‘Someday, a Wise Resident Life’ (abbreviated as ‘Unsuljeon’) contains the process of residents growing up with dreams of becoming a wise doctor one day.It is the first spin-off of the ‘Wise Doctor Life’ series.It deals with the story of residents in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Jongno Yulje Hospital.Go Yoon-jung, Cynthia, Kang Yoo-seok, Han Ye-ji, and Jung Joon-won each play the role of a resident.
As the negative views on the work due to ‘medical issues’ continued after the first and second episodes were aired on the 12th and 13th, the production team held an event called ‘Director’s Talk ‘immediately after the first and second episodes aired, which was unusual.
Creator Shin Won-ho said, “I actually had a prejudice(about Go Yoon-jung).” He explained his first impression, saying, “I had a prejudice that’ actresses who look like that would be like that.’ I thought someone that beautiful would have an attitude that matched that, but she was a character I had never seen before.People often use the expression ‘candid’, but this was the first time I’ve seen such a candid actress.”
While saying this, he said, “I often hear that my speech is like that of an elementary school boy.I thought it would be fun if that kind of speech was applied to the character of Oh Yi-young.The production team also agreed that it was Go Yoon-jung.Go Yoon-jung’s strengths are outstanding and incredible.” They continued, “Go Yoon-jung’s strengths are not only her looks but also her expressionlessness.There are few actors who know how to make their expressions zero, but Go Yoon-jung has a blank expression and you can’t tell what she’s thinking.That’s the greatest power.Even if she uses very little, she can convey a lot of emotion.The amplitude can convey a lot of emotion.She’s the type who’s sincere and works hard, so there’s a lot of room for growth in the future.”
