Actress Lee Jin-hee is captivating audiences with her outstanding performance in "Doctor X: The Age of the White Mafia." Her passionate actions, which contrast sharply with her indifferent tone of voice, amplified the true worth of her character, "Jo Won-jin."

In episodes 7 and 8 of SBS's Friday-Saturday drama "Doctor X: The Age of the White Mafia" (screenplay by Pyun Seong-geun, directed by Lee Jung-rim, hereinafter referred to as "Doctor X"), which aired on the 30th and 31st of last month, Lee Jin-hee appeared as an anesthesiology professor at Guseo University Hospital. She demonstrated everything from the desperation of saving patients to her witty chemistry with colleagues and her resolute determination to protect a junior colleague. Critics have praised her for making the character's charm even more vivid by combining her unwavering conviction in the face of adversity with a heart that considers the lives of her patients.

In particular, Lee Jin-hee elicited laughter as "Boring Won-jin" through her weary expression toward Gye Su-jeong (played by Kim Ji-won) and her dry tone when responding to the banter of Kim Seong-jin (played by Heo Jun-seok). She depicted the playful back-and-forth with her colleagues in an enjoyable way, capturing the nuances of her facial reactions to others' words and the flavor of her casually tossed lines.

In the scene where she protects her junior colleague Park Tae-kyung (played by Kim Woo-seok), Lee Jin-hee commanded the atmosphere with nothing but her voice and gaze. She portrayed resoluteness by shifting from a sharp shout stopping the conflict between interns to a cold tone demanding an apology.

Lee Jin-hee consistently maintained a sense of responsibility, staying in her place until the end while vividly portraying surprise, fatigue, and even a nervous laugh. By flexibly moving between tension and humor, she revealed the presence of Jo Won-jin, a character where coolness and humanity coexist. Meanwhile, "Doctor X: The Age of the White Mafia" airs every Friday and Saturday at 9:50 p.m.
