Actress Lee Eun-sam returns as a key figure in 'Cheongdam International High School 2'.
The new drama 'Cheongdam International High School 2' (directed by Lim Dae-woong and Park Hyung-won / written by Kwak Young-im / produced by Why Not Media and Rian Contents), which is set to premiere in July, is a high-teen psychological thriller that combines a power game at the elite Cheongdam International High School with a youth romance. Following the overwhelming suspense of the previous season, this season is expected to showcase even more intricate and sharp psychological battles and complex character relationships.
Lee Eun-sam plays the role of Kim Hye-in, the only witness to the fall incident of Kim Hae-in (played by Jang Seong-yoon), who transfers to Cheongdam International High School after the incident. Kim Hye-in appears quiet and neat on the outside, but she possesses sharp judgment and cold decisiveness within.
The released stills capture Lee Eun-sam's diverse expressions, drawing attention. With a newly changed hairstyle, she has transformed her image, convincingly portraying Kim Hye-in's cool atmosphere with deepened eyes and restrained expressions. From a firm gaze that seems to stare at someone to an expression that appears to suppress complex emotions, Lee Eun-sam's skill naturally conveys the character's narrative even through stills.
Meanwhile, Kim Hye-in joins the power circle 'Diamond 6' at Cheongdam International High School as the first 'dirt spoon', becoming a key figure who disrupts the internal order. As she becomes the central axis amidst entangled emotional lines with various characters, Kim Hye-in is expected to lead a narrative filled with solidarity, conflict, and confrontation, enhancing the drama's immersion. Lee Eun-sam is anticipated to portray the character of Kim Hye-in in a more dimensional way with her upgraded acting skills.
In this regard, the production team of 'Cheongdam International High School 2' stated, "Through the character of Kim Hye-in, we plan to depict the power changes within Cheongdam International High School and the psychological battles between characters in a more dense manner," adding, "In particular, the episodes that unfold after Kim Hye-in becomes a member of Diamond 6 will offer an unmissable development, so we ask for your interest and viewership."
Meanwhile, 'Cheongdam International High School 2', featuring the outstanding performance of the newly returned Lee Eun-sam, is set to be simultaneously released in over 190 countries through domestic and global streaming platforms and channels in the first week of July.
