Also, I have seen the main actress in this and Born Again and I have since refused to watch any of her shows. Park Hae-jin as Han Jae-joon / Lee Sung-hoon Kim Ji-hoon as young Lee Sung-hoon PM Jang might be an important person, but I dont think he has the same clout nor is he even remotely comparable to that of NKs great leader, that his death will ignite yet another upheaval of nuclear proportions. Indeed, one of the many reasons to how Hoon became the person that he is now, is largely because of Jae Hee too. It's acceptable if she's only playing a straight-up villain part, but she's not, the viewers need to be able to sympathize with her and we're unable to do so. It is no wonder this is the worst hospital in Korea where people can just kill and steal patients at will, since about half the staff seems to be a NK spy or working with the North.

For that I take the Park Hoon-Jae Hee/Seung Hee couple as the more worthwhile couple over the cute and sassy Hoon-Soo Hyun. Plus he's FIERCELY loyal to JH and it's so OOC for him to be falling for So Hyeon. Meanwhile, a stone-faced Seung-hee tells Agent Cha that the whole act was devised so that Hoon would believe that Jae-hee is alive. Doctor Stranger - Episode 3. She really CANNOT act.

Hoon remembers her kidney transplant (that he performed), which would leave the real Jae-hee with only one kidney. or I mean, conveying all those emotions and inhabiting all those characters must be exhausting.

Right now, I don't want PH to end up with Soohyun, but neither do I want him to end up with Jaehee. Thanks. If you dont believe me, shoot me.. I like JSY and I recognize her limitations too and I'm glad that someone else is able to give a constructive criticism that doesn't go beyond the superficial "oh I like the other actress more, why can't she be the lead" mantra. Anyway, that whole Seung Hee/Jae Hee story line is boring to me because I don't like Jin Se Yeon much as an actress. Doctor Stranger. Somehow. Thanks for a lovely recap Head2no! So yeah, probably right time to bring on a huge revelation. Jae-joon in surgery. But thats just a minor detail (admittedly one of many) that I can easily overlook as I'm loving this show so far! fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs); 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. First Loves are supposed to be the purest, the most intense, the most passionate experiences, so much that people often give up partners they have been with for YEARS to go back to their first love (Angel Eyes), and suffer for decades because of a tragic first love (Moon Embracing the Sun, Missing You).

Lets hope I didnt forget everything about this show because I watched it months back lol. Foolishly, I was too happy to notice and just typed this along the way. Min width: 500px. in fact, i didn't enjoy it because somehow it felt more unnatural. this was her worst scene ever in DrStanger [at least for me] she stood there with 1 expression on her face and her mouth and eyes wide open , even when she was holding PH's hand and about to fall in the river her eyes and face expression were the same, empty, not like a person who is about to die, thanks God jong suk was there to save that scene he made me cry, he broke my heart he made me feel his loss and pain. Oof what foolish plot holes. The first few episodes were good but the rest left such a bad taste in my mouth. The head surgeon (currently the chairman) did not apologize at all. Since then,hes been looking for Jae-hee. The conspiracy thickens. I found one recurring thing unbelievable. There are a lot of fun dramatic possibilities if Hoon starts operating on the basis that Seung-hee and Jae-hee are the same person, since he could start putting his brilliant mind to work in figuring out what happened to her and whyespecially if he has to do his investigating while pretending to buy her disguise. Just because I enjoy Soohyun's character more doesn't make me pro-Sora or anti-JSY. Hoon and Chang-yi ask Director Choi for some clarification, and we see in flashback how he was the contact in North Korea that made the deal to get Chang-yis mom out. Doctor Moon rejoices, since this means she cant be a spy, while Hoon starts to accept what seems to be the truth: that Seung-hee isnt Jae-hee. I find her bland and boring either way. I want to watch the tension between PH and JJ, not over Soohyun, but over what being a doctor means to both of them. But then north korean superspy will become the radiographer and super swaps the resulting scan to leave Dr Park in the dark. At this point I have little interest in what happens to Jae Hee. I must confess that I did not study science much while I was young. is each heart beat of human being very characteristic that we cannot find an identical heart beat or similar heart beat of someone else as Hoon says? Wohoo! Girlfriday, hope you had a good laugh because i certainly did when i stumbled onto this old postXD. Not just Soo-hyun's but also pretty Doctor Moon. The Han Seung-hee that I created!, Seung-hee didnt argue that point, and instead reminded Agent Cha of their mission: Ill remain Han Seung-hee until the prime ministers surgery team is created. Hoon is arrested. Jae-hee is alive. Thats where Chairman Oh finds her to tell her that hes given Hoon another chance, even though he claims it was her who changed his mind and not the prime minister.

