Comments

Aozora Sep 18 2020 9:29 pm I am watching this series due to a recommend from a friend.

Five minutes into the series, I could not help to think this is the Korean version of Dr. X, a very entertaining Japanese drama.

Firstly, I admire the actors that they have to memory the medical terms to make us believe they really are medical graduate.

However, to be honest, I find this drama quite boring regardlesa of the awards on this page, except for the main doctor character, who is very similar to Japanese Dr. X.

The romance feels forced. The Dong Ju character is one of the worst creations. Many of the dramas are dragged and some are unbelievable. For instance, the surgery for the Chairman dragged over saveral episodes. Unbelievable, for examples, the poweful Chairman obeyed and allowed his operation to be not private and broadcasted live. Dong Ju confronted Kim in the ER, watched by patients about his personal issue, while it was said the time is very of ultimate importance.

Only watch this because my Netflix says it will be taken out feom library in a short while. And with the help of smart TV remote to fast forward boring scenes.

As medical themed entertainment, it is far compared to the Dr. X.

As kdrama, have to say this, it cannot hold a candle to My Mister.

Not sure why the high rating.

Honest opinion.

CV Aug 19 2020 3:31 pm Best Medical Drama. I watched this in 2018 and been waiting for season 2 .. but really disappointed that they changed the main cast. Is the season 2 good?

DramaAddicts Aug 17 2020 1:02 pm Why do i find this boring? I didn't even continued watching it after episode 3. This is just only for my opinion. Does it related with season 2 because i found that the actor for season 2 is different from season 1 main lead. Might jump watching to season 2..

K drama forever Jun 10 2020 10:10 pm really interesting drama and all the medical and emergency cases are really unique and interesting! the couple is also really cute and the characters are really funny :)❤❤ highly recommend?

Fam May 20 2020 3:41 am Best medical drama so far! I'm an architect by profession but now I want to become a good doctor! Haha kidding aside, this is the first medical drama I've ever watched! Season 1 and season 2 was daebak!!! Hoping and waiting for season 3

KDrama Stan May 10 2020 3:09 pm Best medical Korean drama ever. Case closed.

Shuu_cream May 05 2020 9:17 am I think this drama is inspired by Doctor X~ maybe??

Nice plot and heartwarming scenes. I hope there's Season 3

Lovelyn Angelic May 03 2020 9:50 am I just cannot afford not to say something about this drama. So i decided to write a review. Everything in this drama feels so real, the acting are remarkable and the actors are outstanding! ? From season 1 to season 2 I have been so in love with this drama. One important thing i could probably say is that this drama made me realized how being a doctor who choose his patient first before anything else is really important. This drama did not fail to consider the challenges a doctor or any healthcare workers experienced inside the institution, it did not sugar coat how health care worker must have felt during those challenging times too (although there's drama all over the scene), and the most challenging part above all is about the high authorities who fail or even choose to neglect the unvarnished situation of the healthcare system and tends to cover up ethical and professional issues. I just want to say ? thunbs up for this drama! Hoping for 3rd season! Wish you all the best! ?

Hana May 02 2020 6:19 am I only watched this drama when i saw Dr. Romantic 2. I got curious so i watched this first season and Ghad ! This is perfect! I will rate it 10/10. And it's the best kdrama I've watched so far. I'm so happy they made a season 2 and i will start watching it ❣ it's a masterpiece for me. ????

Bea Apr 16 2020 8:46 am Watched this while waiting for new episode of Yo Yoon Seok's current drama. I was here for him but i didn't expect to looooove all the cast. Couldn't believe I'm already done with it. Now, I understand why this show was talked about a lot. I know there's a 2nd season (and i'll watch that too) but i'll definitely miss the characters who are not there.

Minsu Apr 15 2020 5:32 am I love Dr Kim hope in season 3 all casts in season 1 will be back please..Dr Kang and Crazy Whale..i love all casts here..great acting all here love them. Love the Director. Oppah Dr Kim great acting!

Dhomrun Apr 14 2020 10:06 pm Yoo Yeon Seok is extra handsome in this drama, especially in later episodes. Not love at first sight, but he caught me by surprise midway in Ep 1 if you know what I mean. The first drama I ever watch him on and now watching his other dramas.

Tsunderee Apr 10 2020 2:06 am I love this drama so much, everything here is almost perfect. All casts are great. DR kim Dr Kang oppa..they are all great in acting..Yoon Seo Joong everyone is good. I regret why i just wstch this only. Many awards should ne given in fabulous drama. Hatsoff to the director. In season 2 even 3 hope all casts are remain. Cute Yoon Yoon Seok..he is like Ju Mong.

momom Apr 08 2020 6:33 am if only master kim werent that egoistic, this drama would be perfect but im at episode 5 now, i know this drama is good ^^ lets see the improvement of kang dong joon and yoon seojung

eanna Apr 05 2020 4:50 am im now attached to kim sabu and the staffs of doldam,, pls pls pls season 3 with the casts of season 1 and season 2,, it will be great!!!!!!!

Mc Apr 03 2020 11:27 am Please get back seo hyun jin and too yeon-seok. Perfect couples. Im inlove with them.

April Cuarto Mar 31 2020 11:07 am Season 1 needs to have a continuation?

sevi Mar 12 2020 10:30 am i hope there will be season 3 of this drama with the casts of s1 and s2 im sooo excited sooo im hoping that there will be season 3 HEHEHEHE..

Marie Mar 07 2020 3:27 pm I love this so much! I love Doldam squad. I miss them while watching S2

Still yoona Feb 29 2020 10:45 am Still my favorite drama series ever.. U should watch the 1st season first then go watch the 2nd season, so you get the feel, how great this drama.. In the 1st season, it was already "boom" even in the first episode, but in the second seas, i got that feel in 10th episode,,

Yasmin Feb 26 2020 8:56 am I finished watching season 2 today. It's a great drama. Then I thought I should watch the first season. So here I am, going through the 8th episode today. It's great, but I have to say that I like season 2 better. The characters are more mature. AHS and LSK really nailed the characters. Also the veterans like Han Suk Kyu and Jikyung. I don't say that YYS and SHJ are bad, they are great. And I don't believe that it is Yang Se Jong debut drama. His acting is superb. So happy that he did a cameo appearance in S2. I'm looking forward for season 3 ??

kakkoi04 Feb 10 2020 4:27 pm Hmmm, I am now watching the Season 2 however I am not thrilled as much as this season got me. No offense with the S2 fans because I also admit it has its own charm. S1 just have a better script, for me?

Mr X Feb 02 2020 4:02 am My all-time favourite drama that I came back to watch when hearing season 2 was coming. Kang Dongju and Yoon Seojung are such real characters played by exemplary actors, and to top that off Teacher Kim is a figure with so much presence.

The drama may start out slow but once all are gathered at Doldam Hospital each episode keeps you on your toes until the very end. Everything about this drama from the actors, to the filming, editing and soundtrack is so well-crafted - there's no doubt as to why a second season was created.

No, you don't need to watch this season if you're looking to start season 2 on its own, but you're really missing out if you don't.

Freshblood Jan 24 2020 4:25 am That man Mr. Jang doesn't deserve much screen time than he got. His acting really cringe

BEE_ Jan 23 2020 7:01 pm The Best Medical Kdrama Ever!! (the Ratings will prove it tho) now waiting for the season 2 to be conpleted so I can bonge-watch it ❤️

Shoujo enthusiast Jan 14 2020 8:01 am Just finished this drama and it was definitely one of the BEST dramas i have ever watched full of twist and turn and amazing actors and actresses. The amount of times i was so overwhelmed during the drama just shows how good they were. Im just a bit sad that i watched it now im four years late for this but still wanted to leave my option because it is truly an amazing drama and worth every second.

Winterfairy Jan 13 2020 1:16 pm @ashcash ,what? ....this was shown at the first semester of January 2017 so it has been only 3 years...

Actually I watched this drama until eps 3 but I got bored. I bought the dvd and saved it in my external drive. Now it has season 2 so I need to watch again. I hope I can finish it. Anyway, Netflix has this already.

Noonaloveskdrama Jan 13 2020 1:11 pm I hv not finished the season 1. I got bored bc I felt it was draggy but I will start it again and finish it so that I can start season 2.

ashcash Jan 12 2020 11:11 am I can’t believe that it’s taken me 4 years to watch this drama!! I started watching season 2 first and then I felt it was necessary to watch season 1 (not necessarily but def worth watching!!!). This drama has to be one of my fave medical dramas of all time!! Dr. Kang was annoying at times but I had so much fun rooting for him and his love for Dr. Yoon. I also loved the family-friendship relationship at Deoldam Hospital! I’m going to miss the lead doctors but I’m looking forward to Doctor romantic season 2!

J Jing Jan 12 2020 7:18 am oh well it was a rly good drama. every episode some problem appeared and they had to resolve it. so you wont get bored while watching it. Yoo Yeon-Seok and Seo Hyun-Jin were rly good together. too bad there inst that much of focus in their romance. so it kinda feels lacking. tho they have a rly good chemistry

Random Thoughts Jan 08 2020 2:41 pm as of ep 5 im kinda sad i rly got hyped by Kang Dong-Joo on ep1 dude was cool and straight forward. but after that dude just get lame af. tho im pretty sure things get better as the drama itself has such a high popularity everywhere. so that just a small rant. tho it wouldn't be bad if the drama stayed like ep1 for a few more episodes xD

c-chan Jan 03 2020 1:14 am just binged this in three days, probably the best korean medical drama i've seen, although the amount of unprofessionalism is mind-boggling. granted, it is still a drama first and foremost, but fighting AND shouting while treating patients, not to mention everyone from the orderlies to the nurses to the doctors stopping to have a stare off in shock while nobody is paying attention to the patient? it's so absurd that i just had to laugh every time. anyway, i still love it to bits, teacher kim is an awesome, complicated and layered character that i havent seen in so long. the bad guys are one dimensional, so there's really nothing to say there. the supporting cast are brilliant, except, personally, for kang dong ju who seems to be the most lackluster character in doldam. he grows up a bit, regresses, learns, then unlearns. he's...pretty annoying, although there's a stretch of eps (13-17) when he's actually good.

also, shoutout to how they portray nurses? finally, not just background love interests but actually an important member of the medical team? like, when they were trying to cut down on surgery time by getting all the preparations done even faster and better *chef's kis*

Yy Jan 01 2020 5:59 am Good drama but while the other doctor and the other staff busy to save the patient and save the hospital, dr. Yoon too busy with her personal business.. His love story, his family and also busy with PTSD.

zihqn Dec 16 2019 11:19 pm best drama

Nasha Dec 06 2019 6:56 am The first time i fell in love with Sejong ??? also the drama is so amazing i wanted all the cast to be in season 2 but thats okay. I watched it when it first came out and i poved it so much ???????

Jay 4rm the block Jul 25 2019 8:11 am Great drama

PCJ800819 Jun 24 2019 2:44 am Nice drama... Korean's medical drama never disappoint me !!!

