Judy and Linda get very emotional about episodes 9-12 of "Hospital Ship" (\\ubcd1\\uc6d0\\uc120) starring Ha JiWon and Kang Minhyuk.

Even as we were feeling devastated by the events in this week\'s episodes (but in a good way?), we were also reeling from the drastic in shift in tone from one scene to the next. This week, we examine the medical ethics of treating one\'s family or friends and the concepts of "informed consent" and "patient\'s right to die with dignity", which Eunjae (Ha JiWon) callously ignores. For such a good doctor, Eunjae doesn\'t seem to understand why this makes Hyun (Kang MinHyuk) upset. This was such a great opportunity for Eunjae to realize her own shortcomings and try to improve herself as a medical professional in an interesting way. Instead, the drama simply glosses over the character\'s lack of deep self-reflection by saying, "Well, her mom\'s dead. Did you know her mom\'s dead?" There are better ways to do this and step one is re-reading your bloody script at least once.

Are we wrong to hope that Eunjae and Hyun never get romantically involved? Can\'t we have one Korean drama that doesn\'t try to shove a romance into itself?
