This is a tale of live lines intersecting in unexpected and highly implausible ways. The plot is maintained because the characters are in search for information which is not available either by luck of by design (well-meant or otherwise), denied on purpose, unavailable due to memory loss, acquired through eavesdropping, or falsified. The concurrence of these events is implausible to say the least, while completely acceptable events fail to materialise due to the characters' choice, which is usually highly unreasonable. The goodies and baddies not always get their deserved lot. The lead character, wonderfully played by Kim Jihan, is an excellent surgeon who is in search of his roots. Along this line, the story branches to deal with the lives of many related persons. Timelines are not realistic, and the depiction of many processes is non-factual. But if viewers wants to throw logic and reality out of the window, they can be entertained. Nevertheless, the story line(s) are not well developed, especially as the drama progresses towards the end. This review is cryptic because it is trying to avoid spoilers. The drama deserves a 10 for acting and production, but a 6 for story development.
