Very decent

To be honest, I thought it was going to be a dry investigation drama.
It. Was. Not.

I thought the romance won't be that good.
I. Was. Wrong.

If you want something with an interesting investigation and detailed story, this is not it. If you want a funny slice of life hospital drama, this is not quite it. If you want a bunch of cuteness overload romantic stuff, it's not quite the right choice. BUT
if you want something that has a bit of everything surfacing here and there, then yes, go for it! It is I think worth your time, it's very decent, lots of heart-warming parts, good acting, good interactions. Not a perfect, but a GOOD show!

It has a not very complicated story, some evil-doers, corrupt stuff, nothing extraordinary, but enough to keep the actions moving.

The writing I think is actually sort of the weak part, it tries to be smart and deliver twists at the right time, but it always falls just a bit too far from the perfect way to do it. It's not bad though, but not very good either.

The characters are great, but again their writing is not always the best. I always expected them to say a bit better lines. I think it becomes better and better though as we go, I think the writer found the right voice as they showed more of the characters.

For some reason the main girl kind of gets abandoned halfway, like she comes up sometimes but she sort of loses her role and personality, her drive and ambition she had, I think again: writing problem, as the creator probably wanted to focus more on the guy and kind of forgot to find place for the girl.

Nevertheless the main guy is Indeed very interesting, he has a disability which you can't help but want to follow and heal.
The side characters actually grew on me more as we moved forward.
There are not that many jokes, and not that many romantic scenes, not that many interesting investigations, not that many interesting patients... BUT
When they are there, they hit hard, they are very good to watch and that's what kept me going and going, to see those parts which happened to be very well done.

(btw I love the main guy, I saw him in another drama before and watched this because of him, he gets lots of spotlight here and opportunity to shine I can also recommend this if you want to see more if him ehehe)
