[Behind the Scenes] Forena Clinic x SNL Korea: Smile Clinic

Last Saturday, Forena Clinic was featured as the backdrop for the latest installment of the iconic SNL Korea segment, Smile Clinic. It was a thrill to see our space used for one of the show's most recognizable and long-running parodies.

The Satire: Kindness vs. "Teot-se"

For those who follow the series, Smile Clinic is famous for its sharp satire of the aesthetic industry—specifically the sharp contrast between the "ultra-kind" service shown to patients and the intense "territorial culture" (텃세) that happens behind the staff room doors.

Reality at Forena

While we enjoyed the comedic drama and the "smiling" office politics shown on screen, the real culture at Forena is built on a very different foundation. We believe that genuine medical excellence is only possible when the team works with real respect for one another. At Forena, the warmth our patients feel is a reflection of our actual workplace environment.

A Cinematic Setting

Our clinic’s premium design continues to be a favorite choice for major K-entertainment productions. We invite you to visit and experience the calm, professional atmosphere—without the SNL drama.
