What is it that Yeon Ju said to Yeong Hye that made them look shocked and speechless
2FL: Did you what he did and who he really is? 1FL: I will find it out myself, the "ex-girlfriend" can stay out of it.
It doesn't matter if they really had a relationship or not, the 1FL's reply was her: 1. standing-up 2. telling 2FL in a "diplomatic" way to STFU 3. marking her territory 4. Taking ownership of 1ML 5. giving 2FL a warning to never cross-the-line nor to stand between her and the 1ML
For 2FL, she was shocked because (1) they never had such a relationship; (2) it was an insult to be called an ex, of all things because that implies she was too dumb to dump him ir he dump her; (3) being told to STFU was an insult to her status and reputation (she's a celebrity chef).
For 1ML, he was shocked because he totally did not expect it from 1FL, all this time he sees her as someone who hates his being, and he fully understood that 1FL was marking her territory.
But I wonder what the 2FL will do. She will probably fall in love because her pride was trampled on when 1FL said, "I'll find it out, the ex-girlfriend can stay out of it". Like, da*n, even if they never had a relationship, that was a total slap on her. 🤣🤣🤣
They can do two things: 1. 2022–2023 webisodes bridging HP and RP. For example, Webisode 1 gives us more about Kim Sabi's family of renowned doctors. In Webisode 2, the HP characters were talking about an incident of a 1st year Resident who bit a fellow. In Webisode 3, the wedding preparations. In webisode 4, the disbandment of Hi-Boyz and his decision to be a doctor. And so on.
The webisodes will serve as a fun, "fan service", bridge. It is episodic (for those not familiar, episodic = no overall arc). And a webisode is usually 5–15 minutes long only.
2. 2021–2022 HP3. Instead of the usual format, it should be either a short series or a direct-to-disc or direct-to-OTT movie.
This is the only fitting timeline for any HP3 possibility. Why? Because the cameos in RP1 pretty much sealed everything that HP is over, there are less stories to tell.
If they set HP3 in 2023–2024 or 2024–2025, they'll have to deal with the cameos and movement of characters. Would HP be the same without Doctor Chuchu? Sure, they can push it to 2023–2024 and that's pretty much it. There's definitely no HP after 2024 as far as the original characters are concerned.
So, the best time period is 2021–2022. But since there won't be much stories to tell, and they'll end up rehashing the same patient stories too, it's better to keep it a short series. 6 episodes will do. Or, a movie. If they don't, they're risking tarnishing HP's overall rating. This is common in the West, later releases tarnished the overall rating of the franchise because they powers-that-be want to milk it when it already ended on a high note.

