My Happy Ending korean drama

The drama delves into their high school rivalry through flashback scenes, where Park Hyung-sik's character, a plastic surgeon, and Park Shin-hye's character, an anesthesiologist, compete for top honors.

Park Hyung-sik's character faces a setback in his career when a patient dies unexpectedly during surgery, leading to a crisis of confidence and financial difficulties. However, the actor emphasizes the resilience and warmth of his character, encouraging him to persevere with conviction and a kind heart.

The drama explores themes of friendship and self-discovery as the characters find solace in each other's company. Ha-neul's burnout and Jeong-woo's loss of status bring them closer together, highlighting their mutual understanding and need for companionship.

Park Hyung-sik was drawn to the role by the message of the drama and the depth of the characters, emphasizing the importance of storytelling and character development in his acting choices. Known for his roles in various dramas and films, including 'Strong Girl Bong Soon' and 'Juror 8,' Park Hyung-sik continues to captivate audiences with his versatile performances.
