[Exclusive] Lovelyz’s Yein, the New Face of ‘Trauma Code 2’ After Ha-young’s Departure from the ‘Pro-Japanese Family’ Role

Netflix's 'The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call' New Season: Chun Jang-mi RoleJung Ye-in
[My Daily = Reporter Kim Jin-seok] Jung Ye-in (28), formerly of Lovelyz, will become the new face of 'The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call.'

According to My Daily's report on the 23rd, Jung Ye-in will play Chun Jang-mi in Seasons 2 and 3 of the Netflix original 'The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call.'

The production company of 'The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call' held auditions for numerous actors to fill the vacancy left by Ha-young (33, Ahn Ha-young), who stepped down amid controversy over her family's pro-Japanese ties, and ultimately selected Jung Ye-in. According to an industry insider, Jung Ye-in's performance at the audition was outstanding.

Chun Jang-mi, played by Jung Ye-in, is a nurse on the severe trauma team and an indispensable character in the drama. She is a central figure who drives the story alongside Ju Ji-hoon, Choo Young-woo, and Yoon Kyung-ho. Ha-young played the role in the first season, receiving great love from viewers. However, controversy erupted recently after it became known that Ha-young's great-grandfather was Ahn Sang-ho, the first doctor to open a practice in Hanyang and a physician who served in the Japanese colonial governing organization Jeonui while promoting the extreme policy of naeseon ilche, or Japan-Korea unity. As a result, Ha-young had no choice but to leave the production. A new actor was sought for the sake of the drama, and Jung Ye-in will fill the role.

Jung Ye-in, who debuted in November 2014 as a member of the girl group Lovelyz, took on acting in 2017 through the web drama 'The Blue Sea' and tvN's 'Criminal Minds,' demonstrating her potential as an actress with her poised performances. Since then, she has played diverse characters across various platforms, including TVING and WATCHA's 'A Country That Wants to Become an Insider,' Dramabox's 'The Mysterious Chaebol's Daughter,' and Naver Clip's 'The Vending Machine Ghost.'

'The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call' will film Seasons 2 and 3 simultaneously, beginning next month.
