[KBCs My Doctor Production Press Conference Interview!]
[My Doctor, first broadcast on Wednesday at 10 p.m.!]
-Only one day left!
-Only 10 hours left, but ti is not passing. It feels longer than two months.
-Off work! Only 3 hours left!
-I still have an hour left, but I turned on KBC I havent watched the 9 oclock news in a long ti.
***
The actors and staff gathered at the barbecue restaurant they had reserved while waiting for the first broadcast of My Doctor. The appointed ti was 9 oclock, but they had already taken their seats and the grill was full of at.
It was a good idea to book from 8 oclock. Why did you co so early?
Well, we knew that Writer So would book early. We only see each other once or twice a day, right?
The cara director said, and Writer So Eun-jin laughed and looked around the noisy restaurant. Everyone had a bright smile on their face and a drink in their hand.
This is the first drama that I dont have to worry about the ratings.
They said the ads were sold out, too?
Yes. They sold out so much, so eat as much as you want!
They still had a lot of filming left, but they had two days off, so they all drank and ate heartily.
PD Choi Min-seong was at the broadcasting station to see if the first episode of My Doctor was broadcast properly.
Writer So said to eat comfortably, so everyone was really eating comfortably.
They said the ads were so competitive that they bought other ti slots, too. From what I heard, they were all huge companies, and the rerun ads would be no joke, either.
Of course, Lee Seo-jun! His first drama after a year of hiatus is our drama, so we cant miss it! By the way, did Seo-jun co today?
I dont know. Hes still in elentary school, right? Isnt it his bedti now?
Is it?
The staff looked disappointed, and the door of the restaurant opened. Writer So Eun-jin, who turned to see who had co, shouted.
Seo-jun is here! I didnt think he would co!
Hello! Writer-nim! I got permission from my mom and dad!
The staff who were busy grilling at greeted Seo-jun. Seo-jun also had an excited expression on his face as he greeted the staff. It was his first ti attending a dinner at such a late hour.
Just one day! He begged his parents to let him co in late for just one day, and Seo-eun-hye and Lee Min-joon smiled and agreed.
Hello! Ji-seok hyung, Do-hoon hyung, Jong-ho uncle!
The three people who were sitting at one table waved and welcod Seo-jun, then got up from their seats. Seo-jun tilted his head as he headed for that seat.
Seo-jun, lets sit over there.
Huh? Okay.
The three actors moved to a new table. There were plates and side dishes already prepared on the table.
What? Seo-jun blinked his eyes and sat next to Lee Ji-seok. Lee Ji-seok picked up a pair of tongs and put a juicy piece of beef on the hot grill.
Sizzle-
He heard the sound of the at cooking and wondered what the difference was between this table and the previous one. Seo-jun asked Lee Ji-seok, who was deep in thought.
Hyung. Why are we sitting here?
Oh, that side is for the people who drink alcohol.
Park Do-hoon said, and Seo-jun looked again and saw that the tables were divided in half, and the other side was full of bottles of alcohol. The table where the three actors were sitting also had bottles of soju and beer. This side only had bottles of soft drinks.
People who have work tomorrow or dont drink alcohol can eat here. If you dont want to drink on that side, you can co here, too.
Seo-jun was a child, so he moved to this side. He heard that Jong-ho uncle really liked alcohol, was he okay?
I see. But hyungs and uncle dont have to drink?
We ca early and drank. Its the first broadcast, so we have to watch it with Seo-jun with a clear mind. When Seo-jun goes ho, we can drink then.
Ugh. Uncle, are you going to drink more?
Seo-jun, lets eat at. Jong-ho hyung grills it really well!
Lee Ji-seok handed the tongs to Kim Jong-ho. Kim Jong-ho flipped the at without paying attention to Park Do-hoon, who was looking at him with a sour expression. The cooked beef looked very delicious.
Do you always have to make hyung do it?
Didnt you say that Seo-jun loves beef? You said you would grill it for him until his stomach burst if you ever t him?
I know. I know!
