Hoon brushes him off with his usual cavalier attitude, and asks if Jae-joon means he has to steer clear of the quack., Thats when Jae-joon grabs him by the lapels, all but growling into his face that he cant call Soo-hyun a quack. That is not to say that there is already definite proof to confirm that Jae Hee is Seung Hee after all, not quite yet, nor do I believe that Park Hoon will be getting any concrete evidence this early on either. It's a good thing there were Dr. Quack & Hoon cute scenes to give my little brain a break, and just when I started feeling torn between Jaejoon and Hoon (for Sohyun), he showed his greedy side and that stopped me from liking him too for Sohyun.

I love to see that identity conflict, but there better be a damn good reason behind it, most especially if Jae Hee is willing to shed everything that made Hoon (and I) love her character to become the glum Seung Hee that she is right now. Say if a couple is married right from the beginning of the drama, are they supposed to convince you that the couple is indeed in love before moving on to other parts of the story?

What did you think of Doctor Stranger? Its cute how Soo-hyun tries to cheer him up by asking him about his life, only Hoons memories of his parents are unhappy oneslike his father getting shot, and his mother never caring. The plan goes awry and Hoon crosses alone. Profile. Agreed. They both really do fit together and Jae Joon really likes her. Just look if there's a scar. How right. 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. Its not realistic, especially since it happened ALL THE TIME.

There's no logical reason to love someone in kdrama anyway. I think one big problem with the Hoon-Jae-Hee/ Seung-hee relationship is that we have not really see them interact.

On a side note, I love soohyun. It was a bittersweet moment for sure but they left the bridge united once more - when Hoon mentioned his regret at having let go in Hungary it just seemed right that that marked an ending of sorts. The series premiered on Tue May 06, 2014 on SBS (KR) and A Happy Ending (S01E20) last aired on Tue Jul 08, 2014. . I have mixed feelings about it because of those random pointless things.

When the show first started, I was going to be ambitious and keep a list, but after ep3 I simply gave up. Director Jin Hyuk previously directed Brilliant Legacy (2009), City Hunter (2011), Master's Sun (2013). I also felt the 'hanging over the bridge' drama was overdone - it was pretty gutwrenching in Episode 2 but repeating it just seemed a little cheesy and took away from the gravity of the original scene. A lot of her facial expressions are inscrutable; I don't think it's because of the actress or anything, but she's probably given the same amount of information we are so she's not really able to express a hell of a lot, just in case the writer goes a different way~! I am too invested in the show's otp since the 1st ep. I did not feel anything between the two leads either, I honestly thought they'd not end up together while thinking Kang Sora was female lead.

But I just couldnotlike her how much ever I tried. Doctor Stranger broke my heart because it had a really cool premise and I thought the first episode was great. That's like drama speak of "you're never getting with the male lead, girl!"

Father and daughter share a moment as she sheds a few tears in his arms, and hes sweet enough to even wipe away her tears. sad to say that "Mok Dan" (cuz I havent bothered to remember her real name) is continuing her streak of characters I hate. That whole heartbeat thing was total BS. It was a never ending one -upmanship in the hospital and as said by others, the ML and FL (who I was surprised was the FL and not Kang Sora) had zero chemistry. Lol! In my over a decade of watching Asian dramas, this is the very first bloody time that I love the 2nd female lead character (Oh Soo Hyun) and hate the first female lead (Jae Hee). I root for Soo Hyun like a lunatic that I want Jae Hee to disappear for good. I was actually rooting for her and Hoon even though I kinda wanted Hoon to get his one true love back? As the world grew smaller and every man over the age of forty was revealed to be part of some nefarious plan involving Hoon, I was at least glad for the inclusion of Director Choi. Hi, at 5.34minutes in this episode, Dr.Han Seung Hee is wearing a wristband. Hoon is arrested. But the plot is so frustrating I'm irritated. This is the one drama I tell people NOT to watch if they're just starting out.

All I can hope for are more moments with Soo-hyun, because shes one princess whos going to need a white knight in her corner, Jae-joons Dungeons and Dragons metaphors be damned. we didn't get that from JH/PH. For that I take the Park Hoon-Jae Hee/Seung Hee couple as the more worthwhile couple over the cute and sassy Hoon-Soo Hyun. While Seung-hee sneaks something Kevorkian into Chang-yis moms IV, Agent Cha reports to Nightshade that Seung-hee was successful in the surgery. Jae Hee's confession to Soo Hyun that she will be leaving soon confirmed my suspicion that there's a higher probability that the ending of this series won't veer away from the original ending in the book (Doctor Stranger is based in a best-seller book - Northern Doctor).

Moon because gosh, those two are hilarious. Take away the names and the different settings of each drama, I see the same person with the same limited expressions. Lee Ki-chan Meet You Now () from the OST. Although, I have no idea what's north korea group plan for Hoon Gotta agree with everyone that KSR and LJS acting is tremendously top notch in every episode. the subs in the video i watched seemed to not have that line. Let there be a twist in the plot. this was her worst scene ever in DrStanger [at least for me] she stood there with 1 expression on her face and her mouth and eyes wide open , even when she was holding PH's hand and about to fall in the river her eyes and face expression were the same, empty, not like a person who is about to die, thanks God jong suk was there to save that scene he made me cry, he broke my heart he made me feel his loss and pain. version : 'v2.2' // use version 2.2 Never mind that multiple years have gone by and each partner has probably grown and matured in different directions due to different experiences. but to rate it, i would say 7.5, im not that a picky of watching drama unless its really that boring or problematic then thats another topic. My Girl. what about her scene as Jae hee in Budabet at that bridge where she & park hoon were surrounded by men with guns wanted to kill them ?

