What drove me to write this review ?

Simply it was the other reviews giving this 3 or 4 points.Inam flabbergasted by how underrated this show is ..

Story :
This is a medical spy thriller where a North Korean refugee doctor (Lee Jong suk) who has mad medical skills ends up in S Korea looking for his lost girl friend (Jin se yeon) who he lost while escaping.Also In the mix are the snobbish daughter of a hospital director (Kang So Ra) and a gifted doctor (Park Hae Jin)who may have stuff other than medicine on his mind. What happens when these 4 (or 3) characters come face to face?

What i liked :
1. Fast paced ,almost thriller like story and a superb central character make this an engaging watch.Also loved LJS and PHJ face offs in the operation theatres and outside.

2. The central actors perform admirably and keep you invested in the characters they portray.LJS is the giy who does the heavy lifting but the rest support him excellently. Even the supporting cast were superb in my opinion

3. Direction: Jin Hyuk is one of my fave S Korean PD and it seems he cannot make a bad show.The show is almost movie like in its intensity
