In the episode of 15 March by Knowing Bros of JTBC, the Woo Chang-Yoon, the EN-YOON specialist specialist and “The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call” Lee Nak-Joon and the psychiatrist Oh Jin-Seung appeared as guests.
During the show, the hosts and the three doctors discussed the accuracy of medical dramas. At a certain point, the hosts mentioned, “It was fantastic that the trauma code: Heroes on call had no romanticism.”
Lee Nak-Joon explained, “The reason why there is no romanticism is simple: I just can’t write romantic stories. That’s why I didn’t include anyone in the trauma code: Heroes on call. “
Woo Chang-Yoon then raised the almost supernatural skills of the protagonist of the drama, Baek Kang-Hyuk (played by Joo Ji-Hoon). In response, Lee Nak-Joon admitted: “I never intend to make the drama from a medical point of view”, making everyone laugh.
SEO Jang-Hoon commented, “The drama satisfies the desire of the public to see patients recover completely”, to which Lee Nak-Joon agreed, saying, “As I wrote, I kept thinking, it would be nice if someone like Baek Kang-Hyuk actually existed.”
He also explained why Baek Kang-Hyuk was played as a cold and detached character“A genius cannot have both incredible skills and a perfect personality”.
