Lien Binh Phat plays his role Dr. Pham Van Ninh in The Outlaw Doctor excellently, especially in his heartful moments like visiting his mother in the hospital. Moreover, the connection between him and Dr. Ping (Ning Chang) is becoming closer.
I would like to send my best congratulations to the casts of this TV-series. You all are deserved this. Of course I and many fans of Lien Binh Phat are enjoying this series to our hearts's content. In the nearest future, surely we will support Season 2 of The Outlaw Doctor.
Keep going, keep reaching... we are staying here for you, our Dr. Pham. Love you so much.

Have been following Phat Lien Binh more than 5 years. I'm so proud that now he can work with international actors. I always trust his choice, and The Outlaw Doctor is a amazing series that I can't wait for the next episode. Congratulations to the cast and team production for creating such a thrilled but also empathised drama series. Taiwanese drama always has such an incredible script. They can deliver stories about social issues but still can know how to touch their audience's hearts. As a Vietnamese audience, I'm so happy that Taiwan and Vietnam collaborate to create this drama series. Love, form Vietnam.
This movie is so great!! The character development of Dr. Pham is super amazing! The psychological development, the way he think and express... 10 out of 10. And also the interaction between him and the boy is so lovely. They are so cute.
On the other side, I can't believe they can express all the complexity of the society and different communities as that much. Especially the context and past, the conflicts in psychology, the process of personality formation, and other issues faced by legal and illegal migrant workers as well as local residents. The film presents many aspects that make viewers reflect.
Worth-watch movie in 2025!
Btw, Lien Binh Phat is so handsome!!!

The Outlaw Doctor is an absolute must-watch that'll leave you speechless! The acting is pure class-Lien Binh Phat proves he's Vietnam's rightful Film Emperor with a performance that's raw, powerful, and unforgettable. His chemistry with Janine Chang is off-the-charts, electric in every scene, making you root for them instantly. The supporting cast shines just as bright, bringing depth to every moment. From the stunning cinematography to the flawless color tones and masterful camera angles, this film is a visual feast with no flaws to nitpick. Trust me, you'll want to drop everything and watch it right now-perfection doesn't even begin to describe it!

With an attractive plot, the screenwriter has built a social context, the difficult life of illegal immigrants in Taiwan. The famous cast, top-notch acting contributed to the success of the film. The camera angles and film colors are truly artistic, touching the emotions of the viewer.
The main actor in the film really transformed into the character, to fully portray the inner self of an illegal immigrant who always obeys the right thing, lives and works with a conscience. Always ready to help others, lives uprightly and is extremely honest. I like thí film so much and highly recommend to you guys.

This drama is an emotional knockout. Every scene feels raw and authentic, with characters that are so well-written they feel real. Lien Binh Phat absolutely shines in his role his expressions, his body language, everything is spot on. Chang Chun Ning is equally fantastic, bringing depth and warmth to her character. The storytelling is tight, with no unnecessary drama, just real, human emotions that hit hard. The moral dilemmas, the societal challenges, the personal sacrifices, all of it is handled so well that you can't help but be fully invested.
What makes this show stand out is how effortlessly it blends intense moments with heartfelt ones. It makes you think, it makes you feel, and most importantly, it stays with you long after the credits roll. If this isn't a 10/10 drama, I don't know what is.

I've always been a big fan of crime series and movies/films in the medical field. I've watched quite a lot of films from the US and Korean, but this is the first time ever to watch a Taiwanese one.
Overall, I think the story-telling of this film is very good, easy to understand and fascinating to follow. Regardless of the criminal or medical factors, the film does really well. Also, the actors did a relatively good job in delivering the characters' emotion and situation to viewers, especially the main character Pham Van Ninh.
I got the chance to meet Lien Binh Phat in person in his Fancine in Hanoi and listen to him sharing about the experience and stories in the process of shooting the film. He said that he has a wall of scripts in his hotel room. Each piece of paper is 1 scene, and after every shoot, he would remove it as an achievement. He also explained that doing this helps him stayed in character, since the role Pham Van Ninh has really deep and complicated mentality. I think that is an indication of how dedication the actor has for his character, and for me, it is the quality of an actor should have.
After watching the first 4 episodes, I feel very attracted by the story. The filmmakers know how to enhance the sound and visual effects to make viewers focus on the significant situations.
However, there's only 1 thing that makes me a little uncomfortable - the actors' English. As an English learner, I don't like it very much, but as a viewers, I understand that it's the intention of the director.
In short, I think everyone who has an interest in crime/medic series should watch this film. I guarantee the experience is so good you just want to watch more ^^

