Kim Bum becomes Rain’s avatar in new teaser for Ghost Doctor

by tccolb

A new video teaser has been released for tvN’s upcoming medical-fantasy drama Ghost Doctor, featuring lead actors Rain (Welcome 2 Life) and Kim Bum (Law School).

The drama stars Rain as the talented but arrogant doctor Cha Young-min who worked hard to get to where he is in life and is confident in his own abilities. Enter the delinquent resident doctor Go Seung-tak, played by Kim Bum, who is different from Rain in every way. He’s lacking in both skills and brains, but made it through medical school thanks to his family’s money and connections. Somehow, the two end up sharing a body and develop a reluctant bromance.

In the new teaser we get a fun look at Rain directing Kim Bum’s movements like a robotic avatar. With concentration, Rain moves Kim left and right as he prepares for surgery. Kim Bum remains obedient, but gets frustrated when Rain suddenly scratches his nose. Rain looks satisfied with himself and the teaser comes to an end with Rain sitting on Kim’s head as he continues to control Kim Bum’s body. In voiceover, Rain reads out the caption: “Body-rental medical Ghost Doctor premieres January.”

Written by Kim Seon-soo (Live Up to Your Name) and directed by Bu Sung-chul (Our Gapsoon, My Girlfriend Is a Gumiho), tvN’s Ghost Doctor premieres on January 3, 2022.
