Watch with Different Expectations
News of this drama piqued my interest because Ra Mi Ran is its female lead (liked her since Reply 1988). When I learned that Cha Cheong Hwa (I could still hear her "MAMA!" in Mr. Queen) would be part of it as well I got even more interested! Plus, Lee Seo Jin taking on a comedic role for a drama - I didn't expect him to do slapstick comedy after seeing him in Three Meals A Day - is something to be curious about as well.
To be honest, there were episodes when I fell asleep, in midst of being confused of how should view this drama as: it's like a documentary (the camera was shaky - should give one a docu effect?) but not really. I also questioned, "Why?" Ra Mi Ran's character was cute but a little brainless, Cha Cheong Hwa was just there, trying not to work hard as clinic's secretary... There was a teeny tiny bit of time when I asked, "Why waste their acting prowess in this simple story?" It was just a plain sitcom. Not much depth, no drama.
Then I decided to throw away my expectations and just go with the story's flow.
Only those who stay until the end will discover the little gems this drama hides.
But I marked this one as "no spoilers" so I'll just tell you what to watch out for: inspirational lines, laughter and warmth, served a bit quite differently than the usual dramas we watch. Oh, also, expected really obvious product placements for more spice. Haha. Best episode is the last one.
I prescribe this drama to doctors who wants to escape for some thirty minutes in between work shifts and to those who are into the original webtoon.
