As obtained by a news outlet, the 32-year-old actress expressed her deep affection to her co-stars as they get reunited for the forthcoming sequel.
Calling it "strange" and at the same time fascinating," Lee Sung Kyung described filming "Dr. Romantic 3" as if she had gone in a "time machine and gone back to the day after filming Season 2 three years ago."
The actress shared that the whole cast and team treat everyone as a family.
She feels like she could do "even the most difficult shoots" as fun as possible because of her co-stars.
As for her senior, Han Suk Kyu, she described her as a "master in real life."
"He always sets an example and is someone I want to take after and learn from," Lee Sung Kyung said, adding that they call him "master more than 'senior' in real life."
For three seasons, Han Suk Kyu continued to play the role of Kim Sa Bu, who was once a famous city-based surgeon but chose to work in a shabby hospital in the countryside due to an incident.
There, he meets a new breed of surgeons, whom he will teach not only about medicine but also about life.
