Wish Upon A Star
A drama that deserves more love
Watched this following a friend's recommendation, after a disappointing watch of Extraordinary Attorney Woo (EAW), and this certainly deserves more love.
Perhaps as a medical drama, the story of the autistic protagonist here is much more realistic than EAW. Through the growth and development of the autistic protagonist, Park Shi On (by Joo Won) to overcome struggles and gain acceptance and recognition from his colleagues, mentors, bosses, patients and their families, with his pure dream to be a good doctor, a good pediatric surgeon, there are also growth and development of the other three main roles, especially his mentor Kim Do Han (by Joo Sang Wook, who also played Jang Gang in Alchemy of Souls).
Plus medical emergencies of adorable kids that are guaranteed to strike a chord and more, and life lessons on dreams and love between siblings, colleagues and lovers.
Be charmed by the performance of Joo Won, Joo Sang Wook, Moon Chae Won and the children (young Park Shi On and the young patients).
Btw, this drama was so good that it had resulted in an American remake and a Japanese remake.
* What is a doctor to you? It’s the last hope. Even if everyone else gives up on a patient, a doctor must take care of the patient until the end.
* Then what is a patient to you? A friend that I must part with. I must treat patients like a friend and make sure they stay healthy even after leaving me, so they never come see me again.
* All doctors who think hard about what makes a good doctor are good doctors. And those people are all good people.
* There’s no qualification in loving someone. Instead.. If you genuinely and unconditionally love someone, you become qualified to care for that person. It’s a qualification only you possess.
* I know you’re sad that you can’t fulfill your dream. But you know what’s good about dreams? That you can have another dream. Just like you dream every night, you can have another dream. You don’t give up on your dreams, you just get new ones. Look. The ball from your first hit. You can make new firsts again. Whatever that is, you have to give that to me too.
