The SBS drama "Doctor Stranger" was such a big hit in China that it will also be released there as a movie. The medical espionage drama is being edited to film length, but despite its popularity when previously shown, central elements of the plot and the ending are being changed.

The 20-episode drama, totaling around 1,400 minutes, is being cut down to 120 minutes. But at the same time that the drama's footage was being cut, additional footage was also being shot.

The additional footage was shot because essential parts of the original plot were deleted and the existing ending no longer made sense without the deleted scenes.
