The primary teaser and poster for Netflix’s upcoming webtoon adaptation of Kim Ra-ha’s Every day Dose of Sunshine is right here, giving us a have a look at the psych ward nurse Park Bo-young (Doom at Your Service) as she learns the ropes of serving to sufferers with psychological problems.

The story follows nurse Jung Da-eun (Park Bo-young), a former inner medication nurse who will get transferred to the psychiatric ward of her hospital. It’s a distinct ball recreation from what she’s used to in her previous unit, however fortunately she’s empathetic, earnest, and desperate to roll up her sleeves and get to work. As she learns extra about what psychological problems are like and what her sufferers want, she’ll do her finest to brighten up everybody’s day — even these of her coworkers, like the top nurse Lee Jung-eun (Lacking: The Different Aspect 2) and the burnt out proctology physician Yeon Woo-jin (Thirty-9).

The teaser is an attention-grabbing mixture of quirkiness and sincerity I can solely describe as Wes Anderson meets The Faculty Nurse Recordsdata. We comply with Da-eun on her first day of labor, the place nurse Music Hyo-jin (Lee Jung-eun) lets her in on the primary main distinction of the psych ward: they don’t have curtains, so their morning begins sooner than everybody else. It’s meant to be a comment on how onerous the work is, however there’s additionally the optimistic subtext that their ward will get to be the primary to obtain the solar every morning.

We see that duality play out as we get clips of Da-eun at work. Whereas on some days she comes residence and instantly passes out on the ground, on different days she finds it fulfilling, musing that, “It’s a disgrace that solely good folks appear to finish up right here.” We additionally get a glimpse of her goofing off along with her finest buddy Music Yu-chan, performed by Jang Dong-yoon (Oasis).

However halfway by way of the teaser, we get a whole 180-degree tonal shift — full with an enormous CGI dragon — because the teaser reveals what I assume are the interior portrayals of some sufferers’ psychological battles. The hospital devolves right into a raucous mess, with Da-eun doing her finest to maintain up with the frenzy, however admitting, “I’m undecided what to do to assist these sufferers.”

Nonetheless, amidst the craziness, the phrases of Hyo-jin finish the teaser on a hopeful be aware: “Even the darkest nights don’t final ceaselessly. The morning will at all times come.”

With the screenplay tailored by the writers of Behind Your Contact — Lee Nam-gyu, Kim Da-hee, and Oh Bo-hyun — and directed by Lee Jae-gyu (All of Us Are Useless), Every day Dose of Sunshine will premiere on November 3 on Netflix.
