Doctor Slump (2024)

Rays of sunshine on a rainy day kind of drama. Little cliffhanger, but keeps one emotionally engaged

Very nice story with mostly realistic depiction of mental struggles. Quite relatable if one has been in a depression or cared for someone in a depression before. The story mostly makes sense and while the characters don't always behave rational, they do behave in ways that are relatable and human, giving the circumstances.

The overall tone of the drama is still uplifting and a ray of light in the gray fog type of thing. It never gets full on tragic and bleak or sad moments are always followed by specks of hope following them. This way the story writers prevent the "phase (/feeling) of totall hopelessness and everything is bad" that often is done in such dramas as a stark contrast before a happy end, even though it is a drama about two ppl at the lowest point in their live.

I must also say that I'm a sucker for relationships that help both ppl becoming better versions of themselves and giving strength, even though new romantic relationships are a very risky thing in these types of moments in reality (the mental instability types).

Ignore the music rating. I did not really pay attantion to that, so i just put (8/10) there as a number was required.

This might end up being my new comfort drama for when i need an escape from daily life.
Definetly recommended.

Before watching this I saw some people
say Ep1 was Meh and not that wow But
I'm already Sold off just when l'm done
with ep1 because AHH this is actually the
first Kdrama I've seen this year that
actually making me stay. I like The First
EP 1which is A SOLID start to building
the internal conflict and The Hook of a
show. makes a viewer wants to
know...what happens next. Pretty good
writing there tbh. that's what's needed in
a good 1st EP.
Impress me how they still Look good and
Young in Highschool! (Not Young as
realistic high schooler) BUT how are they
still so young omg. it's been years.
Acting wise l'm not worried AT ALL.
PARK shin Hye is serving and l'm glad she
is as always
Hyunsik wow. His facial expressions are
literally my fav type of things.
Effortlessly funny. me getting flashback
of MinMin
Excited for more. With 16 eps please
don't let me down!!

This is my first review ever for a drama series. Just 2 episodes in and I’m loving it already. As someone who had suffered the Burnout Syndrome years ago, the story resonates with me so much. I was so moved by the female lead and I cried with the two leads at the end of Ep 2.

Male lead’s predicament also incidentally echoes the recent tragedy of an actor when he suffered a dramatic fall from grace. The line between right and wrong is blurred. Years of hard work and success could be destroyed just overnight.

The premise is dark and heavy yet the series injects hope and narrates its story in a bright and lighthearted manner. There’s in fact plenty of LOL moments. (Hyungsik is so funny 😆)

Good story, great humor and brilliant acting so far. This healing drama deserves all of the hype and more. Hope it gets even better. Just stream it.

Hmm...

Looks very promising. i'm just hoping it won't be as draggy once were in the middle of the show's episodes.
So far i'm pretty impressed with shin hye's acting, I think she improved; She's been getting so much hate for her acting, even though she's not even bad. I would just say she has a style to her acting. And hyung sik is always a cute puppy.
Although his character is giving me nothing at the moment, i'm hoping to see more of the characters' real personality.
cause i feel like no one is truly carefree. either way i'm ecstatic to see where this goes!

Also Woohoo, my first review after a year!!!!
