New Heart

Hey Everyone!

So, I just finished another drama after awhile, called New Heart. It was mainly about thoracic surgeons and their struggles in their department. Indeed, in the Western world, thoracic surgeons are more popular, and the department is very difficult to get into. However, this drama showed that in Korea, it is not such a popular field because of all the losses and stress that comes from heart surgeries. The drama started with an interaction between Choi Kang Gook, a well known thoracic surgeon and Lee Eun Sung, an intern at a countryside hospital. After a heart incident with a patient, ES decided to go to Kwang Hee Hospital in Seoul to enter the thoracic department. Meanwhile, KG was requested to return to Kwang Hee since they were going to open up a new Cardiac Center soon. This was when ES and Nam Hye Suk were chosen as first year residents in the department. Initially, HS was very cold and only cared about getting the job done, but after witnessing ES's caring nature and passion towards the patients, she became a much kinder person. She also started falling for ES, but he did not want to start a relationship with a co-worker, since it may not end well and then it would become awkward since they had to remain colleagues. The rest of the drama revolved around ES and HS becoming closer, hospital politics, and various medical cases. It was an interesting drama because though there was not too much romance, the medical field interests me, so I found this to be a really good drama. It had plenty of dramatic scenes and lots of laughs as well. I would definitely recommend this drama to anyone looking for a good medical drama. I give this drama a 4.5 out of 5 stars.

A few comments about the dramas (SPOILERS):

- I really liked ES's jolly personality/optimisim
- The catheter insertion was hilarious (for the secretary of the state person)
- His first time in the hotel was hilarious
- HS cries too much!
- Not sure if they should be running around the hospital so much... hmm...
- MM was sooo annoying!
- Hospital politics is too much! *sigh*
- Hug from behind made my heart beat from a scene after a long time!
- Way she stopped talking to him to get his mind off the pantient was cute
- I love all the idol dances... Wonder Girls/Big Bang
- Aww nerve damage... luckily ambidextrous
- When KG had to go back... it was so sad
- 4th year resident and MM make an odd couple

That's it for now.

I'm off,
