I wonder who the UNCLE is? The way they are not reveling his face is making me wonder if he serves as a bigger role than just his mentor. I just read Fandom Wiki and got a bit more information about his character as his maternal uncle.
Probably because he has served as a mentor in Brave Citizen and Reborn Rich - I feel the role could be played by "Park Hyuk Kwon". Anyone knows who it could the actor be?
I'm of the same mind. Some of what I've found is that there is so much time in between seasons (in kdrama land)…
I think with rise of OTT platforms - even American shows have a longer time period inbetween. I remember the time when you had a short wait time for shows like One Tree Hill, Gossip Girl, Supernatural, BBT etc. But now the wait is longer - am currently watching FROM, Severance, The Boys and the wait is killing me (T_T). I mean I'll still watch it but then the wait makes me lose the momentum that was built.
But then I know it is one of the strategies to remain relevant, and have more subsciptions as people will wait and watch their favorite shows no matter how much time it takes. I just wish this formula is not widely used in Asian dramas, given one of the major factor why I gravitate towards Asian entertainment over Western shows is the fact that they provide that instant gratification. The story is complete in those 10-20 episode range, you are satisfied and you can move on to other great dramas.
Coming to "Trauma Code" - thankfully the storyline is such that it can pick up at any point of time and the adventure of our main trio can continue. If done right, it will still deliver the same magic as S1, but yes if there are major changes/long wait time - people would forget the effect S1 one had and latter seasons will have to play catch-up to build that momentum and fanbase. Not always true, but a probability. Given that the makers are saying they had thought out this series to be a multi-season one, I hope they deliver it quickly so that excitement does not break - maybe release it in 6 month cycles.
Let's see how it pans out - I am still in the good hangover of this show - which will last pretty long! :)
Wth wrong with that hair style ..they did wrong with her beauty
ummm - she looks cute to me. And she's had similar hairstyle before too in Secret Life of My Secretary. Rest yeah she's had a pull back (Queen-roles) or side-swept hairstyle.
I LOVE THIS SHOW - but I am also skeptical when series are stretched out to multiple seasons. More shows falter in latter seasons than those that are able to keep the momentum and excitement like first season.
So I really hope 2 and 3 seasons do justice and are as entertaining as Season 1. Cant wait to see what the main leads get upto in the new seasons!
Am oddly addicted to the show - but i think for next season, they should have just one woman and her trying to navigate through multiple guys who want to date her. I mean given how every season, one particular woman is given a main lead energy and gets more screentime, might as well change the format. Le Sigh! at least this way every one will get equal screentime :/
I am not even annoyed by these main characters, given this is what the script would have been for them, but the makers could at least "try" to have equal screentime for all contestants.
Anyways - still going to continue, cause I love drama, in any shape or form XD
he's been having such a good run since 2024, can't wait for more of his projects! He may have been prince in Goong and Kingdom, but truly a King across all his dramas/movies!
Netflix users seem to watch a lot of Korean dramas⦠Many Korean dramas are doing well on Netflix ! If the study…
Netflix marketing is brilliant - I may not always agree with it, but cannot deny how good they are. I mean they are mentioned in case studies in business schools - so really have captured a huge market share since a long time. Korean content is not different either and they are doing increadibly well - which translates into the popularity of the shows on it. Everyone wants to "Netflix and Chill"
Though I think even if they are not on Netflix - Love Scout and Study Group are holding out well, and have their own loyal fanbase, irrespective of the OTT platform's efforts
not possible at this point - cause doesn't seem like she went to that stage with either men: Ji Seok or Jin Goo. Her sickness is just her guilt resulting in anxiety/panic attacks* I think.
Is the Chairwoman's house made of sound-proof walls. For someone trying to pretend to be miss-goody, Se Young screams too much while in the house, even in her room. I get that it is her character and it was makes her antagonisty but now it is a little too irritating -__- | Like you can plot and sabbotage by being quiet too.
Honestly want someone to b-slap her - ideally: Hana, Ji Seok, Jin Goo's mom and Chairwoman.
we knew the plan was bad ..... but the chairwoman it was impossible for her to know that her daughter was murdered…
Possibly because Myeongji was always close to her and perhaps thwarted her attempts at finding her daughter. Which is why possibly inspite all the money at her leisure she could not find her daughter. But then ofc there is a stretch given this is drama - ideally she's shown to be a ruthless and cunning businesswoman so how could she trust myeongji so far and be fooled is a question but then this is how the drama logic takes liberty.
Please do - if you like a medical drama with elements of comedy & action, and carrying emotional / profound message…
YAYYYY! Personally I found S1 to be complete and while I'd love to see the characters again with more adventures, I feel content even with what we have. Cause with multiple season I always have a fear what if the sequel does not live up to S1 and therefore deters others from watching even S1, and what if the wait is too long.
But, but, but - I totally get you and others also - I am still high on how amazing this show was and therefore if they announce S2 I know I'll go crazy (in a good way ofc) š
I loved this drama - but am totally with you. Every person is different and so can their like/dislikes towards…
14 years? Wow - that is incredible, I would love to discuss dramas with you. I am close - 9-10 years of drama watching, and yes, just like you I joined MDL to have healthy discussions - no matter whats the opinion towards dramas/movies/artists.
While the overall experience is positive, I have lately had a fair share of bad ones as well. I personally would like to ignore it but I cannot ignore if someone is being rude/personally attacking. Not sure if the moderators reprimand them once reported - which is why I felt like commenting back to your OP, that hey - we are not alone :)
I honestly hope that people are able to realise and understand that any person disliking a drama does not undermine or erase their fondness for it, OR vice-versa.
Anyways - glad to connect, and yes, 2025 has just started so lets look forward to more dramas/movies and find our favorites, while others become another name in the watchlist (simple)! š
I'm going to be honest. I don't care for the show. Why???? it's trying to be comical, when it's not needed. I…
I loved this drama - but am totally with you. Every person is different and so can their like/dislikes towards drama. I had this kind of case too with When the Phone Rings. I had an expectation mismatch (I went into the drama thinking it would be a suspense thriller with some romance, but apparently it was opposite). And I can relate that it makes you not enjoy it overall cause of that mismatch.
I really hope you do not get any negative comment - but its okay to answer those who are trying to understand. But again you don't need to justify - it is your opinion and you are entitled to it. (I was on that end with WTPR and hence felt like replying to your comment)
While I hope you do go back and watch it, now that you know what to expect - but even if you don't I hope you come across other great dramas this year as 2025 has just begun!
9.1 RATING! YASSS GO BABY! Finally an accurate rating :P | Jokes apart - this drama is just incredible, I hope they continue making dramas like these. And JJH - while has been a fav since Goong days but he's killing it by delivering such diverse dramas/movies back to back from 2024.

Can't wait for this drama to air and watch her and SKJ!
also happy ending - or tragic?
