Exaggerated characters and unlikable heros

This show started out okay, but the more it developed, the more the characters felt less real and more like caricatures. You have the evil chief of the main hospital, that is so evil to the point of being unbelievable. You have Teacher Kim that is supposed to be a little unorthodox but with redeeming qualities, but ends up being just annoying. Then you have the main young male doctor, who we were supposed to be rooting for from the very beginning. And unfortunately, through most of the show he's still a selfish whiny character. I'm sure by the last episode he'll finish realizing that being a good doctor it's more important than money and fame. However, throughout the show he strongly considered so many atrocious actions being bribed by the bad chief, that nobody with the minimal of a good character would even consider. There is no redemption Arc that is believable from that. You don't get credit in the end for realizing that letting people die for profit wasn't the right thing. I think most people would know that without a journey. Not sure why this had such high ratings.
