Rising actress Shin Si Ah is making waves with her heartfelt performance in the “Hospital Playlist” spin-off drama “Resident Playbook” where she plays the earnest first-year resident Pyo Nam Kyung.
The drama, which follows young doctors growing through their residency, features Shin Si Ah portraying a character who’s awkward but deeply compassionate. Her emotional range particularly during scenes involving a breakup with her boyfriend of 7 years—has earned praise for its raw honesty and relatability.
Beyond her acting, Shin Si Ah’s in-drama fashion and props, like Pyo Nam Kyung’s phone case, necklace, watch, and even hairstyle, have gained traction online, with fans searching for items featured in her scenes.
But Shin Si Ah’s charm isn’t just a recent discovery. She made a high-profile debut in “The Witch: Part 2” in 2022. The role came after she beat out 1,408 applicants to land the lead part. Despite the pressure of starring in a highly anticipated sequel as her very first project, she delivered a stable and impactful performance that impressed both critics and audiences.
In “Resident Playbook”, Pyo Nam Kyung’s dynamic with fellow intern Kim Sa Bi (played by actress Han Ye Ji) adds comic tension and emotional realism, thanks to their clashing personalities. Episode 6 even saw a subtle power struggle with nurse Yeo Joo Yeon, giving viewers a taste of Shin Si Ah’s nuanced expressions.
As viewers take notice of Shin Si Ah’s growth and versatility, from an intense sci-fi action debut to a deeply relatable medical drama, the buzz around her future projects continues to grow.
Meanwhile, “Resident Playbook”‘s OST features a star-studded lineup including Stray Kids’ Lee Know, Seungmin, and I.N, IVE’s An Yujin, EXO’s D.O., aespa’s Winter, TXT, SEVENTEEN’s DK, and (G)I-DLE’s Minnie.
