let her die together with Agent Cha, thank you! to be fair to YFAS, Master's Sun and I Hear Your Voice, especially the latter, the characters are written way more complex than just 'bad' or 'good'. With supernatural power, no less. Two hearts. But them becoming a couple is just too convenient for me. I really want to like this because I started watching for LJS, and the chemistry b/n him and KSR is pretty intriguing. Am not too concerned, let the plot show its face when it shows its face! I'm stocking up Internet liquor just in case for you, Heads=P. Heartbeats are not like fingerprints. Just because I enjoy Soohyun's character more doesn't make me pro-Sora or anti-JSY. To be fair for JSY and her character(s), Jae Hee is more of a plot device than a fully realized character, and Seung Hee gets held back a lot for the sake of being mysterious. So many things were wrong with the show. I really enjoyed the drama because of the unique premise and think that LJS and JSY had great chemistry. Daughter of the Director and The Best Heart Surgeon. Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. For now she's probably the only one who really empathizes with PH, and I love that. We start off with Park Hoons dadPark Cheola brilliant heart surgeon, being called to North Korea. Ive made it to halfway through ep 16 and I just cant make myself watch any more. - Didn't Choi advise Dr Moon (just after the committee had an uproar after finding out Hoon's from N Korea) that Hoon is valuable to the nasty Prime Minister? Actually, I just discovered that you can really hate a drama and still continue to watch it because you are quite interested on how all the craziness will end. The first few episodes were good but the rest left such a bad taste in my mouth. Aww. Loved the Soo-hyun and Hoon scenes in this, this is the first time I'm shipping the male lead with the 2nd female lead. So many has mentioned that Seung Hee is practicing/copying JH in the laptop scene. SeungHee was briefed about JH relationship with PH so she awares of that in orde to make her mission succeed, but since her mind is control, she can't remember anything about the past, so she just has the SeungHee's mind in JaeHee's body. }); Hoon, just by touching the patients chest, was able to picture the heart and immediately determine whats wrong. However, as he later reveals to Chang-yi, hes still not sure about who Seung-hee is. Completely agree with you. Only a few times did I see hersmileand look sad but that also didnt look genuine, somehow. The actors and actresses performances are really commendable except the one lead (JSY) whos acting is just too stiff. Not even a little bit. Doctor Stranger S1: E1 Park Cheol Saves the Leader of En.. 2014 HD TagDub. [4][5][6] According to the website DailyNK, which reports on North Korea-related issues, the drama was highly popular among North Korean youth who would obtain it illegally at the jangmadang (markets). She then told Hyun that Hoon really loves her and he just hasnt realized it yet. She asked Soo Hyun to wait for him because later on Hoon would eventually realize his feelings. Thought it was just me! I mean, come on. A hot,sexy, badass spygirl~ahem, she is neither hot nor sexy actually the other anesthesiologist in the drama actress Han Eun-Sun i think, she is the real hoty, infact she is the sexiest of them all :D, The one who keep tease that glasses surgeon? This episode continues the charade from yesterdays already confounding show, as it raises still more questions. & 33,456 people watched this episode I have mixed feelings about it because of those random pointless things. I don't think so since characters coming back from the death is not as sacred as "a woman can only kiss one guy in her entire drama life" dogma of Kdrama plus we have to deal with "First Love" too which is like the TROPE to trump all other tropes. New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be cast. I personally think she is Jae Hee, but there is always a chance that she isn't. Firstly, from the first few episodes, the bracelet Hoon gave to Jae Hee in the beginning was in her possession. They chose patients based on the level of difficulty of the surgery and not from a doctors concerned point of view. We got some action and mystery, which Im all for. PNG or JPG. He mention about paying back his gratitude to Hoon,as he is the only one who knew PM secrets & he knew that Hoon dad was innocent. It was the same expression throughout her screen time in the show. we dont know what exacatly and why. In the book, Park Hoon will end up with Soo Hyun. I just wish . I hope shell take more acting lessons after this series. May wrote, the show 'forces' one to accept their relationship. Partly because it involved so much going back to previous episodes to see what matched up (a lot did not). I work really hard while acting as Song Jae Hee to show a child that is endlessly bright and pure; while acting as Han Seung Hee, I have to emotionally satisfy many things in order to make it seem as if there are many stories stored inside of her eyes., Jin Se Yeon then promised Though there is a lot of burden playing two characters as I still lack in many areas, it would be nice if people watched over me as I exert myself. LOL, yes, Kang So-ra is playing her very well, i admit. Its a rarity and definitely a fortunate turn of role casting for KSR. Lol! In my over a decade of watching Asian dramas, this is the very first bloody time that I love the 2nd female lead character (Oh Soo Hyun) and hate the first female lead (Jae Hee). I root for Soo Hyun like a lunatic that I want Jae Hee to disappear for good. Song Jae-Hee, in the small amount of time we saw her, was shown as a vibrant girl and I liked her instantaneously. The two of them have some sort of arrangement going on, and it involves getting Hoon to remain employed at Myungwoo Hospital. So you think they should be together because they look cute together, since Hoon calling her 'quack' is cute, since she kicking Hoon is cute, since she slapping Hoon is cute. Sheworkedhard.

