Is this like those proper dramas vs idol dramas? It sounds like it will be propaganda- like.

I ask because I don't want people to be killed off. Otherwise happy to watch it.

There is something I can't work out. Did Prince Rui do his marital duties that night or not?

I have watched the scene and can't work it out. Thanks.

So this drama is getting better after very slow 17 episodes. They should have consolidated the first 17 episodes…
Nope. I like the pace. I don't want everything cramped and rushed.

I've almost reached the end for ep 20. Spoilers have told me its going to be an important scene.

Sigh.

Its a 40 episode drama. The ML having an epiphany in ep 19 is about when most dramas hits an important section where the romance should culminate in a declaration.

Technically the writer would have done well if they wrote a good solid 2nd ML. So you guys are bagging the writer or the male lead?

Isn't that what a writer should do? You and I know that no drama is complete without angst and a 2nd lead.

However its bad enough that I have to pause and take a few days until I can face the fallout. Its bad if he becomes vindictive. Its bad if he is sad. Its bad if she recovers her memory and rejects Lu Chang.

Either way its bad from ep 21 onward with the Prince Yu, the father, the amnesia, for Xing Zhao.

So I need a break. BROTHER. The stress. Poor me. I like the 2nd ML so I need a break.

If it’s around the 1:20 mark, the left is Wen An Xian Zhu (Princess), middle is Ming Shu, and right is Shu Jun
The girls except for the female lead has very, very heavy foundation and eyelashes make up. Honestly man. I can tell she has plastic surgery. The problem isn't the surgery, it's the MDL photos for the actress.

You just put my thoughts into words...! !Agree 100%Ku do won, is so atypical in terms of a Kdrama ML. Yes! But…
I swear the whole Reply, Hospital Playlist and now Resident Playbook write really nice characters. I have been having so much in gushy obsession over various characters there than in other dramas.

I was pretty much dying over the 2ML An Chil Hong and his backstory in S1. Then there was no one in particular in S2. I think it was the 3rd couple- the Ob Gyn couple.

The other characters are nice in Resident Playbook. Personable, has depth to their character but some just ooze screen presence. That's Jung Jun Won. I hope he has a good ending story by ep 12. I am unsure if I can support yet another season of the Hospital franchise. I've already rewatched 3 meals a day: doctors several times.

Thanks. I couldn't recognise her based on her profile photo on MDL.

The 2ML only had like a 5 minute screen time with her. Not enough for you to be so upset.
Honey, you are the one who sound aggrieved. This is a drama forum. This doesn't even constitutes an argument. My reply now might be but only to point out that others have a right to reply. I don't have to agree with you and I am fine with it.

I am only replying because you wrote " get a job dude. "

Snort. I am on annual leave... so yeah, I am on MDL for relaxation. Did you see how you replied to the others? You stated your opinion and you cannot accept anyone who disagrees with you. Aggressively.

By the way I do have enough self control after this and I will not reply. It was the " get a job dude " that made me irritable. That sounds so juvenile. Also Ham Jong Won is listed as a guest role and not even a secondary casting. The episode was almost 1hr+. He really does have only 5 minutes or so alone time with her. He doesn't even make it to the 2nd lead. He is a colleague passing by. They had another anaesthetic doctor in the earlier episode.

Also, a 2nd male lead has to actually pursue the girl or stay within her circle to spend time with her. Ham Jonn Won- can't even remember his full name- hasn't.

So the whole original post was a generalisation. I just added to my reply. Yeah yeah yeah I am on leave, I had time and I type fast. I am off to watch Serendipity.

Hope your Monday is going well. I am totally chilled now that I replied and going off on to my day. And oh the main writer for HP 1 and 2 did not write this. Its the junior writer. You did not see how I blasted episode 1. The episodes has improved from ep 5.

Who is the 3rd girl in the opening sequence song? When the 3 ladies are together? Thank you. I have stared at the cast photos and still can't find her.