Although there are some peculiarities that are unreasonable, such as a doctor can take medicine until overdose but overall the storyline is beautiful...

Ann Jun 16 2019 3:07 pm Great drama!!!I’m glad that I watched it.. I’m really excited for part 2!!!

Filomena Ribeiro Mar 31 2019 1:15 pm Very good drama. I came across this drama, because I am watching the best dramas of Yoo Yeon Seok since I got to know about him watching MR SUNSHINE and he realy impresed me. Watching this drama confirmed to me that he is a good actor. All the actors in this drama are very good special mention to Han Suk Kyu.

Noni Dec 19 2018 9:46 pm Brilliant drama. Cast, story, dialogue, directing...just a brilliant piece of work. You'll enjoy this from beginning to end.

DW Nov 21 2018 1:40 pm Read the title, you'd expect Doctor Kim to be a funny, goofy, laidback guy. But he's such an asshole throughout the early episodes. He annoyed the hell out of until midway through. He seems to hold everything with contempt, taking out his anger 'cause of his past on everyone. He is especially a complete douchbag to Yoonseok and Hyunjin's character. I did not like watching the early episodes due to this.

Medically, I think it's the best Kdrama I've seen though. It reminded me of Code Black more than anything with its fast paced and quite accurate usage of trauma situations. Also LOVED the supporting cast, especially the angry burst Myung-Sim had every now and then which made the episodes for me.

yy Oct 26 2018 12:16 am This is my all-time favourite Korean drama, I just keep coming back to it!

Stephy Oct 20 2018 3:55 am This drama is so good! Love the casts and amazing acting!

Ally Sep 27 2018 8:58 am Probably the best kdrama i ever watch!

YeeSshi Aug 21 2018 8:59 pm I didn't recognised Yang Se-Jong is actually Do In-Bum at the first place ?

romantic May 11 2018 3:18 am Allow me leaving out common sense to say this one; seo hyun jin has a duality of personality, the sweet fish in the pond or the shark of the predator ha ha ha

dokter romantis May 11 2018 3:12 am Allow me leaving out common sense to say this one; seo hyun jin has a duality of personality, the sweet fish in the pond or the shark of the predator ha ha ha

dokter romantis May 11 2018 3:11 am Doctor is a very serious profession. Someone with high intelligence or generate thoughts from disease diagnosis, therapy, etc. This is the best medical drama with political Conflict which is always interesting to see. There is so much to sacrifice but there is always choice, become obedient in accordance with the hierarchy of the company or more listening to the conscience because the body first feels 'something' before your brain knows. In the end become brainy when it comes to making decisions.

Linda Mar 30 2018 3:08 pm This drama is simply z best

Juniper Mar 21 2018 12:34 pm This drama is the reason why I want to be a General Surgeon or Nurse.But I ave Hemophobia so,it's impossible.

Juniper Mar 21 2018 12:33 pm Can't wait for season 2,if that news is legit.I think it will show the love triangle between Yeonhwa,In Bum and Eun Tak haha.#Hoping

Healer Mar 20 2018 8:15 am This was honestly such a super good drama. I felt like I learnt so much about life from this drama. Was simply amazing and inspiring! And really wish I could meet someone like teacher Kim. Teacher Kim jjang!!

Rodelia Mar 09 2018 1:03 am Season 2 please.....

Rodelia Mar 09 2018 1:01 am I hope there will be more episodes.....:( i really like this korean drama. Especially teacher kim....

kai Feb 15 2018 12:23 pm I watched this drama because I love Seo Hyun Jin and Yang Se Jong in Temperature Of Love. No wonder their chemistry in TOL is super great. It is evident in this drama as well, although they don't really have a loveline. Even the main couple love story is not a big focus since this is a medical drama. And it is a very good one. I heard there will be a Season 2! I hope Teacher Kim and all the Doldam Avengers will return!

Anebe Bagan Feb 15 2018 5:12 am Yoo Yeon Seok And Seo Hyun Jin Is My Bias And Best Couple

Yas Feb 11 2018 7:27 am Ep5. Dr. Yoon playing "Loser" by BigBang

RicaSl Jan 29 2018 8:44 am the besttttttt k-drama I've ever seen, I've got inspired to be a nurse or a doctor someday and everyday I watched it I got new lessons in life, I wish this k-drama has a part 2??, I learned so much things this k-drama help me a lot❤ PARTTTTT 2!!!!

Emz Jan 09 2018 11:17 pm One of the best medical drama! Season 2 plsss!!!!??

BlackNWhite Jan 08 2018 9:17 am In my opinion so far this is the best medical drama that I ever watched. I hope that SBS will allow season 2 to happen!!!!T_T PLEASE!!!!!

Angel Jan 05 2018 7:09 pm This drama is one of d best medical drama and d actors r great especially Han Suk-kyu but its a bit disappointing in d end. I thougt Mas2ter Kim and his Ex gf will be back as a couple in d end bec it showed that they still have fellings with each other but she left... how can he be a romantic doctor if he has no one in the end?... about the cartoonist did his opration failed? Cuz it seems that his comic book has no ending and also wht happened to director Do?

Superman Spiderman Dec 01 2017 12:38 am This drama has got to be THE BEST medical dramas ever. it had the PERFECT ratio of drama : medical-related : romance. the writers did a fantastic job on making the scripts and making sire the actors portray the characters to perfection.

if youre a biomedical student, i really suggest you to watch it as it will really open your eyes on the medical world. aside from that, this drama also teaches you the art of hardwork and effort on how both will do wonders on your career.

yoonseok really did amazing acting out dongjoo's character and same goes for hyunjun portraying seojung's character. their chemistry was indeed wonderful and let me tell you, the kissing scenes in here will not disappoint you! its not the usual lip to lip flat af kind of smacking LMAOOO. yoonseok really is an amazing kisser and a total cutie!

this drama has a high rating for a very good reason. everything about this drama was simply and utterly perfect. it really is not your typical medical drama at all and i think the highlight of this drama is that, you wont experience a second-lead-syndrome and that is a total plus from me.

to everyone to plans on watching this then let me assure you, instead of regretting about watching this medical drama, you will instead regret not watching this drama in the first place.

for real though, im not one to be a fan of medical dramas but holy moly, this drama was an exception and i really did regret not watching it earlier. i finally get why everyone was hyping so much about it.

Jaja Magos Nov 11 2017 4:06 am I'll be watching this because of Yang se jong. After im done watching Temperature of love...super kinilig ako..hahaha Feeling bata..

Miki Oct 27 2017 11:05 am one of the best!!!

eun Oct 21 2017 3:26 am shin yi joon is parted of this drama. why her name is not on character list

???? Oct 19 2017 11:40 pm You guys should watch “Temperature of Love”!!! Seo Hyun Jin and Yang Se Jong are the two main leads who both appeared in this drama ?

Paul Wrightsman Oct 16 2017 8:19 pm Seo, Hyun Jin may be a competent actress but she is totally unbelievable in the role of a doctor. She acts like a kindergarten kid. I am sure she is mouthing the lines given her but she could try to day them with a bit of maturity.

norama Oct 01 2017 3:27 pm Why I didn't watched it in 2016 ? The best korean medical drama ?

Sentella Sep 29 2017 8:07 am 10 our of 5 stars! ? Putting this on my list of most precious dramas I've watched.

When I was younger there were 3 professions that I never considered as my future career - Law, Medicine, and Teaching. But if I watched this drama 10 years ago, I would have decided to become a doctor. The series was just so inspiring for me.

I have nothing bad to say about RDTK. Unlike the other medical dramas I've watched, the show focused on what the doctors dealt with and thought of behind their jobs. It showed conflicts and dilemmas when choosing decisions between morality/ethics and ambitions - and sometimes situations won't even give the right choice.

I love the romantic, funny, and heartbreaking scenes of the story. I can't count how many times I cried because some moments were just too heartbreaking for me. But overall, Romantic Doctor is heartwarming because it deals with loyalty, sacrifice, responsibilities, and becoming a better person.

Sushmita Majumdar Sep 25 2017 10:53 am Best drama, just loved it. Master Kim was outstanding, loved him. Please come up with the next season with same cast.

Raffy Sep 24 2017 8:13 am If you liked Doctors with Park Shin Hye, you will also definitely like this. A good drama with a gripping plot that will hook you to each episode. The side stories are great as well. Highly recommended. It's like "House" (american series) korean version.

Lalayuri Sep 10 2017 6:02 am Good drama, I really ship seo hyun jin and yoo yeon seok. Season 2 pleasee

Nana Aug 19 2017 8:49 am Must watch!!! Clap clap clap!

Sa Rang Aug 09 2017 11:50 am @glee Perfect. I've been looking for those music recently, thank you

But for those who curious about the instrumental song it's from Sherlock Holmes BBC - The Game is On

Hope you like it ♡

And Yoo Yeon Seok really look alike Sehun from EXO ♡♡♡

Riana Aug 07 2017 10:13 am I watched several of Yoo Yeon Seok's movies n series & they were good, but this drama is when i'd say i fall in love with him, though this drama isn't focus on Dong Joo & Seo Joon romance, but whenever they have the romantic scene,which is few, they did it so good in a cute way .. I dont find myself tired or bored watching this drama.. Good job all the casts, daebak...

glee Aug 07 2017 4:57 am I love this series --- that's all I can say. :)

For those who are curious about Master Kim's mixed tape (like me), and since it was not published in Wikipedia as part of their OSTs here are some of the songs:

Material Girl - Madonna True Colors - Cyndi Lauper Oh My Love - John Lennon Blowin' in the Wind - Peter, Paul and Mary Time in a Bottle - Jim Croce

The Stranger - Billy Joel (intro song) Hey Jude - The Beatles (though this song is not on the mixed tape, but still!)

Hope you like it as much as I do. Cheers! :)

Brandon Aug 06 2017 5:19 am Really good series, the story line is very interesting and acting is superb. No gimmicky cliches and the romance isn't over bearing. The medical cases are really interesting as well. I binged this series in 4 days it was so good.

Dea Jul 28 2017 12:38 am While watching this drama for d first time, I was in d final year of my medical school. This is the best medical drama i'v ever seen. It feels like attending a lecture of general surgery but in a relaxing way. This drama has a lot of medical cases in each episode. The quote that master Kim said was so touching. As a young doctor now, i always remember how a doctor should be through Master Kim. This is recomended!!!! If you are in a medical school or want to be a doctor, you should watch this :)

Anw, my fav role in this drama is Master Kim and doctor Do in boem actually :3 hehehe.

Amnany Jun 29 2017 9:26 pm I fall damn hard for this drama . It teach me the value of dignity and morals over lust for money and power . Dr.Kang and Dr.Yoon really Suits each other , ship them forever . Btw Master Kim is so romantic haha

Lucy Jun 14 2017 7:20 am My favorite Kdrama????????

