They were fun and able to point out some discrepancies or inaccuracies here and there but weren't overly critical, either. They all seemed nice!

Trauma Code felt even more fantastical than this drama, to me, but it is a fun ride. Not realistic, but entertaining, for sure. :)

Also, I think they exaggerated the ineptitude of the first years to emphasize their growth by the end if the drama (which does certainly happen). I saw it as a storytelling choice, not necessarily an attempt to showcase the medical field accurately. 😉

I mean, dramas can't even portray high school accurately, so they definitely won't get a hospital right. 😏

Agree, the music gets distracting, which means it is not great! 😅

I don't sense a good ending for Wei Yan or Bi Zhi... 😬 Even Wei Liang... I think the MC has plot armor, though. It seems they'll be fine.

F4 😅

I guess it depends on the little brothers and big sisters. 😉 I think movies and entertainment (especially in Western media) for a long time always portray younger brothers as annoying. Kids grow up watching that stuff and fall into those roles; not a lot of media show siblings as close, especially siblings of different ages.

I like that dramas do that less. I've noticed Cdramas have a lot of sweet sibling relationships in costume drama; I've wondered if maybe they're more sentimental about siblings in China because so many of the younger generations don't have any? 🤷‍♀️

After watching dramas with romance, the romance between couples in movies now feels so fast and based on so little. 😅 Movie romance rarely offers the satisfaction the build of a couple's arc carefully crafted over many episodes can give.

I bet is the ones who may not survive are Bi Zhi and/or Wei Yan. Bi Zhi is too sweet ans naive and Wei Yan too troubled to be content anywhere.

On a rewatch. Love this drama!

However, one episode that still confuses me is the episode where Xiao Heyun gets stabbed and they're running from the police. Why bother? They can just sleep and start the next loop. Anyone else figure out why they get all worked up about being chased and prolong that loop for (in my eyes) no apparent reason?

Very interesting--thanks for sharing!

The cliff always makes an appearance at least once in a costume Cdrama, as does the white truck of doom in a melodramatic/action Kdrama. 😅

Yes, thanks for the helpful info! 👍

I mean no offense, but may I offer an unspoken MDL etiquette suggestion? When many of us post on MDL and get into long dialogues that last more than a few responses and which include a lot of text, we often try to put our posts as "spoilers" so they don't dominate the comment section and make it harder to read the thread (cause the spoiler comments take up less room) or we chat through Messages instead, which is a private chat feature. Just wondering if you and @DareDaniel would consider doing this for future conversations of this kind? It's not even too late to do it for this convo. 😉

You have to subscribe as well, yes? What are the other three platforms?

Ah, I've never heard of it until recently. Is it another platform that legally streams dramas like Viki?

Yes, that's what she seems to want people to think. But we find out in Episode 15 or 16 that it's actually fake.

I don't, sorry! Are there any other medical dramas you've seen successfully before?

Thank you! 😊

It seems like in this drama, though, it's implied she was born with it (thought it's a lie)?

Viki in the U.S. is behind on posting episodes compared to whatever most people on here are using, so I'm seeing things here before I get to watch them. I've been frustrated by the rubberbanding of their relationship, the constant two steps forward three steps back as far as trusting each other; I'm at 16, and since 13 it's been nice, but now I am worried about Episode 20. I'm afraid I'll get too angry to continue... There's a fine line between character arcs/growth and angst for the sake of angst...this drama has toed the line a few times and I won't be able to handle much more...
