THE BEST MEDICAL DRAMA

I don't usually write reviews, but this drama deserves it. I finished it a few months ago but hadn't thought about writing a review until now.

I have a lot to say about this series, but I want to start by saying that it's not for everyone. Considering that Shin Won Ho and Lee Woo Jung (director and writer of series like Prison Playbook and Reply) are behind this series, it's not surprising that it may not be for everyone, as it has its characteristic style that may not appeal to the general audience.

The series has a somewhat slow start as it needs to introduce many characters, and you might find yourself confused during the first two or three episodes. However, after a few more episodes, you'll be completely immersed in this great story. Personally, I love it because it's not the typical medical series we're accustomed to. There are no doctors with superhuman and unreal abilities, and they're not always rushing around the emergency room or in life-or-death surgeries. This series is more than that; it avoids falling into the typical clichés found in other dramas. It focuses more on the friendship of the five protagonists and their daily lives within the same hospital.

The relationship between the protagonists is incredible; their chemistry goes beyond the screen, and at times, you can feel that they're not acting but displaying their real personalities. Each of them has their problems and insecurities, but they support each other in difficult times, and in good times, they are always there to have fun together.

Another thing I want to mention is that the OST of this series is wonderful. I finished the series months ago, but I'm still listening to the songs because they are really good.

This series may not be for everyone, but if it manages to captivate you, you'll find it hard to let go, and you'll miss all the characters when it's over. It's a slow series that takes its time to tell its story. The romance is so well-written that it doesn't overshadow what is truly important in this narrative: friendship and the patients they have to help day by day.

If you've made it this far, thank you very much for reading, and I hope that if you decide to watch it, you enjoy it as much as I did.
