Jung Yu Mi and Nam Joo Hyuk have an important mission together in Netflix new original series, The School Nurse Files!
Fighting monsters, saving the school and going to lunch after, appear to be an unlikely combination of activity; but the two actors’ newest characters diligently agree on this goal.
With its approaching premiere, Netflix has been teasing K-Drama fans with their newest treat. After introducing the main characters, The School Nurse Files pitched a fascinating new poster featuring Ahn Eun-young (Jung Yu Mi) and Hong In-pyo (Nam Joo Hyuk) standing side by side against the backdrop of the sun setting in Seoul.
Visible in the picture are floating jellyfish and whale surrounding them. Not real animals though because those are jellies representing invisible blobs of greed; and only Nurse Eun-young can see those jellies.
Before meeting these two jelly-busting teachers, let’s take a closer look on the series.
Plot Sketch
Painting the story of Ahn Eun-young (Jung Yu Mi), the series traverses her journey as a school nurse who realizes cryptic occurrences at her new school, she untangles the mysteries with the help of Classical Chinese teacher Hong In-pyo (Nam Joo Hyuk).
Nurse Eun-young has special ability to see “supernatural Jellies” that are invisible to everyone else. Representing invisible blobs of greed, the ‘jellies’ were inadvertently unleashed by In-pyo from its containment seal.
With Eun-young having the power to see the ‘jellies’, she confronts a challenging life battling supernatural creatures. Lucky for her, she discovers that In-pyo has a special energy that recharges her power and protects her. Together, they wage war against the Jellies to defend the school and the students.
Threading on a supernatural theme, The School Nurse Files incorporates the idea of Jellies. Created unknowingly by living beings, jellies are remnants of their desires. While most of it are powerless, the jellies can get dangerous when tampered. Ahn Eun-young has devoted her life to exorcise them using the special gift of perception she was born with.
Main Leads
Delivering a refreshingly novel story, The School Nurse Files boasts innovative visual effects. As seen on the main poster, Ahn Eun-young defeats jellies and Hong In-pyo keeps her charged up.
Ahn Eun-young, who has led a lonely life fighting the battle unbeknownst to others, and Hong In-pyo, whose disabled leg has made him distance himself from others, come together as two incomplete people who find wholeness in each other. Jung Yu-mi and Nam Joo-hyuk create brilliant on-screen chemistry with their portrayal of these roles.
