Genie TV original drama 'Love Doctor' (script) scheduled to be released in 2026 Min Hyo-jeong ·Directed by Ahn Pan-seok) tells the story of Park Min-jae (played by Choo Young-woo), a doctoral student who was a competitive swimmer in high school but lost one of his legs due to illness, and Im Yu-jin (played by Kim So-hyun), a master's student who lost her path and wanders, then embarks on a new path. The spicy and sweet romance that blossoms in a robotics lab, as well as the colorful daily lives of graduate students we never knew about, are expected to bring warm laughter and excitement.

Above all, anticipation is high as this is the new work of director Ahn Pan-seok, who has created many memorable melodramas such as "Graduation," "Something in the Rain," "One Spring Night," and "Secret Love Affair." Viewers are eagerly awaiting to see what realistic romance director Ahn Pan-seok, known for his meticulous portrayal of emotions, will bring to captivate viewers. Furthermore, the fact that writer Min Hyo-jung, beloved for works such as "Rooftop Cat" and "Full House," will be penning the film further adds to the anticipation.

The meeting between actors Choo Young-woo and Kim So-hyun is also drawing attention. Choo Young-woo delivers a passionate performance as Park Min-jae, a man who lost his right leg and gave up his dream of becoming a competitive swimmer. Park Min-jae, a doctoral student who found a new life in robotics engineering after losing his lost dream, is a slow-witted but diligent researcher. His awkwardness with expressing his emotions changes when he meets the powerful and driven Eugene.

Expectations are high for how Choo Young-woo, who has achieved success with consecutive hits such as 'The Fairy and the Cowherd,' 'Trauma Center,' and 'The Tale of Lady Ok,' will construct the emotional circuit of Park Min-jae, a doctoral student in robotics engineering. Choo Young-woo said, "I am so happy to be able to participate in the work of respected director Ahn Pan-seok. I am preparing hard to approach this work from a more academic perspective." He also expressed his extraordinary determination, saying, "I will go meet Min-jae with a happy heart as I am working with a good script, great actors, and a great staff. Please look forward to it."

Kim So-hyun transforms into Lim Yu-jin, a clothing and textiles major who struggles with career uncertainty as she approaches graduation. Stigmatized as a "troublemaker" for publicizing an unfair incident within the department, her path to graduate school blocked. However, upon meeting Min-jae, she discovers a new world: robotics. Yu-jin, relentlessly persevering in this unfamiliar environment, grows stronger than anyone else. Unstoppable in both her robotics research and her unwavering pursuit of Min-jae, viewers are eager to see whether she can melt Park Min-jae's seemingly unlovable heart.

Kim So-hyun, who has showcased her diverse charms in each of her works, including "Good Boy" and "Useless Lies," is expected to once again set a new record for her life character with this realistic romance. Kim So-hyun said, "Just meeting director Ahn Pan-seok is truly an honor and I am very excited. Also, the bold charm of Eugene in 'Love Doctor' drew me in," and raised expectations by saying, "I will do my best to show my best image and acting through this work."

Meanwhile, Genie TV's original drama 'Love Doctor' will air as a Monday-Tuesday drama on the ENA channel in 2026 and will be exclusively released as a free VOD on KT Genie TV.
