Joo Sang-wook and Moon Chae-won suit up for Good Doctor

by girlfriday

Helloooooo, doc. I have no idea if this drama’s going to hold up story-wise, but everyone sure does look amazing. Now that we’ve seen Joo-won looking dapper on the set of his new medical drama Good Doctor, here’s a peek at his co-stars Joo Sang-wook and Moon Chae-won getting into character.

The new series from the writer of the OCN forensic procedural God’s Quiz takes place in the pediatric surgical department of a university hospital, and will essentially be a workplace drama about the lives and loves of the doctors. But to keep it interesting, Joo-won plays an autistic savant who struggles socially, but has an extraordinary gift for surgery.

Joo Sang-wook plays the assistant professor who will mentor the fellows, and come to make their lives a living hell. He’s the tough, arrogant, challenging teacher who’s also the No.1 skilled surgeon in the hospital. He’s described as enterprising and responsible, with the charisma of the devil — basically, don’t cross him. He’ll start out the drama engaged to Kim Min-seo, daughter of the head of the hospital board, but eventually fall for Moon Chae-won.

Moon Chae-won is playing a second-year surgical fellow, who’s described as smart and highly principled. She has a strong sense of duty and will speak her mind freely, and will be known for her blunt, unaffected way of speaking. She sounds like a warmer, gentler version of her Nice Guy character, which I already like. She’ll be just as truthy, but with a heart.

Good Doctor follows current Monday-Tuesday drama Shark, and premieres August 5 on KBS.

I like Joo-won but when you place him next to Joo Sang-wook he looks like a little boy :( Not that its a bad thing... but it makes me feel like a Pedobear :.< Only drama she shined in for me was The Princess' Man~<3 She should totally marry Park Shi Hoo and make pretty babies :D Thats one on-screen ship I wish would sail in real life!

I know!

I'll go for him too without a second thought. I always love him without knowing exactly why I love him so. And it hurts seeing him losing the girl almost every time.

Sometimes when he smiles I swear I thought him the most handsome man on earth.

Please give him the girl. I have nothing against Joo-won or other male leads but it's Joo Sang Wook!

This looks interesting even though I generally bypass (heh) medical dramas. Too much Grey's Anatomy at one point...

How cute that Ms. Moon has that little felt fox on her pocket - eight of those tails are missing!

If it is a drama that I simply can't resist to watch even if it gets bad reviews, I go for it and even end up loving it....

But Good Doctor isn't making me excited much, so I'm gonna watch it if the majority likes it.....I can at least give it a try then :)

I love the picture of Joo Won lurking behind her. I made an embarrassing little "squee!" When I noticed he was also in the shot.

I can't say enough how excited I am for this drama, though I am a little wary of the medical aspect of the storyline. I hope overall there is very little focus on medicine and science. As much as I love 'I Hear Your Voice,' I think we can all agree that the show is much better when it focuses on the relationships between its characters and not the law. I'm hoping this show will be more like 'Grey's Anatomy' than, say, 'House.'

So, wary I may be, but the excellent cast gives me very high hopes.

i laugh at greys anatomy ( house is good though ) but it is alot more addicting to watch due to its face-paced story with fully fleshed out characters that are like family.
It's my guilty pleasure.

I definitely agree that it should include SOME law (she is a lawyer after all!). I just think the show is better when it focuses on how those cases shape Hye-sung as a person and influence her relationships with others, as opposed to other shows, like Law and Order, in which I care far more about the individual cases and less about the characters working them. I want this show to be first and foremost about the characters, not the medical anomalies and emergencies they encounter as doctors.

But I totally agree with you about the importance of incorporating law into IHYV--that, as well as Soo-ha's mind reading abilities, helps to make it a unique romantic comedy. I'm relatively new to Korean dramas, but it is certainly my first legal drama.

I will give this drama a try because of Joo Won and Joo Sang Wook and I hope I will like Moon Chae Won here.

Only watch her in The Princess's Man, not yet watch Nice Guy.

The story sounds different from the rest of the K-drama out there, I will give it a try. I must.

Thanks in advance to JB and GF or anyone in DB who decide to recap this drama.

Looking forward to this drama. I'm really liking this cast.

Yumm-mee, missed my General Wolya. Loved him in "Giant" and "Ten". I'm not sure I like his character here but I'm glad to see him with MCW in a drama. I might check this out for them but I'm looking forward more to Lee Jun-ki's "Two Weeks".

I'm not a fan of Joo Won but I feel like the success of this show will have a lot to do with him and the writer. So fighting Joo Won.

OPPA!

As Joo Won will be playing an autistic savant person, I'm guessing that he will not be having a brooding moment with Joo Sang-wook in this drama.

Joo Sang-wook will probably have this conflict with two badass actor Kwak Do-won and Jeong Man-shik. Really like the supporting actors in this drama. I also can see the dynamic between him and the two ladies, Moon Chae-won and Kim Min-seo.

I hope it will be a good show to watch.

Good Doctor fighting!

I like Joo Sang-wook I really do but, "He’s the tough, arrogant, challenging teacher who’s also the No.1 skilled surgeon in the hospital. He’s described as enterprising and responsible, with the charisma of the devil — basically, don’t cross him", sounds like every character I've ever seen him play.

She's just SO PRETTY, I cannot get over her face, it's like a real live doll. And suit = instant wardrobe love.

I have no idea what this drama is going to be like, but so far every drama I've loved this year has been something that wasn't even on my radar before airing (and the ones which were, flopped big-time) so I'll keep an open mind.

She is very pretty, and in an understated appealing classy way. It's hard to not to look at her, she definitely captures your attention.

I've assumed she's had work done-it's hard not to assume such with the culture and being an actress, but she does not look like it.

Whoa... This article reminds me of his previous ten and ten 2.... I really really miss that show....:( I'm a sucker for crime genre shows.. But I liked ten better than even the CSI and NCIS.. Even though there were plot holes and logic gapes, the execution was pure GOLD. And I loved all the members of the team. I wish they would do a season 3.. (with the exact same cast.) Can anyone suggest me any shows like Ten?:D

there's something about moon chae won that is so friggin likeable.
She's not the greatest actress of her generation but so far i just really enjoyed all the characters she takes on -- the gal knows how to choose her projects. Her face is unique and her voice is recognizable -- really soft/soothing, even if she's shouting. Safe to say i got a girl crush on her.
Let's hope this one doesn't let us down. She does sound like a nicer eun-gi, and i really liked bitchy eun-gi, amnesiac eun-gi not as much.
Joo sang wook is looking deliciously dapper in that suit! If this show isn't cut out to being a solid show, i'd watch for the pretty that is all our leads.

As much as I like MCW and JW, I don't know whether I will embark on the journey of yet another medical dramas. I guess the principle of not watching or emotionally investing in a drama depicting your profession really holds true - I will probably spend more time analyzing the medical flaws than enjoying the characters, etc. I hope it will make me pleasantly surprised.
