I've watched this drama a long time ago, but decided to write a review just now (currently I'm watching the second season).
Why I watch this drama in the first place? Simply because I am a big fan of medical dramas. Coincidentally I stumbled across this drama and there, I watch it and end up hooked.
Story: I've watch plenty of medical dramas. But this one, has one of the best story, I can say! The storyline is original, unique, and really interesting. The surgery scenes are realistic (never been watching a REAL surgery but speaking from hours of watching medical dramas experiences). If you look for dirty hospital politics, this drama has the dirtiest hospital politics you can imagine. It left your jaw hanging, it makes you want to pull some hairs off the doctors' scalp. This drama gives you various emotions throughout the series.
Casts: The main attraction of this drama, IMO. Yonekura Ryoko and Daimon Michiko officially becomes one of my favorite character & actress. Her acting is terrific, and her character is very charismatic. Badass, carefree, but brilliant surgeon, portrayed really well. The supporting character is outstanding as well (I especially loved Jonouchi). Definitely deserved a 10/10
Music: Nothing remarkable
Rewatch Value: Truthfully, I never rewatch the dramas I've watched. But this drama, I think I would want to rewatch it sometime in the future. This is a drama that will never get me bored.
Overall: this drama is definitely one of the best medical drama I've ever watched. The character especially is interesting and charismatic. The storyline is unique, and progressed well. The only flaw of the storyline is the ending which left hanging (which, fortunately, continued to the second season). The surgery scene is realistic & educational (!). And if you look for dirty hospital politics, you've come to the right place :)
P.S: A little snippets to the second season: expect even dirtier hospital politics!
