This series made it unexpectedly to my 2nd fav (moving Itaewon class one rank lower ☺️). If you’re looking for something to watch for, PLEASE PLEASE consider watching this.
Why? Here’s my unsolicited reasons:
1. It’s a break from the typical medical surgery-surgeon plots.
2. It’s fresh to see Anesthesiologists taking lead (it’s my 12th medical series already) 😁
3. The story shows us on how a doctor SHOULD properly find the patient’s correct diagnosis — going beyond the results and symptoms, especially if the pain is recurring.
4. It touches a taboo subject — euthanasia. Does prolonging pain enough to let go of a patient or our loved ones? 😢
5. It also tackles a very rare illness — C.I.P.A, the inability to feel any pain and temperature. Can you imagine living your life without any physical pain? 😦
6. The OST, “Look At” by Saltnpaper in particular. I cried a river everytime it is played especially on that child hugging her sick mom scene. 🥺
7. It’s a story of death and pain. Letting go despite the pain and choosing love knowing there is pain. ♥️
Bonus: Because it’s Ji Sung oppa. He is a versatile actor as always.
