Ok...well to those of you who have not watched Doctor Stranger and are looking at reviews to see if it is worth it or not, you may be pretty confused by my rating and the other reviews. You could say everyone had/has a different reaction or feeling after finishing Doctor Stranger. For me Doctor Stranger was a drama which began strong but, then suddenly got messed as episodes went by. I don't blame the director. I don't blame the actors. I blame the writer. There is only one way to explain why I'm thinking the way I do today. My episode guide on how I felt through each episode: EP1: Excited! I was even reminded a little bit of City Hunter. 10/10 EP2: This is fast-past! So much happening all at once. Loving this so far!! 10/10 EP3: So much fun! Every character...especially Park Hoon is so enjoyable to watch! 10/10 EP4: This keeps engrossing me the entire time...every second. 10/10 EP5: "I don't get it! What does she/insert character name here want?" 9.5/10 EP6: I still don't understand. 0_0 9/10 EP7: This episode was very mellow....no climax. 8.5/10 Pause for a second reader. Do you notice something? Ok well let's continue on. EP8: "What are you doing Park Hoon!?" "What are you doing!" 8.5/10 EP9: First half of episode: Intense. Second half of episode: Boring. These characters are confusing me but I don't want to drop it because of the first four episodes. 7/10 EP10: "Is this even the same show anymore?" "I'm really disappointed..." 5/10 This was the part were I put the show on-hold and waited. Yep. It took a long time and a lot of convincing to make me come back but I did. By this point I was two weeks behind in watching Doctor Stranger. So I skip-watched and I am not afraid to say it. EP11: Ok. It was ok but that's it. 6/10 EP12: "Yea!!! Jae Joon!" I had found one character that I actually respected and liked. 7/10 EP13: The show is trying to get back on it's feet. Good. 7/10 EP14: Thank god for the medical excitement...or I would never have been able to make it through this episode. 6/10 EP15: This love triangle is annoying. I want more action. 6/10 I'm going to skip some of the episodes because really they aren't worth explaining. EP19: 5/10 EP20: Honestly by episode 20 it didn't matter what the ending would be. I wasn't going to like it. Why you may ask? It's because I knew the story was already ruined and the only way the writer could fix the mess he made was having a ending which wouldn't make sense. I know it's a he because I looked up who wrote this rubbish. Just for everyone to know. His name is: PARK JIN-WOO. Remember the name because he is the one to blame. 1/10. Just a heads up. You may want a coffee break or something because this is a long review. You may also want to watch other dramas or maybe get some lunch. ^^ So here is the big question of the day. Do you want to watch it? Do you? I mean your probably thinking LJS was so great in "I Hear your Voice" so this should definitely be worth it or Kang So Ra was the best in "Ugly Alert" and she probably will be awesome here too. DO NOT LOOK AT THE CAST. IT'S A GREAT CAST BUT THE WRITER CAN NOT BE TRUSTED. This drama will ruin how you feel about the cast. The lower your expectations are the more you will enjoy it and that's a fact. That might be a good reason why the reviews are so different. Ok enough about that. On to what everyone wants to know. How is the music?! Doesn't everyone like a good OST? Well your in luck! Here is one of my favorite OST's from it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QusjP1V7qo This was basically all I listened to for about two weeks. "Saraghae. Saranghae.....I'm just a stranger without you, my love....Ohhhhhhmmmmm." Ok. Finally. Should you watch it? If you want to. I'm not going to say don't watch it because that's pointless. I mean you really want my opinion? No. Don't. To those who may disagree with me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6QA3m58DQw Sorry!
