The story follows Youn Ga Min, played by Hwang Minhyun, a high school student who may lack academic prowess but is exceptionally skilled at fighting.
Enrolled at a notoriously dangerous and failing school, Ga Min forms a study group in an effort to improve his grades and pursue his dream of going to college—while fending off violent classmates and school gangs.
The show’s first season balanced intense action with emotional depth, showing the struggles of students trying to overcome their environment and rewrite their futures.
With sharp writing, dynamic characters, and stellar performances from a rising cast that includes Han Ji Eun and Cha Woo Min, Study Group resonated with viewers who enjoyed both adrenaline-fueled showdowns and touching moments of growth and friendship.

Studio Dragon recently cited the success of the series in its Q1 2025 earnings report, listing the confirmation of Season 2 as a major highlight.
The report also teased the possibility of a creative new format—a potential interquel, which would tell a story that bridges events between seasons.
This hint opens the door for backstories, side character arcs, or events that expand the world beyond Ga Min’s immediate struggles.
On May 12, a company representative reiterated that Season 2 is in the early development phase, although no cast announcements or release timeline have been made.
Still, the confirmation is more than enough to reignite buzz among fans eager to return to the halls of this troubled high school—and see what new academic and physical battles lie ahead.
Until further details are released, viewers can catch up on or rewatch Study Group on streaming platforms like Viki, where the show remains a fan favorite and a top-rated series of early 2025.
Whether you’re here for the pulse-pounding fight scenes or the underdog study squad’s quest to defy the odds, Study Group Season 2 promises to deliver more of what made the first season such a knockout success.
