But Seung-hee, unafraid, convinced Agent Cha to let her meet Hoon. Doctor Moon rejoices, since this means she cant be a spy, while Hoon starts to accept what seems to be the truth: that Seung-hee isnt Jae-hee. There's truly no accounting for taste. appId : '127538621120543', And with that regard, I cannot help but rack my brain of any but one good reason why a North Korean doctor must be involved in anything politically related at all. With Hoon-Jae Hee, we see them going from being perfectly strangers to to sharing deeply hidden secrets/feelings. Oof what foolish plot holes. There were multiple (four, if I remember right) such competitions held over several episodes. If she still had two kidneys, there would have been no need for Hoon to "kill" her father by taking his one remaining kidney to give to his daughter. . The story seemed very incomplete. As not to waste this double-post let me just post this link to the beautiful pics of Kang Sora and Jin Se Yeon: http://koalasplayground.com/2014/05/22/jin-se-yeon-and-kang-sora-are-lovely-in-spring-magazine-spreads-as-shipping-wars-heats-up-dr-stranger/. [ Download ]. Let there be a twist in the plot. In my eyes, she is, Hoon replies. She's just a doctor, not THE doctor stranger. 2:00:03. Hoon is sure that Seung-hee is Jae-hee, and seems lost in his own mind as he compliments her new hairstyle. Image must be about this episode. Soo-hyun stays behind while Doctor Moon takes him, looking disappointed to see him go. With Seung-hee standing right there, Hoon asks Chang-yis mom if she could still recognize Jae-hee if she saw her. Doctor Stranger is currently the only drama outta the current bunch thats got me hooked. I personally think she is Jae Hee, but there is always a chance that she isn't. Firstly, from the first few episodes, the bracelet Hoon gave to Jae Hee in the beginning was in her possession. Over 868 TV Time users rated it a 19.6/10 with their favorite characters being Lee Jong-suk as Park Hoon, Kang So-ra as Oh Soo-Hyun and Jin Se-yun as Song Jae-Hee / Han Seung-Hee. The show is forcing us to believe in the Hoon-Jaehee relationship but not showing us enough about WHY we should believe in it. With supernatural power, no less. Coming with a completely different storyline, Han Jae-Joon held his own on screen against Hoon and Soo-hyun. Agreed. It's not the subs - the show *really* is crazy. In North Korea, Park Hoon was trained to become a doctor by his father who was already a famous doctor. Agent Chas main concern is whether the stubborn Chairman Oh will let Hoon back into the fold, but Seung-hee is unconcernedall they need to do is enlist the help of someone who can change the old mans mind. Thank you for your patience. here, she's playing someone interesting, and I'm looking forward to seeing her (haven't watched yet). Hes been trained well by his father and is a great heart surgeon. For now she's probably the only one who really empathizes with PH, and I love that. (and well, i still think this feels like a one-sided love. The two of them have some sort of arrangement going on, and it involves getting Hoon to remain employed at Myungwoo Hospital. But if the story is going to be centered around PH loving JH, shouldn't they at least try to convince us that he does? I understand people shipping Hoon/Soo Hyun she's easy to like and the actors have some nice chemistry (I don't see it as romantic chemistry myself Hoon's way too wrapped up in JH to even notice other women) but as this was Seung Hee's introduction week I'm not quite ready to abandon the Show's OTP. Jae Hee - DramaWiki - D-Addicts I've seen her do well in vibrant roles before, but being cold and monotonous only serves to compound on her weakness. But yes, whatever, I'm here to stay. Since I did not really notice the songs in this show and dont care to listen to them specifically, I dont have a section for my favourite songs. 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. Afterall, not everyone enjoys or understands the mystery and plot. 2) Han Jae Joon and Oh Soo Hyun. ^^ That was what I thought too! PNG or JPG. Master's Sun script started out kinda promising and then it got so ridiculous towards the end. Doctor Stranger S1: E3 Is Jae Hee Still Alive? 