Slice of Life, Doctors, Bromace kind of drama.
I say "Slice if Life" because of the pacing of the drama. First off, I didn't know who Rain was until I watched The Hungry and The Hairy, it is a reality show and I fell in love with his approachable personality. He's also very good as the best guy friend so this role was made for him.
I can see why everyone likes Kim Bum, he has an adorable face and his acting is top notch. I actually thought he out-shined Rain on his performance in this drama.
The summary and pictures are right, this is a bromance drama with little romance. I knew that coming in. I'm a rom-com addict, so I had to shift gears watching this drama. I will admit, it started out strong for me.
The costumes were on point. I SUPER loved Sung Dong wardrobe. For a guy who is in his mid fifties, he was the best dressed. I really enjoyed all the pant suits and oversized sweaters.
The casting was good and it was nice to seen new faces I am not use to. I felt like for me, I didn't like the pacing of the show too much. I liked the beginning and ending, but towards the middle it dragged a little.
I wanted to see more side stories and I felt like a lot of the scenes were contrived to fit the narrative the script writer was trying to convey. Sometimes it's dangerous to do this one thing, unless they wanted to do that thing for comical purposes, then it's okay.
Or you have a super intense scene and then the tension is cut with a comical scene, but it just seemed a little awkward and cringy in my opinion.
A lot of people loved this drama and it does have heart and warm feelings. I guess I just wanted better pacing and more organized and less contrived situations.
