A crisis has come to the secret relationship between Go Youn-jung and Jung Jun-won.
The 11th episode of the tvN weekend drama 'Resident Playbook' aired on the 17th, where first-year residents uncover clues about the relationship between Oh Yi-young (Go Youn-jung) and Koo Do-won (Jung Jun-won), leading to a red alert for the couple Oh-goo (Oh Yi-young + Koo Do-won).
In response, the 11th episode recorded an average rating of 7.6% in the capital region households and a peak of 8.6%, securing the top spot among all channels at the same time, including terrestrial broadcasting. In the target demographic ratings for tvN, adults aged 20-49, it recorded an average of 4% and a peak of 4.5% in the capital region, and a national average of 3.6% with a peak of 4.2%, achieving the top spot among all channels at the same time (based on paid platforms including cable, IPTV, and satellite/ provided by Nielsen Korea).
Before starting their fellowship, Oh Yi-young followed Koo Do-won to a real estate office to look for a place, where she had a minor confrontation with Do Jae-hak (Jung Mun-sung), a fellow who listed a rental property. They finally enjoyed the long-awaited meal for just the two of them. However, their sweet date was interrupted when a sudden emergency patient appeared at the restaurant, prompting Oh Yi-young and Koo Do-won to immediately take action, which was captured on camera and spread to the community.
As if that weren't enough, Um Jae-il (Kang Yoo-seok) witnessed them on a date in the outpatient ward the previous night, casually throwing remarks hinting that he knows about their relationship, leaving Koo Do-won flustered. In addition, Kim Sa-bi (Han Ye-ji), who was collecting home addresses from residents to send wedding gifts for another teacher, realized that Oh Yi-young and Koo Do-won were living together.
Coincidentally, Pyun Nam-gyeong (Shin Si A), who had dinner with Oh Yi-young, her sister Oh Joo-young (Jung Un-sun), and her brother-in-law Koo Seung-won (Jung Sun-won), noticed the relationship among the four when she saw Koo Do-won calling Oh Joo-young 'sister-in-law' at the hospital. After seeing a video in the community showing Oh Yi-young and Koo Do-won at the restaurant together, the three combined their clues and concluded that Oh Yi-young and Koo Do-won were cohabitating as in-laws and were in a romantic relationship.
Unaware that Pyun Nam-gyeong, Um Jae-il, and Kim Sa-bi have caught wind of their relationship, Oh Yi-young entered the office with a calm expression, raising the tension. With sudden laser-like gazes from her peers, Oh Yi-young's face reflected anxiety, prompting curiosity about how she will navigate the crisis of their secret romance being exposed.
Meanwhile, the reason why Oh Yi-young had to leave the local hospital was revealed due to the new labor room nurse. It was disclosed that she had quit the hospital after witnessing a dermatologist's inappropriate behavior toward a nurse and punishing him. Oh Yi-young smiled in response to the nurse's words of gratitude for helping her, creating a warm atmosphere.
Additionally, Oh Yi-young completed another milestone by stepping into the role of attending physician since joining the obstetrics and gynecology department at Jongno Yulje Hospital. With the support of her senior resident Koo Do-won and Professor Seo Jeong-min (Lee Bong-ryeon), as well as the help of Professor Geum Sae-byeok (Park Ye-young), who is also a mother, Oh Yi-young successfully completed her first postpartum stitching with a steady heart. Attention is focused on Oh Yi-young's choice as it is said that there is a longstanding legend at the Jongno Yulje Hospital that obstetric professors attend to deliveries.
In this way, the final story of the first-year residents, who are quietly growing in their respective roles, will unfold in the final episode of the tvN weekend drama 'Resident Playbook' airing on the 18th at 9:20 p.m.