In almost all of the Kdramas I have watched (and I have watched a great many these past few years), I noticed that Kdramas seem to be stuck on first loves. Im betting Seung-hee is Jae-hee, since we know the stopped heart as death fakeout was already done so it's possible for a repeat. }; Four, how did Hoon and Jae-hee survive the fall the second time in the last episode? It just seems so over the top and borderline ridiculous at times. what's the point of all the sacrifices they've made if PH just ends with another girl. After watching three shows of his and loving all of them, I decided Im bingeing the shows in which hes a lead. The North Korean scenes were nice but by far not enough considering what happened afterwards. Three cheers for Hoon being proactive! (But the preview of episode 7 looks promising with the premises moving back to the hospital and doctors and surgeries, so all is good for now). On one hand, hes furious about his parents, but on the other, hes now in love with Soo-Hyun. (and thoughts), Just to correct some errors: (I have posted this on Koala Playground's site): http://koalasplayground.com/2014/05/20/dr-stranger-episode-6-recap/. but really, in all seriousness, Hoon better end up with Jae-hee. In. RECOMMENDED. With Seung-hee standing right there, Hoon asks Chang-yis mom if she could still recognize Jae-hee if she saw her. I don't think this was explained in the first half I watched. There were a series of surgical competitions set up by the hospitals authorities for Hoon and Jae-Joon. Soo-hyun stays behind while Doctor Moon takes him, looking disappointed to see him go. In real medical practice, when you are the receiving kidney transplant "recipient", you will have two (2) kidneys on one (1) side of the body. Shes the only doctor Ive seenstudyinghardin dramas (and shows and movies). Rate. According to your conviction, the production team would have to convince you of that first. I love LJS but if PH is going to spend the entire show running around just trying to find JH, it annoys me. And why in the preview did the how many kidneys thing come up yet again? idk how do you guys feel about that pairing. I could feel their characters growing from those. To that end, I do believe that JSY lacks the gravitas to play out serious characters such as Seung Hee, she's just not at home to that entire demeanor of villainy. If she still had two kidneys, there would have been no need for Hoon to "kill" her father by taking his one remaining kidney to give to his daughter. }); Lifetime Movie Present: The Secret Lives of College Freshmen (Tagalog Dub) Uncut TV5 Dubbing. If she had amnesia (it has to be right after the bridge, isn't it? That would be the most welcome surprise. im actually really annoyed by seung hee/jae hee. She wanted to live as her real person after the plot is d. Thanks for the recap, I was watching this drama and had high hopes for it, but I can't watch it anymore. He leaves after telling Hoon that theres something he has to give him before he leaves for the DPRK, which leaves just enough time for something bad to happen to him first. The spy element is once again in full throttle with todays episode, driving the plot in at a break neck pace towards an intriguing reveal, as were ever closer yet so darn one-kidney-short in finally finding out Seung Hees true identity. He further confuses Doctor Moon when he tells him that Jae-hee isnt in the Northshes here. And for a spy who should imitate after someone, wouldn't she have already seen that video and practiced all she needs even before coming over to SK? I want to argue that Kdramas have a problem moving on to second loves. Watch Online on Viu PH i mean when they say in this drama everyone has a different heartbeat and when they test it and get it wrong in the end how dull would that be???? Doctor Stranger (Tagalog) EP 3 Eng Sub - Maraming pasyente ang dadagsa sa Myungwoo University Hospital dahil sa isang aksidente. Her task probably to keep Park Hoon check on her watch.Remember when Park Hoon hug her in that hall(? it just breaks my heart and, sorry to all the Soo-hyun/Hoon OTPs out there, but stop trying to make Soo-hyun/Hoon coupling happen, it's not going to happen. Jae-hee