You speak a lot of sense.

Why aren't you complaining about the clown president? He's the one that overacts.
Kim Min-jung's character is fine. She's just a villain.

The editing of Episodes 21 and 22 was worse than usual but I'm still enjoying the show very much. The leads are so lovely to watch. The push and pull makes more sense than most. Plus I like the dealing and double dealing in the background. It's one of the better things I've seen since Imperial Coroner.

In some ways I find her arc the most interesting because her growth is the most palpable. Everyone else has been already been at the scheming and conspiring. But she's the novice who is finding her feet and learning the game as she goes along. To her credit she learns fast. Her loyalty to Qi Yan is also grounded on her own logical assessment of the situation not some kind of blind devotion. The fact that she has no expectations of being romantically involved in him is really very admirable.
I may be in the minority on this but I like her more than I like Yanzhi.

Overall is not a bad watch. The cases alright and had some degree of complexity to them. The procedural side of things was okay. The romance was supposed to "save" Qin Min from going over to the dark side, wasn't that well-written even if the chemistry of the leads was decent enough. It felt completely unnecessary. I was a lot more interested in his relationship with his father to be honest.
Because of the budgetary factors most probably, it's the weakest of the four Dr Qin dramas that I've seen so far. I really like Zhang Yujian though.

Episode 9 was pure joy. The antics of all the doctors at the table tennis tournament were really to die for. Loved how they featured the emergency staff and the neonatal nurses. Relieved that Jun-wan knows the truth. Thankful for more confirmation that the bear couple are a goer. Enjoyed the duet between Ik-sun and Ik-jun.
There wasn't a single thing that I didn't like.

I know right. I was killing myself laughing.

I'm of two minds about watching this. I like what I see in the trailers but I'm not sure we need another Tian Long Ba Bu. Besides the comments here aren't inspiring much confidence. My first was the HK version of a bygone era and I didn't mind the Jimmy Lin one.

A pleasure.

Thank you. It's kind of you to say so.

That was beautifully executed. Especially the voiceover where he's talking to his dead brother.

It really is a good show and worth watching. Personally I love the romance but it is much more than the romance. There are a lot of aspects to it and it only gets better.

Thanks!

It's on my blog.

My final review of the show under spoiler tags.

You'll get there soon enough. She comes up after Episode 18.

I understand your point but I also understand his dilemma. He's playing a dangerous, high stakes game and he wants to protect her. But then he can't help himself because she is the only person in the whole world who really gets him. It's very attractive to a man who's been wandering in the desert for a very long time and thirsty for affection.

The ex-flame. They were betrothed to each other years ago.

I agree. And I think the crux of the issue is also the fact that nobody except for Cheng Ruoyu undestands Qi Yan or Prince Guang. They think they know him and his agenda but ultimately their perception is entirely wrong. Which means that their strategies don't work against him either.