I would love to see them as fourth years training a new batch of residents, and being assigned to more complex…
Yep! Your idea is awesome. I remembered Star Trek: Discovery did that, they showed a far future webisode in-between seasons which got fans excited and talking. But the series itself never reached that future time period they teased. Yet, fans became so eager to watch the following season because of curiosity that came from the webisodes.
It's like asking, "How did they get to that point? What happened in-between?" And that's where the following season answered.
You have an awesome suggestion. I definitely want to see those as well. Short webisodes. It can be from a far future like them training new batch of residents, or even as professors, or, glimpses of them having kids but without actually revealing whose kids? 🥰
I see a lot of replies questioning you but it’s like that on my culture too! both ethnically & nationality so…
Wow. So it's more common than I imagined. If you don't mind, where are you from?
Just to share, here in the Philippines, it's fine, and we don't have laws forbidding it. The only laws we have when it comes to forbidding certain marriages are: 1. Cannot marry a blood-relative up to the 3rd degree 2. Cannot marry an adopted sibling (combine that with №1, one cannot marry their adopted cousin up to the 3rd degree either, since the law sees adoption as technically blood relatives)
An exception to №1 is if the siblings were already married before their parents married. The same with №2, if they were already married before they were legally adopted, it's fine. Of course, for №2, that's unlikely because we don't do adoption of adults and we don't have a family registry system (though many do keep family tree records).
So, in-laws are fine since they're not blood-relatives.
It is called a spin-off for a reason, and that is, it is a spin-off. 🤪
No, seriously. Spin-offs are never ever meant to be the same as the original. A spin-off is simply a clearer way of saying it's an adaptation.
For example, the Kdrama Little Women was an adaptation of the novel. Yet, people complained that it had nothing to do with the original novel. That was why it was called an adaptation in the first place. The industry don't call it a spin-off because it will sound weird. But technically, it was a spin-off.
Spin-off is just a clearer way of identifying what type of adaptation the work is. So, when you see "spin-off", it's obviously telling you, "This is different from the original but is in the same universe." And oftentimes, writers take a lot of liberties and latitude when creating a "spin-off" type of adaptation. I mean, why repeat the same formula as the original? It's a completely new story that happens to exist in the same universe. (Of course, there are spin-offs that are not set in the same universe, they're usually just called "adaptation" like the Kdrama Little Women.)
In other words, rate this show without comparing it Hospital Playlist. Otherwise, it is a disservice to the cast and crew of both shows. That's like comparing lemon and kalamansi. Rate Resident Playbook based on how the actors performed in their own show. Rate it based on how the writer wove the story. Rate it how the director did for this show. As if this was not a spin-off at all.
Because if you're going to rate kalamansi based on your experience with lemon, well, you'll probably won't like kalamansi.
With surprise comedies and a "karmic" conclusion. And best of all, the mainstays were all present (not like in S01E11, one mainstay was absent).
However, as is Korean drama tradition, it was written in a way that it truly ended, not leaving anything for a possible new season. It was so perfect, you wouldn't ask for more as it brought proper closures and immense satisfaction.
Still, I do hope there'll be a Season 02 because I like the entire cast and their acting. They did not outshine one another, instead, they complemented each other's acting. A weakness of one actor was hidden because of another actor filling in. Was it intentional? Maybe, maybe not, and that's what made the cast awesome. Who cares if they're support or main or a guest? They were all there to have fun and bring joy to the audience.
Not only that, her appearance meant the other doctor didn't show up.I think the other doctor, the always angry…
Yep. She was integral to the show, she and mother theresa. 😅 Those two need to have at least one scene each episode. 😁
In any case, I'm suspecting it was scheduling or some real-life emergency. When they inserted the pregnant doctor in the story, it was so out-of-place. Like you said, she just appeared out-of-nowhere yet she's apparently an important doctor and was training FL1 for weeks too (probably most of her 9 months pregnancy)!
S03E02 was very fun and enjoyable. It gave us two types of players:
1. The young students were willing to risk 2. The old couple played it safe
Yet, at the end of the day, both groups valued the joy and happiness of sharing an hour with celebrities they only see on screens or from a distance. The gifts were simply a bonus, a memento to remember that once-in-a-lifetime experience, and even without it, interacting with the celebrities were truly more than enough.
Even though I'm only an audience from another country watching through an OTT service, I felt a part of their experience and joy. 🙇🏽
But right now, Ozone is the one dreaming. Maybe that's why the stalker want to remove Ozone from the picture because Dream should be the one dreaming.
Also, by trying to murder Ozone, he was probably forcing Ozone to wake up as their protector. He is the shield that will protect them from the multiverse's harmful "rays"/"curse" causing the deaths.
But right now, the roles of Ozone and Dream are reversed. This meeting want a coincidence, it was designed. However, someone messed it all up = the doctor.
Day and Night have roles to play. The doctor messed it. Which also reversed the role of Ozone and Dream. Which the stalker is probably trying to fix.

Who are Sabi's family members? They are all renowned doctors!
- 2 deaths

- 4 first-year residents growing and learning

I think the other doctor, the always angry one, had a schedule during the filming so they made up a new doctor suddenly.
The regulars are: angry doctor, mother theresa, prof. Seo, and the 5 Mains. But angry doctor was absent in E11, and replaced by a pregnant doctor.
Dream = knowing
But right now, Ozone is the one dreaming. Maybe that's why the stalker want to remove Ozone from the picture because Dream should be the one dreaming.