Pierrot Jun 12 2017 11:22 am @Nana iirc, Dr Yoon was Kim Sabu's first surgery at the Doldam Hospital. Kim Sabu and Nurse Oh met for the first time in 2002, at the police station, around the time Kim Sabu was kicked from Geodae Hospital. At the time Nurse Oh hasn't worked at Doldam, but another hospital. I assume that in 2011, when he found Dr Yoon at the mountain, he started work at Doldam with Dr Nam, and Nurse Oh followed shortly after that. Cmiiw

skukian Jun 08 2017 11:54 am Definitely one of the best dramas i have ever watched... Great acting by the actors! I would recommend this drama to everyone... Especially to doctors! Wonderful lessons..

Nana May 28 2017 7:30 pm Anybody knows about how and when (I expect a detailed timeline hehe) Teacher Kim met Nurse Oh? Is dr.Yoon the first patient that Teacher Kim surged at Doldam Hospital or is it the patient from police station? Thank You ^^

ABC May 22 2017 9:03 pm @Rena, @Diana : (Question : Chairman Shin said there are something he would say to Kim Sabu after the surgery, and I think it's something big so he asked Manager Joo to keep it as secret cause Chairman Shin wanted to say it himself... So, what was it?)

It was in episode 20 in the drawing Chairman Shin left for Kim Sabu. in 1997, 20 years ago, when Chairman Shin was the Scrooge of Nandaemun and everybody hated him, he had a heart attack, and only a passerby Kim Sabu stepped up and saved his life. That is why Chairman Shin trusted Kim Sabu so much and now presumably is going to help him build his Trauma Centre.

ABC May 22 2017 6:33 am Kim Sabu is awesome. so so good. I wish there were more dramas like this. So mature. I am tired of high school stories. So many lessons and different wisdom to view the world.

Diana May 16 2017 11:16 pm @Rena I re-watched the drama after seeing your comment, and focusing on the scene that Mr Kim read the manga... But i really couldn't find the answer... He just looked at the blank page and laughed, was it something related to what Chairman Shin narrated "do you remember the time..." or something? Or was it the manga itself? Well I also hope there will be season 2, or at least a movie...

Kerokero May 16 2017 11:23 am Oh and more thing... If you haven't watched this drama and wondering whether you should watch it or not, I'll say this: this drama is NOT RECOMMENDED. You'll get addicted, you'll cry a lot, you won't be able to sleep at the night... Once you start you can't stop watching it until the end... Trust me, this drama is a toxic Well, don't say I didnt warn you!!

Kerokero May 16 2017 10:38 am Oh and one more thing... For you who haven't watched this drama and wondering whether you should watch it or not, I'll say this.. This drama is really NOT RECOMMENDED.. You'll get addicted, you'll cry a lot, and you wont be able to sleep in the night... You can't stop watching until the end. Well I have warned you, people!

Kerokero May 16 2017 10:19 am It wasnt the actors that made this drama amazing... Well I didn't say they're not good; in fact they played their characters really well. But It was the plot, the story. Every episode was well-written, it makes you always curious about what will happen next. I mean a lot of Korean dramas use popular actors to gain high ratings with ordinary plots. The ratings has proven it.

Sayyy May 03 2017 6:44 am This drama deserves a higher rating, i didn't expected that i would love this so much. It's my first time watching medical drama so i watch this without any expectations. It turns out that this is one of the best (k)drama i've ever watch. One of my fav thing about this is the cast, all of them did a great job in portraying their characters especially Han Seok Kyu as Master Kim. He's such a great actor and i love how he deliver his lines with so much feels. I'm also surprised bc they maintained the excitement and intense feeling from the beginning until the end, there's no downhill unlike other dramas where the beginning is the only interesting part. The chemistry of Seo Hyun Jin and Yoo Yeon Seok are also on point (not to mention the kissing scene on episode 1.) I want to see more of them, 21 episodes (including the special episode) isn't enough for a fan like me.

stantalentonly Apr 19 2017 10:26 pm Is there any great medical drama other than this?for me i think this drama had the best surgery scene im not a doctor so i dont really know how the real surgery but all the scene look amazingly real and the skills really great

Lala Apr 07 2017 7:29 am Congtats for being nominated in best drama award in Baeksang award, hopefully you win it!

FATIN IZZAH Apr 04 2017 11:41 pm This story has so many good plots !! So so so in love with this dramaaaaaaa , every episodes are so knowledgeable and this drama should be watch to those who wants to be a doctor so they get the feelings meh

smileyme Mar 29 2017 2:16 am Really enjoy this drama and I think it really need season 2 too...I really like Han Suk Kyu he is favourite veteran actor and Yoo Yeon Seok too

Fan Mar 26 2017 9:08 pm Wow the ratings are really good! Seo hyun jin unnie hwaiting

Siying Mar 20 2017 11:46 pm Does anyone know what happened between 14 years ago and 5 years ago? In ep 21 they said Dr Kim's first surgery was on Dr Yoon 5 years ago, but he was kicked out 14 years ago. So what about the other 9 years? I tot he was at Doldam for 14 years...?

Mil Mar 16 2017 5:33 pm Bob A. Nonymous, the stranger by Billy Joel

Bob A. Nonymous Mar 14 2017 10:26 pm Does anyone know the name of the song played at the ending credits? It's the guy with the scratchy, straining voice....this song just sounds so painfully awesome & fell in love with it immediately

raerae Mar 14 2017 7:32 am Sequel pls? Im so in love in this drama! I love all the characters!! A lot of lessons learned.. Just couldnt get enough of it! Lovelots.

CEO Shin secret Mar 10 2017 11:31 pm until the end of episode.. and after watch special episode (untold story) i had expectation that in this episode will told about CEO Shin's secret to Kim Sabu after the surgery succesfully...

am so curious.. what the secret???

Cary Mar 03 2017 8:04 am A medical drama masterpiece! Really really great portraying of the surgeon, operations and theories, so much life lesson to learn from it. As a medstudent i sincerely give this drama a standing ovation???

lbjeanne Feb 20 2017 5:47 pm I'm gonna watch this drama because I really love Seo Hyun-Jin in Another Oh Hae Young. She's just awesome!!!

Michael Feb 19 2017 7:10 am Really enjoyed the series ,but left me hanging, are there more episodes coming ? Awesome cast, great mix of personalities , gives us something to look forward to each week. Nice to see someone giving American tv a run for its money, and actually winning.:)

Jo Feb 18 2017 6:17 am Oh My Love by John Lennon

Rena Feb 12 2017 4:54 pm Diana Jan 30 2017 1:33 am I have a question. Chairman Shin said there are something he would say to Kim Sabu after the surgery, and I think it's something big so he asked Manager Joo to keep it as secret cause Chairman Shin wanted to say it himself... So, what was it? The cancer? Or what? -------------

Its on the manhwa that mr.kim read.

Well, the ending is season2able. i hope so.

Aiman Feb 10 2017 2:04 am Great drama, with awesome casts and plot. Definitely support what Kim Min Jae said to hope for season 2!

tess Feb 02 2017 9:00 am This is one fantastic drama. I love that all cast members are really good and natural in their acting. Everything just fell in their right places. Thee romance was good not overpowering. The comedy is good too. Lots of funny scenes. What is really noteworthy are the real life lessons you can learn by following the story as it unfolds. I think it is one of the best korean drama I have ever watched. Truthfully, I had my share in korean dramas,,,,,,

mingirim Jan 31 2017 12:19 pm You deserve all the love and popularity Seo Hyunjin!!!

M Jan 31 2017 12:17 pm So at first, the main reason I watch it was because of Seo Hyunjin. I just love her realistic acting. This is different from Another Miss Oh and I'm not that fan of medical dramas. (I've only watch 3 or 4?) but I was so surprised of how good this drama was! I couldn't even stop watching after the first ep. The last drama I watch completely last 2016 I think it's Another Miss oh? I watched UF and other k-dramas but I couldn't even complete it. It wad just I couldn't find any dramas now that made me feel like AMO, Six Flying Dragons etc.. I can say it is the best medical drama out of those 3 or 4 dramas I've watched. I fell in love with all the cast! Like it was like a real, everything felt real! Just like Master Kim said in their interview, that it was fake but they made it possible like it was so real and even the operating scene took them 20 hrs to film. I was so amazed with all the hardwork they portray. The chemistry between my Hyunjin and Yeonseok was so great!! Like I ship her more with yeo more than eric but no, the moment Yeonseok entered the game, it was now him and her. So I pray that this ship will last! They are so comfortable with each other even off-screen. I pray that they become real as a couple hahaha pls (delulu much) Overall I'm so sad that another GREAT drama is finished. I don't know what to do anymore. No more Seo Hyunjin ㅠㅠ I hope she'll have a successful 2017 and all the other cast too! I want them to be together again if possible ? I want to watch other dramas of them before, but I think it would be different. It's like they are a whole body that I can't replace or lose any part. I can't imagine now Hyunjin with different leading men ? what did you do to me Yeonseok aaaah. I will miss the CUT of Kim Sabu, The angry moment of Ms. Oh, Mr. Park voice and knight and shining armor moment, Do In Beom poker or angry face lol, Manager Jang so hyper and talkative personality, Mr. Nam and his restau, Yeonhwa's silently crushing with Dr. Kang and especially Dr. Yoon and Kang SO SWEET moments ? plus the Doldam hospital and even the likes of Pres. Do and Dr. Song ? Thank you so much SBS, the production, staffs and director for bringing such a wonderful drama! I'm thankful that you have given me a chance to watch a k-drama again tho It's unfortunate It will take months again to get over with this drama huhu ㅠㅠ ONE OF THE BEST K-DRAMA! ??

Gara Jan 31 2017 12:04 pm This drama is truly a masterpiece...I've watched quiete numerous korean medical/medical related drama including Good Doctor, Medical Top Team, Doctors/ Doctor Crush, Yong Pal, Doctor Stranger etc. but RDTK so far is the best...For me it's one of the Best Korean Drama ever....I've watched almost 200 kdrama for 11 years and RTDK could be on my Top 10 list of best quality kdrama...I hope RTDK could be nominated for 53rd Baeksang Award this 2017....Kudos RTDK Team!!! 100% recommended

Diana Jan 30 2017 1:33 am I have a question. Chairman Shin said there are something he would say to Kim Sabu after the surgery, and I think it's something big so he asked Manager Joo to keep it as secret cause Chairman Shin wanted to say it himself... So, what was it? The cancer? Or what?

kdramalover97 Jan 29 2017 8:27 am Can any kind soul tell me the name of the english song that Dr. Kim always listen to on his radio/ cassette player? Thanks a lot!

bmr39 Jan 26 2017 10:52 pm This is a series of exceptional quality for the excellent writing, directing and acting.

Episode 21 is another good episode  about the challenges of treating HIV patients and the world-weariness of a doctor who dedicated long years of her life to treating victims of wars or natural disasters with Doctors without Borders.

