Breaking Down the Emotional Ending of Resident Playbook

Resident Playbook, the Netflix spin-off of beloved K-drama Hospital Playlist, has wrapped its first season. The slice-of-life medical series is set in the understaffed obstetric and gynecology department at the Seoul Jongno branch of the fictional Yulje Medical Center, and follows four first-year OB-GYN residents as they fail, learn, and grow.

The series stars Alchemy of Soul’s Go Youn-jung as Oh Yi-young, a junior doctor who only takes a job at Yulje to pay off her crippling credit card debt. Yi-young secures the job despite getting fired from her previous position because the OB-GYN department is so desperate for new recruits. She is joined by three other junior doctors: the high-strung, status-conscious Pyo Nam-kyung (The Witch Part 2’s Shin Shi-ah); warm-hearted former K-pop idol Um Jae-il (When Life Gives You Tangerine’s Kang Yoo-seok); and emotionally distant top student Kim Sa-bi (Han Ye-ji, in her debut role).
