{NEWS} โโDoctor Xโ: Kim Ji Won, the Birth of a Charismatic Heroine with Maxed-Out Skillsโฆ Makes a Powerful Impression from the Very First Episode!โ
1. Kim Ji-won brings Gye Su-jeong to life with a cold gaze and a deep, low-pitched voice.
2. Kim Ji-won takes on a character with a completely different feel from Queen of Tearsโฆ Expanding her acting range with an even wider variety of performances.
3. Kim Ji-won's genius surgeon declares, โI never failโโฆ Capturing viewers' attention!
Actress Kim Ji-won has revealed a new side of herself, portraying a charismatic heroine with exceptional skills.
Kim Ji-won plays Gye Su-jeong, a genius surgeon who knows neither failure nor compromise, in SBS's new FridayโSaturday drama Doctor X: The Age of the White Mafia. She made a powerful impression from the very first episode.
The episode depicted Gye Su-jeong confronting the corrupt leadership and unjust systems within Guseo University Hospital. On her first day at the hospital, she challenged director Kim Myung-seop (played by Kim Jong-gu), who stubbornly insisted on using a surgical method unsuitable for the patient. She also delivered sharp criticism to doctors who sided with the director to advance their careers, clearly expressing her own convictions.
Even when Kim Myung-seop suddenly collapsed during surgery, leaving a patient with their abdomen open in a critical situation, Gye Su-jeong remained composed. Entering an operating room thrown into chaos, she completed the surgery with quick judgment and precise hand movements, immediately demonstrating the abilities of a genius surgeon and radiating a powerful presence.
Gye Su-jeong's uncompromising actions did not stop there. She pushed VIP chairman Park Gwang-cheol (played by Kim Gi-cheon), who took preferential treatment and special privileges for granted, out of his wheelchair and seated Joo-hee (played by Yuna), the patient she had carried on her back to the hospital.
She then successfully performed a series of difficult operations, unapologetically demonstrating her character's principles and confidence as a doctor who puts patients first.
Kim Ji-won portrayed these qualities through a restrained acting style. Her low, firm voice and cool, penetrating gaze gave the character a sense of gravity. During the surgical scenes, she conveyed Gye Su-jeong's quick judgment and concentration through subtle facial expressions and precise movements of her hands, convincingly portraying a doctor who proves her abilities through results rather than words.
In particular, Kim naturally embraced a character with a completely different temperament from her glamorous and sophisticated image in her previous drama, Queen of Tears. Gye Su-jeong is detached, direct, and unapologetically straightforward, allowing Kim to demonstrate a fresh variation in her acting.
Beyond the character's outward charisma, Kim also captured the confidence that comes from her own standards and exceptional abilities. As she continues to shape her own distinctive interpretation of Gye Su-jeong, she keeps viewers glued to the screen.
Having delivered an exceptionally satisfying performance as a charismatic heroine from the very first episode, Kim Ji-won has raised expectations for how Gye Su-jeong's story will develop as she continues to confront the injustices within Guseo University Hospital.
Meanwhile, SBS's FridayโSaturday drama Doctor X: Mafia in White airs every Friday and Saturday at 9:50 p.m. Korean time.

[1013] Kang Ilhong's Entertainment Today: โYou reap what you sow.โ #KimSoohyunโs Comeback vs. Kim Seuiโs 6,600 Won a Day
Life is truly unpredictable. Someone can be falsely accused and suffer because of another personโs malicious attacks, only for the truth to come to light at some point and open up a new opportunity to turn things around.
Actor Kim Soohyun, who once put his career on hold amid intense controversy, is making his return.
He met countless fans in the Philippines and received an enthusiastic welcome, wearing a bright smile and looking softer than before. Many fans commented that his fuller cheeks also gave him a playful, boyish charm.
On top of that, he took first place in the male actor category of Star Ranking. Of course, fan votes do not mean that every controversy has been resolved. However, it seems clear that the support of fans who have waited for him for a long time remains strong.
Meanwhile, Kim Seui, head of the YouTube channel Garo Sero Research Institute, who was indicted and detained on charges including defaming Kim Soohyun, is finding himself in an increasingly difficult position.
According to related reports, the court approved an attachment order worth 100 million won against Kim Seuiโs claim to money deposited in his detention account. However, to ensure he has the bare minimum to live on, 200,000 won per month was excluded from the seizure. That works out to approximately 6,600 won a day.
Kim Seui is currently being held as a pretrial detainee, and no sentence has been finalized yet. Nevertheless, this case raises a serious question for all of us: What responsibility comes with words that damage another personโs reputation?
A single statement made on YouTube can spread to countless people in an instant. However, a damaged reputation and the pain of someone who has been hurt are not easily repaired. Even words spoken to gain views and attention cannot be taken lightly if they lead to legal responsibility.
Of course, Kim Soohyunโs return does not mean that every controversy has come to an end, nor does Kim Seuiโs current situation mean that all legal judgments have been finalized. Ultimately, what matters is not public opinion, but verified facts, legal procedures, and the responsibility each person must bear.
There is a saying that everything in life comes back to you in proportion to what you have done. If you hurt others, you may have to face responsibility for that pain. If you quietly endure difficult times, you may also get another chance.
Karma is not simply about taking pleasure in someone elseโs misfortune. It means that every action comes with responsibility. There is just one thing we should remember today.
Taking action to protect the truth matters more than saying things intended to bring others down, and acting responsibly lasts longer than pursuing short-term gains. In the end, people must face the consequences of the seeds they have sown.

๐ The truth deserves to be heard. Dispatch reports that the 2016 KakaoTalk messages were attributed to Celebrity A, not Kim Soo-hyun. After everything he endured, facts prevail over rumors. We stand by Soohyun. ๐ซถ
