Joo Yeo-jeong (Korean: 주여정) is a deuteragonist in the Korean drama series The Glory. He is portrayed by Lee Do-hyun.

Biography

Yeo-jeong works as a plastic surgeon at Seoul Joo General Hospital. His father, Joo Jong-heon, ran the hospital until he was murdered by Kang Yeong-cheon.

Throughout The Glory

While being an inpatient at Seoul Joo General Hospital, the hospital where he works, Yeo-jeong gets to know fellow inpatient Moon Dong-eun. The two play Go in the park. Yeo-jeong has feelings for Dong-eun, but she is too focused on plotting revenge to notice. She is also wary of his privileged life as Yeo-jeong's father ran the hospital where he's now employed.

Personality

Yeo-jeong is a quiet and talented doctor. He seems eager to do a good job and despite many rejections from Dong-eun, he offers himself time and again at her service. After bearing witness to Dong-eun’s scars, he asks her who he has to kill for her. As the series continues, it is revealed that Yeo-jeong’s father was murdered by a serial killer who has been sending letters to Yeo-jeong detailing the murder. He hides his psychological torment from others and likely finds Dong-eun’s path to revenge cathartic; ultimately, it leads to the two dating and teaming up to exact his revenge on his father’s killer.

Physical appearance

He is tall and has unstyled hair. In one scene, a woman remarks that he is good looking for a doctor, to which he replies that his nickname is “Mr. Handsome”.

Trivia

• Yeo-jeong's doorcode is 3724. 3724 is the prisoner number of Kang Yeong-cheon, the man who murdered his father.
• Yeo-jeong's birthday is on January 16. His parents never knew what to get him for his birthday, so every year, he opened the 16th page of the January issue of GQ magazine, and his parent bought whatever was on that page.
