A new kidney bean cultivar, “wanghyeob 2”was developed for edible pod kidney bean adaptable to Korean cultivation at the National Institute of Crop Science in 2005. “wanghyeob 2”was selected from a cross between KLG50073 and KLG50072. It has determinate growth habit, white flower, yellow pod color, oval shape of crossed section of pod at the harvesting time for edible pod.
