'Hierarchy' Season 2: Will Netflix Release a Sequel? 

Penned by Choo Hye Mi, who also wrote the 2018 K-drama "About Time," "Hierarchy" is a high-teen scandal drama that depicts the story of the rich and famous students of Jooshin High School. 

The fictional school caters to the sons and daughters of conglomerate owners, politicians, and powerful personalities in South Korea. 

However, a new student, through Kang Ha (Lee Chae Min), managed to expose the dark side of the school. His mission is to reveal the reason behind the death of his twin brother. 

Other than Lee Chae Min, the "Hierarchy" cast includes rising stars Roh Jeong Eui, Kim Jae Won, Ji Hye Won, and Lee Won Jung. 

With only seven episodes in the first season, fans are looking forward to a possible sequel since the finale episode delivered a cliffhanger. 

It includes Jooshin High School welcoming a new principal through Oh Na Ra. In addition to this, the last scene featured Jung Jae I's mother, whom she visited after she decided not to continue her studies in the United States. 

With this, there were speculations that Netflix would release "Hierarchy" season 2, but as of this writing, drama officials are yet to confirm if the show will be renewed or not.
