Good Doctor (2013)

A voir absolument - bien meilleure que sa copie US

Ce drama traite de l'intégration, au sein d'un hôpital, d'un interne en chirurgie pédiatrique avec "autisme".

Il va devoir affronter de multiples difficultés, la discrimination, etc. mais va peu à peu les surmonter en démontrant ses capacités, prenant peu à peu confiance en lui, grâce l'amitié et à l'amour qu'il saura inspirer.

La série, comme toutes les séries médicales, traite aussi des rivalités au sein de l' hôpital.

La Version coréenne (qui est la version originale) est bien meilleure que version US, et l'acteur qui incarne le ML est vraiment excellent !!

le droit à la différence

Au fur et à mesure de ma vision :

1 - J’ai commencé <"Good doctor", je n'en ai vu qu'un épisode encore mais l'entrée en matière est déjà excellente, pas besoin d'attendre 5 épisode pour commencer à voir les choses se mettre en place ... J'ai eu beaucoup de plaisir à voir passer des têtes connues (comme de vieux potes qu'on retrouve : le directeur de l'hôpital que je venais de vois dans Two weeks, par exemple, et les femmes aussi, pour une fois, vues dans SKKS, bad guy, ou painter of the wind) et bien sûr Joo Won qui est assez estomaquant dans son personnage d'autiste savant !! Si la qualité reste à ce niveau jusqu'au bout (et tout ce que vous en dites me le laisse espérer  ) ça va être génial !  

2 - Merci C……. pour ton avis, et déjà je peux dire que je le partage concernant les querelles de pouvoir, je ne sais pas comment ça va tourner (vu que 3 épisodes) mais je les trouve trop présentes, j'aurais aimé qu'elle soit secondaires par rapport à l'histoire principale, qui est quand même le fait surprenant de ce médecin autiste ...  Mais ce drama est vraiment palpitant, passionnant, et Joo Won est vraiment surprenant de justesse !!!  

3 - J’ai bien avancé "good doctor"jusqu'au 6 (c'est que c'est plus d'une heure à chaque fois   ) ça me plaît toujours autant, les luttes de pouvoir et la vie des personnages s'équilibrent mieux au fur et à mesure qu'on en apprend plus sur eux. Un nouveau personnage est entré en scène, et lui aussi je l'ai vu plusieurs fois, et en général dans des rôles de traîtres ... le genre de mec qui tire les ficelles en coulisses ...   J'avoue ne pas très bien comprendre toutes ces manœuvres et surtout pourquoi ils veulent virer un service où il se passe tant de chose passionnantes et innovantes !!!   Toujours en admiration devant le jeu de Joo Woon, et je me referais bien Gaksital, tiens !!   Mais 28 épisodes ....  


4 - Je continue "good doctor" avec grand bonheur, et souvent la gorge serrée et les yeux humides quand même ... mais dites-moi, Park Si On ne serait-il pas un lointain descendant de Geol Ho, dont il aurait hérité le syndrome du hoquet ???  (Allusion à SKKS ) 
Là j'ai arrêté par raison vu l'heure à la fin du 10 (le cas du petit chanteur) et j'aime autant vous dire que je sais à quoi demain soir sera consacré !!!
5 - Il ne me reste plus que deux épisodes de Good doctor et j'adore, j'adore, j'adore ce drama qui fera partie du tout petit cénacle des dramas que je revois encore et encore ... Un des aspects géniaux c'est le savant dosage de suspense, d'émotion, et d'humour, parce que oui, j'ai vraiment rigolé par moment, en particulier lors de la répétition de Peter Pan !!! et ensuite la déclaration à l'envers avec Dr Cha et Si On est pleine d'émotion et de tendresse,
et quels acteurs !!!  


