So, unlike Akira-san... Ms Jang in this drama…

So, unlike Akira-san... Ms Jang in this drama did not lose her doc licence and somehow was able to help with the multi-organ ope at the present time. And Dr Do now appears to be manifesting Ebina in this episode, except that in the original, Ebina was the last person to join the ope to help albeit too late - even if he did end up taking the credit for the surgery. And drama was still insistent in making him goofy, in which neither Torii or Ebina was like that outside of surgery. Also for some reason, due to the bad mashup of the Season 1 and 2's closing plot of the original this whole episode went on to become the most generic plot that was unlike the original setting. This drama might as well be calling itself something else entirely, because this is nothing like the original as much as many of the medical cases featured in the original was recreated here.

Ugh. This episode was irritating for several reasons.

First and foremost, as someone with experience with all the technology that is discussed and used in this episode, it is very frustrating to see so many things not just presented wrong, but used incorrectly to move the plot. The first is kind of acceptable but the latter is not. Because when the story is reliant on a tech that fundamentally doesn't work the way the story needs, then it's just magic dust fantasy. And the story should not pretend it isn't a fantasy story. Second of all, Li Xun's anti-social behavior, while is certainly possible, is not really acceptable. Especially because he is causing direct real-world problems for others. Plus, it really begs the question of just how brilliant he is when he can't seem to apply logic to simple social interactions. He's already made several blatantly wrong assumptions of character and even done ethically wrong actions in response to his own wrong assumptions about the FL and others. Harming others for no reason. It is one thing to say, "I don't want be bothered". It is another to harm someone who has not really done you any harm. Leaving aside the fantasy aspects of the virus he created, doing what he did caused real harm to her - she has lost the use of her laptop. All because she did what her instructor has tasked her to do and ask him to turn in his homework? If that is truly a harm-worthy bother to him, and he truly is as smart as he is supposed to be, he should be directing his efforts to avoid being bothered towards the professor, not taking it out on her. Okay I get it. The show was written during the recent phase when every C-Drama ML would start out as a total jerk, "toxic male lead". This is just an extreme version of it. And so we just have to squint our eyes and accept his awful behavior in the hopes that the story will lead him to behaving as someone we can root for later. But it's fundamentally a stupid, annoying plot trope that feels cheap and lazy on the part of the writers.

DELICIOUS!

This episode was SOLID GOLD.Like it made me cry knowing her roommate backstory.Then made me angry seeing that Psycho showing his cruelity on the stage.And then finally it made me smile at the end in the lab. That was so tender sweet.I am so in love with this drama, and the interactions and their actions, show that they are really coming close to each other and are sunshine in each one's life.I am so excited for tomorrow. I need to see Xie Yudi punished in such a way that he can not come back nor think of taking revenge.Also, I liked how that perfume girl came as a saviour for our girls.This drama has all the sauce, and it knows the right amount of sauce when to use and how to use it.And OST is one of those SAUCES, which makes this drama so delicious. Chef's kiss.

Showing off hands on skills🤣💪🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I love this show! It makes me laugh, cry, get angry, jump for joy and yell good and bad things at the screen depending on what’s going on. This episode gives us a bit of Zhuang Ning’s history and the insidious way Xie Yu Di invades her life and makes her cries for help go unheard by everybody. Both faculty and students see her as the problem because of how he weaves the perception. In the end, only the two of them know the real story. Even his friends don’t get it as shown by the charity debacle. Those idiots thought they were doing good for their charity…the idiots. 😝😡 I don’t know what position his dad holds but I know his Uncle is in charge of the group that selected Zheng Yu’s mom for treatment. He wants her to believe he controls the vote.😝 What I am hoping is after Zhuang Ning saw how the perception can shift, is that she recorded his conversation and fills them in on all the rest. Her look of hope as her roomies talked about wanting to find the bullied student and tell her to be brave and speak up. 👏🏻 I loved how Chen Yangzhou volunteered to be the ATM and how he knew Xie was full of crap with his pretense of being taken in by a scammer for medical bills. Nobody knows better than Chen Yan Zhou the lengths she goes to to be beholden to no one and to pay back in full at first opportunity. This shows the degree of difference in the stalker vs the friend. Xie YuDi knew that would humiliate her under the guise of being helpful and sincere.😝🤬 The guidance counselor was puzzled that Zheng Yu mentioned charity being used to turn everybody against her. She still has no clue but the wheels are at least getting dust off and starting to move.😝Perfume girl gets MVP for starting the rumors after she accidentally overheard Zhuang Ning’s story. Her deliberate faces at him made him wonder but not really get it. It is scary that he got into her mom’s room and took photos. 🤬😱 Since he’s a relative of one of the doctors, it won’t even look out of place. He was all about the charity and being a Good Samaritan.🙄🤬Chen Yan Zhou is smaller but damn he flew at him with that first punch. 💪🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Xie Yu Di already knows how to roll with this because getting beat up makes him look even more the victim that was simply trying to help a friend in need. I loved that Chen Yangzhou was more than happy to oblige and the pureness of his heart in defending her was made so clear to his professor.🥰❤️ He couldn’t undo it, but he could damn well make a statement in her behalf that she couldn’t deliver. ❤️👏🏻The brief history they showed of her uncle with the thugs getting her beaten the first night and tossed out from everything she knows. He is on a level even worse than Xie, because his sister had taken care of him and she is family. 🤬 I loved the brother leaving her some cash for the list he took.🥰 I love that this drama doesn’t dress things up and lets things go the course without over embellishing or understating. It takes the messiness of life and bares it with no apology. I love that it shows sisterhood and mutual respect without a lot of the petty angst traps just to provide unnecessary drama. And I love how it displays true drama and tragedy as it is, but as the rainy filter with the sunshine of their hopes and triumphs shining through as they overcome the obstacles. The name of this drama IS the drama and it is so beautifully done by cast, production, music,and exemplary storytelling. 👏🏻❤️🌹👏🏻👏🏻

