Strong first half.

Classic!
ML is a doctor. Hospital is a primary setting due to SML being a patient as well.
8. A Beautiful Mind

Guilty pleasure?
9. Live Up to Your Name

Time travel romance.
Interesting dynamic, as you see modern day medicine vs historical acupuncture techniques.
10. Life

The show itself is mid but I extremely enjoyed the ship it gave me (KSH & LNE).
Plot wise it kind of focuses more on the business aspect of running the hospital rather than medical work.