Ce que j’en pense :


Alors, Good doctor, c'est le bien, et même je dirais c'est le Bien car le personnage de Park Si on, c'est un vrai trésor !!   Bien entendu l'élément essentiel du drama c'est lui, sa nature particulière, la façon dont il est perçu, dont il perçoit les autres, et l'impact que son contact va avoir peu à peu sur son environnement. Car bien sûr il a des capacités de mémoires exceptionnelles, mais surtout c'est un grand cœur et comme le dit l'un des autres médecins "Si On, c'est l'atmosphère du service".
D'abord en but au rejet, à l'ostracisme, il va régresser se replier puis petit à petit, grâce au soutien et à la compréhension chaleureuse du Dr Cha il va s'épanouir peu à peu et ce cheminement est magnifiquement rendu, avec beaucoup de finesse et de nuances. Une belle idée du scénario également c'est le parallèle entre l'attitude protectrice(bien que souvent rude  ) de Oh Da envers Yoon Seo et de Yoon seo envers Si On, et ce courant va permettre à Oh Da d'accepter Si On puis de même devenir le frère qu'il a perdu, et je dois dire que cette partie est peut-être celle que je préfère !    
L'autre partie que je préfère, c'est l'influence involontaire de Si On sur les autres, comment par son innocence, sa totale sincérité il va faire sortir le meilleur de ceux qui l'entourent, car, comme on dit dans SW "il y a du bon en eux" !!C'est comme si Si On par sa seule présence dénouait quelque chose de coincé dans le cœur et l'esprit des autres, même la relation entre Do Ah et sa fiancée va s'en trouver éclairée.
Le troisième point fort, c'est l'humour !!!   Si j'ai souvent eu la larme à l'œil, j'ai presque aussi souvent rigolé !! La scène où les deux ennemis se réveillent le cheveu en bataille dans la chambre de Si On est hilarante !!
Le quatrième point fort ce sont les acteurs, absolument parfaits, naturellement la palme à Joo Woon qui m'a littéralement bluffée ! J'ai regardé sa filmo : il y a peu de dramas (5, vraiment rien, 9 aujourd'hui)) mais il y a Gaksital et Good Doctor, et croyez-moi, il vaut mieux n'avoir que ces deux là que 25 autres !!!   
Ce garçon a un grand avenir d'acteur, si les petits cochons ne le mangent pas !!!
Moon Chae Won, déjà remarquable dans "painter of the wind" et "princess man" est extraordinaire de justesse, de sensibilité et de finesse dans le rôle du docteur Cha, qui va apporter un soutien sans faille à Si On, tout en lui remontant énergiquement les bretelles si nécessaires.
Joo Sang Wook, que je découvre, est parfait dans le chef tutélaire, rude mais chaleureux, et la répétition de Peter Pan où comment Si On manœuvre pour le faire jouer est un grand moment !!!       
Alors, le scénario : bien construit, on ne s'attarde pas vraiment sur les intrigues de pouvoir comme le début me le faisait craindre, elles ont la place qu'il faut pour l'histoire et évitent de focaliser tout sur Si On, ce qui serait lassant. J'ai eu peur qu'on se casse la figure dans une romance triangulaire à un moment, (avec les Coréens, faut se méfier, souvent ils tombent dans ce genre de piège   ) mais Dieu merci, rien de tel !!
Et maintenant la fin : c'est là qu'il y aurait un bémol, pour moi. Ce n'est pas que j'aurais voulu que ça finisse mal, grand Dieu non, jamais ! Mais quelque chose d'un peu moins parfait, peut-être, enfin je pinaille, vraiment. C'est qu'il y a une telle tension d'émotion tout le temps du drama que la fin paraît un peu molle, mais encore une fois ce n'est qu'un détail insignifiant !
Ah ! Et puis j'ai rarement vu un drama aussi pudique ! Un seul baiser, et même pas, un bécot de rien du tout !!! Comme ça aurait été intéressant de voir comment Si On abordait cet aspect des choses (sans aller trop loin, bien sûr) mais même Do Ah et sa fiancée sont d'une pudeur qui touche à la froideur, et je me demande, comme le christianisme est de plus en plus présent dans les dramas coréens, si les Evangélistes ne sponsorisent pas tout ça, avec l'obligation de rester correct !!    Je rigole, mais qu'à moitié seulement !!    
Enfin, 20 épisodes sans que jamais je me sois dit "c'est trop looooong !", croyez que ça n'arrive pas souvent !! Les chansons n'étaient pas du tout envahissantes et comme j'ai éradiqué les paroles, c'était parfait !!
Eh bien, c'était un long post, mais le drama le vaut bien !!

