Gosh…. This was so good, I clicked on play with no expectations given the details/summary above was a bunch of gibberish… Definitely at least a solid 8.5. It was a 9 for me because the smooth and satisfying ending caught me by surprise.
So sad that it didn’t gain much viewership/traction in Mainland as well. I wonder why… I spse the way the themes/genres were blended (Drama, Business, Romance, Mystery…..?) and written is kinda new/unexplored…. Also, probably the slow start deterred viewers…..? But by Episode 4 I was completely engrossed 😳… and it got more and more exciting which is kinda always a 50-50 chance with Mainland dramas…
The way it was written, the topics touched upon, and production quality is actually closer to modern K-dramas. It’s probably one of the most visually beautiful modern C-drama I’ve ever watched. The sets, colour grading , office workwear etc was wow…. Like everything was so sophisticated, refined whilst maintaining realism…. So much attention to detail albeit not high budget… except for one bit whereby they spelt ‘Waffle’ wrongly… 🤣 should also commend the cast and screenwriter for all the latent comedic moments. I did LOL! Truly requires some legit skills.
I never quite knew wot P.R companies/people did….. I had a vague idea, some general outline, but after this series like… oh wow. Ok. Their line of work is so…. Interesting… and it wouldn’t suit most people…. Coz the required skillset is so very ‘unique/specific’ considering it isn’t classified as a “professional”.
What’s up with Peng Guan Ying and all these jinxed ML characters he takes on….. I came here just to check…
Yeap. ☺️ Viewers would mostly remember his characters…. coz he was that good/intense in portraying them. 🤣 like for example I didn’t even watch the entirety of The Controllers…. I just watch clips here and there coz I liked the main actress as well (and I was curious), and boy….. was he intense….. 😳haha.
I’m going to skip this one altogether and wait for his next series (I had enough with Unexpected Falling, the 1st half was so damn good and when it ended I was left “?!?!?”)…. He is pretty talented…. So hopefully he will get a “normal” series soon, coz I certainly don’t want to watch some really crazy plot for the sake of an actor/actress.
Hello, I can’t access Viki in my region… sorry to ask but does this drama contain subtitles under Viki? 🙇🏻♀️🙇🏻♀️This…
Ah! Thanks much for your effort. ❤️ hope they do it soon, the production is mid-high budget and is tastefully done….
It has some oddities on the romance side which might not suit younger viewers or the general crowd (one example: it kinda takes very real life modern day issues between 2 people to the more extreme/exaggerated end). However the slice-of-life bits and business themes are pretty solid esp. coz it goes into the P.R industry in relative depth. It’s actually very eye-opening/interesting.
Viki has added a channel and is seeking regional licensing.https://www.viki.com/tv/39738c-in-spite-of-the-strong-wind?qId=2f9d7ab8aebed4d769c0eb0b2499c942#aboutViki's…

This series is actually really good… at least 20 episodes in it still is, but my Mandarin proficiency is only at ～70-80%… ☺️
What’s up with Peng Guan Ying and all these jinxed ML characters he takes on….. I came here just to check…
Ah, ok… then perhaps Peng Guan Ying is a little….. “luckier”… I don’t know if that’s considered lucky actually. Haha. Because his roles are usually more “complex”; manipulating people amongst other things….? Or like more “antagonist” type. However because of this, the range of emotions he has to express needs to be quite wide thus most viewers (and I suppose directors) can see that he is a talented actor.
Sadly, he doesn’t land any major series although he gets main lead roles… and he has already starred in a lot of series… ah, and those who are familiar with him as an actor realised that the series he stars in somehow starts off strong but then towards the end it becomes 50 shades of crazy. 🤣 with some weird-ass ending. Hence why I said he’s jinxed, coz if I count this it’s like the 3rd series in 3 yrs.

Yeap, the preceding ones were even worse…. It all started with the drama The Confidence…. Lol. And then Unexpected Falling… and then this…. 🤣 poor dude, totally jinxed… and obviously he played the role in The Confidence wayyy to well and I think he kinda got type-casted…
I found it on Myasiantv. I think the subs are okay, but as a non-Mandarin speaker I can't be positive.
Ok, same then coz I can understand spoken Mandarin relatively well so I actually didn’t stare hard at the subtitles… but it did honestly look more than acceptable when I was reading them. But I only watched 1 episode. Ooo, let me check wot The Long Season is again, sounds familiar.

Ah… ok… lol. Yea, it’s quite… fine… like really minor bits here and there but it’s almost goes unnoticed… I was thinking…. “MDL members have very high standards for the psychiatric medical terms…….? 🤔 but I haven’t even seen much medical terms yet….”
I don't remember much of S2 what's this Oddball project?????????
Lol. It’s apparently said that this folder is the basis for Season 3… and at the end of Season 2… it was the key for the MS (multiple sclerosis) diagnosis of Kim Sa Bu…. MS currently has no cure.
I don't remember much of S2 what's this Oddball project?????????
“ She also confessed her feelings for Woo-jin to him and the two have begun dating, but the most interesting part about the last episode is the 'Oddball Project'. The project currently consists of all the cases, diagnoses that Doldam Hospital has come across in the past year, which was unique in some form or other. It is an entry of all possible diagnoses for cases that might otherwise seem tough to crack, and armed with this, Kim Sabu forges a new path for Doldam Hospital.”
Is there gonna be a season 2, also the ending is like a open ending.
No idea if you are a big fan of the cast but if you are talking about the plot it’s based on Dao Mu Bi Ji novels/universe…. So they have a weird thing about recasting for every single “season”…. It’s basically a Mainland thing anyways….
They haven’t made plans to do TV adaptations for “Season 2” yet, likely because it’s actually meant to be the “finale” for the main novels. But am pretty sure the author will likely do so eventually coz he started his own production company.
Yeap, The Resident is not bad, but I am defo surprised it got extended for so many seasons. Yea, sad that C-dramas won’t. Dr.Tang started off so strongly though, gave me some hope 😇. And I checked, wow, the Douban ratings are high, but with low viewership.
Lol, fair point. I do think it sounds nicer than “Mary Sue”, lol why can’t it just be playgirls instead…. 🤣🤣🤣
I actually think the whole promiscuity is only gender biased in some countries in Asia (which I believe will remain so for another 1-2 decades, and in some countries probably forever….. 😔), in most Caucasian countries or in the West it kinda is quite equal already.

Ok, thanks.