2014 HD TagDub And before I moved here I honestly thought Seoul was the size of maybe ten blocks or so because everybody's lurking behind bushes and watching everything. I did not see any emotion in her. Its a shame because the other 3 leads performances are quite splendid. Soo-hyun slurs that Hoon should just forget about Jae-hee, but Hoon just breaks outa silly smile as he slurs back, Im going to hold onto her until I die.. Doctor Stranger is a 65 minute mini-series-drama-action-romance starring Lee Jong-suk as Park Hoon, Kang So-ra as Oh Soo-Hyun and Park Hae-jin as Han Jae-Joon. Back to Soo Hyun, the pro camp kept repeating that the couple is very cute together. After a successful surgery, Jae-joon updates Hoon and Chang-yi on her mothers status only to be met with skepticism from Hoon, since he didnt think her condition was serious enough to warrant a sudden heart surgery. Sumedha spends her days reading books, bingeing Kdramas, drawing illustrations, and blogging while listening to Lo-Fi music. But that is exactly the problem. Thats how he lost his finger, which explains why hes got a (missing) bone to pick with Hoon. 42 Views. Thats his aim. Unbeknownst to her, Jae-joon is watching from a distance. Lets hope I didnt forget everything about this show because I watched it months back lol. Jae Hee is a South Korean actor who made his on-screen debut in the Korean drama School. That would be the most welcome surprise. I think one big problem with the Hoon-Jae-Hee/ Seung-hee relationship is that we have not really see them interact. This drama was a mess. LOL, yes, Kang So-ra is playing her very well, i admit. Like, in the end, hoon and soo hyun will fall in love with each other and will actually end up together. How much time has she given herself for self reflection? Just a little correction: Jae-hee was given an extra kidney by her father, so she has two. Hoon has some impossible abilities( X ray eyes and hands and super hearing ability like dogs), just like Soo-ha's from IHYV. Please Director-nim scold him Has anyone thought that maybe Jin Se Yeon's problem is burn out(extreme fatigue)? 7.9 (18) 0. But she must have a reason to behave that way, did she turn her back to join force with the evil for revenge, is she trying desperately to protect Hoon in her way, either way I hope the writer will develop her story more in future eps. i only feel sad for the puppy fiancee. xfbml : true, // parse social plugins on this page The man grows up to become a genius surgeon. I suspect that her brain will awake when she interacts with Hoon and then her brain will try to fight the chip that controls her. -_-, 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.

Doctor Stranger depicts a medical-intelligence melodrama about a massive conspiracy surrounding a genius doctor born in South Korea but raised in North Korea by the name of Park Hoon (Lee Jong Suk) and South Koreas top elite doctor Han Jae Joon (Park Hae Jin.) That little detail has never been explained. ", that sometimes I cannot help but wonder if they're just saying it because it's in vogue, or they have other deeper motivations above shipping? My suggestion? To be fair for JSY and her character(s), Jae Hee is more of a plot device than a fully realized character, and Seung Hee gets held back a lot for the sake of being mysterious. all these cliff hangers are taking its toll on me. He hopes that hell be able to ask her mother when she wakes up. Reddit and its partners use cookies and similar technologies to provide you with a better experience. I don't need specific details, but I thought it'd be good if they could have included one or two more scenes of them together. How right. JSY is too young, barely gets out of teenage, to have the experience needed for the complex character. shes so cute with her dimples and cheeks and more endearing. Our doctoring stranger is set adrift in a convoluted power play as the mystery aspect of this show starts taking precedent, which means an hour filled with spies, politicians, and surgeons (oh, my). i know very few dramas where they move on from first loves (Twelve Men in a Year, I Need a Romance)and they weren't executed in the best way. Shippy or not, I hope they remain friends. Since you liked Dr romantic and Dr John have you tried d-day and hospital ship? The close contact unsettles her, and while Hoons eyes are closed she reaches out to brush her fingers against his cheek. how many people are there who are trying to achieve something. 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. Completely agree with you. ), she hold her fist like she can't let her feeling own/rule her, and she did the same thing in this very current episode, ep 6.

