Hospital Playlist won't be everyone's cup of tea. It is a drama about a group of friends' daily lives; there is no complex plot, no dramatic climax, and to a certain extent there is no real conclusion to the story. It is a character-driven drama, and as is always the case with these dramas, it needs a solid cast.

Hospital Playlist's cast wasn't just solid—they were amazing. The screenwriter did a great job creating and writing the characters, but it was the skill of the cast that brought such charm and humanity to each and every character. They made me laugh and they made me cry, and most of all they made me want to root for them. I especially want to highlight Jo Jung Suk's acting -- this was surprisingly the first time I've seen his work, and I fell head over heels for his portrayal of Lee Ik Jun.

Another thing that I adored from this drama was how well it managed to portray happy moments with friends—small pleasures like eating together or hanging out together between breaks, moments that are hard to organize and that are so easily disrupted by hectic lives. This was something I related to a lot and I really enjoyed those scenes.

All in all, I adored this drama and it was almost a perfect drama for me, but if I had to nitpick, I'd say that I wished the character of Chae Song Hwa was further explored, because while I adored her I also felt like she had less character development than the rest of the main characters.

There are only 12 episodes but they are quite lengthy (the final episode is almost 2 hours long!), so that might (understandably) turn off some viewers.