Kyah. I just rewatched the dinner scene from the residents lounge till the preview. It was after 1am today.That…

This is a better translation than the other MV with the Hangul romanisation. I only went searching for it yesterday after I noticed the lyrics. I just thought it was a nice song until it came on yesterday and in episode 6.

Kyah. I just rewatched the dinner scene from the residents lounge till the preview. It was after 1am today.

That was some masterful directing. So much on point with the timing. Ku Do Won didn't even think it was odd he even thought it was ok to6 hug her in public. He asked if it was ok, not that he was going to refuse.

Nice. Nice. NICE,

Then when he turned his head to look at her after the alarm and his heart was in his eyes. My god. I swooned all over again this morning. Gosh, one thing the whole franchise excel at is at casting. If I could do cartwheels I would.

Did you guys notice when the OST 6 soundtrack cuts in? That wasn't the first few lines of the song by the way. I haven't paid attention to the lyrics until last night. Then I went back to the ending of ep 6 and caught it again. I was mad over the songs in the Reply 1997.

What the Reply and Playlist franchise did so well is putting the OSTs in at the correct moment. I am sure a lot of you know that the lyrics in a lot of Kdramas are as good as the drama lines right?

Ok. I am a happy viewer this morning. I am content to wait till next weekend. Ku Doo Won is not even the standard 180cm chiseled features Korean drama lead like in most other Kdramas but by golly he just oozes charisma and charm. Pity I have never seen a senior resident as charming in real life.

Resident Playlist has finally settled into the groove from episode 4. It took awhile but its definitely picked up the rhythm. I would rewatch this just for the cameos and Ku Do Won alone. I am pretty much in love with his voice and personality at present. And oh the actor too. He looks so young. He was 35 years old at that time right? He looks really good.

Excuse the gushy post. It might be the first one this year. No other drama character except The Love Scout has made my heart skip a beat this year.

Couldn't even make it through the first episode...😴😴😴 this is no Hospital Playlist. Sorry.
Its better. I dissected episode 1 because it was actually totally not like HP.

The cameos alone are fantastic and worth continuing. The cameos are SERIOUSLY good. They integrated them into the story. The couples in HP are there. My heart hasn't quite recovered from seeing An Chi Hong and Lee Ik Sun. I didn't realise how much I miss them. I seriously missed them.

Episodes wise- the writing improved. Grew tighter. The acting and directing has always been there but the writing improved a lot. Episodes 7 and 8 are comparably as good as Hospital Playlist.

The only thing currently that is irritating me slightly are the Netflix subs. Missing or changed words here and there. The scenes and dialogues are so much more natural if you can understand Korean.

It's still enjoyable for me but I don't think the SML part was necessary. Do Won is a mature man he doesn't need…

Can someone who've watched Ep8 tell me if they're going to drag out the romance or do we have some sort of a closure?.…
Ep 8 is a good episode. Episode 9 should be the clincher based on the ending for ep 8.

And OIY being so clueless it hurts! 😂🤦‍♀️ He did too good of a job convincing her he wasn't interested.…
The romance is on. Didn't you see her smirk? When he said the in laws were going away. A guy wouldn't say it if he wasn't involved. And she wouldn't look like the cat that got into the cream otherwise.

She also recognises his look at the bus stop.

Let me take a moment to smirk like Yi Young did in the preview.

How did teddy bear suddenly turn on a switch and acted like a man and the tension just went through the roof?

Jung Jun Won is amazing. He expresses so well with just the tiniest voice tone change, posture and his eyes. My God.

Can someone post and tell me what happened to County Princess Wen? I want to follow the viki upload but its like 8 episodes behind. I have other things to do this week so won't watch it on the streaming channel.

I can wait for the Prince Rui story. I just wanted to know about the Wei Xi story that's all. Thank you.

Er yeah there are at least 2 Kdramas where the 2nd lead ended up with the girl. Google it
You wanted a drama where the chemistry with the 2nd lead was so good they got the girl. I can't remember all of them but one of them was Park Shi Hoo I think.
