Why Is the Next Season Stopped?
The story of Resident Playbook is based on the real healthcare crisis that hit South Korea in 2024.
It focuses on the resident doctors of the Yulje Medical Center’s Jongno branch, especially gynecology specialists, as they face challenging situations.
The drama combines comedy with serious real-life issues, making it unique and emotional. However, due to the sensitive nature of the healthcare crisis it portrays, the production team has decided to pause any future development for now.
