Hwang Min-hyun is Returning for 'Study Group' Season 2

Hwang Min-hyun Set for K-Drama Comeback in 'Study Group' Season 2 Following Military Discharge

The study session is officially back in session! Fans of the hit action-comedy K-drama Study Group have a massive reason to celebrate today. It was officially confirmed that singer and actor Hwang Min-hyun will be making his highly anticipated return to the screen, reprising his leading role in the second season following the completion of his mandatory military service.

Hwang Min-hyun will once again step into the shoes of Youn Ga-min, a student at the worst school in the nation (Yusung Technical High School) who possesses top-tier fighting skills but desperately just wants to study and get into a good university. The first season served as his final acting project before his military enlistment, making his return for Season 2 a perfect homecoming to kick off his post-discharge career.

Hwang will be joined by a slate of returning cast members, including Han Ji-eun as the supportive teacher Lee Han-kyung, alongside Cha Woo-min, Shin Su-hyun, Yoon Sang-jeong, and Gong Do-yu.

The second season is also bringing in some major new heavy hitters. Veteran actor Kwon Sang-woo is officially boarding the project, alongside rising stars Kim Su-gyeom (Duty After School), Jeon So-young, and former CIX boy group member Hyunseok, who will be taking on the key role of Ji Young-hyun.

Based on the popular webtoon, the series blends intense, blood-pumping action with high school comedy. With pre-production and casting heavily underway, the second season of Study Group is currently aiming for a 2027 release. The series is produced by Studio Dragon and is expected to stream on TVING and Disney+.
