The story is relatively unhappy one

This is another 5 episode WOWOW drama. The original is Keigo Higashino's medical suspense. What is a human being? What is love? Where is the heart? It depicts a sad love story centered on miraculous medical science and forbidden technology.

I've read everything from Keigo Higashino's work from "Makyu" to "Masquerade Eve", so I should have read this too, but I forgot about it as usual, so I enjoyed it enough as a suspense drama.

Above all, "Dark Ryunosuke Kamiki" other than Ninomae (Ninomae Juuichi of the drama "SPEC") is fresh. I think the other characters were also exquisite and good casting. The one that seemed to be particularly suitable was Fumi Nikaido, who played the role of Megumi. I also liked Makita Sports, the owner of an art supply shop where Megumi works.

The story is relatively unhappy one. I am not surprised because Higashino Keigo tends to write such stories. Certainly, the plot is really sad. However, I was impressed with the sorrow of the last part.

I want medicine that can save someone to develop steadily, but what if someone is making a life-threatening sacrifice behind the scenes of research? I think ...

In fact, however, not humans but mice are used (as guinea pigs to test something new)... then, some think rats good, but they also have life.
This makes me annoyed. After all, I can’t help thinking severely that this world is made up of “our rules we human beings made”.
This lesson is very deep and serious, I think.
