..with Park Shin-hye, actually a similar role she played in, "Doctors", which she starred in 2016, 8 years earlier, a highly recommended series, But, Lee Seung-joon, who has a supporting role in this series, had a bigger supporting with Park Shin-hye in, "Memories of Alhambra", a different role for her, but another highly recommended series. The story tried to tell some life truths with on a very Asian basis, work hard but try to experience some of life's good as well. A very K-Drama short coming is the strong alcohol theme, where it seems to be ok to continually show characters being drunk to let off steam, but never show a actor actually smoking a cigarette, like it's ok to get serosis of the liver, but not lung cancer. Another reason, I gave this series a 7 rating, is the over acting for the comedic scenes, all very, "Asian", makes it challenging for the series from being accepted internationally. But another series that if you have acquired a taste for K-Dramas, then you should add this on to your watch list.

...I'm writing a review, after just watching 5 episodes and intend finishing all 8 episodes. But I have to state that the acting is so over the top and cartoonish, that the intro with the characters all animated, could quite easily have carried on, without the live actors. What keeps you watching is the very authentic looking surgery scenes to a non medical person like myself, with no blurring out/censored scenes at all, but the story deserves better acting and I'm also not a big fan of dubbed vocals, much rather hear the actors real voices and read the sub titles. Hence only giving this a 7, but you could do worse, if you can put up with the actors, acting like cartoon characters.

..disappointed I was with this series, admittedly I only managed to watch 6 episodes, before giving up. The story really had scope to be very interesting, but there seemed to be too many, "holes", in how the story teller was trying to describe, life after death. I had seen Kim Hye-ja in, "Our Blues", and I was very impressed with her in that series. Also Lee Jeong-eun and Chun Ho-jin have 4th and 5th billing in this series, having been in so many K-Dramas, that there would be too many to list here. So the actors cast in this series, did promise much, but to no avail, it failed to impress, you could do a lot better that waste your viewing time on this K-Drama.
