Premiere Watch: Doctor Slump
by missvictrix
Time slot: Saturday-Sunday
Broadcaster: JTBC
Genre: Rom-com, medical
Episode count: 16
Global streamer: Netflix
Reasons to watch: Woo hoo, cute rom-com alert! Park Shin-hye and Park Hyung-shik are teaming up to bring us Doctor Slump, the story of two doctors who have reached rock bottom in their lives. They knew each other as students when they fought for the #1 spot in their class, but now life is very different [and our hero Park Hyung-shik is very swoony].
While the ratios for the healing/romance/medical elements are still unknown (I’m hoping for 50/40/10), the fact that we’ve got one of the screenwriters from My Roommate is a Gumiho here bodes well, since that drama managed to juggle a lot of things and still be fun. In terms of the cast, we can also look forward to Yoon Park, Gong Sung-ha, Jang Hye-jin, and Hyun Bong-shik.
TL;DR: Park x Park cuteness in a story of hitting rock bottom but finding healing and happiness once again
