Beautiful Mind

I just finished the drama for the second time in a few years interval and I have to say I'm still in love. I'm older now and can understand more of the concepts that I ignored for handsome male leads and the love story when I was fifteen. This was an impactful drama which is what movies should be about, they should teach you and engage all your emotions be it joy,sorrow,mirth or incredulity and this did just that. I empathized with Lee Yeongo, cheered when he started learning to feel even if it was just a little, felt sad and understood Dr Hyeon moral delimma.

I'm sad it ended with fourteen episode but I will definitely watch it again and I hope someone else gives it a chance and falls in love like I did.

It's a good role for award winning actor Jang Hyuk, who always excels at bringing an unusual character to life. The rest of the story could be backdrop for his scenes. That includes the medical stories. I only remember two of the patients' stories that had enough air time to be of any interest. All but a few characters seemed like props, not people. Some of them seemed bizarre because they acted so inconsistently. Incongruous events that came out of the blue and that should have made me cry made me laugh out loud instead. Then, the writer herself turned a dangerous surgery into a comedy! What a confused mess! I wondered whether the series was written for Jang Hyuk. He seems to have all the good lines to say. Or did he make gold out of dross? I kept watching for Jang Hyuk and for his character's story. As muddled as that story was, he made it work. 6 stars.

It is obvious a clinical kdrama which some parts of police/mystery cases.

Mediocre for my taste as I didn't like the chemistry between the main leads actors. I think the main actress was too young and seemed like a child for the main man. I didn't also understand when she started have feelings for him.

Need to mention that even if she was a police officer , she didn't manage to play any significant role for the whole storyline.

Moreover I didn't like the plot twist with his father's past . I would prefer the main actor had medically, the lack of emotion's problem.

There were some good moments. To my mind the best scene is when he is under police interrogation.

" beautiful mind "" The best kdrama i ever watched...

One thing i hate about Kdramas (or many be it's Korean culture?) is when the male actor runs and grabs the arm of the female unnecessarily. It's ridiculous when the other person is 3 meters away and a couple of loud calls would suffice to draw her attention.

Another thing to hate- unrealistic show-off by the protagonist who is supposed to be a professional like a doctor. One would think such people would be mature-sober kind.

I found both these in the 1st episode itself. Add- cartoonish villain who tells his evil plan in open, a police officer who can't detect 'it's murder' even after seeing the car hit a person after changing into reverse gear. All these within 1st 20 minutes. For a show touted as realistic medical drama, it's big letdown.

The female lead is excellent and may as well salvage this.