But the entire series itself leaves us hanging up in the air.

There is no resolution of any kind (either sophisticated or simplistic) to the conflicts between some key staff of Geosan University Hospital in Seoul and its small affiliated Doldam Hospital in the town of Yongson.

What happened?

man Jan 26 2017 5:44 am @khem. search "Various Artists - Remember (Romantic Doctor, Teacher Kim 낭만닥터 김사부) OST" on youtube

Nicey Jan 26 2017 3:11 am Very nice drama, Bad ending..!

khem Jan 25 2017 11:19 pm i really love various artist music in ep14 at 2.43.if you know,please tell me

Nimi Jan 25 2017 10:22 pm A very good drama. I enjoyed every single episodes. The story line was good and the cast was wonderful. Hoping for the second season of this drama as I feel the story line has ended abruptly. Season 2 please?

Planetocenf Jan 25 2017 8:37 am Thank you, romantic doctor kim sabu. I got a really good time while watching this drama. So many laugh, smile and also tears. One of tje best drama i've ever seen. I gonna miss it

Kaddicto Jan 25 2017 3:32 am "Lim Soo-Jung was first offered the lead female role, but declined."

too bad..if not we can see their chemistry in this drama too as they used to act together inn perfect proposal..but seo hyun jin also is a good actress..:)

SHJ Jan 24 2017 7:25 pm seo hyun jin <3 <3

Migthy Thor Jan 23 2017 9:00 pm Very nice medical drama! I enjoyed watching it till the end! Cast was really great !!!

Zohra Jan 23 2017 5:17 am This drama was really amazing.Master Kim and all the cast played their role really well.

Malditang Bugay Jan 22 2017 8:01 pm Decent story, enough to keep interest up and the story on-going. Hats off to the actors, characters and the whole team. Teacher Kim is the perfect doctor you want on your side if you ever need one! Overall, a super enjoyable drama.

Vira Acosta Jan 22 2017 1:20 pm Nothing short of the best: this made me skip 2 meals for a day; made me stay at the house for the weekend; made me so merrily unproductive for 2 days; made me choose to watch this over my academics. Romantic Doctor Teacher Kim is the most realistic, detailed and awe-inspiring medical Kdrama ever!!!! i just cant get over the fact that i no longer have episodes of it to watch. :( PART 2 PLS!!

bbbbee Jan 21 2017 9:26 am Awesome. Not enough word to describe the perfection of this drama.The characters are unique, makes me drawn to the story. I want Romantic doctor, teacher kim 2 so bad T_T.

jeremie Jan 21 2017 7:56 am Is that really the Ending? I want more.. I want another episode. No. I guess I NEED it. this is the best ever kdrama I've watched.. please tell me is episode 21 the last?????? its not right? please????

Scyld Jan 21 2017 12:06 am I rarely give my comments from the kdrama that i've watched! This drama is definitely the best for me...I love the show and the characters. This one is awesome, great, brilliant, and i think all positive definitions must be told in this drama...I wanna say thank u to the writers, director especially the casts and those who made this drama realized. My heart is full of joy as I watched every episode. Hoping that the writer of it will give another magnificent and exceptional drama for this year 2017...#KOMAWO to all

KricketSC80 Jan 19 2017 7:44 am I've never been a fan of Hospital/Doctor dramas (this includes the US shows), but for some reason this show has me drawn to it. The storyline is simple and very entertaining w/o a lot of love drama mixed in, which I enjoy from time to time. It was more about the doctors themselves and how they deal with the patients. I was invested in the characters and what would happen next. I wish this would continue on b/c I would really watch another season if they make one!

lou Jan 18 2017 2:02 pm This is the very first time for my 28yrs of existence to write and give a compliment with a drama series like this. Everything was so amazing for me!!!Big credits to the producer, casts, writers and to the whole team. This is not just a drama but mix of moral values, jurisdictions, priorities, rules, romance, medical terminologies, pride and etc.!! I can't say anything more but WOW!!!! You did a great job guys!!! I salute the writer for making this kind of drama!! you are such a big WOW!!!! This drama made me realized to continue my career. After my contract here i will make sure to start first with refresher course to regain my confidence! Thanks for this drama!!! I hope you could make more a very nice and full of sense drama like this. You are all amazing!!!Congratulations!!!! ????????????

LKB Jan 18 2017 1:36 pm WOW That has to be the best 'prequel' or special episode I've seen in ANY KDrama... it just felt like a new chapter, a true, legit REAL episode (not just a way to either wait for a new show with summary compilation stuff or stuff the ratings)... so I LOVE the producers for giving us another full hour of quality without some inevitable host showing us the favorite/most viewed moments of the show... It is also a wonderful 'closing' to imagine the beautiful tomorrows of ALL the couples: the leather-meets-satin sexy fiesty lady and her aegyo-so-cute lil fancypants+twinklyeyes mister duo, the cute giggly main young couple, the reunited-and-it-feels[and sounds, with the superb soundtrack!]-so-gooood romantics, and the triangle of curiosity around their Chinese-Korean doctor in her one-sided crush... lucky lady has the love at first site cutie Park but wants Kang Dong Joo? Say WHAT? Of course, the real couple to be=her and the arguing-turning-to-loving one... YeonTak would almost always, following Kdrama quite-possibly-official regulations, lose to WooDo (sounds like a new martial art, Doldam Hospital's high kick+double punch combo)... when only one side is attracted, it's always just one side in Kdramaland... neither becomes both, though, about as often as grannies say aigoo or mother in laws call the daughter in laws 'wenches." :P

Fan ? Jan 18 2017 8:41 am I want moreeeeee ??? the best medical drama so far!!

GS Jan 18 2017 6:16 am Oh man the prequel only left me wanting more.. the withdrawal is real..

sf Jan 18 2017 4:50 am @Maria you are right. My impression when I saw her was that she is Dr. Kim's female version. Her appearance is so manly but she has a very, very beautiful voice.

Request Jan 17 2017 7:58 pm There's so many request to make season 2, can you consider it?writer, producer and casts?

Hunter Jan 17 2017 7:09 pm This is seriously the BEST hospital based drama I have ever watched!!! And I have watched a few. It has kept me riveted to the screen since day one. Please don't tell me they won't be continuing the series. This is a drama that could run for years and I would watch every episode. The entire cast and extras were amazing, the team behind the scenes done an excellent job and the writing was superb. I will wait with bated breath for a next season.

pgirlcl13 Jan 17 2017 9:43 am I watched this drama over two sites --meaning I ENJOY this drama. Standing Ovation to all within this drama throughout, Han Suk-Kyu made this an outstanding performances of a medical story (with the whole cast members). (Doctor ) Teacher Kim standing ovation to you "Romantic doctor", you truly had a story to tell, now I am looking forward to knowing the story of your first love. BRAVO! Two Thumbs Up to the writer and producer

Yoo Yeon Seok ❤ Fan Jan 17 2017 9:15 am Omgg!!! The drama just ended and I miss Yeon Seok already!!! I'll also miss Kim Min Jae! As well as Yang Se Jong, a rising actor hopefully. I wish more dramas for them!! ASAP

Jenny Jan 17 2017 7:34 am @Maria, that lady who appeared at the end of Ep 20 is Kim Hye Soo, the lead actress in Queen of Office. Watch that drama & you will love her!

Excalibunny Jan 17 2017 6:36 am LOL @maria Dr Kim might kill you for that

Castlin Jan 17 2017 5:00 am Superb!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Best Medical Drama Ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 100% Recommended!

Sana-tannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn Jan 17 2017 4:35 am @maria she's kim hye soo she's the lead in "Signal"

maria Jan 17 2017 3:10 am Wow this drama was so intensed...love every single eps..gut was wondering does anybody know who the woman (more like shemale to me) at the end of ep.20?

Oh Beans Jan 16 2017 9:52 pm The special episode doesn't seem to be only prequel. But wow, this is one drama that really needs a season 2..

Melinda Jan 16 2017 8:36 pm One of the Best Doctors Korean Drama I have ever watched. Waiting for the 2nd Season please ???‼ Every series has never dissappoint me ??❤???❣

KLovers Jan 16 2017 5:21 pm @jade there's still a special episode or we can called as episode 21 at following day

Mariem Jan 16 2017 2:25 pm Great storyline and actors!!!season 2 please

Elniel Jan 16 2017 10:03 am After watching the last episode, I couldn't fill my excitement for SEASON 2! Daebak!

drumie Jan 15 2017 9:08 am Am i the only one who curious about do inbeom's past??

Writernim please reveal about her past, what happen with her parents, her PTSD, her fiance was really has affair?, can we see she become the lead in a sugery or do combine with Kim Sa Bu?Please...

Excalibunny Jan 14 2017 11:05 am If Seo Hyun Jin scores another hit on SBS this year, Daesang 2017 is undoubtedly hers.

DongSeo Jan 13 2017 8:42 pm @Nicey yes, i hope so. Another drama with Dong Joo and Seo Jung, romantic comedy maybe??? ^-^

Nicey Jan 13 2017 7:09 pm Thanks @Rika for the info. Yes, I am addicted to this drama. I am sad because its gonna end already. Hope there would be season 2 or maybe another drama for the Main Characters, Dong Joo and Seo Jung, and a separate drama for Han Suk Yu. Good luck to all!!

Rika Jan 13 2017 10:30 am the best drama ever, i feel like watching E.R series or Greys Anatomy, depictly very same about the life of doctors and monster of the week type in every episodes.. and guys, did u know the writer of this drama is from the mastermind of kim tak gu, my most favourite korean drama.daebakkkkkkk.... and did u guys know that han suk kyu has won twice of grand prize awards from deep rooted tree and of course this drama...daebakkkk....and also has high ratings for 2017 korean drama around (3-4 millions each episodes viewers- from nielsen source)...daebakkkkk.

Precious Jan 13 2017 9:30 am This is the best medical drama I've watched! Kudos to the writer(s), director(s), staff and most esp the actors! Never got bored watching this! The ratings speak for themselves! Must watch!

Aihg Jan 13 2017 3:13 am Sh*t this is the best medical drama I've ever watched!!!! ... I'm so attached into it.. :( :( and It's ending so soon.. uwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa... SuperB story + Perfect Casting = Amazing Drama...........

chie Jan 12 2017 12:11 pm first episode was really awesome...i don't want to be hooked but i can't helped it...its getting more and more interesting..every episode is getting better and better..storyline was so good..the writers are genius...you guys really know..what ur doing..cast are so good...i cant see any flaws .... master kim... you're perfect!!! this drama always fail to disappoint me! such a work of art from the heart...the passion is overflowing in each episode... GOOD JOB guys!

master kim Jan 12 2017 11:08 am Best Korean Medical Drama ever! They have set the bar high for other medically oriented dramas to follow. The ensemble of actors are truly amazing too. Han Suk Kyu's comeback is triumphant, he even won the Daesang as Master Kim. Seo Hyun Jin is on a roll, first with Another Oh Hae Young, now with this drama, she's the one to look out for in the coming years. Kang Dong Joo is Yoo Yeon Seok's best performance to date, his performance is riveting. Yang Se Jong doesn't seem like he's a rookie. He fared well together with the rest of the actors. Jin Kyung, Lim Won Hee and Byeon Woo Mi were also at their finest and so was Kim Min Jae as Nurse Park. Congratulations RDTK! Side Note: It's a weekday drama (Mon and Tue) plus they set all sorts of crazy awesome records in viewership ratings.

sun_ Jan 12 2017 10:13 am I'm really love this movie .. every episode of the role played by actors and actresses are very impressive, and reliable ..it so fun, and I'm so exciting, sometimes makes me cry out of sadness, and always makes curious about what in the next episode .. but from all that I was very happy to watch this movie, never seen before the movie like this, and I wanted to watch the last episode..

