Watching Good Doctor – Joo Won does a stellar role as a young doctor with Savant syndrome. A real feel-good series, it will make you cry, it will make you laugh. You come away feeling happy.

      Yes, it was made in 2013. Since I am late to Kdrama and all things Korean/South Korean, many things are all new to me. Fortunately, it’s on Netflix. Never get tired of watching Kdramas.

      Wasn’t he brilliant in My Sassy Girl? He was one poor, hen-pecked boy! From his mother to that interfering sister to the princess…..

      And Baker King Kim Tak Goo with Yoon Shi Yoon too! Where is Joo Won these days?

        It was not easy for anyone to stand before the tour de force performance of Yoon Shi-yoon in Baking King but Joo Won not only went toe-to-toe against Yoon Shi-yoon in what was his (Joo Won’s) first TV drama (he had only done musical theater before that) but managed to hold on his own, … more or less. 🤣 He even got the girl. 😉

        I loved Joo Won in everything I have seen him in Yong-pal, Alice, Stealer: The Treasure Keeper, even the greatly reviled Netflix film, Carter. He is literally the best part of everything he has been in.

        From time-to-time I like to see his YT videos of his performance in Ghost The Musical. Perhaps you would like to check it out. 😃

          Unchained Melody, that’s just wild. I am very picky about musicals, they’re generally not my style, but Joo Won! He and BoA dated at one time, I thought they made a cool couple …

          Looking for YSY to star in a good drama again, too!

            I hope we don’t have to wait for too long… He presented his last movie (Birth) in the Busan Festival in October.
            Meanwhile, I’m watching Mirror of the Witch and I still have to watch Grand Prince.

          I loved Joo Won so much when I began watching Kdramas! He was my first Oppa (before KNG came and BB came). I just think he was the best part of many not so good projects. 😅 I was more impressed with his earlier projects (Good Doctor, Bridal Mask, Baker King, Yong Pal) than the later ones (My Sassy Girl 2, Alice). I haven’t seen Stealer, but from what I gathered here it might be worth a watch.

            Ooh! Stealer is a hoot and a half. A “superhero” who’s really a goof. I do hope you watch it.

            Oh I just remembered another one which I loved him in so much! The weekender Ojakgyo Brothers! Not sure if it’s so dated to watch now, but his storyline with UEE deserves a story of its own. Such brilliant acting from both (and then they were just rookies!)

        Dare I mention Level 7 Civil Servant? (Say that 5 times in a row)

    One of his most brilliant projects. Another one I’d recommend is Bridal Mask, though I also personally love him in a political-medical drama Yong Pal.
