Weak Hero Class 2 – My Thoughts After a Binge Watch
So, I just binged Weak Hero Class 2, and honestly, I enjoyed it for the most part. It picks up right where S1 left off – Su Ho is in a coma, Si Eun’s been expelled, and now he's transferred to a smaller school where rumors are flying that he “killed someone.” Not great when you’re already carrying a ton of guilt.
What I Loved:
First off, the soundtrack. Still the same as season 1, and I’m so glad they didn’t change it. It’s just perfect for the mood of the show – intense, emotional, and so atmospheric.
Park Jihoon as Yeon Si Eun – seriously, this guy doesn’t miss. His acting was just as strong as in S1, if not better. He starts off the season already looking like he’s hit rock bottom, and you feel it. His expressions were everything. That one scene where Jun Tae tells him it’s not his fault and he finally breaks down? That hit hard. Especially when he tells his mom he doesn’t want to go abroad because his friends said it’s not his fault – beautiful moment.
Also, the friendship this season was really well done. Hu Min, Jun Tae, and Hyeon Tak helping Si Eun slowly open up was such a nice progression to watch. You could tell he was starting to heal, little by little.
And okay, Hu Min and Baek Jin were doing their own thing entirely – it was like they had their own drama running parallel. Whether as friends or enemies, they had real chemistry and were low-key pulling everyone else into their whirlwind.
Episode 1 was my personal favorite. In just 40 minutes, they made me care about a brand-new character (Jun Tae), and that’s not easy. Really strong start.
The fight scenes were solid too – gritty and intense like always.
And Su Ho waking up at the end? Yes! Loved that Si Eun went to see him, this time with new friends by his side.
What Caught Me Off Guard:
Baek Jin’s death. Didn’t see it coming, and definitely didn’t expect to be that sad about it.
Final Thoughts:
Season 1 is still my favorite, but season 2 had a lot of good stuff too. The emotional weight was heavier, and while the pacing was a bit different, it was still a fun watch. Some great new characters, solid fights, and strong character development – I’m glad I stuck with it.
