I can’t see anyone playing Jo-won’s character. Korean dramas are one of those things that I don’t think translates all that well into American TV shows. No matter how modified it is, or how universal the themes, there is something about the way that Korean dramas portray emotions. They are so unreserved and unrestrained in the way they portray emotions that’s a direct contrast to the colder and more reserved way american Tv shows show emotions. I just think the two are very incompatible. And so its jarring to watch one thing being translated into another.
Lol i figured! I’m not going to watch this and ruin all of my memories about this show. It’s still one of my favourite medical dramas and both Jo-won and Moon Che won did such a good job at it. I’ll pass on the American version.
Really? I don’t understand!!! (irony!)
I liked the Korean version but I didn’t feel like the drama was ‘awesome’, just nice, so imagine my reaction to the American version, 10x worst then the Korean one…lol
