I enjoy your podcast a lot. It's like voicing out all of my thoughts especially your thoughts about the show's progress in season 2 since lately I've been reading it a lot and it would be a lie to say that it's not bothering me. I also don't see that anything has changed in season 2. I enjoy the show as much as season 1. I even love the latest episode, since it's also telling Seonbin's progress as a resident. As we all know, Seonbin wasn't shown as much in season 1 compared to the other residents. So, I don't really understand the complaint about season 2. And I'm glad that both of you are having the same thoughts.
Regarding the Korean audience, some of them also have complaints about the show. I've read the retweet about the complaints. But, I've got to agree with absoluteM that most of the Korean audiences are happy with the drama so far since the ratings are doing good.
Hi! Thanks for taking the time to write a feedback for this. I certainly hope that this place can be some kind of shelter from the storm of negativity for ones like yourself although I don't mind reading opinions different to my own from time to time.
I think a lot of fans forgot the original intent of PD--that it's slice of life in the everyday life of doctors and patients in Yulje.
As I've mentioned before, romance is neatly integrated in the patient/doctor stories. Hospital Playlist is one big puzzle. All pieces come together at some point to create a beautiful picture.
To focus on just one romance is a disservice because HP is not a romance drama so no matter how much I love WinterGarden, I really wouldn't like it if HP only focused on that.
I still feel like I'm the 6th friend where I see these doctors growing right before my eyes. I'm not always privy to everything they do or say to their respective/potential partners and that's fine with me.
This is my wishlist but I want to see Jeong-Won lose a patient and how he will deal with it. He was depicted in S1 as a rare breed who feels too much so I want to see how he'll handle losing a patient now with Gyeo-ul by his side. It would also be a good character development for Gyeo-ul to be a steady and stable presence for Jeong-won. If that situation is ever shown, then I feel that the relationship has come full circle.
I wouldn't mind seeing a scenario of that nature either. In fact when I was still commenting on another platform it was one of the aspects of their new dynamic I was looking forward to. It shouldn't always be Jeong-won playing the counsellor or sage to Gyeo-ul as well. I've always thought that her natural stoicism lends itself to being a support to Jeong-won.
The 6th friend perspective is a good one to take because it means an acknowledgement that you are only a privy to matters that the camera wants you to be and there is a reason for that. No one can be everywhere at once but hopefully what you see gives you reason to be optimistic about the future of medicine in SK -- that it is in good hands.
Really had a lot of fun chatting. Thanks for having me join you ! This season has met my expectations thus far. There were some surprises / unexpected revelations towards the end of eps 4 and now eps 5. The time jump promises a change in dynamics for the show . Looking forward to it.
I always enjoy our chats and I appreciate the way we interact.
As far as surprises are concerned, I didn't expect the way bildugi unfolded. It's not what I expected from Shin-Lee especially when they tend to avoid tropes like the plague.

That makes the two of us. Pain is part of life but this sort of trope is rather "makjang" considering their previous work.
