Usually I stray away from period/historical dramas, but I wanted to give this one a go for my boy Mario and his pairing with Kimberly since this would be their first. And let me just tell you that I was not disappointed at all! I enjoyed the story line because I think it was unique and different from the cliche aspect most dramas like to take, but with that being said, it also still contains just enough of them, because hey, we all love cliches.

When I first read the synopsis before watching, I was really curious on how they could make a drama about someone wanting to become a doctor interesting, and boy, did they do it! Seriously, this drama has the perfect amount of comedy, drama, romance, and moments where you also get a little teary.

I absolutely adore Thong Ake's and Chaba's characters in here. Thong Ake is goofy, but intelligent, kind, and sincere. I have a soft spot for Chaba's character because I feel like I can relate to her a lot growing up lol. She's stubborn and persistent but all for the good reasons. She does what she wants and doesn't let some stupid gender roles define her. All of their scenes after their marriage was swoon worthy. I just love how cheesy they are, and you can tell how much they love and care for each other. I go back to rewatch their lovey-dovey scenes a lot.

The villain was also caught early and was out of the main story a lot sooner than most, which I really like, because for god sake, I hate it so much when dramas drag their story about a villain, and they waste like another 4-5 episodes for it. After the villain is gone, the plot was focused more on the main characters and their struggles surrounding their circumstances (which is good) rather than trying to eliminate someone they should've caught like 4 episodes ago.

Now onto some criticism I have about the drama, although there isn't that many, but I felt as if though Kla's and Pong's relationship could've used some more building up. Their romance felt very rushed and forced in a way. They only had a couple scenes together before and suddenly they're already in bed with each other? Very unrealistic, although I could understand it was more of a "in the moment" kind of thing, but still, it had so much more potential. Kla was also very on and off towards Pong. Like bruh do you like her or not? I also do not like how they replay some funny clips. I understand it's a comedy thing, but then seeing it for the second or third time takes away the funny factor.

Also like rqueen said, Margie's and Nichkun's appearance was very unnecessary and served no purpose, at least for the story, but I guess it was nice seeing them as guests.

Other than that, I strongly recommend it! You will not be disappointed! There is never a boring episode, and every time an episode ends, it always leave you wanting to know more about what will happen next!
