Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Dr. Romantic keeps its focus squarely on medical drama and character growth, with diversity handled naturally and no obvious box-ticking. Characters’ struggles and advancement are based on merit, not shoehorned identity politics, making for an engaging story unhindered by ideological detours.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

This show largely upholds traditional values, family, mentorship, professional hierarchy, and respect for elders are woven into its fabric. Masculinity, femininity, and culture are depicted conventionally and with respect, rather than subverted or mocked for modern sensibilities.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Diverse viewpoints are represented, with internal conflict and differing philosophies among characters. The drama doesn't reduce dissenting views to caricature or portray tradition as the villain; instead, it offers a genuine, pluralistic environment with real debate and nuance.