Kamil Jan 12 2017 1:53 am @Wayer, it is morning soap opera. By the way, agb nielsen is more accurate and used by most news & reports.

yoon seojung Jan 11 2017 9:59 pm This drama is absolutely amazing! Didn't know what to expect when I began watching but I'm already up to date and I can see why it's so popular. This has to be one of the best dramas I have seen in a long time: the plot isn't overly dramatic, the scenes are believable, and the acting (!!!) is incredible. The staff at Doldam hospital are amazing - don't know what I am going to do when this show ends!

Wayer Jan 11 2017 9:39 pm Reading the notes again I just realized they offered Seojung role to Lim Soo Jung but she declined. If not it's like YYS reunion with his co-actors/tress ? But Seo Hyun Jin is classy in her role and her chemistry with YYS is flawless...yumm! Daebak drama!

But why they got second place according to TNmS rating? What is no 1 I wonder...

Lena Jan 11 2017 3:52 pm Intense drama...all the actors deserve to be recognized for their acting. One of the best drama for me. Congratulations to all actors and staff for doing a great job and for working hard tommake this drama believable.

Hanna Jan 11 2017 8:42 am The best drama I've ever watched, period. Every episode of this drama is filled with intense yet heartwarming moments at the same time, with a pinch of romance. The episodes are also consistent without being too draggy. Each of the characters were executed perfectly by the actors and actresses and were given their chance to grow through hardships. I encourage you to watch it if you're looking for a drama that not only keep you on the edge but is also heartfelt. Trust me, you won't regret it.

chia.s Jan 11 2017 7:29 am I REALLY LOVE THIS DRAMA A LOT ? awesome cast, awesome story. DAE to BAK especially the role of han suk kyu. Kim sabu is so kind, really romantic doctor.. love you ahjussi. I really like yoo yeon seok too, kang eun kyung (writer) thank you so much for this drama

josh khor Jan 11 2017 4:38 am Too good not to have a 2nd sequel. It would be a challenge to make the continuation matching or even better its excellence of the 1st one!! Would love the same actors in the 2nd sequel!!

Crazy fans Jan 10 2017 8:02 pm Make season 2 please......i'll miss Doldam Avengers so much....(>_<)

Bebski2003 Jan 10 2017 7:26 pm This is one of the best drama, I've ever watched. Every single episode is worth waiting. No wonder why they won the Grand Prize Award (Daesang) in SBS 2016 Drama Awards. All actors and actresses are brilliant in their own acting. I'm sad because it only have one episode left but I hope this will have another season with a great story. Congratulations to all!!!!

YSJ Jan 10 2017 5:05 pm Record 26,7% for over than 4 millions viewers, daebak!!

Seo Jung Jan 09 2017 4:52 pm @Ztr it's The Stranger song by Billy Jeol

Kamil Jan 09 2017 4:46 pm Congrats RDTK for breaking its new records of 26.0%!

Ztr Jan 09 2017 8:36 am Can someone tell me what is the english song that they play in the preview ep18 , preview ep11, and preview ep 13. Tq

Icefrizz Jan 08 2017 2:16 pm One of the best medical drama i ever watched!heart pumping scene which everyday encountered in clinical area.Cannot wait for next episode????

KookJimTae Jan 07 2017 11:15 pm I glad Lim Soo Jung declined the role as Yoon Seo Jung. Otherwise this drama wouldn't be as perfect like this. Seo Hyun Jin really did her best. Her acting was perfect and same goes as Yoo Yeon Suk. Both of them make the drama to be successful and they received many awards as expected.

Gary Tan Chee Leong (from Singapore) Jan 07 2017 4:05 am Things and events which we saw in "Romantic Doctor, Teacher Kim" did really happen and still do so in the hospitals in our real life. It depicts medical and healthcare workers' ups and downs, dos and don'ts, in their worklife and work place. It also shows how patients from all walks of life responded to their medical and clinical attentions, with or without respects and appreciative attitude returning to these healthcare providers. This drama "Romantic Doctor, Teacher Kim" is not only a heartfelt show, it is also a heartwarming show presented genuinely to our viewers. It came from a sensible scriptwriter, director, producer, as well as a great team of actors and actresses casted in it. Keep up this work for all ! Thank you very much !.....From Singapore's viewer, Gary Tan Chee Leong, 7th January 2017.

Dazzlin Jan 06 2017 8:21 pm Maybe romantic doctor the term romantic refers to the romantic era associated with heroism?

Jeana Montes Jan 06 2017 2:19 am @Blondbs, Mr. Goo is played by Lee Kyu-ho.

Blondbs Jan 06 2017 1:02 am Mr. Goo, the large muscular orderly, is quite impressive but I cannot find the actor's info anywhere. Any ideas for places to look? Thanks.

OMG HUMANS Jan 04 2017 11:50 pm does yang se-jong suits the lead actor for bride of the water god? or kim min jae. bc if njh gets it and lsk isn't the lead actress im gonna be pissed lmao

Tessa Jan 04 2017 3:19 am This drama is awesome! It keeps getting better and better each episode. The cast are all awesome too. Everyone is important and outstanding in this drama. I felt like punching director Do's face just now. His character is such a jerk! He nailed it.

anna Jan 03 2017 11:06 pm literally the best medical drama ever i even cried several times :') i usually get bored watching med drama because of the boring plot but this drama keeps me awake and makes me curious about what will happen next

Nicey Jan 03 2017 8:06 pm I am hooked with this drama. Better than Good Doctor and Doctors. Guys you may try also Emergency Couple a medical drama also. Happy New Year to all!

LKB Jan 03 2017 6:38 pm Wow, 25.1% rating for episode 17... so deserved! This show is brilliant! EVERYONE in it shines! Yoo Yeon Seok honestly had me a little worried early on; Jeju Gatsby (Warm and Cozy) didn't give him much chance to show his skill, and next to Seo Hyun Jin, who rocked the socks off of the other-other Oh Hae Young recently and also performed fantastically elsewhere, all the way back to, maybe before, Feast of the Gods, I thought he might be, like with Jeju Gatsby, a prop for the female lead... he's thankfully done really well. Of Course, Han Suk Kyu deserved that grand prize and I hope he's honored at Paeksang, too, since he is BRILLIANT here.

Dr Kamil Jan 03 2017 5:16 pm Congratulations for breaking new ratings records for episode 17 of 25.1%!

Matahari Jan 03 2017 3:01 am Love this drama, the best medical drama ever. great story and characters. indeed many lesson here that we can learn about. great acting from the casts, especially my favorite here yoo yeon seok and seo hyun jin. very recommended drama to watch. congratulation romantic doctor teacher kim team for the awards, you guys deserve it

Pondering Stranger Jan 03 2017 12:42 am This is one of the best Medical KDrama that I've ever watch. Goosh, it really hook me so much that I stayed late at night

Teacher Kim teaches how to become a good doctor in order to be the best.. wow.. it was totally awesome.

Teacher Kim would be my Number 1 Medical Drama next to Good Doctor.

Keep it up.. Hope they could give us a good ending (unlike yongpal wherein I expected too much but seems like that drama end was been rush). Hope they could give us a happy and meaningful ending

fan from Philippines. :)

pja Jan 02 2017 9:54 pm the drama has not yet ended but they already won awards. On top of that, Dr. Kim (character's name) won the grand prize. Congratulation!!!! [This gonna put them in tense to feed the drama addicts with a satisfy closure.] Keep it up med team!!!

RDTK Dec 31 2016 10:48 pm Congrats to Han Suk Kyu for second Daesang, you deaerved it. For Seo Hyun Jin and Yoo Yeon Seok congrats to excellent acting awards, best couple awards, and best kiss, you both so cute and adorable. So too for young actor Kim Min Jae chukkae... Hope Yang Se Jong to get one new star awards. Congrats to RDTK best SBS Drama 2016...!!!

it'sm3 Dec 30 2016 1:00 am One of the best Doctor story ever ... Yoo Yeon Seok is always amazing, Seo Hyun-Jin (Oh Hae Young) great actress... Super nice story and actors are so effective. Thank you for such a wonderful entire cast performance .. Daebak!

Dr Kamil Dec 29 2016 7:14 am Very impressive medical k-drama indeed. So many lessons, besides the plot is good. Extremely recommended to everyone to watch it.

jjj Dec 28 2016 9:36 pm Very recommended ! Best k-drama of 2016 with so many lessons and the chemistry was just amazing

RDTK syndrome Dec 28 2016 4:48 pm The first time i want to become a doctor after watched this one.

ashie Dec 28 2016 4:03 pm This drama deserves all the love and recognition it is getting. The best medical drama, and probably drama in general, I have ever watched. I adore it so much ^^

Trew Dec 28 2016 2:45 pm Epic drama, so far best medical drama. Cast is superb Seo Hyun Jin is amazing. Please add Seo Young to cast as CEO Shim assistant. Thx

naebi Dec 28 2016 1:19 pm I seriously recommend this drama to anyone. The drama covers everything, and you learn so much about this profession, the good and bad. I have never been a fan of medical dramas, but this one will go down as my absolute favorite and that's really saying a lot. All actors are flawless and the chemistry between the leads is undeniable <3 Please give this drama a shot because you won't regret it!

1tqz Dec 28 2016 9:22 am One of the best drama ever !!!

Kdramatime Dec 28 2016 8:00 am Because of this drama, I am having a lot more expectations and interests in medical dramas(as this is my third one after Blood and Doctors) soooooo sad that it's ending soon

neloyah Dec 27 2016 5:39 pm My second medical drama after Doctors...maybe I should be a doctor too, This drama is just soo good!❤

Ivy Dec 27 2016 10:22 am This is by far my favorite korean series for 2016. Amazing actors & actresses. I'm so in love with characters and the flow of the story.

cece Dec 27 2016 4:22 am it makes me addicted with this drama. very very nice story line and acting. teacher kim can teach me what it is profession .seo jung is adorable doctor. she never give up with all of obstacles in her life. kang dong joo was shit doctor firstly. but after he met with teacher kim,he has changed and knew that teacher kim is boo young joo( legendary surgeon).but sometimes i wanna be surgeon like teacher kim.

