On February 14, Lee Nak-Joon, the writer of the original web novel behind “The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call” by Netflix, published an emotional declaration on the “Doctor Friends” channel to clarify the problem.
Lee Nak-Joon began saying: “I was not sure I had to face this, but after seeing this type of comments for a month, I decided to speak.“
Previously, the videos on the “Doctor Friends” channel, which Lee Nak-Joon manages together with Woo Chang-Yoon and Oh Jin-Seung, had been flooded with unexpected comments such as, “I heard that two of you are Chinese abroad, is it true?” AND “Was this “Chinese friends abroad” always?“
As for this, Lee Nak-Joon has firmly declared, “We are not Chinese abroad. All three we were military doctors. As South Korean citizens, we have fulfilled our national defense duties. “He also explained,”Jin-Seung and I served the Aerospace Medical Center, while Woo Chang-Yoon served in the seventh army division. “
Lee Nak-Joon also underlined the deep Korean roots of his family, “Both my paternal and maternal grandparents were veterans of the Korean war. My paternal grandfather was a soldier student and my maternal grandfather was an artillery officer who fought next to the American army against the North Korean and Chinese communist forces on the front line during the retreat of January 4th. “
Expressing his frustration, he added, “I have no idea where these rumors come from, and even as I write this, I still don’t understand what kind of suspicion they target me. “
Meanwhile, “The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call”, with Ju Ji-Hoon and Choo Young-Woo, is based on the web novel “Trauma Center: Golden Hour” written by the ENRE Lee Nak-Joon specialist (Penna name Hansanleega).
Released on January 24, the drama quickly gained popularity, ranking n. 3 globally in the Netflix non -English TV category in just three days and exceeding Netflix’s global graphics within two weeks. This success also attracted significant attention to Lee Nak-Joon as an original author.
Following the overwhelming response, Lee Nak-Joon appeared on Ytn News FM “Wise Radio Life” on January 31 to share further insights at work.
