As the Netflix series 'Severe Trauma Center', which was released in an eight-part series on January 24, became a hot topic, interest in Ewha Womans University Seoul Hospital (Hospital Director Joo Woong) is also increasing.

Ewha Womans University Hospital is the main filming location of Hankook University Hospital in the work, and from May to November 2023, filming was held in the outer diameter of the hospital on the first to third floors, the lobby, the entrance to the emergency treatment center, the outpatient clinic, the healing garden on the fourth floor, and the first treatment lounge.




In addition, Professor Song Seung-hwan of Cardiovascular Thoracic Surgery, Professor Cho Dong-young of Neurosurgery, Professor Hwang Yeok-gu of Orthopedic Surgery, and Professor Lee Jae-gil of Ewha Mokdong Hospital participated in the advisory group to save realistic evidence and medical details.

Kim Tae-yoon, a professor of critical care surgery at Ewha Womans University Seoul Hospital who participated in the production of the 'Severe Trauma Center" as the head of the advisory group, advised the reality to be well documented from a medical perspective on how medical staff respond to urgent situations such as traffic accidents, falls, etc."

He continued "Not all of the content in the series matches the actual medical field, but as emphasized in the work, the most important point is 'Golden Time". It is important to find a medical institution that can provide the fastest and most effective medical treatment in the event of a major accident.'




Ewha Womans University Seoul Hospital, which has won the Excellence Award at the Korea Architecture and Culture Awards and the Grand Prize at the Korea Green Architecture Festival, is well known for its open outpatient space, well-lit and ventilated interior, and its high floor height as 'Hospital that is not like a hospital' and 'Healing Space that gives comfort to patients'. As a result, a number of medical dramas have been set, including Yulje Hospital in the tvN drama 'Wise Doctor Life' in 2020, and Seoul Hansae Hospital in the SBS drama 'Doctor John' in 2019.

Once again, it appeared as the main hospital of the Netflix series 'Severe Trauma Center', and it became known again that it was a patient-friendly space.

Joo Woong, director of Ewha Womans University Seoul Hospital, said "Through the work, the comfortable interior space and pleasant environment of Ewha Womans University Seoul Hospital are known, which is significant. In addition, the employees' pride increased when the hospital they worked for appeared in the media, which helped boost morale.




"Like the drama, Seoul Medical Center is equipped with state-of-the-art emergency medical facilities and has a helipad on the roof, so helicopters can be transported from all over the country, so emergency patients can be treated at all times."In the future, we will continue to actively operate an emergency medical center in the base area for the treatment of severe emergency patients and strive to designate the 6th advanced general hospital."
