The second teaser for the new SBS Friday-Saturday drama 'Doctor X: Era of the White Mafia' has been officially released. Curiosity surges regarding the identity of the veiled 'Doctor X' Kim Ji-won, caught between being a genius doctor who saves lives and a dangerous doctor obsessed with surgery.

Scheduled to premiere on October 9 (Fri), the new SBS Friday-Saturday drama 'Doctor X: Era of the White Mafia' (produced by Studio S, Studio Dragon, HighZium Studio / hereinafter 'Doctor X') is a cathartic medical noir depicting the activities of 'Doctor X' Gye Su-jeong, a 'crazy strategist of the operating room' who breaks down massive corruption with genius surgical skills that know neither failure nor compromise. It is garnering anticipation as the first medical genre entry in the 'SBS Cathartic Universe', which continues a unique streak of hits with '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 the industry-watched writer Pyeon Seong-geun, alongside a powerful lead cast 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).

In the midst of this, the 'Doctor X' team is drawing attention by releasing the second teaser (https://youtu.be/uFG-xMNz8Hc?si=UmLIRIME66REiotA) on the 16th (Wed). The released video opens with the voice of Gye Su-jeong reciting the Hippocrates oath as a doctor. Unlike other medical school graduates gathered in the grand auditorium to take the oath, the sight of Gye Su-jeong, dressed in a graduation cap and gown, standing alone before someone and continuing the oath, saying, "On my honor, I swear all this of my own free will, as a doctor," adds to the curiosity regarding her hidden story.

Following this, intense scenes unfold without pause, ranging from Gye Su-jeong performing surgery without hesitation to a shocking crisis where she is being strangled by someone. Amidst these, the phrase 'the most dangerous doctor' and the reactions of those shaking their heads, saying, "Isn't she completely crazy about surgery?", push the curiosity about the character of Gye Su-jeong—who possesses incomparable skills but has a dangerous side that cannot be explained by the existing order—to its peak.

In the latter half of the video, the gaze of Gye Su-jeong, tilting her head with an unreadable expression while wearing a mask in the operating room, and the line from hospital director Bu Seung-gwon (played by Son Hyun-joo), who asks in a low voice, "Is Gye Su-jeong Doctor X?", leave a powerful lingering impression. Expectations for the broadcast are rising regarding what Gye Su-jeong's true identity is and what the meaning hidden behind the name 'Doctor X' might be.

Meanwhile, SBS's new Friday-Saturday drama 'Doctor X: Era of the White Mafia', the most anticipated work for the second half of 2026 from the master of the cathartic genre SBS, will premiere on October 9 (Fri) at 9:50 PM.
