Doctor Romantic Season 3: Plot Premise
Doctor Romantic’s third season brings a new challenge for the Doldham Hospital staff members as they try to open a trauma center, balancing legal and moral practice at the expense of patients’ lives. The old building of Doldham Hospital opens up a new trauma facility center with all kinds of updated medical equipment. However, even before the center could be officially opened to the public, the team was required to attend to an emergency case with a North Korean ship ending up in South Korean waters. This challenging crisis needs the team to attend to the patients on the ship in critical conditions needing immediate medical help.
It is not easy to commit to the patients when politics get involved with the South Korean Government planning to return the North Korean patients back to their own country to suit their own purpose.
There is also interesting development to look forward to with Dr. Kim’s old, professional rival Cha Jin-Man being welcomed as the in-charge of the new Trauma center.
Doctor Romantic: What Occurs in Episode 6 of Season 3?
Empathy and Sympathy
The stubborn teacher-student pair, Dr. Kim and Woo Jin, clashed as Woo Jin is adamant about not committing to the trauma center with Cha Jin Man heading the team. Not even Cha Eun Jae is able to talk sense into him as she urges him to give her father a chance. Dr. Kim scolds his pupil for being narrow-minded when there are patients on the stretcher, fighting for their lives. It is the simple understanding in any workplace that it is not possible to like all coworkers, but you have got to work with them.
Woo Jin being out of the team, despite everyone’s best efforts, calls for a new member to enter. This makes way for the forcible entry of Dr Yang. The poor chap is so out of his depth after being dragged into the spotlight that it is difficult not to feel bad, yet highly entertained at his misery.
Dr. Yang’s incompetency brings Woo Jin back into action as the expert picks up the scalpel to perform his duty. This sparks ideas in the minds of Dr. Kim and Dr. Park.
After a successful operation, a mishap occurs with a victim of a car crash, a young teenage boy flatlines. The hospital has to face the fury of a grieving mother who happens to be the politician funding the newly built trauma center. Dr. Cha Jin Man arises as the savior as he wins the battle of threats with the Assemblywoman.
Meanwhile, Woo Jin has a heart-to-heart talk with his future father-in-law, Cha Jin Man.
