Just because you don’t like the actor doesn’t mean the drama is going to be boring!!!! I am not trying to be rude here, but you should at least try it and give it a chance

Lee Sun Gyun is a good actor. I like him especially in Coffee Prince.
July 5th, 2012 at 5:31 pm
yeah me too.. i like lee sun gyun in coffee prince, if i’m not mistaken he sang with yoo eun hee in that drama.. but i don’t like his role in pasta..
ok, maybe i give it try to this drama and i hope the storyline as good as ER (one of my fave american tv series)

I agree with sara……………
I’m looking forward too watch it…………..
July 6th, 2012 at 7:41 pm
I neither like nor hate Lee Sun Gyun. He has a good voice and he was great in pasta. But i hate medical dramas. Specially Korean ones which are somehow unrealistic with exaggerated emotions which are not suitable for medical dramas, like when the surgeon thinks about his love memories when his hand are inside the patient belly. I agree with you @ KDaddict, it’s a skip for me too.
