Despite its promising connection to Hospital Playlist, Bollywood Society notes that Resident Playbook is struggling to meet fan expectations.
Critics and audiences alike feel the series lacks the emotional depth and grounded performances of its predecessor.
Go Yoon Jung’s performance has been described as distant, and the storyline is yet to find solid footing. Cameos and nostalgia are helping keep the momentum alive, but unless the narrative tightens soon, the show may not reach the heights of the original.
