Medical K-drama The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call with Joo Ji Hoon is a Surprise Hit Landing on #3 of the Netflix Global Non-English Shows List One Week After Release

K-actor Joo Ji Hoon went on a tear in 2024 with three released K-dramas in Blood Free and Light Shop both on Disney+, and Love Your Enemy which aired on tvN. He’s continuing his drama stream to start 2025 with the release of The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call exclusively on Netflix. It’s actually called Season 1 so I know what’s getting a Season 2 most likely lol, as this drama has been released and is being heralded as a much needed hit. The reviews from domestic K-viewers is very strong and positive and the viewership is also very promising, with the drama landing in the #3 spot of the Netflix global non-English shows list within a week. This is also good for the medical genre K-drama which has been persona non-grata in South Korea after the doctor’s strike earlier last year, which led to high profile Resident Playbook getting delayed from airing. If K-netizens are enjoy medical dramas again then I expect more to be produced and RP to likely airing in the first half of this year.

  • It's like Korean version of Dr. HOuse except this Dr. can run and does everything else. Very good and entertaining show with all characters flash out and even the one that seems to be an antagonist has a backgrounds story of their own. you want to cheer all of them on.
    I'm excited for season2.
