Smart Doctor Living releases new teaser featuring main cast
by tineybeanie
Long-anticipated hospital drama Smart Doctor Living has released its second teaser, featuring the tight-knit quintet of doctors that comprise our main characters, Jo Jung-seok (Nokdu Flower), Kim Dae-myung (The Sound of Your Heart), Jung Kyung-ho (When the Devil Calls Your Name), Yoo Yeon-seok (Mr. Sunshine), and Jeon Mi-do (Mother)
The drama tells the story of the quotidien ongoings at the hospital where life’s most extreme moments from birth to death happen. These five friends from medical school work together, laugh together and cry together as they mature through their shared unique experiences.
In the recently released 15-second teaser, Jeon Mi-do narrates as Yoo Yeon-seok scrubs in for surgery: “Brace yourself. The work is tiring but you get used to it after a while. But our work, it’s not the type of work we should get used to… is it?”
Frantic scenes of Jung Kyung-ho running through the hospital halls and Kim Dae-myung stifling his sobs can be seen. The teaser ends with Jo Jung-seok at his desk saying, “Let’s save another precious human life today.”
The writer and director duo behind the Answer Me series, Lee Woo-jung and Shin Won-ho respectively, are reuniting for this drama. With the title of the drama being similar to PD Shin Won-ho’s previous drama, Smart Prison Living, I can’t help but wonder if the two will be related in some way.
Thursday night tvN drama Smart Doctor Living will begin airing on March 12, and will also be available via Netflix.
Via IS Plus

After months of inactivity on DB I finally logged in because of this.
This is what I never knew I needed until this moment.
"Pleasant surprise" would not suffice. Bring. It. On.

That's what I thought, too. I really hate that things are getting broken into seasons like this. If I wanted seasons, I'd watch Grey's Anatomy. 12 episodes is going to leave us hanging and it's going to be painful to wait a year for the next 12. Up until I read about the seasons, I was over the moon excited to watch this.

Netflix had nothing to do with it. The director wanted to do it in seasons. It's been planned as a season based drama since it was first announced. Just like Chief of Staff. It's a new trend in drama land.

It must have more monetary value. It must be why so many directors are opting for it. Asdal will have another season too and apparently Vagabond might get another season because the director ended it abruptly on purpose.
panshel
March 8, 2020 at 3:13 PM
But what all those dramas (Chief of Staff, Arthdal Chronicles, Vagabond, Kingdom, Love Alarm, My First First Love) have in common is Netflix, so I'm still inclined to blame Netflix.
Nu
March 9, 2020 at 6:30 AM
But only Kingdom, Love Alarm and First Love are controlled by Netflix. Others are making their own decisions to do seasons Netflix buys them later. Maybe they started the trend but other directors are choosing to follow them.

@panshel that's the truth! I just looked her up and I was excited to see that at least she was age appropriate for our lead actors. I was afraid she'd be the only female main character and a newbie and way too young for them.

Thankfully, the five of them are friends from medical school. Smart Doctor Living is like if the Reply 1988 friends all became doctors.

I assume this is more similar to Prison Playbook and not the Reply series. So there probably won't be any guess the husband game. I personally hope there isn't any.

Two episodes per week is one of the reasons why I love K-dramas.
I hope they are not going down the US tv route with this one eps per week.

Kdramas like to end the episode with a cliffhanger. One episode will be really frustrating.

TvN have made a change to the their schedule that gonna take place with new dramas coming this month!
This drama is gonna air on Thursday 9 pm before Momorist at 10:50 pm (wed - thur drama)! Apparently that late time slot is tailor made for late hour dramas. What I been reading is that the time slot 9 pm gonna alternate between dramas and variety programs that gonna air once a week.
Mon - thue dramas gonna start 9 pm and they say that drama that gonna air on this time slot is aimed at wide variety of audience.
What I am trying to say with this is that we should be used to some TvN dramas airing once a week, but most of them gonna have the standar airing two episodes a week. So no worry about that. :)

I have saved my one tvN viewing slot for HOSPITAL PLAYLIST. I have to limit myself to one tvN drama at a time only because of episode length. I still don’t believe the Netflix press release that said each episode will be 60 minutes.

The alternate title is Hospital Playlist. I read somewhere that they are part of a band (hailing back to their Med school days?). So music is going to feature heavily - love it already. 3 of the cast (JJS, YYS and JMD) are have musical theatre roots? JJS, YYS, JKH and JMD - they can all sing. Not sure about KDM but chances are they were all recruited so they can actually play and sing...in a band... should be lit. The lady Jeon MiDo has primarily been in Musical Theatre I think. Makes sense now why PD chose this cast.
