Honestly I'm still overwhelm with Dr.  Hong jealousy rage when he saw sc in the hospital together hj and they were talking with a closeness even obvious to onlookers

the way he threw the soft toy after putting it on his table and went ahead kicking at those lower shelves...

He is really right on the dot that in this drama Dr.  Hong is very much in love with HJ

 

Maybe PDnim saw our message -- complaining why JH didn't jealous about HJ/Sc ---

Gamdongnim - kumawo!

It ended so fast...
I felt bad for YD though, when he looked at JH&HJ. 
BUT nothing can beat my love for the JH&HJ couple!! 

Thinking about ep 9, I just realised I've to wait for another 6 days... It's okay I can live with the cute scenes between them ( for just 6 days )  

No worries for YD chinguya..we know that JH feel can't be compared with YD feel..JH meet HJ first, they have stories together (happy, sad, and all), JH had been waiting 13 years for HJ, he is cheesy but he patiently waited HJ to open her heart and accept the presence of a man love, and the most important is HJ love JH unconsciously (in my point if view), i just love their love story..maybe for the end of story SW realize her mistake and become more understand about people feeling around her and YD can be together with her, happy ending

[HanCinema's Drama Review] "Doctors" Episode 8

2016/07/12

 

Having apparently realized that too much energy has been extended on social relationships lately, the production team dedicates much of this episode to actual doctoring. First there's the accidental crisis Hye-jeong and Soo-cheol created by failing to observe proper traffic safety precautions, then there's the more built-up storyline regarding the prospective Olympic archer. Both operations go relatively smoothly with no real hitches.

"Doctors" is passable entertainment if that's all you're really looking for- just a bunch of actors putting on white coats and playing at being medical professionals. But the drama's lack of ambition to do much more than that is unavoidably off-putting. While the whole notion of wide awake hand surgery is interesting, it's the kind of general interest topic that's more well-suited to a magazine article or a public news report than it is to narrative storytelling.

The only character that has anything approaching a genuinely interesting arc is, once again, Seo-woo. Unlike Hye-jeong, Seo-woo is capable of failure and making mistakes, and watching Seo-woo struggle with these decisions is fairly dramatic. It also feels more than a little unfair. I'm not a doctor, but given the information we were presented with, Seo-woo's medical opinion seemed perfectly reasonable, and in medicine like in any other field, dissenting opinions are important even when they're wrong.

It frequently feels like Seo-woo is given the cold shoulder by other characters less due to personal failing and more due to how she has the temerity to contradict Hye-jeong. The implications of this are especially unfortunate because Ji-hong and Yoon-do are both gunning for a relationship with Hye-jeong. Not only is this technically sexual harassment, but it's also an effective legal argument for clouded judgment. If we ever get to a situation where Seo-woo is right and Hye-jeong is wrong, this favoritism could be used as a cudgel to attack them the same way they hit Seo-woo.

Granted, Seo-woo has her own surreptitious romantic motive. But I'm inclined to view her actions more favorably because at least Seo-woo's romantic aspirations dovetail with trying to create a better working relationship between hospital administration and hospital staff. It just strikes me as massively unfair that after her role in Soo-cheol's accident, at the end of this episode Hye-jeong gets yet another carefree romantic adventure with Ji-hong while Seo-woo is left crying into her phone when a badly timed text appears to have been perfectly designed to mock and humiliate her.

@angelangie i feel the same way about Hancinema's reviewer ro the point that I scratch my head and think is he watching the same drama. Even in his latest review justifying how SW acted (he has been biased to SW so far...ummm I think he missed the memo that this drama is not about SW). 

PS: and of course the masochist in me would still read thru the review posted here. Note to self, scroll through Hancinema review in the future LoL

No i dont think we'll see the last of him. His still recuperating from the attack. Im sure we might see him again tonight. But with Jisoo plot as well as YD possible confession and HJ family issues it might be pushed to next wk. Good thing there is many issues to work on right? 

 

Absolutely! I like the actor who plays the gangster and he is supposed to be HJ's patient and we didn't even get to see him when she was going around seeing her patients.

So cute

Todays episode we see HJH and HJ shoes in the grass field where they ran, yesterday was the motorcicle SC uses, the kiss episode we see the phonebooth the one before that I believe we see the surgery room. I don't remember the rest but I love this little details they give us

Enjoy your vacation! We will miss you

 

[yeohaengja]

I love last night episode. I can't handle Hong Hong Hong cutenesssss. 
Well, what will happen to this couple? because next week is the 9th episode, and usually there will be big problem rises. 

Will JH drag into SW's father evil plan? Because SW's father ever said to SW that she have to stick with JH...

and will it be malpractice during the surgery and HJ is the blamed one? (but actually she's doing nothing)

LOL, i'm guessing bad plot right now

One more BTS -  Ok I better not spam anymore

Yes, please.. I think I said it for my third times now.. If Hancinema will only ruining our mood, why keep posting it here? I wonder too..  A lot of chingus here have more capability than Hancinema to discuss about uri Doctors inside out.. Plus we are all love our Doctors..

