Actor Choo Young Woo is proving his versatility with two back-to-back successes, stunning fans with his acting transformation from the dual-role hero in JTBC’s The Tale of Lady Ok to an elite medical fellow in Netflix’s The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call.

In The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call, which premiered on January 24, Choo Young Woo plays Yang Jae Won, a brilliant medical fellow who graduated at the top of his class from Korea University’s medical school.

His character is captivated by the surgical genius of Baek Kang Hyuk, played by Joo Ji Hoon. As the two work to save trauma patients during the critical "golden hour", a touching mentor-student bromance develops, adding emotional depth to the series.

Choo Young Woo fully committed to his role as Yang Jae Won, showcasing a completely different side of himself compared to his previous works.

From adjusting his hairstyle to adopting awkward mannerisms, he perfectly portrayed the clumsy but determined fellow.

His character’s ultimate goal is to become someone who can independently save lives, and his heartfelt dedication to his patients shines through every scene.

This transformation comes right after the success of The Tale of Lady Ok, where Choo wowed viewers with his dual roles in the historical drama, which wrapped up on January 26.

The stark contrast between the two roles highlights Choo’s incredible range as an actor, earning him praise from fans and critics alike.

Viewers are also drawn to Yang Jae Won’s growth journey in The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call. Starting as a rookie nicknamed “Anal” (a joke among the team) for his meticulous nature, Yang eventually becomes Baek Kang Hyuk’s trusted disciple, earning the title of “#1 Disciple.”

His character’s dedication to saving lives and his struggle to balance Baek’s criticism with his compassion for patients are key highlights of the drama.

Meanwhile, The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call is gaining momentum both in Korea and abroad, with its gripping storyline about a genius trauma surgeon who rebuilds a struggling trauma team after returning from the battlefield. Fans are praising the show for its intense medical scenes and strong character dynamics.

Choo Young Woo’s rise as a versatile actor is undeniable, and fans can’t wait to see what he’ll take on next!
