A fast-paced season 3 with the usual flair of exaggeration and humour

Back in 2021, I marathoned the first two seasons in a week during a period of "sabbatical". While I thought S2's storyline was way too far-fetched and its cohesiveness generally weaker than S1, I thoroughly enjoyed S3.

The good: Plenty of emergency medical cases and surgeries to satiate the watcher. Questions on the needs for the welfare and protection of doctors are raised. Doctors having to make heartbreaking choices in a disaster scenario. Lee Hong Nae 's acting (makes me really root for his glittering success). Lee Sin Young's acting (makes me want to shake him by the shoulders until his head falls off, then give him a soda). Good amount of comedic moments.

The bad: Pointless political disputes. Not enough of Dr. Bae Moon Jeong. Dude needs more screentime and backstory. Nonsensical developments in the final two episodes. Nevertheless, it's okay, I accept it.

S3 had been an entertaining ride. I recommend it. Especially if you can't get enough eyefuls of surgical props like those rubbery, yellowed bodies they cut into, revealing red dyes and pink matter.
