Lee Sung-kyung, Park Hyeong-sik's former girlfriend

Actress Lee Sung-kyung will make a special appearance in JTBC's Saturday-Sunday drama 'Doctor Slump'.

On the 11th, 'Doctor Slump' released a still cut announcing Lee Sung-kyung's special appearance ahead of the 6th broadcast. In the play, Lee Sung-kyung transforms into Yeo Jeong-woo's (played by Park Hyeong-sik) ex-fiancé and a jealous figure for Nam Ha-neul (played by Park Shin-hye).

Earlier, Yeo Jung-woo's trauma from the medical accident worsened, and Nam Ha-neul became confused about his feelings toward her. However, Yeo Yeong-woo hid his true feelings for Nam Ha-neul and drew a line between them as friends. After spending a while with him, I realized my own situation that I had forgotten about. Just when the relationship between the two was becoming awkward, Yeo Yeong-woo explained the reason why he had no choice but to ignore Nam Ha-neul, saying, "I'm not qualified." At the end of the broadcast, Nam Ha-neul, who realized that Yeo Jung-woo was suffering from post-traumatic stress syndrome, gave him a comforting hug, creating warm excitement.

Lee Sung-kyung will make a special appearance due to her relationship with director Oh Hyun-jong, who worked with her on the drama 'Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok-joo'. Lee Sung-kyung is said to give a passionate performance as Yeo Jeong-woo and Nam Ha-neul's high school classmate. In the photo released on this day, he is wearing the school uniform visual of his first love at the time, and is shyly talking to Yeo Jeong-woo across the desk partition.

14 years later, she happens to meet Yeo Jeong-woo and Nam Ha-neul, a mysterious classmate. He casually holds Yeo Jeong-woo's hand, and his smile, alone in beautiful memories, catches everyone's attention. Above all, Jealousy is burning in Nam Ha-neul's straight-faced eyes with her arms crossed as if she is not happy about this meeting at all. It stimulates curiosity as to how the three people are intertwined and what variable his appearance will be in the relationship between Yeo Jeong-woo and Nam Ha-neul.

The production team of 'Doctor Slump' said, "We would like to thank actor Lee Sung-kyung once again for willingly accepting the offer to make a special appearance. He also had experience working with actors Park Hyeong-sik and Park Shin-hye, so he made the atmosphere on set even more pleasant. With his short but powerful appearance, “We will show a presence that goes beyond a special appearance,” he said.