is Park Hoon's soul mate who was separated from him while they were escaping from North Korea; Seung-hee is a North Korean woman and is a specialist in oriental medicine anesthesia. Let's wait it out until we know JH/Seung hee's motives before we decide. *but the actors have such good chemistry omw), But you forgot that Soo-hyun kissed another guy! May 11, 2014. Soo-hyun is left with a devastated Hoon after Seung-hee leaves, and she gently coaxes him away as she promises to help him arrange another meeting with his maybe-love. The oldest cliche in kdrama is how the hero was in love with one girl first then meets the heroine. Download the latest version here. My theory is opposite-so far: Hoon finds out she is Jae Jee when he listens to her heart (second kidney and all)-but with the revelation-realizes there's a reason she's pretending, especially since this all involves North Korea, so he decides to keep quiet and pretend she's not Jae Jee in order to protect her until he can find out what it's all about. And the former Secretary Kim continues to be adorable and funny and thankfully not-evil. Rate. The same way, PH empathizes with her and they're just going to continue supporting each other that way, I hope. 1:20:30. Hopefully, Dr Weird and Dr Quack chemistry is still strong enough plus Dr Moons is still hilarious enough to keep me watching this drama. Why, though? This gives Jae-joon another chance to butt heads with Hoon as he claims that anything could happen when a patient is as old as Chang-yis mother, though he credits the surgical success to the anesthesiologists excellent preparation. Practicing? I recommended this show to a close friend of mine who didn't watch kdramas back then and she said it was way too dramatic and dropped it after the first episode. The potential of this series was so good but the execution was so poor, I couldnt bear to be even more disappointed so I just stopped. I wonder if the PD likes to twist things around justfor the sake of it. I suspect a certain segment of audience would appreciate being told what is going on rather than sit back and enjoy the mystery plot. Which leads me to the second point--2) JSY lacks intensity, hence she comes out FLAT. The plan goes awry and Hoon crosses alone. After Park Hoon's father died, he tried to flee to South Korea with Jae-hee, but lost contact with her in the end. The same way, I really do feel for PH/Dr. He asks her if she recognizes it, since its the same one he made for her when they first metbut his questions are answered with outrage, as Seung-hee accuses him of stealing what she gave to the patient. A very simple but revealing clue: When Seung Hee was watching the video of Jae Hee, she was seen practicing pronouncing Hoon name with Jae Hee's tone of voice. I doesn't sound like a case of "I think the Prime Minister wants to protect him since he owes Hoon a debt". I need more to feel more, but I doubt we'll get that since the show has obviously moved on from establishing that. Hoon has some impossible abilities( X ray eyes and hands and super hearing ability like dogs), just like Soo-ha's from IHYV. Although they did get back together Miss Korea was pretty realistic about how the main couple weren't and couldn't be the same people they'd been in high school. JSY doesn't come out as menacing at all, she seems lethargic. Hoon doesnt realize, and keeps murmuring Jae-hees name. Hahahhahaha ! Jae Hees confession to Soo Hyun that she will be leaving soon confirmed my suspicion that theres a higher probability that the ending of this series wont veer away from the original ending in the book (Doctor Stranger is based in a best-seller book Northern Doctor). I mean, who wouldn't? In South Korea, Park Hoon begins to work as doctor in a top hospital Myungwoo University Hospital. When faced with the actual face of his first and only love, poor Hoon seems to be no exception to the adage that love makes fools of us all, since hes only capable of stitching up just about everything but his own broken heart. But then north korean superspy will become the radiographer and super swaps the resulting scan to leave Dr Park in the dark. You will receive a link to create a new password via email.

