The hit Korean drama “Bitch x Rich” is coming back with Season 2 this July. The show just released its full cast poster, giving fans a first look at the returning and new characters. The story continues the intense drama at Chungdam International High School, where power struggles and mysteries keep everyone on edge.
Season 1 was a big success, ranking high on streaming platforms like Netflix and Viki. The new season brings back fan favorites while adding fresh faces to shake things up. The global premiere is set for early July, with episodes dropping on multiple platforms worldwide.

Returning and New Faces in Season 2
The main cast from Season 1 is back for more drama. Lee Eun Saem returns as Kim Hye In, the underprivileged student who became a key witness to a murder. Red Velvetโs Yeri is back as Baek Je Na, the powerful queen of the schoolโs elite group, Diamond 6.
Other returning stars include Lee Jong Hyuk as Seo Do Eon, Park Si Woo as Min Yool Hee, Jang Duk Soo as Park Woo Jin, and Jang Sung Yoon as Kim Hae In. These characters will face new challenges as the schoolโs power balance crumbles further.
Two new characters join the mix this season. Kim Min Kyu plays Cha Jin Wook, a charismatic transfer student from a wealthy family. His arrival threatens to disrupt the schoolโs fragile hierarchy. Won Kyu Bin debuts as Lee Sa Rang, a romantic who will do anything to protect Kim Hye In.
What to Expect in Season 2
Season 2 picks up right where Season 1 left offโafter a shocking murder that turned the school upside down. Kim Hye In is now a two-time witness and the first outsider to join Diamond 6. Meanwhile, Baek Je Na struggles to hold onto her power as suspicions and betrayals grow.
Director Lim Dae Woong, who also worked on “Night Has Come” and “Search,” shared his thoughts on the new season.
“If Season 1 was about the growth and self-discovery of youth, Season 2 focuses on the growing pains that come with facing reality. This season doesnโt just continue the charactersโ storiesโit explores the anxiety, tension, and fractures in their relationships.”
The show is known for its intense psychological battles and class conflicts. Unlike typical school dramas, “Bitch x Rich” avoids simple bullying plots and instead dives into complex power plays among students.