Magnifique drama. J’avais commencé la version américaine avant de regarder le drama coréen. Personnellement, j’ai largement préféré le drama coréen pour plusieurs raisons. Tout d’abord, les acteurs sont magnifiques et Joo Won joue à merveille. L’histoire est originale et pose les questions sur l’acceptation de la différence et du handicap. Le personnage Park Si On introduit avec brillo ces questions et nous amène à poser un regard différent, Si On est semble très enfantin et immature au début, mais peu à peu on découvre toutes les facettes de ce personnage, qui n’est pas si différents des autres… et qui a une grande sensibilité. On voit l’évolution des personnages tout au long du drama avec plaisir. Des larmes, des rires et du suspense, ce drama nous emporte dans les secrets d’un hôpital.
A la fin des 20 épisodes, déçu que le drama s’arrête, j’aurai aimé que l’histoire continu encore…

Centered on a regular man set apart due to his extraordinary condition, Good Doctor is an emotionally rich tale of love and healing. High ratings mark its passing and, while I cannot dub it perfect, this drama has some sort of special spark. Definitely worth a look, whether you enjoy the leads or are just looking for a unique experience.

Despite billing itself as a medical drama which features a savant surgeon, Good Doctor evolved into quite a different animal. While it does feature bloody surgeries and a hospital atmosphere, this drama yearns to be an inspiring slice-of-life. Most patients serve as episodic cases and often provide the backdrop for the hospital staff to interact. Though the medical side was handled relatively well, it often felt gimmicky. Developments between the hospital staff seemed much more important to the writers. To their credit, character interaction is where this drama excels. The exchanges may elicit wide ranges of emotions from viewers, anything between sorrow and anger to warmth and joy.

Certain things did not work as intended. Hospital politics feature in most medical dramas, but they were boring and unnecessary in Good Doctor. A particular romantic red herring exists (as they always do), taking up a large chunk of episodes. When things are finally sorted, the "proper" progression initially feels jagged and too quick -- despite the pairing itself being very nice and even desirable. This phenomenon of sudden forward motion occurs also with the lead character, as he moves from extended developmental purgatory to huge successive change. Even these issues are somewhat forgivable though, due to the power and likability of the actors.

As you might have garnered, Good Doctor features an earnestly talented cast. Joo Won shines at the top as gentle-hearted savant Park Shi On. Everything about his performance, from the way he held his body to his speech, spoke of good research and execution. Prickly Kim Do Han is something of an internet sensation, lovingly dubbed Doctor Wook ("anger") by Korean netizens. Joo Sang Wook brings natural charisma to this role, believably building a man colored by both by hardness and secret warmth. Though she was handed a character with little back story, something about Moon Chae Won just clicks. Her Cha Yoon Seo might dole out less impact, but she serves her purpose well. All three have wonderful chemistry, in any combination. Of the supporting cast, nearly everyone involved with the hospital politic aspect of the plot felt wasted. This is especially true of Kim Min Seo, Na Young Hee, Chun Ho Jin (who always seemed thunderstruck).

Many musical tracks were great, especially instrumental pieces. Various themes adopt an ethereal quality and a nonsense language reminiscent of Yuki Kaijura; these are masterful. Unfortunately, traditional vocal pieces are far more numerous than expected. This led to many forgettable ballads; during a particular episode, they actually stuffed every single into the action -- and topped the final scene off with an entirely new song! Despite this slight overcrowding, most were at least decent. Standouts include "I Am In Love" (2BiC), "How Come You Don't Know?" (Kim Jong Kook), and late game offering "Love Medicine" (Joo Won).

The beginning of the drama really ticked me off, because the characters were really jerks. I didn't know what to think when even the characters that I thought of as "good" guys were totally horrible to Park Shi On. However, that is what makes this drama great in the end. The character development is worth all the pain at the beginning. As the story progresses, there are reasons behind the characters actions. I'm not much for medical dramas, but this is so much more that. I didn't really think of it as just a medical drama. I thought it touched on something that is really important being the way people treat people with disabilities. Sometimes I think we forget that they are people with emotions just like everyone else. I have friends with children that are autistic and I hate the way some people treat them. I also love how Park Shi On helped the other characters heal and become better people.

Joo Won is a great actor. His portrayal of genius, autistic Park Shi On is really well done. I don't think that is an easy part for anyone. I have seen almost all of Moon Chae Won's dramas and I find her acting to be believable. She didn't fail to be believable as Dr. Cha. I was really ticked at her at some points in this drama and I think that is due to her great acting abilities. The other actors were also good in this including Joo Sang Wook and Kim Young Kang. I adore Ko Chang Seok as an actor. He is really good in all the dramas that I have seen him in. It was cute to see a cameo of Park Ki Woong in the last episode. Joo Won and he must be really good friends. Too cute.

