Crappy soap opera disguised as a medical drama

If you are looking for a medical drama showcasing professional ethics, you won't find it here. The so-called doctors act like hoodlums constantly yelling in front of patients and purposely setting each other up to fail. Instead of writing a story about complex medical issues, the writers proceed to bore us with a trashy soap opera and hospital politics filled with juvenile bickering and medical malpractice. There is also no plot. The show just moves along from one medical emergency to another without a central idea tying everything together. The characters are shallow and unlikable, focused too much on their interpersonal relationships instead of doing their job as doctors, and, there is hardly any romance. Do In Bum could've been interesting, but he is just a prop with no purpose or a personality. The writers do attempt to utilize cliches but they go nowhere. The reason behind Yoon Seo Jung's silly trauma is incredibly asinine and feels like a half-assed attempt to manufacture tension that is pretty much forgotten in later episodes. And, the love rectangle between the main couple, Im Bum, and Woo Yeon Hwa fizzles out as soon as it starts.

The villain is a cookie cutter bad guy with shallow motivations and no coherent reason for any of his actions. He mindlessly tries to destroy Master Kim's career because of some medical mishap over a decade ago and behaves like a petulant child rather than an experienced medical professional in charge of a hospital. Moreover, he has an absurd amount of power for a hospital director who is somehow able to influence the military, press, politicians, and pretty much everyone around him without any explanation why.

I don't understand all of the positive reviews. The show is a marathon of trashy melodrama with no plot or interesting characters. Pass.
