Oooh, she's definitely in love. Hahaha.But I wonder what the 2FL will do. She will probably fall in love because…
That was like:
2FL: First of all b***ztch, I was never his girlfriend so I'm not his ex. 2FL: Secondly, I will neve date him even if he offers me his entire fortune, which by the way, he no longer has any. 2FL: Thirdly, who the heck are you to tell me to mind my own business? I'm a celebrity chef, and you're just a backwater cook of some unknown restaurant in a secluded place. 2FL: Lastly, I graduated from CIA and my boyfriend as well (Yeonseok?), and you? You learned to cook from your mother?
1FL: *smiles mischievously* CIA, you say? *crosses her arms and rolls her eyes*
yeah haha why they put it on the tag tho😭 they should've put that tag if the age gap is 15 years or something…
There are many sensitive people here in MDL, often pushing their own cultural and religious sensitivies over a fictional show made by Koreans for Koreans.
Since MDL is American-owned, and American culture is all about sensitivities and making new issues every 3 months, they add every tag they can think of to cater to people even if it doesn't make any sense. 🤪 Like in this case, they're sensitive to 5 years age gap be it real life or fiction. They added that because people will complain endlessly if they _accidentally_ watched the show. 🤷🏽
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.

He knows too well how 2FL will react and a battle of chefs and women will commence, and he'll be in the middle of it.