Jin Se Yeon will undergo an acting transformation as the heroine of this turbulent romance that frequents between North and South Korea. [1] It aired on SBS from May 5 to July 8, 2014 on Mondays and Tuesdays at 21:55 KST (UTC+9) for 20 episodes. Thanks. When a horrendous traffic accident creates chaos at a local hospital, Park Hoon winds up preforming an unlicensed surgery to save a dying father. YASSSSS! It's going to be like all the othersSeung-hee is either going to leave or get killed and he will end up with Soo-Hyun. There were so many elaborate plots and set-ups for a seemingly small thing. There were multiple (four, if I remember right) such competitions held over several episodes. She put it on Soo Hyun's mother's wrist and was upset when Hoon found it. Honestly, by the time the backstory and reasons were revealed, I still didnt care. At this point I have little interest in what happens to Jae Hee. The stylist must have been horrified. Chairman Oh reminisces about Soo-hyuns mother fondly, claiming that, despite everything, his feelings for her mother were genuine. It was a never ending one -upmanship in the hospital and as said by others, the ML and FL (who I was surprised was the FL and not Kang Sora) had zero chemistry. Hoon tries making her feel better by mentioning that she has Jae-joon (with a big nose, ha) to do the same for her. Jae-Joon also lost his mother to grief. Forget about lead roles in major dramas, she needs to take it slow and develop her skills. Though admittedly, I didnt expect that Doctor will be making this particular plot point reveal before even reaching the halfway cour. shes so cute with her dimples and cheeks and more endearing. That was our plan from the start.". but to rate it, i would say 7.5, im not that a picky of watching drama unless its really that boring or problematic then thats another topic. I understand people shipping Hoon/Soo Hyun she's easy to like and the actors have some nice chemistry (I don't see it as romantic chemistry myself Hoon's way too wrapped up in JH to even notice other women) but as this was Seung Hee's introduction week I'm not quite ready to abandon the Show's OTP. The mood and tone at that shot is not meant to be that. I want more of these scenes. I will mention the details of the plot holes in a spoiler section below. Regardless of Jae-joons defense, Soo-hyun asks him to take it easy on Hoonafter all, they work together now. Indeed, one of the many reasons to how Hoon became the person that he is now, is largely because of Jae Hee too. . I don't know how this writer can create a show based on nothing but plot holes and unbelievable stuff..and yet here I am, happily taking it all in. 13.4K Views. Still I have a weakness for Hoon & Jae Hee story, I want them to be together so bad after everything they've gone through. I really liked watching his character development and all the obstacles he had to go through in terms of his heart. i loved this episode every bit of it . the pace has slowed down way too much thats probably because i am more a movie person rather than series. i am not one of those who can take the anticipation thats probably the reason why i loved the first two episode where things happened quick and there were unexpected twist at every turn which only made it even more interesting for me and got me hooked on to the show permanently. from ep 5 on the show has ceratinly slowed down may be it is finally time to fit the zigsaw bit by bit. and while doing so the drama now has caught on to the romantic side of it by bring in jae hee completely into the picture which i am loving so so much.. i was afraid that we would barely get to see her but am grateful that it is doesn't happen to be so instead acc to the preview we will get to see more of hoon and jae hee which is super awesome dont' let me down show. But before she can even turn her head, she focuses instead on Director Choi as he enters, recognizing him as the man who got her out of the prison camp. Still, after Jin Soo shot Hoon and they fell I thought that easily the most moving moment of the show and genuinely felt it an apt place to leave their story in peace. The two characters Jin Se Yeon plays have direct opposite atmospheres about them in the revealed pictures. My possible answers is Kim Tae Seol (Prime Minister Assistant) is the one who saved Jae Hee & Hoon. weird. i hope she doesnt lose that by becoming a biotch. to me, there's a difference between the two i'm not sure if it's the same for you). Hoon remembers her kidney transplant (that he performed), which would leave the real Jae-hee with only one kidney. I am too invested in the show's otp since the 1st ep. Through chance circumstances, he gets hired as a surgeon in Myungwoo University Hospital andmeets an anesthesiologist by the name Han Seung-Hee who looksexactlylike Hoons Song Jae-Hee. Director Jin Hyuk previously directed Brilliant Legacy (2009), City Hunter (2011), Master's Sun (2013). Do I see lots of interaction? After Seung-hee officially introduces herself to the rest of the Cardiothoracic Crew, Hoon asks for a minute of her timeonly he calls her formally as Seung-hee now. LOL , good for you then, at least someone was convinced with her acting in that scene :D. - I'm trying to figure out how to fit the flashback into the history b/n him and Hon. Once I decided on something, another clue or fact would pop up and I was thrown into a loop again. She tries very hard to be a good doctor