On February 22, the second season of JTBC’s “Welcome to Waikiki” gave the public a glimpse of the upcoming drama with photos and details from its first script reading!
The first season of “Welcome to Waikiki,” which concluded in April 2018, followed the story of three young men who run a guest house that is on the brink of closing down. After gaining popularity for portraying the realistic lives of youth in a guest house called Waikiki, the drama confirmed its second season with a brand new cast lineup.
Along with director Lee Chang Min, actors Kim Seon Ho, Lee Yi Kyung, Shin Hyun Soo, Moon Ga Young, Ahn So Hee, and Kim Ye Won were present at the first script reading.

Kim Seon Ho will be taking on the role of Cha Woo Shik, an aspiring singer who is hard to please. He is cynical, but he also shows his naive side from time to time. The actor said, “I’m currently filming the drama very happily. I will continue to have fun and film well.”

Lee Yi Kyung will be reprising his role from the first season of “Welcome to Waikiki” as the carefree struggling actor Lee Joon Gi.

I will work hard once again as Lee Joon Gi.”
