The new storyline of The Heirs 2 is going to continue its storyline from the first season because there were so many open ends to its characters. In its first season, Kim Tan, heir to Jeguk Group, was sent to the U.S. by his half-brother Kim Won, who seeks control of the company. In the U.S., he meets Cha Eun-sang who went there in search of her sister. Despite his engagement to Yoo Rachel, Kim Tan falls for Eun-sang. Soon they meet again in South Korea where Eun-sang’s mother happens to work in Kim Tan’s house as a maid! On the other hand, Kim Tan’s former friend-turned-enemy, Choi Young-do also falls for Eun-sang and it creates more tension between Kim Tan and Eun Sang. By the end of the first season, Tan and Eun eventually overcome all the difficulties and are seen holding hands together. 

Now in the second season of The Heirs, the story of Kim Tan and Eun Sang will move in another direction! This time, Park Shin Hye will be a part of The Heirs for a very short period of time in some of the scenes to reminisce about their romance of the first season. But fans are going to be heartbroken at first. Kim Tan and Eun Sang will be seen breaking up after dating for 10 years because of their family issues that rose up again! Kim Tan will be seen as very heartbroken because he will blame himself a lot because of this break-up and hurting Eun Sang on the way. And this time, a surprising main lead of season 2 will appear to heal Kim Tan’s wounds who is none other than Song Hye Kyo!

Lee Min Ho has always been a big fan of the Glory actress, the evergreen queen Song Hye Kyo. It's rumored that Lee Min Ho himself pursued Heirs’ producer to cast Song Hye Kyo opposite him as it was a big dream of him to work alongside Song Hye Kyo. It will definitely be a big-budget drama casting two of the most admired and anticipated actors on one screen. 

Besides this surprising main lead, more new and recurring faces will join the cast of The Heirs. This time, Mr. Queen actor Choi Jin Hyuk will again be the loving yet sarcastic brother of Lee Min Ho. Kang Min Hyuk will have a very important role this time as Yoon Chan Young. The new cast list may add The Uncanny Counter’s Jo Byeong Kyu, Our Blue’s Bae Hyun Sung, and so on. But the main attraction will be the breathtaking chemistry between Lee Min Ho and Song Hye Kyo, as this is the dream on-screen couple of many fans right now. Lee Min Ho also expressed that she is his dream girl. It seems like Lee Min Ho already has a crush on Song Hye Kyo and this drama may become a big opportunity for Lee to win the heart of this evergreen beauty!
