While Young Min is arrogant and cold-blooded, who only cares about his career, and doesn't care about any of his patient's personal stories, Seong Tak is the luckiest and richest resident doctor whose grandfather is the founder of Myung-shin hospital and mother is the chairman of the hospital. Never wanting to be a good doctor, he becomes possessed by a ghost doctor. (Source: AsianWiki, CJ ENM)

The story is getting more interesting. I feel the internal struggle of Seung Tak and admire his character because even if he seems like a brat, his heart is pure. He wants to be able to help people and use Young Min's talent but he wont allow it as it also means he's taking Young Min's life somehow.

thanks to your posts op i started watching this drama and i can't believe that i'm loving it so much. it's little moments that make this drama shine, i never expected such a whacky premise to be equally heartfelt.

i wonder if i understood the ending of last episode right and saving people/performing surgeries may be the way to save young min instead of bringing him closer to death. that would be very sweet because i really enjoy the way the drama managed to explore his character. he seemed so cold and almost ruthless at first but he truly cares about patients (even if he needed some help correcting his ways. growth!).

Glad you're enjoying this too! Kim Bum and Rain's got great chemistry its nice to watch them work together.

And yeahhh I think the monitor is for Young Min's brainwaves or brain activity. So it looks like he's coming back to life!

Also...is Tes connected to Soo Joon? And is grandpa friends with Tes? Tes helped grandpa too like the way Young Min and Seung Tak worked?
