Good Doctor (Season 1)

Good Doctor (굿 닥터, 2013) is a South Korean medical drama you can watch online on iFILM, starring Joo Won and Moon Chae-won. Park Shi-on is a paediatric surgical resident with autism and savant syndrome — he can recall entire anatomy texts from memory and spots diagnoses that stump senior staff. A one-on-one conversation in the hallway is a different matter entirely.

The twenty-episode series on KBS2 keeps its focus on a single tension: can a hospital trust someone who reads patients better than anyone on the team but cannot navigate the social terrain around them? Joo Won's performance earned him wide recognition in Korean television, and the premise proved strong enough to travel — the show was later adapted in the United States and several other countries.
