Kdrama Challange: Two Weeks

14 October 2013
This drama gives me the vibe of how to redeem your 'mistake' by cracking your brain – along with 'sharpening' your gut. 
I love how the writer plots the story – it is well written and so much satisfying. The first episode is the most engaging part/ opening for me. I could sense this series  -  by the first episode - would be entertaining and kick all the good aspects in the most drama I had ever watched.  Still, I am all the romantic-comedy fan out there, as a result I did crave more of the romance and I got nowhere. Sigh. The drama’s story would get an A +++  if the pressure between ‘life and death’ did not go down before the final episode. Is it only me or anyone else has the same thought about it?
On the other hand, it turns out to be better when the story puts the romance aside. I love how the writer still gave us a happy ending – cause It would crush our sympathy towards the main character who deserves to be loved a wholeheartedly IF he deads or maybe has brain damage etc etc.
The characters are excellent. They were not wasted along the development of the story. Soe In Hye takes good role in the opening. Park Jae-Kyung is brilliant. Uri Tae San-ie and Soe Su Jin-ie  is the center of the drama. The baddish people just live there as they supposed to be in every dramaland, so there is no problem with that except they always make me angry ha!. The chief, detectives are all good at their part to appropriately drive the plot.
The setting is just simple. I see there is no such a thing as overbroad shoot for one single scene which sometimes, at different show, I found it unnecessary . The pressure, the action, the fast-thinker detectives, the emotion is just perfect.
The tone of this movie might be ‘(verb) + after the surgery day’ such as ‘ I will tell you the whole story after…’, ‘I am going to die after…’
There are more and more heartbreaking moments from this series discovered by Tae-san’s two weeks life changing journey. I almost forgot that he was handicapped and suffered from the framed before finally he got his ‘happily ever after’. He is the most pity character that I had ever seen. For several times I almost cried along with him, when he was super angry or upset towards his life. It is no surprise when I saw the scene when In-Hye finally finds out that he is clear – not a murder at all – then she comes to really angry to Jae-Gyung. She questions her, why it should be him, and how much he suffers. If I could recall those moments, those are just heartbreaking.
It was a very pleasant ride watching this show. I don't regret anything at all. Go watch it!
Rating-wise: 8.5 out of 10
