The Hippocratic Crush 2 eps 1-4


The wait is finally over.
This drama is the drama that everyone has been waiting for and I finally can get my hand on it.

Its a beautiful storyline with each episodes contain a life lesson.

The story continue with Tavia and Kenneth a married couple working in the hospital with all the original cast returning with a few brand new faces. Tavia's is pregnant. However, her sickness somehow return and she has to choose if she want to use abortion or keep it and risk her life. At first Kenneth convince her to use abortion because he couldn't risk loosing her, he said "we are still young, we can have another child soon, I can't risk loosing you," (somewhere along the lines) and Tavia reply, "Its a gift. We can't be cruel and use abortion. If we use abortion now, what if when I'm older and my sickness is worse, how can I have a chance to be pregnant again?" (somewhere along the lines).

Kenneth eventually agree for Tavia to have the child, as he learn through his patient that when they are sick and could possibly died, the first thing that comes to mind is their wife and the girl has taught him that she always think about her father. He even dream of his dead brother play by Nathan Ngai, where they were in a basket ball court and Nathan said, "I'm going to be an uncle.... the present create the future, don't regret anything," (somewhere along the lines), and Kenneth finally decide to allow her to have the child.

However, in episode 4, Ronald Law is a patient that his girlfriend use abortion to get rid of his child, and he is angry and clueless so he decide to end his life by jumping off the hospital building. Luckily, Mandy, Benjamin, Kenneth and Tavia save him.
Kenneth said to Ronald (somewhere along the lines) "It doesn't matter if she break up with you, it doesn't matter if she use abortion, what matter is your life. You life is far more important than the child. You're still young, you have a future. It doesn't matter about anything but to keep yourself safe. You need to live for your loves one, if you jump down and died how would your love one feel?"
Tavia  overheard what Kenneth said to Ronald and thought about if she should keep the child or not.
And the credit roll.

However in episodes 1 to 4, Lawrence Ng play as a pathologist. This drama show how pathologist can help in an operation  where during the operation a sample of the patient's brain were sent to the Department of Pathology to test the sample. It show how the sample is made from a small  part of the brain to a tissues sample on the plate for the microscope purpose.
Lawrence has a friend that owe a coffee store, and that friend is Koo Ming Kai. Tracy Chu is a mysterious woman who goes to the coffee store only to be drinking tea. She wants to meet this "Monica" woman because she believe that her fiancée is with this woman. She try to compare herself with the woman. She and Lawrence has some scene together already, and I find her acting is alright compare to the newbies doctors.

Candy Chang is studying in Australia. Him always buy her stuff to send it to her. He waits for her even though his friend, Brian Tse, Tse Cheuk Yin (the one that play Andy) and Lam King Ching convince him to move on. Him met social worker, Eliza Sum and the too get along really well.

Derek Kwok finally married Paisley Wu. Together they continue to be a loving couple.

Mandy Wong is a strict doctor, she always yelled at the newbies because they make silly mistakes. Benjamin continue to be a loving boyfriend.

I really think the screen writer did a good job for this drama. The first episodes has a lot of tears, because there were a patient and she died. The life lesson in this episodes is to think of all the happiness and live each day through happiness. In another episodes it is that the present create the future, don't make any regret that the future will regret. I think this series is beautiful as far as I'm watching it, and I'm not writing this because its Kenneth and Tavia's drama together as a couple, but as the first four episodes has show me. I can't wait for the next twenty six episodes.

What do you think of the first four episodes of The Hippocratic Crush 2? Did it meet your standard?
