LOL, yes, Kang So-ra is playing her very well, i admit. - 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? Lee Ki-chan Meet You Now () from the OST. In episode 17, I had finally deciphered Jae Hees ultimate intention. All along Ive been doubting her motives for coming to South Korea. Her role as a North Korean spy (who is in cahoots with the Prime Minister to put the President in coma) has a very clear mission to fulfill, and rekindling her romantic interest to Park Hoon is just part of the show to finish it. Poor Hoon. Copyright 2022 VTM StudiosVTM or Vlaamse Televisie Maatschappij is the main commercial television station in Flanders and forms part of a network of channe. Reply to May too since the reply button is missing from her post. Its fate, Hoon thinks to himself. If shes Jae-hee, why did she hide her true identity from Hoon? That is not to say that there is already definite proof to confirm that Jae Hee is Seung Hee after all, not quite yet, nor do I believe that Park Hoon will be getting any concrete evidence this early on either. He took Park Hoon along because Hoons mother refused to care for him. But Hoon isnt interested in getting his job back and only wants to see Seung-hee, who started working at the main hospital as of today. And Jae-Hee is still making no sense - aside from the fact that brainwashing is largely a myth, why is she pretending to be someone else? He deeply fell in love with Jae Hee (Jin Se-yeon) in his high school. And, it's really interesting to see pro Sora camp using the interaction excuse. I need more to feel more, but I doubt we'll get that since the show has obviously moved on from establishing that. While Soo-hyun tries and fails to stop Hoon, Seung-hee tells Agent Cha that he made the right choice in letting her show herself. When the realization hits, his eyes open wide. Hahahaha! In this episode, Jae Hee also told Soo Hyun that Hoon is the reason why her father died. That Hoon killed her father to save her and shes not sure anymore if she can still continue loving him despite all the things that happened between them. Still I have a weakness for Hoon & Jae Hee story, I want them to be together so bad after everything they've gone through. S1.E1 Episode #1.1 In a last minute effort to stop a war between North and South Korea, Doctor Park Cheol and his son Park Hoon are sent to the north to perform heart surgery on the North Korean leader. And there Soo-hyun is, staring at the two of them like the crazy men they are. Park Hoon and Hae Joon prepare for the surgery of the newborn twins and deal with the obstacles of procuring a team to go ahead with the surgery. Also, I have seen the main actress in this and Born Again and I have since refused to watch any of her shows. 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. The actors and actresses performances are really commendable except the one lead (JSY) whos acting is just too stiff. There he meets Han Seung-hee, a doctor who uncannily resembles Jae-hee. But Seung-hees patience reaches its breaking point when Hoon tries to keep her with him at the expense of one of her patients, causing her to slap him back to realitynothing should be as important to a doctor as their patient, she barks, which is something he should understand if he claims to be a doctor. Then, I decided to try Doctor Stranger and went in with low expectations because I hadnt heard much praise for this one. A Good Supper (MBC, 2021); Blessing of the Sea (MBC, 2019); Voice 2 (OCN, 2018) cameo; You Are Too Much (MBC, 2017) (: Doctor Stranger Episode 17 The Shattering of Jae Hees Pretense. Full House. Sorry, watching 'The Man From Nowhere' last night to see what this whole "Won Bin" thing was about. Jae Hees confession to Soo Hyun that she will be leaving soon confirmed my suspicion that theres a higher probability that the ending of this series wont veer away from the original ending in the book (Doctor Stranger is based in a best-seller book Northern Doctor). To build upon to what I said in the previous thread, the problems are twofold: 1) as you pointed out Seung Hee is not an easy character to play (especially as a Protagonist), it's so easy to fall into a mediocre one-dimensional monotony with it, because clearly there are less lines and less freedom for the actor to flesh out this character with, unlike say, Hoon or Soo Hyun, who are very dynamic and demands an array of emotions. However, just as much as people want to see the 'first love' trope be subverted, I myself want to see the "why can't guys and girls be just friends" and "no romance policy" be upheld more.

