A Lesson in Self-Prioritization
I don't know why there are so many negative reviews, but in my opinion, 'Doctor Cha' was a decent watch. Despite the cliche elements, like cheating and others, what really caught my attention was the integration of comedy elements. It added a light-hearted and enjoyable aspect to the show, making it binge-worthy.
The acting was also satisfying, with all the actors delivering great performances. Especially, Kim Byung Chul. He played his character so convincingly that I found myself genuinely disliking him, even amidst the comedic elements.
Regarding the ending
Despite all the bad reviews, I found it to be satisfying and well-executed. While I initially hoped for Doctor Cha to end up with Roy Kim, I came to understand and appreciate her decision not to pursue a romantic relationship with him. Instead, it was refreshing to witness her embark on a new journey of self-discovery, focusing solely on herself. I was impressed by the transformation she underwent, breaking free from her old mindset of constantly sacrificing herself for the happiness of others. She embraced self-prioritization, dedicated herself to her career, and ultimately found true fulfillment in her life, exceeding her initial expectations. Personally, I am genuinely content with how her story concluded.
As for the husband, I agree that he should have faced more significant consequences for his actions towards both women and his children. However, the portrayal of both women leaving him behind and moving forward with their lives, finding greater contentment in their lives was a good revenge for me. Also, the scene where he sits alone in his new room after his promotion, with no one to share the news, was a powerful reminder of the consequences of his actions.
Additionally, I appreciated the portrayal of the children no longer being at odds with each other. As Cha Jung Sook pointed out, none of the unfortunate circumstances was their fault, yet they were deeply affected by them. It was important to remind them that the responsibility lay with the adults, not with them.
Overall, Doctor Cha was a good watch for me, and I recommend it to those looking for an easy-to-watch drama with some fun and inspirational elements!
