Luo Meilan's "bad mother" in the play resonated with the audience, and the role of the villain demolition boss is also deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. As for the actor Li Zhihui's performance is very good, the whole drama is still worth **.

The main story will be connected through the condition of several patients, depicting a series of rescue efforts by doctors at Ishigaki Hospital.
The storyline of this drama is very exciting, tight and rhythmic, without a trace of superfluous plot. The first episode shows a gripping medical rescue scene from all over the place, where everyone works together to treat patients and support each other, which is touching.

Score: 86 points of evaluation.
The starring roles of the movie "Model Taxi 2" include Lee Dixun, Kim Eui-seong, Pyo Ye-jin and Jang Hyuk-jin, etc., and the Douban score remains at 86 points on a level. The film uses a violent revenge storyline to bring the audience a familiar thrill and pleasure, which is loved and sought after by a wide range of audiences.
As an adaptation of the comics, the show excels in rhythm control, photography, and costumes. Although it is a drama to pass the time, the plot content is closely related to the current society, involving Vietnamese gambling, the elderly being cheated, the plight of orphans, cult problems, doctor transfers, crazy nightclubs, and so on.
If you want to mention the shortcomings in the play, the plot almost always creates pleasure through one-sided crushing, and lacks the spiritual pleasure brought by the battle of wits. The show has already confirmed its plans for a third season, which has fans looking forward to it.
TOP4, "Flashing Watermelon" is an amazing movie, full of incredible stories and wonderful performances from actors. Set in a small town, the film tells a fantastic story that keeps the audience entertained with surprises and laughter.

"Flashing Watermelon" is an unforgettable film that not only brings fun to the audience but also inspires love and gratitude for life.
The rating is 87 points.
Fantasy Youth" is a TV series starring Cui Xianxu, Xue Renya, Li Yun, Shin Yinxiu and others, with a Douban score of 87 points, a total of 16 episodes.
The story follows a pair of deaf parents who give birth to a child who can be heard, and then the child enters an unfamiliar space through a suspicious musical instrument shop and forms a band with the young people he meets, and a chain of stories ensues.
None of the actors in the entire play have undergone plastic surgery, and the plot is very reasonable, involving elements such as crossing, hot-blooded youth, chaebol daughter falling in love with the protagonist, car accidents, and overnight fame, all of which have been handled very well by the screenwriter.
If you want to mention the problem of this show, I am afraid that the title of the show may be misleading, but only the audience who has witnessed it can truly appreciate the wonders of this show.
TOP3, the psychiatric ward will also usher in the arrival of the morning.
Rating: 89 points.
The movie "The Mental Ward Will Also Welcome the Morning" starring Park Bo-young, Yeon Woo-jin, Jang Dong-yun, etc., tells the story of what happened in the mental ward, and the film received 8A rating of 9 points.
The show takes the form of a unit drama, with each episode involving a patient and a disease. While the first episode may be relatively uneventful, more and more cases will emerge as the plot progresses. It can be said that this is an encyclopedic literacy drama aimed at popularizing medical knowledge.
This series is very interesting, and the world through the eyes of the mentally ill is concretely presented through the lens language, so that the audience can truly experience the pain experienced by the patient.
Morning Will Reach the Psychiatric Ward in a light-hearted and humorous style presents a world where everyone can fall into a state of psychosis. Maybe you'll find resonance in it, and maybe you'll find your own way.
TOP2, super ability family"It is a story of characters with superpowers.

Super Alien is based on the manga of the same name and stars actors such as Yoo Seung-ryong, Han Hyo-joo, Cho In-sung, Cha Tae-hyun, and Yoo Seung-beom. The drama has a score of 8 on Douban9 points.
This is the drama series that Disney+ has invested the most in South Korea and the most expensive Korean drama of all time, with the cost of producing 20 episodes reaching 65 billion won, which is equivalent to 35.6 billion RMB.
In terms of plot, the screenwriter skillfully fused the theme of superpowers with the political history of South Korea to achieve the innovation of "localization". At the same time, a very touching love and family affection is shown under the appearance of superpowers. Superpowers are just appearances, in essence, they are no different from ordinary people, they also have family affection and love.
top1, re-translation: "Dark Glory Season 2".
Rating: 9 points.
Dark Glory is regarded as the dark horse Korean drama of the 2023 New Year, which can be called the best. Song Hye Kyo played the role of Moon Dong-eun in the drama, showed her strength with superb acting skills, and won the 59th Baeksang Arts Awards. This achievement not only brought her word-of-mouth recognition, but also greatly increased her popularity.
This story mainly tells the story of Moon Dong-eun, a high school girl, who was bullied at school and had to drop out of school, and many years later took revenge on herself and bystanders who had harmed her at the time.
Since the first season of "Dark Glory", Moon Dong Enli has used intelligent weapons to take revenge on the wicked without bloodshed. However, as the plot deepens, we will find that the reason why the heroine is able to take revenge so easily is actually the male protagonist who supports her behind the scenes, which is not her own resourcefulness at all, but the help provided to her by the male protagonist's financial resources.
Despite this thinking, the audience still gave this drama a score of 9, which is very worthy.
The above rankings are calculated based on Douban scores, but everyone's standards for good dramas are different, maybe you think one of them should be ranked first. So, in your opinion, which Korean drama will be the most popular masterpiece in 2023?
