In 2023, it was reported that director Shin Won-ho has started working on a new project, a spin-off version of Hospital Playlist (2020–2021) and contacted several actors and held auditions in secret.[13] Later, it was denied that Shin's new work a neither prequel nor spin-off of Hospital Playlist as contrast from a media report.[14]

The series would be another collaboration of Shin and writer Lee Woo-jung, who produced the Reply series and Hospital Playlist series, directed by Lee Min-soo, and written by Kim Song-hee, an assistant writer of Reply 1988 and Hospital Playlist. Eggiscoming managed the production.[15]

In February 2024, many doctors, residents, and interns had resigned and suspended their studies as a protest to South Korean government proposal to increase medical school enrollment by 2,000 every year from 2025, setting the quota to 5,058.[25][26][27] Due to this medical strike, the series suffered from it. In addition, when the teaser video was uploaded, it was criticized while others expressed antipathy and sympathy from the initial anticipation of viewers and netizen.[28] tvN announced that depending on the situation the broadcast date could be delayed.[29] In March 2024, it was reported that the series was postponed to the second half of 2024, with exact date yet to be determined.[30] In September 2024, as the series has been delayed several times it was decided to be cancelled this year until further notice.[31]

Release

[edit]

Resident Playbook was aimed to air in March 2024.[24]

In January 2024, tvN revealed the series as part of its 2024 drama line-up.[15] The next month, tvN confirmed that it would air in the first half of 2024.[32] Due to the ongoing medical strike in South Korea, the series which was originally scheduled to air in May after Queen of Tears has been postponed indefinitely.[31] In addition, it was also supposed to stream on Netflix.[33]