Sandsiblings23 Dec 24 2016 8:59 am This is one of the great drama I've ever seen. The scenes are seem natural and touching at the same time. When I watched the 1st episode, I just want to watch it more and more. Love this drama and all the casts!! Daebak!!

BMR39 Dec 23 2016 10:43 am @jangshi. I agree with you. Dr. Yoon is indeed a most attractive character in a great series: She brings out so well the mutliple contrasts between the scientific, fact-based nature of modern medical practice , its legal and hierarchical contexts and the fact that we all learn not only from logical analyses but also from our emotions.

Script-writer Kang Eun-Kyung does a beautiful job of developing each character; and each episode. She excels at bringing out the pyschological differences between the ways men and women react to the same situation.

Actress Seo Hyun-JIn moves us all the time as Dr, Yoon Seo-Jung faces new professional and personal challenges. In fact  the acting is usually good to great, from leadig roles to minor parts.

Jjangshi Dec 21 2016 7:46 am Personally Doctor Yoon is perhaps the main reason why I'm watching this drama. I like that her positivity is actually changing the people around her and her determination as a doctor moved even the most eccentric Doctor Kim. Psychologically speaking, she is someone more driven by feeling than by thinking, which at times make her seem a little unprofessional, BUT I doubt we watch a medical drama hoping for a boring, ordinary doctor protagonist. She brings joy to the otherwise dull hospital setting felt with conflicts and politics.

Seo Dec 21 2016 7:22 am @Daisy and @ren You two so good in explaining. Agree with you...

ren Dec 21 2016 6:49 am @mia E I think sojung (seohyunjin)character is lk that. She is confident, cheerful, stubborn and a bit silly. She made u felt upset... so she play her roll successfuly. @mwoya. @1st eps her boyfriend was about to propose her but she told him that she got swayed by her junior (kang dong joo) aftr tht they got accdnt. So its not about chemistry. In ths story female actress has trauma. Everytm she gt close to kdj she rmnd the accdnt.

Daisy Dec 21 2016 1:14 am female actor was told to have the trauma of such a relationship. what else she feels slightly kang dong joo one of the causes of the accident (ep.1). it's not because there is no chemistry.. yoo yeon suk and seo hyun jin its very very smart in act ps:i'm sorry for my bad english language

retard alert Dec 21 2016 1:00 am @mwoya you must be watching a different drama. hahaha

Mwoya Dec 20 2016 10:28 pm Pretty good drama but lack of chemistry. Seo Hyun Jin seems scared of Yoo Yeon Sook all the time and rather timid that makes all romantic scenes got no feelings especially in kiss scene episode 14.

azurixa Dec 20 2016 10:22 pm Love this drama! Yoo Yeon Seok fighting! The ratings is higher than LOTBS, though I love both LMH and JJH. But Goblin is my #1 :).

Tata Dec 20 2016 10:01 pm DAEBAK!! as long i watch about doctor drama,,, this is the best one lead player, each character, message in each condition,, very detail drama two thumbs up for director and written,, excellent

Mia E Dec 20 2016 1:53 pm Great drama. The only bad thing about this drama is the female lead. Her character makes me crazy. She is supposed to be this intelligent doctor but her actions are really unprofessional in some instances.

Mia E Dec 20 2016 1:47 pm I really like this drama. It is well written and fast-paced. There is rarely a dull moment. My only beef is with the main female lead. I don't know whether it's the way the show is written or the actress itself, I find her character really annoying. She is supposed to be an intelligent, gutsy doctor but her actions sometimes are just over the top and idiotic.

Dimpy Dec 20 2016 12:36 pm Thisis the best medical drama I've ever seen....keep going

matcha Dec 20 2016 8:55 am daebak,tv rating of this drama is high. so why i can't find any articles about this one?

Maya Dec 20 2016 6:13 am This drama is awesome!!! I love it! ♥♥♥

Someone Dec 19 2016 8:17 am Guys if you want the ending song to the drama its billy jones The stranger Its sooooo good

OST seeker Dec 16 2016 12:56 pm Can I talk about the most frustrating thing about this drama? It's their incredibly slow rate at releasing their OSTs!! I've been waiting for the ending song for so long and it's killing me! ? Other than that it's awesome and I'm totally in love with teacher Kim ?

Dr. Kang Dec 16 2016 2:13 am Daebak... daebak.... to all crew thankyou so much.. ♥♥♥ yoo yeon suk keep fighting ma boy \°○°/

marjorie Dec 15 2016 11:50 pm this drama is awesome. good story hope the ending will be a happy ending. its a great drama with a moral lesson. hope all doctors are like master kim.

Yujin Dec 15 2016 6:33 pm I love love love this drama so much.. Yoo yoon seok and Han Suk kyu are the BEST. I just like how they give the life lessons on each and every case in Doldam hospital. I end up crying everytime I watch it. Love it. Deserves the Rating it has.

Juserfans Dec 15 2016 6:09 pm Loved this drama a lot! It teaches about life, making decisions...very meaningful drama.

Han Suk Kyu portrayed the role very well and of course I love Seo Hyun Jin since Let's Eat.

Ann Dec 15 2016 4:46 pm @Will He is Hwang Chansung, member of boyband 2PM.

Wii Dec 15 2016 7:52 am i like this drama so much.. i am always excited every week because i want to watch...

while watching this drama i keep remembering dr yoon seo jung's MESSED UP TANGO in another miss oh (i also loved that)

and dr kang dong joo from sistar hyolin's - one way love - that song is crazy i can't get it out of my head after hearing it once... i also remember reply 1997--- woohoo i love the reply series....

can anyone tell me the name of that actor in episode 11 who played Young Gyun (i'm not sure about the name, but he was that run away soldiers friend), i might have seen him in other dramas or i'm just confused if he is a member of some boy group ..

raapao Dec 14 2016 9:18 am Awesome drama ....doesn't get bored ......

Titi Dec 14 2016 7:31 am Ep 12.. so funny :D lol this drama was amazing as usual

Cool Dec 14 2016 1:48 am WOW.. its really different drama. And amazing drama.

ren Dec 13 2016 10:53 pm Omg i dont have idea that this drama has best rating. I mean no one talk about it. I really enjoying this drama. Its different from any mecal drama that has bunchs of romance and just view percent relate to medicals concerns. But this drama truly a medical drama lot of aknowledes i gt. But i wish there is romance in the future tho. I mean its already has some romance scene too and its amazing cuz they ddnt overdoing it. But seriously. Even if ive been watching this until 11. I dont know it has good ratings... just found out now and i feel good. I did the right thing to watch this.

ayuni Dec 13 2016 8:54 pm this drama was so fantastic? i really like.. this rate greatt

ggg Dec 13 2016 5:53 pm the ratings is gonna rise,rise and rise!!! goodjob cast!!!

Chenbaekxi Dec 10 2016 6:37 am This is an amazing drama! I just don't understand why people aren't talking about this..I mean just look at the ratings!

vigeza Dec 10 2016 2:38 am Previously, I saw her in another series,she was younger,if i remember corect the title was "the Musical"at that time she not impress me to much, but As an adult actress in this series is more beautiful and much better,i completely fell in love(sorry for my english but i'm hungarian is not my nativ language)

Lost Dec 09 2016 7:07 pm Dr. Kang fighting!! Yoo yeon suk good actor

ruby Dec 09 2016 8:01 am For me...this drama different from other doctor drama

BaseBall Dec 09 2016 4:17 am Nothing beats an honest day work, sincerity, trust, belief, excellent team work, present of mind, professionalism & great leadership. Great & wisemen think alike regardless where & when. The show brings out animal instinct in its most cruelest form with humanity prevailing at the right moment what the show tell us. Instead of making new year resoltion, watch this show learn lesson & make a humanity vow for 2017. BaseBall

Luliva lxora Dec 09 2016 2:21 am This story inspired me.. Tq

-@lthe@- Dec 07 2016 10:54 pm my nursing students watch this rigorously.

Bianca Dec 07 2016 4:10 pm I just started watching this movie, cos I have always wondered what made it have such high rating!!! Now I know better, good cast, powerful chemistry,the lead actress has always made me proud, right from the king's daughter and another miss oh??? saraghe❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Fighting!!!

hana Dec 07 2016 11:27 am one of instrumental soundtracks similar to sherlock series' soundtrack.. UK Drama

Sweety Dec 06 2016 10:35 pm Wow, there's a doctor couple in real life have similar love story with character Dong Joo and Seo Jung. They became guest of program TAXI in TvN.

ahjumma Dec 06 2016 10:26 pm @namina i didn't impress too much at first. After watching 4 episodes, i get hooked on it. A little romance scene, too many egocentric ppl, but it's okay to watch.

Hika Dec 06 2016 10:07 pm @Namina: Watch it yourself. People perceive things differently, so you cannot base on several people' opinions to decide whether a drama is good.

Eun Na Dec 06 2016 8:12 pm First, i dont like the lead female seo hyun jin. Second, ive watched untill 2 eps and~ hmm~ okay~ i hope i get more interest in the next episodes. I like the lead male cast, he has a very good body and very tall. I like the other casts too, except the lead female.

Brenda Dec 06 2016 6:24 pm @Namina, objectively there are many medical scenes error, so if you wanna see something related to the real 'doctor' situation, I guess this drama isn't for you. And too noisy because they always argue and yelling all the time. For me, most of actors's acting are overacted and trying too hard except Mr. Han. He's the only one who looks natural and we all know the reason because he's veteran actor. The romance, I don't feel any chemistry between them. The lead guy (Yeon Seok) seems trying too hard while from the female actress, she looks give a gap. From the behind the scene alone, I think Seo Hyun Jin feels uncomfortable with Yoo Yeon Seok who seems too touchy. Directing and cinematography is okay. Other than that, I think it just a so-so and makjang medical drama.

Ccho Dec 06 2016 5:51 pm Trying to like but something about it is not clicking for me. Some of the scenes seem overly exaggherated. Love the main female lead... but again, not feeling the romantic chemistry with the male lead. Feels kinda rushed/forced and unnatural. Really wish I could enjoy this as what the majority seems to be saying.

KLovers Dec 06 2016 3:49 pm @Namina I don't know your taste, but my opinion in this site is really honest, i'll never praised something this much if not accordance with my heart.

sayda Dec 06 2016 3:36 pm @Namina I enjoyed every moment

Namina Dec 06 2016 12:22 pm Is this drama good? I want a honest opinion please.

Christine Dec 06 2016 6:17 am This Drama is just so amazing everything was perfect, The story and actors are the best. can't wait to watch the next episode.

Clairr Gatchalian Dec 05 2016 2:44 pm The story is mindblowing. I can't predict the next episode and it's making me crazy. The thing about this is the authenticity of the actors and actresses l. They deliver each character amazingly. I hope to see more. Love from philippines!

