Korean movie - "The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call" is about Baek Kang Hyuk (Joo Ji Hoon) - a genius surgeon with a stubborn personality, unwilling to compromise.
Returning to Korea after years of experience in war zones, he works to revive the hospital's trauma center and save patients on the brink of life and death.
After a week of release, Joo Ji Hoon's drama continues to rise on Netflix's non-English TV show chart.
According to the latest statistics, “Trauma Care Center” ranked 2nd on Netflix Global TV Show’s non-English TV show chart. It also ranked 3rd on Good Data Corporation’s news chart.

According to Wikitree (Korea), the majority of viewers left positive comments for the film: “The story is very fresh about Baek Kang Hyuk. The attractive point is that there are no forced details about love or chronic diseases in Korea. I hope the cast continues to appear in part 2”.
Or: “I didn’t expect much but the drama was very interesting”, “I stayed up all night to watch the drama”, “Everyone please watch this drama. I’ve never seen such an engaging drama”, “I watched all 8 episodes and Joo Ji Hoon played the role of Baek Kang Hyuk perfectly”…
Naver commented that the success of the work is largely due to Joo Ji Hoon. The actor is considered the “soul” of the film “Trauma Care Center” - who portrayed the character Baek Kang Hyuk with his characteristic witty and relaxed acting style.
The Korean star's masculine appearance and voice, which is said to be "as loud as a loudspeaker", are also plus points that help make the medical drama more interesting.
Notably, as soon as the film "Trauma Care Center" received the love of audiences at home and abroad, there was a lot of information that the work would produce part 2.
Author Lee Nak Joon said that the movie will definitely have a part 2 because the story has just begun. He himself also plans to make a part 3 for his webtoon (online comic).
Meanwhile, the male lead Joo Ji Hoon was also extremely excited, expressing his desire to discuss details if the film could release part 2.
“Every time I complete a project, I realize how important my fellow actors are. The director and actors are very good and they work very hard. If a second season of ‘Trauma Care Center’ is produced, it will definitely be a great experience. There is no reason for me to say no,” he said.
