“Weak Hero Class 1” Season 1 Ending Explained
So in short, “Weak Hero Class 1” Season 1 was actually the backstory of the hero of the webtoon, Si Eun. The original webtoon begins from the final scene of the 1st season of the series. The webtoon itself follows Si Eun’s journey in Eunjang High school not the setting for the majority of the drama adaptation.
This means “Weak Hero Class 1” Season 1 was done as a set up to the actual story that is seen in the webtoon. According to the fans, while some details of the backstory of Si Eun have been referenced in the original webtoon, the drama adaptation elaborates on it in great details showing his transformation and what led up to him becoming like that.
Will “Weak Hero Class 1” return with season 2?
Due to the ending of “Weak Hero Class 1,” many speculate the Wavve, the broadcaster of the drama, is gearing up for season 2.
Some fans allege they have seen flyers for “Weak Hero Class 1” season 2 casting back in the summer of 2022 for some of the famous characters in the webtoon, however, there hasn’t been any official confirmation about the possibility of season two from Wavve yet.
So what did you guys think of Weak Hero Class 1 ending?
One of the best teenage action drama so far. Lead Actors are superb and even soundtrack is good. I really wish a season 2 and much longer episodes (prob 16 is good). Also would like to see Soo Ho recovers and enrolled at the same school as Si Heun. If Soo Ho is vegetable already, I would wish that Jeon Seok Dae come out of Prison and be Si Heun’s friend and protector.
This movie is interesting.But why is bulling common in South Korea school
I absolutely hated the ending. Heartbreaking and Suho being in a coma. I just wonder if the webtoon has any information about whether Suho comes out of the coma. I think most of the fans would like to see him come out of the coma and be well again and join Sieun.
