Playbook vs Playlist
I watched Resident Playbook first. For me its all about the acting. The main cast was a pleasant surprise for their chemistry and antics and character development. I learned a lot about the OBGYN challenges faced by expectant mothers and how they were dealt with medically.The last episode where Dr. Chu and Yang exploded onto the set as pure enjoyment. It has set the stage for a sequel that I encourage to happen quickly. Ahn Eun Jin is one of my favorite actresses. May she get the female lead role.
I then circled back to watch Hospital Playlist. I found it dragged a lot. I knew Eun Jin did not have a large part. I was disappointed with her onscreen time. Now I understand the evolution of Dr. Chu that ties into the RP episode 12 appearance.

Powerful and Captivating
The script flowed well. Excellent character development. Both female leads delivered great performances. At times the characters leap out of the screen and into my living room. The portrayal of the production company was very realistic.I admire Park Ji Hyun for portraying such a damaged Cheon Sang Yeon so well. She deserves a best actress nomination. Kim Go Eun is a perfect complement to her. Kudos to the casting choices.
The script takes some of life's most stressful events in our lives . The cast delivered the depth of emotion to create an awesome journey towards healing ones soul.

Unpredictable events
I am saturated with K drama that is so predictable in its outcomes, that I found this story to be refreshing and full of surprises. I did not take one bit seriously. Afterall it is a fantasy.I did not expect Suzy as an auto mechanic. Her acting is better than she seems to be getting credit for. Her subdued emotionless aura is authentic. Her psychopathic outbursts were comedic not scary (its a fantasy). For me seeing Suzy acting is a pleasure worth waiting for.
Ahn Eun Jin's (young grandma) appearance on the set was the best highlight of the series for me. Her positive energy and pure joy for her newfound life was wonderful . Thank you for your contribution.
Given the production and directorial challenges faced , Genie Make a Wish is worth viewing.