Which episode would you say was the turning point for you? In terms of the two (2) kidneys, I believe they were referring to kidney transplant patient. she's not a cat with nine lives, scriptwriter. I think the video was brought by the smuggler to prove to Hoon that Jae Hee is alive. I think PM&I started off with that concept, but it was poorly executed in the end.

For a moment even Soo-hyun looks lost, as she remembers the uncanny resemblance between the two but cant find a logical explanation as to what on earth is going on. And how? i mean when they say in this drama everyone has a different heartbeat and when they test it and get it wrong in the end how dull would that be???? with so much Soo Hyun and Hoon moments, I keep thinking that she's the main girl lead. Foolishly, I was too happy to notice and just typed this along the way. Hoon doesnt, and forgoes the law to take a look. She has no family so I don't see what possible hold that North Korea could have on her. Hes back in Myungwoo to destroy the hospital, and the chairman with it, to get revenge. In the book, Park Hoon will end up with Soo Hyun. I just wish that theyll incorporate a time jump, and later on well see Hoon and Soo Hyun happy together as a couple and are successful in their career as thoracic surgeons. She was equally upset when she broke it, even though she covered it up. May 11, 2014. I just want the drama to explore more of Hoon as a person and a doctor, instead of having him wandering around all day, crying for his first love like he did in this episode. (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). Ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum. Just like how no two people have the same face. He thinks back to when he held Jae-hee to his heart and said that their heartbeats were the same. Her father still had one functioning kidney. Years later, Hoon, a budding genius surgeon, and his girlfriend Song Jae-h=Hee try to escape to South Korea. Maybe in the second half? Master's Sun script started out kinda promising and then it got so ridiculous towards the end. Ha. To my understanding, JaeHee was dead or nearly dead, and the NK revived her and insert some kind of chip in her brain to wipe her memory and control her and sent her back to SK with a mission as SeungHee. It lessens his character, one with unique background and dark history of being a doctor in the NK human lab. ), I think she mutter his name when asleep/delirious but not consciously. Jae-joon in surgery. Whenever things went wrong in his head, he started over until he was sure that he can perform the surgery successfully. 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. Its a good thing when you don't really care that much about the show with all your heart, that it doesn't matter much in which direction it goes, as long as its entertaining ! Soo-hyun calls him Father for the first time in a long time, and tells him that shes sorry while thanking him for loving her mom. It's the writing/directing/show I'm talking about. but really, in all seriousness, Hoon better end up with Jae-hee. I hope we get more interaction between the two of them and I'm actually interested how Seung-hee is trying to keep her mask up in front of Park Hoon (and everyone else). Hoon, just by touching the patients chest, was able to picture the heart and immediately determine whats wrong. Thought it was just me! His quest to find her is what keeps the wheel turning, and JSY's flat portrayal more or less deflates that wheel. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser. There's just soooo much dramaland logic I can't imagine watching something like that with my current brain. In North Korea, Park Hoon was trained to become a doctor by his father who was already a famous doctor. Its very difficult to grasp all of the different aspects between the characters, such as tone, choice of words, and expressions. I was confused as to why he was chosen and why they needed him. Anyway, that whole Seung Hee/Jae Hee story line is boring to me because I don't like Jin Se Yeon much as an actress. Using Myung Woo University Hospital as the background, the drama portrays a story of love and competition with the characters standing in the center of a North Korean conspiracy to select the team members of the surgery team that will operate on the South Korean Prime Minister Jang Seok Joo (Cheon Ho Jin.). I'll look them over, thanks! She can't be just the love interest, there has to be more going on with her or the whole plot doesn't work. I was very confused on the shipping side of things. But when she merely blinks confusingly, Hoon asks desperately, Cant you recognize me?. I think it's both way though. All the things around Jae-hee are just impossibility. In almost all of the Kdramas I have watched (and I have watched a great many these past few years), I noticed that Kdramas seem to be stuck on first loves. . Forget about lead roles in major dramas, she needs to take it slow and develop her skills. Even if the writer/director's intention was to make it unclear whether Soohyun or Jae Hee is the real female lead, I felt like Jae Hee was never a viable heroine (not that I think Soohyun is either. May wrote, the show 'forces' one to accept their relationship. 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. Entire scenes were spent kind-of-maybe-not-really trying to paint a picture of the Big Conspiracy going on, and if the point was merely to show us that there is a conspiracy without revealing anything about said conspiracy, then mission accomplished: were still confused. It kept me interested, wanting to know her identity and reasons no matter what her identity is. 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. although I strongly doubt she will become" Talented" in 1 week, you either have it or don't . Outside of her, Hoon have virtually nobody left to care for. Reply to May too since the reply button is missing from her post. Sure I do. And if I go further, the same can also be said of Hoon's current state in SK--he's a stranger both literally and metaphorically, as he lives in a world that he's long since forgotten, and his quest to finding Jae Hee is what anchors him back to his reality. How did the writers or anyone else in the making of the show not notice?? *but the actors have such good chemistry omw), But you forgot that Soo-hyun kissed another guy! Park Hoon is eccentric (with a matching hairstyle), playful and a genius. It just felt like we were going round in circles about the same spot, looking at the same thing. Meanwhile, a stone-faced Seung-hee tells Agent Cha that the whole act was devised so that Hoon would believe that Jae-hee is alive. I would give this drama major kudos if Hoon and Soo-Hyun end up together. in the sense, yes, i acknowledge they're in a relationship; but no, i don't feel invested in their relationship. K1ngkang v2. Doctor Stranger - Episode 3. She tries very hard to be a good doctor even though she doesnt have the talent so that she can prove herself to her father, whos the chairman of the hospital.
