text excerpt from HANCINEMA review
Jae-joon is also jealous of Soo-hyeon's growing feelings for Hoon,
and Hoon does nothing to discourage her.
The growing jealousy makes
Hoon an even bigger opponent for single-minded Jae-joon. It makes him
act carelessly towards Soo-hyeon, which hurts her and drives her away. "Doctor Stranger"
handles its romantic aspects well.
Jae-joon and Soo-hyeon are a sad,
but tried-and-true, story. She yearns for genuine caring and finds that
in Hoon's friendship rather than Jae-joon's love. Jae-joon loves her,
but his end goal forbids it. What is scary about Jae-joon's feelings is
that he ignores them.
He is following the path of Director Oh, the man
who ignored what was right for his own welfare.
Revenge is a selfish act
and I would like to see Jae-joon eventually realize that.
