets up the antagonist and how they will affect Se-iun, that's great in all but the problem lies when the pacing doesn't work so we can't really root nor understand why this gang is trying to get to multiple schools involved and how that's has to do with baku and the rest of the main characters until the very end where it is revealed it's all done to donate, and that could have work but the pacing didn't give enough time to set this up.

the characters felt bleak and didn't have a spark like in the manhwa nor the first season, it felt like all these characters just where there and didn't contribute to the story, and when they did they contributed for and episode or two then left or some how became supporting roles, for example, where introduced to Seo Jun Tae(Eugene gale) and how he is being bullied and taken advantage of by the school bully Hyo man, and due to Se-iun Jun Tae stands up for himself and stops being "cowardly" but after that it felt like Jun Tae was just a side character with a half-ass character development. this doesn't only happen to Jun Tae in the story but he stood out to me.

next, Se-iun didn't feel like this was his story, nor did it try to involve him in it, Instead of having a calculated Se-iun we had last season we have a guy who doesn't properly think over his actions, I love how we see his internal discussions with bumsoek in the later episode with showed some kind of character development, but that development should have been shown more and and a slower steady pace then it was. what made me mad about seiun's character this season was how we lacked a resemblance on the affects he gained from last season, yes he feels guilt and sadness, but not as complex nor as a character who is fully against making new friends shown by how fast he gets all friendly with Jun Tae

the charm that season 1 had was just not there for this season, it feels more of an empty story with no substance... scenes feel repetitive and stale while others serve no purpose at all in my opinion, the situation that the characters last season felt somewhat realistic(in the realm of action kdrama) but this season all reason is gone the situation that is encounter, and I wouldn't be so annoyed by this due to the fact that the manhwa ain't that realistic, but from the stand point of season 1 it just doesn't work.

the villains didn't feel like threats nore threatening and felt like one dimensional characters just doing stuff for nothing, the only villain that had some depth was Na Baek Jin(Donald)and his actions but after that that wasn't fully developed for the viewer to get in thrilled in his story, it felt like I was being bothered when any scenes with baku and Na Baek Jin's character should up, like I get they where friends who fell apart but the point of story is showing not telling, I want to see their fall out and not just see these scenes where they mentioned how they aren't friends....

lastly, I just felt like this season didn't create any good memories for me like at all, nothing was memorable and many episodes where unbearable to watch, I was bored for many scenes and if not bored confused due to the lack of pacing nor actual thrilling writing of this season it felt rushed, boring, a waist of time, and lackluster at best. but at the end of the day these are all my opinions, can can disagree with me, but this is how I feel.(also is whc2 getting a 3rd season, cause I need it to stop here, this should be its last season....)

Not Real Weak Hero but a Good Fanfiction

Let me say this first! This is not real Weak Hero, but a good fanfiction that is like a different universe with same characters and not so similar events. It could've been a masterpiece with something like 50 min x 16 ep x 3 seasons but let's say if you didn't read webtoon, then it was a good drama with a different story.

Especially the first season had very comprehensive story with a deep understanding of the characters but, a huge BUT, the background story with Suho/Stephen was only 7-8 chapters of the webtoon, so the 8 episode was enough to create an emotional story with a good story line. On the other hand, the conflict between Union and Sieun/Gray's friends was the main story of the webtoon which is like 267 episodes. Therefore, they had to rush the story in second season of it, which wasn't a good idea if you ask me. It didn't give me the same feeling with the first season. Firstly, the characters wasn't as deep as they were in first season. Secondly, they had to skip all of the important characters related to Union or Sieun, important events and everything else to keep it simple and short.

The best part of it was the casting. All actors did a good job. I loved how Lee Jun Young portrayed Wolf/Geum Seong Je. He was as crazy as Wolf since the first scene. Donald/Na Baek Jin could be better, but no matter who, there will always be a better choice for all the characters.

Would I watch it again? Definitely no but I will read the webtoon again. :)

"Season 2 Had Its Moments, But It Just Couldn’t Live Up to the Masterpiece of Season 1

I’ve been waiting for Season 2 for so long, and I had my expectations up high. Honestly, I was super excited to dive back into the world and see what would happen next. I devoured the show, but I couldn’t help feeling like something was off. There were just way too many fight scenes, and it felt like the events were rushed—like everything was happening too fast. The pacing just didn’t have the same flow that Season 1 had.

The first season was just so good, it felt like a complete masterpiece to me. The characters had so much depth, and the story really hit you in the feels. Season 2 just didn’t live up to that same magic. The characters didn’t feel as fleshed out, and I missed that emotional connection I had with them before.

But there was one thing that i really loved and it was that Suho woke up. That moment was honestly exactly what I needed. It felt like the show gave me this moment of healing. I think it was such an important moment for both the character and for the audience.

Overall, while I loved being back in the world of the show, Season 2 just couldn’t match up to the masterpiece that was Season 1.
