Dr. Ethan Choi is alive and well, and he looks ready to get back to work. A teaser for the upcoming episode "A Square Peg in a Round Hole," which is available to view here, features the doctor back among his colleagues, sharing hugs and fond greetings. While he does look happy to be back among the staff, it remains to be seen how he'll respond to the horrifying incident from which he just recovered.
It's great to see Brian Tee back in the fold, though it's worth noting that the actor is in high demand and could possibly take more vacations from "Chicago Med" if meaty, high-profile opportunities keep finding their way to him. As Deadline points out, the most likely reason for his hiatus was due to the filming of "Expats," an upcoming Amazon series in which he'll star alongside Nicole Kidman. That being said, Tee has been billed as a regular cast member for Season 7, so Dr. Choi fans can look forward to seeing their man in action for a while.
