Actor Jung Seok-yong will stand at the center of power in the medical field in "Doctor X."

His agency, Billionz, announced on the 1st that "Jung Seok-yong will appear as Kim Chang-su in SBS's new Friday-Saturday drama 'Doctor X: The Age of the White Mafia.'"

"Doctor X: The Age of the White Mafia" (hereinafter referred to as "Doctor X") is a refreshing medical noir depicting the activities of "the mad genius of the operating room," Doctor X "Gye Su-jung," who shatters massive injustices with his genius surgical skills that know no failure or compromise. Actors Kim Ji-won, Lee Jeong-eun, and Son Hyun-ju, among others, star in the series.

In the drama, Jung Seok-yong takes on the role of Kim Chang-su, a key member of the Magnolia Society and the president of the Sunnam City Medical Association. Kim Chang-su is a figure with influence in the medical field, and Jung Seok-yong is expected to play a pivotal role in the power struggles within the drama, adding tension through this character.

Until now, Jung Seok-yong has shown different shades for each character in various works such as the dramas "Beethoven Virus," "Tree with Deep Roots," "Misaeng: Incomplete Life," "Signal," and "The Art of Negotiation." In particular, in Season 2 of the Netflix series "D.P.," he portrayed the cold and relentless villain Second Lieutenant Oh Min-woo, revealing a powerful presence different from his previous approachable image. Additionally, in the MBC drama "50:50," which concluded last June, he took on the role of Lee Cheol-jin, the leader of North Korea's special forces unit, showcasing a heavy charisma.

As such, attention is turning to how Jung Seok-yong, who has handled everything from approachable acting to chilling charisma, will depict the authority and inner thoughts of Kim Chang-su in "Doctor X."

"Doctor X" premieres on the 9th.
