[+244] Well... if people are going to complain about everything, what's the point of medical dramas, then? If any time a disease is mentioned in an episode and the people with that disease rise up in complaints, how can dramas be produced...? ㅠ

[+175] I looked it up and there's no evidence that Chron's is contagious. I assumed that it was because of the drama so I can see why patients of Chron's and their families are angered over the scene. I think the drama needs to go back and edit that out. 

[+136] It was wrong for the drama to depict Chron's as something that is contagious... as for the rest of it, like the s*icide attempt and all, it's a drama so whatever

[+66] Unnecessary build up just for a hugging scene...

[+23] This is a good drama but good in the way that its ridiculousness is what makes it good. I don't really get why it's #1 on Netflix. Meanwhile, 'The Good Bad Mother' is sincerely praise-worthy.. with constant twists, screenwriting that makes you cry and laugh, think... I don't get why it's only #4

[+22] I think people are taking this drama too seriously

[+15] People need to learn to differentiate between dramas and reality

[+13] Just because it's a drama doesn't mean it gets a pass on spreading false information... If something has been found to be false, they should go back and change it. Otherwise, the risk is that viewers come away with a false impression of something like this disease, which is a bigger issue once it gets out of hand...

[+7] I did think they were going too far while watching it

[+2] Okay, but technically, the line "So it's contagious!" wasn't said by a doctor in the scene. It was said by a misinformed family member of a patient? So I don't get why people are causing a controversy out of this?
