This show is fast paced, cruel at times in its reality, and yet shows positive human change, inspiration and perseverance. I did not like the presence of an inherent evil character but I liked the development of the Chief and the eventual ending towards an actual positive change in their available resources. JJH's character was great, in that he was inspirational, demanding (sexy) and not above being callous with the right people to use his positives to his advantage and for the greater good. He understood how to use money, media, medical knowledge to actually create a Trauma center that was well staffed and well funded. His attitude as a trauma surgeon made me feel like he was egoistic at times, but at his heart he was a true doctor and wanted to save lives above all else. All the background characters were great. I can't see medical dramas in details because blood and guts make me feel faint, but I was able to fast forward most of the intense medical scenes easily and still feel the tension and development in the storyline. Must watch!
Ju Ji Hoon as a Prosecutor Husband? Likely going to wear a lot of sexy suits and show off his intelligence and be all demanding and arrogant and sexy??? SIGN ME UP
To anyone considering whether or not to watch this show, picture a sexy, tall Ju Ji Hoon in a black suit, giving orders, being demanding, and being the best at his job (like he always is, in each show he acts in) and thank me later :)
Despite people focusing more on his private life than his professional, his range simply cannot be denied. Many people started watching Korean shows because of him and that kind of worldwide recognition cannot be attained easily.
I've been a JJH fangirl for over 5 years now and it's so gratifying to see his fame grow across global Kdrama watchers! I've said it before and I'll say it again, main roles only💅
Literally just started this, but the gorgeous shot at 07:24 in episode 1 of Ju Ji Hoon's sexy arms/wingspan taking all 3 seats spread across a chair is HOT AS HELL
My expectations from this drama were high, but unfortunately maybe a little too high, and they weren't met in the end. The premise was good and the potential was there, but for me this would've worked better as a 6 episode show instead. I felt the female MCs development lacking, wasted characters in the form of the elder sister and in Ji Sang U, and in making the storytelling choppy instead of smooth like it was in the first 2 episodes. There was no need for repeated scenes of the male MC driving in a rage because of yet another 'female is in grave danger' scene, it loses its edge after it happens twice in a row and made the writing seem lazy. I absolutely despised the random scenes in the beginning where the male MC groped at his wife, seemingly out of nowhere and then snapped out of a 'daze'. Is this 2006 and these scenes are supposed to be seen as romantic again? It took away the excitement for me. The few highlights for me were office manager Kang Yeong U and assistant Park Do Jae who were both engaging, acted well, and became relevant quickly despite smaller roles. Also Na Yu Ri who remained effortlessly charming till the end. I also liked a small dive into how communication works between two people who want to open up but can't, and I liked Baek Sa Eon making an effort to learn sign language and how that changed their chemistry. I also liked both sets of parents, and the hidden old incident was actually good enough to prompt the trauma that both main characters suffered from, which is rare in shows like this.
Dude no, honestly, in a 1v1 without any weapons maybe, but in actual criminal/policeman chase Vincenzo would have them dead before they could say, 'What?' because he'd always be 10 steps ahead and plan in advance. So if Vincenzo was the Vigilante for instance, he'd be invincible no matter who chased him. But in a pure physical fight, YJT would win, I agree.
But hmm, now I'm thinking, YJT trains well and is calm and collected, so maybe I would place it as YJT, then Vincenzo, then Ma Deong Seok. Only by a hairs-breadth difference though. Like a score of 100, 99.9 and 99.8 respectively
