Hierarchy is a popular South Korean drama series created by Choo Hye-mi and Bae Hyun-jin. The story is about students at Jooshin High School, a very exclusive school started by South Korea’s biggest company, the Jooshin Group.
Kang Ha, a new student at the school wants to fit in with his elite classmates and takes some bold actions which lead him to discover a dark secret about the school.
The first season premiered on Netflix on 7th June 2024. Fans are now wondering if they will get Hierarchy season 2. Well, we have got all the details you need to know.
When is Hierarchy season 2 releasing?
For those wondering if there will be Hierarchy season 2, the answer is no. That’s because the show was planned as a limited series by Netflix.
Also, in South Korea TV shows conclude after one season. While multi-season projects are becoming more common with streaming services like Netflix, single-season shows remain the standard.
Hierarchy concludes the story in the first season which had only seven episodes. Since the story is already over, there’s little room for further storytelling.
But if the showrunners decide otherwise due to fan demand, we will surely receive the updates. Till then, you can watch the first season on Netflix.
What can we expect in Hierarchy season 2?
There are no plot details available due to obvious reasons. The show ended with the first season, leaving no scope for further plot development. If you have watched the first season, you will understand what we are talking about.
The ending is a whirlwind of emotions. Throughout the series, we followed Kang Ha, Jae-I, and Ri-an caught in a complicated love triangle. In the final episode, everyone goes their separate ways.
Jae-i finally confronts her oppressive father, telling him she has always feared being abandoned, just like her mother was. She packs her things, hits the road, and finds herself at a serene beach house. The last scene shows Jae-i reuniting with her mom which was truly a heart warming moment.
By the end of the show, one thing becomes clear she is free from her controlling father and ready to forge a new path.
Who is cast in Hierarchy season 2?
Until and unless the show is renewed for another season, we cannot expect to have the cast list. But since the story ended in the first season, the chances are slim. If they make a new season, it might feature a whole new cast. Or we could have the same cast members from the previous season, at least the lead ones.
Here are the cast members who appeared in the first season:
- Roh Jeong-eui as Jung Jae-i
- Lee Chae-min as Kang Ha
- Seo Bum-June
- Kwon Eun-bin as Ye-ji
- Yoon Seok-ho as Tae-ho
- Seo Jun as Kim Seon-woo
- Kim Jae-won as Kim Ri-an
- Ji Hye-won as Yoon He-ra
- Lee Won-jung as Lee Woo-jin
