Park Shin-hye, Kim Rae-won smile for the cameras on set of Doctors
by girlfriday
Aw, they kind of look cute together. I mean, he looks very much like her older wiser sunbae, but that’s the dynamic in the drama, right? Maybe it’s just that Kim Rae-won (Punch) is permanently seared into my brain as the perfect oppa-next-door type, so I’ll always see him as that. Here’s a peek at Park Shin-hye and Kim Rae-won together for the first time on the set of their new SBS drama Doctors, a coming-of-age story about a rebellious heroine who overcomes her gangster background and becomes a doctor.
The 20-episode Monday-Tuesday drama stars Park Shin-hye as a prickly heroine who has a hard time trusting people. She spent her youth as a gangster but turned her life around and became a doctor, and Kim Rae-won will be a mentor to her at the hospital. He’s a patient, caring doctor who quietly endures a painful past and always fights for what’s right. With his encouragement, she’ll become a better doctor and start letting people get close to her, and they’ll fall in love.
Lee Sung-kyung (Cheese in the Trap) co-stars as Park Shin-hye’s rival since high school, and Yoon Kyun-sang (Six Flying Dragons) is a chaebol heir who wants to be a doctor instead of inheriting the family company. I’m looking forward to the Pinocchio reunion, even though they really didn’t share much screen time in that drama except when he was being scary and threatening, which will make it a fun reversal when he becomes the pining second lead.
The drama sounds like familiar territory, but I’m encouraged by the description of the sassy heroine. I’m hoping for something upbeat and character-driven rather than another medical procedural, so fingers crossed!
Doctors follows Jackpot and premieres June 20.

Huh? How come he looks younger in this photo then any other shot coming out the last few years?
Is that PSH? Have I ever seen a photo where she smiles that widely?
Can't even recognise both of them. The plot actually sounds watchable now. After all the initial articles about it.

She is always cheery and mood-maker on set behind the scene but non- fans usually don't see or known.
He does look younger next to her

Thank you for pointing this out! I'm always sad for PSH because a lot of people judge her for her weak and boring candy characters but PSH the person isn't like that at all. If you watched the episode when she appeared on Strong Heart you'll see that she's super outgoing, super chill, athletic and a tomboy ish. She's good at pretty much all sports including fencing and fishing. In reality PSH is probably more coordinated than most the male leads she's paired with lol so she probably would never need someone to catch her when she falls or flail awkwardly into an awkward kiss like Go Mi Nam.

Yes, it's sad how people assuming she is like her role when she is actually the opposite.
The girl can kick asses and boss people around (3MAD anyone?)
That's why I can't wait for people who doubting her eating their words

With that smile on her, PSH looks kinda dorky. Sweet, next door girl kind of dorky.
Have always loved her, and love her still! :-D
Looking forward to this.

All of these actors can play very intense (and perhaps for some, crazed) characters. I wonder how the dynamic will be among these four.

Huh. I'm quite surprised by how much I'm looking forward to this. I mean, they actually look really cute. The drama itself seems like it could go either way for me, depending on whether it goes more in the uplifting human story direction or...a more boring one.
I think I'm just really looking forward to Kim Rae-won in this kind of role (PSH too, for that matter).

They have both been around for so long, working constantly. I think we will get solid performances from them.
As far as chemistry, we will see. I hope the age difference doesn't stop the writers from making him smexy, cause he is.

That hearty smile.. Gosh..Park shin hye has the best smile ever.. Looking so happy and beautiful. And i have never seen kim rae won looking this young and handsome before.. He looks particularly younger than ever. That hairstyle suits him well. I am so looking forward for "Doctors". I really hope the writer does good this time. And also i wish SBS starts promoting this drama well. Park shin hye is doing a better job in promoting than them.

That's why this is the time for her to prove either she can convince viewers or not. Take a backseat and wait for the pilot ep. I bet you havent seen her in goong s and cyrano agency... nvm. after all she took this drama because of hye jung and want to take the challenge to potray hye jung. For the time being i'll just trusting her to take this drama even it doesnt seem like the type of drama tht bring hype and hit based on popularity of the costars (krw is sure a super bonus to be in this :) ), writer and even director (...doctors is his debut project as a main pd.. -_-) alone

I don't like Park Shin Hye (she has neither beauty nor talent). She managed to ruin every drama she starred in: she just opens and closes her mouth while frowning at the same time (I suppose she thinks that not being bland means one is a good actor). I've only watched her in You're Beautiful (2009), and since then I have consistently given up all her dramas.

May 30, 2016 at 5:39 AM
"she managed to ruin every drama she starred in..."
"I've only seen her in You're Beautiful..."
That makes perfect sense.
That's cool if you think she's not pretty or talented. You can continue to think that, and PSH will continue to be considered one of the top actresses in her age group by the Korean and Chinese drama markets, and every other niche international drama market as well. It's all good.

I was mildly interested in this drama before but seeing this picture makes me excited for it. I don't know what it is. They just look so cute!
I'm not a huge fan of Park Shinhye (I got nothing against her, just a bit indifferent to her acting) but I somehow saw 90% of her dramas... Might as well keep it up lol.
I never seen Kim Raewon before but I heard some good things so I am excited to discover another good actor!
No high expectations but I hope this drama is at least good and enjoyable!

I think the best way for a young actress to improve and hone her skills by leaps and bounds is to cast her with a veteran actor with already a stellar resume. I’m happy for PSH that she took up this project with Kim Rae Won. His experience and depth will definitely keep her on her toes and playing match up to his acting skills will be a good learning curve for her as well. P:S - I hated all her pre productions as well. Very annoying. But changed my opinion after Pinnochio. She did get better so I’m def watching this to see if she will be able to top her performance there.

OMG, YOU GUYS, THAT TEASER, THO... It looks so gooooood!! I always wanted Park Shin-hye to play a badass character and had hopes that she'd rock that type of role and that teaser just reassured me that she's totally gonna rock it! Can't wait to see more sassy, bright and smart Shin-hye on screen!
I'm totally satisfied and excited to see the rest of the cast, too! I completely forgot about Kim Rae-won's character description, thinking he'd play another cold hearted male lead, but I'm happy to see/read that he's the exact opposite. Nice! Also, I'm happy to see Lee Sung-kyung onscreen again (I've been jamming to Eddy Kim's song w/ her as a featured artist in it and her voice is lovely) but since her character is Park Shin-hye's rival, does this mean she's gonna be mean and nasty (again!)? I really hope not. And haha, it's definitely gonna be a treat to see Yoon Kyun-sang again and with heart in his eyes for Shin-hye, rather than hatred.
