Go Yoon-jung, Cynthia, Kang Yoo-seok, and Han Ye-ji each display different charms in the work.
In tvN weekend drama ‘Someday, My Family Residency’ (creator Shin Won-ho, Lee Woo-jung, director Lee Min-soo, scriptwriter Kim Song-hee), first-year residents in the obstetrics and gynecology department at Jongno Yulje Hospital, 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)are each continuing their hospital life in their own ways.Accordingly, the production team analyzed each character type surviving in the hospital.
The production team said, “After becoming an obstetrics and gynecology resident to pay off her debt, Oh Yi-young consistently appears to be uninterested in the world.However, as soon as she hears an emergency signal, she puts everything aside and goes to see the patient, and she also shows an extraordinary sense of responsibility, saying that if a patient is in trouble, she will never forget it for the rest of her life.Oh Yi-young, who never ran in any situation, runs to the hospital, making us look forward to the future of ‘Resident Oh Yi-young,’ who seems blunt on the outside but is warm on the inside.”
He continued, “Pyo Nam-kyung, a high school classmate of Oh Yi-young, is a character who dreams of becoming a doctor who leads the hospital while wearing a fluttering white gown and enters the obstetrics and gynecology department.She is an ‘all-rounder’ in obstetrics and gynecology, meticulously doing everything from charting to dressing.Although she receives praise from her professor, she gradually grows tired of the repetitive daily routine and the piled up work.Pyo Nam-kyung is about to give up everything, but she quickly regains her energy after a single word from a patient, and her bright smile as she devotes herself to her work makes you root for her.”
The production team said, “Uhm Jae-il has a unique background as a resident who started out as an idol, and he boasts an incredible friendliness to patients, nurses, and guardians alike.Uhm Jae-il’s strength and weakness is that he works hard.Uhm Jae-il stays up all night to look after his patients to fill in his lack of knowledge, and he eventually finds the right answer.Please pay attention to see if Uhm Jae-il’s passion will shine as he continues on his path without giving up even when he fails and gets scolded.”
Regarding Kim Sa-bi, he said, “She is a studious person who entered the field of obstetrics and gynecology with everyone’s attention, having taken first place from medical school to the national exam.She is evaluated as an unexpected weak point due to her speaking style that focuses on medical facts.Even when persuading a patient who refuses surgery, Kim Sa-bi’s awkward social life is pitiful as she looks at her textbooks.” However, he said, “We look forward to Kim Sa-bi’s growth as a doctor, as she successfully finds her own way to relieve the patient’s discomfort under the advice of Professor Seo Jeong-min(played by Lee Bong-ryeon)and upgrades her skills by one level.”
‘Someday, I Will Be a Wise Resident’ is a work that emphasizes the growth narrative of first-year residents.The story is centered around the romance between Oh Yi-young and Gu Do-won(played by Jung Joon-won), who are in-laws but live together as senior and junior residents at the hospital.The core story of ‘Someday, I Will Be a Wise Resident’ is the romance.Just like the production team said that they wanted to tell a story about people, if you take away the fact that they are doctors, it is a story about people meeting, forming relationships, becoming uncomfortable, becoming stronger, and falling in love.However, the fact that the framework of the doctor’s profession is dealt with in the process is a pitfall.The production team has already defined ‘political conflict’ and ‘medical community issues’ as uncomfortable elements.They begged for viewers to just look at the story of the work.
As the production team said, if you only look at the story, it may be that only ‘wise’ stories will unfold based on their experiences.Rather, that may be the charm of the Shin Won-ho Division story.Although it is set in a medical setting, it is noteworthy whether ‘Someday, I Will Be a Wise Resident’, which seems to be somewhat distant from reality and seems to have a past, can capture viewers with its character play.Fortunately, the production team also seems to have already secured a considerable number of fans for the character of Gu Do-won, played by Jung Joon-won, who is called a ‘trustworthy man’.
‘Someday, the Life of a Wise Resident’ airs every Saturday and Sunday at 9:20 PM.
