Doctor Slump
I feel like this will be full of unpopular opinions so first of all I do not find Park Shin Hye's acting bad and I like her character. Park Hyung Sik was perfect in this drama and once again unpopular but I love his character here while I do not really like his role in Strong Woman Do Bong Soon which can be found weird cause his characters were similar. I like chemistry between main leads and their story also l love second leads couple. Story contains topics as trauma and depressions so maybe not for everyone but it is really a good healing type of drama.The last unpopular opinion is that it is one of my favourite drama's from 2024, I strongly believe that it is worth watching.

Rays of sunshine on a rainy day kind of drama. Little cliffhanger, but keeps one emotionally engaged
Very nice story with mostly realistic depiction of mental struggles. Quite relatable if one has been in a depression or cared for someone in a depression before. The story mostly makes sense and while the characters don't always behave rational, they do behave in ways that are relatable and human, giving the circumstances.The overall tone of the drama is still uplifting and a ray of light in the gray fog type of thing. It never gets full on tragic and bleak or sad moments are always followed by specks of hope following them. This way the story writers prevent the "phase (/feeling) of totall hopelessness and everything is bad" that often is done in such dramas as a stark contrast before a happy end, even though it is a drama about two ppl at the lowest point in their live.
I must also say that I'm a sucker for relationships that help both ppl becoming better versions of themselves and giving strength, even though new romantic relationships are a very risky thing in these types of moments in reality (the mental instability types).
Ignore the music rating. I did not really pay attantion to that, so i just put (8/10) there as a number was required.
This might end up being my new comfort drama for when i need an escape from daily life.
Definetly recommended.

THIS DRAMA IS A GOOD WARM HUG
Will always be a doctor slump defender. This drama is soo refreshing and gave me good laugh. This series is like a warm bowl of soup you would have in cold winter morning. For those who says this drama is boring, your opinion is rejected sorry not sorry. This show focuses on mental health and how the characters handle their emotions or feelings which they never considered of caring about before for the first time The way they potrayed the progress, it felt so good. There has not been one single ep ( except for 14 ) where i did not laugh. I don't think i ever laughed so much in a drama like this one before. I am never a type of person who would rewatch a series but this one? i remember i finished ep 2 after it got aired and immediately rewatched the ep because it was that good and im considering to rewatch the whole drama soon. I do agree that it got a little stretched towards the end and should've finished at 12 ep, but regardless it is still a really really amazing series. And i felt so proud towards the main characters in the end because of their progress. 10/10 for meWas this review helpful to you?
two people healing each other ?
it‘s been a while since i watched it, but boy the bad reviews - i gotta say that this got me into kdramas after a slight kdrama slump (how ironic lol😭). park shin hye‘s acting improved, thats my personal opinion. as for park hyung sik, i‘ve always loved the dramas i watched with him in it. the story is calm but interesting. Its not as eventful, but for me just the perfect amount🫶 first of all i love the tropes. academic rivals just do it for me. I love the bickering between the leads. i loved their relationship sm. their interactions😭🫶🫶the ml was too cute i simply cant with their cuteness! adressing the criticism according their alcohol consumption - yes they drank a lot. yes its not good with anti depressants, but it is a drama still. not everything is as realistic🤓☝🏼Was this review helpful to you?

Healing Isn’t Linear and This Drama Understands That
This drama feels like a deep breath you didn’t realize you were holding.Doctor Slump is gentle, honest, and quietly powerful. It doesn’t glamorize burnout or rush recovery. Instead, it sits with exhaustion, disappointment, and the identity loss that comes when high achievers finally break. And in doing so, it feels profoundly human.
Jeong Woo and Ha Neul aren’t falling from grace. They’re learning how to exist without constant excellence as their armor. Their connection grows not from sparks or chaos, but from shared stillness, mutual understanding, and the relief of not having to perform. The romance is soft, emotionally safe, and deeply comforting.
What makes the drama exceptional is its respect for mental health. Failure isn’t treated as a plot device. Rest isn’t framed as weakness. Healing is slow, awkward, and deeply personal. The story reminds you that success means very little if you’re empty inside, and that choosing yourself can be the bravest decision of all.
The pacing allows emotions to land naturally, the humor is warm rather than forced, and the love story feels like partnership rather than escape.
🌱 10/10 for compassion, emotional maturity, and a drama that whispers a truth many people desperately need to hear: it’s okay to stop, to rest, and to start again.

