She will take on the role of Sibby, Sacred Heart’s HR and wellness manager. Joel Kim Booster, who told the media in a December interview that he grew up watching the original series, is taking on the role of Dr Eric Park, an attending at Sacred Heart.

“It was syndicated everywhere when I was in high school. I definitely have seen every episode, but they’re all out of order,” Booster said, adding that it’s interesting as the series evokes “all these memories”. He also admitted, “It’s crazy to be a part of a show that I watched for so long and is so beloved too.”
