Kim Ji-Won is cast for the lead role in SBS drama series “Doctor X.” As the title suggests, “Doctor X” is a remake of the TV Asahi drama series that first aired in 2012 with “Doctor-X” and stars Ryoko Yonekura. Also cast for the SBS drama series version are Lee Jung-Eun, Son Hyun-Joo, & Kim Woo-Seok. In “Doctor X,” Kim Ji-Won will play Kye Soo-Jeong. She is a freelance surgeon and highly skilled. She is also quite unorthodox and not afraid to clash with the status quo.
“Doctor X” will first air sometime next year in South Korea.
