Doctor Cha Jung-sook reboots her life in first teaser
by Jenzy
How do you restart a career after over 20 years on the bench? With its premiere approaching next month, Doctor Cha Jung-sook has started its promotional run with a teaser starring its titular lead Uhm Jung-hwa (Our Blues).
Our lead Cha Jung-sook was once a thriving doctor, but after marrying the strict and controlling surgery department head Seo In-ho, played by Kim Byung-chul (All of Us Are Dead), she hung up her doctor’s gown in exchange for a housewife apron. However, 20 years later, she’s now ready to stand up for her dreams and go back to the hospital, even if it means starting over as a first-year resident. But in an industry all too keen on leaving people like her behind, the question remains: will she be able to stay afloat in the torrent of hospital buzz?
Filling out the rest of the main cast, we also have Myung Se-bin (Bossam: Steal the Fate) playing Choi Seung-hee, a family medicine doctor and In-ho’s first love (don’t love the sound of that), and Min Woo-hyuk (People with Flaws) playing Roy Kim, a free-spirited surgeon and epic flirt.
In the teaser, Jung-sook pensively sips coffee, while the on-screen text says, “to the one whose heart still burns, this is your fresh start.”
We then get a dramatic cut to Jung-sook’s hectic life back as a doctor — attempting to help a choking man on a bus, getting flustered at the sight of blood in the ER, and receiving a scolding from her (much younger) superior. In the voiceover she resignedly tells us, “Yes, it might be hard to believe, but I am a doctor. I know my life is about to drastically change.”
But it’s in the ending shots of Jung-sook’s confused, joyful, and even angry faces where it’s hinted that, although the road ahead will be tough, this decision will lead to the most fulfilling journey in Jung-sook’s life.
Written by Jung Yeo-rang and directed by Kim Dae-jin (King of Pigs), Doctor Cha Jung-sook will premiere on April 15 on JTBC.
