Jealousy And Revenge Flood The Operating Theater In HYPER KNIFE - A New Korean Medical Drama Coming Exclusively To Disney+ Hotstar
Tuesday, August 20, 2024
When two of Korea’s finest neurosurgeons lock horns, one will be stripped of their license and forced to carry out illegal black market operations in Hyper Knife, an unmissable medical thriller starring two of Korea’s most celebrated actors, coming to Disney+ Hotstar in 2025.
In Hyper Knife, viewers follow Seok, a visionary surgeon who demonstrates unparalleled skill with a scalpel and who’s consumed by the idea of perfection. An incredible star in the surgical field, Seok suddenly finds herself tossed aside and stripped of her medical license after clashing with her mentor and supervising doctor Deokhee. Unwilling to let go of what made her great, Seok continues to carry out back-alley operations until her former mentor who ruined her medical career comes back into her life again.
Starring Park Eunbin as visionary surgeon Seok, and Sul Kyunggu as her supervising doctor Deokhee, Hyper Knife is written by Kim Sunhee (Quiz From God: Reboot) and directed by Kim Junghyun (After the Rain, My Fellow Citizens!).
Hyper Knife is the latest Korean series to be announced as part of the ever-expanding selection of unmissable APAC storytelling on Disney+ Hotstar. In 2024 alone, over 10 high quality Korean titles have been released, building on the positive momentum of the streamer’s APAC content slate from 2023, which featured hits including Moving, Big Bet and The Worst of Evil.
