Go Yoon-jung, Cynthia, Kang Yoo-seok, and Han Ye-ji have become a little closer.

In episode 4 of tvN weekend drama ‘Someday, I Will Be a Wise Resident’ (creator Shin Won-ho, Lee Woo-jung, director Lee Min-soo, scriptwriter Kim Song-hee, abbreviated as ‘Unseuljeon’), which aired on the 20th, the relationship between first-year residents Oh Yi-young(played by Go Yoon-jung), Pyo Nam-kyung(played by Cynthia), Eom Jae-il(played by Kang Yoo-seok), and Kim Sa-bi(played by Han Ye-ji)was portrayed.

On this day, the residents who had gathered at the hospital and were doing their own work happened to see Oh Yi-young’s messenger and realized that he was thinking about quitting.However, Professor Seo Jeong-min(played by Lee Bong-ryeon)was giving Oh Yi-young various opportunities, such as writing a thesis abstract, assisting in a surgery, and working together.Kim Sa-bi, who usually respected Seo Jeong-min, complained in a sharp tone, freezing the atmosphere.

In addition, Seo Jung-min assigned Oh Yi-young to be the attending physician for a mother who was found to have a heart defect.This patient was a rare case that even Kim Jun-wan(Jung Kyung-ho), the head of the thoracic surgery department at Yulje Hospital, came to collaborate, so Oh Yi-young also needed to study a lot.He sent SOS signal to Kim Sa-bi, but Kim Sa-bi refused Oh Yi-young’s request, maintaining an awkward relationship.Kim Sa-bi even shocked him by tearing off the post-it note that Seo Jung-min had written on it.The tension doubled when Oh Yi-young witnessed this scene.

In the midst of this, when the mother unfortunately gave birth to a stillborn baby, the attending physician, Oh Yi-young, was given the important task of collecting skin from the dead baby for testing.Having witnessed a resident suffer from extreme trauma while doing this work during her internship, Oh Yi-young confided her fears to Koo Do-won(played by Jung Joon-won), who advised her to stay with her friend.

Oh Yi-young, who thought of Kim Sa-bi who had shown interest in this case at the end of the story, pretended not to notice that she had taken off the post-it note and asked for help, saying with difficulty, “Let’s do it together.I’m scared.” Kim Sa-bi also felt sorry for Oh Yi-young who had been in trouble because of her actions, so she held her friend’s hand and gave her a warm feeling.

In particular, Kim Sa-bi showed a changed appearance as she tried to find a way to relieve Oh Yi-young’s burden.The two of them made the hearts of those watching ache as they politely declared death for the baby and said their final goodbyes.Seo Jeong-min also comforted the mother who had to endure the separation alone while receiving comfort from his friend Kim Jun-wan, adding to the emotion.


At the same time, Pyo Nam-kyung was having a subtle fight with nurse Yeo Joo-yeon(played by Kim Do-kyung)because of a word from fellow resident Myung Eun-won(played by Kim Hye-in).This was because he misunderstood that Yeo Joo-yeon was taking sides with senior resident Cha Da-hye(played by Hong Na-hyun)and bullying her colleague, Eom Jae-il.However, contrary to Pyo Nam-kyung’s expectations, Eom Jae-il still maintained a good relationship with Yeo Joo-yeon, leaving Pyo Nam-kyung bewildered.

Pyo Nam-kyung, who was uncomfortable because of the unnecessary war of nerves, apologized first for Yeo Ju-yeon’s behavior of taking care of him by catching the patient’s vomit with her hand, and repaired their relationship.The obstetrics and gynecology staff ended the day by sharing a snack together.In addition, the first-year residents, who were extremely reluctant to eat dinner together, showed that they had become much closer than before by going to eat together for the first time.

There is a saying that time heals everything.After all, everything is solved with time.The same goes for relationships.Rather than forcing relationships, the residents feel closer than before because they spend time in the same space and build up affection.However, some of the settings are still unnatural, which is a limitation.There is no explanation for the original question of why the growth narrative of the rascal is shown.Since the romance between Oh Yi-young and Gu Do-won’s in-laws is the core of the work, if you separate the hospital setting and the profession of a doctor, the character relationships are very well-suited.

‘Someday, the Life of a Wise Resident’ is interpreted as the most appropriate story development with the subtitle ‘(Respond to Oh Yi-young’s Heart)Gu Do-won ‘.Attention is being paid to whether a romance between a bachelor and a virgin will unfold in the future.

Meanwhile, the viewership ratings are good.Compared to the viewership ratings of the previous tvN Saturday-Sunday drama’ The Birds of Prey’, it is doing very well.The viewership ratings for the 4th episode recorded an average of 5.8% and a high of 6.5% for households in the metropolitan area, and an average of 5.1% and a high of 5.7% for households nationwide.The viewership ratings for tvN target audience of 2049 men and women also recorded an average of 2.7% and a high of 3.1% for the metropolitan area, and an average of 2.9% and a high of 3.3% for the entire country.(Paid platform, Nielsen Korea)
