Best Doctor Korean Movie4/25/2021
The action from the chaotic procedures to the dialogue and editing operates at a quick clip, creating a sense of urgency, versus the slow, steady stride of the mothership, which, like most K-dramas, lets the scenes and emotions marinate to draw you in. (Korean shows also run a full hour, so they have the luxury to breathe more.) Dr. Shaun Murphys Best Moments on The Good Doctor (So Far) One major change is a completely excised storyline from the end of the Korean pilot: Yoon-seo ( Moon Chae-won ), the Claire equivalent, drunkenly stumbles into Shi-ons apartment, because it used to be hers before she moved to a different unit, and falls asleep in his bed.The series, which follows a young surgeon with autism and savant syndrome, is based on the Korean show of the same name (sans the The), which premiered in 2013.Daniel Dae Kim had been trying to adapt it for U.S.September to ABC with Freddie Highmore as the titular doc.
The Korean Good Doctor was a huge, award-winning smash during its run, which lasted only 20 episodes. Through our more-is-better American lens, that doesnt sound like a lot, but the most popular and successful subsects of K-dramas are short, close-ended runs of 10 to 24 episodes that air twice a week, as Good Doctor did. But dont worry, we watched a few episodes including the series finale so you dont have to. So how do they compare Freddie Highmore, The Good Doctor Photo: Jack Rowand, ABC. Shore wanted to hew to the Korean pilot as much as possible to establish the characters and setting. The pilot owes a lot to the original and certainly these characters to a great extent were there, he tells TV Guide. The pilot is almost a beat-by-beat replica of the original one: Shaun is en route to his first day at a hospital when he saves a boy who is struck by a falling glass sign with a procedure the paramedics on the scene dont know. Aaron Glassman ( Richard Schiff ), the hospital president and his mentor, is trying to convince the board that Shauns autism wont be a hindrance on the job and he himself wont be a liability. Shaun delivers the exact same speech, word for word, about how his pet bunnys and brothers deaths inspired him to be a doctor, which finally persuades the board to give him a chance. In both versions, the brother gifts Shi-onShaun a toy scalpel; medical illustrations float on the screen as our hero is thinking of or performing a procedure; Shi-onShaun befriends a female doc and works under an arrogant surgeon whos dismissive of him and is a total dick. If you had seen the Korean series before the American one, its kind of hard to judge the latter on its own merits outside of the performances and production since the pilots are so similar, right down to the full-bodied warm and fuzzy feeling they transmit a staple of Korean melodramas. The American version forces you to give it another shot or two to see how and if it can stand on its own. Joo Won, Good Doctor Photo: Logos Film Whats Different Since the pilot, The Good Doctor has deviated completely from the Korean version, as Shore had always planned. There were things from the Korean pilot I owe a great debt to but there were things I changed, he says. The show seemed very universal to me and the issues were touching seemed very universal to me. It was more, how do I make this mine How do I make the most of what I love about it And the things I didnt love about it, how do I turn that into things I would love There are slight changes in the pilot that set the stage for The Good Doctor s own storylines. One very American-esque tweak is a post-coital hospital scene between Claire ( Antonia Thomas ) and Kalu ( Chuku Modu ) in the pilot; there is no such hookup in the Korean one (K-dramas are also far more modest). Bonaventure is a general teaching hospital, paving the way for Shaun to treat a greater variety of patients and cases. In ABCs adaptation, Melendez ( Nicholas Gonzalez ), Shauns boss, starts warming to him a little more quickly over a handful of episodes, even allowing him to scrub into surgery at the end of the pilot unlike in the Korean version. Its plot points like that that moves the American Good Doctor along at a faster pace nevermind the fact that its 18-episode first season will come two episodes shy of matching the Korean versions entire run.
