I just watched episode 1st and yup it is quite predictable and underwhelming 1st episode.
I'm much more interested in mother-son relationship with what happened in those high school days of Noh Eul and Shin Joon. Well that all will be cleared tomorrow.
This Hyped show's 1st episode was actually at best MEH.
It started well but then it lost intensity and then dragged for too long. There wasn't much story to make 16 episodes and director added 2 more to kill all the goodness of the show.
Story was simple and predictable. Even dialogues were meh.
The show shines in 1. Acting 2. Music 3. Presentation of the story. Yup director and writer easily fooled most of the audience.
I might appear harsh but this drama At Best is Mediocre. It is fun watch but doesn't leave much mark into your heart. A Good Timepass and that's all.
Episode 6 is a good episode if you are Interested in Young Oh. There were a few idiotic scenes which you can ignore easily. Concentrate only on Young Oh and you get an awesome episode. Last 11minutes are overdramatic but watching Jang Hyuk pulling off Young Oh's Pain is painful for me.
Funny Enough all those NORMAL people are unable to see Pain of our Young Oh. Jing sung did bad job as a cop but look at the real Cop. He just made faces without much evidence at his hand.
Episode 6 made emotional impact and i'm sure most of the viewers felt it.
WHAT An episode 5 is. I was 75% sure that lackey doctor is the one. Also he is president's right-hand. How come…
It do satisfy few conditions of a melodrama but overall it still need to follow that route.I actually googled each and every medical term and illness mentioned in the show. That +1 for the show. Measuring psychological aspect of a character is better than aiming for the story. Where show did better and forced the viewers to analyse what actually Young Oh's illness is and how it affects his actions/reactions/mindset. By 'Audience' i meant the Time-Slot when both shows are broadcast.
Novice writers who openly mock the IQ of the audience is pretty common in Kdramaworld. As i said earlier Medical aspect is the Base of both shows+ real world business mechanism provides enough reason to compare them.

@shini Melodrama? I think no medical drama should walk that path at all. Beautiful Mind actually forced me to google medical terms and then i learnt something good. If you are watching a medical drama and no clue about any of what is going on then you end up as a nonsense fan. I did the comparison because both shows are competing against each other and targeting same set of audience and even in all the media that's how they are portrayed.
@debis Medical theme is the base and as said above they are actually competing against each other. Also I kept things as much vague as possible Lackey and president is hard to guess.
for senseless entertainment this drama is good. no better than porn. I heard many guys are into Hye Jung. Clear case of Reverse Harem which always happens in stories targeted at female audience. cheap tactic.
Story was too contrived to begin with and rest of the damage is done by forced romance and hell numbers of coincidences. You end up asking yourself is this really a doctor's drama or another generic D GRADE Kdrama crap..
Show title is highly misleading and they should be warned and punished lawfully for fooling the audience aka customers.
WHAT An episode 5 is. I was 75% sure that lackey doctor is the one. Also he is president's right-hand. How come Young Oh expected any fair outcome.
Best scenes are always between Dr. Lee the FATHER and Young Oh the SON.
Those who easily criticize Jin Sung should pay more attention to the whole story. Yup Jing Sung acts recklessly but still calling her names and all is wrong.
5-6 good episodes with good background music support. Our hero got the call of justice to help the citizens of korea. Those looking for romance can find it in the conflict of jang do and Song hee.
I think this is one of the underrated yet good drama of 2016.
I'm on episode 5 and so far it is quite good. It has many errors and coincidences already but you can just accept them as a part of the story. Main attraction are the characters themselves and their relationships.
Let's see how romance unfolds in next few episodes.
Events happen a bit slow still drama is going good ahead and Back ground Music is supporting the actions well. Acting is alright and story makes sense. Also they are doing social commentary on Justice system and how unfair society is.
Romance is subtle and kept minimum and that is another Plus Point.
So much hatred against Jing Sung all around. haha. Let's wait for episode 5 and then make a judgement. Most of the actions of Jing Sung can be explained but rummaging through peoples office and almost all scenes in the hospital shows lousy script from the Writer. Other funny scene is doctors walking behind centre head all the time like bodyguards. Few Inconsistencies needs to be solved to make it more interesting and acceptable
Jang Hyuk has really pulled the character of Lee Yeong Oh. Good thing is there is much more medical terminology used here in 1 episode itself than all 4 episodes of Doctors.
Far better Medical Drama than Doctors. Doctors can't even be called a medical drama.
Also, I think all the incidents leads to Commercialisation of medical field. We know how strong Pharmaceutical companies lobby is. All that research needs to be applied and tested on humans and innocent citizens are pulled into this Money Game.
1st Episode itself speaks about it. Technological innovation of medical field of nation.
Like A Dream - Ben is the maskat of the whole show. Every time there is a key emotional scene and director right away played Like A Dream. Most of the time at the end of the episodes Like A Dream was played. I think even Director recognised what an impact this song made on the audience. Whenever this song was played i became emotional.
So a lot of credit goes to this song for making the show a hit.,
wow Hye Jung loves Ji Hong and Ji Hong runs after Hye Jung to profess the love.
2 episodes and in hardly 2 weeks a love triangle was formed with all illogical events happening around. All the nonsensical events makes you laugh at characters and story than feel empathy for any of them.
Right now show has only Pak Shin Hye's face value to count on.
I like j-doramas more than k-dranas because they are much more realistic and makes viewers self-insert. point 4 and 5 make j-doramas better than kdrama. point 6 is hilarious. fangirls/fanboys always cry over kiss/bed scenes in kdrama and j-doramas not provide sufficient skinship so it is considered negative. many viewers also forget that kdramas often copy storylines from japanese media. kdramas actors don't wear makeup. They basically paint their whole face. Acting is a subjective issue. Cinematography isn't just different style and not something better than j-doramas. Not to mention kdramas usually have nonsense plotlines.
8.7 score. wow . How come someone give this crap of drama that big of score.
I gave it generous score of 6. This is one of the most overrated drama. Actually story setup in 1st 15minutes is good but after that it is all nonsense and nothing else. This is why kdramas are in regressive state. They know whatever they serve audience will happily take it.
Who says this show has no romance. 1st 15 episodes and you can see so many of romantic scenes. One of the best Family Drama i have seen.
It has not your casual Kdrama romance. Here romance and love is subtle and quite innocent and cute. This drama not depends upon kissed and hugs to show you the love. It is shown in characters interaction.
Kim Ok Bin looked so beautiful and acted quite well.
So realistic.Unique story brilliant acting. Awesome dialogues and interaction between characters. I'm on episode 25 now and have given 8.5 to this show.
I just watched episode 4 and i felt it was better than ep 3. Ahn Dan tae and Gong Shim's attaire are quite ohhh. though their colour choice is almost same. I think Director played good here with the couple clothes. But what to do Stroy is so bad that actors are finding it hard to save.
I think Ahn Dan Tae is doing fine job for now and bickering with Gong Shim is fine but rest of it is still pretty bad. Cardboard Cut sister characters doesn't make you feel any better.
It's sad that Ahn Dan Tae has to go with this kind of storyline.