I find this film to be incredibly captivating, and I am especially impressed by the remarkable performances of the two leading actors. The actor Phát, in particular, truly stands out to me; his talent and charisma bring a unique energy to the character he portrays. The storyline flows wonderfully, with twists and turns that keep me on the edge of my seat. Once I start watching, I find it nearly impossible to take a break or stop. Each scene pulls me in deeper, making for an exhilarating experience that immerses me in the characters' emotions and journey. This film is definitely a must-watch for anyone who loves compelling storytelling.

I rarely watch long series, but this is probably my exception.
The pace of the first two episodes is quite fast, creating a sense of suspense for viewers. Although slower, the following episodes still feature many interesting scenes interwoven, keeping the audience engaged throughout the movie.
The acting of all the actors is very good, making me feel like the characters in the movie are real in real life and I sympathize with their lives. I have to admit that all the actors in the movie are very talented.
There are a few medical scenes in the movie that are a bit scary, you can consider it if you are a person who is afraid of blood.
Overall, this is a great series.

With a fantastic cast and team, "The Outlaw Doctor" is a tribute to the greatness of Taiwanese drama. The cinematography enthralls with its visual appeal, enhancing a narrative that is both intensely emotional and painstakingly constructed. With a graceful and nuanced portrayal of her character, Ning Chang gives an amazing performance. Lien Binh Phat, who is well-known in Vietnam for his attractive appearance, shocks viewers by playing a tired but morally upright illegal doctor who is committed to saving his mother. With a realistic and compassionate plot, the show deftly addresses urgent societal issues. The excellent drama "The Outlaw Doctor" is well worth seeing.

Not finished watching yet but must say it has an interesting and nuanced plot, themes. Medical film is not new, but the topic of Vietnamese immigrants to Taiwan is a social commentary worth diving into. Explicit depiction of medical, operation procedure though, everything seems quite raw and realistic, which helps the somewhat serious tone. The multi-language was somewhat disrupting the viewing experience but it serves the reality of the situation and I got used to it after the first episode.
Lien Binh Phat's acting is really solid and embodies his character with actual depth. His face and voice are born for the screen, especially for these kinds of roles, i must say. I truly hope this series will gain more attention from viewers everywhere.

The drama caught my attention from the first time watching the trailer, it's not just only thrill, but it also very moving. Each episode is worth watching, both the actors are epic, they really know how to catch the audiences' attention every episode. Especially the Lien Binh Phat, he's very good looking and talented actor. Ninh Chang is fascinating too. The plot written well, story flow smoothly, moving and astonishing. Every character have their depth in developing, back story. The action scene are fire, very real, I love it. Hope the drama it self get more recognition from audiences around the world.

If you're looking for a serie to savour and medical / thriller series are happened to be your cup of tea, this one would be right up your alley.
I initially tuned in because of Lien Binh Phat, who became one of my favourite actors since his work Song Lang few years ago. After the pilot, I got sucked in.
The fast pace might make you find it hard to keep up, at first. But I find this interesting, as this does require you to just put down whatever you're having at hand to have your attention fully on the screen and watch as the plot links itself together, the characters unfold and the moment everything clicks will guarantee a "wow" out loud.
Each episode will leave you thinking. Or half-leaping from the edge of your seat with your hand over your chest while a bittersweet aftertaste blooms in your mouth.
The actors work brilliant with each other. Ning Chang and Lien Binh Phat's chemistry faintly reminds me of a more snarkier relationship between Dr. House and Dr. Wilson in House M. D --- should their characters find each other in a different circumstance, it is guaranteed a rather good rivalry-at-work sitcom-ish situation would occur.
You can tell that lots of care were poured into this serie. If you're looking for some worthy serie to watch, consider giving this a chance!