He said that, but Kim Jong-ho grilled the at for Seo-jun with great care. He only ate a little for dinner to prepare for the dinner. He also had [Precedence] Slis Digestive Ability! Seo-jun picked up a piece of deliciously grilled at with his chopsticks.
They must have sold a lot of ads. Eating beef for a dinner.
They said that other broadcasting stations scheduled low-budget dramas because they promoted it in advance. Its obvious that the viewers will flock to our drama. Look over there. Theyve been showing ads non-stop.
Kim Jong-ho said, and Seo-jun, who had filled his stomach, looked at the television in the restaurant.
The restaurant they had carefully chosen seed to have a large television that could be seen from most tables.
As Kim Jong-ho said, the ads went on for a long ti.
The internet is going crazy, too. Why are there so many ads?
Its a historical drama, so they cant do PPL, so they should at least watch the ads.
It feels like theyve gathered all the top 10 companies in the ad rankings, doesnt it?
Yeah.
The long and lavish feast of ads, but there was an end to it. The noisy restaurant quieted down as the OST of My Doctor played.
Boom-boom- The heavy sound of drums was heard, and Seo-jin hyungs voice was heard.
Good music!
Good screen!
Lee Ji-seoks face, Kim Jong-ho, and Lee Ji-hyes face passed by. Park Do-hoon and other actors faces, too.
It was amazing to see familiar faces on television. It was a different feeling from movies. It was different from Reinvestigation, which he watched when he only knew Lee Ji-seok.
Seo-juns face doesnt appear in the opening, either.
Theyll put it in after he appears in the drama.
Its going to be a riot again.
There was nothing special about the first episode. They had seen it all while filming, so they didnt pay much attention and drank and ate. Writer So Eun-jin was so nervous at the broadcasting station, and PD Choi Min-seong worked hard to edit it, so they wanted them to watch it a little.
Oh, well. I dont know.
Haha. Writer So, please understand. Were watching it well!
Lee Ji-seok said with a laugh. The people who were drowsy ate moderately and looked at the television.
Honestly, you cant eat comfortably on the first broadcast because youre worried about the ratings. Where else can you find such a comfortable first broadcast dinner?
The art team staff said, and everyone nodded. As the staff said, no one was worried about the ratings. Even if it didnt do well now, it was obvious that it would skyrocket from the place where Lee Seo-jun appeared.
Its all thanks to Seo-jun!
Right! Seo-jun, drink more soft drinks Youre watching the drama.
He wasnt noisy, and Seo-juns eyes were fixed on the television. Everyone quieted down at his focused expression.
Didnt you watch the filming scenes before? You must have read the script, too
It must feel different from that. Besides, Seong-nyeong Daegun doesnt appear until the fourth episode, so Seo-jun didnt see what he fild. He only saw the large-scale shootings like the coronation ceremony and the funeral.
I see.
Everyone nodded at Lee Ji-seoks explanation. Ahn Da Ho, who had to abstain from drinking because of driving, was sitting at the managers table and suddenly looked at Seo-jun, who had quieted down.
Oh dear. Everyone was keeping their mouths shut out of consideration for Seo-jun, who was engrossed in the drama. Ahn Da Ho took out his earphones and phone from his bag and headed towards Seo-jun.
Seo-jun, listen to this.
Okay!
He felt sorry already, but it worked out well. Seo-jun put on the earphones that Ahn Da Ho gave him with a bright face and looked at the big television screen in the store.
The sound and the screen were not in sync, but it was not too uncomfortable.
Its better than the phone screen.
Ahn Da Ho moved Seo-jun, who was wearing earphones, to another table so that he would not be disturbed.
Seo-jun sat right in the middle of the people who were drinking and those who were not. The staff, who could finally open their mouths a little more comfortably, smiled without realizing it.
Ah, isnt Seo-jun so cute?
Manager, can I take a picture of Seo-jun and post it on SNS?
Yes. Its okay because I already posted that hes participating in the dinner.
At that, everyone took out their phones and took pictures of Seo-jun. The picture of Seo-jun, who was imrsed in the drama like a cat looking at an aquarium, was uploaded on SNS.