I don't really mind if Hoon ends up with either or neither. FB.init({ Now I'm thinking if I can follow this show, which will be him all the way running after her, basically. Right now, I don't want PH to end up with Soohyun, but neither do I want him to end up with Jaehee. - The whole "I don't want to admit I helped to find Chang Yi's mom until I find Seung Hee" explanation sounds dodgy. Never mind that multiple years have gone by and each partner has probably grown and matured in different directions due to different experiences. Are they going to kill him off after that or? // Load the SDK asynchronously I did not feel anything between the two leads either, I honestly thought they'd not end up together while thinking Kang Sora was female lead. Is it just me, or is the plot of this drama basically a giant plot hole? Thank you, windsun33. Ratings: 9.1 /10 from 34 users. Take away the names and the different settings of each drama, I see the same person with the same limited expressions. Seung-hee better have a great reason, in my eyes she has loads of redemption to do. He tells her how much he misses her as he reaches out to hold her hand. Only to see that Seung-hee does have two kidneys. sad to say that "Mok Dan" (cuz I havent bothered to remember her real name) is continuing her streak of characters I hate. Laughing awkwardly, Soo-hyun denies the claim, and explains that Hoon acted so strangely around Seung-hee because the dead woman he truly loves does look uncannily like her. 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. He comes across . She adamantly refuses that shes Jae-Hee but Hoon doesn't accept that, believing that she is Jae-hee. Omggg you read my mind! However, as he later reveals to Chang-yi, hes still not sure about who Seung-hee is. Its sad because he thinks that shes only acting this way because he didnt look for her, and he does everything but get on his knees to apologize. It's nice to see the "good" 2nd lead in a K drama being the female one too--often if there's a "bad" and a "good" (rather than both bad or both good), it's the man that's good. And why in the preview did the how many kidneys thing come up yet again? I don't really see how the old age is helpful. Jin Se Yeon will undergo an acting transformation as the heroine of this turbulent romance that frequents between North and South Korea. Hoon, just by touching the patients chest, was able to picture the heart and immediately determine whats wrong. So the ending was actually more gratifying than it wouldve been just one episode ago, though Im not big on admitting that after an hour that was sluggishly grounded at best and frustratingly convoluted at worst. Poor Hoon is so bewildered that his Jae-hee doesnt recognize him, and Seung-hee ends up giving both halves of the bracelet to Soo-hyun before she heads into the hospital for work. Rate. Hoon remembers her kidney transplant (that he performed), which would leave the real Jae-hee with only one kidney. You will receive a link to create a new password via email.

Drunk hoon calls for jae hee because he's a bery love sick boi I watched Doctor Stranger only because of Lee Jong-Suk. Seriously. Sometimes, an inspiration is better left to be admired from a distance rather than to be possessed for yourself, doing so, only make it lose its meaning and significance. After an article appeared in Korean ladies magazine . If I didn't know better, based on all the skinship moments and her screentime I'd have said she was the female lead of the series. Add to it, I kept thinking LJS and Kang Sora will get together because they had real chemistry not the leads but no. Thus while I can see this drama worming itself happily in all sort of plot holes, but I don't think it will give us what we want in term of Hoon and Soo-Hyun kisses. She founded Empress Content Writing & Digital Marketing Services to help small entrepreneurs grow their business. the virtual jae hee that dr park sketched on us and how much we love them together because of it,,,,, has made me really excited about actually seeing them on the screen,, would it be as wonderful as dr park had made us picture it to be or i don't want to jinx it so i don't even utter the otherwise .i want to love them together on the screen please please ooze so much romance that our hearts keep pounding until the follow up episode He claims he used Smuggler Im as a cover, since he didnt want his involvement to be known until he found Jae-hee. if (d.getElementById(id)) return; He's desperate to save the woman he left behind in North Korea. I dropped it as soon as I reached the part where Park Hoon meets his old flame at the hospital like.. why? 13.4K Views. There he meets Han Seung-hee, a doctor who uncannily resembles Jae-hee. I also like the fact that both Hoon and Seung Hee (if JH is indeed SH that is) are not pure hero or heroines, that they do have shadows beneath their seemingly brighter facades. Shes the only doctor Ive seenstudyinghardin dramas (and shows and movies). And when I said cute, I was referring to the PH/JH scenes. But apparently PH looked really disappointed when he found out that she had 2 kidneys - but shouldn't he know that she would have 2 since she was the one who did the transplant? Dream High, That Winter The Wind Blows, and Biscuit Teacher Star Candy, if anyone's interested in knowing. Your email address will not be published. People kept doubting, wishing he'd change because she's in the past, etc But heck you don't tell a person who they have to love or who deserve their affection. I really enjoyed the drama because of the unique premise and think that LJS and JSY had great chemistry. She had to have her father's kidney transplanted into her to survive, so technically she has just one kidney. This is a place for discussions about your favorite Korean dramas (current and past), the actors and actresses, drama reviews, official soundtracks, news, award shows and more. Sometimes when leads don't have chemistry, it's fine because the storyline is engaging, but wow dr stranger had a frustrating storyline PLUS Park Hoon and Jae Hee had zero chem.
