interesting plotline, bad execution
When I saw this on Netflix I was elated. I mean, two academic rivals meeting each other again at the lowest point of their lives resulting in them finding solace in each other? AND falling in love in the process? That's literally my cup of tea. Unfortunately, I ended up being disappointed.First and foremost, I disliked the romance. I barely felt anything between the leads. Their chemistry was nonexistent. I could tell they were going for a slow-burn romance. But where were the subtleties that makes a slow-burn a GOOD slow-burn? Instead we have Jeong Woo ignoring his own feelings towards Ha Neul, knowing deep down he likes her. Girl, the whole world knows you like her. I'm tired of those clichés.
The theme surrounding mental health was well explained. However, the comedic aspect ruined it all; it felt off-putting. Though, maybe that's just a preference considering I love mature dramas without comedy more than whatever-this-is.
Ending my review as I've only watched 5 out of 16 episodes

Simply not good
I think the whole idea of this drama was better on the creator's head. Good idea to bring some awareness about mental health issues and many other factors that a doctor might have to go through their career.Sadly, very bad executed.
I really love fun and cheesy dramas, don't get me wrong. This one was just cringey and sometimes fun (barely). The acting was not good, many scenes felt forced and rushed, the romance evolved in a way that doesn't catch you kicking your feet because of how cheesy it is.
Watching it felt like they were going in one direction and then suddenly make this rough change when you are starting to "connect" with what's going on, if it was more organized, maybe I could have been better, but it was really messy and hard to watch. I was forcing myself to watch it just because I wanted to know more about how was he sabotaged in his surgery, but it is not worth watching the whole thing.
Boring, pretty female lead, male lead feels like a cheap copy of the male lead of our beloved summer back to school, good OST.
Simply, not good.

series with well-written plot
Doctor Slump is an unmissable series for fans of medical dramas, romance and stories about human life. This fabulous production addresses delicate topics such as mental health, forgiveness, trauma, love, second chances and the overwhelming routine of modern life. Its narrative is captivating, moving and fun. The cast is wonderful, the performances are impeccable and the characters are very well constructed. The viewer who chooses to delight in this work will have their time well spent and will be pleased with the message left (very welcome in the contemporary world): when necessary, seek help in order to have the necessary strength to endure and overcome sadness , misfortunes and fears; learn to suffer for a short time, cherish good memories for a long time and deal with feelings in a healthy way, harmonizing thoughts. Remember: "IF THERE IS SADNESS, THERE WILL BE HAPPINESS TOO".Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
A beautiful soul searching story - Please do watch!
Reading the top reviews, I believe people have not truly understood the meaning of this drama. it's not a regular drama, but the meaning and purpose behind this drama is altogether touching and healing.We all long for such people in lives and that's what bas been depicted. As said in other comments, I believe the romance is not a cringe, not boring and infact quite healing. The entire storyline is well knit, and the music is just way beyond expectations. Not all stories need to make your heart beats high, but some should be soothing and healing. 100 percent rewatch value and please don't go by the comments. Experience this lovestory yourselves. Hot Chocolate recommended ❤️
Both the actors are phenomenal, and my favourites. Have seen them grow as actors and have done a wonderful portrayal of characters. This drama definitely atleast deserves a rating of 9.5.

"If there’s sadness, there will always be happiness as well."
The emotional attachment I felt for this drama and characters is beyond comprehension. I cried when they held hands for the first time...i CRIED because they HELD HANDSAt first, I was hesitant to start 'doctor slump', there were so many low and average reviews, people saying it got tiring half through the season or that the characters weren't enjoyable to follow. It's safe to say I disagree with most (if not all) of it.
For the first time, I felt what those characters were feeling, I was happy when they were happy and sad when they were sad. I cared for them the same way I care for a friend. Watching 'doctor slump' was like living through these people's lives with them, suffering but also fighting for happiness with them. My knowledge of english is not enough to express how I feel about this story. I've never felt so strongly about something in my life lol
Even though I gave it a 10 and it is definitely my favorite kdrama I've watched so far, it did have a single con, but it was easy to overlook since what I loved about it was way stronger than anything else. My only complaint is the childlike attitude these characters in there 30s have towards a relationship, which happens quite often in kdramas, but it felt exaggerated in this one (they kissed like 2 times and got shy about it even after months of dating, like bffr). With this out of the way, everything else was everything I needed it to be. I liked every single character, bad or good, they had a purpose to be there, and I didn't feel the need to skip a single second of it. I enjoyed every scene with Haneul's family and with 2FL and 2ML, and as someone who tends to find side stories too boring, i was surprised and satisfied.
The ending was also satisfying. I'm always scared to start a new kdrama and be disappointed by the last episode (business proposal, im looking at you).