Schwartz contextualizes his criticism using Western aesthetics (c.f. Grey's Anatomy's narrative) and perceives the drama as if it is designed for Western audiences. This is why a reverse harem is disappointing in his universe, as it would only happen in a setup akin to The Bachelorette instead of a chick lit/josei-inspired medical drama. Doctors, whose working title was Female Gangster Hyejung, does not aspire to be a House MD but a healing drama, a narrative that showcases how a specific life saver's life is eventually saved.

Gangster Boss ohhhhh his handsome we've got handsome doctors and handsome patients.  Where is that hospital I need to admit myself in there? Jokes aside the actor is busy with his own drama (just released on 11th Jul) so I guess we must be more patient  oh wait we already are. 

EDIT- No bedroom pics but hospital scenes  OPPS @siena407 posted them already  I just delete it

Thank you thank you everyone for all the info/work/recaps/bts/clips etc. Ep 8 was great!

I caught the subbed ep 8 right now.

@bebebisous33 Thanks for your thoughts and happy vacation. I kind of sensed the importance of the scenes at beginning setting the tone and big idea of it being HJ's story and the importance in that episode of the scene. So loved your explanation. Thank you very insightful.

Just a bunch of my ramblings and thanks for your patience. :-)

WOW! I like the progression of the relationship and HJ leaning towards JH. A lot of people already echoed my thoughts on a many levels.

Can I say, YD uncle was cute and did try to flirt still. When HJ waited for him after SC surgery he just brushed her off saying I will tell you when we eat together. I loved how she was persistent and he was like-you don't believe in me? His cute "it was a success" so aegyo and cutie like. LOL. Yes JH doesn't think his pal is any threat to him and HJ. He loves to flirt but as someone pointed out he could not tell him to stop and say she is mine as HJ wasn't his officially yet.

We got to see YD trying his AEGYO with the "claws" motion another person does a cute version but his is a tiger is the current SuHo in Lucky Romance. He was adorbs liking how she was smiling and looking at him. When he said he ate well HJ dad's food and saw her not smile. He was gauging her reactions. Cute cute. I am impressed by him being cheesy and saying girls like it and that he admitted liking her and wanting to eat at the cafeteria with her before the surgery. It is a date and rushing off not allowing her to refuse him. LOL. Yeah. I hope he continues to like her and not be "evil" second lead. Somehow I don't see that. He doesn't want power or status and avoids it. I hope he continues to like her and protect her from SW. The fact when he left SW after the dinner date with her and her grandpa and dad---he said he would risk the jinx of HJ that SW warned him about her.

I liked as I mentioned before YD did not think blindly and lets decision about others can be changed. Such as he even bet his car that SW was not bullied by HJ but felt confident it was the other way around. Especially since he knew that HJ did not out his being unable to rescue or save her from the knife wielding madman who wanted to kill the gangster. So he knew she was not one who just gossiped around along with hard working and giving as good as she got. Like he thought her not sincere returning his Vm with a text though not out of turn he just wanted to see HJ and had to find an excuse.  Or being surprised when HJ yet again saved him from the running guy--saying uh shouldn't the guy save you? He always is in these weird situations with HJ. LOL. YD is getting slowly closer to HJ as he is similar to HJ grandmother. He may be weird but simple and direct. He has a temper and is proper and goes by the rules. But I like that YD also keeps his eyes open and though may hear stuff from others AHEM SW he still later will let the truth of others actions win him over ie HJ. From HJ thanking him for his help (though he was mortified) to showing him some fighting moves nor trying to impress him. She was quick to say I was the troubled child for HJH not his fave. Plus I was expelled too. So YD realizes that when SW fake acts nice saying she was respecting HJ privacy not disclosing to him earlier --he was like she told me directly. YD mentioned I might have known you 10 years I am finally seeing sides of you never seen before (but they are not attracting YD unfortunately but doing the opposite) UGGGH coming from SW it is gossip about HJ's background and seriously WHAT trauma from HJ? The fact HJH liked HJ and not her? Or fact that SH finally woke up and decided to let go of bossy and not looking at SH equally as a pal but a gopher? Oh woe is me -poor me is not making me sympathetic to her. She may be rich, pretty and smart. Her family especially coddled her made her arrogant and entitled. Even YD knew her for 10 years but never felt a SPARK for her. Telling she is never going to get out of that zone with him. HJ has something about her. SW is pretty and all that but she is in her bubble. Even when others say her current bestie YK, she is not kind or good to him. I don't think he LOVES SW but he likes her friendship allows him to slide with others until HJ told him straight be prepared whenever you report to me. Sounds so like what YD would say. Nepotism doesn't work for HJ as she is clawing her way with hard work and nothing. As SW dad likes HJ type those from not top rated schools as they are not complacent and hungry.

