Kim Ji-won successfully returned to the living room two years after “Queen of Tears” with “Doctor X.”

In the first episode of SBS’s new Friday-Saturday drama “Doctor X,” which aired on the 9th, Gye Su-jung (played by Kim Ji-won) was urgently deployed to Guseo University Hospital to fill a gap caused by a medical strike.

Jang Hee-sook (played by Lee Jeong-eun), the director of a medical staffing agency, introduced her as “A figure who appeared in the era of the white mafia. Her only weapons are her medical license and surgical skills honed from the ground up. Gye Su-jung, the surgeon. Also known as Doctor X.”

Gye Su-jung confronted those in power from day one. Attending a reference meeting for a gallbladder cancer patient of Kim Myeong-seop (Director), she pointed out, “Why are you performing an open surgery? You seem excited to get a call after a long time. If the call is reckless, then what about the designation?”

She continued, unable to hold back her sharp tongue: “If the people in white coats here have medical licenses, it is appropriate to use a laparoscopic surgeon. Since you dislike the word ‘reckless,’ this phrasing is correct. Your greed for power is excessive.”

To the doctors who did not stop the hospital director’s surgery, she delivered a cutting remark: “This is why I hate you guys. I hate you. People who only studied to make money and rise in status.”

In particular, she said coldly, “You bow down before professors but act recklessly in front of patients. You irresponsible people who entrust surgeries to old men. You complacent people who think about how to just let things slide. People who are merely doctors. Hey, you guys are really terrible,” leaving her fellow doctors in shock.

Despite Gye Su-jung’s sharp criticism, the hospital director proceeded with an open surgery against better judgment and collapsed due to a latex allergy. The doctors were busy tending to the director instead of the patient undergoing surgery, prompting Gye Su-jung to rush into the operating room.

Thanks to Gye Su-jung, the patient survived, but the director, upon regaining consciousness, fired her. Gye Su-jung left the hospital without looking back, but Bu Seung-gwon (played by Son Hyun-joo), who had witnessed her surgical skills with his own eyes, was different.

He intimidated the director, saying, “How long have you been away from surgery? I heard you were even receiving boxes at a staffing agency. Since part-time employment is paid for by hospital funds, are you lining your own pockets? Breathe. There is only one thing I want,” and seized the title of hospital director.

It was also Bu Seung-gwon who brought Gye Su-jung back. He praised her, saying, “You have an excellent track record. I have never seen such quick hands,” but then said coldly, “It is just a tail that can be cut off anyway. We will tie it to the other problems of this hospital.”

“Doctor X” is a drama depicting the activities of Gye Su-jung, “Doctor X,” who shatters massive injustices with her genius surgical skills that know no failure or compromise. It is based on the Japanese “Doctor X” series broadcast by TV Asahi.

Kim Ji-won perfectly embodied Gye Su-jung, known as “the crazy one in the operating room.” Returning to the small screen two years after tvN’s drama “Queen of Tears,” she proved her successful comeback not only with a character transformation but also by completely changing her voice.