KLovers Dec 05 2016 4:44 am Good story (this is rare story in kdrama, all aspect mix into one) Good script (the plot become more better in each episode) Good characters (there are unique characters and common character in real life) Good acting (all actor give awesome acting including cameo, none can be replace) Good chemistry (romance chemistry is superb, although

just a moment but they make heart fluttered, chemistry between teacher, friends, family, staff hospital, all perfect)

Good motivation (there a message can be drawn from the story) And...good rating.... Mansae....

Han geul Dec 05 2016 3:03 am I must say this drama is one of a kind. Something about it seems so special ... the characters are so good. Dae bak ! thumbs up to the writers ..

hwaiting !!

Sunny Dec 04 2016 6:32 pm I am not a fan of medical dramas. I have never ever finished a medical drama that I started. However, I somehow ended up clicking on this drama during an evening I was just relaxing in bed. And then here I am, completely engrossed in this drama. Something about this drama is so captivating. I can't exactly pinpoint it, but I just really enjoy it. I can say that I am captivated by Teacher Kim. I am not a fan of Kang Dong Joo, but he's not a bad guy, so I'm looking forward to see him grow. I like Yoon Seo Jung. At first I thought she would be obnoxious, but she's awesome.

Looking forward to more episodes and yay to good ratings! I think it's well-deserved! ^^

Mel Dec 04 2016 5:23 pm Cant wait for the next episode. Please come fast....

cussonsbaby Dec 03 2016 6:55 am So far it's an okay show. I wouldn't be surprised if this show tries too hard to be special in the future and then fails miserably.

The female lead and showdown between the doctors are the main saving points. The writers should be careful with the male lead's character. I think his image and chemistry with other characters are just too volatile. They could easily mess his character up with bad writings.

Other than that it's pretty generic. Just don't focus too much on the backstories then resolve those past problems with a lot of drama that would take tons of episodes (typical k-drama).

Noemi Dec 01 2016 8:58 pm Though leading actor is not that handsome, he has its own way of squeezing ours hearts, especially the dialogues they have with Lead actress. Nice one! please trailer for episode 9

erin Dec 01 2016 8:48 pm I'm so glad that this show is getting the ratings that it deserves:)

Audrey Dec 01 2016 8:19 pm Watch it because hyun jin unnie. But now i'm hooked and can't wait for next episode. And wow look at the rating. It come up every episode. Daebak!

Titi Dec 01 2016 7:39 am Cant wait for the next episode >.< Romantic scene please.. for hyun jin nuna and yoen suk oppa

Imo Dec 01 2016 7:17 am Wew,that rating is amazing.2 digit for every episode.Sbs give revenge for low rating in scarlett heart.I am not surprise for this rating,this drama absolutely amazing and have their enchantment.Han suk yu acting really perfect for kim sabu.I really really love his character.I think this rating will be increased for next episode.I always waiting for next.And i predict,han suk yu will take the best actor for this year.His acting make me must watching his other drama.I sure that can't make me dissapointed.

Syu Nov 30 2016 7:09 pm Good Drama...i'm excited to next eps....must watch..daebak

Syu Nov 30 2016 7:06 pm Good Drama...i'm excited to next eps....must watching...daebak

Daisy Nov 30 2016 5:47 pm Best drama.. you guys must watch it..

지친구 Nov 30 2016 8:01 am for gi : thats billy joel song, title is the stranger. another legend song reference in this drama, is material girl by madonna. eh and there's beatles too ^^

gi Nov 29 2016 1:42 pm can anyone please tell me what's the title of the song played before the preview of next episode..??? i kinda like it..

Lee Nov 29 2016 11:58 am a good kdrama, but they dont really care about PPE and steriization sometimes..

ryan Nov 29 2016 11:51 am I underestimate this drama because of the title, but it's the best medical kdrama for my opinion..

Yumi95 Nov 29 2016 7:00 am This is a very good medical drama! It uses many specific medical term and some newest medical treatment.. its really good drama for medical students cause not really focus on love..

Rojie Nov 29 2016 12:54 am Because this is just a DRAMA and I'm not a medic student, all I care about is the storyline, the good acting, their characters determination to learn from each other and save lives. Those things glued me to the tv screen. I love the story! Plus the love story is not the main focus here. I like that.

Aria Nov 28 2016 10:20 pm A very good DRAMA. Again, this is DRAMA and not real life. If you cannot differentiate between the two, you won't ever enjoy this. Just like in literature, a drama needs some exaggerations to keep people watching. If we will only base the drama scenes from all that is happening in real life, then it'll be a slice of life or documentary instead.

Marrie Nov 27 2016 10:53 am Although this drama got high ratings, but the medical scene annoys me so much, there are a lot of wrong and inapropriate medical scene, they yelled and debated in front of the patient, not using a mask, suddenly doin surgery without anestetion in an unsteril room, ohh good am sorry this drama is not medical drama

Anggun Nov 26 2016 7:57 am Chingu ya... This drama, not documentary film... Of course the situation and act will be not exactly like real life. It's all purpose to give dramatic impression so the viewer become more tense and excited. The content this drama more about medical rather than love story between character doctor. The medical scene make as real as possible (but not mean 100% as in real life) to realize if work as doctor is not easy, because it bet with human's life. In this drama describe to how great the struggle of a doctor, not just a doctor that usually describe in other drama as a work which life with luxuriously. And word " Romantic doctor" mean like character kim sa bu which very close with his patient, he not just heal but also care the patient so get just a little hurt. How his mind very sincere in his work, not pursuit for material.

And the chemistry about couple not always portray with hug or kissing scene, but can with a little skinship or starring eyes. Chemistry can be feel how no awkwardness between couple, they like comfortable each other.

Lara Nov 25 2016 9:35 pm Most of medical scenes in Romantic Doctor are so wrong. Gosh, how can they do this kinda of drama and act like this is happen in real life? Like in every episodes there will be blood spreading all over the faces of doctors and they freely enter any room? As medical student I feel insulted. Sorry for this drama fans. And yelling or debating in front of patients is no manner.

Amor Nov 25 2016 3:07 am I really love d storyline so far...it refresh ur mind how to be a good man..I'm in love with their characters ..how they conquer tribulances.. I hope it continues to amaze me..gl..

spugent Nov 24 2016 10:34 pm the translated to english title is so tacky, but i gave it a try since yoo yeonseok. glad i did, even though some dialogue is...typical...shounen manga/anime it threw me off but its just a very veeeeery little part that can be very skipped. i hope this opinion wont change to negative later.

Oppa Nov 24 2016 1:43 pm Nice nice 2017 welcome to school

sara Nov 24 2016 12:28 pm i'm not interesting at this at all...just waiting for January to come fast...because of Defendant

asfalsjf Nov 24 2016 10:30 am the young doctor is supposed to be a genius but is freakin STUPID i want punch to a wall watchin his stupidity !!! im just so annoyed wit hhis character cant get any stupider !!!

issy Nov 23 2016 8:08 pm I was skeptical about starting this drama due to the title and also the fact where I've watched medical dramas before and they weren't very grabbing in terms of the plot but I gave it a go since i like both YYS and SHJ previous dramas and I'm glad that I started because this drama has a great plot and cast and everyone does a great job at their role! Worth the watch legit..

1tqz Nov 23 2016 10:06 am I wasn't interested in watching this drama. The title Romantic Doctor was not appealing and I thought it's just another hospital drama, until Mr Han Suk Kyu appeared on the screen. I have not stopped watching since.

kdramafan Nov 23 2016 8:28 am very very boring drama,overaction, over rated drama, so annoying the hospital scenes are tooo much overaction, over all a bad drama

freesoul Nov 23 2016 4:06 am I personally think that this drama worth to watch. I was hooked since the first episode, although at first i was in doubt to watch since it is the third medical drama i watched this year. I thought i can perform the surgery already! jk

Nati Nov 22 2016 11:25 pm I don't like do in bum. I don't like him. I don't like him. Not talking about the guy who plays the role but the character. So annoying

Dakuunn Nov 22 2016 5:34 pm Wonderfull story and Realistic Medical Story. i will watch till the end.

루이친구 Nov 22 2016 1:09 pm for louie.. yah this isn't romance drama after all. romance is just a filler to medical plot. not medical is filler to romance plot.. if you want to watch such drama just watch dots , blood or doctors. and they praised for realistic medical story, so who care about f#cking chemistry ?? i bet you just watch kdrama for actor n romance...cmon girlzz kdrama world is so wide... they dont just selling love between man n woman..

Yul17a Nov 22 2016 9:04 am Ost in ep 1, head over heels kiss... Please upload the soundtrack! Or tell us the singer... I'm dying to listen the rest of that song... Hiks

Yul17a Nov 22 2016 9:02 am Ost in ep 1, head over heels kiss... Please upload the sountrack! Or else, tell us the singer, I'm dying to listen that song... Hiks

PROFESOR LOUIS Nov 22 2016 8:11 am nah.... now that most stupido one... if you dont like how the story proceed, just go to other korean drama... simple right... if you think you can make a better drama, why dont you create a script for your lustful sastification about a drama... stupid louie... your spell for louie is supposed louis... understand that....

nikkinikki Nov 22 2016 6:34 am ugh. the waiting game is killing me. I need more episodes!

nn Nov 22 2016 6:12 am haters gonna hate hate hate and they gonna rise rise rise

Louie Nov 22 2016 5:24 am Overacted, noisy and improper medical scenes. How can the doctor cleaning and arranging patient's hospital uniform? And in every episodes they always have this blood-spear-all-over-the-faces.

No chemistry between the young doctors. Yoo Yeon Sook seems hardly working to build the chemistry while Seo Hyun jin always looking half hearted. She seems more enjoying her scenes with Dr. Kim or other casts rather than he supposed to be love interest.

awer Nov 21 2016 1:17 am Marrie :nah thats why i wonder why they make statment "most realistic medical drama" eps1 was weird for me but drama is drama ,too far from realistic.

just enjoy the show

Marrie Nov 20 2016 9:15 am How could they do an operation without even using a mask?

yysloveksr Nov 20 2016 8:40 am The drama is good but I don't find spark chemistry between my Too Yeon Suk and Seo Hyun Jin even if they shared a kiss in episode 1. The only actress that best for Yoo Yeon Suk as a girlfriend is his Warm and cozy leading lady Kang So Ra. Their CHEMISTRY IS SUPERB!!!

Oceng Nov 19 2016 6:06 am this drama is so goo. i cant wait for the next episodes. The plot is so good and the actors are the best. I really love it. In actuakky dont have any interest in medical drama at all but this drama is so good

Forsythia Nov 17 2016 8:48 pm This drama is unexpectedly good.. when i first saw the news about this drama, i have no interest at all as i think it will be boring, well, another medical drama. but i try to watch the first episode and it is quite ok, then the next episodes feel so good. i am looking forward on next episodes. hope they improved and improved on each episodes.