Four Stars

And it just him, that he doesnt even know if he wants it that bad. Damn. What is tennis? what is the national team if you have no one to spent it with? If he really wanted it his dreams wouldnt be crushed by just a man. That realization that damn, what even is life? Also loved how bay just stopped going to school lmao. And i truly think there is something so beautiful about their beaf being squashed by their childrens love, truly amazing. I dont know how i feel about that ending. i wanted more or i wanted something else, but i dont really know what. But i feel like them playing tennis at their old school and then doing some sus tango and running around was not what i wanted. other than tht and the weird jesus statue sub plot, i quite enjoyed this show. I thought it was a fun nicely paced easy watch. I hope to see these two in another show soon because they are such a fun couple. I also wished we did more with sing and chimon but you know what now i am just being greedy. okay bye!

Serendipity changes fates

Xie Yu Di was conquered by an old phone.🤣😝👏🏻 Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy. He is the epitome of creepy stalker and here is where I am annoyed with Zhuang Ning. She had the perfect opportunity to come clean about the weird message and she still gives the jerk work that takes from the grades of all of them. Zheng Yu’s broom attacks need some work.🤣😂😝 Serendipity has Chen Yan Zhou at the right place to see Zheng Yu wander off. He gets to help her up after she falls down from trying to hit him.🤣😂 They are trying to puzzle out the roomie’s call and what to do while her roomie spent the night apparently working on the reports for the guy that beat her up and locked her in there. She is trying to help protect Zheng Yu but she’s going about it badly. Both girls are stubborn and won’t ask for help.😝🙄 The downside is Chen Yan Zhou gets a cold and they have to spend the night in a clinic. He was just getting to ask her about Xie when her phone rang and he assumed it was the jerk calling back. His surprise is that serendipity gave her a job and she spent most of the night close to him working on it. He should have known when she got them out of Xie’s sight on campus that it wasn’t a good thing with Xie. 🙄😝While jealousy is kinda cute, I want that oversized brain of his to figure it out and get a third party to take care of this jerk before he causes real harm. I don’t know what he has on Zhuang Ning but she needs to get some help. It is aggravating to see both girls doing the silent treatment.🙄I loved every bit of her soaking him with those water balloons and I hope he has some forest crud growing on him that will take him out for awhile. It’s kinda hard to listen to Chen Yan Zhou’s dad talking about heart issues when he’s hiding cigarettes in his glove compartment.😝🙄 I want the girls to get along but Zheng Yu has a point to not lose any more materials to the dirt bag. She knows where their work is going and somewhat of the why’s. I think she felt betrayed that her revenge of the water balloon didn’t rate a comment from her on the bus. She knew Chen’s dad would most likely take him home and was most likely saving a spot for her roomie. This was missed opportunity for them to complete their bond as friends. The other two have no idea what’s going on with them and get brushed off by both girls. The one thing that did come up with all the weird circumstances thanks to Xie’s manipulation attempt, was the declaration of friendship from Chen Yan Zhou. He labels them friends and she doesn’t oppose it. So now we know that Xie also stalks the hospital waiting for her. Both guys are jealous and Xie has made a mistake making his presence known when Chen Yan Zhou is with her mom. He will hopefully start connecting the dots and plans will be made to get this jerk jailed.🤬Xie wants to pout and blame Zheng Yu for liking the rich guy. Just shows how little he knows her. He most likely knows every route she takes and why, but he has no clue who she is as a person. He wants to be the prince on the white charger and he’s lower than the gum on the bottom of her shoe.😝 I don’t think she will ever see Chen Yan Zhou as her savior, she relies on herself for that. But what I do think she is recognizing is an equal that doesn’t care that she’s poor, that respects her intelligence and goads her to up it a notch, and who will support her and assist when called upon. For Zheng Yu, that is an awesome revelation. She is learning to care but not depend on. This is safer ground and yet still brand new to her. I am still wrapping my head around Chen Yan Zhou eating eggs to please his mom and cause himself grief with allergies. He needs to keep his health in line to keep all the concerned grownups at bay. His only way to autonomy from the hovering masses is to prove he can take care of it alone. Right now, he’s not giving it top priority because he’s distracted by his new friend. 🥰 I’m annoyed that the psycho is getting so much screen time but hopefully that means we will be front and center in watching the take down.🤞😡
