This drama has attracted many viewers, who may be wondering if there will be a fourth season. In this blog post, we will talk about Dr. Romantic season 4’s renewal status, rumors, hints, likely plot and cast, release date and schedule, platforms and websites where you can watch it, and why you should watch it. Let’s begin now!
What is Dr. Romantic Series About?
The show recounts the life of Dr. Boo Yong-joo, a triple-board certified surgeon who used to work at Seoul’s leading medical center, Geosan University Hospital. He vanishes after a horrific incident and takes the identity of Kim Sa-bu. He started working at Doldam, a small hospital in Gangwon Province.
Teacher Kim (Kim Sa-bu) helps Kang Dong-Joo (Yoo Yeon-Seok) and Yoon Seo-jeong (Seo Hyun-jin) to become excellent physicians in Season 1 of Dr. Romantic by educating them to fight against power and money for the benefit of patients. Season 2 of Dr. Romantic picks up three years after the events of the first season when Teacher Kim hires a general surgeon from Seoul’s main hospital.
He discovers Seo Woo-jin (Ahn Hyo-shop), a doctor with a rough history who is shunned by his colleagues, and offers him the job. Meanwhile, Cha Eun-jae (played by Lee Sung-kyung) is suspended after making another error in the operating room and is forced to accompany the two doctors to Doldam Hospital.
Three years later, Dr Romantic 3 continues the protagonists from Seasons 1 and 2 as they work on a new medical facility, The Doldam Trauma Centre, alongside Doldam Hospital, overcoming obstacles.
Dr. Romantic Season 3 has received substantial coverage on the site, with episode recaps for the first season as well as a full season review for the K-drama. You can find those HERE.

Dr. Romantic Season 4 Cast
While there has been no official confirmation of a fourth season of Dr. Romantic, the show’s popularity and success indicate that it is a significant possibility. If there is a fourth season, it will most likely contain many of the same cast members as the previous seasons, including:
- Han Suk-kyu as Kim Young-goo
- Ahn Hyo-seop plays Seo Woo-jin
- Lee Sung-Kyung plays Cha Eun-jae
- Kim Min-Jae plays Park Min-kyu
- Jin Kyung plays Oh Myung-shim
- Im Won-hee plays Yoon Woo-Jeong
In addition to these returning cast members, there may be some new cast members added to the show. It’s also feasible that some of the characters who died in earlier seasons will make a surprise reappearance.
Dr. Romantic’s fourth season is sure to be an exciting and wonderful season of medical drama. Fans of the show can expect more of the same superb acting, writing, and directing that they have come to adore.
Everything We Know About Dr. Romantic Season 4
At the time of writing, not much is known about Season 4, as neither Disney+ nor SBS have officially renewed it. If the streamers decide to go ahead with it, it’s safe to anticipate that the show will return for another season in approximately a year or two. According to the season finale of Dr. Romantic 3, Yoon Seo-jeong has returned to the hospital to complete the larger picture that Teacher Kim mentioned.
Because Teacher Kim runs Doldam Hospital on his own, it’s possible that Seo-Jeong works with the newbie resident doctors and trains them in the same way that Teacher Kim did here. We can only hope to see how Woo-jin and Eun-Jae marry while Eun-tak and A-reum move into a house with a yard and raise a pet as they had hoped.
The show may shed some insight into Master Kim’s health condition in the coming season, while Woo-jin also suffers from his hand injury in the same way that Seo-Jeong does.
A formal announcement is likely to be made some months from now, once the final viewing figures are in, but for the time being, we’ll have to wait and watch. More information will be added to this section as it becomes available.
