She Was Pretty Season 2

• Hye Jin is now a rising editor with a strong voice in fashion journalism.
  
  

• Sung Joon is navigating the tension between creativity and corporate control.

Several new faces will join the cast, including a young prodigy in publishing who idolizes Hye Jin but becomes a romantic foil. Meanwhile, Kim Shin Hyuk (Choi Siwon) is rumored to make a special appearance, reigniting fan theories and laughs.

The chemistry between Hwang Jung Eum and Park Seo Joon remains magnetic, and sources reveal they’re both “excited to revisit characters that changed their careers.”

Filming began in July 2025, and the show is slated to premiere on tvN in November 2025, with international streaming rights acquired by Viki and Netflix.

The director, who also helmed other hit rom-coms like What's Wrong With Secretary Kim, promises an upgraded emotional depth that reflects the characters’ maturity without losing the charm of the original.

K-drama forums and social media exploded with excitement after the official poster was released, showing Hye Jin and Sung Joon back-to-back in an elegant magazine office, hinting at power couple dynamics and emotional tension.

One fan tweeted, “We’ve waited 10 years for this. Hye Jin and Sung Joon deserve their happy ending – again!”
