It ended cleanly and pretty obviously, but I love it
Two men working together. First they don't get along, and as the story goes they find out more about each other, end up relying on each other and work together. Yup, definitely one of my favorite tropes. Finding out that this drama would be in this trope intrigued me, and seeing Rain and Kim Bum intrigued me even more. I have never seen any of Rain's acting projects, so I was curious, and it turns out I really like his acting (lmao as if I know anything about acting,,,,, (i dont)). While for Kim Bum, I saw him in Tale of The Nine Tailed first (which I haven't finished, but I like his character a lot,,,, well after a few months of putting the drama on hold I actually watched quite a lot of clips of just him in that drama and I liked him a lot) and I also watched Law School which I think he also did really well in. Though I liked him there and that drama, he didn't quite stand out to me as much as he did in this drama, making me see him in a new light.
This drama put me in quite a few emotional roller coaster. Every time Youngmin almost disappeared, I got scared, suddenly forgetting that he's the main character (but i mean,,, I guess because there are always main characters that actually really d word that made me pretty terrified). And Seungtak who is a bright character, every time he panics gets scared, or sad, it really made me feel down too. Though I'm not a doctor and I don't plan to be, I can't see ghosts and I really don't want to, and I'm not the grandchild of a rich guy that owns a hospital, I could relate to him a lot. He's young, and though he always comes off as confident and happy, it was all to mask all his greatest fears, and it even turns out he has the softest heart. He just seems like his heart is as innocent as a child, just stuck like that as he grows bigger and taller. And I know that he would, but when he finally, actually faced his fears and improved to become a doctor who can treat his patients well, I felt really proud as if he was my own son when I'm acctually younger than his character.
And well, after they talked about how everyone wouldn't remember their time as a coma ghost when they wake up, I did have a little fear that Youngmin would be the same, waking up not remembering anything. But, going for the ending where Youngmin is different, and he remembers every single moment as a coma ghost when he wakes up is the obvious happy ending, and I'm glad they went with that route (after scaring me and actually making me cry because they made it seem like he didn't remember at first) It put a nice, warm, happy ending after all they went through to work together, invading each others privacies and understand each other, making them fond for each other and have a special bond. It's really nice to see.
For the visual effects I think they did very well too. Sometimes for fantasy genre I get a bit nervous to see the vfx because it can either be so gorgeous, or trash. And I think they did very well and very fitting for the drama. The OST didn't stand out to me as much, except for CNU's Fly Away. It's a very nice and beautiful uplifting song which I think also fits the drama very well. And also, I knew Kim Jaeyong from HALO and watched him in Love With Flaws, and I was a bit surprised seeing him here, but he did really well, and I think the role fits him very well, I always liked his rather cool appearance which really shows here. And also, I didn't know that the actor who played Hoongil is an idol member. I felt like I saw him in another acting project but it turns out this is his debut project. Maybe I just saw someone similar to him, who knows? But for his acting debut, I think his role really suits him, and he did well portraying Hoongil. Is this what they mean when people say "___ has actor vibes"? Cause I really think that saying fits him well. And though he will of course promote with his group, I hope he can also maintain his career as an actor well, and improve so that he can be yet another amazing idol-actor.