There were multiple (four, if I remember right) such competitions held over several episodes. Lifetime Movie Present: The Secret Lives of College Freshmen (Tagalog Dub) Uncut TV5 Dubbing. Doctor Stranger. I dont know. Had Soo Hyun & Jae Joon met up at the end and visited a memorial or raised a glass to the two of them it would've made for a much more powerful ending IMO. The head surgeon (currently the chairman) did not apologize at all. Since most of the show was medical-related, I knew nothing. Somehow. I love how he calls Sohyun that and her just letting him do it. 4 . ^^ After that, Ill live as Song Jae-hee. According to your conviction, the production team would have to convince you of that first. Jae-Hee Is Dragged Away By The Guards ("Doctor Stranger"/Episode Its cute how Soo-hyun tries to cheer him up by asking him about his life, only Hoons memories of his parents are unhappy oneslike his father getting shot, and his mother never caring. [4][5][6] According to the website DailyNK, which reports on North Korea-related issues, the drama was highly popular among North Korean youth who would obtain it illegally at the jangmadang (markets). Ha. But they were tricked and the father-son duo wasnt allowed to return to South Korea. I want more of these scenes. If you continue to use this site we will assume that you are happy with it. There was just a time-jump resulting in him being South Korea with no elaboration whatsoever. I doesn't sound like a case of "I think the Prime Minister wants to protect him since he owes Hoon a debt". YFAS. I have mixed feelings about it because of those random pointless things. -_-, I watched the 2 episodes confused and trying to find clues about the ruined"mission" Sunghee and Agent Cha were talking about, it's ruined and I haven't even figured it out. Drunk hoon calls for jae hee because he's a bery love sick boi Doctor Stranger EP 2 Eng Sub - The South Korea Embassy in North Korea rejects Hoon and Jae Hee's application for asylum despite the fact that they are being hunted by the North Korean officials. I liked the is she Jae-Hee or is she Seung-Hee? debate I had throughout the show. After an article appeared in Korean ladies magazine . I didnt like that they made a competition out of important surgeries. If she's Jae Hee, why would she needs to copy her own gestures? Hes been trained well by his father and is a great heart surgeon. Min width: 500px. Although, I have no idea what's north korea group plan for Hoon Gotta agree with everyone that KSR and LJS acting is tremendously top notch in every episode. Song Jae-Hee, in the small amount of time we saw her, was shown as a vibrant girl and I liked her instantaneously. Say if a couple is married right from the beginning of the drama, are they supposed to convince you that the couple is indeed in love before moving on to other parts of the story? Why go through all this shadow puppetry with a political storyline that has absolutely zero likable characters in it? Jae-hee is Park Hoon's soul mate who was separated from him while they were escaping from North Korea; Seung-hee is a North Korean woman and is a specialist in oriental medicine anesthesia. I mean, who wouldn't? }); Im doing thispoint-wiseso that you know exactly what I liked and how much I liked it. And the former Secretary Kim continues to be adorable and funny and thankfully not-evil. I liked him well enough but I HATED the other main character. Please click the link in that email to complete the email change process. Its not realistic, especially since it happened ALL THE TIME. He became a genius cardiothoracic surgeon after attending medical school in North Korea. He got his first break as a lead actor in Kim Ki Duk's movie 3-Iron which won awards both locally and internationally and as an effect opened more opportunities for Jae Hee in the entertainment industry. I really want to like this because I started watching for LJS, and the chemistry b/n him and KSR is pretty intriguing. She adamantly refuses that shes Jae-Hee but Hoon doesn't accept that, believing that she is Jae-hee. Probably the most entertaining one of the bunch airing right now but I can't say I love it. Soo-Hyun and Chang-Yi ran over and saw them fall. Chang-yi all but pouts when she hears this, wishing more than anything that Hoon would just forget about Jae-hee. TV-14. Doctor Stranger S1: E1 Park Cheol Saves the Leader of En.. 2014 HD TagDub. He comes across . There is a huge range of audience maturity which could also be influenced by age, culture and exposure just to list some factors. My experience watching Doctor Stranger can best be described by a quote from The Birdcage(1996), "How do you think I feel? Of course, Soo-hyun called her over so that he could apologize to her, only now hes too drunk to do much of anything. Soo-hyun tells her father that shes staying at Moms house tonightwhich isnt untrue, since Seung-hees house is Moms house. As of July 7, 2014 it has been streamed close to 400 million times. I agree. While Seung-hee sneaks something Kevorkian into Chang-yis moms IV, Agent Cha reports to Nightshade that Seung-hee was successful in the surgery. What we get now is that PH is deeply in love with JH, and while that's not enough for me to want to care about their relationship, I'll just have to believe in it because that's what the show is centered about anyway. i mean when they say in this drama everyone has a different heartbeat and when they test it and get it wrong in the end how dull would that be???? window.fbAsyncInit = function() { Its a rarity and definitely a fortunate turn of role casting for KSR. They knew each other since young. Doctor Stranger Episode 17 - The Shattering of Jae Hee's Pretense I want to watch the tension between PH and JJ, not over Soohyun, but over what being a doctor means to both of them. The show is forcing us to believe in the Hoon-Jaehee relationship but not showing us enough about WHY we should believe in it. Park Hae-jin as Han Jae-joon / Lee Sung-hoon Kim Ji-hoon as young Lee Sung-hoon I was SO wrong. I want to watch him get over that (with the help of soohyun or something) and start realizing what it means to be a doctor. Instead, it makes my head spins trying to wring out the suspense in every character (except Hoon, SooHyun and Dr Moon and that's why I enjoy them so much) The writer keeps trying to introduce character with huge mysterious plot line then plays the game that feeds me a tiny bit informati22on once a while. 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. Maybe in the second half? While this show isnt as compelling as other shows starring Lee Jong-Suk (that Ive seen), it is still good enough in terms of characters. When he is finally able to return to South Korea, he begins working at a hospital. Why? But them becoming a couple is just too convenient for me. He calls her to ask where she is like he doesnt know, and she lies that shes at her mothers house and needs some time to think. The potential of this series was so good but the execution was so poor, I couldnt bear to be even more disappointed so I just stopped. Even though hes flooded with memories of Jae-hee, he finally treats Seung-hee like a separate person in order to apologize for his drunkenness the night before. That would be the most welcome surprise. After Prime Minister Jang has a good laugh at the presidents penchant for punctuality (this guy needs to get out more), he asks Nightshade about Seung-heehe wants to see her skills firsthand. But Nightshade wants to see her other skills. I find her bland and boring either way. *nostalgic to 'Reply 1994' era*. The way you described it eyes wide open, empty expression is exactly what I would describe a person that is about to die would probably have. in fact, i didn't enjoy it because somehow it felt more unnatural.