The movie has a very interesting and novel story. When watching the movie, my emotions were intertwined. This film is a vivid picture of social reality, the relationship between people, between people and family. The strings that connect these relationships together made me burst into emotions. The actors were incredibly beautiful. The film is carefully invested in both acting and art. Thank you to the film crew for giving me the opportunity to watch a high quality, international class film with Vietnamese people in the main role. I look forward to seeing the next products with the participation of Lien Binh Phat.

The Outlaw Doctor shows us the story of an immigrant in Taiwan who is working illegally as a doctor to cover his mother's medical expenses. Phil Tang, director of the drama, has said that "Around half the dialogue is in English as the cast includes other non-Taiwanese characters, so it's natural for them to communicate in English. This is something unique for Taiwanese audiences, but we think the international audience will find it interesting as well."
With the good plot and well-acting from Vietnamese actor Lien Binh Phat and Taiwanese actress Janine Chang, this drama is deserved to be known more, not only in Viet Nam and Taiwan, but also around the world. I cannot tell you spoilers from the drama because it's better to watch the drama by yourself.

Complementing Phát's stellar performance is Taiwanese actress Janine Chang, whose chemistry with Phát adds depth and authenticity to the storyline. Their interactions are nuanced and heartfelt, enhancing the overall impact of the series. Every aspect of this production reflects careful attention to detail, from the well-paced editing to the seamless interplay between light and shadow. "Outlaw Doctor" is a testament to the power of great filmmaking, proving that a strong vision combined with exceptional talent can create something truly unforgettable.

I've always had faith in Taiwanese medical dramas, and The Outlaw Doctor did not disappoint. The show realistically depicts the lives of immigrants. The male lead excels at portraying emotions, bringing to life a character like Fan Wen Ning, who is both strong and vulnerable. Highly recommend watching episode 3 to see the captivating and emotional performance of the male lead.
The romantic relationship between the two characters embodies the essence of adulthood. It's not flashy or extravagant, but full of healing and mutual support.
What a great drama! I can't wait to watch the next episode next week!!

A film that recreates reality in a bare and excellent way. The film's flow is fast, not complicated, making you curious about what will happen next. The film is invested meticulously in every detail.
Lien Binh Phat completely portrays every emotion through his eyes. Truong Quan Ninh portrays both the toughness of a doctor and the weakness of a mother. The chemistry of actors in the film is truly extremely compatible and wonderful. The film takes viewers through many emotions, some frustrating, some sympathetic, some humorous. Viewers sometimes wonder what they would do if they were in that situation? And wonder why life is so harsh?
I really hope that the film will be known by more people.

One of the few shows that really struck my fancy. The main character, Dr. Pham was engaging and the series' approach to immigration and xenophobia was poignant. Lien Binh Phat's acting was briliant, as always. I have watched some of his other works, but his subtle acting has never failed to amazed me. Other characters, even the antagonists, are also very interesting. This is a show I can rewatch many times without hesitation. I look forward to future episodes, already on the edge of my seat. Congrats to the cast and crew of The Outlaw Doctor, I hope Taiwan and Vietnam filmmakers will continue to collaborate and create more shows with such high quality.

Very good, I really like this movie. Good content, beautiful actors, there are very thrilling scenes. Entertainment, besides, also conveyed humanistic messages about human love, empathy and compassion. It is not only an entertainment film with suffocating medical details, but also a lively, merciful slice about the lives of expatriates. The tears, the nostalgia of the skin, the burdens of livelihood are shown in an emotional way.
The film creates deep sympathy with the audience. Lien Binh Phat has excellently performed the role of Dr. Pham Van Ninh, a talented, rich man. He combination of Vietnamese cast and Taiwan (China) creates a harmonious overall. Can't take your eyes off !!!
