And since theres a convenient shortage of anesthesiologists, Seung-hee steps up to the plate to help(?) For that I take the Park Hoon-Jae Hee/Seung Hee couple as the more worthwhile couple over the cute and sassy Hoon-Soo Hyun. i can see the soft side of jae-joon and it's going to be an interesting character arc for him to choose the love of his life as opposed to his career/ambitions.

Rate. we dont know what exacatly and why. * Hoon slams his glass down. As of now Doctor Stranger is pretty much about Hoon's unyielding love for her. Navigating through the nefarious plot is like mountain climbing with a 80 lb pack while being attacked by bees. According to your conviction, the production team would have to convince you of that first. Moon because gosh, those two are hilarious. Soo-hyun is left with a devastated Hoon after Seung-hee leaves, and she gently coaxes him away as she promises to help him arrange another meeting with his maybe-love. The conspiracy thickens. But when theyre (mostly) alone, she tells Hoon that despite the similarities, Seung-hee isnt Jae-hee, because she saw Jae-hee die with her own eyes.

I cant even blame those people who sputter profanities and rude comments against this series, because same as me, they are also just hugely disappointed. (The only two major aspects that redeemed this drama are the main actors and actresses performance and its cinematography. Indeed, one of the many reasons to how Hoon became the person that he is now, is largely because of Jae Hee too. Jae Hees pretense has now been shattered. Oh, YEAH! I love LJS but if PH is going to spend the entire show running around just trying to find JH, it annoys me. (My attachment to these fictional characters are getting weirder and weirder.). It was to decide who would be performing surgery on the vice president. If she's Jae Hee, why would she needs to copy her own gestures? She has no family so I don't see what possible hold that North Korea could have on her. Please enter your username or email address. We start off with Park Hoons dadPark Cheola brilliant heart surgeon, being called to North Korea. It lessens his character, one with unique background and dark history of being a doctor in the NK human lab. Wohoo! But the plot holes that Ididpick up annoyed me so much because any explanation was NOT given. I understand people shipping Hoon/Soo Hyun she's easy to like and the actors have some nice chemistry (I don't see it as romantic chemistry myself Hoon's way too wrapped up in JH to even notice other women) but as this was Seung Hee's introduction week I'm not quite ready to abandon the Show's OTP. Nice to have some real expertise in that area. Soo-hyun calls him Father for the first time in a long time, and tells him that shes sorry while thanking him for loving her mom. cookie : true, // enable cookies to allow the server to access I did like the hug though, his hand was actually in her hair!

I also like the fact that both Hoon and Seung Hee (if JH is indeed SH that is) are not pure hero or heroines, that they do have shadows beneath their seemingly brighter facades. Definitely would've drawn a tear or two from me. Song Jae-hee? Jae-hee sitting across from, and muses that this must be why people drink: so they can see the people they miss. On the one hand, Im glad the show is presenting its mystery through Hoons point of view, since we literally only know as much as he does at any given moment. A very simple but revealing clue: When Seung Hee was watching the video of Jae Hee, she was seen practicing pronouncing Hoon name with Jae Hee's tone of voice. For a moment even Soo-hyun looks lost, as she remembers the uncanny resemblance between the two but cant find a logical explanation as to what on earth is going on.

(and thoughts), Just to correct some errors: (I have posted this on Koala Playground's site): http://koalasplayground.com/2014/05/20/dr-stranger-episode-6-recap/. I found her weird. Thanks for the insight madhatter. Okay so lets see the plot holes that annoyed me so much, it almost ruined the whole story because these dont make sense. - Didn't Choi advise Dr Moon (just after the committee had an uproar after finding out Hoon's from N Korea) that Hoon is valuable to the nasty Prime Minister? And the former Secretary Kim continues to be adorable and funny and thankfully not-evil. Seung Hee, for the apparent nefarious plot that she's got herself into which I could only imagine as the means that she's willing to take to reach her end--emancipation from her NK trappings and eventually back to Hoon's hands. Entire scenes were spent kind-of-maybe-not-really trying to paint a picture of the Big Conspiracy going on, and if the point was merely to show us that there is a conspiracy without revealing anything about said conspiracy, then mission accomplished: were still confused. It was tragic, poignant, but in the spirit of the show. Some were funny, some helped the main cast but overall Im not impressed by them. definitely need more of it. Jae-joon pulls Hoon aside in order to tell him to get lost, making it a point to threaten him away from Soo-hyun. And although Hoon's undying love for Jaehee is killing me, I still want him with Dr. Quack. & 33,456 people watched this episode Watching Hoon wander through his scenes in a constant state of mental breakdown felt like watching someone go through a bad breakupand in that way, those closest to Hoon treated him like he just hadnt come to accept The Truth yet.

Some plot lines just really didn't add up and I find myself confused by the end of each episode. but i dont get why some to break it down to 30 mins or so to 32 episodes like that dont make sense but okay. I wonder if the PD likes to twist things around justfor the sake of it. How on earth did he know to find Hoon here?! i know shes probably trying to protect him or whatever by being another person but shes annoying me. this was her worst scene ever in DrStanger [at least for me] she stood there with 1 expression on her face and her mouth and eyes wide open , even when she was holding PH's hand and about to fall in the river her eyes and face expression were the same, empty, not like a person who is about to die, thanks God jong suk was there to save that scene he made me cry, he broke my heart he made me feel his loss and pain. There, Seung-hee poses for pictures with Not Jae-hees Parents, since Hoon distinctly remembers Jae-hees father as he asked him to save his daughters life. If they were trying to show that PH is madly crazily in love with JH, fine, we get that. In the drama, Jin Se Yeon plays the roles of Song Jae Hee, a North Korean medical student, and Han Seung Hee, a South Korean physician. And that hed wanted to instill hope in Hoon by smuggling Chang-yis mom outhope that, one day, hed reunite with Jae-hee.

As a child, Park Hoon (Lee Jong-suk) and his father Park Cheol (Kim Sang-joong) were tricked and sent to North Korea. It's a good thing there were Dr. Quack & Hoon cute scenes to give my little brain a break, and just when I started feeling torn between Jaejoon and Hoon (for Sohyun), he showed his greedy side and that stopped me from liking him too for Sohyun. Let's wait it out until we know JH/Seung hee's motives before we decide. @Scientia are you kidding me?? To me, the hero has always loved one person. In real medical practice, when you are the receiving kidney transplant "recipient", you will have two (2) kidneys on one (1) side of the body. My recommendation to her is to take a break and go on a long and nice holiday. Here, I am hoping for Soo Hyun & Hoon come true. I like for the fact that you try to go for the possible root of the problem and not just spout catch-phrases as if it's going to change anything. Judging by the ep 7 preview, things do seem to bode for the better. Right now, I don't want PH to end up with Soohyun, but neither do I want him to end up with Jaehee. I was very confused on the shipping side of things. Not so sure about that - for one thing, where did the video come from?

Park Hoon is eccentric (with a matching hairstyle), playful and a genius. var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; Rumors are spreading that Jin Se Yeon herself suggested the hairstyle for Han Seung Hee during her character study, making this the first time since her debut that Jin Se Yeon has bobbed hair, thus she is showing a different passion towards acting. Go for the show if you really like Lee Jong-Suk and want to see more of him. I agree. Though I enjoyed the medical suspense part, the utterly obvious plot holes, illogical character development, and ridiculous storyline are just too much. Add to it, I kept thinking LJS and Kang Sora will get together because they had real chemistry not the leads but no. In the background, mystery regarding Dr. Han Seung Hee's and Officer Cha's mission is brought into light.
