Actor Han Jung-soo shared his thoughts on the controversy surrounding the drama "Doctor X: The Age of the White Mafia," which is based on the the 18th Democratization Movement.

On the 26th, Han posted a poster and stills from the SBS Friday-Saturday drama "Doctor X: The Age of the White Mafia" (hereinafter referred to as "Doctor X") on his social media account.

Along with the posts, he wrote, "A request to suspend broadcasting? Are you crazy? Why are you making a fuss again?"

He continued, "I don't usually watch dramas much, but I am really enjoying 'Doctor X' these days. Thank you," revealing himself to be a devoted viewer.

The controversy mentioned by Han stemmed from the episode of "Doctor X" broadcast on the 24th. The episode featured the story of Oh Sang-beom (played by Ha Seong-gwang), a patient who suffered a head wound from gunfire by martial law forces during the the 18th Democratization Movement and has been dealing with aftereffects for over 40 years. In the drama, genius surgeon Gye Su-jeong (played by Kim Ji-won) took charge of Oh's surgery, and a fictional former president named Ji Du-seok also appeared toward the end of the broadcast.

After the broadcast, some viewers pointed out that the drama dealt with the the 18th Democratization Movement and demanded a suspension of broadcasting, even filing a petition on the National Assembly website. It appears that Han, a devoted viewer of "Doctor X," voiced his opinion in response.

Meanwhile, "Doctor X" is a medical noir drama depicting the activities of Gye Su-jeong, a doctor with genius-level surgical skills who knows no failure or compromise and breaks down massive injustices.
