- Netflix confirmed Seasons 2 and 3 of Korean medical drama "The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call" are in production, with both set to stream exclusively on the platform.
- Ju Ji-hoon and Choo Young-woo reprise their roles as surgeon Baek Kang-hyuk and protégé Yang Jae-won, joined by returning Yoon Kyung-ho (now as planning/coordination partner Han Yu-rim) and Jeong Jae-kwang as anesthesiologist Park Gyeong-won, plus newcomer Jeong Ye-in as nurse Cheon Jang-mi.
- Season 1 (2025) reached Netflix's Top 10 in 63 countries and hit No. 1 in 18 of them, per the streamer.
- Lee Do-yun returns as both director and screenwriter, with Studio N and Mays Entertainment producing the adaptation of webtoon "Trauma Center: Golden Hour."
- The streamer has not announced premiere dates for either new season, leaving fans without a release window.
Why it matters: By greenlighting two seasons simultaneously rather than the more typical single-season renewal, Netflix gives writer-director Lee Do-yun and returning stars Ju Ji-hoon and Choo Young-woo creative continuity to plan a continuous story arc — a notable commitment given Season 1 hit No. 1 in 18 countries.
