- The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call has entered production on Seasons 2 and 3 at Netflix, with Season 1 having hit Top 10 lists in 63 countries and topped the global chart in 18.
- Ju Ji-hoon and Choo Young-woo are returning as surgeon Baek Kang-hyuk and his protégé Yang Jae-won, respectively, alongside returning cast members Yoon Kyung-ho and Jeong Jae-kwang.
- Park Gyeong-won and Jeong Ye-in joined the cast after a "rigorous audition process," with Jeong Ye-in set to play nurse Cheon Jang-mi.
- Director Lee Do-yun is back to helm both new seasons and is also writing the scripts.
- The series is based on the webtoon "Trauma Center: Golden Hour," with Studio N and Mays Entertainment attached as co-producers.
Why it matters: Netflix is committing to two additional seasons at once rather than a single-season renewal, a stronger vote of confidence in a Korean title that topped charts in 18 markets. For Ju Ji-hoon and Choo Young-woo, the dual renewal secures continued global visibility, while the audition-based additions of Park Gyeong-won and Jeong Ye-in signal the production is expanding its ensemble rather than relying solely on returning players.
