Actor Choo Young-Woo becomes the "love doctor."

Choo Young-Woo has confirmed he will appear in the Genie TV original drama "Love Doctor," to be released in 2026 (writer Min Hyo-jung, director Ahn Pan-seok).

"Love Doctor" depicts the story of doctoral student Park Min-jae (played by Choo Young-Woo), who was a high school swimmer but lost one leg to illness, and master's student Im Yu-jin (played by Kim So-hyun), who lost her career path, wandered, and then found a new path. It is expected to bring excitement to home viewers as a spicy, bitter and sweet romance that blooms in a robotics laboratory.

In the drama, Choo Young-Woo plays doctoral student Park Min-jae, who found a new life in robotics after his dream was cut short. Having met robotics at the end of despair, Park Min-jae continues his research diligently and silently. Prone to overthinking and fearful of his wounds, he is awkward at expressing emotions, and when Im Yu-jin appears before him, he faces a life-changing transformation.

This year alone Choo Young-Woo has refreshed his screen persona in every project, including The Tale of Lady Ok, The Trauma Code: Heroes on call, Plaza, and Head Over Heels, continually renewing his career character. In particular, whenever he appears, he has dominated both ratings and public attention, firmly establishing himself as a leading actor, and attention is focused on the acting transformation Choo Young-Woo will attempt in "Love Doctor."

The Genie TV original drama "Love Doctor," featuring Choo Young-Woo, will air as a Monday-Tuesday drama on ENA in 2026 and will be released exclusively as free VOD on KT Genie TV.