even though she doesnt have the talent so that she can prove herself to her father, whos the chairman of the hospital. Have you seen it? Meanwhile, he found a girl that looks exactly like Jae-hee, Doctor Han Seung-hee, who claims not to know Park Hoon. Thinking back she was right and I'm glad she didn't watch any more of the drama lolol. Not at all. Park Hoon became a genius thoracic surgeon. Isang babaeng kamukhang-kamukha ni Jae Hee ang makikita ni Hoon. Did Bodyguard Lollipop shoot everyone else and then help him? I love her character she feels like a real human with emotions and I love how she is starting to feel for PH. I didnt like that they made a competition out of important surgeries. if (d.getElementById(id)) return; Many Korean actors/actress do drama while having concerts and/or variety shows at the same time. Thank you for your patience. Just like how no two people have the same face. He thinks back to when he held Jae-hee to his heart and said that their heartbeats were the same. Sumedha spends her days reading books, bingeing Kdramas, drawing illustrations, and blogging while listening to Lo-Fi music. Doctor Stranger is currently the only drama outta the current bunch thats got me hooked. Girlfriday, hope you had a good laugh because i certainly did when i stumbled onto this old postXD. And since theres a convenient shortage of anesthesiologists, Seung-hee steps up to the plate to help(?) I still do hope to see Jae Joon make a turn around and be the proper lover to win back Soo Hyuns heart which will inevitably only be broken by pining too much to our Dr Stranger. But the plot is so frustrating I'm irritated. But in the video scene, JH looked somewhat awake/conscious of her actions when she was saying "hoon ah" and holding out her hand. Anyhow, I like Soohyun but I can't just dislike Jae Hee/Seung Hee yet..even if she end up as bad spy all along, I think I will still like her more. Learn how your comment data is processed. Though these questions surrounding Seung Hees identity is at the forefront of the shows current plot point, what continues to intrigue me more is the equally confusing Big Mission that must involve Hoon. He also got shot and fell into the lake. :). He became a genius cardiothoracic surgeon after attending medical school in North Korea. but yeah honestly 16 eps is enough for me since im slow watching kdramas. here, she's playing someone interesting, and I'm looking forward to seeing her (haven't watched yet). I'll keep watching because I am a glutton for punishment and I have hope that it will make sense soon. yes, that trope has been overused but i REFUSE to believe that Seung-hee is someone else who looks exactly like her (or fixed her face to look like JH) or is committed to being a NK spy knowing everything that had happened to Hoon. Do not like her either, not sure why. If we cant connect to any of the people in power who are out to get Hoon (because everyone is out to get Hoon), we need at least one person with higher knowledge who can act as Hoons guide to the world of political-turned-medical tomfoolery. But when she merely blinks confusingly, Hoon asks desperately, Cant you recognize me?. That was what I thought too! Using Myung Woo University Hospital as the background, the drama portrays a story of love and competition with the characters standing in the center of a North Korean conspiracy to select the team members of the surgery team that will operate on the South Korean Prime Minister Jang Seok Joo (Cheon Ho Jin.). S1.E1 Episode #1.1 In a last minute effort to stop a war between North and South Korea, Doctor Park Cheol and his son Park Hoon are sent to the north to perform heart surgery on the North Korean leader. Hes back in Myungwoo to destroy the hospital, and the chairman with it, to get revenge. I did like the hug though, his hand was actually in her hair! 2) Han Jae Joon and Oh Soo Hyun. To further affirm that notion, give notice how SH falls under the good girl archetype and Jae Joon ends up being the villainous and equally covetous boyfriend when normally its the other way around. Whenever Seung-hee passes by Hoon there is this dramatic editing with slow motion and dramatic music that forces us to believe in their relationship. Its not realistic, especially since it happened ALL THE TIME. It is like the black hole of plot holes. In terms of the two (2) kidneys, I believe they were referring to kidney transplant patient. My OTP, please don't break my heart like the last time with Chilbong team T_T The contrast between Kmovie dialogue and Kdrama dialogue is amazing. Some plot lines just really didn't add up and I find myself confused by the end of each episode. Afterall, not everyone enjoys or understands the mystery and plot. well, no i dont need that. The writers went through the effort of keeping Jin Soo alive for the final showdown with Hoon & Jae Hee only for it to essentially mean nothing. I hope you never forget that, Seung-hee replies. Shes Jae-hee! he says, tears welling in his eyes. I just donotlike the way Seung-Hees character was written and directed. Kailangan tumulong si Hoon dahil sa kakulangan sa doktor. Welcome! I happen to see lots of interaction between him and Dr Moon too. Please Director-nim scold him Has anyone thought that maybe Jin Se Yeon's problem is burn out(extreme fatigue)? Unbeknownst to her, Jae-joon is watching from a distance. And there Soo-hyun is, staring at the two of them like the crazy men they are.
