JTBC’s “Doctor Slump” has shared a sneak peek of Park Hyung Sik and Park Hyung Sik’s struggles from its upcoming episode!
“Doctor Slump” is a romantic comedy about two former rivals who reunite and unexpectedly become each other’s light during the darkest period of their lives. Park Hyung Sik plays Yeo Jung Woo, a star plastic surgeon whose thriving career suddenly falls into danger due to a strange medical accident, while Park Shin Hye plays Nam Ha Neul, a workaholic anesthesiologist suffering from burnout syndrome.
Previously on “Doctor Slump,” Nam Ha Neul and Yeo Jung Woo briefly got together and began an adorable romance. However, at the end of the latest episode, they broke viewers’ hearts by going their separate ways.
In newly released stills from the drama’s next episode, both doctors suffer the fallout of their breakup—and for the first time since their reunion, they suffer on their own, instead of together.
First, Yeo Jung Woo returns to the operating room for the first time in a long while. After struggling with PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) due to his patient’s death and the trauma of being framed for it, Yeo Jung Woo is clearly battling his nerves as he finds himself back in front of the operating table.
Meanwhile, Nam Ha Neul can be seen wide awake at night, unable to fall asleep—possibly due to missing Yeo Jung Woo after their split. As she lies in bed while miserably looking at her phone, it’s clear that despite being the one to end things with Yeo Jung Woo, the breakup hasn’t been easy for her.
In the next set of photos, Nam Ha Neul appears to be going on a blind date with a mystery man in order to move on. However, the frosty vibe of the date seems to indicate that neither of them is even remotely interested in the other.
To find out what happens to Nam Ha Neul and Yeo Jung Woo after their breakup—and whether they’ll find their way back to one another—catch the next episode of “Doctor Slump” on February 24 at 10:30 p.m. KST!
