Heróis de Plantão

This drama is based on a Korean webtoon, but it is meaningful in that it reflects the reality of Korea by using a famous real trauma specialist as a model. However, the drama is not heavy, and it has the charm of watching all the episodes until the end with the excellent acting of the various actors centered around the main characters, the fast development, and the appropriate wit and humor. Joo Ji-hoon, who plays the main character doctor, was a great casting for this drama, and it became a well-made medical drama despite the relatively small budget compared to other dramas. Now I look forward to the next season.

Wow.

This was one entertaining show. A medical drama, with intense action and disarmingly funny scenes that keep you engaged and very entertained. Acting is superb, with the lead characters emerging throughout the series run. It's about the establishment of a trauma center, with the expected bureaucratic backlash.

The charismatic lead is one of those idealistic hero's that full motivation is not revealed until the last episode. His young protégés are note perfect and add both an emotional depth and comedic charm. It's intense, but releases the tension with, honestly, laugh out loud comedic moments that always satisfy.

Production values are great, with cinematic flourishes that signal great talent that brought this to the TV screen. It may be a one off, but I'd watch season 2 in a heartbeat!

Without reading the synopsis, I thought this series would just be the typical romantic comedy medical k-drama, but I was so pleasantly surprised within 15 minutes of the first episode.

As someone who has watched k-dramas for 15 years, this series was the perfect balance of comedy and action - it was so refreshing to see a confident and skilled (lead) main character who showed no signs of hesitation at crucial moments. It was also really nice to see how developed the supporting characters were. Not to say that there aren't scenes that logically/realistically can't happen irl but it doesn't necessarily take away from the overall plot in my opinion.

I easily finished watching this in two days because I couldn't stop myself from wanting to find out what happened next. I'm really hoping for a season 2!!

After watching this, I think it would be interesting to see how this is similar/different to the webtoon that it is actually based on.

I absolutely adored this movie, or shall I say series, for its brilliantly crafted plot. It's rare that I find myself so engrossed that I binge-watch an entire drama in just one day, but this one hooked me from the start. The scenes oscillated between hilariously funny moments that had me laughing out loud and gripping, intense drama that kept me on the edge of my seat.

While the characters themselves were often unlikeable, which was a testament to the exceptional acting, this only added to the allure of the series. It was fascinating to watch such well-rounded performances where the actors brought depth to characters that were easy to despise yet impossible to ignore. The writing was sharp, the direction was spot-on, and the production values were top-notch, making every aspect of this series truly lovable.

Kudos must go to the entire team behind this project - from the scriptwriters to the directors, the cinematographers to the costume designers, and especially the actors who breathed life into this compelling world. Every element worked in harmony to create an unforgettable viewing experience. I give it a solid 10/10 for not just entertaining but for leaving a lasting impression with its storytelling prowess.

The show is episodic but the characters grow linearly. With just 8 episodes however not much depth to it yet. It seems to be based on a webtoon but I've not read it so idk how accurate. It's actually fascinating to know that the lead is inspired by a real doctor named Lee Guk-jong. I'm giving additional kudos that they had onsite Doctor consultants so they can recreate the surgery scenes as grounded as possible.

I really love medical shows like Chicago med and House but this wasn't what I expected lol it's so chaotic. I love it. Especially on the character side...The characters are so dramatic. There's some dreaming sequences which I find funny. The acting is quite animated so that might turn some people off.. they're very loud. A lot of shouting and unprofessionalism. Definitely need a good amount of suspension of disbelief.

The lead is really good. He's the hand of god 100% good mc lol he can do basically almost everything. He's straightforward rude with the doctors but he cares about saving the lives of his patients. Honestly it feels more action show than drama. My favorite is during surgery scenes the bodies look so real. It can get quite bloody. Some episodes were quite touching while others I'm just laughing by how romanticized it was. There's a hero filter on this show which makes the villains very one note. I can't wait for season 2.
