LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Netflix has been curating quality content and has been transporting great international content from overseas. The newest addition is 'Doctor Cha' and its exceptional plot that has kept the audience hooked. The show is already on its eighth episode, and the story is spiraling out of control, but in the best way possible. The story started out from a perspective of a housewife Jung-sook, who has been taking care of her family all her life, but one sudden surge of confidence and bad circumstances change her path and bring her face-to-face with her lifelong dream of becoming a doctor. 

The cast and characters are exceptional, with a plot that's delectable in many ways and keeps getting better and better. The cast of 'Doctor Cha' consists of Uhm Jung-Hwa, Kim Byung-Chul, Myung Se-Bin, Min Wook-Hyuk, and Park Jun-Keum in the lead. All-new episodes of 'Doctor Cha' are available every Saturday and Sunday exclusively on Netflix.

Everything comes tumbling down for In-ho

Previous episodes have been a total nail-biter as we waited for In-ho's secret to be out. There is a deep trauma-inducing story of In-ho and his extramarital affair, which has been quietly scraped off episode after episode, and the audience was getting a little impatient about the script being too slow. But, episode 8 brought with itself a gift of great cinema and brought the cat out of the bag.

Seung-Hi's daughter Eun-Seo talks to In-ho and tells him that she has been intentionally talking to his daughter I-rang in hopes of getting all the secrets out. And at that moment, I-rang shows up and sees her father with Eun-seo, everything comes out in the most devastating way possible.

Upon discovery, I-rang realizes her best friend is actually her half-sister and In-ho is a cheater and liar. She runs out of the house and can barely contain her anger. When In-ho runs after her, I-rang warns him and tells him not to say anything to Jung-sook, otherwise, she doesn’t know what she’ll do. 

Who will In-ho choose?

In the end, it's all about choices, while In-ho's secrets were about to be revealed sooner or later, it all boils down to his future and who he chooses to be with. Will he choose his wife, who has been praising him and taking care of him all these years? or the high school sweetheart who he has a daughter with? Only episode 9 will be able to reveal it all. 

'Doctor Cha' releases on Netflix every Saturday and Sunday.
