Because the final episode of Dr. Romantic Season 3 has been aired, I am going through a separation anxiety. This is one of many posts that I will be putting up here in the blog - a BTS X Dr. Romantic crossover.
One of the many popular songs of BTS is Silver Spoon. It has a scintillating choreography that leaves many ARMYs melting. However, the overall message and lyrics of the song are not to be taken lightly.
Here are lines of the song that speak to me of the unending struggle for equality, fairness and inclusion.
난 뱁새다리 넌 황새다리
I have crow-tit’s legs, you have stork’s legs
I have crow-tit’s legs, you have stork’s legs
걔넨 말하지 ‘내 다린 백만 불짜리’
They say, “my legs are worth a million dollars”
They say, “my legs are worth a million dollars”
내 게 짧은데 어찌 같은 종목 하니?
How can we compete in the same sport when mine are short?
How can we compete in the same sport when mine are short?
They say ‘똑같은 초원이면 괜찮잖니!’
They say, “it’s fair if the field is the same!”
They say, “it’s fair if the field is the same!”
Never Never Never
The struggle for equal rights and opportunities will never end. However, a knowledge of oneself and staying focused to achieve one's dream are self efficacy tools that can bring about change. It requires grit and patience. Support and collaboration with trusted people are needed too. It may take a while but the journey is worth it. This has been the inspiring story of Bangtan.
ARMYs love them for being their authentic selves. They are like the parrotbills or crowtits in the song who stopped running after and with the storks. They charted their own direction, poised their wings and took flight.
Imagine my kilig when Baepsae's themes and Bangtan's message found its way in episodes 13 and 14 of Dr. Romantic Season 3.
The conflict between Dr. Kang and Dr. Seo has heightened at this point. Both talented and intelligent surgeons, skillfully trained by Master Kim, the difference in leadership style and approach are reasons for the clash. Dr. Kang scolds his junior, Dr. Seo comparing his attitude and philosophy to the parrotbill chasing after the stork.
In episode 14, it was Dr. Bae who reminded Dr. Seo the trick for survival in a highly competitive and pressure laden work environment. It is a cool fable to use in expanding the breadth and deepening the relationship of the three doctors. We see, in this exchanges the dynamics that will define their adventures and evolution should there be a season 4. Dr. Kang may remain as the headstrong but perceptive interim director and Dr. Seo as the emphatic and decisive leader.
As for Dr. Bae, it would be nice to give him a backstory. We know very little of Dr. Bones.