Snail Nov 17 2016 10:04 am Isnt master kim will end up with seo jung? Ohh no

Angga Nov 17 2016 5:56 am Good drama, like SHJ. Wait the next episode

Titi Nov 17 2016 5:22 am I cant wait for the next episode >.< Good drama (y)

syaren Nov 17 2016 4:46 am Yoo yeon seok so handsome..

loly Nov 16 2016 7:59 pm Why every one who want to revenge became a doctor !!!

Fairy Nov 16 2016 7:22 pm Good drama... i love it

comrade Nov 16 2016 6:43 pm @Lala, I can tell you that this show is far better than "Doctors". Doctors is so boring, while Kim Sabu is so intense.

lala Nov 16 2016 4:11 am SBS obsessed about medical story. Like Doctors, RDTK has the same time slot, and 20 episodes. I hope this drama doesnt make me boring and not only romantic stuff like Doctors. Please like a title about medical. I want much more and focus about medical lecture.

Ruru Nov 16 2016 2:39 am I hate old man as main character. Thumbs down

lala Nov 16 2016 1:54 am i love medical drama and this drama seems to be one of the best so far.. hoping it wont get boring at the middle of the story :)

andy Nov 16 2016 12:59 am This is the best drama 2016!

The direction is perfect, the script is so good, the dialogue's are so meaningful; this has to be a must watch. Even little details like the titles of each episode is so thoughtful. Love how the romance is the side plot but it still intertwines with the main plot.

The only thing that made me hesitate to start watching this show is the title 'Romantic Doctor, Teacher Kim'; it makes sense after watching the 4th episode. But they could just name it Master Kim or something, the title is so cheesy when this whole drama follows quite a serious plot. But please don't let the title hold you back, watch it! It's that good and the cast is brilliant!

ks Nov 16 2016 12:16 am good acting but honestly the tension or the attitude of master kim and the new doctor is getting so frustrating. if they want us to feel that way then theyre doing a good job however i hope this doesnt drag on because again its too annoying.

lunakrystal Nov 15 2016 4:09 pm sometimes seem overreacting but ok

Titi Nov 15 2016 8:30 am WOW.. i love this drama from the first sight Hyun jin nuna was awesome as always.. Keep fighting oppa nuna!!! I cant wait for the next episode Again and again

Ishi Nov 15 2016 4:55 am It's not that good. The reactions of the doctors in er is too over acting. They are in er but at least still mandate calmly coz it's too panicking for the staff. In real life, they are not too oa.

nm Nov 14 2016 10:50 pm Nice but not that good. We need somehing more refreshing

it'sm3 Nov 14 2016 8:09 pm A must WATCH!!! Yeong Seok and OHY Hyun Jin .. one of the best ♥♥♥

him Nov 13 2016 1:18 pm Kim Min Jae in the drama. Omo!! His first medical drama. Too cute.

Tina Nov 12 2016 7:09 am Good drama. But seeing 2 episodes, nothing much is awesome or have wow factor

Mhaizki Nov 10 2016 11:46 pm Hope this drama is good just like the doctors (doctors crush). They have a good casting and I cant say for now if they have an interesting plot bcoz Ive just seen 2 episodes I will just wait every week to know if it is as good as other medical drama i've seen. But I hope i'll always see this drama in the top 10 every week.

Cia kim Nov 10 2016 11:31 pm I actually love Hyunjin unni, but the "about doctor" story make me bored tbh. And i still can't move on from OHYA. But so far the plot is interesting, maybe it'll be better if another profession exposed

Gyna Nov 10 2016 10:14 pm All medical scenes are meh. The plot is too cliche and too overact. I think they should just try another profession. Painter, pilot or animal keeper are interesting one.

Sally Nov 10 2016 7:47 pm I have a feeling, this might actually have interesting plot!

Fiu Nov 10 2016 4:53 am good cast and act too, i love doctors but sorry to say this drama better than doctors. can't wait for next episode

Blabla Nov 08 2016 10:35 pm Kang dong joo=kang hye jung. They have same motivation to be doctor. They name too "kang" hahhah. And the hospital look alike in doctors, maybe cause from sbs,right. Hahha.. yoo yeon sook is so good, but i cant still move on from parkdokyung-ohhaeyoung.... but this drama so far so good.

Tey Nov 08 2016 10:21 pm hey!! doctor michael is here!! michael from Ssangmun High and Yonsei University of Reply 1988 and Reply 1994!!! I wonder if Doctor Sun woo or Doctor Sseureki comes out here also!!! Fun seeing the first two eps!!!

Sansan Nov 08 2016 8:24 pm If drama producer produce drama like black jack (the gifted hand - mysterous surgeon ) then it's more intetesting...i hope this drama gives a promising satisfaction as one of the protagonist has a hand of god...the first episode is interesting indeed..

mikath Nov 08 2016 6:18 pm so far this drama is promising. looking forward to the next episodes <3

hh Nov 08 2016 5:53 pm based on writter(kang eun kyung) King of bakery,gu family book. i'm not suprised if this genre is melodrama. by the way first episode so good

Kkerin98 Nov 08 2016 12:23 pm Is it just me or was episode 1 so dramatic and so many things happened.. I love seo hyun jin!! But the kissing scene and car accident? WHAT THE HECK. Anyways looking forward to this drama!

japag Nov 08 2016 9:23 am i can visualize that the rating will escalate. did i just look down the writer another successful drama unnie seo hyu jin loving it so far though i think your character end up with the older guy :)

lik Nov 08 2016 8:29 am I like the first episode, it's not boring at all, i love the plot, seems like it's a bit melodrama?/ i love their chemistry so much

foreverhungry Nov 08 2016 6:19 am Seems promising so far! absolutely love the atmosphere of the first ep but sadly I don't think it's going to stay that way. I hope the following episodes don't disappoint cuz I really like the first one! Looking forward to ep 2~

CarolAnn1925 Nov 08 2016 2:27 am Heol... i like the first episode though.. its not boring.. and the chemistry of the leads is no joke.....

kikil Nov 08 2016 1:10 am Lin chiu you are the best.it would be good if everyone think like that

Andrea Nov 08 2016 12:29 am @lin chiu you have the best comment here so far. And thank you for that. :)

Puteri Nov 07 2016 9:57 pm Just saw the drama 1st episode, its good different from Doctors, Seo Hyun Jin is one of the best actress around and Yoo Yeon Seok its a good actor. The kissing scene in the first episode was explosive!! Thier chemistry

Grace Nov 07 2016 9:41 pm What is so wrong with doctor/medical them drama??? if you dont like it just watch other drama.problem solved... just like @lin chiu said...there are a lot other drama about medical but different storyline...and people still want to wacth..because like I said before THE STORYLINE IS DIFFERENT... As long the drama is good and people enjoy to watch why bother to look down the drama ?? -__-

lin chiu Nov 07 2016 9:20 pm @Rachel maybe Korea is running out for Doctors that's why they promoted this profession through Dramas lol...anyway there's a lot of series for the Doctors indeed but still i care to watch.. know why? though they are same Doctors but in different specialty there's Neuro-Surgeon (Doctors) , Thoraco-Cardio (Med. Top Team), Militar/Volunteer MD (DOTS), Autistic MD (Good Doctors) and even Vampire MD (Blood) and of course the unremarkable Dr. Yong Pal :)

Rynie KyuRyn Nov 07 2016 6:11 am I may be too early to post comment about this drama but...there are so many Doctors drama this year...and ancient drama also take place like flood... I need modern n fresh drama...not so many caught my eyes lately...all boring and lame plot...ermmm

kikil Nov 05 2016 10:51 pm "Looks like" chillin lol

Steph M Nov 03 2016 8:44 pm I totally agree! Doctors was so boring, and I really disliked Park Shin Hye whose acting was quite wooden. I also didn't feel the two leads in Doctors had any chemistry whatsoever. The last episode, I just fastforwarded so I could see the conclusion. Was not really interested but I already invested so many hours in it.

I may try this series for one or two episodes and see how I feel then.

jun Nov 03 2016 5:30 pm doctor again? hmm.. why am i prefer another job than a doctor? maybe a chef, secret agent, or what else, i like seo hyun jin 's acting since let's eat, i think cable tv has better plot of main lead profecy like eric as foley artist, or the man from drinking solo who is trainer of government employees, or seo dae young let's eat as insurance agent..

AJ Nov 03 2016 1:18 am The drama hasn't even aired yet but there are a lot of haters... don't watch if u don't like the plot.. -_-

nayo Nov 02 2016 3:22 am The drama has not air yet.dont too greedy or bash this drama. watch the show then u know how the drama is

Anna Nov 01 2016 7:47 pm Don't judge a drama by its earlier plot!!! Of course, hopefully, they make it different....if it's too similar "Doctors" writer may sue this dramas writer. I just checked this drama writer also wrote "Bread, Love & Dreams" or Kim Takgu, hopefully itll be good.

rasa Nov 01 2016 5:28 pm the plot like doctors? you mean park shin hye right? then im out, doctors is boring drama of the year

Rachel Nov 01 2016 8:04 am 2016 - A year involving A LOT OF "DOCTORS"

ANONIM Nov 01 2016 3:30 am haters detected ;P

Fara Nov 01 2016 2:03 am Are they serious the most realistic medical drama? Then it will become so boring lol. The teaser only show everyone are shouting, panic, fighting then suddenly kissing. So realistic huh? XD

anon123 Oct 25 2016 2:27 pm the plot looks like Doctors... doctor becomes teacher then somebody wants to be recognized by somebody... lol but lets see tho.. i might be wrong about this

sinta Oct 18 2016 7:58 am The music sounds a bit similiar with doctor x... looks promising...

lhay Oct 04 2016 4:28 am OMG! Im soo excited! I miss Seo Hyun Jin ! Yay!

march Oct 02 2016 7:55 am Why Lim So Jung declined? I really love her with Yoo Yeon Seok from perfect proposal. They did it well. But I hope Seo Hyun Jin will give the best to this drama. Fighting !

kkk Sep 21 2016 7:05 am yoo yeon suk oppa is not the main lead! ...sooooo disappointed ...so sad..I m waiting ur drama n its only supporting actor...y???? solo sad oppa.. :-(

Neri Sep 21 2016 6:27 am Yay! Another drama for Seo Hyun Jin! Lovely!

japag Sep 20 2016 6:18 am fighting rdtk ! from ph

dion mufty Sep 07 2016 8:56 pm seo hyun jin please accept!!

joy Jul 28 2016 8:21 am Cast Ku hye sun,I really miss her.

urikimoppa Jul 28 2016 6:24 am How about kim ji won? Sounds good right?

Carly Jul 10 2016 7:44 am How great will it be if Lim Soo Jung makes her drama comeback after like 12 years now:( but still i'm hoping for the best for this dramam i've always been such a supporter towards SBS dramas and will continue doing it. It'll be great if Shin Min-Ah/Song Ji Hyo be offered the role. Love both of them very much and well everyone who sees his acting should've known thst Han Suk Kyu slays everytime:)
