'Doctor X' Lee Jung-eun Transforms into Jang Hee-sook, the Director of a Doctor Outsourcing Agency

The new SBS Friday-Saturday drama 'Doctor X' will premiere on October 9 (Friday) at 9:50 PM. This work aims to be a refreshing medical noir where the genius surgeon 'Gye Su-jeong', known as Doctor X, stands against massive corruption.

Actor Lee Jung-eun has taken on the role of 'Jang Hee-sook', the director of a doctor outsourcing agency who chases money. While Jang Hee-sook appears talkative and materialistic on the surface, she is actually a clever strategist who leads business based on excellent survival skills. She is expected to drive the plot forward by dispatching the agency's ace, Gye Su-jeong, to Guseo University Hospital.

Jang Hee-sook's Dual Charm and Points to Watch

In the released stills, Lee Jung-eun is seen demonstrating experienced sales skills while wearing a capitalist smile. On the other hand, at negotiation tables or in surgical observation rooms, she reveals the multi-dimensional aspects of her character by creating tension with a cold expression, devoid of laughter. The production team stated that Lee Jung-eun has completed a unique character by moving between playfulness and seriousness.

In particular, the relationship between Jang Hee-sook and Gye Su-jeong is also a major point to watch. Beyond being simple contract partners, the two are expected to showcase a unique 'womance' chemistry by forming a bond similar to an aunt and niece.
