I heard the Korean version of "Good Doctor" got remade as an American show. Some people say the American one is better because it has more seasons, but I haven't seen it yet. I wonder if it's as good as the original. Maybe I'll check it out after I finish the Korean version.

Yeah, the American remake of "Good Doctor" is actually pretty good! The actor who plays Shaun Murphy, Freddie Highmore, does a fantastic job capturing the character's unique perspective. I heard they're ending it with season 7, which is a bummer, but I guess all good things must come to an end.

While the American version definitely has its strengths, watching the original Korean drama is still a great experience. It's interesting to see how the story was adapted for a different audience and culture. Plus, it's always cool to see where a popular show originated from. It's one of those rare cases where the remake actually surpasses the original in terms of overall storytelling and character development. But hey, there's no harm in checking out both versions!

Nice to see "Good Partner" and "The Good Bad Mother" mentioned in the author's note. I already watched those and loved them! Definitely recommend adding them to the list for a more comprehensive "Good" K-drama marathon.

Good Manager is like that comfort food you crave after a long day. It's funny, it's heartwarming, and it's got that perfect mix of chaos and competence. Namkoong Min is a total gem in this drama. I mean, who wouldn't want a quirky, genius accountant on their side? Plus, the whole office dynamic is just gold. It's one of those shows that makes you laugh, cry, and cheer for the characters.

I think both the Korean and American versions of "Good Doctor" have their own merits. The Korean original has a certain charm and authenticity, while the American remake offers a broader appeal and a longer storyline. However, every time I watch the American version, I can't help but think of that "I'm a surgeon, Dr. Han" meme. It's like the show is constantly referencing it without actually saying it. But hey, that's just a little fun observation. Both versions are definitely worth watching!

Good Manager is the epitome of a feel-good drama. It's got everything: comedy, drama, and a satisfying ending. The characters are so well-developed, you can't help but root for them. Plus, Namkoong Min's performance is just phenomenal. It's one of those dramas that you can watch over and over again without getting bored.

I was pleasantly surprised by Good Job! It's a refreshing take on the rom-com genre with a touch of mystery. The characters are likable, and the plot keeps you entertained. It's not the deepest drama out there, but it's a fun and easy watch.

The American show “The Good Doctor” has 7 seasons. I have never watched it. In the 1980s, St. Elsewhere was really popular. I think it started the ball rolling for medical dramas. That had 6 seasons. I'm just not that crazy about American medical dramas.
