Excellent medical historical K-drama series. “Hur Jun, The Original Story (Gu-am Heo Joon)” is an excellent medical historical K-drama series. The young Heo Joon character is a perfect casting, however, the young adult Heo Joon character (Mr. Kim Joo Hyuk) looks so mature. The character does not convey the angst and anger of young rebellious son but more like revealing an enduring humiliation pain by a mature old-ish looking Heo Joon. However, the adult Heo Jeon character (Mr. Kim Joo Hyuk) is perfectly casted. I miss the young street smart character Im Mi Hyun (Miss Kim So Yeon), too bad the character is "killed" in the early episodes. Compelling performance by Mr. Song Jae Hee as Dashing Constable Lee Jung Myung in “Gu-am Heo Joon”. Righteous Constable Lee Jung Myung steals the show with his intense anguish in “Hur Jun, The Original Story (Gu-am Heo Joon)”, episode 72. His love for Nurse Ye-Jin is so deep and heroic. What a stunning performance, very painful to watch the unforgettable episode 72. I wish MBC and other big broadcasting companies will produce more of this kind of Medical or Historical K-drama series. “Hur Jun, The Original Story (Gu-am Heo Joon)” is so overwhelming inspiring. Thank you for producing this medical historical K-drama series.

Love Triangle I just finished watching all 122 episodes and have been re-watching the series for more than half a dozen times from beginning to end. I really enjoyed the series because it tells us about how to live our lives to the fullest, and the meaning of families in our lives. The wisdom and advice from Mr. Geum Jung-do to his adopted son (Dr. Han Seok-Hoon) and his three daughters (Geum Doo-na, Geum Seol-hwa, and Geum Se-na) are so meaningful and heartwarming. The phrases that Grandma Yoon uses also remind me of our elders when they describe the most basic rule of good manners. There is Love Triangle or rather three sided love triangle in "Golden Pouch". This K-drama series is so engaging and so memorable. Firstly, there is Dr. Han Seok-hoon's past relationship with Bae Min-hee, and secondly, both Dr. Han Seok-hoon and Yoon Joon-sang fall in love with Geum Seol-hwa. All lead characters have their own motivation, hopes, values and fears. For the audience, it seems that both Dr. Han Seok-hoon and Yoon Joon-sang are "perfect person" for Geum Seol-hwa. Seol-hwa has feeling for Dr. Han, but Seol-hwa's adopted mom, Kim Choo-ja, wants Seol-hwa to marry a perfect and flawless man, the son of the wealthy Yoon family. I find this unique love triangle story does not drag on too long, but is engaging. Will Seol-hwa choose the man that needs her (Dr. Han Seok-hoon) or the man that wants her (Yoon Joon-sang)? Dr. Han Seok-hoon and Miss Geum Seol-hwa have excellent on-screen chemistry, one of the best I have ever seen, it is unrivalled by any other K-drama series. We really think they have been in love for centuries in “Golden Pouch”. I truly believe I am watching a true story rather than fictional K-drama series. Seol-hwa is so lovely. Dr. Han is so kind and never gives up on his patients, including his love of his life "patient", Seol-Hwa. He is really dedicated on his work in the surgical theater. Dr. Han and Geum Seol-hwa's love is so pure and genuine. However, I find the ending of the “Golden Pouch” series is inconclusive and unsatisfactory. There is no wedding for Dr. Han and Ms. Geum Seol-hwa nor do the Yoon and Geum families eat dumplings at the Dumplings Shop to conclude the drama series. I truly hope for a happy ending for both Yoon and Geum families, and for Dr. Han and Ms. Geum, a match made in heaven.
