If you're not familiar in hospital/medical term, Code Blue are used in hospitals to alert the EMS Department and staff to various emergencies. The scene they head towards is always the worst and sometimes can't help but deal with the situations they are in whether it's good or bad. And those events will always work together for their own good as a doctor. Now, what does it mean to be a doctor?
This is not a drama with "at the edge on your seat". What I like in this series is the "Character Development" so it's not really about the intense to medical term but rather how those intern struggle to become a certified doctors. Though the season 1 has a cheesy scenes and you might find some problematic character or the actor/actress maybe? LOL. But still, you have to watch it before proceeding to Season 2.
The series may be too slow, Season 2 is way better than Season 1. The characters will slowly change and goes to their background. The story itself doesn't need to narrate each of their past, the "sympathy and compassion" alone towards their patients is what makes and already tell who they really are.
Each episode clearly illustrate the cruelty of medical society, it's sad but that's the reality. There were several heart-rending scenes and the OST is good. Not superb but enough to set the atmosphere.
I remember one thing in this drama that, "Taking a long way is not a bad thing, instead it'll bring out the best thing inside someone."
Hontouni, it's burdened a bit and yet inspiring. Life is mysterious, deeply painful at times, yet always beautiful. We all have memories of loved ones whom we have lost. Being a doctor is not an easy job. When grieving the loss of life of their patients, the intensity of their human emotions is actually a testament to the value of human life. And that will change your life forever. Am I too dramatic, ne? I'm not even a doctor myself. Sumi-masen! XD
Overall, I think the drama wasn’t as engaging as other Jdoramas I’ve seen although I have to applaud the writer somehow for some of the well written dialogues. What I like in Jdoramas is usually they have these almost poetic dialogues and sometimes, they speak in their thoughts. So I gave it 8 + 1 (For Erika Toda) = 9. As you watch this one, you may have to be attentive and careful observation between the characters.. No, you don't need to over-analyze it. XD
I love Hanabi by Mr. Children. Moving and sad.
"What value left is there
in this world I live in?
I start thinking its all meaningless
or maybe I’m just tired?"
"We all have our problems
but we hope for a better tomorrow
I wonder to what extent we can love a world
gripped by fear, thrown into unrest?"
PS.
I've read a small trivia somewhere. The main three character’s names were actually related with colors.
Ai zawa == Blue (calm)
Shirai shi == White (passive)
Hi yama == Red (emotional)
Also, a Japanese saying that Blue means “vein”, White means “gauze”, Red means “artery”. XD

I would have given it a straight 10 in all categories but the instrumental music in season 2 did feel a tad too repetitive so I gave it a 9. Having said that, it was played effectively at the right times to enhance the emotional factor so for that I'd definitely give it a 10, not to mention the theme itself was poigantly beautiful and well composed for the drama.
All in all, a must watch for all drama lovers! ^^
It's definitely one of my faves now n_n.

From the first episode you'll be hooked by the story and yearning for next episode. I had a hard time not watching all episodes at once, I had to restrain myself to not watch it all at one go. The dissapointement when I realized it's over was overwhelming, I just wanted more!
I miss it already!
If you liked Bloody Monday and Bridal Mask, you really should try this drama out! The only warning I'll give is that if you're sensitive to strong images. The drama does after all take place in a hospital, so there will be some pictures of blood and such things. Still, try it out! You really won't regret it! :)

Story: This season is more personal- and you could tell with the first episode. With most if not all of the original cast; it makes you nostalgic and gives you a sense of security that you know who you're watching and what they are like. This season is also fantastically paced, never a dull moment as the new challenges that this season brings pulls you in; sympathizing with the characters. Every episode deals with a new medical challenge that would make you curious and intrigued as to how the team will tackle their new problems.
Acting: With the same cast as the last season; you feel a sense of security and safety- knowing who the characters are and how they work together, you will not be disappointed.
Music: Same old music as last season- but it doesn't become a bother as the soundtrack is beautiful
Rewatch: Like the first season, I will definitely revisit and watch both seasons once again as medical dramas (like this rare one) have a special spot in my heart.
Genre? Family- This season deals with heavier challenges each character faces, as it touches you on a personal level. With every episode, you will understand each character more and realize and understand the choices they make.
Romance? Family Romance is more prominent- although like the last season, if you squint- perhaps you'll find something there *winks

Urgencesjaponaises en hélicoptère...
J'ai continué avec "Code blue", les deux saisons et le SP (très bien fait, pas du tout le SP nul habituel)Bon c'est du drama médical, si vous n'aimez pas le genre où ça saigne, passez votre chemin, mais on sent un grand souci de réalisme et de vraisemblance, tout en restant grand public quand même et il y a une très jolie distribution : outre Yamapi (qui a un rôle important, mais les autres stagiaires également, ce n'est pas le truc centré sur l'idol !) on retrouve Toda Erika (bien connue, depuis Nobuta et HYD, en passant par Liar game et BOSS... )Yui Aragaki (bien connue aussi par Dragonzakura, My Boss my hero, Smile, legal High..;) Yosuke Asari (Tiger and dragon, Rich man, poor woman...) et pas mal de seconds rôles très bien choisis et bien interprétés. J'ai préféré la première saison et son SP, la seconde un peu trop larmoyante à mon goût. L'histoire de ces quatre internes intégrant les Urgences héliportées se suit avec plaisir, chacun ayant sa personnalité et son histoire propres.
Je fais ce marathon pour voir Yamapi évoluer et je dois dire qu'il est assez impressionnant par la façon dont il intègre les différents personnages qu'il incarne, aussi bien un médecin urgentiste qu'un basketteur professionnel ! ça donne l'impression de quelqu'un de très sérieux, qui étudie à fond l'univers où il va évoluer, et c'est un sentiment des plus sympa ! Ce n'est pas du tout "l'idol" dont la présence ne s'explique que par ses chansons (là, vaut mieux pas !! ) ou par sa jolie frimousse !! En tous cas, moi, il m'impressionne !!
