It’s an American remake of a K Drama featuring a medium to high needs savant person with ASD becoming a surgeon. The scene depicted above is a narrative mechanism the show uses as a way for the audience to see his thought process in a visually interesting way.
The show has plenty to dunk on but there’s nothing wrong with not having an actor stare into space for 20 seconds of dead air while the character thinks of a creative solution.
Edit: I should note a similar mechanism was used all the time in other medical shows like House
