While the resident strike is still not over... Will the new Saturday/Sunday TV series ”Someday, a Wise Resident Life” be able to overcome the critical public opinion?

As the TV series "Resident Evil: The Rise of a New Resident" premieres today (12th), expectations and concerns coexist.
tvN's new Saturday and Sunday TV series "Someday, a Smart Resident" is a drama that will make you dream of becoming a smart doctor someday.
A spin-off TV series of "Hospital Playlist" that depicts the process of residents growing as they go through a period when they're not sure if they like their jobs.
It is the first spin-off TV series of "Hospital Playlist" and stars actor Go Youn Jung.
The fresh combination of actors, including Shin Sia, Kang You Seok, and Han Ye Ji, has attracted a lot of attention. "Resident Life" was originally scheduled to air in the first half of last year, but the government
The medical school admission quota increase policy was hit hard by the impact of the strike by medical residents, including residents. As the medical strike continues, the organization of "Someday I'll Be a Smart Resident" will continue to be
The film was postponed. Despite the ongoing strike against medical residents, the show decided to go ahead with its release.
Creator Wonho explained the reason for the delay in production, saying, "We were worried. This happened halfway through filming, and we didn't know when it would end."
He continued, "I want people to see the beautiful story of young people as it is, but I'm worried that people will distort it for other reasons and logic and read it differently.
"I was worried that it would be canceled," he confessed. tvN's Saturday and Sunday TV series are currently in a slump. From the highly anticipated "Because the Stars Are Rumored" which was worth tens of billions of won, to the local TV series "Potato
Even "The Resident Research Institute" suffered the humiliation of only receiving 1-2% viewership ratings. In this situation, expectations are high for "Someday, a Wise Resident" to break the slump in viewership ratings.
In particular, "Resident Life" is a work that inherits the world view of "Hospital Playlist," which was loved with a viewer rating of 14.1%.
Not only Goo, Jung Kyung-ho, Yoo Young-seok, Jeon Mi Do, and Kim Dae Myung, but also Ahn Eun Jin and Kim Jun Han will be making special appearances.
Writer Kim Sung-hee said, "I want to continue the story of Yuljae, maintain the tone and atmosphere of the story of 'Hospital Playlist,' and make it familiar and easy to read.
"We decided to change the characters to residents, to add a new level of excitement to the story by showing the young characters growing up," he said, explaining the production process.
Regarding the choice of obstetrics and gynecology as the background for "Someday, a Smart Resident Life," he said, "I think it's because
"I decided to choose obstetrics because I felt that the story of obstetrics and gynecology - babies are born, families are started, people grow old, and loved ones die - was the most similar to the story of a human life," he said.
However, it remains to be seen whether such a TV series-like setting will work in reality. On the 11th, the Ministry of Health and Welfare said in a document, "The number of people who were appointed in March this year was 1,672, which is 12.4% of the total number of people.
This means that 11,859 interns did not return to the training hospital after quitting.
In February, the Ministry of Health and Welfare sent a letter to the office of Kim Yoon, a member of the National Assembly's Health and Welfare Committee,
According to the documents submitted, of the 199 resigned resident doctors who applied to 221 training hospitals across the country between the 15th and 19th of last month, there was only one applicant, a fourth-year resident in obstetrics and gynecology.
Park Yong Woo, a 20-something office worker who often watches TV series, said, "I enjoyed 'Hospital Playlist' so much that I was looking forward to seeing the same worldview continue in the series.
On the other hand, Kim Su Min, an office worker in her 30s, said, "The reality is that nowadays, even if you're not feeling well, you have to worry about whether you can get treatment at a hospital, but I feel like there's a big gap between that and reality.
I don't know if I'll be able to watch the TV series as a TV series," said A, a nurse in the operating room at a university hospital who has been there for eight years and requested anonymity. "It was very difficult because of the resident strike, and now
"I saw the teaser for the TV series, but it reminded me of the past year. It seems difficult to watch," he confessed.
It will be interesting to see whether "Living as a Resident" can approach viewers intelligently and gain the same warm feelings of appreciation and sympathy as before.
"Someday, I'll Be a Smart Resident" will premiere on the 12th at 9:10 pm.
