All the non-consensual intimate scenes are so off-putting 😭
Why are we only kissing when the other is unconscious or drunk??? Hard pass

It's better not to think about accuracy while watching the show. Just the beginning or when they first fly with…
Yeah the helicopter scene was straight up bs and fantasy lmao πŸ˜‚
They took off the patient's lid midair and that too by making a hole in his skull with a chisel? Never mind that the hole has to be absolutely precise with the help of technology for mapping for proper location, but the trauma to the skull because of brute force from hammering could have severely damaged the patient's spine or other speech/movement areas of the brain! They’re breaking sterile code & medical compliance at every turn so this was just my breaking point lmao. I guess it also bothers me a bit more since I’m studying in the medical field so it stands out more like a sore thumb. The dissonance in some scenes is more apparent than the other and this ended up being one of those for me :/

Oh well, like u said, the surgeries & medical component is more of a stylistic device to deliver the more prominent part of the show, the struggles of the trauma team, and it IS a drama after all so there's only so much we can expect. It's still very enjoyable & well done so the drama deserves the praise it gets. But yeah, I just wanted to present my point on what I found to be a bit of a gap in the medical compliance aspect but other than that, it is quite entertaining πŸ˜‚

Ok, so it was bearable so far with the medical accuracy but I'm currently halfway through Ep 4 and they just let…
But that surgical glove & endoscope move was so big brain & requires absolute precision & skill my goodness - he's really shown to have exceptional skills

Ok, so it was bearable so far with the medical accuracy but I'm currently halfway through Ep 4 and they just let two doctors who hadn't scrubbed into the OR??!! The sterile field atp is broken beyond repair & irl, they'd have to start over with the surgery, not to mention you just CANNOT enter DURING a surgical procedure WHILE the patient is literally cut open???? This point was kind of inexcusable & broke the immersion for me so bad. Now I get why Ju Ji Hoon said he argued with the director for one of the scenes, it must've been this one 😭😭

Can I just say that the OSTs are abso-fucking-lutely bangin'!
They add so much more to a scene whenever they start playing in the bg - excellent timing and build-up! The fight scenes hit harder, the thrill and anticipation rises and just overall such a vibe man - I LOVE IT!

Actually, we've gotten quite a few rising actors who started with KBLs in these past few years. Won Tae Min from You Make Me Dance, Park Jae Chan from Semantic Error, Son Woo Hyun & Kim Kang Min from TMS. Most recently, Choo Young Woo has been gaining popularity with the Tale of Lady Ok & Trauma Code; he was in YMMD as well. And ofc, we've got Cha Woo Min.

Idk, the BL genre itself is becoming more accepted in Korea due to an array of factors. I think a positive influence is also being cast upon Korea in terms acceptance of the LGBTQ+ community because of globalized media and the apparent influx of interactions with International, and more open minded individuals. The younger generation is generally more progressive so we have that going too. The genre's integration into mainstream media thanks to the likes of 'Love in the Big City' & actors like Nam Yoon Su talking openly about it has brought upon controversy which most certainly brings along change. But I would definitely attribute Western interest in Kdramas as the biggest contributor to Korea becoming more open to homosexual relationships. Take Squid Games S2 for instance, the cast literally has PROMOTIONAL content where they react to their BL edits lmao - something that would've been unthinkable a few years ago but now it's possible cause it sells lol. Back when Kdramas were more so limited to catering to only the Korean population, the writers were more wary of criticism & their works being shunned for their potentially controversial themes, now though, the production is for a much wider audience so even if a few Koreans disapprove of a particular genre or plotline, writers are much more willing to take the risk since there's a larger demographic out there getting attracted to the work BECAUSE of that genre.
Now the biggest reason for these BL actors not ending up with "dead careers" simply from starring in BLs can be attributed to their talent! Yes the drop in prejudice has helped, but it's the potential that most directors look for. Just my speculation but since more of the popular actors from older generations are starting to age up and not taking as many projects, they're definitely looking for more new talents to fill up those spots; so what better place to look than BLs, where both the leads are handsome lol (just kidding btw, I'm not that shallow)

Anyways, that was my rant... Sorry, didn't mean for it to end up being so long πŸ˜…
