KBS2 has released a highlight teaser for its new drama “Face Me,” set to premiere on November 6 at 9:50 p.m. KST. This mystery thriller combines elements of medical and crime genres, featuring Lee Min Ki as a cold, driven plastic surgeon and Han Ji Hyun as a dedicated detective. The two characters form an unexpected team to solve crimes, using unique investigative techniques involving reconstructive surgeries.
Synopsis: A Surgeon and Detective’s Unlikely Alliance
In “Face Me,” Lee Min Ki plays Cha Jeong Woo, a skilled but emotionally detached plastic surgeon. While his talents in the operating room are undeniable, his lack of empathy often alienates those around him. The teaser showcases his interactions with patients, including a tense moment with a burn victim’s family. In one scene, he bluntly declares, “I don’t perform reconstructive surgery,” creating a cold and isolating atmosphere in the hospital.
Opposite him, Han Ji Hyun stars as Lee Min Hyeong, a detective known for her fiery spirit and courage. The teaser includes a scene where she appears in an off-the-shoulder dress during an undercover operation, highlighting her versatility and determination. When she spots a suspect, she wastes no time, launching into a high-energy chase that ends in a successful arrest.
Tension and Confrontation: Hospital Drama and Crime
The storyline intensifies as Jeong Woo clashes with Kim Seok Hoon (played by Jeon Bae Soo), the chief director of KSH. A heated debate arises when Seok Hoon finds a severely injured trauma patient and urges immediate surgery. However, Jeong Woo disagrees, insisting the patient should be transferred to a university hospital. The tension between the two characters underlines Jeong Woo’s adherence to protocol over emotional engagement.
Despite his reservations, Jeong Woo ultimately performs a high-stakes emergency surgery on a crime victim, stepping beyond his usual detachment. This operation marks a pivotal point in his character’s journey, pushing him to provide critical medical support for those affected by crime.
Building Mystery: Unanswered Questions
As the teaser unfolds, viewers are introduced to a mysterious character with a dark past. The scenes hint at suspicious activity and leave questions about this character’s connection to Jeong Woo and the unfolding events. Who is targeting Jeong Woo, and what unresolved issues lie in his history? The teaser suggests deeper layers of intrigue, setting the stage for suspense and drama as the story progresses.
“Face Me” will air in the time slot previously held by “Dog Knows Everything,” promising an intense viewing experience for fans of mystery and thriller genres.
