Yes. I did the unthinkable and gave Doctor Stranger such a good rating. If you bear with me through this [hopefully] concise explanation, you'll see why. Now I'm not expecting people to agree, but to understand my viewpoint as to why I have come up with this result.
Now, lets dissect. Shall we?
1) General:
In my opinion, this is one of the best dramas to date.
It is Unique.
It is Structured.
It is Fresh.
Doctor Stranger was able to infuse different genres and intricately flow them together as to not seem forced or rushed.
2) The Plot:
The originality. That is what it is. The plot was so perfectly structured that I used it as a premise for my English final (English teacher loved it-to say the least). With the time allotted for this drama, Doctor Stranger's plot was understandable, intriguing, and sufficient. Now, if we nitpick every little detail, and fuss over every thing it is inevitable to find faults; however, generally the plot was tres bein.
3) The characters/actors:
Park Hoon: Possibly one of the strongest characters I have seen. Lee Jong Suk was able to portray the troubled, dedicated, loyal, loving, light and strong character that Park Hoon is. His character was not a One-side kind of character, but one that embodies a well rounded person. He is not too lax, too romantic, too silly, or too cold. He is a young man who is happy and funny, but at the same time he is scarred and at times cold.
Park Hae Jin: A great character, with a great messed up, sad back story. The way he treats Park hoon and Soo Hyun probably makes people dislike him, but towards the end we see how that contributes to his personality.
Oh Soo Hyun: ....Ok...In all honesty I don't see what the huge hype about her is-in terms of character at least. kang So Ra was perfectly able to play her characters role- the quirky,and hardworking chick that Oh Soo Hyun is. Yet, I don't find Oh Soo Hyun to be that "phenomenal" character people are making her seem to be. Maybe its because shes cute and all, and she acted all school-girl crushy when it came to Hoon. Nevertheless, I recognize her importance in the show and her distinct personality.
Song Jae Hee: *DRUMROLL* SURPRISE! She was my favorite character (besides Hoon and Hae Jin). She is a greatly structured character. She is not the average main girl character in a normal k-drama. She's not loved automatically (by the audience), and she does not possess the average cute/sassy/spunky/cold attitude that a lot of female main leads do. She's complex.COMPLEX.
She also represents an actual, real girl who exists in our real world with that kind of personality and mentality [Yay. Finally some people in the real world can relate!]. Shes strong, assertive, smart, cunning, loving, and brave. Holy Crap. People (the viewers) underestimate her, or write her off simply because she rubbed them off the wrong way in the beginning, or she pissed them off at some point. Don't get me wrong, she pissed me off at times as well, but at the end. *All the Awards to Jae Hee. Seriously Bro.**
Quick Note: I BEG TO DIFFER JIN SE YEON WAS GREAT IN THIS. You might not have liked her acting simply because you don't think she acted the way you think Jae Hee should have. Yet, in terms of JAE HEE and her personality and who she is, I feel like JSY nailed it.

IM SORRY. I have rambled.
3) The Music:
It was great. Five Star. Gold Star. The music suited the situations it was used for. Pretty catchy too.
4) The Romance:
GOSHDAMNIT.
Park Hoon x Jae Hee: A love that has withstood and persevered through every obstacle to reach the happiness they seriously and honestly both deserved.
Soo Hyun x Hae JIn: A love based on forgiveness and understanding or the other.
*If you want clarifications for this as well, I love and welcome anyone's message*
Wrap Up: I basically loved it and found it a source of not just drama perfection but a practical masterpiece [if it had ever been a book].
MUAH <3 To whoever read till the end. Come visit me sometime, you're worth it.