(My attachment to these fictional characters are getting weirder and weirder.). xfbml : true, // parse social plugins on this page 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. forgive my denseness but some what confused, Ill remain Han Seung-hee until the prime ministers surgery team is created.

Hoons eyes grow wide the second Seung-hee unmasks in front of him, but he manages to contain himself this time. Doctor Moon wonders whether Seung-hee could be a North Korean spy, and asks Hoon if she had any other identifying markers. That would be the most welcome surprise. However, just as much as people want to see the 'first love' trope be subverted, I myself want to see the "why can't guys and girls be just friends" and "no romance policy" be upheld more. Urgh. He became a genius cardiothoracic surgeon after attending medical school in North Korea. Dream High, That Winter The Wind Blows, and Biscuit Teacher Star Candy, if anyone's interested in knowing. This is a very complex character to play and casting JSY in it is not a good choice. Jae-Joon also lost his mother to grief. I can name three dramas where the heroine (most definitely the heroine in that case) kissed someone who was not the other half of her OTP, but eventually got the boy anyway, and one of those dramas is sorta linked to both Kang Sora and Lee Jong-seok - she starred in the sequel, and the writer of that drama went on to write a drama he starred in that I think we all know ;). After that, Ill live as Song Jae-hee. Laughing awkwardly, Soo-hyun denies the claim, and explains that Hoon acted so strangely around Seung-hee because the dead woman he truly loves does look uncannily like her. Three cheers for Hoon being proactive! The series premiered on Tue May 06, 2014 on SBS (KR) and A Happy Ending (S01E20) last aired on Tue Jul 08, 2014. . also. Only, when he nods off again, we see that Seung-hee really was sitting there, having been called by Soo-hyun. After Park Hoon's father died, he tried to flee to South Korea with Jae-hee, but lost contact with her in the end. It'd have been nice if we had more of that, because the memories PH has of JH, from what we see, it's so limited. Naturally Dr Park will insist that the kidneys get scanned too. Doctor Strangers new mishmash of a preview, Doctor Stranger pushes premiere, releases teaser, First script read for medical melo Doctor Stranger, http://gizmodo.com/5884650/your-heartbeat-could-be-your-password, http://koalasplayground.com/2014/05/20/dr-stranger-episode-6-recap/. var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; Have fun, ya lucky Beanies. I like Kang Sora so much more than Jin Seyeon, and Soo Hyun has been so well written and performed so far. Did Bodyguard Lollipop shoot everyone else and then help him? All I can say, she might be the bad one,the spy from the very first scene. 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. Meanwhile, he found a girl that looks exactly like Jae-hee, Doctor Han Seung-hee, who claims not to know Park Hoon. While a lot of us can spot the obvious stuff, that is something I doubt any of us knew. 5. Two, how did Jae-hee survive the fall the first time in Budapest? Doctor Stranger (Korean: ; RR:Dakteo Yibangin) is a 2014 South Korean television series starring Lee Jong-suk, Jin Se-yeon, Park Hae-jin and Kang So-Ra. The oldest cliche in kdrama is how the hero was in love with one girl first then meets the heroine. Image must be about this episode. var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; TV-14. XD Right after the scene where Hoon gets knocked out by the flying basin at Soo Hyun's mom's house Dr Moon showed up. I liked the PH/Soohyun scenes because those felt real. Poor Hoon is so bewildered that his Jae-hee doesnt recognize him, and Seung-hee ends up giving both halves of the bracelet to Soo-hyun before she heads into the hospital for work. The North Korean scenes were nice but by far not enough considering what happened afterwards.". 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. In reality, how many of us have looked back to past boyfriends or old flames and asked ourselves (What did I see in him/her at the time?). 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. So many has mentioned that Seung Hee is practicing/copying JH in the laptop scene. He took Park Hoon along because Hoons mother refused to care for him. 3. Thats like drama speak of youre never getting with the male lead, girl! =/. We start off with Park Hoons dadPark Cheola brilliant heart surgeon, being called to North Korea. May wrote, the show 'forces' one to accept their relationship. Go for the show if you really like Lee Jong-Suk and want to see more of him. There were multiple (four, if I remember right) such competitions held over several episodes. Its a good thing when you don't really care that much about the show with all your heart, that it doesn't matter much in which direction it goes, as long as its entertaining ! Lee Ki-chan Meet You Now () from the OST. Surprise me, Show, pls surprise me. Hopefully, Dr Weird and Dr Quack chemistry is still strong enough plus Dr Moons is still hilarious enough to keep me watching this drama. There's no logical reason to love someone in kdrama anyway. I really liked watching his character development and all the obstacles he had to go through in terms of his heart. You deserve an extraordinary show to recap after putting up splendidly with all this crazy ones . The whole SeungHee/JaeHee reminds me the Chinese movie Black Cat (similar to the well-known French's Nikita or American's Point of No Return) In Black Cat, the female lead was dead then was revived and a chip was inserted in her brain to make her a killer. 