Puppy is cute. Sad he overdrank and had to be helped at the end of the welcome party scene. He sang alot,, drank alot and loved how he called HJ our pretty doctor when he handed her -her drink. Or when HJ dad passed his business card he looked at HJ's expression and did not linger after thanking him for the delicious food. He recalled the comment from the talk when over HJ's dad food. He learned that her biological dad and maybe his blog posting on the good food might not earn him more brownie points with HJ. (We know HJ did not crack a smile when YD admitted eating well the food from HJ's dad.)

There is no perfect family. I think it is good that HJ dad wants to get back to together. But he did not work hard enough. Even if he did or was clueless to his second wife's treatment of HJ (if she hid it well from him) she is not nice. He would have a tough time caring as usually the wife has more time with the child than the father. But he is WRONG to expect auto acceptance and a warm welcome back from HJ. She has a RIGHT to be upset. Seriously he said she just left? well hello you did dump her at grandmothers and admitted cutting ties with her at that time I think he did her a favor not realizing the reason she acted out was cry for help and attention. No parents are perfect but with stress and wanting things to go smoothly he was at his wits ends. But despite it all I hope he continues to try to make amends to HJ. She deserves to have a family. I do like the step sister. She seems kinds and is aware about her mom and maybe just maybe aware how vile her own mom's tongue is too. She did notice how her dad misses HJ and kindly asked for the phone number so he could call her. Very thoughtful daughter.

HJH---I love KRW the actor. He is killing it as HJH. I loved him first seeing him in Rooftop Cat. Here he mixes the childishness, sexy, manly, man child, teasing and just lovely sides of himself. From his kicking stuff and throwing the stuffed animal showing his childish jealousy. He knew it but it was still the early stages and he asked HJ to let him go to him. He knew she let him kiss her was a big step. Plus the hug was good. He still was on pins and needles still with her. Not sure 100% her feeling back to him. So when HJ was distraught over SC he is jealous as he is in precarious situation. But as pointed out by others, the look of man to man eyeing each other after the surgery. He wanted to hold HJ waist when he thought he was getting a thank you hug but only had teasing HJ adjusting his collar that did not need adjusting. (But it shows us HJ is totally reciprocating and warming up to him) So cute how he says his heart is feeling fluttery. AWWWW.

JH had to check SC out. But when SC asked if he was married? He is like no. And you? Yes. So the joy on JH face was lovely and he felt like a ton of bricks lifted. So SC is NOT my competition. PHEW! He thought they were flirting (when SC was in the hospital when the initially caught up) so now he knows. Funny how SC did not correct him saying he is divorced. Still even if he said that, that would not make or dull his happiness and if he added he had a kid that would not help his suit with HJ. As we  know, HJ thinks of him as a cool man and sibling but never as someone she wanted to date. So makes sense he was jealous. I loved how he was easily able to catch the stuffed animals, playing with GLEE the games at the arcade even if he was horrible and lost to HJ he did not care. He has his pride to win but to his lady love he is just fully of joy and just being her, seeing her joy and laugh was enough. Yes love has its childish sides. Loved it!  Even when he tried to do the same drinking trick as HJ and failing miserably TWICE to the point of a headache and reddish forehead he still laughed it off.Almost outing that HJ is not a girl but guy but HJ had to stop him. (He loves all sides of HJ) How can you not love this goofy man child?!  But the finale of this episode was excellent how he marveled this girl is the first to hold my hand first.  Then he KNEW she liked him back for sure.

Thanks for letting me spaz. Good night from my end it is midnight here. I so cannot wait to see next week.

Totally agree with you and ....

STOP whoever that is that kept on putting Hancinema review on this forum, if we need a review we look it up ourselves and a lot of people here have their own site to go to for reviews. And here I'll say it F Schawrtz, if I want to care about his review then I'll go seek him out, don't bring him here where some people just get upset with his review.

Sorry chingus for my outburst, i come to this forum to be happy like Dr. HongHongHong not to be subjected to some people's unwanted review.

And I freaking love reverse harem, girl power, the more the merrier.....

Gahhh what an interesting 2 episodes this week. Ep 8 was out the roof in terms of holding viewers' emotions. I was so nervous during the two surgeries.

But I have to wonder...how strong can HJ be?? In the morning, she witnessed her beloved friend almost die in front of her, then went into his surgery, only to assist in another major surgery in the afternoon. This work day must have been at least somewhat taxing emotionally and physically?? Especially with SC's accident!! But I find it surprising that she can then be totally fine going to the party at night... I half expected her to be feeling a bit down, and perhaps wanting to stay by SC for a little while?

However what I'm NOT skeptical about is how HJ really enjoyed herself on her late night date with JH-- after the stressful day and the experience of almost losing a loved one, I could see how she would feel that she shouldn't hold back her emotions anymore since time is precious and you never know what could happen to your loved ones in the next minute...
