I watched this drama when it was airing 11 years ago and loved it, especially since medical dramas are one of my favorite genres. I recently rewatched it and still enjoyed it, but I think people who consider it highly rated should keep in mind that it was made 11 years ago, when storytelling was different and some situations were naturally more exaggerated.
I remember liking the male lead from the very first time I saw him, and his career since then has proved that I wasn't wrong about him being a very talented actor. I also found his chemistry with the female lead, another actress I really like, surprisingly cute, and I think the plot was good for its time. I watch Kdramas the last 17 years and I see a difference in the way they approach a situation. Kissing scenes these days are definitely different than the kisses back then.
What annoyed me the most was the narrow-minded attitude of some of the doctors, because I honestly can't believe that doctors like that exist in real life! And, of course, like many other viewers, I was waiting for that long-awaited kiss, which we deserved even back then!
Am I the only one that does not read Chinese? Is it a list of the winners in English? Also thank you @Dedra70 for having the list in English. I scrolled down to see if any user did it.
It’s really a matter of personal taste. The basic theme is a woman and two men. For me, it’s a light watch that doesn’t require much thinking. The actors do a great job and their performances feel convincing. I don’t see why someone wouldn’t enjoy it if they like this kind of genre. Not everything has to be a masterpiece.
My impression watching up to 3 episode : From the first few episodes, it appears that the male lead initially shows a subtle interest in the female lead, especially in the scene where he describes her as “quirky and cute” with a hint of a smile, However, during his boxing match, the second female lead's distressed reaction seems to shift his emotional focus. He interprets her visible discomfort as concern for his well-being, assuming it comes straight from care or affection. Yet, the way the scene is portrayed suggests otherwise: her reaction likely comes from a trauma response—possibly due to past abuse or having witnessed violence—rather than romantic worry. This creates a significant misinterpretation on his part, as he forms an emotional attachment based on what he believes her reaction means, not its actual cause. I believe his growing interest in the second female lead is built on a false emotional foundation,.I m wondering how solid are the foundation of that possible romantic relationship especially if the truth behind her reaction eventually comes to light and if I remember correctly she did not clarified the misunderstanding when he went right after the boxing match asking her why she reacted the way she did.
We also know that she was abused from her ex boyfriend or ex husband.That s why she left him but he is after her…
I do not remember the exact episode I think 1st , we saw a young man 25-30 with a photo of a girl HJ ‘ s age looking for her. And in episode 3 HJ had this reaction in the boxing match because she had flashbacks from the abuse she suffered.
