Choi Min-young Shines in ‘Weak Hero Class 2’ with a Realistic Performance

Actor Choi Min-young, who captured global hearts with his role in Netflix’s spinoff series ‘XO, Kitty’ from ‘To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before’, is now making waves once again with his latest performance in ‘Weak Hero Class 2’.

‘Weak Hero Class 2’ follows model student Yeon Si-eun (played by Park Ji-hoon), who transfers to Eunjang High School carrying the trauma of losing a friend to violence. Determined never to lose another, Yeon Si-eun faces even greater brutality in a powerful story of survival and growth.

Following the massive success of ‘Weak Hero Class 1’, which ranked No. 2 in Netflix’s Global Top 10 (Non-English) TV series, ‘Weak Hero Class 2’ has been met with critical acclaim and a strong reception soon after its release.

Choi Min-young plays Seo Joon-tae, a key figure at Eunjang High School, where his character initially appears timid but undergoes a transformation after meeting Yeon Si-eun. With his intricate acting skills, Choi Min-young breathes palpable authenticity into Seo Joon-tae, earning widespread praise shortly after the show’s debut.

At a prior press conference, Han Jun-hee, the chief producer, described Seo Joon-tae as “the true weak hero,” highlighting the centrality of Choi Min-young’s character to the storyline. His portrayal is drawing significant attention and further cements his reputation as a rising international star.

Notably, Choi Min-young has been steadily expanding his presence globally, not only through ‘XO, Kitty’ Seasons 1 and 2 but now prominently through ‘Weak Hero Class 2’. His consistent performances showcase his versatility and growing influence on the world stage.

‘Weak Hero Class 2’ starring Choi Min-young is now available for streaming on Netflix.