Who stays with you at your bottom
Right so I'm not usually fan of rom com and the reviews were making me so confused whether I should watch it or not I went in without any expectations and can't tell how fast the time went with this drama I watched it in one day it was funny it was emotional it had its momentsit also tells how life doesn't remain the same one day you have everything and the other you have nothing it's the people who not only stays with you at the the top but also when you are at the bottom same as the heroine was with the hero at his low and hero with heroine at her low and I found the leads quite funny and relatable and I barely like 2nd couples but this 2nd couple was so cute and the fight of their couple was so cute when they were drunk overall the drama is definitely a solid 9 for me don't listen to people who are saying it's bad I am not even a fan of romantic genre yet I found it so good everyone definitely give it a try also

Fantástico
Médicos em Colapso, uma história empolgante, linda, delicada trazendo o tema central muito bem trabalhado, atores ótimos que dão vida a um belíssimo enredo! É uma história que apensar de ir e voltar no tempo, soube situar com maestria essa linha do tempo. E o que dizer do final? Uma narrativa que soube dar um excelente fechamento aos diversos enredos e histórias paralelas que foram surgindo. Apesar de querer dar um sustinho no final, somos agraciados com a concretização de uma bela história de romance que tem final feliz!Was this review helpful to you?
Finally 2 intelligent lead love story
My favourite love story is Japanese anime kareshi kanoshi. Two intelligent independent characters falling in love and loving lovingly, with good sense and supporting each other strongly . Hard to find such love story but Dr Slump seems to be one. Ep8 still good. Hope it end well. Skip all other dull characters and scenes. Focus on the ML&FL story is much more enjoyable. At least for me, a skip queen😂. Hope you enjoy the drama!!!!Was this review helpful to you?
Rewatched 3 Times
When I first watched it, I was moved by how positive it was overall. I'm not someone who rewatches drama often, but I found myself rewatching this for the 3rd time in 2026. Times have been hard and this drama has a very positive and supportive tone between the leads, some humor, definitely a lot of cute, and what strikes the most is clear communication. It is SO refreshing to hear mature conversations between two adults about their relationship. It taught me a lot and I believe many can learn from their dialogues. This drama uplifts, while giving all the giggles since it is sort of a rom com alongside the slump trope. I recommend this to anyone who is tired of other heavier rom coms that blur the line of drama and pack way too much.Was this review helpful to you?
A very bad story and cringey acting
I decided to finally watch this drama after having it on my list for a long time. I’d seen a few episodes when it first aired in 2023, but I gave up back then. This time, I got through 10 episodes but couldn’t finish the tenth. The main leads just didn’t feel convincing, and their acting seemed awkward and forced, especially the female lead. The story relies too much on characters overhearing conversations, which drives most of the main plot twists. If it happened occasionally, it might work, but it happens far too often. The second leads have better chemistry, and the second female lead acts more naturally. That’s how I feel up to episode 10. I might finish it if I run out of other dramas to watch, but otherwise, I’ll probably move on.Was this review helpful to you?
say Ep1 was Meh and not that wow But
I'm already Sold off just when l'm done
with ep1 because AHH this is actually the
first Kdrama I've seen this year that
actually making me stay. I like The First
EP 1which is A SOLID start to building
the internal conflict and The Hook of a
show. makes a viewer wants to
know...what happens next. Pretty good
writing there tbh. that's what's needed in
a good 1st EP.
Impress me how they still Look good and
Young in Highschool! (Not Young as
realistic high schooler) BUT how are they
still so young omg. it's been years.
Acting wise l'm not worried AT ALL.
PARK shin Hye is serving and l'm glad she
is as always
Hyunsik wow. His facial expressions are
literally my fav type of things.
Effortlessly funny. me getting flashback
of MinMin
Excited for more. With 16 eps please
don't let me down!!

Male lead’s predicament also incidentally echoes the recent tragedy of an actor when he suffered a dramatic fall from grace. The line between right and wrong is blurred. Years of hard work and success could be destroyed just overnight.
The premise is dark and heavy yet the series injects hope and narrates its story in a bright and lighthearted manner. There’s in fact plenty of LOL moments. (Hyungsik is so funny 😆)
Good story, great humor and brilliant acting so far. This healing drama deserves all of the hype and more. Hope it gets even better. Just stream it.
