Doctorul Fugar (2014)

I am so on the fence about this drama. It had such a strong start with a number of different moving storylines. Yet, I feel like all these story lines kinda trickled out. Even so the majority of the leads did an excellent job. Lee Jong Suk had probably one of the most compelling performances even compared to his roles in W and Pinocchio. His depiction of the lead makes his character very likable and touching in parts. Both Park Hae Jin and Kang So Ra had very notable performances too. I have to say the weakest part of this drama has to be Jin Se Yeon's character. I'm not sure if it's a flaw in the writing or just Jin's acting ability. I think from the beginning of the drama the audience is supposed to question Jin's intentions, but the drama is never able to aptly prove to the audience that they are seeing her genuine feelings ever. So Lee's dedication and love for a character most of the viewership can't trust becomes this drama's fatal flaw. I think this drama missed the mark in the later episodes. I do still think Lee Jong Suk and Park Hae Jin fans should still see this drama, just prepare yourself.

I don't like dropping dramas which is why I tend to push through and watch the whole thing no matter what, but this is the first actual time that I really needed to force myself to keep watching. If it weren't for the brilliant cast and the gorgeousness that is Park Hae Jin (excuse my bias, but can you blame me, really!?), I would have dropped this a long time ago.

Wasted potential. That practically sums up this drama. Convoluted, repetitive and just outright ridiculous plot lines that, in the end, seemed to have served little to no purpose in the first place. The redeeming points were definitely the OST and the cast which, for the most part, did an amazing job bringing their poorly developed characters to life. I say for the most part since unfortunately, Jin Se Yeon failed to deliver any sort of emotion in most of her scenes, which is why I felt it extremely hard to develop any sort of feeling for her character.

Doctor Stranger went from a 9 to a 6 in my book. Probably would've been a 4 if not for the great music and the amazing performances of Lee Jong Suk, Park Hae Jin, Kang So Ra and Chun Ho Jin in particular.

Overall, a huge disappointment.

The second female lead syndrome is real.

This drama is perfect for medical students or someone interested in shows within the medical field, it gives viewers some ideas how to work in the hospital with all the surgeries and stuff, but the show also focuses more on politics, competitions and in terms of the story especially the love story part ahhhh... I always cringe. At first I find this drama very exciting, the drama started as good like a Bibimbap they presented different kinds of ingredients in the first few episodes such as action, thriller, drama, and romance. But in my experienced, as I continued to take my adventure in this show just like a bibimpap they all mixed up together and I get confused and I find it very disappointing like you want plot twists but because of too many plot twists I don't know what the characters are doing, like what??! I'm confused please enlighten me!!! I started to get bored watching at episode 6 and decided to put it on hold but I still give it a chance why not?! its Lee Jung Suk!! but after episode 8 and 9 sorry, but I will give it a no... >-<

If you are asking if I will recommend it? No and Maybe?. If I'm gonna watched it again? No.