The music is good and appropriate.

I might rewatch this in the future.

If you like an underdog story, then you can't beat this drama. I highly recommend it to everyone.

Just finished watching this show after faithfully tuning in every Monday and Tuesday to see each new episode! This one right here is a rare gem. Dramas that are this good are VERY hard to come by in the kdrama world. This drama wasn't good just because of all the amazing acting and character developments that made its story stronger. It was good because of the strong meaning behind it. This show teaches you about life, love, and overcoming your difficulties even when no one is supporting you. Looking at this drama in its entirety, I can honestly say that I have never seen a more meaningful,raw and emotional drama like this one. It's a "feel-good" kind of show that is like chicken soup for the korean lover's soul! And when the drama ends, all of the factors that might have been holding back your tears before will end with it. So get ready to cry once you hit episode twenty because the final show will let you know-if you didn't know by then-that this is a drama that you will never forget!

Good Doctor     
 
The story line of this drama is quite peculiar – the fact that an autistic person could adapt fully and work in a hospital nonetheless is quite impressive because in reality it is unheard of.
 
The pilot episode had given me the impression that it was going to be a very promising drama, then by the end of the whole series I proved myself right. Although like any drama, Good Doctor has it high and low points along with loop holes. Due to the unbelievable premise, I say the writer was very much imaginative although farfetched for having such a plot. An autistic person basically has a lot of limitation but given the patience and perseverance to the people surrounding the person with a disability, it could be managed. Setting those thoughts aside, I love this drama because of the story and characters. It was like watching the movie Forrest Gump only in a clinical setting.
 
The main character Park Shi-on (acted by Joo Won) was such a lovable character. During the first few episodes, he may be an annoying autistic man who knows everything but after awhile his character grows on to you even his mannerisms become endearing… or maybe it’s just me because I find him really cute and funny? Anyyyywaaay… not to get side tracked, Cha Yeon-so (acted by Moon Chae-Won) is a woman with a strong personality. She has this tough exterior but deep inside she has a really fluffy heart which has a soft spot for our main lead.

I am not going to elaborate on that or else I might post unwanted spoilers. As for the supporting cast, they are essential in the series because they provide the substantial element of acceptance depending on the character's relationship with Shi-on.

Music wise their is nothing really memorable about it except that it adds to the drama.

Good Doctor may not be in my rewatchable list but it is very much in my recommended one. You don't have to be a medical literate to appreciate this drama because there are notes which would explain the terms & procedures. Over all it is a wonderful drama and it has exceeded my expectations.

If you are hesitating to watch this drama or not, you should remove all doubts. This drama is good~
Story itself is very touching. It made me think about troubles which appear when you're different and how hard is to accept someone who is not like you. It is very easy to say but so hard to do. To try to understand another person and not to blame, not to hate. And characters in this drama have come such a long way, every one of them and it was so amazig watching their change. And I'm not sure that I' m strong enough like Do Han or Yoon Suh. And this is why this drama is so special. It makes me think, it makes me emrace the world as it is and to see beauty in it. Furthermore there were a lot of touching supporting roles.
As for acting. It was INCREDIBLE! First of all Park Shi On. I don't have words to describe how good he was. He was just perfect. He played so well that there wasn't even a thought that he is normal human being like all of us. It seemed that he was a special caring soul. I'm just so grateful that he was serious about this role. But other actors were also magnificent. All of them wew such a great team. I loved the complexity of characters, their richness.
Although this drama may seem a little boring and slow. But because of the fact that it shows human relationships and human nature it is right. It is a very good example how to make a very good drama. Watch it. I'm sure you won't regret it, because you can find something that you'll like. Such good doctors in a such good drama.

Now, before you start the drama, let me tell you some things:
If I had to describe the drama in a single word, it would be 'sincere'. Its sincerity is more apparent than any other Korean drama I have seen so far, and this is what makes it unique in my opinion. There is nothing forced, nothing fake, nothing that makes you want to punch the wall because there is no point or reason for it. You watch 'Good Doctor', and you don't feel like you're sitting behind a screen, but you are there with all the characters, in the hospital ward or the operating room, breathing the same air as them. It is hard to express the emotions that this drama brought out in me, but there was laughter and tears, a lot of pain and even more happiness.

