K-Drama Review: Live Up to Your Name (2017 TV Series)

Medical K-dramas have become very popular. This time travel series combines a historical period with a medical theme and the result is marvelous!

Hello to all my K-Drama fans out there!

I watched “Live Up to Your Name” (2017) on Netflix; but it is NOT a Netflix Original. So you might be able to find it at other streaming sites.

Korean medical dramas seems to be gaining popularity. Time-travel dramas have already become popular. Romantic comedy has always been popular. Historical period dramas are my guilty pleasure. This TV series is a romantic comedy time-travel medical historical period drama. It’s clear that the purpose is to show both Eastern and Western medical practices are good, but combining techniques used in Eastern and Western medicine could be even better. Well! That’s my takeaway. Although … I’m still scared of needles. LOL. So if someone were to perform acupuncture on me, I would have to be totally passed out or in such a state where my body was paralyzed and I couldn’t move. There’s no way I would see a needle coming towards me and stay still. To this day, when I have to get shots, I always close my eyes.
