Han Ye-ji has emerged as a promising star in the home theater.

On the 12th, he appeared as the lead role in tvN Saturday-Sunday drama ‘Someday, I Will Be a Wise Resident’ (Unseuljeon), which first aired, and really caught the attention of viewers.

The drama is a spin-off of the hit series ‘Hospital Playlist’ that shared the same worldview as the series in seasons 1 and 2, but with different characters as the main characters.The story centers around residents who are new to society, rather than doctors or professors.

In the drama, which started off with a viewership rating(Nielsen Korea 3.8%), Han Ye-ji played the role of Kim Sa-bi, a first-year resident in the obstetrics and gynecology department at Jongno Yulje Hospital, and proved her potential for growth.

Along with co-stars Go Yoon-jung, Cynthia, and Kang Yoo-seok, the drama realistically portrays the lives of four young people, each with their own unique stories, starting from their eventful commute to work.

Unlike Go Yoon-jung, Cynthia, and Kang Yoon-seok, who became known through dramas such as ‘Hwanhon’, ‘The Witch’, and ‘Foolish’, this drama is Han Ye-ji’s debut work, making her a true freshman in society.

In the broadcast that day, Han Ye-ji caught the attention by realistically portraying the character of a super model student who took first place in the national exam from her medical school days and applied to the obstetrics and gynecology department, and who lives up to the hospital’s expectations.She also succeeded in receiving favorable reviews from viewers for her stable portrayal of her struggling with social life, which she experienced for the first time in her life.

He, a graduate of the Korea National University of Arts, Department of Theater, is determined to bring vitality to the character with his fresh mask and rich emotional acting.

The production team said, “Han Ye-ji passed the audition with high competition rates,” and “She was immediately noticed by creator Shin Won-ho, who has a special sense for discovering new talent, and director Lee Min-soo, who was in charge of directing.”

Han Ye-ji said at a recent production conference, “When I passed the first audition, I thought I had already achieved something in life.I’m so curious about what it would feel like to see myself on TV,” but added, “I studied and acted out a character who prioritizes rational judgment over emotion and empathy.”
