A heartwarming slice of life via the experiences of a grumpy pediatrician
Matsushita Kouhei takes us on a heartwarming journey into the life of a pediatrician turned school nurse when he is banned from his hospital until he learns empathy. He has no choice but to succeed in his temporary new position at a local elementary school and greatly improve his bedside manner or he will not be employed as a pediatrician. This drama has a wonderful cast of young actors that bring you into their stories and health conditions. We all get to watch these young children open the heart of the grinch doctor as he learns to take in a lot more than just their ailments. He eventually learns to take notes of their surroundings, family situations and mindset; how the power of the spirit and mind assist in both getting to the source of the ailment and in the healing process. The children educate him in social awareness and their teachers in seeing who they really are through the doctor. This drama brings you to tears and makes your heart full as the stories and experiences are shared and finally understood. The students and professionals head towards graduation with new purpose and insight as the story is brought full circle. I hope far more people will watch this because it is such a wonderful slice of life drama.
