Doctor Cha

Lots of good drama, not necessarily your run-of-the-mill medical drama, the medical setting is simply to make the drama more interesting. Episode 6 was almost edge-of-the-seat kind, fun to watch. Give it a chance, you won't regret.

It is binge watch worthy, so if you would rather do that wait until mid June '23 for all episodes to be out.

The characters do justice to their roles, acting is excellent. There are some cringe moments, but if you are willing to ignore them, you will enjoy watching it all.

The story advances with every episode with a good pace, it is not too much talking and not much happening.

Although I have only seen 5 episodes, I was hooked after the first 15 minutes of the 1st episode.. I adore the cast which is truly amazing and believable. I was first introduced to kdramas on Netflix and my playlist is mostly filled with them! I wish the USA would learn from kdramas on showing the respect between the cast and giving the audience a chance to use their imaginations instead of showing every sexual detail. Everybody should give Dr Cha a chance before forming an opinion that you will ultimately regret. The only problem I have with this show is that it's only shown on the weekends!!

Really looked forward to each new episode in the beginning but the series gradually goes downhill as time goes on. The husband is a cheating jerk who cheats at work right in front of his wife and son and co- workers at work. His wife loyally raising his children for 20 years before restarting her career at the hospital where her husband and cheating mistress works. A brat secret love child tops it off. Plenty of pity and blame and illness - and went bad in my opinion with an unsatisfying ending. Am glad Netflix is adding more K-Drama for us lately however saw a few others that had some better script.

Dr. Cha is the woman many of the Millennials are, the ones who started with a promising career and was left behind not because not being smart but because life happens and many of us, had to choose priorities as being wives or being career woman. Some women were successful in this because their spouses were very supportive, but we all know that all Dr's Cha, are the one who gave all for their spouses and the spouses did not support at all so it went downfall. The story is amazing, is great and thank God is not another Grey's anatomy, but a story that affects woman millennials society, and since humanism is a thing that explains how and why we repeat stupid behavior like this even if is in the Pacific Ocean area or In the Atlantic we are all victims of our own condition. And I hope women take this in consideration to not repeat what having a relationship to please our parents doesn't really help us in the future. So, lesson learned. Now, the other side of the story I really think the financial future holds in the women and men returning to their main educational roots, and I believe the universities, do need to take their idealist hypocrisy regulations and shove them on a hole in the dirt and let the new ones grow. We need more new regulations that benefit people like me in their 40's and smarter that the current clueless student population.

No Spoilers, just some pros and cons.

Pros

The acting was very good. I would call out Kim Kyung-Chul for his portrayal of Sea In-Ho, the jerk husband. Of course we don't like his character, but he did a truly superb job of navigating jerkiness and having regret. I would also call out Jo Adam for her role as Jeon So-Ra. It looks like she does not have a lot of acting experience, but the way she portrayed a cranky, domineering personality was quite subtle and skillful.

I liked the storyline and the message they were trying to communicate.

Everything that happened in the story was believable, even if unlikely.

Cons Somehow the series did not draw my wife and I in as much as our favorite KDramas. Despite some touching scenes, we were not too emotionally invested in the characters.

The ending was O. K., and I think sent a nice message, but again we were sort of just, "Oh, it's over. What will we watch next?" Rather than feeling like we would miss the story and characters. The story just sputtered to a halt. There a number of things they could have done to tie everything up to a greater extent.

So overall, not bad, but not great. So a 7 ranking.
