Synopsis
Eijiro Saito (Satoshi Tsumabuki) is a graduate of the prestigious Eidai Medical School and is sent to Eidai Hospital as a trainee doctor. There, under the supervision of Dr. Shiratori (Tomokazu Miura) at the surgery department, Eijiro trains hard with Dekune (Koji Kato) and Munekata (Masatoshi Matsuo). But all they seem to do is take care of the menial work. They work on average 16 hours a day for \38,000 per month. It's so bad that they have to do part-time work at other hospitals just to make ends meet.

Eijiro picks Seido Hospital, run by Dr. Hattori (Ken Ogata), for his part-time job. The surgery is like a battleground. Eijiro is very impressed by his senior Dr. Ushida (Tetta Sugimoto) and the nurse Kaori (Kyoka Suzuki). But one night, when he is on duty, Eijiro runs from the surgery leaving a badly injured patient behind!

1. New Japanese Doctors - are they really ready? [Rating: 6/10]
This drama is about a new doctor fresh from med school and we see the good, bad, and ugly of the Japanese hospital system. Of course a lot of things rotate around money. The main character has to work part-time at night to make some cash but he just loses it. From there he has to figure out what it is to be a doctor. The shows pretty slow and the stories are pretty boring but if you like the actor and actress it is somewhat viewable.

2. That's why it's a melodrama. [Rating: 7/10]
First couple of episodes were slow, but OK. However, the story about this medical resident gets old quickly. The theme of him being a heroic figure who fights for patients is repetitive and too fictional for me to relate. His personality would have made a horrible doctor in the real world... Residency is about learning quickly, but he still does not get it in the last disc. I will recommend it to those who wants get an intro look to japan's hospital or watch an idealistic (sometimes disillusioned) young doctor matures... Don't know what the ending is like.

4. WONDERFUL SERIES [Rating: 10/10]
I was kind of turned off by the darkness of the first episode, I almost didn't watch the rest. Now though, this is one of my favorites. The portrayal of life as a new doctor is so painfully honest, Saito Sensei was so earnest too. Tsumambuki Satoshi did an awesome job here. He's definitely one of my favorite actors ever.

5. Should You Trust Doctors? [Rating: 7/10]
The beginning was very good but story did not pick up later on. I like how the story depicts the dark side of medical healthcare and leaves viewers feeling paranoid about trusting doctors. Issues are very real and thought-provoking. Idealism vs practicality.

Honestly the first couple eps are a bit slow but the story developed very well over time. It is very touching.

If it wasn't for Tsumabuki, i wouldn't have watched it. At times i wanted to kick him in the ass for being such a wuss and a busy body but then his cuteness makes up for it all...ehehhe....Kinda predictable....but it's worth watching if you're a Tsumabuki fan....

very impressive acting from tsumabuki. i'm impressed.
not your typical hospital doctor show, but it feels much more real compared. more personal and not as shallow.

A drama that had a promising premise - a young, idealistic doctor who is ready to take on the challenges of working in a hospital, but finds that things just aren't as simple as helping people. Tsumabuki Satoshi, newcomer to the JDorama scene, plays a recent Med School graduate who begins his residency at a prestigious hospital.

Each episode focuses on a different patient or different situations that the young doctor has to face, sometimes the conclusions aren't all that happy. In fact, this drama overall is pretty dark. It shows the darker side of being a doctor and the entire hospital insurance system (or faults thereof). Tsumabuki pulls off a decent job, but I didn't find his character very endearing or memorable. It's certainly not one of his best works.

The story is also pretty slow, the episodes becoming monotonous after the first three or four. I wouldn't recommend going out of your way to watch this series even if you're an avid fan of Tsumabuki Satoshi.

Great drama! Not your usual "happy-go-lucky" drama, but I love the story.

Satoshi is so goodlooking here. But I cant stand his role when he portrays an inconfident doctor.
31. Comments by icebaby028 [Rating: 4/10]
Oh God. I think Tsumabuki Satoshi has to fire his agent for getting him these awful scripts. He always gets casted as the good boy who can do no wrong and it's just so tiring to watch him try to fight human temptation and evilness all the time. It's a pity since he's such a great actor but he definiately needs better roles. The drama itself is boring, the script is blah, the story is eh...it's just not worth watching. As a matter of fact, I didn't even finish watching it. It was hard just to get through the first four episodes.

Loved it at first, but once the 3rd story, which is the major part of this drama starts, it gets boring. Maybe it's because I was feeling the opposite of what I was suppose to... The guy tries too much and he's a damn crybaby. Running into your room crying and slamming the door, you can't do that at 25...
41. Comments by aoi_dolphine [Rating: 8/10]
Very idealistic doctor Eijiro who sees the system of the hospital going against his principles. However, when things were thrown in his path for him to react on, he fails miserably. Isn't this what Life is all about?

43. Comments by compaqmac321 [Rating: 6/10]
tch..eijiro is the WORST character ever...i hated him...i hated everything about him...he was terrible...the only thing i can say is tsumabuki satoshi did a good job playing him, in the process i hated seeing his face, but thats when i just take a deep breath and remember that its JUST tv...there were a lot of great actors in this though...tsumabuki, kuninaka ryoko, suzuki kyoka, ogata ken, and even ayase haruka. there stories were interesting, but the annoying main character made me not want to watch chunks of episodes..overall...it wasnt bad...it was funny in parts...i guess you could say it was touching sometimes, but the main character is the worst ive seen so far in any drama so, ill drop the score for that

Everyone said this is slow or boring. But it starts to seriously grab me ever since the 1st episode, very good stuff!
2. tight
Great!! It's well deserved as the winner of the best drama award for that season. It's deep, dark, and still realistic. Those who have had enough life experience would definitely appreciate this.
3. effronterie
ONE OF MY ALL-TIME FAVORITES. Underrated, but this drama is a poignant and honest portrayal. As always, Tsumambuki Satoshi rocks!
