If you’re a fan of action-packed teen dramas with a twist, get ready for ONE High School Heroes, a bold new K-drama scheduled to premiere in late 2025. This upcoming series combines the emotional intensity of high school life with the exhilarating thrill of superheroes, setting the stage for a totally fresh take on youth storytelling.
Announced by major Korean streaming platform TVING, this project is already drawing attention for its unique genre fusion, strong ensemble cast, and action-fueled visuals.
Let’s break down everything we know so far about this teen hero epic.
🏫 The Plot: Ordinary Students, Extraordinary Secrets
Set in the elite ONE High School, a prestigious private academy in Seoul known for producing the country’s future leaders, the drama follows a group of students who are anything but average. Beneath their uniforms, a secret group of teens possess special abilities and have sworn to protect the school and society from internal corruption and mysterious outside threats.
Each student hero faces a double life — balancing grades, friendships, and romance by day while battling danger by night.
The drama dives into themes of:
Justice vs. Power
Identity and secrecy
Youth rebellion
Friendship and loyalty
🎭 Main Cast (Rumored & Confirmed)
Though the official cast lineup is still being finalized, insiders suggest that both rising idols and rookie actors will lead the ensemble.
Yoo Seon-ho (Under the Queen's Umbrella) – Rumored to play the team leader, a genius strategist with telekinetic powers.
Park Ji-hoo (All of Us Are Dead) – Likely cast as the tough yet kind brawler with super strength.
Kim Min-ju (former IZ*ONE) – In talks to play the group’s tech specialist who can manipulate digital systems.
Yoo In-soo (The Good Bad Mother) – May portray the misunderstood villain-turned-hero.
Special cameo by Yoo Jae-suk as the school’s quirky janitor who knows the group's secret.
