Why Go Yoon Jung and Kang You Seok haven't joined Resident Playbook cast in Bali yet? Delayed plans revealed
When is the Bali retreat and what is it about?
Jung Jun Won, Han Ye Ji, Shin Shi Ah and most of the other cast and crew of Resident Playbook are currently enjoying a peaceful vacation in Bali, Indonesia. They reportedly departed on May 26 KST and were set to spend 7 nights and 8 days in the picturesque location, heading back on June 2.
Regarding the aim of the retreat, the production team of tvN drama stated, "It is not a reward vacation for all the cast and staff, but a trip for teamwork purposes." If the retreat is intended for team-building, it raises a valid question as to why Go Yoon Jung and Kang You Seok weren't initially able to participate with the rest of the cast.
Why did Go Yoon Jung and Kang You Seok not travel with the team?
The two beloved OB-GYN residents of the Hospital Playlist spin-off were unable to join the rest of the cast initially due to their individual projects. After completing their personal schedules, Go Yoon Jung and Kang You Seok are now set to join the team trip. On May 30, the latter's side revealed, "Actor Kang Yoo Seok recently departed for Bali." Go Yoon Jung will also reportedly board a flight to Bali through Incheon International Airport on the same day.
Go Yoon Jung and Kang You Seok's latest projects
Kang Yoo Seok, who portrays the sunshiney character, Um Jae Il, a former idol turned OB-GYN resident, had to fit in a 2-night, 3-day visit amidst filming for his upcoming drama Seocho-dong. Go Yoon Jung, who portrays Oh Yi young, a warm-hearted OB-GYN resident, had to wrap up advertisement shoots and other commitments before joining the Resident Playbook team in Bali.

K-pop Star Lee Gi-kwang Makes His Big Screen Debut - And We're So Here For It
Lee Gi-kwang, A character with a twist and a splendid action performance that reveals a cruel wildness behind a gentle appearance From Stage to Screen - The Ultimate Career Glow-Up Remember when our Bollywood stars like Priyanka Chopra and Diljit Dosanjh crossed over to international projects? Well, K-pop is serving us the same energy! Lee Gi-kwang from the legendary boy band Highlight is making his silver screen debut with the thriller " I Kill U ". And honestly, we're getting major goosebumps thinking about this career transition. The film hit theaters on July 23rd, which has already happened. What makes this even more exciting is that "I Kill U" isn't just any random debut - it already made waves at the 29th Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival and bagged the Best Asian Film award from the Melies International Festivals Federation. Talk about starting strong! The Plot That's Got Everyone Talking "I Kill U" follows Sun-woo (played by Kang Ji-young), a former taekwondo prospect who now works part-time jobs. She becomes entangled in a massive conspiracy while trying to raise money for her mother's medical bills. The thriller showcases intense action sequences that would make even our Bollywood action directors proud. Here's where it gets juicy - Lee Gi-kwang plays Ho-jung, who's Ji-yeon's half-brother and the film's main antagonist. Seeing a K-pop idol take on a villain role is like watching Shah Rukh Khan play the bad guy in "Darr" - unexpected but absolutely brilliant. The main poster and trailer revealed Gi-kwang's transformation into this cruel character, showing a gentle exterior hiding savage brutality. Master Director Behind the Action This isn't just any debut film - it's directed by Yoo Ha, the mastermind behind iconic Korean films like "Marriage Is a Crazy Thing," "Once Upon a Time in High School," and "A Dirty Carnival". Having such an established action genre master helm Gi-kwang's debut adds serious credibility to this career transition. It's similar to how our top directors in Bollywood often launch new talent - the backing of experience makes all the difference.
