I think this was a decent hospital show, I just didn't really like the main characters that much. I found the second lead male doctor to be extremely aggressive and therefore, some of his interactions with other characters were infuriating. The main autistic doctor was sometimes really hard to watch in certain situations because many times, he was treated really unfairly due to his autistic label which made me feel sad. That sadness and my desire to advocate for the male MC was my main reason for dropping this drama. Also, having practiced in the medical field, there were some ethical issues that came up while watching that gave me inner turmoil. Trying to decide what's ethically right versus what's morally right can sometimes be a very challenging task.
In regards to the genre of this drama being a medical drama, I wasn't partial to the overall execution of this drama's hospital feel. For me, Good Doctor had a bit too much medical stuff, not enough personal lives interweaved for me to get entirely absorbed into the characters and plot. That's not to say there was anything wrong with this show, I have just preferred other medical K-dramas such as Doctors and Doctor Stranger when compared to this one.
