Hospital Playlist
4 oamenii au considerat această recenzie utilă
It isn't the typical medical drama with dramatic surgery miracles. It's somewhat realistic with ups and downs. The drama is a collection of stories of the daily lives of doctors and patients. This type of show is always a hit or miss for me, but I loved Hospital Playlist's storytelling. I was always either laughing or crying. Each character is unique so I quickly got invested in the entire cast. Time flew while I watched each episode because everything felt so natural, like I was in the hospital with them.
There's a bit of a retro vibe for fans of the Reply series, but it isn't a major part of the show. As with every Shin Won Ho drama, every scene is crucial and hints to what will happen later in the show.
Looking forward to watching Season 2 next year!

I had a love-hate relationship with this show the entire time. I like JHI and CSB, so I started watching with high expectations, but dropped the show after two episodes. The start of the drama was very confusing. They introduce Jisoo, who is the catalyst for the plot. The way they brought her into the story was... creepy. She's a bit strange too. All her lines were vague and left me with a lot of questions. I guess they were trying to make viewers curious about the plot and build up hype for the later episodes, but I hated it and dropped the show. I picked it back up again because I was bored. I had no expectations while watching the first half of the show, because I didn't think the drama was that great. I watched this alongside "When The Weather Is Fine", and enjoyed that way more. (They have different vibes but if you're debating between the two, watch that instead lol) But, I can say that this got better as the show progressed. Seeing how different people deal with love & death was interesting.
At first, I liked the combination of slice of life & technology. I've seen Jung Hae In in "similar" dramas (Something in the Rain & Spring Night), but the AI aspect was unique and somewhat refreshing. But as the drama progressed, the idea of the device became a little ridiculous to me. I couldn't look past how unrealistic it was. Slice of life & unrealistic tech? Not a good mix.
Another thing that bothered me was Moon Soonho. She's nosy for no reason, and I thought they'd give us more background on her so we'd empathize with her character but nope. I don't think she added anything to this show. Her scenes annoyed me most of the time.
I grew to love everyone at Eunjoo's Homestay, where Seowoo lives. It reminded me why I chose to stay at a similar place during college. The people living at the homestay have vastly different personalities, but eventually become a family. The homestay was one of the best parts of the show - it's where all the character development happened.
I have many complaints about A Piece Of Your Mind, but I'm a sucker for slice of life so I kept watching. I wouldn't call this a "healing" show because it wasn't healing for me personally, but it's a show about healing. Everyone faces slumps at some point of their lives. This drama shows how people accept the past and move on. I could relate to it because I recently got myself out of a huge slump and finally picked myself up again after years of shutting myself out of the world. The acting, aesthetics & OSTs are decent, but I don't think I would recommend this to others. JHI & CSB were cute but there are better dramas out there.
As much as I complain about it, I was surprised by its low ratings. I feel bad that the show was cut short, but I can't imagine how boring it would've gotten with 4 more episodes.
As a final note: JHI's good at these kinds of roles, but pls try something different next time. I'm BEGGING;;;

Jung Somin carried, show lacked character development
It's worth the watch if you like slice of life. I loved Jung Somin's acting a lot. She's such a gem. Her natural acting was perfect for this role. The side actors & actresses were A+ as well. If you like shows that focus on side characters, you'll probably like this too.My biggest takeaways were the dialogues. The writer did a great job with the poems and stories they included. I can guarantee they will give you a new perspective to life. My favorite one was about when a new person enters your life.
But I've got to say, it wasn't as good as people made it seem. The plot was nothing special and neither was Lee Minki's acting. I wasn't impressed by him at all. Sehee (his character) is robotic and seemingly emotionless. He eventually falls for Jiho, but my biggest complaint is they didn't show HOW Sehee falls in love with her. He suddenly started thinking about her and liking her. I wish the show put more effort into his character development.
The character development with the side characters was a little more promising. Jiho's and Sehee's friends start dating too but they're complete opposites. I can see how they fell in love, but still - I wish there were more scenes showing how it happened.
My favorite character was Jiho's mom played by Kim Sunyoung. Jiho's mom has first hand experience living in a patriarchal household. She made sure Jiho wouldn't suffer the same way she did. KSY did a fantastic job of showing a mother's sacrifice and love for her daughter. I only cried once during the show and it was while watching one of her scenes (with the album).
The ending (the most important part for me!) was completely rushed. I was disappointed because the side plots were introduced carefully in the beginning but there wasn't great closure for them. The show did a good job of showing how marriage isn't as easy as it looks, but in the end, everyone got married to each other?! I'm sure they could've done a better job because the plot was slow at times, so there was definitely opportunity to build out important parts of the show better.
I probably shouldn't have given this show such a high rating, but I liked Jung Somin's acting THAT much lol.
