Romantic Dr Kim 2 has a very special place in my heart. I rarely like second seasons for Dramas (one of the reasons I love Kdramas) but this one I was most excited for.
I thought season 1 could not be topped but the new characters in this are a lot less stuck up with the "I hate Doldam" energy that I felt the first season had. While that will always be a pull for the younger doctors it was refreshing to see younger doctors like Dr Yoon Ah Reum actually fall in love with the simplicity and move to Doldam. The 2 main leads have backstories that were fleshed out fairly well (okay I wish they went more into why Cha Eun Jae hates the OR).
Dr Kim has never been high up on the romance - it fleshes out the daily life of doctors in a hospital and not to mention the elaborate political schemes but the emotive eyes and the pure love that transpires among the hospital staff despite their busy life is something I love. It is really relatable especially as an adult trying to figure out love in the real world.
While the last episode had some spectacular moments, the love story felt super rushed. I wish they went more into the reality of working at the same hospital and the challenges/positives it brought to the couples.
That said, the OST IS PHENOMENAL. Dr Kim has always had a fantastic OST - I'm going to playing these songs for the next 3 years as well just like I did between the first season and this one :P
Han Suk Kyu as usual is outstanding. From satoori to his proud dad smile to his silently-supportive-Asian-dad nuances, he adds dimension to his character. Ahn Hyo Seop seems a little fresh but the love he has in his eyes had me falling for his character. With a little more practice and experience he can be a fantastic actor (and he is definitely easy on the eyes). The rest of the cast did an outstanding job as well (including the iconic Mr Gu <3). I sincerely hope there is a season 3 because I truly cannot get enough of Doldam... <3
