There are many things I want to say about this drama. First off the whole cencept is very ambitious since it's doing a story including North Korea and how there were many times the main 2 leads couldv'e died. Also this is the first Drama and will probably be for a while in which I actually fell into the whole sencond lead syndrome, I generally supported Quack and Park Hoon for the forst half of the show and I really enjoyed thier interactions together.

This story has many coincedences between Park Hoon and Jae Hee in which they call fate but to be honest, in terms of this story I have to believe they were fated to be together, the amount of shit they had to go through to get to the happy ending was alot. Some people are saying it wouldv'e been better if Park Hoon and Jae Hee died and everyone accepted it, but since I'm such a sucker to good endings I was actually hoping thier was a good ending in which they both lived and they happily live thier lives together and that is what we got.

With Park Hoon, he really had a tough life and like Joon Jae said at the end of the show. Behind Park Hoon's happy exterior, he is going through a lot of pain and stress. During his time in North Korea after spliting up with Jae Hee, he had to work as a doctor in which sacrifices lives in order to increase his medical experience and knowledge, so he was unwillingly killing heathy people to grow. Throughout his time in South Korea I really enjoyed his character and when I thought he was going to give up and lay down, he comes back up and makes his comeback. This show had a severe case of second lead syndrome to the point I wanted it to happen, but this came with the fact that Jae Hee wasn't fully likable when she first came to South Korea. Park Hoon's relationship with Soo Hyeon (Quack) was a breath of fresh air from the tense and stressful relationship between Jae Hee and Park Hoon. Quack was very light hearted and her backstory just made me support her even more to teh point even Jae Hee tried to set them up at the end and would leave after everything is done. Soo Hyeon was what this drama and Park Hoon needed and even though they didn't work out, I was fine.

Jae Hee's character is very complex because she is originally from North Korea and falls in love with a South Korean, and also her family had very different political beliefs than what a North Korean should have so that got her put in a detention center. Near the end of the show when she was trying to push Hoon away, she said that she regrets holding onto Cha Jin Soo's hand to meet Hoon because she didn't know how much dnager it would put him in but her 'greed' which was longing to see Hoon was large. Her relationship with Hoon was actually nice to watch because it felt rewarding after seeing how much they went through for the whole show so when they first reconnected as Hoon and Jae Hee I was really happy that happened but felt a bit sorry for Soo Hyeon. Overall I liked her character but there were times where I found her infuriating when she tried to push Hoon away saying she was take all the pain basically just so Hoon and his mother would be fine, but now that I think of it, it's actually very mature of her and mustv'e took alot out of her.

I actually like the OST in this show, especially the one called 'Stranger' by Bobby Kim, that OST just shouts at me for being a good OST and everythime it came on I loved the song becausee the lyrics fit the theme of the show very well saying 'If your not here, I'm just a Stranger' Meaning that if Jae Hee isn't with Hoon, then he will feel like he doesn't belong anywhere and it's quite sad honestly.

If your loking for a drama in which is Star Crossed love typed romance with a heavy mix of medical and also a Second Lead Syndrome you can actually support then watch Doctor Stranger.
