KBS is currently in the works of finalizing a deal for another season of its hit drama series “Dream High.” According to KBS officials, “Dream High” is already in the early planning stages for its second season, under the goal of airing it as early as Jan. 2012.

“We are planning to produce the second season of ‘Dream High.’ We can’t reveal any detailed plans at this point as nothing has been confirmed, but the overall format will be similar to the first season and perhaps we’ll be able to air it from early next year,” an official from KBS told local media. It’s unclear if the star-studded cast of Season One, including Park Jin Young, Bae Yong Joon, miss-A’s Suzy, 2PM’s Taecyeon and Woo Young, and IU will star again in Season Two. But it’s reported that Key East Entertainment and JYP Entertainment will jointly work again for the production of this season, raising hopes for another show with a group of idol star appearances.

Before the first season of “Dream High” got aired, many questioned its quality of acting and storyline, as it involved a lot of idol stars with little acting experience. But as the show went on, the idol star cast displayed improved acting skills and the plot turned out to be quite interesting, resulting in the show garnering an average TV rating of 15.7%, which was the highest rating in the Monday-Tuesday prime time slots.

Following the news of “Dream High: Season Two,” many netizens have shown interest with high hopes of seeing it as soon as possible. Some said the first season ended too early while others were curious to see who the next cast will involve. Many idol stars are talented enough to do both acting and singing these days; Super Junior’s Siwon, Big Bang’s TOP, MBLAQ’s Lee Joon, former 2PM member Jay Park, and KARA’s Goo Hara have all made or are planning to make acting debuts. Who would you like to see in the second season of “Dream High”?

One day, he meets a Seoul girl named Hye Mi and he falls for her at first sight. Sam Dong follows her to the Kirin arts high school, where he discovers his hidden talent in music and starts his path to becoming a star.

Taecyeon plays Jin Guk, whose real name is Hyun Shi Hyuk. He was left in the orphanage by his single mother at a young age. Shi Hyuk was then adopted by his paternal grandfather Hyun Mu Jin, who is also a rich businessman and CEO. Shi Hyuk was not happy in that household and was treated like an invisible person, so he decides to start a new life with the name Jin Guk. He gets recruited by the chairman of Kirin Arts High School who had noticed his talents in becoming a world star.

Suzy plays Go Hye Mi, a rich and beautiful arts student who is rude and is used to be the best at everything. When her father's business fails, Hye Mi is forced to give up on vocal training and pursue an education at the Kirin to become a pop singer, which she previously thought was crude and shallow. She is also the love interest of Sam Dong and Jin Guk.

Baek Hee then follows Hye Mi to audition for Kirin. There, she transforms from Hye Mi's follower to a confident girl and discovers her own dream. She will later become the biggest rival of Hye Mi.

Synopsis

This is the story of youths becoming top global stars which could take place in the not-so-distant future.

You may have the looks, talent, personality and even a respectable private life, but it's still tough to rise as a successful star. Here is a group of youths who are still up for this daring challenge.

They all have a single weakness barring them becoming the ultimate top star. The weaknesses wouldn't be an issue or an inconvenience to an ordinary person, but they are detrimental to a pop star.

The characters maximize their unique talents and overcome their weaknesses.

They fall, trip and fail which only boosts their confidence.

The underdogs and the losers will fly up high and their story will be an inspiration to young viewers.
