Explore more discussions and possibilities of this series with us below.
Go Youn Jung New Drama, “Resident Playbook,” Release Date Removed
Approaching the bountiful Chuseok 2024, Korean drama fans must suffer from more terrible news instead. After all the hope and massive expectations, we may lose all the possible chances to see actress Go Youn Jung wearing her charismatic white robe in “Resident Playbook” new Korean drama.
On September 13, Korean media outlet Herald Economy reported that tvN has officially removed the release date of Go Youn Jung new Korean drama, “Resident Playbook.”
Previously, rumors of the “Resident Playbook” release date cancelation have been widely circulating among Korean drama enthusiasts. Yet, fans are still hoping that they would have the chance to see this highly-anticipated “Hospital Playlist” spin-off to actually see the day.
Unfortunately, the rumors have now escalated. And after failing to secure a release date this year, it is possible that the project will be scrapped even with massive expectations from fans.
Possible Cancelation Due to Prolonged Strike from Korean Medical Residents
According to Herald Economy, industry insiders reported that it is almost impossible for “Resident Playbook” to secure a release date in the future. Therefore, the cancelation of this project is almost final as of today.
“Resident Playbook” new Korean drama starring Go Youn Jung, was supposed to air as the weekend drama following the “Queen of Tears” finale. However, after the doctors’ strike controversies, the production company then delayed this “Hospital Playlist” spin-off to the second half of this year.
And yet, while it was expected to resolve soon, the medical strike in South Korea has reportedly intensified with the continuous mass resignation of medical residents. Therefore, in a situation where the civilians are suffering from their strike, “Resident Playbook,” new Korean drama starring Go Youn Jung, has been criticized for glorifying the doctors instead.
Therefore, industry insiders stated that it will be extremely difficult for this project to be broadcast in the future.
Finally, the release date cancelation of “Resident Playbook” is almost final. Not only that, but the production of medical dramas that focus on the good life of a doctor may have to be entirely abandoned if the strike continues. That is especially concerning when the South Korean government has officially started early admission to medical school.
Not only that, but “Resident Playbook” will also face huge penalties from Netflix. That is because the series was originally scheduled to broadcast on the platform. But now that the broadcast is canceled, Netflix will impose a penalty.
