Actor Son Hyun-joo drew attention for his portrayal of realistic leadership in the drama "Doctor X."

In episodes 7 and 8 of SBS' Friday-Saturday drama "Doctor X," Son played Boo Seung-gwon, the president of Guseo University Hospital, who permitted Kye Su-jeong's surgery amid a situation where operations were being canceled due to medical staffing shortages, while also tracking her identity.

In the episodes aired on the 30th and 31st, Boo Seung-gwon determined that the foreign object removed during Oh Sang-beom's surgery was not a bullet but a bone fragment, and then inquired about the reason Kye Su-jeong had insisted on performing the operation. He also displayed an attitude of seeking to understand her judgment.

Boo Seung-gwon subsequently revealed the background behind his decision regarding Oh Sang-beom's surgery and his conviction as a physician at a press conference. Episode 8 also disclosed his past, when he served as the representative for the Hippocratic Oath upon graduating from medical school, alongside the present reality of hospital operations being disrupted by medical staffing shortages.

Amid consecutive surgery cancellations due to a shortage of medical staff, Boo Seung-gwon permitted the operation after assessing the risks once Kye Su-jeong expressed her determination to proceed. Toward the end of the broadcast, Boo Seung-gwon, having observed Kye Su-jeong's surgical skills, asked Jang Hee-suk about the connection between the physician previously known as "Doctor X" and Kye Su-jeong, adding dramatic tension.

"Doctor X" airs every Friday and Saturday at 9:50 p.m.