3. Genre: drama, medical, romance, thriller. My OTP, please don't break my heart like the last time with Chilbong team T_T On the other hand, even though I'm not a Kang So Ra fan, I like her character here, and she has great chemistry with Lee Jong Suk. In both characters that I mentioned above, you can definitely see them focused on whatever murderous intent that they are trying to convey. I mean, we thought that the heroine is good,but end up bad all along. She falls unconscious again before she can answer, and Seung-hee takes over her care. I think it's about time for them to reveal at least a little what this entire conspiracy is about, because for now, it doesn't make much sense. But now that Hoon is back in the hospital and Chairman Oh is under Prime Minister Jangs thumb, Seung-hee claims that everything is going to plan. Five, Jae-Joon knew that they survived. But apparently PH looked really disappointed when he found out that she had 2 kidneys - but shouldn't he know that she would have 2 since she was the one who did the transplant? I remember that feeling clearly. Okay, I'm way out of topic here. Drunk hoon calls for jae hee because he's a bery love sick boi 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. Seung-hee ends up offering her home for Hoon to crash in, but while leading him to the bed, Soo-hyun trips and ends up wrapped in his arms. Never mind that multiple years have gone by and each partner has probably grown and matured in different directions due to different experiences. Since I did not really notice the songs in this show and dont care to listen to them specifically, I dont have a section for my favourite songs. what about her scene as Jae hee in Budabet at that bridge where she & park hoon were surrounded by men with guns wanted to kill them ? Yeah to me there was only one end game from the beginning in there but that's b/c the writing was good and set it up so logically and emotionally resonant that I appreciate the ride of getting there the entire time. LJS did 2 dramas and 3 movies last year, half of them overlapped, and the quality of his acting did not suffer. I was really starting to worry watching Hoon spend most of the episode in a permanent state of reaction, which is understandable for someone like him but still not that fun to sit through. Sometimes when leads don't have chemistry, it's fine because the storyline is engaging, but wow dr stranger had a frustrating storyline PLUS Park Hoon and Jae Hee had zero chem. They were the most expected couple. Moon misunderstood that as Jae-hee/ Seung-hee has one because she donated not received! This is the first time I've watched her so I can't really tell. Which leads me to the second point--2) JSY lacks intensity, hence she comes out FLAT. Heartbeats are not like fingerprints. Ummm she hid her identity inorder to protect hoon, i dont understand why people hated her so much, watch the god damn drama carefully, Your email address will not be published. Hoon slams his glass down. Why must it be him? Send. Hahahaha! To me, Jae Hee never really felt like the heroine in the drama. On a side note, I love soohyun. Of course don't get me wrong, shipping is totally fine, and I ship many drama couples too. I think it's a twin- like in the Master's Sun. But that is exactly the problem. Well, it turns out that when he was a teenager, his father passed away during surgery due to medical malpractice. I really enjoyed the drama because of the unique premise and think that LJS and JSY had great chemistry. He's desperate to save the woman he left behind in North Korea. The plot holes were annoying as heck. 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???? The actor also played it that he always had a playful and a bit tyrannical vibe with his much put upon secretary while his interaction with his female lead was a lot more layered. Whys he in Myungwoo, you ask? This website is still under development. 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. Although, I have no idea what's north korea group plan for Hoon Gotta agree with everyone that KSR and LJS acting is tremendously top notch in every episode. Sure, he doesnt make much sensea hospital director who perfected his hand at smuggling refugees because hes sorrybut since hes literally the one guy who seems to have Hoons back, that instantly makes him better than most. Doctor Stranger is a 65 minute mini-series-drama-action-romance starring Lee Jong-suk as Park Hoon, Kang So-ra as Oh Soo-Hyun and Park Hae-jin as Han Jae-Joon.
