Watch: Kim Ji Won Threatens Status Quo At A Corrupt Hospital In “Doctor X” Preview

SBS’s upcoming drama “Doctor X” has shared a sneak peek of its first episode!

Based on the hit Japanese series of the same name, “Doctor X” is a medical noir drama starring Kim Ji Won as Gye Soo Jung, a genius surgeon who proves what it truly means to be a doctor through pure skill alone as she “operates” on a corruption-ridden establishment.

The newly released preview of the drama’s premiere begins with Gye Soo Jung entering the operating room. Later, surgical intern Park Tae Kyung (Kim Woo Seok) happens to meet her outside the hospital and asks for her name, to which she responds by making a large “X” sign with her finger.

After arriving at Guseo University Hospital, Gye Soo Jung remains bold and fearless inside the hospital as well. Standing in the auditorium where the medical staff is gathered, Gye Soo Jung asks challengingly about a case, “Why are you performing a laparotomy [on this patient]?” Later, she defiantly tells someone, “I absolutely won’t do any of that.”

Troubled by this daring newcomer who is threatening the status quo, the other doctors at the hospital worry, “This person could shake the foundations of everything [we’re doing].” Meanwhile, one scene shows Park Tae Kyung left alone in the operating room and yelling, “What are we supposed to do if you all leave? There’s no one here!” On the other hand, Boo Seung Kwon (Son Hyun Joo), the director of the hospital, says dismissively, “It’s just a tail that can be cut.”

The preview ends with Jang Hee Sook (Lee Jung Eun), the head of the medical staffing agency that has sent Gye Soo Jung to the hospital, describing her as “the top ace of our agency.”

“Doctor X” will premiere on October 9 at 9:50 p.m. KST.

Kim Ji Won’s Arrival At A Corrupt Hospital Brings Change To Everyone Around Her In “Doctor X”

The upcoming SBS drama “Doctor X” has unveiled new stills ahead of its premiere!

The newly released stills capture Kim Ji Won as Gye Soo Jung, a genius surgeon known as the “crazy Gye [wordplay of the similarly sounding Korean word for “dog”] of the operating room.” While she displays extraordinary skill in surgery, outside the operating room, she is an eccentric and fearless maverick who ignores the hospital’s strict rules and power struggles, boldly speaking her mind even to those above her.

Lee Jung Eun plays Jang Hee Sook, the money-driven head of a medical staffing agency who sends Gye Soo Jung to Guseo University Hospital. Although she initially comes across as a loud, materialistic chatterbox, she is actually a shrewd strategist who relies on her sharp instincts and ability to read people to run her business. Despite being contract-bound business partners, she and Gye Soo Jung grow close like family, much like an aunt and niece, always having each other’s backs despite their constant bickering.

Son Hyun Joo plays Boo Seung Kwon, the director of corruption-ridden Guseo University Hospital. Desperate to restore the struggling hospital to its former glory, he compromises with the corrupt organization to keep it afloat, while secretly holding onto his dream of upholding his duty as a doctor. His life begins to change when Gye Soo Jung, a genius “dark hero” doctor, enters the picture.

Kim Woo Seok plays surgical intern Park Tae Kyung, whose life at the hospital is transformed after meeting Gye Soo Jung. Kindhearted and ambitious, he tries to hold onto his warmth amid the hospital’s relentless power struggles. Inspired by Gye Soo Jung’s fearless determination to stand up against corrupt doctors and her unwavering focus on saving patients, Park Tae Kyung forms a special mentor-mentee bond with her as he begins to change.

“Doctor X” will premiere on October 9 at 9:50 p.m. KST.

Watch: Kim Ji Won Bluntly Calls Morally Corrupt Doctors “Pathetic” In “Doctor X” Episode 1 Clip

The upcoming SBS drama “Doctor X” has released a preview clip from Episode 1!

The newly released clip highlights Gye Soo Jung’s blunt and fearless personality. A freelance surgeon dispatched through a medical staff placement agency to fill a gap in the surgical department at Guseo University Hospital, Gye Soo Jung is known for her obsession with surgery, earning her the nickname “the crazy Gye [wordplay of the similarly sounding Korean word for “dog”] of the operating room.”

In the clip, Gye Soo Jung openly speaks her mind in front of surgical professor Bae Heung Gon (Lee Sung Wook) and senior resident Ma Sung Gyu (Kwon Seung Woo). She bluntly tells them, “I don’t like you guys,” immediately turning the atmosphere tense.

Her sharp criticism continues: Gye Soo Jung calls them “people who have studied solely for money and career advancement, ‘stupidly smart’ but without any ethics, convictions, or independent thought.” She also takes aim at them for “bowing down to senior doctors but arrogantly holding their heads high in front of patients, turning a blind eye to the mistakes of those above them while blaming the system for their own problems,” as well as for “worrying more about how to get themselves out of difficult situations despite knowing the pain and risks their patients face.”

Gye Soo Jung delivers the final stinging remark: “People who are ‘just doctors.’ Hey, you guys are seriously pathetic.”

Her blunt words strike a nerve, prompting Bae Heung Gon to lose his temper and order her to leave. As Gye Soo Jung simply picks up her bag and heads out, the clip ends with surgical intern Park Tae Kyung (Kim Woo Seok) realizing that she did not leave because she was told to—she simply left work for the day because the clock had struck 6 p.m.
