The doctors are scared of competition I guess 😅🤷🏻‍♀️
I read an article a while back, I tried to find it again but couldn't... it said something on the lines of doctors work as private businesses in SK, the funding is different to other countries - they invest a lot to set up their business and it may not pay off if the numbers increase by 50%. The Korean public is generally not supporting the action of the trainees. The whole perception of the drama would be different if it aired now, and I'd guess the narrative has become skewed, dramas often make subtle political observations which could come across as unintentionally crass in the current situation.

Namkoong-min in Awaken... in the back of a car, the atmosphere is tense, the investigation is gaining momentum travelling to the next clue. "This car's a bit quiet..."
"Yes, it's a hybrid"
Zoom camera to the car's infotainment screen and linger for way too long while the driver ponderously navigates the options: "KIA".
Totally priceless. K-drama gold.

Yes they should definitely be riding bikes or something, not driving cars
What was that Han Ji-min drama, she had to ride (what looked like) a Brompton bike... it was wobbly, she finally got so pissed off with it she flung it to the floor and it was never seen again!

I love the products, it's so funny when the drama turns into a full-on commercial - a doctor has 3 minutes to save a patient... make that two, she first had to apply the anti-wrinkle stick very slowly and admire the results 😆
It's part of the business and it makes the drama appear to be doing well, a drama without products isn't a proper K-drama.

Great news, thanks for the article. Hope it's streaming on one of my providers. The premise sounds full of opportunity, and although I'm a big fan of the here and now, pre smart phone era also adds a lot of scope for drama.

I know right. They keep doing that with the new dramas and it's really annoying!! It's true that sometimes I say…
I totally agree! I love your take on the kissing, it also bothers me... I think it started when I watched the sinews popping out of Kim Seon-ho's neck in ChaChaCha - unsightly!

The romances, in general, are aloof recently - so although they gross us out with the kiss, the romantic feeling is going the other way, it's non-existent.

I just have to ask - why is it ALWAYS 2PM's Lee JunHo? He has plenty of dramas under his name, he's recognised…
It isn't 2PM Lee Jun-ho on Naver, the source article. Sounds like lo-ve is a Soompi writer, they do that all the time on Soompi because it started out as a K-pop site... and they're very, very childish. Nothing they write makes sense because of the illogical possessives, apostrophes and nonsense words mixed into every sentence.

Not Soompi! That'll get on the op's nerves even more than MDL. Everything's a list, and if this isn't a shit headline, I don't know what is:

「4 Times Moon Sang Min Messed Up & 1 Time He Didn’t In Episodes 5-6 Of “Wedding Impossible”」

Run by kids, like the Viki subtitles 🤢

That's what I was starting to think, hoping Korea wouldn't pick up on the dragging a show for seasons... I mean…
There's a clue somewhere... It starts with 'D' and ends with 'isney'.

It's paid for the title, it will now try to get its money's worth for 2 more seasons with steadily declining budget.

It all feels like a nightmare.

To brighten your mood, if you haven't seen this clip, this guy's got a funny way of explaining:
