Aizawa Aug 09 2021 10:56 am @Elle, hahaha... you actually count that? Wow, I'm impressed! Can I join too? And, yeah! KBS really didn't deserve this beautiful drama! Shame on them for reducing the episodes just because of the low ratings! I have watched Beautiful Mind for four times & I did not regret my decisions to choose this drama than Doctor Crush during that time~

Elle Jun 15 2021 11:23 am Day 1827 of not forgiving KBS for reducing the episodes of this great underrated gem

Renwa Mar 17 2021 4:32 pm WOW...what an outstanding drama...well researched script, well developed characters, ethical & other real issues found in the world of hospitals & surgery. That it supposedly got lower ratings is Rey unfortunate & perhaps a reflection of uninformed commercial interests...as in life imitating art in the drama. My own personal background as a now retired professional in health care & someone who had two loved ones successfully face very high risk neurosurgery gives me an unusual perspective on this drama. The drama is very nuanced, dynamic & SPOT ON! Surgeons are known to be a special breed & this drama really captured it all. I thoroughly enjoyed it all...very fine cast...Jang Hyuk did an extraordinary job as did all who put their heart into this drama. BRAVO to all. ?

Jessica Nov 30 2020 11:05 am I tried to watched it because of Jang Hyuk. And i loved this drama regardless of the rating. Jang Hyuk was a superb actor! I just can't get to like Park So Dam (sorry my bad).

GLOW Oct 23 2020 2:37 am I discovered this drama by random, for me it is one of the best dramas I watched . My doctor Lee Young, this character development was extraordinary! I am unable to pass to another drama because I miss him so much!!??

Hmmm Aug 10 2020 3:01 am why did no one even realise that jang ki-yong was there

truefeather77 Aug 02 2020 8:31 pm Jang Hyuk is, as always, marvelous. He brings intelligence, subtlety, and shadings of emotion that are fascinating and compelling.

The female lead is immature and merely earnest. Despite being about 25 when this was aired, she acts like she’s a teenager working on her Girl Scout detective skills badge. He’s supposed to be a bit older than her, but 15 years is a bit much, especially when she seems determined to keep getting child discounts in restaurants until she’s 90.

Thanks to J. H., their interchanges still come off fascinating. He lets her perennial perkiness translate as youthful inexperience as a detective, and his character slices through her excuses with ease.

I love the face of the actor who plays his father! Fascinating – you could watch it for entire episodes. Still, it is Jang Hyuk Who leaves it all together and helps temper the unbearable suspense with depth and believability.

Kybc Jul 29 2020 7:16 am Love Jang hyuk (JH) here! The lead actress really can’t keep up w JH act.. this a disappointment! Other than that, JH acting is awesome as always!

Mel Jun 23 2020 6:57 am Why do I feel more emotions from the emotionless doctor than the detective??? Park So Dam can't keep up with Jang Hyuk's acting. Why oh why??? ? I can't feel her in this very heartwarming series ??☹️

madzzie May 03 2020 10:45 am Exceptional! Jang Hyuk is incredible!

Inmyheart, dr Jul 08 2019 11:09 am Regardless of the rating, this is a beautiful story. This is the nth time i have watched, and i still find it amazing & full of warmth. All the actors are good. Jang hyuk played a character that was strange yet charming whilst park so dam was great in her role. After a hard day’s work, this is the kind of story that will not drown & drag your emotion up & down. Instead, with all the dramas in it, it will still give you hope while gently soothes you. So again i have nothing else to say except that i truly love the story. Anyeong hehe

Bunnyarmy Jun 18 2019 12:54 pm I watched this again after years.Still I get addicted.Amazing wonderful story.I love the chemistry between 2leads .Theur romance is so beautiful.This is a good medical drama.I love Dr Hyun too,my typical ideal doctor.Hyun Min oppa is very handsome here.

Elektra Sanders Jun 05 2019 7:10 am That KBS never deserved this amazing drama. It should have been on MBC, at least they wouldn't have reduced the ep count despite the low ratings.

rj Mar 09 2019 11:04 am it was good korean drama and i love it. i watch many of the medical korean dramas and i love to watch a medical and romance korean drama.I look forward for more of the medical korean drama.good job. I've already watched the following kdrama (Doctor Stranger) (Doctor's) (Good Doctor) (Doctor Romantic) (Heart Surgeon) (Hospital Ship) and (Beautiful Mind). I love all those kdrama and i want more of that.

Lala Jan 27 2019 10:20 am I don’t know why this got low ratings but I loved this drama. This is where I fell in love with Jang Hyuk, lol.

sen-na Jan 02 2019 1:28 am This was my favorite medical drama after Romantic Doctor. At first I was so irritated by Gye Jin Sung. But after seaside episode I liked her a bit, still I couldn't love the character. But Lee Young Oh was superb all the time. Jang Hyuk was amazing. He didn't show his emotions but he also didn't looked like a psychopath. There was a balance. I watched his other series, but this became my favourite. I liked Jin Sung and Young Oh's relationship. We could see the evolution between them, at least Young Oh's side. The side characters were good. I really liked "power rangers" - looked like their only job is gossip -, Nurse Jung and Dr. Yang (although I waited to see his mom). In the end I wanted to see Nurse Jung and her baby. And I think the experiment case was a blow. Why did Kang Chul Min died? What did he know? How did he know? And the regenerative treatment deaths were covered. Nobody was punished except "maybe" Dr. Chae. It couldn't be enough. Despite all the mistakes, this is a good drama. It is sad that it wasn't appreciated enough.

Shsh Jun 01 2018 12:14 am @Pri and @Zozo too bad you guys have a different taste in dramas. It's too bad that you didn't appreciate it. Better luck next time. LOL

This drama is superb. 10/10 Jang Hyuk is amazing as always and the leads chemistry was so good!

Pri May 22 2018 11:25 am I completely agree with Zozo....one of the most boring kdramas that I’ve watched so far....Hyuk offers nothing new...the female lead has no screen presence whatsoever, thus no chemistry between the lead pairs...and the story itself was just a drag,very predictable...the same old plot line with a authoritative father....the series didn’t appeal to me neither as a commercial entertainer nor as a product of art house.

Dream May 16 2018 3:46 pm This one is still my favorite medical drama watching this twice never get bored with the story. I can feel the emotion and chemistry between two lead. The plot is also good. You should watch this if you like medical drama

screen4max May 02 2018 4:07 pm it’s the best programme network thank you

ridwan Mar 28 2018 10:17 pm Amazing drama and lead

Izumi Feb 24 2018 8:03 pm Amazing story !!!!

malanie Jan 24 2018 5:18 pm i see Beautiful Mind movie i give him 8/10 awsome Cast awsome drama

yeah Jan 18 2018 2:46 am @Zozo you are the only person who wrote a negative comment about this drama. LOL.

liar Jan 05 2018 1:33 pm curious to see episode 15 16, why not broadcast despite low rating, very disappointing

assw Jan 05 2018 1:15 pm where ep 15 and 16 omg

Heyo Jan 02 2018 2:39 am It's pretty much good...First thought was boring but the feels though

Helen Jan 01 2018 8:50 am This is a good drama, a realization in the medical field.

Zozo Jan 01 2018 6:06 am Now I understand why the ratings were low cause man this drama was boringggg and I'm the type that has to finish a drama even if it is bad because I feel hopeful but nope nothing hopeful here.....The only good outcome was the ost in this show was nice but that's all folks

Supernatural Dec 14 2017 11:52 pm This drama is a much watch drama.. I dont care about the ratings, one thing is for sure dont rely/believed in the ratings. I donr really understand why this drama was underrated.. No words can describe how spectacular this drama is. Highly recommended. The chemistry between thr two leads was great.

Charmaine Lee Nov 18 2017 9:10 pm ??amazing drama ... don't care about the ratings "it's a beautiful series ...

Grace Nov 16 2017 4:44 pm I really don't understand why the rating is very low. Watch the drama for yourselves. The story itself is amazing, the chemistry between the leads are so good and add the power rangers are so funny ?. For a Kdrama fan like me who watched over 100 KDramas, this is one on my "Must watch list".

Lyn Nov 15 2017 2:28 am Beautiful Mind is a must watch drama...the lead actor & actress (Jang Hyuk & Park So Dam) is awesome..their age gap didn't make them awkward

Ngo Nov 03 2017 11:50 am It’s a good drama. Main actor and actress are super.

KdramaMakesmeHAPPY Oct 31 2017 4:19 pm This is one of the best korean dramas I've watched. Chemistry between the 2 lead actors is daebak!

Anna Oct 27 2017 10:57 pm I love the male lead and female lead's chemistry... Omo!! I was screaming when they kiss.. ??

nneka Oct 19 2017 8:34 am I love this drama and that OST dirt is awesome

Vanez Sep 19 2017 9:08 pm Gonna miss power rangers :D

Ica Sep 07 2017 3:17 am This drama is daebak. Never trust the ratings ??

nguyenominia Aug 19 2017 12:01 am so sorry for K viewers didnt feel this drama's good. A drama was excellent both content and acting. I m really so impressed with the dialogues n the actors in this drama, especielly the lead couple actors, their acting were so attractive. The dialogues were so so good, extremely meaningful and very human.

SunvSoc Aug 18 2017 11:22 pm Thanks to the writer, who wrote if u wants to find a good quality korean dramas, dont rely on rating to choose, So exactly. its really rare to see a good K drama, that is both excellent in content and acting like this drama. So so good.

Narwastu Bali Aug 18 2017 11:16 pm whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.... Oh My God!!!! really like this drama???? but why.... not trust low ratings.... just quality of drama is more better.... really really this drama :'(

Anonymous Aug 07 2017 9:44 am Scene when he cried the first time - Nuff said. This drama is beautiful. Never trust the ratings people.

riatixic Aug 07 2017 6:42 am low ratings?!!! my gosh! thats sad! this drama deserve more ratings. i want more episodes of this.

DiJay Jul 29 2017 8:46 am Just finished watching this for the 2nd time.. And im still in love with this drama.. I have watched doctors, ot was a good drama but this is waaaaaaaaay better.. One of the dramas that i wish i can erase from my memory and rewatch it again. Even so, thisnis the 2nd time ive wathed and i still got the same feeling. Uri Jang Hyuk is such a great actor. Jang hyjk and Ji Sung are my fave actors of all time and that includes hollywood actors.. If you are planning to watch this and havin 2nd thoughts bec of the ratings, pls watch it. I dont believe in ratings anymore after watching this.. Just like kim bok joo ans scarlet heart. Underrated dramas are the great ones. Thank you for making such a beautiful drama. Thank you Lee Jong Suk for rejecting the role because Jang Hyuk definitely nailed it. Jang Hyuk oppa... Saranghaeyo!

Arihant Jul 17 2017 7:53 am Excellent! A medical drama that dares to show us an unsympathetic lead character for nearly its entire duration and when it hits you with the truth,it is heartbreaking

Beautifully filmed and impressively led by Jang Hyuk,this will make you question your everyday choices and the many things we take in our life for granted. Surprisingly underrated (probably due to competition with "Doctors") .The lead pair's romance is a breath of fresh air throughout.Thr ost esp.Dirt is beautiful. Not your usual drama but pays off beautifully in the end

P. S. -I understand that have used the word "beautiful" a number of times but then, that is the feeling the drama leaves you with.

egybom Jun 08 2017 9:16 pm it’s the best programme network thank you

Ha Neul Jun 06 2017 2:23 pm Teddy I totally agree with you. This drama is by far better than doctors, in fact I would go as far to say that this drama is one of the best dramas I have ever seen. The characters grow so much but in a realistic way, it also shows parts of life that aren't normally discussed. This drama is what inspired me to go into medicine but it also made me one of Jang Hyuk's fans. He really does an excellent job at being young o. Park so dam brings brightness to the whole drama so I love her for that too. It such a shame that its underrated because in fact its incredibly well written and well acted. I congratulate everyone who took part I'm this wonderful masterpiece.

Mastermind May 13 2017 7:29 am Just entering ep 5.voice bring me here.i love jang hyuk acting very much.good plot, awesome drama.but i dont really like the lead actress.why she always making assumption and doing decesion recklessly.she does not suit to be a policewman?

Teddy Apr 30 2017 8:13 am I'm a doctor myself really avoid any medical dramas because I dont want to have headache while watching kdramas in my freetime. But this is exception, I love how the characters develop and from what I heard this drama ended shortly because of doctors by psh? Tch. These days people dont know what is art, what a shame.

cima Apr 10 2017 3:57 pm What an amazing drama!! I wish there were many more episodes! Jang Hyuk, incredible as always!!

beka Apr 10 2017 3:57 pm This one is the best medical dramas I have ever watched!

Aizawa Mar 27 2017 12:34 pm This drama have 'hurt' me beautifully~~ Totally love it! I watched Doctors first because of PSH and the second male lead but after ep.5 or ep.6, it became a bit boring and cheesy~ (I like simple and cute love story. Well, everyone have their own taste though ^^v) I love the main lead's pain (LYO) in this drama about how he is being regarded as psychopath by his own dad and everyone around him, the relationships between LYO and his father, the political isssue on regenerative medicine, the relationships between doctors and patients, the simple and cute romance (even though there is not so much skinships, but I love it! ^^) & lastly, the Power Rangers Team~ XD

This will be my second fav medical drama after Good Doctor*

Alissa Algarate Mar 19 2017 1:57 am I don't like medical dramas but this drama is an exemption!!! I love the story and I was always excited watching every episodes. The actors did a great job! Wanna give them a big thumbs up! I'm really sad because this is an underrated drama. How come? Huhuhu 14 episodes isn't enough ??? Btw, this is my first time writing a comment because this drama deserves a big applause ????????

Isabella Mar 07 2017 7:18 am This one is the best medical dramas I have ever watched! Jang Hyuk is an incredible actor hands down! Doctor Lee came to life with his immaculate performance. What a great storyline! I give it 100 upon 100. If I could I would have given it 500! What an excellent execution and what an impactful plot! A must watch for everyone who loves a good story with superb performance. Those who love medical drama it's a must watch for them. I was so sad when I learned they cut it short from 16 to 14! I don't understand how such an incredible drama got such low ratings! People really don't understand intellectual plots. They only bother about mushy romance. So sad. :( this series in my opinion should have atleast 20 epis if not more.

Vanyushka Mar 06 2017 12:43 am What an amazing drama!! I wish there were many more episodes! Jang Hyuk, incredible as always!! What an actor, his dramas and movies are always such great quality. I love everything he's been in, especially 'Chuno/Slave Hunters' and 'Fated to Love You'. Still have to finish 'Deep Rooted Tree',starting asap. I'm sure it'll be amazing, like everything he does. He is so versatile and great in all those different roles. So sorry this series was cut short! I love medical drama and this one had such good stories and interesting cases. I liked it more than 'Grey's Anatomy', honestly.

Dokkaebi Shinbu Feb 27 2017 10:15 am I really liked this drama. I believe that it is not recognized enough because it is aired alongside with Doctors. I just hate it when people watch dramas because of theactors in it and they are not into what the story is giving. I was so sad that the episodes of this drama was cut out </3

zerah Feb 25 2017 4:27 am My goodness gracious, what a wonderful drama! One of the best! What the heck is the rating like this??? I gave it 100% but it deserves 1000%.

Sir Jang Hyuk, you are a great actor! My respects!

Romezki Feb 06 2017 5:21 am I almost gave this drama a miss but because it's one of the top ones in dramanice and after reading all the positive comments here, I gave it a try.. and there was no turning back! Lol i finished it within a day and i'm still having withdrawal symptoms. It's my first time watching Jang Hyuk and i'm just amazed at his acting prowess! I'm super excited for Voice under OCN to finish so I can start watchi

Fatima Feb 01 2017 1:48 am Hands down, one of the best medical drama I have ever watched!! The acting and production was flawless, and the plot was so unique and interesting, I couldn't help but finish it as soon as I possibly can. I also felt like it was more medically accurate too, since it showed collaboration between different departments and used more medically accurate terms. A must watch!!!!

Yasamin Jan 27 2017 12:18 pm Omg .this drama omg perfect??????

Ara Jan 22 2017 9:48 pm This is the best medical drama that i ever watch. I don't understand why the rating is low. Maybe korean just want to see the appearance of the actor not plot itself that become so important when we watch movie or drama. I rate It 9/10.

tablo Jan 21 2017 3:19 pm This was the most underrated drama I've ever watch!! If you're ever reading this watch this s**t. I don't understand the korean viewers snubbing this one over Doctors. I still can't get over why they cut the 2 remaining episodes which ruined this masterpiece.

ilwoos Jan 14 2017 3:23 pm i have to say it was an okay drama. the first episodes were nice to be hooked to this drama. yet u'll just end up finishing it bc it only has 14 eps i mean just finish the drama

ANA Jan 13 2017 1:57 pm this is the best drama ever !!!! i need both of them.wifi couple

Gyin Gyin Jan 03 2017 8:04 am I love this drama.Jang Hyuk is a good actor and also the actress has a sweet charming face without surgery.She's amazing because she has confidence to be anactress with her natural beauty. Why was the drama shortened? nonsense!!!

Nici Dec 27 2016 12:03 pm @eve, this is also my first time writing comments on a site hihi. I really loved the drama!!!

Eve Dec 26 2016 9:23 pm I usually never write comments on dramas but I HAD to on this one. If youre still unsure about whether to watch it or not then I suggest you to close this tab and open the first episode because you WONT regret it trust me. I had my doubts with this drama being 14 episodes but despite the cut it never lost its quality. I got so captivated by the plot that Ive lost count on how many times I cried. This drama is a masterpiece and I loved every single minute. It sure left a huge impression on me and Im sure I wont forget this one so easily. Definitely recommend it. Mad respect on the actors (especially Jang Hyuk)

jerry Dec 17 2016 8:53 am @nici. in the later episodes it will be explain the "real" thing happen to dr. lee young o

jerry Dec 13 2016 11:26 pm Not even nominated in the upcoming kbs award. tsk. popularity thing spotted. despite the age gap i find their chemistry strong

Nici Dec 07 2016 8:53 am I was confused on the intro (flashback) of episode 13 when the other doctor (the one who has wheel chair in the present) said that the results/images were changed and that Dr. Lee Gun Myung's surgery was a success. Can someone explain me that part?

TO THOSE PEOPLE WHO HAVEN'T WATCH THIS DRAMA, I SWEAR, YOU'LL LOVE IT!

But I really liked this drama despite the confusions. If I'll rate it, I'll give 10/10 because of the great actor and actresses. Even though I don't like that the male lead (Jang Hyuk) is too old for Park So Dam or vice versa at first, I learned many things in this drama plus I enjoyed it. I'm just a little disappointed that there's a little crime cases only. :( But this drama made me confuse of what course will I take on college since I'm really amazed by Dr. Lee Young Oh and Dr. Hyun Suk Joo. Actually this my first time posting a review/comments after watching many kdramas. Another good medical drama is Doctor Stranger. I consider Doctor Stranger and Beautiful Mind as the two kdramas who really influenced and super really amazed me.

The best kdramas that I watched is Beautiful Mind, Doctor Stranger, Reply 1988, Who Are You: School 2016 and She Was Pretty. I recommend everyone to watch these dramas.

Indeed, Beautiful Mind is really the best. The plot/story was amazing!!!! It is full of mysteries like the culprit on the first 3 episodes I guess? I got confused who is the real murderer and I actually suspected Dr. Hyun, Dr. Lee Youg Oh and Dr. Lee Gun Myung. Funny right?

I can't explain anymore how much I loved this drama. I just don't know why it had low ratings huhu. I hope everyone will also like and love this the way I loved it. Hihi. AJA!!!

samar Dec 04 2016 4:17 pm i watched a lot of kdramas but this was the best of all of them in my opinion, the story is unique and the acting was amazing and every episode was getting better, the ending was awesome, i felt a lot of emotions i cried and laughed a lot. just in every drama u should wait till u get into the story and like it, this drama one of a kind<3<3.

Adi Nov 29 2016 11:35 am It's not the best but the actors manage to sell it. Not only the leads but a lot of other characters did a fantastic job in making us like them... this is one of the shows you watch for the characters, not the plot. Also the concept of the show is fresh and interesting but it could have been put on screen much better. The human brain, and it's regenerative powers, is still a mystery to us and having a sociopath as the main lead was very interesting me. The script and the pacing are severely lacking. In the beginning the story is very convoluted, the traffic cop's storyline is atrocious, so much so, that once that storyline is dropped and they get out of the hospital, it almost seemed like I was looking at different show. Her storyline is never resumed. IMO the writers realised they couldn't write her well and dropped her from the main plot... she became a simple love interest that exists mainly to further the leads development (which was fascinating enough to make make me lose sight of her so I didn't mind all that much). Last and not least, there were some pretty annoying plot holes that I can't get into in detail as I don't want to spoil people. Anyway, the drama is entertaining and the chemistry between the leads is pretty good so it would be great for people who don't care all that much about details :)

x3 Nov 26 2016 6:02 pm not good. cheap production. bad script. actors had to work far below their abilities

Kdramanut Nov 26 2016 12:19 am One of the best dramas of 2016. I hope people will go back & binge watch this during the holidays. Well acted with a thought-provoking story line.

Ling ria Nov 24 2016 9:48 pm this good drama !! Park so dam so goodness actress .. i love her so much

Aiai Nov 23 2016 6:27 am One of the best drama that i have ever watched. low rating does not defined the quality of the drama. good job actor & actress & production crew . You guyss did good

gigihadead Nov 17 2016 6:31 am I've read some comments and it was compared to Doctors which i just finished watching the 20 episodes. hmmm. must be interesting eh.

elissa Nov 13 2016 8:07 am THIS DRAMA IS A 10/10 OH MY GOSH. i love everything about the drama and istg i think this is the best medical korean drama out there.

lay Nov 04 2016 5:10 am Yesss! this drama is very UNDERRATED. this drama is 10x better than DOCTORS!!! jang hyuk oppa!!!! fighting!

berceuse Nov 03 2016 5:21 am Why YAH and LJS declined the offer for the lead role? Hmmm I'm gonna try to watch this because there are almost 800 comments with positive feedbacks.

NowWal Nov 01 2016 10:19 pm I dont why I always hooked up in drama with low ratings. I always find underated drama had dramatic n good plot compared to drama with high ratings. Am i weird?

lala Nov 01 2016 2:37 am daeback! i just finished watching this drama and its worth it. u wont appreciate it that much if u compared it to doctors but this one has its own unique story. must watch series :)

Elisa Oct 31 2016 11:00 pm I love this drama !!!!

Syeda Tanzila Reza Oct 23 2016 12:36 pm It's awesome.. A masterpiece. The story of this drama series is so good. I don't know why this amazing drama series should pack up so hurrily due to bad rating!!

Rainbow1997 Oct 12 2016 6:06 am Jang hyuk is a good acting! Watched this drama because of him! ❤️

Rara Oct 12 2016 5:20 am im just sad that this drama didn't get nominated at Korea Drama Awards. at least the writer of this drama did get nominated, but sadly, not won the award

junex Oct 11 2016 10:37 pm one of the best medical drama ever! I have high respect for Jang Hyuk for his excellent acting. I can't imagine other actor playing dr. lee. For me this drama is far beautiful than Doctors!

Beatrix Oct 09 2016 12:14 pm I'm currently watching episode 5, but i really don't find this drama so great as you say...the police girl is really stupid, then It's nonsense that after so many death in the hospital there isn't a proper investigation...only Lee Young-O is ok.

I keep on watching, but I don't like it very much...

skyline Oct 08 2016 2:35 pm this drama is so underrated i'm so mad! I enjoyed watching it

Sori Y Oct 04 2016 4:09 pm This drama was really good!!! I loved the story line because it was different. I was sad that it Got cut off when it was such a good drama. Jang hyuk was an amazing actor and so was his dad! Regardless of ratings, it was a good drama!

ka rin ah Oct 02 2016 8:39 pm this drama is so underrated, i love jang hyuk's acting.. thanks god ah in and jong suk decline, i'm not sure they can deliver the character like jang hyuk did.

park so dam's act quite boring at first, but then it's getting interested.

really sad this drama shortened by two episodes. this drama doesn't have eye candy actor or actress like the doctor, but i love this drama due its story line. <3

don't be sad, janghyuk and so dam.. you both get my love hwaiting!

jerry Sep 28 2016 6:51 am omg. i was sad when this drama don't hae nomination for the APAN awards :(. jang hyuk deserve daesang there :(. park so dam also best new actress not in the CAT4N

shin Sep 21 2016 4:57 pm jang hyuk is daeeeeeeeeeeeeeebak in this drama

Yuanita Sep 21 2016 9:51 am Very recommended !! Jang hyuk was so great!

shin Sep 21 2016 5:43 am this show is so amazing!!!

Guidance Sep 21 2016 1:07 am Love this drama,, especially the power rangers team..

beansprout Sep 07 2016 9:47 pm Im happy that Lee Jong Suk declined this drama coz Jang Hyuk really nailed this! :) Im happy... The age of Dr. Lee YO was the best for this role.. I dont think it will suit to younger ones. Both leads gave a good chemistry. Maybe for the first few episodes it didnt show but in the end you will realized that they were the right person for the characters. :)

Jelli Sep 07 2016 8:40 pm I love this drama better than Doctors. Why amazing drama get low rating?

smileyme Sep 04 2016 9:35 pm Amazing drama...stellar acting by Jang Hyuk with great storyline , cinematography, OST by Bernard Park not so much romance but it is satisfied yeah very recommended

beansprout Sep 03 2016 8:53 am I'm crying bcoz I appreciate this drama SO MUCH... Great story, awesome acting especially Doctor Lee Young Oh, realistic medical situation,wonderful OST you name it.. A beautiful mind indeed.. Don't hesitate to watch this coz it's worth to watch.. At first I'm an addict with a romcom kdrama but I started to shift to this kind of story. I understand now how the story and plot was so important. At first I just want a happy ending kdrama coz im a little bit a cry lady but now I just want drama that will stuck in my mind and heart whether it has a happy ending or not. Nevertheless don't hesitate because it sooo UNDERRATED. trust me.. I will watch this again..

And now Im a fan of Jang Hyuk coz he touches my heart.. That's a sign of a good acting.. Keep it up.. I will watch your other drama.. :) cheers!!

consuelo Sep 03 2016 5:23 am Beautiful mind; beautiful drama series. I watched it in less than 24hrs. korean drama/movies are realistic. Actorsdid their role well.

jerry Aug 30 2016 8:42 am urgh missing already this drama. one of the best drama ive seen so far in 2016

Yumi Aug 30 2016 6:23 am I love the story. It's really interesting. Our frontal lobe may interested to this story :D

Picca Aug 30 2016 4:51 am I wish Jang Hyuk got paired with actress like Jang Nara (not too far age gap) so the love story would be more enjoyable. :)

Picca Aug 30 2016 4:44 am I Think the story about the unique and genius doctor is good. But I don't think the actress didn't match with the actor (Jang Hyuk) , he's too mature for her, which make the love line between them seems so awkward. The age gap between them was too far, which makes me think that she supposed to be cast as the main character daufhter

NingPeng Aug 27 2016 9:30 pm Very...very good drama !!!!

THAI.fan Aug 26 2016 4:34 am I am so disappointed to seen only 14 episodes.... So beautiful serie that i have ever seen...

Jaesell Aug 24 2016 6:18 am How can this drama be underrated when it's so beautiful! Everything is superb, the actors portrayed it well. The ending was a bit rush though. Nevertheless, It will still be my fave drama, more than KMHM :)

prettysup Aug 23 2016 7:34 pm @lalala No this is not a scary drama, you can watch it at night. It is a heart-warming and touching drama.

Sheng Aug 22 2016 6:06 am The only downside of this drama is the character of So Dam. It didn't leave a good impression to the viewers on the first part of the series. They should haven't given her a police character which is too unrealistic for her to portray.

sillyyandfully Aug 22 2016 4:26 am dont know why it have not even got any rank over top 20 ... it should got some reasons.. bad air timing,, or whateverelse...here to tell you it got more than enough for me to watch this .. it got marvellious story/plot , acting and actors were carefully selected and played .. ,it got a punch line ost... and it ends in here ..

Common Aug 21 2016 9:50 pm it ended weeks ago, but i can't move on from this drama. The best drama I ever watched. Now I'm watching park so dam new drama, and others drama. but there's no single drama can erase my feeling about this drama. what should I do? I still very sad and disappointed toward kbs.

lalala Aug 21 2016 3:57 am i'm planning to watch this but... is there scary scene? because i always watch dramas at night...

nathnath Aug 19 2016 7:30 pm very good drama... best story and best actor!! i'm sad when i know this drama was shortened to 14 episodes bcse low rating T^T.. this is the best drama about medical... i think better than Doctors.. this is one of the best kdramas i've ever watched.

Pammo Aug 18 2016 8:24 am Just finished watching all the episodes in 2 days. It was riveting, engaging and one of the best dramas in 2016. I rated it 100% because the acting, storyline, direction and editing were always on point. I cried so much I had to put a box of tissues next to meet to go to the next episode and next episode. Jang Hyuk is one of the best Korean actors and this part fit him like a glove. THis is a drama you should not miss. Light on romance but entertaining. Was so upset it ended -- I needed about 10 more episodes and wish they consider doing a second season.

Abeer Aug 18 2016 4:06 am This drama was the best Korean drama I have ever seen and it encouraged me to continue studying to become a doctor. I hope this drama get a lot of awards. Jang Hyuk saranghaeyo. Beautiful Mind FIGHTING . see my Instagram @2wins_4ever to see a piano cover of Bernard Park Dirt and more other Korean dramas.

sivani lloyd Aug 17 2016 1:55 am I was so sorry that the netizens did not take the time to appreciate this fine drama. The story line and the acting were both compelling, and I truly regret not being able to see it as the 16 episodes it was originally designed for. If you haven't seen it yet, catch it when you are in the mood for quality programing and real drama.

TINU Aug 16 2016 8:34 am awesome drama i can't believe it got low ratings love doctor lee loved him in fated to love you too lovely voice crazy laughter I want more dramas from him

A.R.T Aug 15 2016 5:37 am Its been 2 weeks since BM has finally ended. And ive been binge-watching this show ever since. I really miss LYO so much it hurts, and his deep voice ;(( this show is one of my all time favs alongside My Name is Kim Sam Soon, Reply series, The Princess' Man, Master's Sun, Signal, and Dear My Friends

Chaedil Aug 15 2016 5:04 am I would watch this over doctors any day. The story is more original and more captivating, I felt it was really cut short but I was delighted to watch the MC to have such character development. Personally this is one of the few top notched medical dramas we need like how I felt when I watched good doctor and Its okay Its love.

Krysa Aug 15 2016 4:39 am Was this role written for Jang Hyuk? It suits him so much! Very good drama with nice story and good actors. I like Kim Hyung-Kyu too and hope to see him more and more. Underrated very good drama.

gouma Aug 14 2016 5:37 am i just watched this drama.. its really good story..

Chandra Aug 13 2016 2:22 pm Best story and best actor involved... increcible.

pam Aug 13 2016 7:50 am too bad this drama is ridiculously underrated. has talented cast and good story line. i watch doctors too but this drama has more context and interesting plot twists. a dramas this good and has so much potential doesnt really come often. even though it was shortened, i still think this is one of the best kdramas ive ever watched.kudos to the whole team behind this.

Kdrama Queen Aug 13 2016 2:30 am one of the best kdrama in 2016..!

Diane Aikman Aug 12 2016 10:06 pm I enjoyed every minute of it. Its one of the best dramas I have a watched. Just a pity its finish already.

Tian Aug 12 2016 1:36 am Only one Ost.But very touching Beautiful Mind is the best Drama ever.Love all cast specially Gye Jin Sung Brother ^_^

Stephanie Aug 11 2016 8:51 pm To bad the series was shortened, In my opinion, this is one of the best dramas to be released in 2016 and I rated it a 100%. I can't believe it got low ratings, but ratings don't mean everything. This is one drama I will watch over again and highly recommend to anyone.

sophiagarcia Aug 11 2016 8:39 pm thank you for this wonderful drama i have been at since episode 1. this has all the element of a good drama, entertainment, suspense, drama, ticklish romance ( I so love their "your breathing is now okay" kiss and the holding hands, simple yet cute and romantic ) though the ending looked like it was rushed. I thought Dr Shin her was alive, was just been put to a temporary "lifeless state" and was sent to her family to live privately. regardless of ratings, this is one unforgettable drama : good story, excellent acting esp JH, fast and exciting story development, humurous, nice state of the art hospital setting, clean, refreshing and a lot more. looking forward to another JH starrer.

Bhebs Aug 11 2016 10:46 am the drama was indeed entertaining. Love the cast, the plot , the phasing. Its not boring actually. The lead star performed very well. Hope he will Be having more dramas jn the futre. I AM A BIG FUN.

prettysup Aug 10 2016 8:29 pm Don't be deceived by the ratings - this drama is incredibly good! Touching story, wonderful directing, stellar acting and beautiful music.. highly recommended !!

zel Aug 10 2016 7:08 pm NR? Whatever! For me, this drama is great! Jang Hyuk is a very good actor.

Nouf Aug 10 2016 3:56 pm Jang huyk is greatest and intelligent actor I love you and this drama is amazing and I want tell the staff of beautiful mind series the rating is not important and countinued the sucess

JAC Aug 10 2016 8:59 am I viewed ep 14 last night and was totally entertain by the lead actors and cast. Love the must and overall concept to help someone who transform himself into a caring human being and Doctor. Wish that the two lead actors will receive best acting awards for 2016. Thank you KBS.

catherine Aug 10 2016 8:26 am i really love it. its addicting

lima5 Aug 10 2016 3:32 am This drama was amaaaaaaaaazing from the start till the end ...just epic ....the rating doesnt mean anything

DiJay Aug 09 2016 6:02 pm Despite the ratings, I still watched it because of the reviews that I read here. Definitely did not disappoint me. This drama is so underrated. Can't believe that people in Korea don't appreciate this kind of drama. Got hooked on the 1st episode and I can't stop watching it and finished it in a day. Jang Hyuk's acting was superb!. Thanks to the writer for this amazing drama. This would be my 2nd favorite psychological drama next to Kill Me, Heal Me.

LordMMX Aug 09 2016 4:30 pm this drama deserved more than just 14 episodes. it deserves even more than leaving it with 16 episodes. it deserved at least 50 episodes.

Inlovewithgd Aug 09 2016 9:18 am It's so sad how something over in Korea can have low tv ratings but be well received internationally. Was due to the fact that it aired at the same time with other popular dramas?

Common Aug 09 2016 4:00 am I'm glad many people appreciate this great story.

@blu the theme title is Dirt by Bernard Park, and a song by Eun Ha Seo.

@A.B. Young O experienced verbal and emotional abuse from his father. he lack on empathize others feeling because of the way his father raised him.

shane Aug 08 2016 10:43 am This drama so good for me untill episode 12 when lee young oh blame lee gyun myung of all that happen to him.

minam Aug 08 2016 8:37 am WHAT??!??!?!?! i can't believe this got cancelled goddamnit i actually loved this drama like it was one of the best ones i've seen i got way too emotionally attached to the characters wtf they can't just end it there T_T

M. A. Kirby Aug 08 2016 1:46 am I can't believe this drama was shortened because of ratings. I thought it was one of the best ones that I have ever seen.

blu Aug 07 2016 8:36 pm A beautiful story played by wonderful actors.anyways,who sings the theme song and what is the title?

lemoes Aug 07 2016 8:35 am honestly jang hyuk acting was top noch and superb (claps) , am dissapointed coz alot will think it is a waste to wastch this , i've never been dissapointed with any work of jang hyuk since chuno , seriously he's amazing ,, and i can get why lee jon suk declined , he did Doctor stranger which was a bit similar with more political n romance , still the Drama is worth it watch it n u won't regret a single episode

tony Aug 06 2016 8:37 pm This was a very interesting and complex story. It is too bad that most people did not seem to get it Korea is a very conservative country and the problem with a empathy,a lack of would not be comprehensable to them. The country that considers it a scandal when idols date has a real problem. The acting and story content was superb, As a little boy, he needed the operation because it was too difficult to do. Hiwever the operation was a success. the abuse came from wanting teach him to show emotion when he did not have the capacity to really show empathy. He could not feel how other felt. Well that is enough, It was a tremendously great story with excellent acting . Sorry most of you did not get it.

Sri Rahayu Aug 06 2016 7:27 pm This movie is great, different from other medical movie. I could'nt understand. Why did over at 14'th episode. Why don't you make it longer? This movie has a good story, actor and actrees that realy make it so good. I learn much about medical from that. I recomand this movie .....

AB Aug 06 2016 7:13 pm @AB emotional abuse

A.B. Aug 06 2016 12:03 pm In case anyone has not finished the drama, SPOILER ALERT! cause I have a question for those who have finished it.

Scroll down for question. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - What was the abuse that Lee Young-Oh suffered from his father? I got confused. So Young-Oh didn't have an injury necessary for the operation? Stupid question, but seriously, I don't really understand what happened.

fafafaaah Aug 06 2016 4:52 am Its an amazing drama. Its disappointed that's this drama aint get so much attention through the rating. But indeed, i recommend this drama for it's story. Im curious how it would be if the production team didn't cut the episode. Well, thank you for this drama!! I've leant a lot abt medicine ;)

prettysup Aug 06 2016 1:19 am Beautiful drama - all the way from beginning to the end.. Fantastic !

Avella Danae Aug 05 2016 11:19 pm Ah, I will miss this one! One of my favs for this season!!!! Fascinating story, nail-biting excitement, with a surprisingly positive and believable resolution. In my opinion, amazingly moving acting by leads and supporting actors, especially by Jang Hyuk and Ah Jae-Suk.

Ivy Cherry Aug 05 2016 8:57 pm I recommend this drama. Don't be fool by the low ratings. It's low because the time slot is same as Park Shin Hye's "Doctors". Watch this drama, you'll never regret it.

Boyanx Aug 05 2016 8:33 pm The reason why I watched this drama is the power ranger doctors... The give the commical vibe to this drama.. And also dr.yang and nurse jang... And if the seven of them together in one frame, its all complete commical....

yong Aug 05 2016 8:09 pm @Grace The actor which played Jin Sung's brother is Jo Byeong-Gyu

Malditang Bugay Aug 05 2016 11:43 am I really liked the concept of a medical mystery. As it really adds another layer to what may be a typical medical show. The OST suited the mood of each scene wonderfully. Overall this was a very interesting drama. The concept really drew me in. One thing that I really enjoyed about this show was that it was never predictable.

Roger Aug 05 2016 10:35 am Congratulations to the 5 Eagle Brothers! Added comic relief to the show.

tiana Aug 05 2016 7:30 am One of the best!! Daebak!! Please watch!! Don't get bored!

Ehii Peace Aug 04 2016 11:41 pm Awesome! 100% RT from me ;) Lee Young oh. Daebak! ♥♥♥

Rara Aug 04 2016 10:27 pm Doctor Lee Young Oh will always be my favorite character of all time! Jang Hyuk really did a great performance portraying the cold hearted genius doctor. I do hope he gets any awards he deserves for his stellar acting. Now im off to rewatching the whole drama. BM will remain one of my 2016 favs!!

Grace Aug 04 2016 6:50 pm Btw,can someone tell me who played Gye Jin Sang brother?? He look familiar hahha

Grace Aug 04 2016 6:49 pm This drama is a real MASTERPIECE! The story,the cast, the crew,the set and the ost are great and I love it very much. Too bad We cant see the origial story due to shortened episode:'((( Loveee this drama so much. At least this drama should get award this year!:) Proud that I can see the beautiful drama like this in the middle of, sorry to say, overrated drama. Good job cast!

prettysup Aug 04 2016 6:21 pm Don't be deceived by the low ratings, this drama is seriously so good and addictive that you won't want to stop once you start watching!

Maggie Aug 04 2016 12:49 am I loved this drama so much, Jang Hyuk was amazing and cried a lot. I also really loved the Power Rangers!

But one question, does anyone the instrumental soundtrack they played? It was a mix of piano and the cello. It was so beautiful I really want to find it.

Deborah Boomer Aug 03 2016 9:45 pm Wonderful drama!! I watched the last episode today feeling sad, but privileged, to have had the opportunity to immerse myself in this series. The storyline, the actors( most especially Jang Hyuk, not to disparage the others, but he is amazing!), the music, direction...absolutely the whole production, crazy good! I am sorry for the shortened episodes, but found myself smiling at the well done ending!!

shanaliez Aug 03 2016 9:34 pm Beautiful mind is a really great drama. So sad that it was cut short to 14 episodes.. so underrated. I was looking forward to 16 episodes! oh my! Jang Hyuk is such a talented actor. And kudos to Park So Dam, too. good chemistry. good portrayal. good concept. I could go on for praise... can it have a part 2?!? I recommend watching Beautiful Mind. Thank you KBS, it is such a good watch. Hoping for more beautiful creations. :-)

Lei Aug 03 2016 8:14 pm Why did they cut it short? Love it. Must see. Highly recommended.

Grace Aug 03 2016 7:51 pm As much as I loved it, I need KBS to please release the soundtrack, am dying here for that song

Helomekinvegas Aug 03 2016 6:42 pm What!!!!!!! Final episode??!!?? We watched this drama from the beginning. Love the characters. Great cast. What's up with the ratings....? I'm not one to follow the lemmings watching the other medical drama. Thanks KBS2 for trying.....Aaishh!

kimberlyluk Aug 03 2016 6:02 pm its such a pity that this drama was cut short :( i really enjoyed every episode of this drama! definitely recommended to watch

Memestar Aug 03 2016 4:58 pm Watching this drama has made me feel some type of way. I can't genuinely describe it but I know it has impacted me positively. I love this drama so much. Every week I was begging for more and more. As each week went by they kept delivering a better episode. Jang Hyuk's acting was very impressing throughout the whole drama. Overall I wish this drama had more episodes but all good things must come to an end. I genuinely recommend this drama it was really good and quite touching.

Giannina Aug 03 2016 4:36 pm Jang Hyuk is an excellent actor, but in this drama he left me SPECHLESS. Such a great acting..i really think he was the only actor who can play this role.. he deserves MORE than the "ratings" in Korea shows. Great line story. Unic. Must see!!

Nocturnalux Aug 03 2016 4:25 pm It's a shame that this series was cut short. I am not a huge fan of romance as it is but I really enjoyed the social commentary on the challenges faced by the very sick in Korea. In particular, the ruthless way the series approached the vulnerable position of the poor who cannot afford proper healthcare was a few notches above the typical sappy love story.

Sadly, I am afraid that it is precisely because this drama is much more sober and realistic (at least usually) than the norm that sealed its fate with the public. If instead of exploring human emotion in all its depth, from the very heights to the lowest of lows, it had settled for trite romance laced with shallow angst, I suspect the ratings would have been much higher.

Sakura Aug 03 2016 12:14 pm Love this drama so much. I dont care with the rating at Korea. Especialy when now everyone give their full atention at drama "doctor" which lead by park Shin Hye. Yeah, she is beautiful. But our heroin is also cute. I think this drama will get many fan in the future around the world. So, kbs will regret because of the episode reduction. I am so sad when know is cut from 16 ep and become 14 ep only. However i try to heal my emotion with this drama ost. I'm enjoy this ost very much.

summer Aug 03 2016 12:06 pm Just finished watching the last episode.... My God, this drama is really good... Why in south korea their viewers is less than the others, so sad.. But I really love all the episodes, since the 1st until the last episode.. Honestly, the story in 1st & 2nd episode are too serious, and there's no romantic scenes between the lead character ( which is most of people whom enjoyed korean dramas love it, hhe ) I think that's the reason a few people do not stay watching all the episodes.. in my opinion even though some ppl dont love this drama as much as I do, this drama is the best and deserve big appreciation from all aspects, the actors and actress also the storyline are perfect.. When the story almost end it becomes more good, and really touching.. It's not about romantic story whom we can find in every k-dramas, but it's all about humanity... How we love and cherish each other, the relationship between a father and son, wife and husband, doctors and their patient.. There's so many things I can't described only with words about this drama, I may overreacted about this but it's true hehehe.. In the end, i'm glad the ending of this drama perfectly good, and not disappointed... I don't have any regrets after watching this drama, you guys should add this drama to your watching list.. ^^

Chaedil Aug 03 2016 9:08 am I'm actually sad it ended so soon, much to that, it wasn't appreciated the way it should have been. Personally between doctors and this one, i would stick with this story. The actors and producers did well even with the episode reduction.

NANCE Aug 03 2016 8:16 am I just watched the last episode here i the Philippines and I would say this drama is worth watching. The last episode is full of mixed emotion, drama, comedy, and romance. I don't care what's the ratings there in Korea, as long a I've watch a very good drama. Kudos to the entire casts and production.

Wanderer Aug 03 2016 7:22 am By far one of the Brilliant dramas i have seen yet !!! Excellent job! I'm thankful to the producer, actors and the writer for giving the audience such a wonderful gift. even tough it is not well recieved by the local audience, but the international audience truly appreciate the worth of the drama. Every single scene is well thought and well organised. Every single chapter unfolds unexpected twists and portrays the different colour of human emotions. i was spell bound by Lee Young Oh (Jang Hyuk), who shares his thought of his love, Gye Jin Sung and it truly touched my heart. every single line he delivered touch my heart. its a form of Art which you can enjoy watching every single time. i SALUTE the crew for their effort. Thank you all

BB Tan Aug 03 2016 7:21 am Disappointed that it had ended due to the so call poor rating Are we watching drama because of the actors or actresses or the story Love this drama so much but it was a rush in the end

Ozzy Aug 03 2016 7:07 am With lack of empathy, he shows us that emotion is gained through experience. He knows that deep inside him, the emotion is about to explode but he doesn't know how to express all of it. He feels the anger, the love, but he doesn't know it. Then comes the lady who can interpret what he feels. I think this lady is there for his emotional extension. I love the plot, I love the leads, and I don't know why they cut'em to only 14. I do enjoy this drama a lot.

Roger Aug 03 2016 6:35 am Quite a different role for Kim Hyung-Kyu(Dr. Yang) from Mantis, the cold blooded killer in the show Last. Nice to see he can play a comedic role.

Sara Aug 03 2016 6:28 am I dont even dare to watch the final episode yet. guess im not ready yet to accept the reality that this greatest kdrama ever (for me) was ended. I cant accept itt!!!!! Huwwaaaa!!!!! Id rather to watch it for 100+ more episode or even for the rest of my life. Thats how much i lllloooove this drama veryveryveryvery much!! Thank u so much kbs !

TeaLea Aug 03 2016 6:22 am This was a wonderfully crafted show and the Lee Young Oh was portrayed so believably by Jang Hyuk! Excellent chemistry between he and Gye Jin-Sung as she acted as his "wi-fi" so that he could learn how to feel and express his emotions. A mature intelligent storyline that should not have been cut nor receive such poor ratings! One of the best shows ever even with the shortened episodes...great acting and delivery by the cast. So glad he was made free to love and move forward with Park So Dam! Shame on those who chose to drastically end this and on the viewers who didn't give the show a chance...

Sheela Aug 03 2016 5:21 am I don't care the rating at all. For me, Jang Hyuk and Park So Dam brought the two main characters alive and entertained us throughout the 14 episodes. So do the rest of the cast who made laugh, cry, worried and happy at the same time. I really enjoyed watching from the beginning to the end.

whitewolf Aug 03 2016 4:59 am @HSKL are we watching the same drama? I just can't believe that you said that it was not a hit because of poor directing and script! I'm not really sure what you warched is the same drama others are giving positive feedback especially on the plot, character development and it's narration. Seriously, you need to recheck your definition of good directing and script. You even said that Young-O wasn't able to convey the emotions for viewers to sympathize with him, he's supposed to be "emotionless" for goodness sake yet he was able to connect with just his eyes, words and body language. You even said Jin-Sung has no "authoritative" look or feel as a police officer, she's on traffic duty man! a rookie officer and female. We know in S. Korea it is still a prevalent man's world so they take female officers less seriously. And that was at the beginning, she grew in her character which should all lead characters be and not be one-dimensional. I just don't agree with what you said but then again, everyone's entitled to their own opinions.

Chello Aug 03 2016 4:54 am Love it so much!. i love Jung Hyuk

ilovew Aug 03 2016 4:39 am i really loved this drama. That the main lead didn't miraculously become normal and empathetic at the end but was moving forward knowing his limitations made this a really great ending for this super wonderful drama. thanks to the entire team and cast for making something this good even two episodes short.

whitewolf Aug 03 2016 4:35 am Beautiful Mind daebak!!! The last episode is packed with a lot of emotions and lessons in life. First is being able to forgive others who may have wronged you. Young-O set himself free by forgiving his father. Second, have the courage to take responsibility for the results of your actions/decisions. It may be difficult to do at first but when you do it brings you peace and chance to make up for those mistakes. Third, there are no risks not worth taking especially if it's for someone you care and love. This brings me to what Young-O told Jin-Sung:

Please don't forget, every breath you take please remember how I feel about you and what you mean to me.

He donated his other lung because she means a lot to him despite the risks associated with the operation. He also mentioned that he may not change and may be difficult to understand or deal with but what's important for him is to have her by his side. Quite poetic isn't it for someone who can not empathize or feel emotions? Lastly, I really like the humor put in by the Power Rangers doctors ad Dr. Yang, they make things light even though life and work in the hospital is toxic. Great job team Beautiful Mind!

Danica Aug 03 2016 3:11 am omg no! why should they cut it? it really was a nice drama storyline. it should be given a chance to finish their last 2 episodes.

supersnazzy Aug 03 2016 2:52 am A very well scripted drama even though they have to shorten the episode+good chemistry between the male and female lead+ well scripted drama from the beginning till the end+scene stealer from the "Power Rangers" are the reason why everyone should watch this drama. Give it a chance tho you will totally addicted.

japag Aug 03 2016 2:04 am did not regret to continue this drama.worth watching totally a masterpiece for me no joke. lots of good actors and main characters chemistry despite of age gap

from ph

val Aug 03 2016 1:49 am really disappointed episode # shortened-this drama so much better than Monster which is scheduled for 50 episodes & so boring-

lisamax Aug 03 2016 1:24 am Honestly said, i'm pretty sad when the i know abt the eps reduction. However, all the cast, characters did really well (AWESOME CAST EVER!). I love the storyline, the plot, the characters both main & supporting characters. This drama explore the ethical sides of doctors, the ability of doctors to feel wht their patients feel and not only treating patients by giving medication or treatment. Its almost perfectly shows the REALITY OF DOCTORS. This drama have a very lighy romance but it felt really meaningful. Both Dr Lee and Gye Jin Sung don't really date a lot in this drama (not a lot of romance scene) but their love feel so sincere. ❤️

I gonna miss Dr Lee Young Oh with his black shades. I gonna miss Gye Jin Sung, the girl who can see pass through Dr Lee. I also gonna miss all the funny Power Rangers and Dr Yang.

Everything abt this drama is PERFECT and totally different with typical romance cheesy scene that can be found in other Korean drama. Kinda sad with the ratings tho as this is such a GREAT DRAMA!

Common Aug 03 2016 12:29 am So it's the end of our wonderful journey. I'm crying it really end. I can imagine that they will make a better ending if they didn't cut the episode of.

But thanks to drama crew and casts, whoever make this GREAT drama for us. Thank you very much. Especially write nim, dont get disappointed and get down by this. PLEASE, just stay with your writing style. I want to see your next intellectual project soon.

Salma Aug 02 2016 11:39 pm Very good actor, actress, senario, dialogue , events Every thing is as a magic Jang hyug , I loved you in this character Thank you for your good work

Gillian Aug 02 2016 11:03 pm U could see how they rushed to wrap up things in the last episode. Gosh. I don't understand why their viewership was Low in the first place. What was happening?

Michan Aug 02 2016 10:38 pm 14 episode isn't enough for this good drama.. i cried when drama ends up too early T__T.... Wish Jang Hyuk got an excellent drama award, he really deserve it!

mclouds Aug 02 2016 10:08 pm How could this not be in the top 20! This drama has an interesting plot and its casts are great at delivering their role!

MilWon Aug 02 2016 8:22 pm apart from lee young o, jinsung, suk joo and dr lee gunmyeong, i will terribly miss the gossipping doctors a.k.a power rangers + dr yang in this drama. they are always cute and funny to see. i always love to see them on screen. Beautiful Mind jjang! not only the lead actors shine, but all the supporting and side actors are shining brightly too!

Migthy Thor Aug 02 2016 7:56 pm I would like to quote HELL NO for such an impressive opinion "Damn it! why is it soooo perfect! it all feels natural and doesnt look forced at all. Even the kiss scene, they both are hesitant and kinda blushing which shows how real it is. They really tried their best to lighten the mood and add comedy cuz of reduction of epis, loved the humor and the power ranger theme! Hohoho, his clothes changed too as we expected!

Its a perfect drama for everybody and an awesome ride with twists and turns. Amazing ending of an insanely good drama with solid plot and lively characters. But the best thing about this drama is that it progressed logically unlike other korean drama this felt believable and real. A beautifully crafted sweet ending, wrapping up everything and saying goodbye to us in an epic way. Will miss this and am waiting for more series like this in future."

Beanie Aug 02 2016 7:06 pm I can't believe this drama hv low rating this awesome

rediet Aug 02 2016 5:52 pm chincha!! wae wae it was the best drama I ever watched and it has to end like this T_T plus they had to shorten it by 2 episodes really not fair I want to see more and Dr Lee yeoung is the best ♥♥♥

algorithms06 Aug 02 2016 5:36 pm Beautiful Mind is a great drama. Jang Hyuk is an amazing actor. I don't know why the ratings are low...sad.

EL Varias Aug 02 2016 3:44 pm why does it have such low ratings? This drama is so good (for me) and the actors are so good at playing their characters. Too sad that it's over. Even my mom and aunt was hooked.

Elisabet Aug 02 2016 2:49 pm The story of this drama is soooo good. I don't get it why people in Korea judged by appearance. Michosooo? I really did enjoy watching this drama. It's truly disappointed that it was over

Hadjer ALGERIA Aug 02 2016 1:20 pm i adore this drama! i love it! i enjoyed watching every second of it ... i feel sad because it has low ratings :/ it deserves to be watched,i wish they didn't reduce it to 14 episodes :'( great drama and great story and caracters .... oppa jang hyuk fighting!! . A FAN FROM ALGERIA

MEITJE61 Aug 02 2016 1:09 pm This is a Perfect & Great drama. We can learning many things as a person that show in every episodes. Thank you for all of the peoples that made this drama. Best greeting for Jang Hyuk. You are the best.

Lee Aug 02 2016 12:57 pm I really can not understand how this drama had low ratings. For me this is was the best K drama I have seen so far. It was not the clasic same old "syrup sweet" story. It was real, with the ugly truth hitting you in the face, with hopes, pains, hate and love all together, making my heart go up and down in each episode. It is a drama about real life, real things, real people and real feelings. And Mr. Jang Hyunk was so intense. Best Korean actor. He convinced me for good. Well done.

aliya Aug 02 2016 12:45 pm I am really shocked this drama getting over than its stipulated time.One drama which I looked forward to on dreary Mondays after game of thrones got over.The actors in this drama have done such an amazing job,no over the top drama , exceptional dialogues and more towards being real. I hope Korean industry starts churning out such intelligent dramas too for surely they are being followed worldwide. P.S:I hope I am not the only one who started feeling empathetic towards the male lead character,that actor surely nailed the character fully.

                                                      -A dejected Indian fan

Dara Aug 02 2016 10:55 am Oh, wow, didn't know that it got low raitings. I thought it was a really good drama and well played, didn't see that coming. And now they cut it, that is really too bad. Maybe Korea was just not ready for that.

diury Aug 02 2016 10:18 am Agree..This drama script is too intelectual for korean viewers..they prefer easy going plot n lovey dovey artist. The script too natural and far away from usual kdrama with add some entertaining gimmicks scenes. The same crisis also did by jackpot jks dramas writernim. They wrote some serious plot. The materials are good. Specially the Actors. But to approach korean audience market which is >50% are middle age woman with kind this plot is too difficult. This is more favourable for international viewers.. i think.

somehow..the ending is beautiful. I love it. I am glad the writernim satisfied us with a happy ending. I want to see janghyuk and park so dam next project. Specailly jang hyuk he is still sexy in his midlle age ^^

bettyful Aug 02 2016 10:06 am i'm so sad, beautiful mind ended earlier, i can't move on....huhuhu.... i want more episode pls.... i will miss jang hyuk..... huhuhu...

JAC Aug 02 2016 9:01 am I will need to watch beautiiful mind today ep 14 and hope that KBS understands what a great show it was on tv. Will miss it considering how many terrible actors actresses there are playing in dramas today such as The Unusual Family unbelievable bad.

HS KL Aug 02 2016 8:39 am The story line has a lot of potential to be a hit drama, unfortunately it did not happen. In my opinion it was because of the poor script and directing. Lee Young Oh did not show well enough the deep conflict he should be facing to gain the sympathy of the audience. It should be that he was sincerely doing things that he thought was good but the people around him were hurt by his actions and he couldn't understand what he did wrong and was disturbed by it. Gye Jin Sung was not convincing as a police officer. She doesn't have the authority of a police officer and that she was too young looking. I like her, she's beautiful and I would watch her other dramas. The best, to me, was the father, Lee Gun Myung & the second lead, Hyun Suk Joo.

chandmander Aug 02 2016 8:36 am it has a fantastic storyline, in depth medical info, good actors, definitely worth to watch! the lead actor brought out the character of Dr Lee Young O very well! the emotions, the comedy side of things, etc... Perfect!

Scarlet Aug 02 2016 8:19 am The effect of episodes cutting is really apparent from ep 11,12,13. You can feel that it was rush and there are many scenes were cut out. Whenever i watch it, i just can let out a sigh of dissapointment for i know they can do much better than what we seen. I am really mad with kbs for such selfish decision. But then i still want to applaud the production team for they can.still give us a beautiful scene,beautiful topic as well as touching dialogue. It is still mesmerizing. If only it is given enough time....sigh....

Thank you lee young o and all beautiful mind casts/productions for allowing us to participate on your journey as a doctor, patient and most important, as human being.

Jessi Aug 02 2016 8:07 am Worth to watch. Like seriously, the best drama ever! People who doesn't watch this are stuuuuupid :p

Nancy Aug 02 2016 8:04 am It's a beautiful drama and I'm touched on the 13 ep. Ratings doesn't matter.aslong as it's a nice drama.

odette Aug 02 2016 8:03 am This drama is great. Not the ordinary run of the mill plot. Jang Hyuk is really a great actor!

She Aug 02 2016 7:34 am This drama is superb. better than other mushy love story. It's entertaining as well as informative. why does it have to end so soon?

whitewolf Aug 02 2016 5:48 am Young-O donates his other lung to Jin-Sung is quite romantic & selfless. Yes, a person can live w/ just one lung and does not impair his abilities just like a normal person. I hope the surgery goes well and a piece of Young-O will always be w/ Jin-Sung. Only 1 episode left but I'm sure it's packed w/ a lot of emotions, twists & lessons in life. Beautiful Mind is definitely one of the dramas that will leave a lasting mark on its viewers.

japag Aug 02 2016 3:01 am omg epi 13 anticipating for last episode <3_<3 overload 'kilig' epi 13 kill me aigoo! by BM hello CATFN park so dam new fan here from philippines

Sam Aug 02 2016 12:58 am Hi, I am from India and I am big fan of Korean dramas... BM is the master piece....I love this dtam.. JH is great actor and he has done fabulous job in this...I really respect and love him...he has taken such challenge and played his role with almost sincerity...I will miss this drama...

Wanderer Aug 02 2016 12:30 am Beautiful Mind is Truly worth to watch. The Title itself is well thought and absolutely goes with the plot. The story line is amazing and it amuses me that how every single chapter surprises you with different twists. if I could get the chance, I would've definitely congratulated the writer, actors personally. You wont see such a well constructed drama these days. They remained true to the title and the drama has brilliantly portrayed different colours of human emotions. They did a brilliant job by nurturing each of the scene. It itself is a work of art and I'm a huge fan it. yes, its disappointing that this drama is not getting the proper rating the way this should have, but I'm thankful that i got the chance to see and relate my emotions with each of the characters. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

kaaaaay Aug 02 2016 12:06 am Such a wonderful drama. Cant believe that it will end soon.

Dindon Aug 02 2016 12:06 am What a great drama..Love It..rate 10/10

Jeana Montes Aug 01 2016 11:42 pm One of the best dramas! How come the ratings are so low? This show is way better than Doctor crush! So sad there's only one episode left!

JAC Aug 01 2016 11:24 pm Thank so much for the great performance. Love Love Love Hope to see you win many awards in 2016.

Kdrama Addict Aug 01 2016 9:41 pm This drama is under-rated! One of the best dramas! I cried when Dr Lee Young Oh (Jang Hyuk) finally cried. Jang Hyuk gives one of his best performances. How in the world can it get low ratings??? What in heaven's name are they watching in Korea?

Trela Aug 01 2016 6:31 pm Low rating??!

looks at the globe*

Where?

Common Aug 01 2016 6:27 pm So sad it will end soon. I'm broken in tears.

Spoiler episode 13 I cried qhen Lee Young O cried for the first time. When he realized he isn't a monster, he let his sadness out. When Jin Sung with him, he acted so cute.

Although there some scene being cut, the beauty of this drama is still there. Gonna miss it. Hope it will get an award because they deserve it.

Victoria Opkins Aug 01 2016 6:13 pm After seeing that beautiful mind has really low ratings in Korea, I keep thinking what kind of taste in movies, acting, drama, etc Koreans have. It's still very hard to believe that this drama has such low ratings. Lol

JAC Aug 01 2016 3:04 pm Yes I am going to miss this wonderful drama. Loved ep 13.

Thank you so much Beautiful Mind Cast,

Neha Aug 01 2016 1:49 pm This drama is such a beautiful one. I love it I TRULY LOVE IT! It breaks my heart its too under rated.

sawra Aug 01 2016 12:28 pm I can't believe this drama is going to be cut short and also can't believe this drama is getting a NR for every episode! Jang Hyuk is the best!

Nicole Aug 01 2016 3:05 am The story line/plot is amazing. Every episodes are exciting and worthwaiting. I hope they will just convert this into movie. The lead actor is still jang hyuk. I think the tandem between him and park min young will do.

George Aug 01 2016 12:12 am this is a recommended series to everyone.. been watching this from the start.. the actors were great..

prettysup Jul 31 2016 10:40 pm I will rate this 10/10 - everyone should watch it.

Manny2 Jul 31 2016 3:03 pm Beautiful Mind is a beautiful show. Don't miss it.

BeautyMindRocks Jul 31 2016 3:00 pm Beautiful Mind was truly one of the most beautiful dramas of 2016, including DOTS, Remember, and Dear My Friends. This show was not cancelled due to low ratings, why is that lie being promoted? Two episodes were cut because it had the Olympics breathing down its neck and KBS decided they could make more revenue with pre-Olympics' coverage than with another medical drama scheduled exactly at the same time as the more publicized but far more superficial drama Doctors. When it was announced that two episodes would be cut a petition started up that within five days had 10,000 signatures Please do not cut Beautiful Mind. Toward the end of both shows Beautiful Mind had a higher average ratings from fans than Doctors did. People loved Jang Hyuk in this show, with many fans discovering his brilliant talents for the first time. I give Beautiful Mind an A+. It is a beautiful show and I will miss it dearly.

Nelli Jul 31 2016 11:59 am So glad Lee Jong Suk declined the lead in this. Love him but Jang Hyuk is a much better choice for this lead character.

Nelli Jul 31 2016 11:57 am Too bad this has been getting low ratings. It's actually good. Love Jang Hyuk and like the story also. Good chemistry between the leads.

Ajumma Jul 31 2016 5:47 am What a pitty, just two more EP's then no more Lee Young-Oh T^T

@JuLia True

JuLia Jul 31 2016 2:38 am @Louise I agree with you. I guess some scene are being cut. It make the story uncompleted.

I'm really sad. I never been so heartbroken when a drama end early. Disappointed but not sad. This drama is the one and only that give me a heartache. I'm crying so hard. But I will remember Beautiful Mind as the most beautiful drama ever. Thank you BEAUTIFUL MIND crews and cast, you give us an excellent drama to remember

JuLia Jul 31 2016 2:36 am @Louise I agree with you. I guess some scene are being cut. It make the story uncompleted.

kdrama to dorama Jul 30 2016 11:31 pm How could they connect all stories if it is be shortern to 14 episodes..? ep 11 n 12 looks so hurry.how sad.it ruin the plot.

I just realised something..about Kdrama rules: as loong as you put over acting romance script and pick some popular artist as leads and lovey dovey plot you can win the rating for korean viewers. No need to write masterpiece drama with deep reasearch it will going to be waste.

I can see kdrama eras will go down to the bottom if they always approach viewers with similar popular plot to win the ratings. They lost their creativity..even the poster fr so many kdrama become similar lol between monster..beautiful mind uncontrollaby fond..ect.

Too bad so many talented actors and good writers could not explore their best talent because korean viewers dont need the quality but clichee drama.

Goodbye kdrama, thats why start to like dorama more specially for slice of life genre..the script pretty natural and the artist too. Hehehe

sunggyudear Jul 30 2016 7:14 pm But I guess no matter how perfect the story is, KBS has no luck on mystery romance during summer (june-august). Same thing happened to I Remember You during this exact time last year which also suffered from low ratings. Despite it's perfect story and casts, its average rating was 4.7

sunggyudear Jul 30 2016 6:54 pm I was thinking and thinking why this drama got low ratings and end up getting cut. First, it suffered from the competition against Doctors and Monster. Second, the development of the story was not perfect. Third, the story focused more on Lee Young Oh and gave everyone a screen time but not enough exploring them so we failed to feel connected with them. But one thing for sure is that the life lesson, the moral of each (medical) cases in this drama is stronger than Doctors or Monster. So I don't regret watching this drama and even though it's cut, I'm still glad they decided to round up the story to conclusion.

Louise Jul 30 2016 1:55 pm It's very tough to do a drama when the main character is someone with no feeling. It's great that it got the experienced actor to do the job. I love to watch the interaction between the main actor and actress as love story always catches more attention. That's more in episode 11 and I can see not only the main characters but others have good performance in that episode. I guess the development of this love story line showed rather late (too slow)and that hurts the rating. I tried to watch the drama a few times, its not that well connected. The two main characters were very good together at episode 11 while the development to that stage was not well built (may be because some were being cut) and suddenly turn into nothing in episode 12 (again I guess some were being cut during editing). It's a pity if 2 episodes would be cut at the end. Nevertheless, I forward to see a good ending for this drama. I did watch it a few times but I did not for Doctors!

christine mary Jul 30 2016 10:35 am this drama is so good!!! the story was well written and with great depth on it. its very disappointing they reduce the episodesand the ratings in korea is not that good. but definitely this is on of the best mediclal drama of 2016. I am watching doctors as well and i, loving it but i i was to compare the two, doctors focuses more on the love story while this one focuses on a deeper topic which is the journey to humanity and the beauty of one's mind and its power over a person. i cried more on beautiful mind for how it shows the struggles of a doctor who lost his empathy yet wanting to feel and sympathize with his patients and their families even if he himself never experienced it.

LIKEEN Jul 30 2016 10:12 am I LOVE this drama ! SAD. PERFECT storyline, Great cast and plot. KBS2 really made a huge mistake to cut !!

Deenee Jul 30 2016 8:53 am This is great drama. The plot is very good, different from other drama I saw. So disppointed that it was cut 2 episodes.

Bullayo Jul 30 2016 8:36 am What a great drama! Genius and refreshing plot compared to other common kdramas. Please dont cut the episodes

ART Jul 30 2016 8:15 am Sad that this drama is over next Tuesday ;(((( What to do after this drama ends?!!! *crying endlessly

Nghĩa Lê Jul 30 2016 6:57 am this is a great drama , it made me very emotional, I look forward to KBS will not cut the episode because this drama is very good

Nghĩa Lê Jul 30 2016 6:43 am please don't cut , I want to see all episodes ( crying )

Wanana Jul 30 2016 5:02 am A real masterpiece. Thanks all the cast and production team for your effort and good will. Special hugs to Writer Kim and Jang Hyuk. We've learned alot from this magnificent, beautiful drama ;)

Malaysian Jul 30 2016 1:41 am Jang Hyuk, you are beautiful actor..How can you make fall in love with Dr.Lee Young Oh with his nonexistence of emotions..You made me cried for him as i really can fell his longing for love and care..You really did a good job,oppa!!! This drama is jjang! 10/10 BEAUTIFUL MIND TEAM, FIGHTING!!!

critic Jul 29 2016 11:09 pm Simply great drama!

The cast, story, direction and production are awesome.

Its a disappointment what the missing 2 episodes would have been. Its like an untold chapter of an epic book.

LILI Jul 29 2016 9:22 pm why did KBS cut the episodes !!! SAD. This drama definitely deserved Best Drama Award and Jang Hyuk deserve Best Actor Award. Great Plot and very heartwarming story. Agreed 100% that the drama should be extended to 20 episodes at least.

Qarven Jul 29 2016 7:20 pm Why did they cut it?? It should be extended to 20 episodes. I don't understand why it has low ratings, this is deserves a top rank place. One of the best l have seen. Admittedly it has a slow (and annoying) start, but it takes up from ep 5. It is a really, really, really great piece. And the writers are just geniuses. I am really recommending this one!

Juli Jul 29 2016 3:51 pm I love the Story. Every moment is very entertaining. The cast is great. Especially Jang Hyuk. I am disappointed that KBS decided to reduce the episodes. I hope this fact will not significantly affect the story development and damage the complete work.

conspiracy Jul 29 2016 1:47 pm

- - ATTENTION***

I was searching up random dramas and came across another KBS2 run drama called "Blood" which aired just last year in 2015.

Despite the fact that NONE OF THE EPISODES ranked within the top 20 it still ran for 20 episodes. So did KBS2 really cut beautiful mind's already low 16 episode count to 14 just for "ratings"? It really makes me wonder...

Beesh Jul 29 2016 1:17 pm After watching this superb-amazing-wonderful drama, I won't watch any kdrama according to its ratings or its popularity. I apologise but Korean have no taste in dramas..

Roger Jul 29 2016 11:57 am Nice line at the end of episode 12, "I will not be a failure."

Ms. Bumblebee Jul 29 2016 6:41 am Looking forward to this drama during my confinement period. The cast especially Jang Hyuk really gives some vibes to the storylines. I'm so in love with this drama. Congrats to all production team. <3

star Jul 29 2016 2:40 am Excellent wonderful drama

Jane (^.^) Jul 29 2016 1:20 am Loving this drama, much more better than Doctors. I didn't get the chemistry between PSH and the old hero in Doctors, find it very flat and the story-line so-so only. But this drama, you don't need any chemistry because Jang Hyuk and his father are superb actor. They both make me chill with their facial expression (not sure if they are sad/angry/happy- its just sooo UNpredictable which is a good thing :)) - hope they can extend the episode to 16- of course, i am fan from outside Korea.

prettysup Jul 28 2016 10:58 pm @Lovekdrama No the writer Kim Tae Hee here is not the actress, they just happen to have the same names.

Hou Jul 28 2016 10:13 pm Beautiful Minds is a different korean drama I' ve ever watched, the plot story of this drama made us currious and it's not talk only about the romance like all drama's did. The story is good and the actors are excellent, especially Jang Hyuk. I am really dissapoint if the episodes are shorted because of the rating. Please reconsider it.

Fangirl Jul 28 2016 10:02 pm OMG OMG OMG this drama is OH EM GEE! Everything about it is perfect...never watched a Kdrama as powerful as this one...y'all should watch it. I don't understand why Koreans themselves don't like this drama, they have a horrible taste in dramas I can say! -_-

Sheilan Jul 28 2016 9:11 pm I am really enjoying this drama... it is good. The writing is good. The acting is good. It is an original and interesting. I am sad that KBS is so short sighted and is stopping it before the full 16 episodes play out. What a shame. When someone has an unusual idea like this it is wonderful to see it fully how it was intended. Thank you to all who created it and are part of it. I like it!

Common Jul 28 2016 8:21 pm @Keerthy : I think young o frontal lobe is damaged so he can empathize. But the reason why its damaged not because of the surgery but because how his father treat him as a monster. that's why his frontal lobe damaged. There's a scene when his father confirmed young o frontal lobe condition after the surgery to kim min jae. That's my opinion.

zeinobious Jul 28 2016 7:03 pm @Keerthy yes you are right , which is really heartbreaking and I feel very sorry for poor young o

Livia Jul 28 2016 4:19 pm To me it's a 10/10 drama, good, interesting, clever, and if it is shortened reason surely the truth inside it, truth about how doctors decide about life / death following what money dictates, same with drug research, it just tells too much truth. Thanks for this this drama.

nindiaszahra Jul 28 2016 12:27 pm This drama so amazing. Actor Jang Hyuk playing his role look like real. This drama teach us that children who have a deficiency is not always problematic. Maybe some people not watching this drama so this drama have low rating. So sad when to know this drama have low rating

Myla Jul 28 2016 11:31 am It's frustrating they shortened this drama. I have never seen such story in the US or any where. The public wasn't ready and the timing was premature. They should have waited until some other well known drama had pass.

kris♥ Jul 28 2016 9:06 am Jang Hyuk whatever you do is really a masterpiece. You're the best Korean actor for me. Beautiful Mind is really awesome and so are you. ♥

Victoria Jul 28 2016 8:17 am I'm surprised this drama is not rated at all...this is the most enjoyable drama for me so far in 2016 tho I can't say d ones yet to air...as in I love love this drama more than the ones that are rated. I don't know why is not rated mayb cos of the leading actor and actress but I tell u they r d bomb in discussions

amalist Jul 28 2016 7:56 am This drama is just perfectttt! How is it even possible to have low ratings? I hate thissss :'(

Sya Jul 28 2016 6:31 am Oh noooo.. i love this drama so much

LoLa Jul 28 2016 6:00 am This drama is an intelligent one ... very good as I may say.

LoLa Jul 28 2016 5:58 am Park So-Dam is a very cute girl and I think she's a potential good actress it was just because her previous drama as a teenager was too far from her role here as a cop and older lead guy as the the love interest. Not a good timing for her. The sudden change of maturity from a teenie bopper role triggered the viewership. Her manager should given a deeper thought about accepting her next projects. She looks very young as if she's only 17.

rose Jul 28 2016 4:32 am I think this is a very good medical drama. It's very heartwarming. So sad that they will cut this drama because of its low rating.

Asoka Jul 28 2016 12:24 am Why why? I don't understand. I love this drama. Maybe some people don't watch this drama yet. If people watch it I am sure they will love

prettysup Jul 27 2016 11:41 pm Don't be fooled by the ratings, this is one gem of a drama that everyone MUST watch - it is intelligent, funny and heartwrenching at the same time.. never been so engrossed in a drama.

Sara Jul 27 2016 10:23 pm Ehem..i think for those who said that PSD acting is no good, better leave her alone. If she wasnt good enough, then why did they offer her to be in their drama. For me she is a good actres and she will be better and great in the future. Lets pray for her success. Peace yo!

Eka Jul 27 2016 10:14 pm Omg!! This is the best kdrama in 2016 that I ever watch.. I really like the story line.. It's make me wonder what will happen in next ep.. So sad that form 16 ep, they cut to just 14 ep. This drama should have more ep than 16..

japag Jul 27 2016 10:04 pm @Europe fan , actually we have the same thought in the beginning of the drama but as the drama goes on you will regret what youve done and said because (spoiler alert) she will be promoted and her character will be mature unlike her beginning character that i find annoying because shes just a rookie police officer.

Julie Jul 27 2016 9:27 pm This drama !! My heart !! Best medical drama so far !!! I'm so sad that it's ending soon !!! I thought there were going to be 16 episodes but I guess they cut it short

'(

Lovekdrama Jul 27 2016 8:11 pm Well first of all I am so surprised that the writer of this series is Kim Tae Hee. Is she really that actress Kim Tae Hee who writes this drama? Such a talented lady!! Great storyline great plot and great Jang Hyuk can pulls off this kind of role! I don't understand why they gave low ratings to every drama with great storyline like this!!! IMHO this drama is even better than descendants of the sun. Sorry to dots fans but i am really not into cheesy drama. I love this kind of unpredictable drama

whitewolf Jul 27 2016 8:03 pm For those who keep saying Jin-Sung's character is annoying, you know what you're more annoying! In the real world you can't expect to find a girl to be all too good as portrayed by most female leads in dramas. Everyone has flaws and that flaw makes a person unique and that flaw may irritate you but to other people they may find it adorable or pleasing. Also, the moment she turned annoying to your eyes into someone you may root for is called character development. You can't expect her to be stagnant, in fact it proves that her character is not one dimensional as most female characters in dramas. Just like Young-O's character growth/transformation, one must start somewhere and evolve. That's what makes this drama interesting, being able to show that one's character can be influenced by the people that come into your life or by the circumstances you experience. Though the episodes will be cut short, the team behind this drama did not fail in giving something w/ quality, refreshing, out of the box & worth watching story.

Redredred Jul 27 2016 8:00 pm Wowww!!! This ep 12 is touching... This drama is the best medical drama so far...

Unfortunately people nowadays choose more popularity than the story. what i can say this drama taught me a lot.

For the writer thank you for showing us about humanity lesson.

Chela Jul 27 2016 6:29 pm Good drama. Excellent acting of Jang Hyuk, but his partner didn't help at all. This drama has a good plot, you are always waiting for more clues what makes the drama more interesting. It's a shame that people side popularity instead of quality. It's really sad that it won't finish in the way was planed.

Keerthy Jul 27 2016 4:28 pm Spoiler alert .. !!!!!( Don't read if you didn't see ep 12)

Hey .. Can someone explain ep 12.. ?! Are they saying young o frontal lobe is not damaged ?! And the surgery was a success ,,. But he couldn't empathise bcoz his dad made him like that by saying he is a monster !!?? Em I right or wrong .. Someone explain

Chris Y Jul 27 2016 1:16 pm Nice drama... Enjoy every episode...

Zoka Herrera Jul 27 2016 11:37 am From the very beginnin I was captivated by this drama!!! However, I keep reading comments like " the main actress is too young or she's too annoying or whines too much" in my eyes this drama couldn't had been the same if it wasnt with them two!!! You have to put two and two together in order to appreciate this drama to its fullest and that means with the same cast and story, I do truly like this drama one of the best of the years and years to come!!! Focused towards adults and stellar plots and production. Fighting! !!!!!!

beng Jul 27 2016 11:28 am Thank you KBS for this good drama and thank you JS for presenting another unforgettable character Dr. Lee Young-O!

beng Jul 27 2016 11:19 am Love this drama and JS has not failed to give us good acting here as he has done in his past dramas. It's unfortunate the series is cut down. I made a comment here right before this drama was aired about PSD being too young to be paired with JS. I think I was right on this plus the female traffic police character which PSD played was very "thin" and sometimes "irritating" materially as far as the story is concerned. I hope the screenplay will be able to tie up all lose ends in the story and for the director to present a successful finale that will make us remember "Beautiful Mind" that will last us until another good JS drama will be offered by KBS which I hope will be in the near future.

Kanda Jul 27 2016 10:24 am Love this series so much. I am really addicted to the plot and acting of Jang Hyuk and Heo Jun-Ho. If shorten series to 14 episodes, I think it will make audience so confuse and what is the root cause of symptom of Jan Hyuk.

This is not the attractive series at first glance. It may be because of there are 2 doctor series shown nearly at the same time. And "Doctor" will be more attractive to the audience because of actor & actress who play the lead role and romantic plot. However, "Doctor" has no turning point and following point ... what is going next in the next episode, including cause and affect of any each event. So, I lost attention easily and turn to other series immediately. I think I can watch this series whenever I have enough free time and catch up on the more attractive series.

In contrary to this series, I am full of guessing what next? and how to end this series? For ep 1-12, I love ep 12 at most because of clue released in this ep, plot and acting of all actors, esp. the man who plays as a patient.

Last but not least, I wish this series will live the full of 16 episodes. Plzzzzzz.

Europe fan Jul 27 2016 8:53 am I think that Park So-Dam's acting skills are very bad. Nice plot of the drama, but awful main actress is equal to low rating. It is not important that she is not very beautiful, but as actress is a disaster. Because of her annoying play I gave up on this drama, didn't manage to finish ep 1. For my regret she is main cast for Cinderella and four knights :(

Jessi Jul 27 2016 8:52 am What a great drama T.T and yet kbs still wanna cut the remaining 2 episodes. I hate you for this

george Jul 27 2016 8:10 am this film is awesome, perfact,super nice but I feel sorry & annoyed cause of low rating .how shamefull that those cheesy abstract dramas have more rating. casting esp mr.jung hyuk after "thank you" & "iris2" it was perfect comeback in my idea, because I didn't like your previous dramas. fighting; this film is astradinory.

Chika Jul 27 2016 6:42 am what happend in episode 12, so is it her father failed ? not malpractice, but it's because the way his father raise him. in the beginning scene of episode 12 we can see that he is happy because his father love him, he even pain it. is that what happend? then what is his friend's father purpose did that to him? it's unpredicatable story. i am so curious what will happend next episode

sen Jul 27 2016 6:22 am Great drama! now words !!!! Really Jang Hyuk should be much mre acknowledged for his skills !!!! he is the best !!!! the drama Just the best!!!!!

Abdoo19 Jul 27 2016 4:32 am that was really a big shock ... I thought Young O was like that because the failure of his father surgey ... but the fact is the surgey didn't fail but young o was like that because his father teach him to do so .... this drama is really a masterpiece of feelings and thoughts... it really moves my feelings.. I think the in the end young o will discover that it's not the brain who control the feelings but it's the heart and i Think that's the reason of JS question to sukjoo

japag Jul 27 2016 4:15 am i think if this drama is in tvn , this will have escalating rating . like signal. i anticipate every episode because its unpredictable and so its trilling until i finished the end. all are really good actors nothing to say. really hope they will be acknowledge in the upcoming kbs award and i don't doubt it like the village :achiaras secret though they have low rating the actors are acknowledge due to their good portrayal fighting guys though i doubt the rating but for me this drama is a masterpiece : from ph psych student ^_-

Sara Jul 27 2016 3:30 am @Beatriz . truly agree with u. My heart also want to explode!!! But i really pity to JS in this ep. Also not much scene of her. I wonder why.

Jasmine Jul 27 2016 3:20 am Please don't shorten the drama. One of the best dramas I have seen on KBS. Great storyline great acting...

negoolian Jul 27 2016 1:22 am someone tell me what the hell happened in ep12 ????!!!! what did the father figure out?? was it his mistake or not after all ???

summer Jul 27 2016 1:16 am I'm so sad that the episodes are shorthened due the low rating :( I think this drama has a good story.. especially about a doctor who has anti social personality and he's strugling become a good doctor and having relationship with the others.. this story tell about our lives, not only about romantic relationship between man and woman.. The 10th episode is really touching, It's heart breaking when Lee Young Oh give up his feeling because the MRI explain that his brain is not developed any progress.. The story about Sung Eun and his friend also make me sad :( why his friend ended up died after discharged from hospital :(

forsythia Jul 26 2016 11:44 pm @Blossom have you watch this drama? at least until ep 6? if yes, then i have nothing to say. but if no, then i ask you to try to watch it first before you says anything on the lead actors and actresses. because the lead actor's performance is great and mind-blowing, and the lead actress, though for the earlier episodes,most people hate her, but she changed and she is just so natural. this story is great and it becomes greater because of the actors, not just the leads, but all the supporting actors as well. i agree that most people choose a drama to watch because of the lead, so i hope through this drama, people can change their mindset.A true art is not measured by popularity or beautiful face alone. As most people says 'Don't judge a book by its cover'. Have an effort to know it and you will slowly fall in love and this is what this drama do to most people.

nana1996 Jul 26 2016 10:25 pm This is the best drama of the year after Descendants of the Sun.. I heard that episodes going to be only 14 instead of 16.. Becuase of the low numbers of viewers.. Thats sooo unfair.. This drama is way better than doctors but why low number of viewers.. I think its bcs park shin hye in doctors made it more popular ans successfull.. But in my opinion doctors drama is boring and nothing new from other previous kdrama's.. While beautiful mind every episode is full of surprises and action..

Theresa Jul 26 2016 9:53 pm I really enjoyed this drama and the actors though police officer shouldn't be that clueless about their job. I wish it was aired completely. Although the other actors turn down the lead role this actor was the real correct choice. The other two dont look the age requirements or the cool finesse this actor gave.

Beatriz Jul 26 2016 9:05 pm Dear Writernim,

what do you want to happen to us watching Episode 12? Do you want our hearts to explode??? whew..such an excellent drama.

hfitriy Jul 26 2016 8:32 pm this drama is really good. i love this drama because it show something different than other drama.. i was dissapointed because this drama become shortten

rene Jul 26 2016 8:14 pm this is a very good medical drama comparable to american medical dramas. all the characters, not just the leads, perform their parts well. and the plots are different every episode that surprises everytime unlike in some k-dramas you could guess what's the next move. I never failed to watch every episode of BM. as of now, among kbs dramas, this is the only one I like most and secrets of women a distant second. i don't watch the unusual family after noticing that the lead guy mr gu did what kang taejun did on the promise. forsaking his long time girlfriend to marry a rich girl or family for ambition. as for other kbs dramas, i don't watch five enough and uncontrollobly fond because again, the theme is the same, the lead has cancer. shame on you kbs. this comment from a viewer from the philippines

Blossom14 Jul 26 2016 7:59 pm I can say that leading actor and actress plays a great part of the series. Even how good the story are and if you say that its better than doctors series, however leading actors and actress plays a great part of the story that could win the heart of the viewers. Well, as a fan of korean dramas way back 2002, i can say yes it is. I dont find the leading actor and actress catches my attention.

hinatasun Jul 26 2016 7:56 pm his drama is great, really it's far better than doctors in term of scenario and the acting OMG how can it be rating be so poor !!!! it seems to me that only the teens in korea are watching tv because i can't understand otherwise

leoni Jul 26 2016 7:36 pm I agree this drama more better then doctors,i really really like this drama

Steve-O Jul 26 2016 6:17 pm Injustice indeed!! This drama even deserve more than 16 episodes.. why cut 2 eps instead!?? Both Doctors and BM are great dramas but Doctors is very Overrated..

Kokopuffs Jul 26 2016 6:09 pm So sad to see such an amazing drama being forced to bend to the will of ratings!!! My gawd! Its so infuriating! I can imagine how the writer must feel being told to take her precious creative work and change it around to something it wasn't meant to be simply because of money. Wow KBS2 you really look disgusting right now. Writernim to you I say amazing amazing amazing work you have there. Such a beautiful, intense, mature, real, engrossing, tag-at-ourheartstrings drama you have gifted us with. I still can't believe how great it is. And I am even the more thankful that those two actors passed up the project because JANG HYUK!!! Wow Jang Hyuk is doing Lee Young Oh complete and total justice!! Watching him every week makes our hearts melt and our eyes tear. Thank you for fighting for those two episodes for us writernim and team. I really hope the story will not be influenced too much and we most certainly look forward to your future works. And in future please don't give your drama to a station like KBS2 ever again! Go to private owned ones like TVN who only air the best (of which your work fits perfectly) and who will not let "ratings" get in the way. And Koreans need to also get serious. How are they not watching this?? So sad for them. They don't know what they are missing. HWAITING!!! Beautiful Mind, HWAITING!!! writernim!

roro Jul 26 2016 6:07 pm one of the best kdrama ever ,great original story, great actors , don't know why they shortned it , i guess people prefer the awkward romance .... well never mind and fightiiing to the BM team

beyz Jul 26 2016 4:56 pm This drama is really really better than Doctors. I am watching both of them and i can see their quality diffence. Beautiful mind is not deserve quick end. It is injustice. Their history is amazing and interesting. How korean people cannot see which one is better? I am sorry about episodes numbers and all of cast members...

Kim Jul 26 2016 3:54 pm I can't understand why this is being cancelled. It's way better than Doctors

sousou Jul 26 2016 2:29 pm OMG.... I love this drama so much, I just don't understand why it has to end so quickly....why Korean people don't like this serie it's 100 time better than doctors

chunu Jul 26 2016 11:48 am I want to curse those Korean people who are such a fools. Leaving such a great drama and only following after the popularity of the actors and actress . Guys please watch this drama and make its rating high so we can get enough episodes upto 20 maximum. ........but I think my comment is too late

Joe Jul 26 2016 9:55 am I love this drama a lot. Casting are excellent. The storyline improved as it progress. I'm sorry that the drama has to be cut shorter but I hope it will not spoil the plots and the climax of the drama.

han Jul 26 2016 9:08 am i dont knw y...y this drama not being in korean people heart. a lot of viewer compared it with another ongoing drama n so far this drama have a place in international viewer. i believe it. :) :) thank u so much for the director, writer, jang hyuk, park so dam and all cast. thumb up from malaysia.

MCPerez Jul 26 2016 8:33 am I love this drama very much. I was disappointed that they are ending it abruptly.

Jessi Jul 26 2016 8:25 am It is not fair you cut the remaining 2 episodes! I hate you kbs for this! This is a good drama compare to the others. Please don't cut it. Im begging youuu

Migthy Thor Jul 26 2016 7:39 am There are news that says that Beautiful Mind was cut short by two episodes because of Park So-Dam. She is the lead actress also for "Cinderella and the Four Knights" and conflict of schedule arises that she cannot tend to the shooting days of Beautiful Mind...

japag Jul 26 2016 7:31 am all i can say in this drama is there are lot of good actors. there are lot of scene stealer. and the cases of medical are really deep really! scene stealer like Shim Yi-Young ,Kim Hyung-Kyu ALL are good actors! i wish they will be acknowledge in the awarding! anyways epi 11 last scene was i "lee young oh is jerk" the MOST xD hahaha really hes so straight possibly cauz of his disorder epi 11 is so fun, touching anticipating as always fan from ph

Pina Jul 26 2016 7:10 am I do love this drama. Touching and warm story. I don't really like medical drama before, but after watch it, i like it. Great acting for all the actors, actress and great writer too. This drama is awesome....two thumbs.

Like doramas japan, although only short episodes (10 or 11 ep) but still good to watch until ending. So, i wish Beautiful Mind will end beautifully too, although thisa drama only 14 episodes. So we can always remember it.

Thank you Jang Hyuk and Park So Dam, you represent character Dr Lee Young O and Officer Gye Jin Sung so beautiful. Fighting and love you, wifi couple....:)

bijaya roka Jul 26 2016 6:50 am I have been watching this drama after long time. Its one of the best drama so far. Great storyline and superb acting from leading actor. I just found out that they will cut it short becouse of low rating. To be honest this is the drama that kept me interest in korean drama. I was geting bored watching other korean dramas. I don't know why it has got low rating, may be koreans have lost the true taste of superb drama. No mater what this drama will always be my one of the best drama and I want to see same actor's drama very soon in future.

Dina Jul 26 2016 6:04 am It's a veery very good drama I'm so addicted to it pleeeeease don't cut 2 episodes please

Anya Jul 26 2016 6:03 am I really like beautiful mind !!why you cut just ep.14 i think beautiful mind it better than doctors !!

sara Jul 26 2016 5:55 am why did you do that,im from malaysia and i think this is the best drama ever compared to doctors,chincha

DinDa Jul 26 2016 1:32 am Why KBS2 ? why? why must u cut 2 eps !!! BM is the best medical drama I have ever watched, for all that contribute in this great drama I SALUTE & THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH !

I HATE U KBS2 !!!

but I still will love u for FIVE CHILDREN !!

Please reconsider about us the overseas KDRAMA lover plsss !!

Common Jul 26 2016 12:27 am episode 11 just so cute. Young O doesn't know Love, but he 'scared' to hear Jin sung answer. How cute, when he make an excuse. Love it. I'm crying so hard knew it will end early. How can it just 14, when 16 is not enough. «sob...sob...»

Bettle Jul 25 2016 10:32 pm Don't cut the episodes please

Evelyn Jul 25 2016 10:03 pm I'm from Nebraska. Maybe we don't matter because we are not Korean. We love Jang Hyuk and his drama. What a great actor and every scene or episode has been great. Why are you cutting this drama to fill the request of the I like candy group. Fantastic drama each and every episode. I watch these dramas here beause the actors are great. What a let down whoever decided to cut drama short. For this cause I have to give you guys a "5 rating"

Seyo Jul 25 2016 9:30 pm Would be nice the lead actress was really great cos the lead actor was superb good! Too bad low ratings

Evette Moms Jul 25 2016 9:22 pm This is a great drama. It is so much better than a love story.. it's like a Korean version of "House "plus the suspense that makes you want more.. low ratings????? We want 16 episode's. :)

Thao Jul 25 2016 9:17 pm Is this because the drama doesn't have as many young and famous actors? Because that's the only thing I can think of why this show has no rating. I mean they have Jang Hyuk and Park Se Young, who I think are both pretty famous, but I guess with Park Shin Hye and Kim Rae Won as the competitors, they cannot compared. But it makes me mad because this is such a good drama, one that I didn't wanna skip a single episode, which is something that never happened before to me.

Chiyomi Jul 25 2016 8:52 pm This is so unfair because I really enjoy this drama and I don't see the reason for the episodes to cut short. I'm just in love with this drama and the characters. How can they do this to me??? I'm so disappointed. Monster drama needs to get cut because it's getting boring and the episode are just too long. It's better than Doctor Crush, " Beautiful Mind is just very unique in every way. I hope they reconsider this because I'm upset. This is the best dram that I've ever watched. Jang hyuk is such a great Actor and person. He portrait the character very well. Wow, I never knew I could fall in love with a character because I will definitely watched this drama over and over and over again. I just love it. One of the thing that jang hyuk had said is that "when he's filming a drama they hired stunt double and instead of him that get hurts, they do instead of him. Every if the stunt double is bleeding or hurting he gets back up and refilm the scene again. He said that makes him want to work harder as an actor. So every time I watched a drama I kept thinking of the scene where the actor was suppose to get his but the stunt double did instead. I will always remember those words for life. I hope In his next drama or movie that things like that never happen again. I'm really sad and upset about that. Fighting jang hyuk Oppa saranghae.....

Migthy Thor Jul 25 2016 8:50 pm I believe this Korean drama "Beautiful Mind" is a genius well written, well researched medical story. It's educational and entertaining. The entire cast especially Jang Hyuk, Park So-Dam, Yoon Hyun-Min, Park, Se-Young, Heo Jun-Ho are just so brilliant! The directorial is fantastic! Is a waste to cut it short just because the local audience can not appreciate such a great drama. I fervently hope the management considers the international intellectual audience who truly applaud a world class drama. To the entire production, crew, staff, personnel and cast, CONGRATULATIONS for coming up with such a masterpiece! FIGHTING (",)

prettysup Jul 25 2016 7:42 pm Don't be fooled by the low ratings, this is one of the best medical dramas ever aired. Superb storyline and acting throughout! Not to be missed !!!

DangSu Jul 25 2016 7:33 pm This is unbelievable!! This deama is amazing, I can say it's one the best or perhaps The Best kdrama I've ever watched. Everything about it is perfect. It's genius, I don't really get why its rankings are so low :|

CaliforniaDream Jul 25 2016 7:01 pm This is an excellent Drama. I think it is better than Doctor Crush. I don't understand the low ratings. Sad that it is shortened to 14 episodes.

Jamie Jul 25 2016 5:04 pm I cant stay still having this beautiful and one of the best dramas I've ever watched in my whole life being shortened. Why??? And what shock me the most is that this best drama doesnt even have good ratings? I dont understand people..

audrey Jul 25 2016 4:59 pm I really like this drama. Too bad that it was cut due to low ratings. I dont understand why it has low ratings, because for me it is one of a kind.

roger Jul 25 2016 3:15 pm Underrated show. Too bad they shortened it.

Jane Jul 25 2016 3:06 pm the best medical drama, i like every detail in this drama, the story line, the acting and the script, all is perfect package. the writer is genius one that can make the story line and script more interest. good job for all the crew. this drama get more deserve award and rating than doctors.

Rithika Jul 25 2016 2:00 pm I watched over 50 dramas.. This is one of the best and a gem .. Why no ratings ?? It hurts me .. How could someone don't like this drama ?? It's kinda delivers good message .,, but if some big ( real big ) actors were present , ratings would have gotten higher .. Like DoTS or doctors ., it happens in every country ., big actors films and drama get more popular ., TBH , no can give act so well like jang Hyuk .. He delivered the character perfectly .. He made me feel like he can't feel any emotions ( frontal lobe issues ) that was awesome ,, gave a new perspective regarding mental health .. Love can help that ,, pls dont skip this ,, it's a good one

Sandra Jul 25 2016 1:56 pm Woooooooooooooooow ..I really liiiiiiiike this drama .. Mr/s Writer well done you're genious..Really down by 2 ep I wonder why ?!! This is a huuuuge mistake KBS.. ..Anyway I really enjoyed each episode..congratulations for the whole cast (y)

Maya Jul 25 2016 11:33 am I'm so angry!!! They say they like bad guys than here we go they are shocked! It's such good drama! It's the first time I get interested in medical plot, if I remember well in medical dramas they never focused on medical things always focused on romance. How good this will be if there were a doctor like that T_T And it's rare to see violent sides in korean dramas which it got excited me, that I used to go to thai lakorns to see this kind of dramas. It's tiring to see always sweet romance or depressing romance.

Yasmine Jul 25 2016 9:31 am God this drama is so underrated.I honestly can't believe there are only 14 episodes. It's is by far the best i've watched (and i watched A LOT). The actors are phenomenal and the storyline is truely wonderful. I can only hope there will be another season.

JG10 Jul 25 2016 7:34 am This is a very interesting drama, well acted and deserves a very high rating. I am enjoying every episode. Sorry you are cutting it to 14 episodes, cheers to Jang Hyuk and Park So Dan

johyis Jul 25 2016 4:41 am I really really really really like this drama. The characters are very well-defined and very interesting. It's such a shame that it's only airing for 14 episodes. I hope they would extend it to 20+ episodes or create something of similar plot only please have it for a longer airing period!!! It's kinda like a korean version of sherlock, very intriguing and mysterious. I beg you to do more dramas of this kind

Shairli Jul 24 2016 10:32 pm I am among the few watching this drama. I like it whatever the TV station says. There are people who appreciates this kind of drama.. why shorten it? Jang Hyuk & Park So Dam are good.

SungArin Jul 24 2016 10:30 pm Why KBS cut the episode of this drama?because the rating?shame on you KBS! I like the plot, story, actors.. although this drama has hundreds of episodes, I'll keep watching because isn't boring at all

(

Hope KBS consideration audiences outside Korea who love this drama

prettysup Jul 24 2016 7:18 pm Even if you don't recognise the ratings you got to recognise the acting. They better give Jang Hyuk an award end of the year.

rasha Jul 24 2016 7:11 pm This drama is very popular in the Arab world we are entitled to see this beauty ..

Wi-Fi shippers Jul 24 2016 11:43 am I really hope Wi-Fi couple romance should be developed more. Waiting for kiss scene from them. Jang Hyuk and Park So Dam seemed to be odd pairing at first but now I like their chemistry.

PS: No more comparing to Doctors please. I'm saying this as a loyal fan of both drama. There's few like me that watch both drama. Some has left Beautiful Mind due to nasty comment at here. So, no more ok. I'm a hardcore wi-fi shippers, so will keep supporting Beautiful Mind till the end.

Abdoo19 Jul 24 2016 8:38 am Korean people doesn't desreve a drama like this .. they just want those pinky dramas all the time ... I really feel so angry that we re going to lose such amazing drama because of those ... I mean we also have a voice but we can't do anything ... I go to every KBS facebook pages and complain about that ... I know I am one voice but that what I could do

f.kh Jul 24 2016 7:59 am we love this drama. why KBS don't care about us??? I really became disappointed with KBS.

japag Jul 24 2016 6:56 am i hate you kbs!! this is the only kdrama that i still continue to watch but due to cheap reason it was shortened. okay business is business. -.-

Putri Jul 24 2016 5:31 am I wanna be friends with all of you guys Yall express my depressed feeling bcs KBS really made nonsense decision like unprofessional station.

reem Jul 24 2016 5:08 am I'm not a Korean girl, but I love this drama

A painful decision for me .

P Jul 24 2016 4:56 am one of the BEST dramas & stories really no need to shorten it! :(

BeautifulMindBeautifulSoul Jul 24 2016 4:31 am @DerekShepherd well it is so hard not to compare. The comparison is so inevitable bc they both are medical-themed drama. And they're both premiered in the same time. So yeah BM fans always comparing them both. But, ive never heard the other way around, bc Doctors fans realize and knew, that their fav drama is not as gripping as BM. So this is why Doctors fans always asking BM fans to stop comparing. Because hell, BM is better than Doctors. But sadly, koreans always fall to clichéd drama. This is my opinion.

Sara Jul 24 2016 2:42 am I hope that they will not make only a few scene for YO n JS to cover the conflict to be solved.

What u guys think.

whynot Jul 24 2016 2:37 am this is the best drama currently airing. why would they shorten it?!

Yoomi Jul 24 2016 2:19 am I am so very so very so very disappointing with KBS's decision. I swear this drama is my fav. for 2016 so far. I understand why the low rating .. excuse me, but it is because of the Korean fav. genre is only comedy romance .. I really got sick of this genre and all the hit dramas are like this. Pity tho beautiful mind is a waste in the Korean broadcasts; it should be internationally aired.

max Jul 24 2016 12:35 am saw the # of episodes went down to 14...so disappointing..=( how could they cut this beautiful drama...=(

Andrea Jul 24 2016 12:10 am Is it possible if there is additional episode not included to KBS , just for online audience.. Huhuhu (mournful)

UF Jul 23 2016 11:52 pm What?!! Shortened to 14 bcs rating? please rethink again KBS! beautiful mind best storyline!! disappointed right now:((

DerekShepherd Jul 23 2016 10:29 pm Why can people just say, Beautiful Mind is as good as Misaeng or Signal. I just hate the saying Beautiful Mind are better than DOTS, Doctors etc. I watch Beautiful Mind with the rest of other dramas. Please don't compare. Each drama has their own strength. How hurt if other people say Beautiful Mind is non comparable to Grey's Anatomy or House.

lynn Jul 23 2016 10:12 pm plis dont cut the ep of this drama..i love this drama& its the best ever drama with perfect story line...leading actors & actress are doing well so plis keep to the original storyline

martha Jul 23 2016 7:43 pm this drama was popular in asia and other country, it tells the director, writer, productions and cast are amazing!they are genius enough to have this. the story is peculiar compared to doctors, a very common story, it doesn't ignite interest. that's why im asking, why its too early to end??pls...extend the story.tnx

amy Jul 23 2016 5:46 pm After all, korean always go with "its all about the look". This drama has a beautiful and mysterious storyline and a perfect actor and actrees to play the character. kbs, I hope you put your head deep down to everyone that dissapointed with your decision.

sara Jul 23 2016 3:02 pm I love this drama!!!!! The acting is perfect and the story line is perfectly written. Please rethink about shortening it!!! >.< I want 16 episodes................

Malopin Jul 23 2016 2:20 pm This is one of the most gripping tales. It kept me anticipating for the next episode. It might not be recognized in Korea but I think the international viewers loves it. The drama is awesome! I hope you rethink shortening it to 14 episodes.

grace Jul 23 2016 11:54 am Shame on KBS!!! just because the drama is low at rating they give up the 2 episode!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why you accept this drama when they offer you this drama! LOW RATING DRAMA DOESN'T MEAN LOW QUALITY DRAMA!!! I thought you are a proffesional television chanell... I think they need "not so good drama" with high rating than good quality drama.tsk

anneBS Jul 23 2016 10:39 am I almost gave up watching this drama because of the female lead's role in the first 3 ep. (but m glad i didn't!). I consider this one of the best medical drama (if not the best) i have ever watched. As usual Jang Hyuk's acting is great. So i really can't understand why they have to shortened this drama with 2 ep. (From 16 eps originally to 14 eps). Why? Why? You are seriously making a mistake.

patree Jul 23 2016 10:24 am Beautiful Mind is my best Drama!! Love all the delicate details of it. Such a smooth and really attractive story-line character and the performance. T^T Just want to send lots of Huggu to all the actors and the making team, keep Fighting!!!

praise Jul 23 2016 9:09 am Why do you shorten, I am crying i love this drama, seriously k viewers, I am wishing them the best.

elvirlie ann belvis Jul 23 2016 8:20 am Its nice drama why 14 only......

Obet Jul 23 2016 8:07 am What shorten the series to 14 instead 16 episodes! Pity us who love watching it. Hope the story writers, director, and actors will not be discouraged by its low rating. It may not have a mass appeal in korea because of its serious medical content. But its acting, story twists and plot are superb. Kudos and hats off to its production. Its one of best dramas I've watched.

helen dancer Jul 23 2016 7:08 am I rate beautiful mind higher than Doctors; Doctors is just another boy gets girl/gets revenge story. Beautiful mind has a different story line. I was looking forward to watching the entire 16 episodes. There are people who like to watch dramas with great acting. Truly disappointed.

rajee Jul 23 2016 7:02 am I didn't watched this drama from starting but suddenly i thought of giving it a shot and i myself was shocked because this became my 1st favourite drama of the year after marriage contract (there are dramas like DOTS,Another Oh HaeAgain and Doctors they had high ratings without much interesting plots) This was first drama which i watched without skipping at least 1 second and now i am totally disappointed that i am going to miss the original story that was meant to be telecasted with the most beautiful talented actors and drama which suits its name perfectly as BEAUTIFUL MIND. This was my first comment i ever made on any drama and i am sorry if it hurts your feelings.

Sheela Jul 23 2016 6:01 am KBS only see the rating from Korea but not internationally. This drama is famous internationally and I'm upset that it has been shortened to 14 episodes. Yes we can say if it started 2 weeks earlier as it was scheduled the rating may be good but what can we do when it is aired as same timing with Doctor crush?

Giving excuses of Olympics is really outrageous and what about other dramas currently airing? I don't hear it is getting cut too.

Just because rating low doesn't mean the drama is not doing well internationally. I hope the stars and crews would do well the balance 4 episodes.

Tsu Jul 23 2016 5:21 am WE LOVE THIS DRAMA! <3 So horrible and sad that they shortened it. Really hoping they change the decision and release the other two episodes as well. Please don't shorten it! :'(

Martha Jul 23 2016 3:51 am Why are you reducing beautiful mind episodes ?Let it not be because of some stupid competition that you are hurting your fans. You are not supposed to treat your fans that way because of something else. Please,try to think of your fans's happiness.

#SupportingBM Jul 23 2016 2:26 am I don't usually watch Korean dramas but when I first saw this drama, I decided to watch it immediately. All the elements that fulfill this beautiful story are precious and amazing. I love the casts, the productions, the screenplay and more. I feel sad for those 2 episodes reduced due to the low ratings. I will not know how this story exactly is anymore. To postpone broadcasting is better than reduce the numbers of episodes. It ruins the original story. This drama is true art which is underrated. It would be good if there's a book about this drama, like screenplay perhaps. It would be nice to have a chance knowing what the real version of this story is.

The crew did their best. We got an awesome drama thanks to them all. It's not their fault for the drama being shortened.

BeautifulMind

Ann Jul 23 2016 1:25 am How about we send KBS emails? Maybe they would increase the episodes

JJ Jul 23 2016 12:45 am This comment will be long, I want to express everything I felt about Beautiful Mind.

I am really disappointed with KBS. Last time they did it to Moorim School, but I didn't watch it (don't bash me! I'm no longer into high school dramas) Although I don't watch every single episode because of time, but I still look forward of watching it later. Honestly, at first I wasn't interested, but after watching a few times, maybe just around 10-15 per episode, I loved it. This is a very good drama, not just like any crappy dramas. It's hard for me to settle down on one drama, and if I do, it means that drama is good. Even if my favorite celebrities act in a drama, but that drama fails to amuse me, I won't continue with much enthusiasm. Why you have to concern Korean audience only when you have like a lot of other audience from the other side of the world? I agree with comments below (@Supersnazzy) that KBS should consider of getting reviews or feedbacks from international audience. If the drama aren't received well in Korea, then that doesn't mean we international audience hate it as well, unless proven otherwise. But, till now, most people who watched this gave good reviews and were shocked with KBS's 'ingenious' decision. I even felt bad for the staffs and actors that only knew this decision after it was announced, think how heartbroken they are now.

From a fan who's doing her best to find a time to sit properly and watch properly Beautiful Mind, I would like to thank all the staffs and actors of Beautiful Mind for such beautiful drama. You guys had done your best ^_^

Supersnazzy Jul 22 2016 11:29 pm KBS should do reviews from the internet or do surveys before reduce the number of episodes. Read those comments on websites the majority of the commenters giving the drama a good feedback. I feel bad because i don't want the casts think that we didnt like the drama while in vice versa we totally love it.I'm still pressed tho KBS will regret doing this stupid decision.

korean drama lover Jul 22 2016 11:11 pm this drama is so nice, but why kbs reduce episode? huhuhu

chchaps Jul 22 2016 10:21 pm why KBS just see rating from national watch?? cant their see online rating or many positive comments about this drama??!! i'm not live in korea, so mostly i watch drama via online!! i think it was such beautiful drama and i will sad if it hasnt end in original schedule :( hope the ending arent disappointed :"

Kh Jul 22 2016 9:11 pm Even if they have to reduce episodes .. It will remain the best medical drama currently offers .. and the wonderful epsoides will remain in the hearts of viewers .. So please have a nice moment's and be happy to all the moments of this work .. Thank you all actor's for your efforts for us ..fighting.. I'm one of the arab viewers and i like this drama from kuwait ..

Kara Jul 22 2016 7:48 pm @Stacy... I see why people are frustrated. Doctors and Beautiful Mind are at the same time. Doctors is not necessarily a bad drama, but I think so many people didn't even give Doctors a chance in South Korea. They picked the drama they would watch based off first perceptions, rather than quality. Which, yes that is their choice and decision... is just a shame... because some people are missing out on a truly great drama. Also, it's a shame that BM has to be canceled due to competition between Doctors and Beautiful Mind. I don't think the Olympics is the real reason. They knew the Olympics were going to happen a long time ago... and they had already scheduled this for 16 episodes. Also other shows are not cutting their episodes due to the Olympics. This is probably just an excuse, because of its low ratings.

@ Surii Jul 22 2016 6:59 pm It really makes me sad that an awesome drama like this one is being shortened because of low ratings. Everyone involved in this project must have been stressed. Aigoooo. TT

isminurina Jul 22 2016 3:05 pm Before this drama release I sceptic with plot and the gap age JH-PSD. But after I watching I really love this drama which make me laugh cause YongOh's act. Every episode more interesting and also literature about medical more more complex than drama Doctors.

Stacy Jul 22 2016 2:55 pm Shame on you who kept comparing Beautiful Mind to Doctors. Why be a hater to other drama. Some of their fans are watching Beautiful Mind also. We are hurt by KBS decision but they are hurt by some immature fans at here. I never watched Doctors but i knew their ratings. Its averaging 20%, so only 1/5 of korean population. Who are we to decide what the rest of them want to watch.Please now, positive comment only. Only support Beautiful Mind. There's not much episode left, we should cherish this drama while we can. Please respect other drama fans. Its ok if you dont enjoy other drama as much as Beautiful Mind but don't announce it at here, because to them it might sound desperate and defensive. Spread love to Beautiful Mind not hate to other drama.

XIIVX Jul 22 2016 2:28 pm After BM, I won't be watching KBS dramas for a while. I can't believe KBS is cutting the show due to low ratings but, they let other dramas that literally have little to no plot run on their network. Honestly, I have seen shows that are 20 eps and could be reduced down to 10-16 eps at max. I'm upset that that they tried to use the Olympics as an excuse to cut it short. I really feel for the writer, producers, and actors who have to see their show cut because of this. I hope the story can come together and not feel so rushed (I doubt it though).

Alexm Jul 22 2016 12:35 pm I don't usually comment but I must express that my heart hurts because I know now I will never experience the full true story the writers had written. My heart aches for the actors, actresses, and all involved/dedicated to this drama. This is an insult to them when they should be receving recognition and many accolades. Absolutely fantastic drama. I have been watching these dramas for almost seven years hunting for quality dramas and this one was a work of art in the making. It was a drama I should have remembered for years. Now all I remember is my sadness from it's shortening and disrespect it received.

I respect the individuals who love these dramas but when I see Yong Pal, Doctors, and many many more terrible rom-coms/popular dramas get high ratings over quality dramas like this... I don't even know how to express my disappoinment and disgust.

P.S. There are exceptions like My Love from the Star, Rooftop Prince, and more. These were wonderful imo and deserving of high ratings.

lovers Jul 22 2016 10:36 am Oh no they cut episode from 16 to 14 episodes only..cries :'( :'( so cruel!!!!

Andrea Jul 22 2016 9:24 am Aarrghhh crazy KBS... so cruel, it's such a great drama..we love it!!! Don't cut the eps please...

Vivivi Jul 22 2016 9:08 am @Sara so much agree with you

Nion Jul 22 2016 7:16 am This is good & warm drama. Why to cut it short. So sad. I am nailed to this from start. Unlike DOCTORS in SBS. This story have a depth. Looks like they prefer rom- com and fantasy. So bad.

Hanna Jul 22 2016 6:54 am i am so mad with kbs, this show is really great, and it deserve to have complete episode. i think korean just like cliche drama with love triangle, teacher and student loves, jealous friend etc. one thing that i really love about this drama is the scripts that make drama become more interesting beside good acting and good story line.

juuu Jul 22 2016 6:49 am When I saw the news, I just cried. How could they be so cruel. I love this drama. I never saw a better one ;(

alfiefluffy Jul 22 2016 6:26 am it's an excellent story and also a well written drama together with good actors who can portray their roles in the way we expect. it's really a shame that this will be cut short du to the rating!! I' m not a fan of doctors and I don't know if this should be compared to it. BM is one of the best series I have seen. fighting!!

sara Jul 22 2016 3:50 am I am disappointed with KBS how they could cut such a great drama only for low rating ,when DOS was airing SBS had same problem but they didn't cut their drama,they are disrespectful toward non Korean viewer who love this show and also all of crew of drama

nyor Jul 22 2016 3:25 am this drama is much more worthy to watch than Doctor's...there's a lot of lesson bout human behavior which we can understand..

Doctor's focuses on romance that isn't even fun to watch,the main leads doesn't have chemistry, they make the other girl so pathetic by making the two guys falls for PSH head over heels

Saskia Jul 22 2016 3:21 am I pray this whole day only hoping that it is all only a Hoax, but truth is always painful. I wish the production team don't choose KBS at first. Geez. Hate you KBS. It is really heart breaking. :"(

@koreandramalover(INDIAN) Jul 22 2016 2:47 am Hello KBS thanks for producing such great dramas i love this drama its bad ...that this drama is not getting any rating i always ;like the amazing acting of Jang Hyuk Park So-Dam is awesome in this drama

Luna Jul 22 2016 2:46 am I love this drama., the storyline the actor the theme was perfect I don't understand why korean people didn't watch it -_-;

janet Jul 22 2016 2:31 am it took me by surprise to hear that this masterpiece had to be ended sooner than planned for whatever reason.

But I'd like to think that of all reasons, low rating of this drama was not one of those.Because it is not the first KBSdrama which hasn't been appreciated and acknowledged by Koreans. I'd like refer you to Assembly, for instance. Another excellent drama with a disappointing rating.

anyhow, what's done is done! I'd bring myself to enjoy the rest of this amazing drama and support it till the last minute.

Mah Jul 22 2016 2:20 am KBS you really broked my heart.

Wini Jul 22 2016 2:17 am Dear all, i know it's a sad thing if the drama is shortened just because of bad rating, but can you guys please stop compare this with Doctors? and blame the rating because of Doctors?

Bianca Jul 22 2016 1:39 am how could they cut it to 14 episodes im literally breaking right now huhu this is such a good drama with really great characters im gonna wallow in sadness now

shahad Jul 22 2016 1:37 am this drama is so famous outside of Korea. This drama is AMAZING!!!!!!!! We love Beautiful Mind.

Artha Regina Jul 21 2016 11:25 pm My heart just broke into million pieces. KBS is so senseless. I'm soo effing mad right now!!!

MilWon Jul 21 2016 11:21 pm It is sad to hear that it is shorten. But, i have hope and faith that the writers will give us 4 amazing episodes. Lets keep the faith! I am surely will miss this drama,the casts dearly after it ends.

Ana Jul 21 2016 10:35 pm Beautiful mind it is very, very good drama - plot, acting, directing. KBS don't respect viewers, so I am not going to watch ther next drama.

Sara Jul 21 2016 10:00 pm sigh.. so they did cut the episode. Sooo heartbreaking .how i truly wish that we all could move to korea and make the rating higher... Huwaaaaaaaa!!!!! *crying angrily n crazily*

Saraanne Jul 21 2016 9:25 pm I'm enjoying both Doctors and BM. It is sad to know BM will get shortened since I really like this drama. But, as a fan of Doctors also, I'm extremely sad that some people here comparing and blame the success of Doctors to the fate of Beautiful Mind. There's no need to do that. Every people have different preferences. One's success does not lead to one's failure. Beautiful Mind is great drama and I hope that Jang Hyuk will keep excel as Lee Young Oh despite what happened.

Artha Regina Jul 21 2016 8:25 pm @prettysup seriously?!!! Nooooo!! KBS, you better not! Please don't ruin this drama! Its the BEST drama airing! How could you!!!

MilWon Jul 21 2016 8:11 pm Honestly, if this drama have 30 episodes or more, i will still watch it. this drama is like american series of House or Criminal Minds. every episodes were well-made and not boring at all. However, we are not with the power. since we cant do anything, lets continue to enjoy and support this beautiful drama to the end. with 4 episodes left, i hope everything will be tie nicely and it will always be a great memory in our heart and mind. Fighting , Beautiful Mind!

prettysup Jul 21 2016 7:41 pm KBS has announced that BM will be cut from 16 to 14 episodes. But I have faith in the writer that they will wrap up this beautiful story nicely. Looking forward to the remaining story. Fighting everyone!!

mylene Jul 21 2016 7:32 pm wow!!! one of the best medical drama i've watch, i will be looking forward to the next episode. i like the story and there was never a boring scene,, plus the fact that jang hyuk is one of my favorite actor.. this drama was underrated. so dont base the goodness of drama from its rank. i have been watching drama since immemorial and i can say that some of the best dramas were not ranked. i admit that i watched some dramas because my favorite stars were cast. and sometimes i got disappointed because the storyline was a mess. so if i were you do not just rely on the ranking, try to explore and watch other kdrama,, read some reviews, they will guide you to the best drama worth watching,,,

Ika Arianti Jul 21 2016 7:28 pm This drama is worth to watch,I don't know why it has such a low rating ,maybe it's about the gap of male and female lead?. The acting is great,every cast does their best,the story is well writyen ,and I love how the romance is not cheesy after all .Please don't cut the episode ,I think I will ruin the story.

Eka Jul 21 2016 6:32 pm This is a really good story k.The character of Lee young Oh reminds me of someone that ive met before while Gye jin sung is quite cute and kind.I Hope I can be like her. i like this drama because it give me something to learn so thank you very much to the production crew.

Anika J Jul 21 2016 6:31 pm This series is absolutely worth watching. Its well written with excellent cast and lead actor. For those who have an instagram we can flood message the official account of KBS2 and JH @ajincome to pour out our sentiments regarding this news of shortened episode.

Eva13 Jul 21 2016 5:17 pm this is the best medical and romance drama, doctors nothing to compare with it. i am so impressed with the writer. this is masterpiece. please don't shorten drama!!!! am writing this from Córdoba, Argentina

Hin Jul 21 2016 3:04 pm It's my favorite ongoing drama,, <3 the story, the acting and the cast are G.R.E.A.T ,, but 16 ep is really nothing for such a story, I really wanna watch it all the summer :'(

Audrey Jul 21 2016 2:41 pm Beautiful Mind is a mind blowing drama. Honestly i cant believe that it has low ratings. I like this drama and will continue to watch it till the end.

So please dont cut / shorten this drama...

JAC Jul 21 2016 1:43 pm Pardon! Shorten what and who? Beautiful Mind is the second best drama behind Five Enough comedy. You do not have the quality acting,directing, and writing that beautiful mind cast and production crew put together. Please let the show continue.

taz Jul 21 2016 1:31 pm love this drama .......... best so far... Please do not cut on the episodes.

I'm from the Caribbean ... enjoying to the fulliest.

Andrea Jul 21 2016 1:10 pm This is an extraordinary drama, very classy, very depth ,really appreciate this drama.. and I really recommend this drama, in my opinion this is what I call truly medical drama serial.. but unfortunately... what makes this drama so under rated, I think everyone gives good comments here, I'm so sad...so what can we do to make the rating goes up, this drama deserves to high rating. hopefully.... thank you so much for the team of BM..Keep Fighting!!! you all amazing!!!

JV Jul 21 2016 11:47 am There is depth in this drama that some of us really appreciate. Jang Hyuk all the way.

Maria Jul 21 2016 11:23 am I truly love this drama.i personally think that this drama is way better than doctors. I don't know why it has such a low rating. I love the chemistry between them. I don't want to talk bad about other dramas because I am also watching doctors but I think things have been to slow like get over with it and solve the issue. I wish that beautiful mind could have lots of episodes. I hope that they don't cut down the episodes. Beautiful mind has become one of my favorite dramas of 2016.!!FIGHTING!!

Tsu Jul 21 2016 10:47 am I don't want to compare the dramas, but I think Doctors is more famous because it has PSH and maybe because there's more romance. But Beautiful Mind, please, the balance between the suspense, romance and everything is lovely <3 Love it. The chemistry and everything. DAEBAK! xD <3

Tsu Jul 21 2016 10:44 am The acting, the story, the cast, EVERYTHING IS LOVE! <3 I don't understand these Koreans either (referring to Abrar's comment). The romance and the story line is amazing. JANG HYUK'S ACTING <3 Not everybody can play an emotionless character well. So Dam's acting is cute and lovely too <3 I don't understand why this isn't in the top ranks! I really really hope and pray BM gets more than 16 episodes <3 Absolutely love it.

Jangs Jul 21 2016 10:12 am Beautiful Mind could last upto 30 episodes or more. International fans are so into this series. We love to watch every bit of it and so curious about Dr. Lee Young Ohs life and his sweet happily ever after. There are SK dramas now a days that is so overrated regardless of not having a strong plot with fluffy/weak story line and unconvincingly trying hard romance...popularity without substance.

Panda27 Jul 21 2016 10:07 am Please don't cut the episodes

aya Jul 21 2016 8:57 am I love this drama, deep story with amazing actors. Please don't cut the episodes..

amna albahrani Jul 21 2016 8:56 am seriously they should have rating for the world wide this is not fare .... apparently most of Korean audience are teenagers or in ppl in their 20s so they are more attracted to young beautiful less talented actor/actress with boring empty drama while powerful excellent actors/actresses with deep drama are ignored -_- so sad and the rating is not a management for how good the drama is its only shows how much it is popular

Me ann Jul 21 2016 7:14 am Count my votes in ~please do not cut the episodes, this is one of Jang Hyuk's best dramas portrayal of character he plays. He always breathe life into his role with all his heart and passion. He is Korea s Top best actor. PD, KBS mgt, he deserves the top award.

mitchikoh Jul 21 2016 7:11 am Please KBS2 don't shorten the drama. We love it so much. Many of us here in dubai watching this drama.

jangmi Jul 21 2016 7:00 am this is the best medical and romance drama, doctors nothing to compare with it. i am so impressed with the writer. this is masterpiece. please don't shorten drama.

SylArt Jul 21 2016 6:48 am I just have to say that am totally disappointed with the kind of rating this drama is receiving. Seriously, am writing this from Nigeria and you just don't know how many people in my school that are watching this drama week-in-week-out. The last scene in episode 10 left me with loaded tears about to roll down. Seriously, apart from War of the Son, Entertainer, Jackpot and Descendant of the Sun (you can also say Uncontrollably Fond and maybe Task force), i can't find any K-drama this year that is totally worth your time and enjoyment than Beautiful Mind. Total out-pour of emotion by Jang Hyuk, you really can't find many actors that could have played that role better than him (even Lee Min Ho). I will be very furious if this drama is shortened for any reason whatsoever. Even if the Korean audience don't fancy it, i bet you a lot of fans around the world would prefer this drama to Doctors. I even would advice them to increase the episodes to 18 or 20 if possible. This is a must watch for all Medical drama lovers and any fan of good movies.

Myriam Jul 21 2016 6:24 am Donot cut non korean fans love it if you care about them :(

AnneBS Jul 21 2016 6:01 am I love the story as well as the acting of the male lead, but the female lead annoys me so much with her acting. I wish it was someone else.

jereline Jul 21 2016 4:48 am Please do not shorten the no of episodes to be aired...please...this is one of the best k-dramas i have watched so far...I'm watching it from India..

Best plot...skilled actors....waiting for next episode.

Joy Jul 21 2016 4:17 am This drama is a masterpiece. It leaves good feelings especially ep. 10. I wonder how Lee Young Go develops his feelings and how many people knows he gradually changes. So, I hope KBS won't shorten it. I really love this drama !!

sophiagarcia Jul 21 2016 4:02 am JH, you are the best, you have what it takes to do any roles. Faling in love with Dr. Lee. You are great the way you deal with your patients and emergency situation.

cha Jul 21 2016 3:06 am this drama is soooo good. It's underrated. All of the cast were good. Lee Young-o portray his character perfectly.

star Jul 21 2016 2:21 am Excellent drama ... One of the best as a Medical drama . + The strory it is interesting and attached me from ep 1 . Jang Hyuk Oppa always doing his best to present a great excellent dramas . Looking forard to see what will happen next .

anna Jul 21 2016 2:19 am please don't shorten this amazing drama. It's more atrractive than the other dramas like doctors. I really can't understand people who don't watch this awesome drama. I say one more time pleaseeeeee don't shorten this drama.

HeyHello Jul 20 2016 11:56 pm This drama is worth watching! The plot is thumbs up! I love the way of lee young oh develop his feeling to gye jin sang. Every episode of this drama makes me can't wait for the next episode. I can say this is one of the best medical drama ever. This drama teach us about the humanity, how a person who has been convicted can't feel anything begin to worrier and care to another.

This drama is recommended for who wants to review :)

Jun Jul 20 2016 11:37 pm Please don't cut the episodes.. I love this drama so much.. I love lee yong oh character.. even if this drama rating is not good, but many people abroad love this drama..

Jan Jul 20 2016 10:49 pm I love this drama! The story and Jang Hyuk's performance are phenomenal. KBS2 please keep this show for its entire run of 16 episodes. Beautiful Mind is a great drama with very skilled actors.

kaomy Jul 20 2016 9:42 pm Please don't shorten ‪#‎BeautifulMind‬

simpleminded Jul 20 2016 8:32 pm I'm really agree with the comment above. I don't really understand why some of people just watch the drama bcz of the actress or actor. Just bcz they hv the same time airing so this drama is underrated and get shorten??? This drama is much much better than the other drama that hv the same time aired. The actor and actress, and the most important the plot is interest and can't wait for the next ep. C'mon become a smart viewer.

Abrar Jul 20 2016 8:16 pm I don't really understand korean people. They are watching senseless,cheesy boring dramas because of some stars and this great drama with a very very good and deep story and with the best actor ever Jang Hyuk is underrated, i could cry ....

PLEASE KBS2, I beg you, dont cut the episodes, even though the korean people are not watching , I'm watching it from DUBAI just as many K-Drama Lovers over the world ..... THANKS !!!

reposting this comment because its really how i feel

mai Jul 20 2016 8:08 pm Where people find the news about this drama probably be shortern than 16??! I dont find it anywhere. Goshhh...i hope korean people would appreciate more this master peace medical drama. Try to watch this korean guys.. :)

If you a new viewer i gave you short summary: so come to watch! ^^

the plot is about a genius doctor who has psychological issue due to his father (not real father) made a mistake cutted one small part of his neural system during his childhood age surgery. When he was child, he was an orphan. so this mistake made him lose his emotion.he cant feel when he should laugh.cries.smile.love ect he is like dr frankenstein. At the moment this young lee yong oh got surgery from dr Dr lee gun myun, his real son past away with same desease, so he decided to adopt yong oh as his son.

Instead of tv audience but now dr lee yong oh still doesnt know he is an adoption child of his family m will be next issues

Btw because lee yong oh has no emotion he is being ridiculue n misunderstanding by his colleage even during his childhood ages. some of them adore him as genius but more People hates him, scared of him, and betrayed him, even suspect him as criminal.. someday a young woman detective came to him for a criminal case in his hospital. So the journey is start.. after he met miss detective he start react more warm n sometimes funny n looks start give his effort to find back his emotion,

some hospital issues will be the mind background. The show thrilled you realized that to be an honest people may not always right to choose but in strange way a right people always will be a winner at the end.

So the most attrqctive part from this drama is dr lee journey..how the cold genius foctor find back his emotion:laugh,cries,empathize,love..with miss detective indirectly support. He named this woman as his "wi-fi".

I recomended this,..suuper recomended!!!

prettysup Jul 20 2016 7:46 pm Even if it has only 4% viewership, this amounts to 500,000 people watching. KBS you cannot shorten a drama just like this!

Turhan Jul 20 2016 3:24 pm this drama is better than doctors, because when i watch the doctors getting borred but this is awasome, please dont cut the episodes

Nnar Jul 20 2016 2:30 pm I'm so in love with this drama and jst finised watching the lastest episodeee. They're getting greatt and I'm so torn right now! Knowing that this drama will be shortened!? Seriously, i'm a big fan of park shin hye but this drama isnt inferior at all!! Comparing to Doctors?! It kinda gives me a lot of reflections after watching Discrimination, the concept of normality-abnormality >> being the outsider, Medical ethics, how a pure mind/ logical mind works without sentiments, etc. I jst cant understand why others dont find it interesting?

If the mitacle is real, i would trade one of mine to this drama and have it complete all 16 episodes Pretty pleaseeeee! )';

anenne Jul 20 2016 1:48 pm I'm in love with this wonderful drama. The actors are great and the writing is so touching and beautiful. I can't wait for the next episode.

Juju Jul 20 2016 1:46 pm This drama is GREAT!! Especially with Jang Hyuk's acting WOW! The medical cases and mysteries in it are also very well written. I urge the network to please give this drama it's fair shot and give it better publicity!! This drama totally reminds me of House sans psychopath, and House MD. was one of the most successful shows of all time in it's genre. I 100% recommend this show.

Jangs Jul 20 2016 1:09 pm Jang Hyuk please don't ever stop acting! You are one in a million excellent actor who can excite and warm our hearts with an adorable and pleasing real life personality. Beautiful Mind has a world class caliber regardless of that so called rating in SK. Hoping that once again we can experience your magical tandem with Jang Nara...soon!

Sara Jul 20 2016 12:01 pm Whaatt??? Is it true? They gonna shortened this great drama??whats the problem. Its unfairrrr for us who watch this drama and always waiting for monday to come faster just to see YO n JS. Pleasee... They just start to feel each other. Let them having more scene together as loveydovey couple. Pleaseeeee!!! Im dying to see more of the couple romance scene after the 10th ep. Suddenly they want to cut the ep. I felt like ive been betrayeeedddd!! Huwaaaaa!!! ! Hope they are not gonna do it. But adding it will be more daebakkk!!! Hikhik

Atiq Jul 20 2016 11:53 am Only one thing I wanna say, I'm always waiting for this drama compared to the other dramas every week! I can't wait for the next episode!

Sakura Jul 20 2016 11:35 am This Drama is so damn.......DAEBAK

Abdoo19 Jul 20 2016 11:33 am Dr Lee Young O is really so amazing and somehow funny .... he really act the role so well ... he makes me laugh out loud when he was trying to listen to his patient in ep9 and then he gives up and said am not a doll to smile to you or religion man to hear you .... that was really funny .. and also in ep10 when the detective said : how should I feel now ... he answers her : I don't care it's your feelings :p ... I mean how could people miss so precious drama like this ... in my case I really made all my friends love this drama ... 90% of them were like boring and made quick judgement from the first episode so I convince them to just watch the second one ... and now they are totally addicted to this drama as much as I am...

Anika J Jul 20 2016 11:23 am Can't wait for their next wifi connection!!! They compliment each others character so well. You can actually feel the attachment between the lead actors excellent portrayal.

Bbpirate Jul 20 2016 10:57 am This drama is really good. The characters we're portrayed really well and it has a good storyline.. Regardless of the ratings, this drama should be recognize around the world. It reminds us to do the common good especially to help and appreciate people like Dr. Lee as normal.

sami Jul 20 2016 10:53 am Am i the only one think that "wi-fi" things on this drama is kinda cute and romantic? Wi-fi couples? i love this couple! Psychopat doctor and ms detective are the best medical drama couple ever. Dr lee conveying his doubtfull feeling with logics *fake analysis xd (it turn out as a loveydovey teasing) is so funy XD writernim is creative ha2 and Ms detective "naif" reaction on replied the teasing moment is also make me smile so wide lol Uhhh the last sc so awww.. could it be he would kiss the detective but later said he feel nothing like previous hugs issues?

praise Jul 20 2016 10:20 am What wrong with Korean viewers , this drama is wow , I hope the ratings increase

J Jul 20 2016 10:12 am I have to agree with everyone. This is the most underrated drama ever. The story plus the actors. Two thumbs up. I just hope the news about shortening the drama is not true.

Amelia Jul 20 2016 9:36 am This drama so good but underated compared with doctors this drama much2 better

Kara Jul 20 2016 7:58 am This is probably the most underrated drama ever! It is soooo good! It couple possibly become one of my top favorite dramas, if it does well till the very end. The first few episodes might not impress some viewers...and you might get annoyed at first by the female lead... but it gets better and better. You will not remain annoyed at the female lead for long... I'm growing to love her character. I love the depth this drama goes with societal issues. As of now... I give this drama a 5 star rating. People are missing out!

Lesley Jul 20 2016 7:46 am Well what can I say that hasn't been said!

Jiminie Jul 20 2016 7:36 am Nahh..i wonder why this drama is underrated.the storyline is amazing! People say i shouldnt compared it to Doctors..but sorry,cant help it. BM is way better and interesting than Doctors. I know its because psh is in the drama but well, jang hyuk is not bad at all. He is really amazing. I am now his fan

Kirahae Jul 20 2016 7:13 am This drama not cliche at all, I found that this drama is awesome ^^

Zheng Mei Lin Jul 20 2016 6:50 am I think this drama is good than another drama which have same medical theme. And this better than doctor. Just ignore the ratings! Good jod!!!

Peekaboo67 Jul 20 2016 6:04 am I really love this drama. Jang Hyuk is so natural and his acting being a person and a doctor without emotion was so convincing and he did an awesome job. Park So-Dam acting as a police officer and a support to Jang Hyuk another plus to this drama and all the complication they both are facing in solving each cases at the hospital was really interesting and great to watch. Cant wait for another new episode each week. I used to like the drama 'Doctors' but after watching both of them, I honestly think 'Beautiful Mind' is so much interesting and a much better drama and I never felt bored from watching it because each episode fills with so much interesting cases and the progress of Jang Hyuk to feel love for Park So-Dam. Cant wait to see more 'Wi-Fi' (ノ^о^)ノ

ruby Jul 20 2016 5:34 am "beautiful mind" indeed....i love the way the drama goes. it's really stirring, can't wait till next week. BEST MEDICAL DRAMA EVER!

vmarlany Jul 20 2016 2:46 am the rating is not honest, it can't describe how great this drama, ignore that rating. watch this make my emotion like roller coaster. it's not cliche story line like other medical drama. it's very touching and heart warming. thank you for the writer who wrote this beautiful story.

ps: this drama better than doctors, but many people prefer watch doctors because psh in it, i also prefer watch doctors at first, but then i watch this and fall in love in every episode with character and story line. i know i shouldn't compare both drama. but i must because i watch both, both of them is medical drama.

mamomei Jul 20 2016 12:40 am at first, i watched Doctors and love it. But along these 9th and 10th ep, I prefer watch this drama. i adore how Lee Young Oh develop his "feeling". The things called Wi-Fi is cute >.<.

Artha Regina Jul 19 2016 11:58 pm Omg, omg that last scene, I'm dying inside. And no preview, i'm so gonna die of curiosity! Can't wait for Monday!!!! Gahh

MilWon Jul 19 2016 11:11 pm This drama is like bringing us to a field trip at the land of emotions. At the early episodes, we can see/feel the creepiness, anger, curiosity, fierceness, and naivety. then, at the ep 6, all of us are introduced on the pain of betrayal, pain from being unaccepted, the feeling of defeated and at the end of ep 6, with all that pain and hopelessness, we are getting the feeling of hope through jin sang. then, the trip continues on the land of doubt which then switch on to the great feeling of rising up from the failure. and right now, we are on the land of laughter, happiness and a glimpse of love. plus, we get to feel embarassed and having squishy-squashy feeling seeing lee young o. i wonder where will be visiting next?

pipo Jul 19 2016 11:02 pm Recognizing as best kdrama ever with theme medical genre - to the world (international fans)

Good job!

emilia Jul 19 2016 10:59 pm i am really enjoy to watch episode 10, this is one of best kdrama this season so far. Ive watch 38task force two, these 2 kdrama are very worthy to watch.

definitely these two are not romance drama, like most kdrama theme. It is surprise me how the story drag me to watch and addicted without selling romantic scenes.

i feel more smarter or more human after watch this kind drama haha, very realistic ones. Episode 10 is so tearful my heart, and is like show u how the true life surround you that you never realizes. Based on the script i can feel that dr lee also has same experience (abusive experienced with his step mother)

and next!???? It will be so interesting since he start sense empathy and start to like the woman detective. Cant waittt!!??

Captain Levi Jul 19 2016 10:45 pm Screw public audience...This drama is the best.Senseless people going after cheesy dramas...

Doctor theme Jul 19 2016 10:29 pm I watched good doctors, a few episodes of doctor stranger. And there is no doubt that beautiful mind is unique in the way the patient characters are developed. In good doctors, the kids are cute, in doctor stranger, the patients have a 2 minutes screen time and random lines. In Beautiful Mind, my heart is breaking for the patients, they only say 5 or 6 lines, and I just get so teary

Claudia Jul 19 2016 8:44 pm Best drama of 2016!!!!

Migthy Thor Jul 19 2016 8:41 pm OMG! it's now about LOVE, LOVE, LOVE (",)

I am so thrill to see how the emotions of Dr. Lee Young-O develops and Detective Gye Jin-Sung getting excited . . . the wi-fi thing is so cute (",) but of course I am still disappointed with the ratings, It's now episode 9 and still Beautiful Mind is "NR" . . . why is that? Is there something wrong with the general public audience?

Anyways, to the production, cast, crew, personnel, staff and especially to writer: Kim Tae-Hee, Director: Mo Wan-Il, actors Jang Hyuk, Park So-Dam, Yoon Hyun-Min and Heo Jun-Ho, network producer KBS 2 = PLEASE take note that this is truly a World Class caliber story and a GREAT drama.

FIGHTING (",)

Toby Jul 19 2016 7:59 pm I love JH...his skills are so amazing, i minute I'm crying for him, another i'm laughing with him, then I'm pissed at him and then I'm head over heels altogether....Beautiful Mind just got to my top 10 Kdramas for 2016. Good actors, wonderful delivery, great storyline....the ratings? just dumb! i mean every episode is like a full movie for me with so much emotion, lessons etc Keep it coming Beautiful Mind!

Common Jul 19 2016 3:36 pm How come I have to wait a week again??? I really want Monday come fast. Young Oh and Jin Sung are cute. They're so adorable. Love this drama so much....

@Scarlet : I feel it too. I started watch some expression in Young O's face when his fiance betrayed him. I saw slightly tear in his eyes. Just slightly, like it wasn't there. It's a prove that Jang Hyuk is a great actor. he can show emotionless face but we can feel his emotion.

DramaQueen Jul 19 2016 3:22 pm Ahhhhhh episode 10 OMG <3 <3 <3

pinuts Jul 19 2016 1:58 pm I really do love JH. His skills as an actor is amazing. This ratings debacle just shows you how much sheeps are easily lead astray. So many other streaming services pushing mediocre drama and blowing up people feeds with how great such and such is in this drama. Right now this drama is just sooooo much better than lets say Doctors and Dots.

Israa Jul 19 2016 12:48 pm This drama is much more excited and way more better than other doctor drama are published at the same time!! Why is the rating so weird?!!

Mari Jul 19 2016 11:43 am Tbh This drama is so underrated and wayyy better than doctors

Quel Yap Jul 19 2016 11:18 am This drama is so underrated. This is much better than the other medical drama aired at the same time which is getting so much attention just because of the actors popularity.

Nour Jul 19 2016 10:39 am a great drama ,,weird rating !!

i love beautiful mind Jul 19 2016 10:20 am after i watched raw episode 10, eventhough i don't understand korean language but i want to yell "how can i wait to ep 11, ya ya ya :((". The episode 10 deabak!!!

nene Jul 19 2016 10:18 am another enjoyable drama to watch.

Scarlet Jul 19 2016 9:03 am Do you all realized that there is a change in looks and vibes of jang hyuk? Previously, he is all dark,serious with creepy vibes. His face is also a bit dim. Now, as he slowly try to change,i can see that he is shining with friendly vibe and i can feel softness in his face. I can only amaze with jang hyuk acting. A great acting indeed.

Jane Chung Jul 19 2016 8:58 am Such a great story and wonderful acting!!! Can't stop watching!!!! Bravo! :)

Artha Regina Jul 19 2016 4:42 am Just watched ep. 9, another solid episode!

japag Jul 19 2016 3:51 am omg (smile until both end ears) park so dam and jang hyuk chemistry . really . anticipating for every episodes. (heart eyes)

Saras Ayu Jul 19 2016 3:19 am Actually, I really hate to watch drama related to hospital, operation, etc, but since there's Park So-Dam so I start to watched it. Also this is my first time watch Jang Hyuk act and now i'm really into this. This drama is daebak! Currently I watched Ddandarra (I watched it since there's Ji Sung) but i just can't get the chemistry between Ji Sung & Hyeri, I also knew there's a gap between Jang Hyuk & Park So-Dam age but I really get the chemistry between them. I'll do whatever it takes to promote this drama, I don't care about the rating but all I know this drama is a hit! Keep fighting for all Beautiful Mind team, we love you!

Maryu Jul 19 2016 1:06 am Man, Jang Hyuk is really a legend! God, i want him! This drama is so addictive! So intense, and really good acting from all the actors. I can't even think anymore other than this drama! Never thought i found myself fangirling over this drama and Jang Hyuk! Haha! Screw korean viewers who dont watch this masterpiece!

Wasabijung Jul 19 2016 12:58 am This drama may currently not get the big ratings. But it will be appreciated and recommended in the long run. Love all the casts. Thanks production team for their hard work and dedication.

Jane Jul 18 2016 10:58 pm Amazing amazing and superb amazing drama so far, worth your time to watch! Always look forward for Jang Hyuk's modern drama after Fated to Love You.

Common Jul 18 2016 10:32 pm Glad to read all positive comments. This drama rating counted for SK viewers only. So it doesn't represent global viewer. Maybe, this season Korean viewers want to see a drama with lovey dovey storyline. Just support this drama guys!!

For all drama crews and casts, KEEP FIGHTING! You did a great job here. You make me want Monday come faster every week.

BM! Jul 18 2016 10:24 pm Ep. 9 still NR! Unbelievable! Man, i just want to throw everything at korean viewers!!!!! What is wrong with them!!! Srsly!

Rara Smith Jul 18 2016 10:10 pm @laurel: its the patient from ep. 2 that held scalpel

Rara Smith Jul 18 2016 9:43 pm This drama may be so underrated, but hell who cares about the rating, it's just a number. Hands down the best medical drama of the season. I enjoy watching excellent performance from the casts, let alone Jang Hyuk. This show has good directing, tight writing, and of course stellar acting. Big shoutouts to everyone involved in making the show so wonderful!! <3

Migthy Thor Jul 18 2016 9:23 pm I am really getting upset with the ratings. It's now episode 8 and still Beautiful Mind is "NR" . . . why is that ?!?!? Is there something wrong with the general public audience ?!? I mean for the many comments on this site I read that they are all positive, so why this kind of rating?

Anyways, to the production, cast, crew, personnel, staff and especially to writer: Kim Tae-Hee, Director: Mo Wan-Il, actors Jang Hyuk, Park So-Dam, Yoon Hyun-Min and Heo Jun-Ho, network producer KBS 2 = PLEASE take note that this is truly a World Class caliber story and a GREAT drama.

FIGHTING (",)

laurel Jul 18 2016 8:53 pm The actor that plays the robber/patient in the 9th episode, where have I seen him before? Who is he?

Lolo0323 Jul 18 2016 8:51 pm Still no kiss writernim......

Lolo Jul 18 2016 8:11 pm Writernim...still no kiss...we are at episode 10 tomorrow.....please....jh opppppppa...:)

motherchucker Jul 18 2016 7:30 pm As expected, Jang Hyuk never fails me. This drama is sooo goood! I can't believe that this brilliant show is so underrated! Love our OTP, tho, they're so cute together and the way he flirts with GJS makes me smile ear to ear. More of these two please writernim <33

al Jul 18 2016 5:22 pm The story is unique and complex but well portrayed by the actors. I find it intriguing and wondering what will happen next. Very good drama. Will keep watching.

sara Jul 18 2016 12:34 pm arrgghhh!!! so frustrating. i watch it RAW end up not understand anything. but i reaally hope that YO end up with JS. please please pleaseeee writer nimm make them together!!! i really thank u a lotttt! mmmuahhxx!!!! <3 <3 <3 ^^,

Common Jul 18 2016 9:48 am @abdoo19 Yes, actually this drama is an adaptation from beautiful mind movie. but I haven't watch the real beautiful mind movie yet.

Abdoo19 Jul 18 2016 8:44 am This drama is somehow remember me of the russel crow's movie : beautiful mind ... they both suffer from understanding feelings so they use their brain to try understand them. a man with beautiful mind could he have a beautiful heart it's really amazing to watch some dramas with this kind of messages not the usual pink messages

DramaQueen Jul 18 2016 7:21 am I'm a biiiiiiiiiiig fan of the show , I can't believe it's not getting as much coverage as the other shows currently airing .

this beautiful mind will touch your soul Jul 18 2016 6:14 am I have seen many kdramas . But the romance in this drama is quite interesting and I love the way he predict other peoples feelings by their body language. Jang Hyuk you are best ever .

Artha Regina Jul 18 2016 3:22 am I basically can't stand medical dramas. But this one is exceptional. After watching ep 1, i'm instantly hooked with this show. It makes my brain works, and i love it. I find it really intense, intriguing, and the cast is amazing, even the vilain. It makes my monday even better. I hope the rating will improve. Justice for Beautiful Mind.

I love beautiful mind Jul 17 2016 10:26 pm @prettysup: me too, i can't continue watch doctors, lucky romance film after i watched beautiful mind.

prettysup Jul 17 2016 8:22 pm This show is seriously so addictive! I cannot even bear to continue watching the other shows which I was watching initially because my mind is so filled with this one.

ajuma Jul 17 2016 7:20 pm I guess most korean viewers doesnt like this kind of heavy drama as we can see in the ratings... i even have to rewatch so i can understand fully some of the episodes... but Jang Hyuks acting is awesome as always and with his oozing sexiness who cant be hooked up? Loving it! As well as in this kind of set up where the leading lady is able to take care and in a way protect this emotionally and mentally sick leading man?just loving it...

JAC Jul 17 2016 6:32 am Iris II actor has done it again. Love love this drama acting.writing, and directing. Great camera shots also. Fighting you lead to get an award.

jaime Jul 17 2016 3:28 am i glad that consensus are that the drama deserves much more in terms of ratings. The drama is very intense and jang hyuk is just, awesome! i really hope more ppl will pick this drama up! (currently at ep 8)

Sunny Jul 17 2016 1:49 am I almost always start dramas in which I know at least one of the main actors. For this I hadn't watched either of the two main actors' dramas. Not regretting at all! :'D <3

Tsukoai Jul 17 2016 1:46 am I don't understand why this isn't the top drama of the season. Honestly it is SO GOOD. I was only watching Doctors from this season when someone told me to watch this too, saying this is better than Doctors, I was like 'Meh, sure sure.' But after watching it, on the third episode I started regretting starting this drama when it is still ongoing. IT IS SO SO GOOD HONESTLY I LOVE IT! I partially skimmed through the first episode but then I got so hooked on the next episodes and now I really am impatiently waiting for the next episodes. AMAZING! WOW! <3

swan Jul 16 2016 11:11 am OMG imagine if yoo ah in played it dayummmnn

janet Jul 16 2016 6:23 am I really admire every thing about this drama. And after reading the comments on this site, I am happy that there are those who appreciate this kind of theme as well. As for Jang Hyuk, I am his fan after ThankYou. He never disappoints me whatsoever and I believe the Dr. Lee jr role was just written for him. I cannot think of any actor but him who could portray an emotionless character in such an emotional way!!!

Thank you KBS group, production team and whoever involved.

Anika J Jul 16 2016 5:50 am Its SK rating, international audience are paying attention and dedicated to this great series with a not so typical plot/story line with excellent lead actors. Jang Hyuk and So Dams chemistry is interesting so far but not as magical as with Jang Nara.

suree Jul 16 2016 4:52 am This is a best series, good lead, good plot, JH & Sodam I live you and don't care about the rating.

Obet Jul 15 2016 9:25 pm The plot thickens for this medical drama. Consistent good acting for all cast. Jang Hyuk was superb with his emotionless expression. But i think he will learn to feel as in Episode 7.

i love beautiful mind Jul 15 2016 9:06 pm waiting next ep and reading comment in the page day by day!!!

Ayusher Jul 15 2016 5:02 pm Can't believe these rating how can a good drama, good plot, good lead have these low rating. ...these drama Is perfect for JH I don't know why they don't offer the main lead to him first I think no one can play the role perfect like him even though I like Yoo ah_in and LJS

Awesome Jul 15 2016 2:27 pm I keep rewatching it. I haven't done that since IHYV and Faith. I'm not sure what I'm into. But I'm definitely into this drama

lian Ringkuzan Jul 15 2016 8:40 am Excellent drama. I didn't know I would really love this drama. I don't care about the rating. Not the current best, but, it's the best story-writing.

kdot Jul 15 2016 4:46 am Yeah right who cares about the ratings. I find this drama engaging and entertaining. I bet my two dollars on it. Young-oh is starting to fall in love w/Jin-sung. Can't wait for next week.

Starstruck Jul 15 2016 4:22 am Man, that ost is stuck on my head!

Hyukie Jul 15 2016 3:56 am Best medical drama ever! Tumbs up for the cast (esp. Jang Hyuk), writernim, and the director!

pol Jul 15 2016 2:39 am For medical drama, this is very Recommeded drama, very good and details. The writernim must already have some research to write such detail medic conversation on the scene. Forget the NR rate..this is actually not ordinary drama not many people watch it bc they dont understand the art of the story, have a litle bit heavy plot but i believe the author will add more romance. The cold doctor and the woman police romance interesting to watch. not many korean drama has the plot like this..so i like this one.

Kdrama Fan Jul 15 2016 1:10 am I don't care about the ratings. Congratulations to all the staff and crew, actors, director and most of all to the writer Mr. Kim Tae Hee. You are genius! This is a masterpiece.

Kdrama Fan Jul 15 2016 1:06 am I don't care about the ratings. Congratulations to all all the staff and crew, actors, director and most especially to the WRITER. You are genius. This drama is a masterpiece.

Frankenstein Jul 15 2016 1:02 am While im waiting for the next episodes, i find myself rewatching this show over and over again. Show, what did you do to me!!! Monday, please come faster!

Kdrama Fan Jul 15 2016 1:02 am What happened this is a genius story. I hope its rating will soar high. This is a masterpiece. Congratulations especially to the writer. You are genius.

Beautiful Jul 14 2016 11:56 pm Such a great drama, great plot, great actors. Lately, I have been disappointed by Korean dramas, I usually stopped at episode 1. For Beautiful mind, I made it to episode 8 and can't wait for the next episode! I love the drama. Thank you for producing such a great drama!

bsb Jul 14 2016 11:26 pm "NR" really?!!!! This masterpiece is soooooo underrated!!

Twinkletata Jul 14 2016 8:31 pm I'm glad Lee Jong Suk declined the role. JangHyuk is just beyond perrrrfect for the role. This drama is starting to grow on me. It's beautiful and mind-blowing at the same time.

heartfilia Jul 14 2016 7:07 pm @Common yeah, i understand that the writer wants to show us that human, no matter how principled or morally they are, can make the wrong decision. they can chose the wrong path, though they have the full knowledge that it is wrong because they choose to hang on to the rope of hope. but, i wish he will realised it sooner that he made the wrong choices and not fall deeply in the darkness. i want JS and LYO to save him and not just forsake him. he needs someone to slap on his face so that he know the hope that he hold on is not the truth. i think it is more beautiful to see.

Lilium Jul 14 2016 6:48 pm C'mon guys, there's no need to categorically lash out at SK viewers. There are many who like the show. But those of us who have been watching K dramas for a while know that this type of shows aren't popular with the TV watching demographic in SK. It's the sort of show that international viewers tend to gravitate towards.

It's a shame, yes... because it is a well-written drama with a bleak and yet heartwarming unpredictability.

Cutthroat Jul 14 2016 5:25 pm Yes, they're (korean viewers) at loss they aren't watching this masterpiece! Stupid koreans, they're just love light and cheesy drama.

esram Jul 14 2016 3:05 pm international fans love this drama...korean viewers loves stupid dramas like Descendants of the Sun ...

only 16 episodes..:(

Jiminie Jul 14 2016 11:06 am Why it is underrated..i love this drama so much.the storyline is so unexpected.i tought lee yeongho's father is the evil one.lol..eventhough i barely know the cast ( i only know jang hyuk), they dont disappoint me. Cant wait for the next episode!!

Cutthroat Jul 14 2016 10:19 am Imo, this is the best drama compared to all the current ongoing drama in korea

Common Jul 14 2016 9:01 am @heartfilia : I know how you feel. But, in some point the writer nim want to show us how people change. they change because of their pain and hope. and I see it dr. hyeon eventhough I got little bit disappointed. in the bright side, dr. hyeon's change give a natural way to put jin sung and young o together. ^^

Joob Jul 14 2016 7:35 am I really love this drama and would recommend as well. Cannot wait to watch next episode!

prettysup Jul 14 2016 1:37 am Highly recommended if you are looking for a drama that tugs at your heartstring, evokes your thinking, questions your prejudice, yet makes you smile and cry at the same time. Beautiful drama.

Angie Jul 14 2016 12:51 am Omg, just so amazing. I usually stopped at episode 1 for Korean dramas now, I have been highly disappointed with the last Korean dramas out, but for this one I'm at episode 8 and waiting for the next episode. Amazing plot, actors and actresses, OST. I love love love this drama!

none of your beeswax Jul 13 2016 7:31 pm This drama is disappointingly underrated. The plot and character development is both intriguing and vastly superior in comparison to the rest of the ongoing current korean dramas. Jang Hyuk's role as Lee Young is probably his best performance thus far in his career and the way the events weave themselves into a grand, suspenseful, and pulse-throbbing story is amazing.

The reason why the rating might be so low is because the poster and synopsis themselves are marketing the drama as some melancholic-turned-hopeful romance when it is much more than that. The demographic of romantic watchers are put down by this appeal and thus give it an unjustifiable rating.

heartfilia Jul 13 2016 7:12 pm Oh writer-nim, why, why you need to do that?why make dr hyeon do that? he really not deserved to be a villain in this story. he is one of the most reliable dr in that hospital. how can you destroy his life writer-nim!hahaha.. dr hyeon, please come to your senses. just like jinsung have faith in you, me too, putting a great faith in you.Please come back, dr hyeon seok-joo!

matsurika Jul 13 2016 10:23 am @kamikaze the song is Dirt by Bernard Park

i love everything about this drama the cast, the twisted plots, the ost..simply amazing but sadly underrated and underappreciated by korean viewers as it seen in the ratings.

Fida Jul 13 2016 10:22 am Omo! Underrated?! This is very irritated me

Sam Jul 13 2016 8:33 am I love this drama...outstanding performance by lead actor.... why ratings are so low...I think every good drama should enjoy professional success....fighting BM..

Sasha Jul 13 2016 8:09 am OMG, in the preview for the next episodes, Young Oh give a hug to Jin Sang. Kyaaa! I love this drama very much! It's underrated because the story is quite confusing. Me personally have to watch it twice to understand. But the story is brilliant, I think better than Doctors. Not a cheesy drama. Thumbs up for the writers, actors and the director!

dramakid Jul 13 2016 7:59 am u guys should stop putting down Doctors. we should just enjoy BM. I went to Doctor's asianwiki and people are all talking about the drama. but here,all u guys ever talk about is how BM is better than Doctors,how Doctors is so overrated,and cliché. can't we just enjoy BM without putting down Doctors? I really don't want fanwars. BM is definitely becoming more popular with international fans despite the low rating,and that's a giving.

unnai pol oruvan Jul 13 2016 7:29 am Father character was outstanding in the flashbacks. Hang hyuk performance adds nice touch to the story.

Common Jul 13 2016 6:35 am just watched episode 8, and can't wait for the next. the love line between the lead built naturally. not too cheesy. LOVE IT very much! Really don't understand why its underrated...????

Anyway, I'll support this drama. FIGHTING!!!!!

205 Jul 13 2016 4:18 am That scene at the gym tho. That girl is being humiliated by him. Lol.

Mio Jul 13 2016 4:12 am I feel this drama is a little bit underrated, personally it is my number 1 drama of the season for many reasons: the plot is well thought, the characters feel more human and now a developement in young oh and Jin sung's relationship can't ask for more, I really love it so far

nana Jul 13 2016 2:59 am In this episode, Young Oh began to care about Jinsang. It was cute. I can't wait ep 9 :(

TeLea Jul 13 2016 1:57 am This drama is clearly one being overlooked and it is far more compelling than Doctors. The acting by the main characters is excellent and the chemistry building between them is touching while the story line is solid and well-written. One of the better dramas available...don't get the low ratings at all! Love this drama.

Lilium Jul 13 2016 1:40 am This drama has the potential to be one of the best this year. It's been just stellar so far. A medical mystery which has intelligent things to say about fathers and sons and what it means to be human. On top of that we have the amazing and ever-reliable Jung Hyuk who must be one SK's greatest actors, giving us a sympathetic multifaceted performance.

The ratings are no reflection of the quality of this drama.

Annika Jul 13 2016 12:14 am Very good drama - like american ER in old good times. It's about humanity.

sophiagarcia Jul 12 2016 11:56 pm JH although most of the people around you are hostile against you. He is a very good actor, pitting talent against senior actors. Exciting plot, hope they will sustain until the end.

KAMIKAZE Jul 12 2016 11:27 pm Does anyone know the title of the song ending in ep8? Or is it not released yet? I'm guessing it's also by Bernard park?

Beanie Jul 12 2016 10:45 pm I prefer this drama over #doctors

heartfilia Jul 12 2016 9:45 pm Beautiful drama is simply amazing. this drama is really challenging in terms of logics, emotions and curiosity. This drama is like they bring all of us to ride their train and in their train instead of enjoying natures, we are offer to see and enjoy the beautiful and dark parts of humanity as well as our emotions. in the ep 7, i really like how the show try to shed some lights on the doctor's and patient's emotions.

but what brings this drama to an A level is surely jang hyuk brilliant acting! Fighting Beautiful Mind!

red Jul 12 2016 8:46 pm wow,,ep 8, what a reversal..great drama,,watch it, surely you'll anxious to wait until next week

sam Jul 12 2016 8:05 pm Seriously BM is the one of the best series for me this year. Jang Hyuk is so incredibly talented. I feel so sorry for the ratings. Is there any way to tell the channel or the people involved in the series that how much we love BM? Guys we should also comment on the official youtube channel of kbs drama. Tell them that they are doing an awesome job. BM fighting.

i love beautiful mind Jul 12 2016 7:46 pm Finally, the film's rating has risen again (4,3) I hope the film continue rising until the last ep. I could not sleep after watching the raw ep 8. beautiful mind fighting!!!

TMT Jul 12 2016 6:51 pm Its not rated in top 20 in Korea but it sure as hell very highly rated from international audiences.

TMT Jul 12 2016 6:48 pm Though no show is perfect but this one is so good. Highly recommended for those looking for something different non generic and more mature audiences or those who prefer intelligent drama that require thinking. Episode 8 make you laugh, suspense, thrill and involves so many themes. It has its weakness but its strength does a good job at compensating for it.

English Rose Jul 12 2016 1:07 pm This DRAMA is one of the best for 2016.. I just cant believed Koreans does not find it brilliant, infact this is way BETTER than its Rival drama, the one takes the rating.

205 Jul 12 2016 12:28 pm Man. Everyone, esp. Korean viewers should watch this drama. It's really really good. The acting, the plot, and everything is such a gem.

pam Jul 12 2016 11:55 am excellent drama love this drama

rapmonmoniemon Jul 12 2016 11:19 am In ep 8 the gym scene play BTS -run. YEAH. My heartu

Abdoo19 Jul 12 2016 10:52 am let's all stand a moment for those who doesn't watch this drama... beautiful mind is really a beautiful drama

Namu Jul 12 2016 5:53 am Why is the rating so low

anan Jul 12 2016 5:53 am Today we will get to see JinSung playing jokes with YoungO..'Are you really Lee YoungO?' ...cute.. And I think we get to see YoungO talking on mobile phone for first time (I think). Now he actually has someone and things to share❤️

anan Jul 12 2016 5:20 am Too bad about the rating, we need a miracle to turn the rating around. Really like watching YoungO and JinSung.

Yura Jul 12 2016 4:46 am This drama is AWESOME.. I can't wait episode 8.. The story is interesting.. I'm really addicted to this drama..Lee Young Oh saranghaeeee..

ochypurba Jul 12 2016 3:13 am This drama is so great! the actors and actresses acting was so good and I can't wait to watch every episode. Jang Hyuk emotion in this drama is four thumbs up. :)

prettysup Jul 12 2016 1:48 am Beautiful Mind is seriously so good.. Jang Hyuk deserves a daesang for this role.

Elvie Jul 11 2016 11:42 pm I really like this drama. The emotion of the actor is superb. I can't wait for the next episode...

sophiagarcia Jul 11 2016 10:49 pm Say your piece and we will say ours. There is no need to persuade watchers and haters, they will watch want they want and hate what they hate no matter what you say.

I love beautiful mind Jul 11 2016 10:10 pm "Yo! I think others will be discourage to watch it if most of you here drag the other drama down. Instead you should discuss why this drama is a MUST WATCH and its unique characteristics so you can persuade watchers and not haters. This is one of the best drama i have watched. Its intriguing awesome the whole time. The actor is so GREAT in portraying his character, the story is one of a kind i hope he wins best actor of the year!" @More of this please Me too, i really love this film, i can't wait the next ep.

sophiagarcia Jul 11 2016 9:40 pm Now here again enjoying every episode. Too bad, I could not even get half the episode of the other one because it bores me a lot. I think the titles for the two should be interchanged. LOLsss

yujin Jul 11 2016 4:38 pm This drama is really interesting and daebak. Eventho at the first time I didn't interested in it. But I'm never disapointed to decide watching this. Aaargh. Janghyuk ajushi is awesome!!!>___< I fall in love so much with the storyline. But,sadly according to the rating, this drama is so underrated. Uh why??? T__T I'll keep looking forward every week to see the progress of the story and keep supporting them. Beautiful Mind, fighting!!!

nene Jul 11 2016 12:57 pm This drama is getting better and better every week.

More of this please Jul 11 2016 11:30 am Yo! I think others will be discourage to watch it if most of you here drag the other drama down. Instead you should discuss why this drama is a MUST WATCH and its unique characteristics so you can persuade watchers and not haters. This is one of the best drama i have watched. Its intriguing awesome the whole time. The actor is so GREAT in portraying his character, the story is one of a kind i hope he wins best actor of the year!

Migthy Thor Jul 11 2016 9:01 am This medical drama is well thought of and well researched. It's an appeal to thinking, logical and intelligent viewers. It may not contain much of entertainment value but in terms of informative and intellectual aspect this drama is definitely one of the BEST! The continuous battle of ambition, pride, power, fame and money in this drama is relentless. It's every episode, very scene counts a lot. There is also a good balance and combination of ignorance and intelligence among the characters. The writer and director are so genius that they can keep the story always on the edge of mystery and anticipation. Jang Hyuk, Park So-Dam, Yoon Hyun-Min, Park Se-Young, Heo Jun-Ho and all the cast are really doing a great and brilliant performance! It mat not rank in the survey but this is definitely an MUST SEE drama!

Hilda Jul 10 2016 10:45 pm Ilove Beautiful Mind as much as I love Doctors. Rather than compare the drama, i prefer enjoy both of it. I admire Lee Young-O so much. He has a very strong character with high intellegence, and he isn't easy to be bullied. I'm waiting for his revenge to the bad guys in the hospital. Oh, the only thing that I dont really like is the female lead, although it is not a big deal for me :D

Hannah Villa Jul 10 2016 1:21 pm WAY BETTER THAN DOCTORS. But it wouldnt be fair to compare both because Doctors has a love story-medicine feel to it, whereas Beautiful Mind has this Mystery/Crime-Medical genre. But overall, this one's really gripping, especially to the experienced k-drama fan who's had enough love story plots for the rest of their life.

CuddlesGirl Jul 10 2016 10:12 am This drama Beautiful Mind is daebak! It's FAR more intense and interesting than the over-inflated Doctors, which is boring and predictable. I highly recommend it. Yes, don't pay attention to ratings (I see this website isn't even listing them), there have been many dramas in Korea that got only fair ratings but they were excellent shows. Healer, for instance, only averaged 7 to 8% ratings throughout but it was a huge hit around the world on the streaming sites. Hard to explain why Koreans watch one show more than another, it often has nothing to do with quality but with a certain star who is doing something out of the ordinary, or it matches a current news story they followed, or they succumbed to a big publicity campaign. Ratings are only ONE factor you should consider when choosing to watch a show. Other factors are far more important.

haneyna Jul 10 2016 7:10 am speechless,,,,, <3 fallin love with this drama... watch this everyone!! vote for this drama please!!! reward them!!! thank you for this beautiful drama. tell me who can challenge jang hyuk...? nobody..... he's the one.

Zuhura Jul 10 2016 6:53 am It's wonderful drama specially the actress her acting is amazing &she z cute

Zuhr Jul 10 2016 6:44 am Iz really a good drama the plot and everything else is really amazing I can't wait next episode

ronak Jul 09 2016 1:09 pm the rating is not important , there are many korean really good dramas with low ratting , and beautifull mind is one of the best dramas that I ever seen in my life .... jang hyuk play his roll very excellent I think every one shuld watch it

jgugsu Jul 09 2016 6:44 am i take that last one back, i'm not a noona....he's a year older than me (yasss)

Obet Jul 08 2016 9:54 pm I love this medical drama. Story is great and I admire Jang Hyuk for superb acting. His facial expressions really show all the emotions. Can't wait for the next episodes.

If NR means it did not rate in top 20 shows in Korea, I'm shocked that it is not popular among Koreans. They are missing a good show.

Common Jul 08 2016 2:29 am I just watched episode 6, and I can feel how lonely young oh's life. Everyone looked him as a monster, even his dad. the person that he want to love, betrayed him. he want to experience a love, but no one there to help him. it makes me in tears. I watched this episode three times, and everytime make me more sad. LOVE Jang Hyuk acting so MUCH.

Sometimes I get disappointed with Korean viewer, bexause theres a lot drama with great story and acting skill that have lower rating. hope it getting better for Beautiful Mind. :-)

Eevee Jul 08 2016 2:09 am I love jang HYUK so much __< and I love the small comedic moments!

One of these nights Jul 07 2016 10:33 pm Although I have been seeing generally positive reviews about "Beautiful Mind" I have been seeing some negative reviews about Park So Dam.

If this is your first time watching her act, then you can't really judge her acting based on this one drama. She won the Best New Actress at the Baeksang Awards for the movie "The Black Priests". She did an AMAZING job in that movie and also in "The Silenced."

So Dam is more famous for her movies and BM is only her second drama, so please don't be harsh on her. I will agree that the character she was given to portray is a mess, but I do not blame it on her acting rather the writing itself. Her character from the beginning was a mess and unrealistic (traffic cop can do whatever she wants...?).

Personally, I'm enjoying the drama so let's help support it rather than hurt it! Hwaiting Park So Dam and Jang Hyuk!

Jerry Jul 07 2016 5:05 pm I've watched many Korean Drama's and this is one of the best! Jang Hyuk does an outstanding job of acting. I have seen him any other drama's and I have never seen a poor acting performance from him. I don't even understand why they asked two other actors before him. It's obvious the part has written for him and only him. I normally wait for the DVD and buy it, but, got hooked immediately from the start. I still have 14 more episodes to go and wonder, how many more times will he be falsely accused and/or fired. Thur six (four times accused and fired once)?

Mariah Jul 07 2016 4:24 pm It is the best to have Jang Hyuk as lead role ...he is the one who is Lee Yong O doctor the best. Love his performance.

Anna Jul 07 2016 11:34 am don't like it but I love it! His acting's amazing! Others' too. Each ep makes me feel curious & anxious! ! Hope he can regain his humanity!!

Putri07 Jul 07 2016 2:27 am The story of this drama is amazing, ep 6 make me seed a tears, jang hyuk really good actor.

Rikke Jul 07 2016 2:01 am i watch this drama both with Doctors. I think this drama deserve higher ratings for the plot, Jang Hyuk is the best! Doctors also good but this drama have more mystery to be solved. ^^ Janghyuk fighting!

prettysup Jul 06 2016 11:43 pm Wow episode 6 just kills me! This drama is an exploration of basic humanity, daebak !!

Sam Jul 06 2016 1:11 pm I too love this drama....each episode is making me anxious....it has more to give us in coming episode... fighting drama team....I HV seen so many Korean dramas now...I have completely stopped Indian dramas...I am addicted to k drama!!!!!

Isterndeuter Jul 06 2016 12:07 pm can't hold myself from giving an opinion because this drama is just really good! I love that this story doesn't focus only on the love story. It holds secrets and leads viewers to something unexpected, only to let us wonder again and again. Idk why im so excited but really :')

Cant agree more with the other comments! This drama deserve higher rating, I guess. The characters, the plot, the twist, even the way things get pictured are great. And yes, it has a point on how society acts. Just so recommended.

momo Jul 06 2016 9:22 am I just wonder why this drama getting so low rate.. I mean, the act is so great, also the cast and the story.. Jang Hyuk is never betray us. His act is truly awesome in every drama that he played. Look at the Fate to Love You, Shine or Go Crazy, The Merchant, and even his movie. I always wacth him, because his acting, and absolutely he is different than other actor. Thats why I love him. Lets just watched his drama and dont compare to others drama thats airing too.. Just enjoy it, you'll know.. :)

Abdoo19 Jul 06 2016 9:06 am really disapointed to see people love doctors more than this drama .. it s obvious that people love routine stories and they don't love to think a lit bit ... beautiful mind is really a wonderfull drama to those who love to think not just watching a regular story. this drama is really a great way to describe the suffer of those people who are far from society and those who are unique in their personality. Lee Young O is realy right in everything he did till now ... but you get to know that life is full of non right things

Heartfilia Jul 06 2016 8:50 am Beautiful mind is totally beautiful. Ep5&6 are really wonderful. Jang hyuk acting is amazing. How he try to tells his story and how the story try to tells his story are really portrays beautifully. I am crying watching him and each of his movements, eyes and words really delivers in which i can feel how he feels.i.can imagine myself being in his position treated as a monster. The show also shows us a hint of human nature, Judging a person so easily!

JAC Jul 06 2016 6:42 am Viewed episodes 4-5 and they were great. This drama should win an award.

Switzal87 Jul 06 2016 3:02 am It gets very interesting on Episode 5 & 6 and cant wait for the next!

I dont mind Park So Dam being naive and "annoying" as some viewers described but I think that's the characteristic that will make Lee Young Oh capable to love.

There's a budding romance or alliance at Episode 6 after Lee Young Oh was betrayed!!!! And i forgot ti mention, his father's love was genuine, all the acts he did was to protect his son from the dirty realm of the real world.

jerry Jul 06 2016 1:36 am reason why i still watching bm cauz of rooting the romance of the main leads <3 aigoo. epi 6 last part is so fukin' "kilig"

jeons Jul 06 2016 12:57 am Before I say anything, you have to watch this drama.

I began watching Doctors and BM together but I end up losing interest in doctors real quick and I'm probably gonna stop watching it soon. But for BM, it has been meh as well for the first 4 episodes, but at ep 6.. esp the ending it really touched me;; Okay there's definitely some flaws in the plot like why a traffic police officer?.. but it's kay, which kdrama doesnt have such flaws? (except misaeng im saying)

It's worth the watch!!

The Watcher Jul 06 2016 12:51 am People...stop comparing this drama with doctors. Of course these two are a medic drama but both have a diffrent story line...i watch both and both are doing fine...ignore the rating...just enjoy the show...and stop comparing please...

Ais Jul 05 2016 11:25 pm Kdrama and its obsession with doctors..There are two current & upcoming medical dramas LOL Disaster ratings and that's good. The male lead is boring and overrated.. I'm mean and I know it :D

Peter Jul 05 2016 9:58 pm already disappointing in Doctors, now this ive been waiting for a decent medical drama, but people are more interested in glamorizing dramas than writing decent dramas.

Doctor with zero sympathy = dr Mengele or serial killer that is Reality.

Doctor with zero sympathy= kdrama fantasy.

Please kdrama writers stop recycling crap, like "cold distant attractive characters" over and over again. and use some creativity. Rather catering to useless viewer fantasies.

sophiagarcia Jul 05 2016 9:07 pm Magnanimous performance by JH. You are truly amazing. You are so expressive from your face down, ( every inch expresses an emotion) down to your toes. Your acting is always unexpected and a standout. Kudos to the father, their scenes together always gives me the creeps, like a bomb is going to explode somewhere. I love the story, it thrills me to no end and leaves me hanging every episode.

LIKEEN Jul 05 2016 8:41 pm Great story line, great plot ! Highly recommended !

Plsherrat Jul 05 2016 6:44 pm I like it better than Good Doctor and I LOVED that one. This drama has it all. The plot twists and turns and I love it! All I can think is that Koreans have no idea how good this is. They are probably obsessed with Doctors since it is airing now and has the little princess Shin Hye in it.....eeeeesh! This drama has what all others are lacking now. I am only watching 3 dramas now (as I used to watch like 10 at a time! I know....pathetic!) this one I cannot wait each week. I wish it had more episodes!

Nanu Jul 05 2016 2:17 pm This drama is really unexpected at all that's what I like about it

Heartfilia Jul 05 2016 8:28 am Watching this drama is like watching a movie. It is great in terms of plot and acting. It really challenges your brain and heart. Watching this make you nervous,curious,afraid,sadness,surprised. It is truly a drama that portrays and delivers emotions to us. Dont judge this drama based on the ratings. The low ratings doesnt reflect the quality of the drama at all.

Elena Jul 05 2016 8:14 am I wanted to ask if someone knew the name of young Lee Young-O in ep 3?

polipola Jul 05 2016 6:01 am Just ignore the rating..thats not represent the quality. to be honest this is one of best medical kdrama ive ever watched. Super recomended to wacth. I watched this instead of doctors. Psh drama more about romance and family..nothing special but this one is more about medic, crime and suspense. Different genre i think.. cant wait next episode.

Lia Faris Jul 05 2016 3:44 am This drama really draw my attention. Not like other typical korean drama. Its worth to watch!

Izaya-Orihara Jul 04 2016 11:57 pm This drama is for anyone into something dark, intriguing, and loves the everything about sociopaths. If your romance fan, this drama is definitely for you aswell, since it is one of the only dramas that give the concept of love beyon traditional emotional and physical means. I mean seriously romance in dramas now days is lacking anything original, but this drama delivers a concept of how can person that has no empathy, no true understanding of social intimacy love another human being in a normal manner. The awnser is just that he can't his love transcends normal boundaries, almost monk-like asi if Jang Hyuk's charcater were to love he would love the person in lonely spiritual manner. Just wow I love exploring the different forms of love - to me this form is the only one that is unconditional. So much intrigue and mystery and none of that typical Korean naiveness.

sophiagarcia Jul 04 2016 9:48 pm I am a JH fan. He gives justice to any roles he is given. Love his dramas, TWDR, Merchant, Chunno and this, BM. You lose if you are faint of heart. The good thing is, the leads do not listen to what their hearts feel. This is what the plot is all about so it keeps you guessing all the time

sophiagarcia/rannyfrancisco Jul 04 2016 9:41 pm I am a JH follower. He gives justice to whatever role he is given.

You lose if you are faint of heart in this competitive world. The good thing is, the leads do not listen to what their heart feel. This is what the plot is all about and it will keep you guessing all the time.

Zeeza Almeera Jul 04 2016 6:49 pm This Drama is great with its plot and characters. Though its quite complicated but its really challenging our mind and point of view what great drama delivers to audiences. I really put my attention and interest in this drama a lot. Its worth for my love for movies and KDramas.

prettysup Jul 03 2016 10:59 pm This drama is so intriguing, makes your brain work so much! I guess the low ratings is due to the fact that most viewers prefer easy-on-the-brain dramas. But do give this a try, you won't regret it!

floreina Jul 03 2016 4:33 pm i love this drama!

ㅇㅇ Jul 02 2016 11:41 pm People are not hating on the lead actress, they're only hating on her character. It's the writer's fault not the actress'. There are sooo many reasons why her character is hella annoying and disliked. I can't even begin to list,,,,, And I'm really not sure how will she help with the male lead's character development when her character itself needs LOTS of improvements.. She's hella of a nuisance and makes it hard to enjoy the drama.....I hope the writer does something about it..

Common Jul 02 2016 11:00 pm a lot of comment about park so dam. I don't know about the multi-awarded movie, Beautiful Mind. So I don't know, is there a police character like park so dam or not. But I think, in this drama that's is her character which the writer-nim want to show. A police who is impulsive and too naive. In my opinion, that's character will make young o fallen for her. it's just my opinion.

urneighbor78 Jul 02 2016 10:19 pm I love their acting skills especially jang hyuk and yoon hyun min.I can't wait to see the other episodes but pls make the finale worth to watch.

JustMe Jul 02 2016 5:05 pm A lot of people is hating the lead actress (Park So Dam) and honestly I don't get why. It's only a character and you an't say that when you only watched 4 episodes. She'll actually help the male actor a lot so please watch before you judge and try to understand her character more.

dikio Jul 02 2016 11:58 am I think the biggest failure of this drama is the Park So-Dam character. If she was more witty and sharp it'd be way better. It's hard to say she's a lead, since she always seems to miss the point of situation.

Tie Jul 02 2016 9:50 am This drama is good actually..if u in medical team.

powerfools Jul 02 2016 4:10 am This drama is just like the previously multi-award winner movies a beautiful mind. Therefore i can understand why the rating won't be the highest coz u need to have a beautiful mind to completely enjoy it. This drama is the best drama i've seen so far and hopefully will continue to do so in more episodes to come.

gypsy Jun 30 2016 11:52 pm Omg the cop Jin Sung is so annoying. she irritates me so much.

Elizabeth Jun 30 2016 3:29 pm Beautiful Mind is a more intellectual drama and actually seems deeper than the dramas that are grabbing all the ratings. Regardless of ratings, it's still the most interesting drama currently airing. That's not to say that the Park Shin-Hae drama, Doctors, is bad. It's just not as complex (thus, to me, not as interesting). Jang Hyuk does complex well because I believe he, himself is complex. I consider him possibly the most powerful actor of his generation. I just hope they continue to give his character the fascinating persona that he has now. His bluntness is the most refreshing thing in Kdrama that I've seen in a very long time.

I can't wait until the next two episodes!! (Ep 5 & 6)

Kfanaddict Jun 30 2016 9:28 am Im starting to hate Park Sodam's character .. She is just a police who dont know what to really do and just do what someone else says to her.. Grr. Ive watched crime dramas and she as a police is a complete failure... I hope the writer makes Park Sodam's character more bright or if not more realistic .... Sighhhhh

ja Jun 30 2016 7:15 am the character of Park So-Dam is so annoying . i hope her character will develop. >.<

Jjangover Jun 30 2016 6:50 am Honestly I'm in Iove with this drama. The main characters to me are on point and I'm so fascinated by the male lead one. His mind is insane! I'm loving it! Give this a try you won't be disappointed!!

Common Jun 29 2016 10:41 pm cyview: I think that is the point of this drama. Young O has emotional disorder here, where he can't feel empathy, and love. and the way he raised by his father, shape his character more. his father didn't show love to him. but in some point, I think Young O is being honest.

daisy: I think so too. it looks like the writer nim want to slowly show how young o change. the romance between the lead built slowly too. maybe the writer nim want to show it naturally. love it, anyway.

Hope this drama get the best, although the rating is low. FIGHTING!

Papaoconat Jun 29 2016 8:47 pm At first its felt boring for me but... then this drama became interesting more and more and this drama become one of my collection this year at last lol I also love Jang Hyuk x Park So Dam acting!

daisy Jun 29 2016 2:19 pm it maybe need time to the main lead character turn to the person who has feeling of sympathy and empathy, i guess this drama will showing that love can change people

cyview Jun 29 2016 9:50 am This main character is repulsive, harsh and implacible, a difficult role - even for Jang Hyuk. Come on writers. Viewers want relevancy.

paopao Jun 29 2016 8:37 am wow these drama full of awesome act from JH, it would be great if the female lead is top actress too. for me, these more interisting than Doctors. LOL, maybe less loveline and JH like sherlock

Betty Jun 29 2016 8:06 am I like this drama, it's so intetesting. JH is really good in his role.

Abdoo19 Jun 29 2016 3:25 am I think the korean find this drama too complicated and they get to use to those simple stories ... but for sure this one is really so exciting and interesting and I realy really wonder what happen with the mind of viewers ... for sure you don't want to miss a very beautiful drama like this

prettysup Jun 29 2016 12:12 am This drama is so good! Only JH can act as someone without emotions the way he does!

Bob Cheong Jun 28 2016 1:29 pm Intense plot and great acting.

su Jun 28 2016 12:52 pm I like a lot this drama. But they need better medical adviser, if not that they are planing a amazing twist. Becouse Lee Young-O is taking quetiapine and drinking alcohol, and a neurologisist or neurociurgian would never do that kwowing the consecuences.

Lia Faris Jun 28 2016 9:15 am At first, i dont have any intention to watch this drama. but when i accidentally watch the 1st episode, i've tied up with the drama n really want to know what happen next. the theme and storyline is different from the other clichè drama n this is really draw my attention. Its worth to watch. And to be honest its much better compare to The Doctor.

Sapura Lia Jun 28 2016 8:37 am This drama really draw my attention. Its not like other clichè drama with clichè theme and storyline. Its worth to watch. And Jang Hyuk too, he did a great job as lead role. A Beautiful Mind daebak!

Common Jun 28 2016 8:09 am Such a great drama. It make me wonder how will the story end? I love medical drama, especially psychological. those kind drama give another view about the reason from someone behaviour. really love it.

scorpi Jun 28 2016 7:51 am Do not let the ratings and votes on websites deter you from missing out on a great show. This drama is off to a great start, so give it a chance without preconceived notions from votes and ratings.

Abdoo19 Jun 27 2016 4:03 pm I am really wondering why the rate is so low .. for me this drama is much better than the doctors ... I love psychology dramas and Jang Hyuk is always awesome with his acting

Arahyuk Jun 27 2016 11:36 am Wow wow wow ..... hahahaha.. i really like it... i like jang hyuk oppa since fated to love you... here he really act different from lee gun . I really like him... for this drama, i really like the plot so far ... please keep it up... hahahaha... park sodam really cute and she really doing great as a rookie actress.. the rest so great in acting... really like it... hahahahah... ^^~~

Amby Jun 27 2016 12:18 am I like the way Jang Hyuk portray his role. For me, he is the best actor whatever genre he portrays. Forget about the ratings, its just numbers anyway, more importantly is the way the actors give justice to their roles and the plot of the story. Cant wait for the next episode...

sophiagarcia/rannyfrancisco Jun 27 2016 12:18 am I watch both Doctors and BM but like this plot than Doctors. JH acts better than the lead in the other but PSH is better than the female lead here. Too bad this has a lower user rating than other shows, maybe because user rating is influenced by the stars' popularity?

janghyukoppa Jun 26 2016 2:20 pm Yet another drama underappreciated by TV ratings!! I've been trailing Jang hyuk dramas and again a superb performance from him. Not just him but the story and cast are exciting and intriguing. Can't wait for the next ep!!

TMT Jun 26 2016 1:20 pm First 2 episodes is a wow. Psychological medical thriller with a did he do it premise then turn it upside down to the unexpected. Succeeded in suspense, pacing, intrigued and thrilled. Would definitely anticipating next episode.

The ratings will definitely go up for sure unless people are blind. For me Doctors though not bad but not great either the usual get the heroine to suffer suffer suffer and eventually triumph story line with more emotion so far. Beautiful mind wins hands down vs Doctors except in ratings.

ish Jun 25 2016 6:57 pm Park So Dam? At first I thought it's Hong Seol from Cheese in the trap lol

Kyusome Jun 25 2016 6:15 pm I'm loving it so far, this drama got me hooked from the start and I'm looking forward on how she will change him. I like watching a drama were the viewers also have to think along or guess what's going to happen next (e.g. the scene were she realized his heartbeat wasn't beating as hard as hers of the other doctor when she saved him from hitting). This drama does it all. Can't wait for ep 3 and 4

prettysup Jun 25 2016 12:14 am Wow Beautiful Mind is good! Dont be discouraged by the low ratings, even the Korean netizens are praising it to the sky. Daebak !!

Wadeea20 Jun 24 2016 10:22 pm The best dreama ever i fool in love with it Im waiting for the new Love u my lovely and handsome actor

Common Jun 24 2016 3:54 pm it has better storyplot than doctors for me. I keep asking, what will happend if his father take care of him differently. does he become more human? or more emotionless? its interesting, how he do calculation when do something and become honest/straight forward at the same time. sometime, I get disappointed with the rating. although its hasn't effect to me. but some people will underestimate a great story without watching single episode because of the low rating. hope people will discover it next week and hope it's rating get better. Jang Hyuk oppa FIGHTING!!! BM FIGHTING!!! :-)

sammy Jun 24 2016 2:36 pm For me beautiful mind is far better than Doctors. Even Doctors is good but I am just so intrigued by BM's storyline and Jang Hyuk. It is actually very interesting to see someone so emotionless fall in love. Moreover Jang hyuk is portraying the character dam well. I am not an avid fan of both the leads but some how I really can't stop myself from liking this drama. For Heaven's sake people of Korea please watch BM. I am utterly surprised by the dismal ratings. Seriously BM deserves more recognition. A big shout out to BM. Fighting! :)

Mr Gong Yoo의 팬 Jun 24 2016 12:35 pm Wow !! What a preference I love BM' s Plot more than Doctors's Unbelievable the rating. Jang Hyuk Fighting

Rosbaj Jun 24 2016 9:16 am Superb! one of the best of 2016!

suranga281 Jun 24 2016 7:44 am Definitely BM is better than doctors. Jang Hyuk & Park so-dam are really good at acting. I mean in a drama lead actor and actress needs to act well than others. after all these years in this field, Park Shin-Hye can't even act to the role yet! so how could be Doctors can surpass BM?

JuLia Jun 23 2016 3:13 pm Just watched episode 2. I feel theres something off in this episode, but I don't know what. still trying to figure it out. but definitely I will choose this drama than doctors. because it more interesting for me than doctors which the story is more about love. unfortunately it has low rating. hope it gets better. KEEP FIGHTING!!!

Hana Jun 23 2016 2:12 pm Woooww Jang Hyuk always daebak! definitely will follow this drama

P'pin Jun 23 2016 7:27 am uuhh.. why this drama must aired in the same time with "doctors". it makes everyone comparing "BM" with "Doctors". :/

sam Jun 23 2016 7:03 am Wow at the directing! The first episode is great and the atmosphere for a medical thriller is fantastic! I'll keep on watching this drama. It seems very promising.

konan Jun 22 2016 11:44 pm I love this drama better than Doctors drama.. Both are about medic but this drama seems more interesting to me and as a girl I prefer to see Jang Hyuk than Kim Rae-Won.. lol xP

kara Jun 22 2016 6:54 am Too bad this is airing at the same time as Doctors... Doctors has more of a sappy love story (although I'm kind of enjoying it as well :P), so of course its going to get better ratings... and Park Shin Hye is in it. But, this drama is unique and loving Jang Hyuk's character so far.

kara Jun 22 2016 6:51 am @jap I guess if you watch ep 2 you'll know why she knows medical terminology and laws.

prettysup Jun 22 2016 5:19 am Wow Jang Hyuk and Heo Joon Ho's acting are daebak !

Zane Araki Jun 22 2016 2:03 am I found the first episode to be a fascinating ride. It's all there, bits of action, mystery, suspense, thriller, and melodrama. There are a few mind blowing scene since they weren't expected in those situations.

One problem I often found in korean dramas is that I find it hard to have my comfort zone with the story, characters, settings (and other technical aspects) but Beautiful Mind is exceptional, I already enjoying the universe during the first five minutes.

I think they manage to execute the story's flow brilliantly. And I hope they can keep this up for each episodes.

Migthy Thor Jun 22 2016 12:30 am this is another great medical drama to really follow! Brilliant story, skilled and artistic actors and just FABULOUS !!! Can't wait for the next episode. This drama is simultaneously seasoned with "Doctors" with Kim Rae-Won and Park Shin-Hye, but this one "Beautiful Mind" is a lot far more worth watching! P.S. I hardly recognize Park Se-Young, she seems to have matured a lot! What happened to her? She's not anymore that beautiful innocent girl in WE Got Married, I even liked her a lot specially paired with WooYoung of 2PM (",)

sungdukseon Jun 22 2016 12:20 am I find it weird, the combination between janghyuk and parksodam. It doesn't feel right :v

peach Jun 21 2016 10:00 pm @Blunt, I agree with Ann on Signal if you haven't tried it yet. Best drama I've seen in a while. Keeps you on the edge of your seat with great stories and beautiful characters. No drama I've watched after has beat it this year.

sophiagarcia/rannyfrancisco Jun 21 2016 7:12 pm Here for Jang Hyuk. He is a very scary villain. The leading lady should come out strong to match JH's acting. Too many things going on in only one episode, too many characters introduced. Hope they can sustain the pace until the end. The law does not need an expert to know. It is common knowledge, all you need to know are the numbers.

Ann Jun 21 2016 6:50 pm @Blunt: Try Signal and Oh Hae Young again! There are some flaws but they are just amazing dramas.

Blunt Jun 21 2016 8:30 am 2016 is not a great year for K-dramas. I am still struggling to find one that I like. I was placing my hopes on "Beautiful Mind", but no... Maybe I am being too grumpy.

jap Jun 21 2016 8:26 am after watching epi 1 . i find this flaw in this drama-why park so dam character knows about medical laws even if shes just a police officer. and its not just any ordinary medical law. anyways what can i say in this drama is that it's unpredictable though i know that in the synopsis. park so dam character will be the one jang hyuk character end up with as we know they are the main character . i find jang hyuk character odd which makes this drama unpredictable and love it. good acting flawless for me so far in epi 1.

Doro Jun 21 2016 8:13 am Wooow I can't wait to watch de rest ep!

red Jun 21 2016 7:37 am the first episode had me hooked right away, it is unpredictable where would this story goes after this episode. can't wait for the next one..hope people will watch until further episode to judge :)

leonni Jun 20 2016 11:47 pm so cheesy....some random traffic cop rattles off on medical services bylaw. please, but thank you for making clear the kind of drama in first half hour.

natasya Jun 20 2016 8:41 pm are they going to pair jang hyuk and park so dam??? because i think park so dam and yoon hyun min will look cute as a couple:D

mummykoko Jun 20 2016 5:34 pm Excuse me @unknown! No role that I know Jang Hyuk can't play it well! You could just watch it or leave it! Thank you.

Jasmine Jun 19 2016 9:16 am The girl in the poster looks like Kim Go Eun.

an Jun 19 2016 5:12 am Beautiful Mind good luck! I hope you beat Doctors with the story, the acting and the chemistry, you must prove that you're best.

beng Jun 15 2016 7:35 am Wondered when I'd see Cheon Bong Sam again. Thank you KBS for giving us another drama with Jang Hyuk (JH). Loved him in IRIS 2 and Slave Hunter and just recently watched Windstruck and Fated to Love You. He has definitely become a favorite and will look forward to following Beautiful Mind. However, on casting of this new drama series, Park So Dam appears to be too young to be paired with JH; will they be presented as a couple here? Don't think there will be any chemistry between them. Will watch the series and find out and make further comments later.

rachel Jun 15 2016 3:01 am hi i am not agree with unknown jang hyuk is perfect for this role he can play everything he has not an excessiv laugh it was the role that wanted that . if you have not seen him before like thank you he is one best actor he has chemistry he has a strong sight and the most important for an real and good actor is what you can put in the eyes . actors and the most actresses like hwang eung jun in her dramas plays hwang eung jun' she was pretty' or iu plays iu too they have the same way to play.the men are better actor than women for me the best actresses are lee si youn (valid love or my beautiful bride ) and jang nara we feel differents emotions in their eyes like jang hyuk i hope to see him in more differents characters

D`Archer Jun 13 2016 7:13 am Jang Hyuk 5 Stars actor

JuLia Jun 12 2016 12:12 pm @unknown I think you just watch a few of jang hyuk drama. He has a lot of experience in this field than choi jin hyuk. He has great talent. I think choi jin hyuk must learn to get more experience like jang hyuk.

thank God Jun 11 2016 8:47 am Love the picture, can't wait for the competition between the 2 doctors drama starting the same time,Good luck KBS ,God bless

tsuyoi_hikari Jun 07 2016 9:00 am lol the person who commented about Jang Hyuk inability to act in serious roles must be new. The guy is more popular for his serious roles (Slave Hunter, Tree With Deep Roots, Midas, etc) rather than the comedy ones.

praise Jun 06 2016 2:22 pm Let watch it first and see how it is once again SBS&KBS are rivals likevin dots and CBM same time & episodes can't wait to see who wins although I know it will be tight fighting bm&doctors God loves you.

tiffany Jun 04 2016 4:58 pm I like jang hyuk and park so dam, but not the other leads (Yoon hyun min and park se young)

prettysup Jun 03 2016 7:16 pm @Unknown, you don't have to belittle another actor just because your own favourite did not get the role you desire. Watch the show first before you criticise.

peter Jun 02 2016 11:35 pm how sure are you that jang hyuk cannot fulfill the role. watch iris 2 and see how he plays a very serious role

Unknown Jun 02 2016 5:30 pm I thought Choi Jin Hyuk was the leading actor in the drama. So disappointing. After his knee injury, he could have made a big comeback with this drama, but this so called serious person Jang Hyuk got the lead when he's known for his excessive laughing. How can he pull off playing such a serious role when he cannot fulfill the requirements of the script. In my hones opinion, Choi Jin Hyuk would've made the "perfect" actor to fulfill such a role in this drama that is coming up. So disappointing that Jang Hyuk got the role.

Nameless May 28 2016 12:33 pm @trikuta it's Work from Home by Fifth Harmony

trikuta May 28 2016 12:46 am what was the song in the trailer??

The Watcher May 27 2016 3:13 am Ooo please..jun ji hyun again...come on...she just deliver her 1st baby..give her a break will ya..

Btw..i didn't see park so dam in the trailer...is she really one of the cast?

Korea fan May 26 2016 9:13 pm Can't wait for the return of King of drama - JANG HYUK- Fighting, you are the BEST !

seredi May 25 2016 12:04 am why not jun ji hyun as the lead female actress!! i miss that couple in WINDSTRUCK. >_<

Vivi May 24 2016 9:58 am Yeayyyy!!! Got to see yoon hyun min act again!!!

MICHI May 20 2016 9:23 pm I thought Choi Jin Hyuk was confirmed to play this?

Quote from All K Pop "The actor has been confirmed for a leading role in upcoming KBS2 drama 'Beautiful Mind', the story of a genius, but emotionless doctor who must get to the bottom of a mysterious series of patient deaths"

Avely May 16 2016 12:53 am I love Jang Hyuk. Looking forward to this : )

purple May 01 2016 11:20 am Jjang Hyuk

wendy Apr 30 2016 5:07 am disappointed with the cast.

Bony Apr 28 2016 2:23 am I like Jang Hyuk cast here, but dislike Yoon Hyun Min and Park Se Young i hope more wonderfull cast here.

prettysup Apr 26 2016 11:21 pm Heo Joon Ho, Oh Jung Se, Ryu Seong Soo and Yoo Jae Myung have been confirmed as the cast too.

Jan Apr 26 2016 3:38 pm So excited about this drama, one of my favorite actors, Jang Hyuk is a great talent and I'm sure he will entertain us all so well this summer.

prettysup Apr 25 2016 8:27 pm There will be a 4 episode short drama in between My Lawyer and Beautiful Mind. Hence this one will premiere on Jun 20.

prettysup Apr 25 2016 8:25 pm Jang Hyuk, Yoon Hyun Min and Park Se Young have been confirmed for this drama, first script reading to take place on Apr 28.

CatSlave Apr 20 2016 12:34 pm Crissey, it won't be Jo Bo Ah... she's in Monster, which is scheduled to air through September. Then again, with the lead actor not being secured, the idea of this airing in June is a bit worrying-they should already be doing script readings, after all (LJS is doing Jade Lover in China then W... who knows who they'll find that isn't already busy).

Crissey Apr 20 2016 1:51 am Hope is jo bo ah will be the lead shes really great with any genre.

Peto Apr 17 2016 3:32 pm Kim bum and Kim ji won <3! Hoping for this starcast!!

Juju madridista Apr 15 2016 6:44 am Kim ji won/lee yoo bi plizzzz

Xia Apr 15 2016 4:32 am I hope the male lead role will be offered to Kim Soo Hyun along with Son Ye Jin as the female lead. It'll be really great to see them together in a drama:)

Olivia Apr 14 2016 6:02 pm Jang Hyuk and Park So Dam whoever she is. I think she acts to the films mostly. May be I need to start watching films.

lola Apr 13 2016 12:29 pm Kim so hyun and yoo seungho please or with hyungshik or bts V or park bo gum

jashik Apr 11 2016 11:55 am Lee Je Hoon please and the female lead is kim so eun

prettysup Apr 10 2016 7:21 pm Not sure where the news came from, but both KBS and Choi Jin Hyuk's agency have confirmed that he had not been offered the role. I would think so too since there will surely be huge backlash if he decided to take on a new project so soon after his early military discharge due to injury.

Jan Apr 07 2016 5:59 pm Heard Choi Jin Hyuk was offered a part. I sure hope he's in it and that he sings on the OST too. That man's voice is fantastic and he's very easy on the eyes too. Will be great to see him back.

Also, heard that Jang Hyuk was offered a role for this show, hope he does it too because he's a fantastic actor that just brings quality to every character he plays. Jang Hyuk & Choi Jin Hyuk, great combo for summer. I loved how they worked together in Fated To Love You. Best lines ever: Lee Gun "And who are you?" Daniel Pitt "I'm just the Neighborhood Oppa"

I hope these two men do this drama.

Mimi Apr 03 2016 11:23 pm I heard Choi Jin hyuk aaccepted role for this drama? Is he playing main lead or 2nd lead??? If it true....Welcome back Oopa !!!!!! ^^

lily Apr 03 2016 9:32 pm excited for the cast. can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!!

chibi Apr 03 2016 6:47 am handsome like hyun bin, kim hyun joong,lee min hoo,park shi hoo,yoochun,joo jin moo etc. handsome. pretty like me hahaha...

mmmm Apr 01 2016 6:00 am everybody is literary declining it, its because of kill me heal me and hyde jekyll me didn't do well. kill me heal me had its moment but it was short it was like a normal drama but people made a big deal because hyun bins drama was bad compared to secret garden and they were disappointed. otherwise it was a normal drama not a perfect one. the fact all the a star actors declining it means they don't want to take a risk for it. they either have to pay a lot of money to convince someone or a rookie actor. deep in my heart i kinda want hyun bin to give DID dramas another try but i don't think he is gonna do it again and he is busy shooting movie so its hard.

miss Mar 31 2016 8:25 pm hyun bin , lee min ho, park shi hoo, kim hyun joong one of this i hope to be male lead. please...

Nathan Aug 23 2015 9:00 am Lee jong suk officially declined this drama. It have been already three popular actors. Kim soo hyun to Yoo ah in to lee jong suk. All declined. Now, who is next?

commenters xxx Aug 17 2015 10:18 am I hope Lee Jong Suk will accept this drama. And I hope Kang Sora will be offered too so the quack couple can come back in the same drama as the main couple

HIHI Aug 12 2015 10:38 pm I thought lee jongsuk was offered the lead role?!

Richie Kim Jun 24 2015 2:56 am My dream cast for this drama:

Lee Yi-Kyung as MC Reason: His eyes and voice suit the role; would be great if this can be his first leading role; his age also suits the role.

Kim Soo-yeon as MC lover Reason: She can pull off a naive thinking when it comes to save patients she cares bout + she has innocent looks + her voice sounds sweet

Ahn Jae-Hyun as MC rival + head of surgery department (despite a very young age) Reason: this drama can be his redemption after his latest drama didn't succeed; maybe his character might have a brother who has the same case as MC but the brother died due to mishap from one of his personalities

But I will have to see whether another cast can buy my belief in watching this medical drama which has a good plot since Good Doctor.

In fact, Dr Frankenstein sounds like a mature version of Good Doctorb so don't expect anything funny from this drama.

Unless one of LYK's personalities turns out to be a bumbling teenage kid or a show-off gangster name Gang-pae literally. Hehe.

mv123 May 03 2015 3:58 am please moon chae won together with park shi hoo again.please i miss them.

Miss Apr 07 2015 1:20 am Can you please offered Lee Min Ho to be a main cast of this drama together with Moon Chae Won. Im sure it will be IN and it will become on the top 8 listed poll closed this year. lee min ho together with moon chae won.

victoria Apr 06 2015 6:23 am song joong ki is the main cast of the new drama ''descended from the sun''.

Sunny Mar 16 2015 3:42 am Lee Wan oppa is Dr Frankenstein, that would be nice. He is a great actor. It is quite long since the last drama I watched him in. Hope to see his comeback drama after out of military sevice for quite long that make me mad enough in waiting... Dr Frankenstein, Lee Wan oppa! Fighting...

karin Mar 15 2015 10:58 pm I want song joong ki for the lead role he was so good in nice guy.
