Unfortunately for him, shes got other plans. (But the preview of episode 7 looks promising with the premises moving back to the hospital and doctors and surgeries, so all is good for now). Never mind that multiple years have gone by and each partner has probably grown and matured in different directions due to different experiences. Sorry, watching 'The Man From Nowhere' last night to see what this whole "Won Bin" thing was about. So, did anyone else feel like the feel-good ending was a little bit forced? cookie : true, // enable cookies to allow the server to access Hoon has some impossible abilities( X ray eyes and hands and super hearing ability like dogs), just like Soo-ha's from IHYV. Lee Jong-Suk as Park Hoon was the highlight of the show. The rest of the plot is centred around two other leadsHan Jae-Joon and Oh Soo-Hyun who are also doctors at the hospital. This website is still under development. In order to ask Chairman Oh to give Hoon another chance, Prime Minister Jang manages to sneak away from the presidents spy during the aftermath of a breakfast hosted for family members separated by the 38th parallel. I have serious doubts that even the writer knows what the plot is, so how do you expect us to? After that, Ill live as Song Jae-hee. Maybe you will like the Good dr as well. 3. How right. What I do like about Seung Hee is that her storyline, whether she's always been a spy, has been brainwashed or she's not Jae Hee at all, by its nature it has to be independent from Hoons. S1.E1 Episode #1.1 In a last minute effort to stop a war between North and South Korea, Doctor Park Cheol and his son Park Hoon are sent to the north to perform heart surgery on the North Korean leader. Foolishly, I was too happy to notice and just typed this along the way. That, or his superpower activated and he detected some sort of cardiac problem in SH necessitating a scan.

If she had amnesia (it has to be right after the bridge, isn't it? Doctor Stranger depicts a medical-intelligence melodrama about a massive conspiracy surrounding a genius doctor born in South Korea but raised in North Korea by the name of Park Hoon (Lee Jong Suk) and South Koreas top elite doctor Han Jae Joon (Park Hae Jin.) Plus he's FIERCELY loyal to JH and it's so OOC for him to be falling for So Hyeon. LOL, yes, Kang So-ra is playing her very well, i admit. If he pursues one side, the other isnt possible. Shes Jae-hee.. I love LJS but if PH is going to spend the entire show running around just trying to find JH, it annoys me. Luckily Nightshade knows whats up, and has a plan to take care of business. js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js"; Hi, at 5.34minutes in this episode, Dr.Han Seung Hee is wearing a wristband. Unfortunately, her designated guy pal Jae Joon is still seemingly lacking any worthwhile characterization and his motivations make him a rather odd one out of the love quadrangle. I would give this drama major kudos if Hoon and Soo-Hyun end up together. How on earth did he know to find Hoon here?! But at some points, the plot I spoke of above, did seem unnecessary and foolish. the reason why a lot of people feel more for soohyun/hoon is because we see them interacting; we see their characters changing because of each other. May wrote, the show 'forces' one to accept their relationship. This might end up like rooftop prince. Doctor Stranger broke my heart because it had a really cool premise and I thought the first episode was great. Seung-hee balls her fist as Hoon listens to the steady sound of their hearts beating in perfect unison. Is it me or does heads pick shows which are very unique and good in the beginning and lose their brains later? in fact, i didn't enjoy it because somehow it felt more unnatural. Soo-Hyun ends up liking Hoon and her journey on that plotline was pretty interesting to watch as well. Urgh. After Prime Minister Jang has a good laugh at the presidents penchant for punctuality (this guy needs to get out more), he asks Nightshade about Seung-heehe wants to see her skills firsthand. On the other hand, in the other pictures as Han Seung Hee, Jin Se Yeon pulls off a perfect transformation by having the chic look down while wearing a doctors gown. Seo Ji Hee Song Jae Hee [Young] Guest Role Composer Kim Jang Woo Trending Articles Netflix shares their statement regarding the upcoming projects of Yoo Ah In in the platform News - Feb 24, 2023 Netflix finally gave a statement regarding the upcoming K-dramas and films of Yoo Ah In on their platform. I don't think so since characters coming back from the death is not as sacred as "a woman can only kiss one guy in her entire drama life" dogma of Kdrama plus we have to deal with "First Love" too which is like the TROPE to trump all other tropes. Whenever Seung-hee passes by Hoon there is this dramatic editing with slow motion and dramatic music that forces us to believe in their relationship. but nope, it doesn't mean I want a PH/Soohyun end game. So here it is anyways: I actually find that Hoon being in love with Jae Hee as more potent and teeming of narrative possibilities, that there is more depth into it to be explored other than the superficial 'first love', if the show chooses to do so. It's the writing/directing/show I'm talking about. Oops. There goes my weekly dose of Doctor Stranger and discussing it with all the wonderful people here. To be fair for JSY and her character(s), Jae Hee is more of a plot device than a fully realized character, and Seung Hee gets held back a lot for the sake of being mysterious. I mean, come on. how many people are there who are trying to achieve something. Add to it, I kept thinking LJS and Kang Sora will get together because they had real chemistry not the leads but no. Sumedha spends her days reading books, bingeing Kdramas, drawing illustrations, and blogging while listening to Lo-Fi music. IHYV (2nd lead female turns good towards the end only). This drama was a mess. http://gizmodo.com/5884650/your-heartbeat-could-be-your-password, This sentence in that article though is the killer "..You will never get the same exact timing of beats twice", I kept getting SLS -_- Why, though? I dropped it as soon as I reached the part where Park Hoon meets his old flame at