Rain, Kim Bum, Uee, And Apink's Son Naeun Share Reasons To Look Forward To "Ghost Doctor"

The main cast of tvN’s “Ghost Doctor” has shared behind-the-scenes stories and picked out the drama’s key points!

Helmed by “Heirs” director Boo Sung Chul, “Ghost Doctor” is an upcoming fantasy medical drama about two doctors who could not be more different in terms of their backgrounds, skills, or personalities, but who end up combining bodies and spirits. The drama stars Rain, Kim Bum, Uee, and Apink’s Son Naeun, all of whom shared key points to look forward to in “Ghost Doctor.”

Rain, who plays genius thoracic surgeon Cha Young Min, commented, “Since it’s my first medical drama, I had a hard time with the long lines and difficult medical terminology.” He continued, “I think ‘Ghost Doctor’ is a family drama that a family can watch together comfortably. There are fantasy aspects mixed with thriller aspects. Additionally, since it captures the joys and sorrows of various characters, I think viewers will be able to enjoy the drama that much more if they follow the characters. I guarantee it’s a drama you’ll watch until the very end if you tune in just once, so please look forward to it lots.”

Kim Bum plays silver-spoon resident Go Seung Tak. He shared, “The most memorable scene for me is the one where Go Seung Tak and Cha Young Min’s cooperation officially begins. Personally, I think this is what leads to Go Seung Tak facing a new side of himself, and it also signals a new beginning in the story.”

He added, “When you just hear the title, you might think, ‘It’ll be a medical drama or a fantasy horror drama with ghosts.’ However, ‘Ghost Doctor’ is a drama that deals with ‘stories of people living,’ told by those who haven’t yet died and those currently living. That’s why I think that it’s a drama that even people who may initially be deterred by the genre can enjoy and watch comfortably, so please look forward to it lots.”

Uee plays neurosurgeon Jang Se Jin, who happens to be Cha Young Min’s ex-girlfriend. Sharing an anecdote from the set, Uee remarked, “One funny thing on the set was that there were a lot of times when I had to act like I couldn’t see Cha Young Min or other ghosts. However, I’d subconsciously notice them and burst into laughter, which led to a couple bloopers.”

Uee added, “The drama title is ‘Ghost Doctor,’ but I think there will be fun in finding out who’s a ghost and who’s a doctor. Also, the chemistry between Cha Young Min, Go Seung Tak, Jang Se Jin, and Oh Soo Jung is important, so if you watch while focusing on that, you’ll feel like time is flying by.”

Son Naeun plays emergency room intern Oh Soo Jung, and the actress shared a similar anecdote to Uee’s. She elaborated, “It’s not easy to think of [Cha Young Min] as someone who isn’t there. I also think this is an anecdote that’s unique to our drama, which makes it that much more memorable.”

She continued, “If you focus on the hidden special relationships between the characters and their individual charms, you’ll be able to enjoy watching the drama even more. In addition to that, there are many elements that make ‘Ghost Doctor’ different, so I hope you give lots of attention to each episode.”

tvN’s “Ghost Doctor” premieres on January 3 at 10:30 p.m. KST and will be available with subtitles on Viki.
