my HEART. the FEELS.

My first review ever! :D
Not sure how this will go, but let's dive into it.

I've watched many dramas before, but Hospital Playlist is the first one I watched while it was airing. The first time I heard about this drama was when Yoo Yeon Seok got casted, and because I really enjoyed Romantic Dr. Teacher Kim, I was curious to see how he would perform in this one. So, I started watching the first episode on Netflix as per a friend's recommendation and was immediately hooked. In the span of that first hour-and-a-half-ish, I cried so much and laughed so hard. I knew right then and there that Hospital Playlist would become one of my favorite - if not favorite - dramas.

As the episodes progressed, I found that I really came to love each character featured in the story. I came to appreciate their roles in the overarching narrative of the drama, and especially loved the way writer-nim and PD-nim had them interact with the main cast (Kim Jun as Uju was especially adorable!) One thing that I really noticed was the chemistry between cast members. I think altogether they were able to portray a realistic and relatable story that truly truly warmed my heart.

Another thing that made this drama enjoyable for me was that there was no dramatic conflict-inducing incidents that are common in a lot of K-Dramas (i.e. hospital politics, a murder, chaebol families disagreeing to a relationship, etc.). The essence of this drama was really just the lives of the doctors and medical staff at Yulje Medical Center, and how they pour their hearts and souls into making sure that their patients receive the best care.

I would rate this show infinity/10 if that was possible at all. I cannot fathom how much I actually love this drama. I have the casting directors to thank for introducing me to such amazing actors - I'll definitely be looking out for more of their (future) work!

If you're like me and enjoy slice-of-life type dramas, and want an easy-going drama to watch, you would definitely enjoy Hospital Playlist. That being said, I can't wait for Season 2 to be released and to find out more about how relationships between some of the characters will develop <3
