Actor Lee Jae-wook will not attend the production presentation for his new drama 'Doctor Island Boy'.

According to a StarNews investigation on the 6th, Lee Jae-wook will not attend the production presentation for ENA's new Monday-Tuesday drama 'Doctor Island Boy' (directed by Lee Myung-woo, written by Kim Ji-soo, planned by KT Studio Genie, produced by The Studio M), scheduled for later this month. This is because he is set to enlist to fulfill his national defense obligation on the 18th.

Although Lee Jae-wook will not be present at the production presentation, he plans to complete promotional schedules for the work before enlistment, including participating in the filming of the web variety show 'Bapneunyeong'.

'Doctor Island Boy' is a medical romantic comedy drama depicting Do Ji-ee (played by Lee Jae-wook), a public health physician who arrives on the notorious island 'Pyeondongdo' that everyone avoids, and Yook Ha-ri (played by Shin Ye-eun), a nurse with many secrets. The drama is drawing expectations from the meeting of popular young actors including Lee Jae-wook and Shin Ye-eun.

Lee Jae-wook, who is about to enlist, is expected to meet viewers through 'Doctor Island Boy' during the so-called 'military white period'. 'Doctor Island Boy' is scheduled to premiere on June 1.

Meanwhile, Lee Jae-wook, born on May 10, 1998, is 27 years old. He had originally planned to enlist last year, but the schedule was slightly delayed due to filming for his next work. During an interview last May regarding the Netflix series 'Tanggeum', he stated, "Enlistment cannot be postponed further. This is the deadline." Therefore, he decided to enlist after completing filming for 'Doctor Island Boy'.

An OTT next work is also scheduled. The Netflix series 'Honey Part-time Job', featuring Go Min-si, Kim Min-ha, and Lee Hee-jun, is expected to be released in the second half of this year.
