Well ofc alcohol intake is gonna increase considering the economy change, work culture, borderline dystopian country, beauty standards and social pressure, highest depression, mixed with media heavily marketing alcohol such as Soju being part of Korean culture and binge drinking that would put anyone in hospital being socially acceptable and sometimes shown as good cool quality.

Alcohol in this show is not shown as critique or comment on society bad habbit but embraced and ever present with many plot moving scenes that don't need it. It's promoted to consume and enjoy. It's lazy plot moving device to create and resolve scenes and easy sponsor money paired with mediocre writting.

It's obvious alcohol is present because beer and soju is their biggest sponsor. It's legit present in every episode and ridiculous.

Only research producers did is the quickest route to the bank.

For which they needed alcohol 🤣

I am not sure if I am more impressed by breakup speedrun or amount of scenes with drinking they forced in.

Now we have entered into dragged out slump until last episode rushed ending.

It's also cheaper if younger not well known actor does the scenes.

That beer and soju company must have funded whole show. Scriptwritters are starting to sweat to come up with scenes to force into every episode.

This was also news to me because basically everywhere in EU in public and homes there is central heating and I think Korea is overall colder then many of countries I've been in that has such heating.

What do you expect from a site that rates some cdramas 9+ that have 80% garage level standing green screen scenes with bad obvious cgi and characters who talk and act like first graders combined with dubbed voices and awful sound mixing.

Having different opinion is not being a hater. What we both did there was mostly asuming and I gave no misinformation.

Having anything else but limited company at this scale combined with how famous he was presented and giving all the money to the family before court was just stupid and logistic wise impossible to execute in the time presented on the show. Since he is plastic surgeon this is probably his first death and I can play along that it might hurt him a lot but it's legit impossible to sell off all those assets in such time and also break active contracts. I can understand feeling guilt but he knew he was setup tho or should have known if he was consistent character based on vial, excessive bleeding and videos conveniently missing.

Also victim was murdered I didn't say in the eyes of the law with current evidence for characters in the show, I was talking in general sense as 3rd party observer.

Laws, order of things, burden of proof and doubt, also vary based on the country.

ML as character is just written very inconsistently to fit the way the writter want the story to go even tho it is nonsense sometimes. He is conveniently smart and at the top when needed yet blind and gullible when needed for the plot. Same goes for many technical, medical and law aspects but show is enjoyable if you ignore it.

He will notice he is shady when it's convenient for the plot to do so.

Except in this case reason why patient died is legit and clearly because of anesthesiologist. Even in series they say the cause of it.

Anyway the way things went down with him paying out all the money to family, closing clinic, anesthesiologist bailing, etc.. yet procedings are still happening is absurd and don't try to convince me otherwise. Also even if he lost the case no way he would need to sell off personal assets. Just close down limited company and go bankrupt in worst case unless they have very big proofs to extend it to perso al assets. Which also don't make sense since he is like top surgeon and famous or something to not have money to settle.

Being lead surgeon doesn't mean someone else in room can straight up murder a person and it's your fault.

It's just writters wanting specific stuff to happen but they can't ground it to reality because whole premise is medically and from law standpoint a complete nonsense paired with kdrama nonsense.

Basically turn off your brain or you won't enjoy it.

Netflix

U wish.. most kdramas put all resolve in last episode so it feels both slow with mid episodes and rushed because everything is showed to the end.

Why does this have 20 episodes and duration of 1-3hr per episode ?

They need to edit this down and cut ton of filler.

This is something assistant editor would bring as starter to then work on. Some people may enjoy this for the rawness but it can be improved a lot with better production to make it more watchable for larger audience.

It's as if you found mad scientist secret tapes where they experimented on participants and viewers mental health.

No, the writers are.

I don't think kdrama writters can write a show without excessive amount of drinking that would end anyone IRL in hospital with tube down their throats, especially if they are sponsored. They also can't move many plots forward without drunk scenes or temporary memory loses.

It is enjoyable drama if you can ignore brain dead execution and logic of how medicine, technology and laws work.

For medical and law dramas u need to turn your brain off more then usual 🤣

Most people don't know how to deal with people when they hear they are depressed. Acting so abnormally happy around her and treating her different only makes it worse.
