sighhh.... i will acknowledge all the bashing this review should get, but i am voicing my thoughts. i do not mean to offend anyone. and i do not want to take any side in fan war. but here comes my review to not so great yet OVERRATED DRAMA OF YEAR.......................... story: .. . . . . . .NA . .. . . A serious drawback to drama. no plot. i know there are many great dramas and great movies with no much plot but are entertaining. but this drama is directed in a way that reminds again and again that there is no plot. making it really really obvious. characters need to be really engaging to make some thing good out of practically nothing. i think this drama dealt that fairly ok. not really great. but what bugged me is plot holes it had. cliff hangers are really cheap with a goal to garner higher TRP ratings. which makes us wonder if we are watching a reality tv show instead of drama. and also ridiculous story line. i would love to jot down plot holes it had, but i am afraid i will spoil it for already meagre story it had. also villain are not villains. they are just simple characters which sprang up now and then. but yet this drama is worth your time because of 1. Onew's role only character in drama which is developed really well. he surprised me with his acting. he is so adorable. 2. bromance between yoo si jin and seo dae young/kang mo yeon and lieutenant yoon. these characters are well engaged. and they meant more sense than leads romance. when they four are together, hilarious stuff happened. 3. comedy between doctors/comrades really good. there are certain fangirling moments and cheesy lines between them which i laughed out loud/ screamed to top of air. 4.second couple romance their relationship is more meaningful than main leads had. they grew on me. although their kisses are subtle, it brought butterflies in my stomach. i just wish seo dae young is tough in the relationship. but he did fend some sense into him in middle of episodes. 5. acting. acting totally saved this drama. almost all actors decently played their role. making me to root for them. MUSIC. music is brilliant. i enjoyed almost all songs. sometimes music had more feels than the romance leads have. so it did not sync well while watching drama. but songs are pretty amazing when you hear them , while not watching drama.. REWATCH: i may rewatch parts of this drama which i enjoyed. but i wont do that anytime soon. RECOMMEND: if you are not mindful of plot, and dont mind to be nitpicking on plot holes and stupid cliff hangers it had. YOU CAN ENJOY IT. i dont mean to say drama is bad. its actually good. but dont come with great expectation like i did.
