Already a medical drama Good Doctor is on its way to premiere in a week or so and we have another drama on doctors in its initial stages. Kwon Sang Woo and Jung Ryu Won will play the lead roles in this new drama titled Medical Top Team. Well, this one joins the category of shows where the “title says it all”. Yes, the show will be about a team of top doctors in a hospital and their power struggle. This definitely sounds BORING. But I like Jung Ryu Won a lot and that love has increased with her last drama King Of Dramas, where she was delightful. She can convince me to watch this show which looks like it will have all the run-of-the-mill tropes. Kwon Sang Woo was last seen in Queen Of Ambition in the early months of 2013 and I have seen him in only a movie My Tutor Friend in my initial days of K entertainment and I don’t remember much except that I found him cute. Anyways, the drama has also cast Oh Yeon Seo of Oh Ja Ryung Is Coming fame.
Kwon Sang Woo will play a confident surgeon who is cold on the outside and warm on the inside. Jung Ryu Won will be a strong thoracic surgeon with a warm heart, while Oh Yeo Seo will also play a thoracic surgeon but only with two years experience. Hm, the drama has also been offered to Joo Ji Hoon (Goong) who is considering it right now. If he joins, I’m definitely giving this a try, and it’s sad that his comeback show Five Fingers was a makjang fest. The female lead role was initially offered to Lee Min Jung who finally turned it down. On a side note, Kwon Sang Woo and Jung Ryu Won will reunite in this drama as they did a movie together called Pain in 2011.
Medical Top Team is being penned by the writer of another medical show Brain and the director is the PD who did highly rated sageuk The Moon That Embraces The Sun. It is set to start airing after Two Weeks wraps up on MBC, which is sometime in October.




Found out that Jung Ryu Won was going to play in this drama yesterday and I was so looking forward to the drama, now that Kwon Sang Woo is also joining, my excitement is double XD I’m a little iffy about Oh Yeon Seo to be honest, but Jung Ryu Won, Kwon Sang Woo and Joo Ji Hoon (if he accepts) are making it up for me ^ ^
same here…..I’m not interested in the plot as such but the actors are definitely making me excited for this one….I haven’t seen any of Oh Yeon Seo shows, so can’t say anything about her but the rest of them are great!! 🙂
When I heard Jung Ryu Won is casted for this drama, words can’t describe how happy I was. After watching her in King of Dramas and The History of the Salaryman, I vouch to never put her out of my sight ever. Ryu Won is one talented actress IMO. I love her personality and she has that spunk that not many actresses have. I can’t wait 😁 and I’m giddy about the whole premise.
I didn’t have any special liking for her when I watched MNIKSS….but after watching King Of Dramas, I have become so fond of her….she is lovely 🙂