the hospital like.. why? In reality, how many of us have looked back to past boyfriends or old flames and asked ourselves (What did I see in him/her at the time?). To me, the hero has always loved one person. I remember looking forward to each episode every week it came out. I did not see joy when she was supposedly happy and didnt see her upset when she was supposedly sad. - How is it that he's able to flit b/n N Korea and S Korea so easily? i only feel sad for the puppy fiancee. also. Whenever things went wrong in his head, he started over until he was sure that he can perform the surgery successfully. This is where the . next monday is waaaay to far away. I like both Hoon and Soo Hyun as characters and they are the easiest to root for in the show, by far. 4. Doctor Stranger will airs its first episode on May 5, with writer Park Jin Woo, who wrote the robust script that PD Jin Hyuk, who is a magician of this complex genre, will demonstrate in the drama. She's just a doctor, not THE doctor stranger. I already wish this show will defy convention and make Soo Hyun the lead lady. How was she saved in time because she was shotandshe was in the water? Chairman Oh reminisces about Soo-hyuns mother fondly, claiming that, despite everything, his feelings for her mother were genuine. But she must have a reason to behave that way, did she turn her back to join force with the evil for revenge, is she trying desperately to protect Hoon in her way, either way I hope the writer will develop her story more in future eps. You deserve an extraordinary show to recap after putting up splendidly with all this crazy ones . Take Vick (IRIS) who was played by TOP and Kim (Two Weeks) by Song Jae Rim or even Ryu Tae-oh (Gap Dong) by Lee Joon, these characters also fall under the same cold murderous villain archetypes, they too wear almost the same facade all the time. I watch Kdrama for almost a deccade since I was in elementary, and I believe that this drama is lacking in writing but full on swing when it comes ti acting. The first few episodes were good but the rest left such a bad taste in my mouth. well, no i dont need that. No matter how this ends up, we all know I'll be watching the entire series because urgh, LJS and his awesomeness - I can't resist that. it just breaks my heart and, sorry to all the Soo-hyun/Hoon OTPs out there, but stop trying to make Soo-hyun/Hoon coupling happen, it's not going to happen. A great majority of them only do one or two dramas a year, using the time between those dramas to recharge, reaccess their performance and evaluate how they can improve themselves. In this episode, Jae Hee also told Soo Hyun that Hoon is the reason why her father died. That Hoon killed her father to save her and shes not sure anymore if she can still continue loving him despite all the things that happened between them. And Jae-Hee is still making no sense - aside from the fact that brainwashing is largely a myth, why is she pretending to be someone else? This gives Jae-joon another chance to butt heads with Hoon as he claims that anything could happen when a patient is as old as Chang-yis mother, though he credits the surgical success to the anesthesiologists excellent preparation. it's okay, I am not invested in her character at all either. He comes across . 239 Views. Like I've said before, not telling something that is not important or plain obvious is not equivalent to a plot hole. But now that Hoon is back in the hospital and Chairman Oh is under Prime Minister Jangs thumb, Seung-hee claims that everything is going to plan. She did not donate one. Can't she be killed already? While not a focus point, it influences Hoons life and its addition made the show more interesting. Messing it up! I think I made it through 4 episodes before I couldnt anymore. When a horrendous traffic accident creates chaos at a local hospital, Park Hoon winds up preforming an unlicensed surgery to save a dying father. We watched three episodes with my friend and then kist gave up: the plot was all over the place and straight down ridiculous, and also we didn't feel anything between the two leads . Though these questions surrounding Seung Hees identity is at the forefront of the shows current plot point, what continues to intrigue me more is the equally confusing Big Mission that must involve Hoon. There were so many elaborate plots and set-ups for a seemingly small thing. When Hoon tries to follow her, Soo-hyun has to physically hold him back. 170 Views. appId : '127538621120543', Rate. Jae-hee is alive. Of course, Soo-hyun called her over so that he could apologize to her, only now hes too drunk to do much of anything. The plan goes awry and Hoon crosses alone. He asks her if she recognizes it, since its the same one he made for her when they first metbut his questions are answered with outrage, as Seung-hee accuses him of stealing what she gave to the patient. I just donotlike the way Seung-Hees character was written and directed. For me it has always been more of the "Don't forget you're a doctor" part that I want more of, instead of "I NEED MY ONE TRUE LOVE". The OST "Stranger" by Bobby Kim is italian chef kiss though. The show is forcing us to believe in the Hoon-Jaehee relationship but not showing us enough about WHY we should believe in it. How much emotion can she really bring to the table? Therefore, JSY fails to deliver a complex role that can peak my interest. This video is currently unavailable. And for a spy who should imitate after someone, wouldn't she have already seen that video and practiced all she needs even before coming over to SK? I didn't read the plot or anything, just dived right into it. Heartbeats are not like fingerprints. i thought this drama was more how hoon get in a love traingle and how succeeds as doctor not about conspiracy about every old man that is in this drama.. and that thing with the heartbeat is also really how should i put it, dense?? in the sense, yes, i acknowledge they're in a relationship; but no, i don't feel invested in their relationship. I kept trying to like her, or at least be meh about her because she was Hoons love (assuming shes Jae-Hee) and I liked Hoon. LJS might has a contract that he only plays roles with super abilities!
