LOL! Is it like that? I've just started, and I thought they'll stop with the Dr batman on his batmobile in the…
I found that scene ridiculous as well, they could just show him in a war zone with bombs and shootings in the background at some still relatively close distance from him while he rides his bike to a patient, that was highly reckless of him but i guess the writter wanted to highlight and portray him as in many other scenes as a great and selfless Dr. that puts his patients always first. Well they stop with that Dr. Rambo stuff untill the last episode where there is a very short car shooting scene where Dr. Superhero endangeres his medical staff to save a patient who was in the car and needed imediate treatment. Most of the episodes took place in the hospital(with some helicopter rides and on site missions) and are about trauma cases with surgeries performed by Super Hero Dr. Baek, he is portrayed as a super skilled doctor that can perform with full confidence any type of complex surgery in any medical field and in record time while making no mistakes and making any Dr. around him look like a complete amateur, stealing the spot lights on numerous occasions throughout the show. Eventhough everything goes his way and other characters in this show are there as a tool to portray how great the ML is, the show is engaging and you won't get bored. I found it ridiculous at times but i didn't get bored as it's a fast paced show where something always happen.

They could just show him riding his bike with explosions or a background of a warzone a little more far away not neceseraly bullets and bombs firing near him one after another like he has a target on his head but it doesn't matter anyway because writer has his back. Writer wanted to highlight how great and admirable he is that he's puting his life in danger and defying any high probability that he could be killed by a bomb or bullet there. That was just reckless. But that's on me, it's a personal preference, i like more realistic shows with original writting and story telling that doesn't rely on making someone extraordinary and have anything going his way just from the pen, or making someone extremely rich, super handsome CEO or a heir to make for a story.
I was really surprised that in last episode Super Hero Baek didn't perform surgery on himself! Or wake up in the middle of Jae Won performing surgery on him, and continue himself from there if Jae Won didn't knew what to do next. Maybe one of the few chances missed in this show by writter to make Super Hero Baek even more godly.
he didn't have 100% rate and based on a REAL good doctor and written by another real doctor
''based on a REAL doctor'' doesn't mean much to be honest, that doesn't mean that each event depicted in the series took place, with exact types of surgery, difficulty level and time in which they were performed. I can belive there was a real doctor Baek with a tatoo on his hand that was in some peace organisation and treated people in syria or was in some private army in afganistan and then came back to south korea to work in a hospital, eventhough i didn't find much info online about him. But that's about how far it goes.. the rest of the events are all hyped up and exagerated for cinematic value and to make them interesting for the ''in search of extraordinary seeking viewer''. It's just that people love SUPER HEROES and producers/writers know that, it's entertaining right? Usual people are boring :( Never mind... i read more into it and i retract what i've said. Dr. Baek is a fictional character created by novel writer Dr. Lee Nak Jun also known as Hansanleega, so the writer has medical background but Dr. Baek character is entire fictional. Even with the writer beeing a real Dr. ; Liver transplant in 30 minutes? Please, even the most straightforward liver transplant takes place in at least 6 hours.
Made it to ep.5 but...at this point, why didn't the writters just make him god, shoot laser through his eyes and walk on water as well. Well.. i don't mind an over powered written character as long as i know i'm watching a fantasy drama, but from the begging we see our ML speed running a warzone dodging bombs and explosions left and right. Just lucky i guess, right? So the writters working overtime on this character to make him as cool as possible.. He EVEN pilots an HELICOPTER making the Pilot-in-command look like an amateur, that for some reason gives him the controls of his helicopter. AMAZING! I screamed out loud ''HOW COOL IS THIS GUY!'' I guess everyone is a sucker for such a character in kdrama land... it just works as everyone is in awe and producers know this. So our ML is an all knowing all mighty trauma surgeon, who does open heart surgeries, brain surgeries, also an orthopedic surgeon who casually enters the operation room and cracks the case while the orthopedic surgeon performing, making him look like an amateur. Guess our ML had to be the star of the show in this instance as well. No chance making him look cool is wasted in this show! He is everywhere! One of the ''antagonists'' has something on him and he's ready to reveal... Writters on HIGH ALLERT WATCH followed by high urgency meeting! ''How do we get him out of this but on the same time still make him look even cooler?'' ''Even cooler than that? Is that possible? ''YES'' says one of the writters: Let's randomly introduce the ''antagonists'' daughter in the ecuation and randomly make her suffer a sudden severe life threatening accident. Sure thing!'' Transfer her to the same hospital as well not a different one, is has to be this one! Said and done. So invoking the case's severity and urgency, ML performs once again open heart surgery denying patient's father wishes, as well as an opinion/intervention from cardiothoracic surgeon who's only role was to be there and confirm ML's greatness and hypothesis in awe, ''IT'S HEART RUPTURE INDEED''. But everything works out in the end when the ML surgeon is written with a 100% sucess rate. Also every Surgeon and MD in this drama is in full NPC mode, so ML can shine brighter than a quasar. Some MDs in this show even straight up refuse responding to calls trying to dodge urgencies which is hard to belive they can legitimately do in a field like medicine. Even Dr. Han the head of general surgery looks like a complete amateur when performing surgery with the ML apparently not knowing to do basic stuff, becomes increasingly nervous behaving like a junior in his first surgery, what a joke. So judging on how well recieved and how highly rated this drama is, i suppose they must be doing something right. It's just not my idea of a well written story or characters.
that he's puting his life in danger and defying any high probability that he could be killed by a bomb or bullet there. That was just reckless.
