Dr. Kang Mo Yeon's Medical Dilemma With President Mubarat

Once again, thanks to Drama Beans for these wonderful screenshots...

As I was watching Descendants of the Sun -- one particular scene caught me and that's the scene where there's a crisis. President Mubarat of Saudi Arabia may just be operated alone by an Arabian doctor or a VIP doctor. Dr. Kang Mo Yeon herself finds out that if she doesn't intervene -- the president will die and this results to an intense scene.

One of the biggest trials is what to do. President Mubarat's bodyguard says that only a VIP doctor can do the operation. However, President Mubarat has intestinal distension. Mo Yeon discovers that if she doesn't do anything at all then he will die. The doctor would be there in an hour but if they don't do anything in twenty minutes -- something worse could happen. This results in a pointed gun incident and Mo Yeon does whatever she can to save President Mubarat's life. The doctor arrives and they have a heated discussion.

This is a moral dilemma. There's a dying man there and she's the only one (at that moment) who can operate on him. She takes the risk that she could be killed in this conflict. There's guns pointed at her. She performs the operation in order to help stabilize President Mubarak. She does what she can and it's not very pleasing. She gets some stress after all the fear. 

But it was worth it in the end. She won the favor of President Mubarat.

"Light The Night's" Finale (Spoilers Ahead)

  SpikyTV I guess the series just kept us guessing, right? I finally got the chance to finish it after some busy nights. I was right that the killer was HANA (Esther Liu) BUT there's a twist - it was more of voluntary manslaughter than murder. Manslaughter is when one kills out of the heat of passion and that's what Hana did twice in the story. Hana had one against a client who used her and another against Sue after some unfortunate insanity attack. Hana ends up planning to hand herself over but her lover commits murder (towards a character named Chiang An) to protect her.  The whole psychological thriller for me just didn't match up to what I wanted. I guess I was too used to how Victim's Game rolled out. I was expecting some real murder scheme. Instead, it was the anti-climatic manslaughter where Hana decides to hand herself to the authorities after what she did. I really still think that the finale wasn't worth too much of the wait. I was expecting something gran

I Just Finished "My Golden Life"

I finally finished My Golden Life which I was hesitant to watch. 52 one-hour long episodes? I was thinking it was easier to watch the Wuxia series that had 40+ minutes per episode such as Princess Weiyang which was quite long. A lot of episodes of My Golden Life would have a few minutes more depending on the coverage of the episode. So, I'm done and I never thought I'd actually finish it since I'm way too used to short K-Dramas. This one was rather long but it was rather entertaining in many ways. I was thinking about how Shin Hye Sun actually did well with on-screen partner Park Si Hoo. Sometimes, I'd like to joke about how they had a chemistry that looked good and felt good. Looked good? Both aren't attractive and I often joke how Hye Sun's face feels melted or how she was rightfully matched with Lee Jong Suk in Hymn of Death . Hye Sun isn't pretty but she really makes up with her good acting and likability. The same goes for Si Hoo with how he acts out hi

Just Finished "My Glamorous Imperial Concubine" (Some Spoilers)

  This is another Wuxia series finished. I was having some expectations broken. The show can be full of spoilers when discussed even further. In fact, some characters are walking spoilers. If you're not ready to be spoiled - DON'T READ. If not, you can read further. I feel the show had some plot twists and turns. Besides, maybe some of the villains in this show weren't as evil as you think.  Emperor Liancheng is an antagonist but dies before the show can end. Liancheng may have some idiotic obsession with Ma Fuya. It becomes even worse when Liancheng's younger sister Liansi and his younger brother Lianxi get involved. Liansi develops a crush on Meng Qiyou and even gets pregnant in the process. It seems that Ma Fuya was pregnant with Liancheng's baby but ends up in Qiyou's household after Liancheng dies. Liancheng dies doing a selfless act to save Ma Fuya. The obsessive empress Ma Xiangyun commits suicide to kill Emperor Liancheng. Emperor Liancheng's quite a
