New Doctor X photos released on September 29 show Kim Ji-won as Gye Su-jeong in surgery, in a white coat and away from work. The images put the surgeon’s clinical focus beside her more ordinary life outside the operating room.
What do the new Doctor X stills show?
One photo shows Su-jeong masked and working in blue scrubs. Another presents her in a white coat, while a third shows her in everyday clothes. These are advance character images, not a recap of an aired episode.
How did Kim Ji-won prepare for the surgeon role?
Kim Ji-won learned the movements needed for the surgery scenes from a medical adviser and practiced them before filming. Director Lee Jung-rim said the doctors advising the production applauded during the operating-room scenes. His comment describes the work on set; viewers will be able to judge the finished scenes when the series airs.