#MyPhysicianEpisode1 #LeeSeoJun #MyPhysicianDinner
Seo-jun must be watching The Royal Physician at the dinner place.
Really?
Seo Eun-hye showed the phone picture to Lee Min-joon. Seo-juns side profile, looking at the television, was captured.
Even through the picture, one could tell how focused he was on watching the drama.
His eyes are sparkling.
Right?
It was not because of the reflection of the light. Seo-jun always had a happy face when he was acting and when he was watching a work. His black pupils sparkled like stars and his soft cheeks turned red. He smiled happily as if he had everything in the world.
I feel like I did a really good job of supporting him when he makes that face.
I was a bit disappointed that I didnt see that face for a year.
Yeah. too.
Seo-jun was not particularly unhappy or unhappy during the year of rest, but he looked the happiest when he was acting.
Ah, we should watch the drama too. So we can talk to Seo-jun tomorrow.
It must have passed a lot by now.
The couple sat on the sofa and turned on the television.
The Royal Physician Episode 1 was the story of Heo Dae-gams son, Heo Yu-seon.
Heo Yu-seon introduced his childhood with a cold and ruthless monologue.
Heo Yu-seon, who was kicked out of Heo Dae-gams house, learned dicine from the village physician. Heo Yu-seon filled his shortcomings with books and improved his skills, and made a living by receiving dical fees from people.
Did the princess mama pass away?
Yes. Thats why all the physicians in The Royal Physician were kicked out!
That conversation lit a fire in Heo Yu-seons heart. If he beca a physician, he could get revenge on Heo Dae-gam and his wife, who killed his mother.
There were many ways. He could also reveal his dark past to the king when he beca a physician and received the kings trust, and get him punished.
I could also poison the kings dicine and pin the treason charge on Heo Dae-gam.
Heo Yu-seon, who was willing to give up his life for revenge, had a cold gaze that reached the palace.
The screen stopped and the The Royal Physician OST played. Seo-jun, who was listening to Seo-jins voice, took off his earphones.
It was fun. It was fun to read the script, but it was more vivid and better to watch it on the screen.
Ah. When will I appear? I really want to see it!
His heart was pounding for so reason. PD Choi said that Seong-nyeong Daegun would appear in episode 5. They would air episodes 1 and 2 this week and episodes 3 and 4 next week, so there were still two weeks left. Ah, how can I wait! He felt like he knew how the fans felt.
Seo-jun smiled brightly and looked around the table where Lee Ji-seok was.
Ji-seok hyung, your acting was aweso!
Seo-jun, shh!
Huh? Seo-juns eyes widened.
He was so excited after watching The Royal Physician that he didnt pay attention, but the store was quiet. The people who were drinking and laughing happily, and the people who were filling their stomachs with expensive beef, were all looking at one place.
Yes. Yes.
It was So Eun-jin, the writer, who had been holding her phone since before The Royal Physician ended. Seo-jun tilted his head and looked at So Eun-jin.
What? He couldnt figure out why, and Seo-jun blinked his eyes.
Yes?!
Wow!
A voice ca from sowhere. No matter how you look at it, that Yes?! was a Yes?! of joy and astonishnt! Soone, with years of experience, raised a toast first.
Writer So! So how much is it?!
So Eun-jin, who was talking to PD Choi Min-sung at the broadcasting station, shouted. She was surprised even as she spoke. Her mouth was wide open.
21%! 21%! The highest rating was 22.3%!
Woah!
The adults, who jumped up and cheered, made Seo-jun realize why. It was because of the ratings!
Our Seo-jun is the best!
Hahaha. 21% on the first episode, I never expected that!
Surrounded by laughter and cheers, Seo-jun also beca happy, and smiled broadly and raised a cup of soda.
21%!
The amazing record made cheers erupt everywhere.

[21% from the first episode! Is it the power of actor Lee Seo-jun?]
[Is there a fusion historical drama craze? The Royal Physician ratings first!]

-Oh my! The first episode rating is 21%? How many people are watching it again?
-The Wednesday 10 p.m. drama ratings are about 34 combined, 21 lol
-If the first episode is like this, it will be no joke from the episode where Lee Seo-jun appears!

[He still didnt appear this ti!]
[Seong-nyeong Daegun appears! A familiar face? Child actor, Park Do-hoon!]
-Ah! I dont know when hell appear, so I keep watching!
-But its still fun. Trying to assassinate the king by entering The Royal Physician lol

=Why? Theres a crown prince, right? Cant the crown prince handle the conspiracy?
=The crown prince is Yang-nyeong now. If Yang-nyeong becos king, Seong-nyeong Daegun cant be king. Theres no King Sejong. Thats not history distortion, its history destruction.
-Its Park Do-hoon. I enjoyed that drama.
-Now Im not worried about The Royal Physician ratings. Oh, no. Theres one thing. That thing.
=That thing lol You cant say that, right?
=But its amazing that I can understand what you an by that thing lol