Doctor Slump
I feel like this will be full of unpopular opinions so first of all I do not find Park Shin Hye's acting bad and I like her character. Park Hyung Sik was perfect in this drama and once again unpopular but I love his character here while I do not really like his role in Strong Woman Do Bong Soon which can be found weird cause his characters were similar. I like chemistry between main leads and their story also l love second leads couple. Story contains topics as trauma and depressions so maybe not for everyone but it is really a good healing type of drama.The last unpopular opinion is that it is one of my favourite drama's from 2024, I strongly believe that it is worth watching.

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.

THIS DRAMA IS A GOOD WARM HUG
Will always be a doctor slump defender. This drama is soo refreshing and gave me good laugh. This series is like a warm bowl of soup you would have in cold winter morning. For those who says this drama is boring, your opinion is rejected sorry not sorry. This show focuses on mental health and how the characters handle their emotions or feelings which they never considered of caring about before for the first time The way they potrayed the progress, it felt so good. There has not been one single ep ( except for 14 ) where i did not laugh. I don't think i ever laughed so much in a drama like this one before. I am never a type of person who would rewatch a series but this one? i remember i finished ep 2 after it got aired and immediately rewatched the ep because it was that good and im considering to rewatch the whole drama soon. I do agree that it got a little stretched towards the end and should've finished at 12 ep, but regardless it is still a really really amazing series. And i felt so proud towards the main characters in the end because of their progress. 10/10 for meVond je deze recentie nuttig?
two people healing each other ?
it‘s been a while since i watched it, but boy the bad reviews - i gotta say that this got me into kdramas after a slight kdrama slump (how ironic lol?). park shin hye‘s acting improved, thats my personal opinion. as for park hyung sik, i‘ve always loved the dramas i watched with him in it. the story is calm but interesting. Its not as eventful, but for me just the perfect amount? first of all i love the tropes. academic rivals just do it for me. I love the bickering between the leads. i loved their relationship sm. their interactions???the ml was too cute i simply cant with their cuteness! adressing the criticism according their alcohol consumption - yes they drank a lot. yes its not good with anti depressants, but it is a drama still. not everything is as realistic?☝?Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Who stays with you at your bottom
Right so I'm not usually fan of rom com and the reviews were making me so confused whether I should watch it or not I went in without any expectations and can't tell how fast the time went with this drama I watched it in one day it was funny it was emotional it had its momentsit also tells how life doesn't remain the same one day you have everything and the other you have nothing it's the people who not only stays with you at the the top but also when you are at the bottom same as the heroine was with the hero at his low and hero with heroine at her low and I found the leads quite funny and relatable and I barely like 2nd couples but this 2nd couple was so cute and the fight of their couple was so cute when they were drunk overall the drama is definitely a solid 9 for me don't listen to people who are saying it's bad I am not even a fan of romantic genre yet I found it so good everyone definitely give it a try also

Fantástico
Médicos em Colapso, uma história empolgante, linda, delicada trazendo o tema central muito bem trabalhado, atores ótimos que dão vida a um belíssimo enredo! É uma história que apensar de ir e voltar no tempo, soube situar com maestria essa linha do tempo. E o que dizer do final? Uma narrativa que soube dar um excelente fechamento aos diversos enredos e histórias paralelas que foram surgindo. Apesar de querer dar um sustinho no final, somos agraciados com a concretização de uma bela história de romance que tem final feliz!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
