The new SBS Friday-Saturday drama 'Doctor X' has released the Episode 1 teaser, which previews the activities of Kim Ji-won, who will cause a massive stir at Guseo University Hospital, raising the anticipation of prospective viewers to its peak.

Scheduled to premiere on October 9 (Fri), the new SBS Friday-Saturday drama 'Doctor X' (produced by Studio S, Studio Dragon, and HighZium Studio / hereinafter 'Doctor X') is a refreshing medical noir depicting the activities of 'the crazy lady of the operating room,' Dr. X 'Gye Su-jeong,' who breaks down massive corruption with genius surgical skills that know neither failure nor compromise. It is gathering expectations as SBS's top tentpole IP for the second half of the year, continuing the unique streak of hits such as 'Agent Kim Reactivated,' 'Taxi Driver,' 'The Fiery Priest,' and 'The Judge from Hell.' Furthermore, it is drawing intense interest as director Lee Jeong-rim, who directed the dramas 'VIP,' 'Revenant,' and 'As You Stood By,' joins forces with a powerful lineup of trusted actors including Kim Ji-won (as Gye Su-jeong), Lee Jung-eun (as Jang Hui-suk), Son Hyun-joo (as Bu Seung-gwon), and Kim Woo-seok (as Park Tae-gyeong).

As if to prove this, the preview videos for Episodes 1 and 2 of 'Doctor X' released on the 2nd (Fri) have surpassed 3.89 million views (total SBS official YouTube views as of 10/6) within just 4 days of release, generating explosive buzz every day ahead of the first broadcast.

In the midst of this, 'Doctor X' has caught attention by releasing the Episode 1 teaser (https://youtu.be/nhQVFnVIVdo?si=rzpiV6oXCPnMLD7W) today (6th). The released video captures attention by opening with a scene where Gye Su-jeong enters the operating room, while also raising curiosity about their first meeting and the meaning of 'X' as Gye Su-jeong makes a large 'X' sign when Park Tae-gyeong asks for her name after they meet outside the hospital.

Following this, the scene unfolds at Guseo University Hospital, where a massive stir is caused by the appearance of freelance doctor Gye Su-jeong, who was dispatched from a doctor labor agency, making it impossible to take one's eyes off for a moment. Gye Su-jeong takes a bold, direct approach without compromising with existing hierarchies and authority. She leaves a strong impression by boldly raising the question, "Why is this an open surgery?" in a large auditorium filled with doctors, walking through the crowd of white coats without hesitation, and declaring with a determined expression, "Everyone, I absolutely will not do it." This contrasts with the Guseo University Hospital doctors who worry, saying, "Because of this person, everything might be shaken," stimulating curiosity about the whirlwind development starting from the first episode.

At the end of the video, tension rises as the desperate voice of Park Tae-gyeong, who is left alone in the operating room shouting, "What do we do if everyone leaves? There is no one left," intersects with the heavy charisma of Hospital Director Bu Seung-gwon, who drops the ominous words, "It's just a tail that can be cut off anyway." It provokes curiosity about what is happening in the operating room and the true intention behind Bu Seung-gwon's words. The ending features the 'Doctor X' logo being intensely engraved along with the mysterious smile of Jang Hui-suk (played by Lee Jung-eun), the head of the doctor labor agency, and her confident voice saying, "She is our agency's top ace," driving up expectations for Gye Su-jeong's activities that will shake Guseo University Hospital.

The new SBS Friday-Saturday drama 'Doctor X,' ambitiously presented by SBS, a master of the refreshing genre, will premiere on October 9 (Fri) at 9:50 PM.
