Actor Kim Mu-yeol is set to continue generating hot buzz by appearing in 'First Doctor'.

On the 23rd, Kim Mu-yeol's agency stated, "Kim Mu-yeol has confirmed his appearance in the new Netflix series 'First Doctor'."

In the recently released Netflix series 'True Education', Kim Mu-yeol played the role of 'Na Hwa-jin', an inspector from the Teacher Rights Protection Bureau, delivering a powerful performance. Thanks to his acting, 'True Education' has topped the Netflix Global Top 10 Non-English Shows list since its release, reaching number one in 46 countries including South Korea, Japan, and Singapore, continuously breaking box office records. As global attention focuses on Kim Mu-yeol, who drove the drama, his confirmed appearance in the new Netflix series 'First Doctor' promises a new acting transformation, further raising public expectations.

'First Doctor' depicts a breathless story unfolding at the front lines of life, where doctors face the most fragile lives, following surgeon Heo Ji-wan (played by Jung Ryeo-won), whose hospital is on the brink of collapse.

In the drama, Kim Mu-yeol plays 'Bae Soo-wol', a professor of anesthesiology and pain medicine at Yeonhwa University Hospital. A colleague who has known Heo Ji-wan for a long time, he is portrayed as a friendly character with a warm and approachable personality. Kim Mu-yeol is expected to bring diverse interest to the episodes set at Yeonhwa University Hospital through his solid acting skills and ability to embody the character. Attention is focused on his star-level performance, which completes the golden lineup of 'First Doctor' alongside Jung Ryeo-won, Ha Yoon-kyung, Baek Hyun-jin, and Kim Jong-soo.

Meanwhile, 'First Doctor' will be released on Netflix.