I must confess that I did not study science much while I was young. is each heart beat of human being very characteristic that we cannot find an identical heart beat or similar heart beat of someone else as Hoon says? (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/. It was a bittersweet moment for sure but they left the bridge united once more - when Hoon mentioned his regret at having let go in Hungary it just seemed right that that marked an ending of sorts. No matter how this ends up, we all know I'll be watching the entire series because urgh, LJS and his awesomeness - I can't resist that. . I don't want him to be one-dimensional. - The whole "I don't want to admit I helped to find Chang Yi's mom until I find Seung Hee" explanation sounds dodgy. all these cliff hangers are taking its toll on me. Seduce her Hoon and open her skirt =). 3. http://gizmodo.com/5884650/your-heartbeat-could-be-your-password, This sentence in that article though is the killer "..You will never get the same exact timing of beats twice", I kept getting SLS -_- Although Jae Joon intended to use Soo Hyun at first, the guy seriously fell in love with her. How did the writers or anyone else in the making of the show not notice?? So Doctor Moon tries pulling some strings to get her medical records, but when he finds out just how illegal it is, he backs off. SeungHee was briefed about JH relationship with PH so she awares of that in orde to make her mission succeed, but since her mind is control, she can't remember anything about the past, so she just has the SeungHee's mind in JaeHee's body. also. In the book, Park Hoon will end up with Soo Hyun. I just wish . Hoon is definitely no angel, as he himself have done countless immoral practices of medicine, which arguably fast-tracked his growth and in part made him the genius doctor that he is now. They were standing right there. ", http://www.dramabeans.com/2014/04/doctor-stranger-gets-a-perm/. yes, that trope has been overused but i REFUSE to believe that Seung-hee is someone else who looks exactly like her (or fixed her face to look like JH) or is committed to being a NK spy knowing everything that had happened to Hoon. She can't be just the love interest, there has to be more going on with her or the whole plot doesn't work. Rate. And how? He is most likely the one who bring both Hoon & Jae Hee to Korea. 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. 170 Views. 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. Back to Soo Hyun, the pro camp kept repeating that the couple is very cute together. She tries to get him to listen to reason, since Seung-hee said she wasnt Jae-hee, but he wont, cant, accept it. I need some context to know who or what I should care about. One of the main plotlines revolves around requiring Hoon to do the heart surgery of the vice president, which was weird for a long time. Seung-hee balls her fist as Hoon listens to the steady sound of their hearts beating in perfect unison. He mention about paying back his gratitude to Hoon,as he is the only one who knew PM secrets & he knew that Hoon dad was innocent. 4 Hoon . And I know yours, Jae-Hee. Hoon slams his fist down and storms out, refusing to hear more. we dont know what exacatly and why. Especially since Seung-hee overhears the entire exchange. Thanks for the insight madhatter. the reason why a lot of people feel more for soohyun/hoon is because we see them interacting; we see their characters changing because of each other. Im betting Seung-hee is Jae-hee, since we know the stopped heart as death fakeout was already done so it's possible for a repeat. Although they did get back together Miss Korea was pretty realistic about how the main couple weren't and couldn't be the same people they'd been in high school. Well damn, koala just made a clarion call over at koalasplayground (more than once actually) to leave all the worthwhile discussions within the drama recap thread rather than inundating it with actress bashing. 2. Genre: drama, medical, romance, thriller. I mean, come on. Chairman Oh reminisces about Soo-hyuns mother fondly, claiming that, despite everything, his feelings for her mother were genuine. But what they lack for emotions, they make it up with Intensity. As the world grew smaller and every man over the age of forty was revealed to be part of some nefarious plan involving Hoon, I was at least glad for the inclusion of Director Choi.
