High-Quality Bromance

In many bromance series, there is often a forced romantic subplot with a female character, but this drama executed it well without that distraction.

The protagonists, Zheng Ren and Su Yun, have no unnecessary romantic entanglements. In fact, they only have eyes for each other, focusing solely on improving themselves together. Although some female characters develop a crush on them, it goes completely unnoticed and unreciprocated.

The drama is packed with hospital management, surgeries, and interactions with patients, leaving no room for romance. This allows viewers to fully enjoy the bromance.

I particularly liked Su Yun's character in this drama. Having a genius like Zheng Ren in front of him, in many typical stories, one might expect Su Yun to be jealous or try to undermine him. However, Su Yun doesn't do that. Instead, he understands how much effort Zheng Ren has put into achieving his skills and strives daily to catch up with him. They are rivals, but also absolute friends. It’s a truly wonderful relationship.

Zheng Ren's character is insensitive to people's emotions and struggles with communication, which likely helped avoid censorship. There were moments where it seemed like Su Yun and Zheng Ren might kiss... but of course, they don't. Nonetheless, the bromance is so intense that fans of bromance will highly enjoy it.

The drama's storyline is very convenient. Zheng Ren rarely fails, and not many people die. Almost everything goes smoothly. While it could have been a bit more complex, the bromance is so superb that it makes the drama excellent overall.
