LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Netflix has been quite generous with its content lately and we are loving it. K-dramas are on an all-time high and with the all-new medical drama 'Doctor Cha' the mixture of comedy and drama is pre-eminent. The show is already in its seventh episode and the plot is getting quite intriguing. While we were already rooting for Jung-sook, now the list is getting longer with Roy Kim's name on it. The story is developing itself into a thrill ride and we're here for it. This week's episode saw Jung-sook and the many hurdles she has been given. Jung-sook's character development in the show has been exceptional and her storyline has some added bonus every week. 

The cast of the Netflix comedy-drama consists of Min Woo-hyuk, Kim Byung-chul, and Myung Se-bin in the lead. Netflix releases new episodes every Saturday and Sunday.

What did Roy Kim say to Jung-sook?

In the previous episode, we saw Roy Kim hurrying to tell Jung-sook an important thing. Episode 7 continues with the scene and as Roy Kim saves Jung-sook from falling, he looks into her eyes and coveys her that he wants to tell her something important, and if he can't say it now, he won't be able to convey it ever. The intense chemistry between them is palpable and is broken when Jung-sook's mother-in-law intervenes. She asks Roy Kim what he is doing to her daughter-in-law and why he is holding her in an inappropriate manner. After this, Roy Kim apologizes profusely and leaves the scene.

In-ho finds a well-kept secret

When the scene changes, we see Jung-sook arriving home and finding In-ho waiting for her in the living room. Upon inspection, it is realized that things are wrong. I-rang is seen sitting on the floor numb. In-ho asks Jung-sook if she knew about I-rang secretly going to art school. In-ho answers his own question by saying that he now knows about Jung-sook supporting I-rang with her art school applications. Later, In-ho declares that he won't be supporting I-rang if she is planning to go to art school and that "dreams aren't supposed to come true" and that her dream should be to become a doctor just like him.

Jung-sook wants the best for I-rang and realizes her love for art like no other. So, to support her daughter, she takes out a loan to pay her fees. Episode 7 wraps itself with no revelation of In-ho and Seung-hee's illicit affair and just focuses on an impending topic that first took flight in Episode 2.
