Actor Joo Ji-hoon is set to play a genius trauma surgeon in his upcoming project, delivering a refreshing and exhilarating human drama.

The production team behind the Netflix series 'The Trauma Code: Heroes on call' (directed by Lee Do-yoon) confirmed on January 7 that the show will premiere on January 24. Along with the announcement, they released a teaser poster and trailer.

In the series, Baek Kang-hyuk (played by Joo Ji-hoon) takes up a position as a trauma surgery professor. From his very first day, he stuns the hospital with his extraordinary skills and unconventional behavior. He boldly declares his mission to transform the trauma surgery team into a fully functional "Severe Trauma Center."

Determined to save patients during the golden hour, Baek Kang-hyuk stops at nothing to ensure their survival. His unwavering stance is clear as he confidently says, "This is my territory."

The teaser poster leaves a strong impression. It features Baek Kang-hyuk standing in front of an operating table, wearing a bloodstained shirt. His expression exudes confidence amidst the tense atmosphere of the surgical room. A tattoo on his arm adds to his rebellious image.

'The Trauma Code: Heroes on call' follows the story of Baek Kang-hyuk, a genius trauma surgeon who once worked on the battlefield. He takes charge of a poorly functioning trauma team and strives to breathe new life into it.

Joo Ji-hoon plays Baek Kang-hyuk, a bold and fearless doctor who refuses to bow to injustice. He's portrayed as a "reckless angel" who seeks to revive the underappreciated trauma team.

Actor Chu Young-woo plays Yang Jae-won, an elite fellow summoned to join the trauma team. Ha Young stars as Cheon Jang-mi, a tough senior nurse with five years of experience in trauma care.

Yoon Kyung-ho takes on the role of Han Yu-rim, head of the proctology department and a vocal opponent of Baek Kang-hyuk. Meanwhile, Jung Jae-kwang plays Park Kyung-won, a determined anesthesiology resident.

The series is based on a popular webtoon of the same name. It is directed by Lee Do-yoon, known for the film 'Good Friends,' and written by Choi Tae-gang, who previously worked on tvN's 'Adamas.'

Director Lee Do-yoon described the show as "a prescription-like drama that delivers laughter, emotion, action, and comedy." He added, "It's a hero story, an action spectacle, a human drama, and a comedy all in one."
