It’s been years since Hyeri gave us Deok-sun in Reply 1988, but forget all that nostalgia—she’s back, she’s fierce, and she’s stealing the spotlight in Friendly Rivalry!
Playing Yoo Jae-yi, a top student with a slight (okay, massive) obsession with transfer student Woo Seul-gi, Hyeri delivered a performance that had fans glued to their screens.
And with Friendly Rivalry being a GL psychological thriller set in an elite girls' school, things got very intense, very fast.
But let’s be real—before the drama even aired, everyone was already talking about that tub scene.
You know, the one where Hyeri and her co-star, 26-year-old Chung Su Bin, shared a bubble bath and a kiss?
Yeah, that sent the internet into meltdown mode.
And when the show finally dropped? Instant obsession.

Fans couldn’t get enough of the twisted mind games, elite school drama, and, of course, the sizzling chemistry between Hyeri and Chung Su Bin.
Seriously, it’s the kind of chemistry that doesn’t come around often—like, Reply 1988 level iconic.
Now that Friendly Rivalry has wrapped up, fans are not ready to let it go.
Some feel the ending was way too rushed, and the demand for a second season is already growing louder by the day.
And just when we thought Hyeri and Chung Su Bin would move on to their next projects, they hit us with a plot twist—posting a cosy snap of them hanging out and calling it a “date.”
Cue the collective meltdown (again).
So, will Friendly Rivalry return for a Season 2?
Nothing’s confirmed yet, but with the way fans are begging for more, we wouldn’t be surprised if Hyeri and Chung Su Bin reunite for another round of elite school drama, power struggles, and GL tension that keeps us all hooked.
Fingers crossed!
