Actors Chu Young-woo and Kim So-hyun are returning to the small screen with a melodrama that portrays the deep emotional journeys of incomplete youths.
On the 1st, the production team of ENA's new Monday-Tuesday drama 'Dating Doctor' (directed by Ahn Pan-seok, written by Min Hyo-jung, planned by KT Studio Genie, produced by Studio GOTY), which premieres on October 5, unveiled two mood teaser videos capturing the hot and heart-fluttering moments of the two main characters falling in love.
"Dr. Dating" tells the story of Park Min-jae, a doctoral student who was an active swimmer in high school but lost a leg due to illness, and Lim Yu-jin, a master's student seeking a new path after internal conflicts regarding her career. Set against the backdrop of a robotics lab, the drama promises to evoke excitement and delightful laughter through its spicy yet sweet love story and the vivid daily lives of graduate students. Anticipation is high for the chemistry between the two actors as they portray the joys and sorrows of youth who are clumsy at love.
The fact that it is directed by the master of melodrama, Ahn Pan-seok, is also drawing attention. The collaboration between Director Ahn, who excels at expressing subtle emotional nuances, and writer Min Hyo-jung, who penned "Rooftop Cat" and "Full House," promises a high-quality melodrama.
The released teaser video captivates viewers with its emotional atmosphere. The sight of them walking in step under a single umbrella, along with their heartfelt confessions to one another, leaves a gentle resonance. Subsequently, the sweet conversation, bright smiles, and tightly clasped hands shared while eating candy in the back seat of a bus heighten anticipation for the romance.
Chu Young-woo takes on the role of a doctoral student who gives up his dream due to an unexpected illness and embarks on a new path in robotics engineering, portraying a diligent character who is awkward at expressing his emotions. Kim So-hyun plays a master's student who, amidst confusion regarding her career path, is stigmatized within her department due to an unexpected incident, opens her eyes to the field of robotics engineering, and moves forward in both love and research.
ENA's new Monday-Tuesday drama 'Dating Doctor' will premiere on ENA on October 5 at 10 PM, and will also be released on KT Genie TV and Disney .