I was aware that Joo Won is a fantastic actor by all the works I have seen, but this time he simply left me speechless. I had the pleasure to get to know some autistic people in my life, and the way he acts is simply phenomenal. His posture, his gestures, mimics, speech, even his GLANCE, Joo Won brought Park Shi On to life in a way that I hadn't thought possible. Even just for experiencing that, it would be worth a watch.

But if you don't, you'd me missing out on so much more: The medical aspect is really important in this drama, and they did a fantastic job. Now, I have never studied medicine, but all the surgeries looked SO real, that I was seriously wondering sometimes if they were just operating on props (I know they did, but... man!). However, what makes this different from other medical dramas, is the fact that Shi On has to deal with a lot of obstacles and prejudice, and he approaches things differently because of his (dis)ability. Secondly, it is a pediatrician ward, so we get to see a lot of heartwearming and heartbreaking scenes with kids. I was skeptical, thinking actors that young would surely ruin the drama. Boy, was I proven wrong. The kids had some of the most authentic and touching acting I have ever seen. Some of the veteran actors in this industry could learn a thing or two of them. However, the adult main and supporting actors in this drama equally brought out the worth of this drama. Cha Yoon Suh and Kim Do Han are clearly needed for Shi On to become the person and doctor he dreams of.

I see, this review is getting quite long, so I'll just get to the point: This drama is one of a kind and it should definitely not be missed. It is funny, touching, sincere and teaches valuable life lessons. There are no all-evil villains, but the reasoning of each of them becomes apparent. It teaches lessons about friendship, family and love. The only reason why I give this a 9 out of 10, is because near the end of the drama, I was lacking the little spark that was there during the beginning. I am not sure what it is, but there was a tiny little something missing, maybe about the romance, maybe about something else. But even so, it is one of the best I have seen and I hope it will get more recognition. 9/10

I was kinda exited to watch this drama for a wile and it didnt dissapointed me at all.

Let me start with the acting in this series is Super Good.The main actor (park shi on) played his role brilliant which is i think one of the hardest things to act like person with Autism i really wanna compliment on that besides that the other actors where also really good in this series.

In this series there where allot of good moments but also allot of bad ones,I found myself being mad at some of the (Bad Guys) inside the series.The story evolves around a person with autism with special abilities which only people with that sickness can have and turn them into something beautifull.This drama is certainly one which will leave you with some tears on some moments and that's all because you will love park shi on so much that you kinda start to like him allot.It was a real big pleasure to see things going forward each episodes and seeing him getting passed his Traumas he encountered in his child-hood stage.I really don't have much to stay on the story besides the fact that there could have been some more hardcore operations and ecxitement in the operating part,however that's certainly a small minus.Music in the background was simply amazing and fitting.

Conclusion: A Really good-feeling drama with a nice ending,A romance which you wont easily forget and some tear-drops along the way.

Am very happy i seen this drama and its a recommendation ^^

This is a drama that you'll either love or at the very least enjoy. While many will rate this drama with a score of 9-10, I'm going to give it an overall grade of 8. (To be fair, I'm a little picky and never rate a drama with a 10.)

Story
The first two episodes of this drama really grabbed my attention. Just the pilot episode itself was emotional, exciting, and funny without feeling forceful at all. The most rewarding aspect of this drama is the character development and interactions; it was very convincing despite the major changes in most characters. However, with that said, I felt there were moments of fillers. Also, despite being a medical drama, I would say this focused more on their relationships/personal situations, such that even for surgeries, it was more about whether to do the surgery or not (or that's how I felt about it)

Acting/Cast
The acting and cast were excellent. Everyone did a good job. Particularly, Park Shi On (played by Joo Won) did an awesome job in portraying the role of an autistic; I think he'll be highly recognized for it. Doctor Cha (played by Moon Chae Won) Also did a good job. Moon Chae Won is actually one of my favorite Korean actresses, but I was a little afraid based on the teaser trailer that she'll play a passive character. However, I was wrong and really enjoyed her character here as well. Their chemistry was also impressively convincing.

Music
I'm not much of a music expert, so I don't really have much input. All I would say is that it felt suitable, but not great enough for me to want to listen to the ost on its own.

Re-watch Value
It's definitely re-watchable. I rated 8 because I cannot ignore the fact that I would skip a good amount of parts. Although many dramas do have moments of filler as well, I still feel that I have to include that to the equation.
