A well-deserved 10/10 plot in my books, 40 episodes may seem long but i ended up wishing for it to be longer. TT__TT

Like many others, i initially picked this up because i thought it was a remake of DOTS due to the leads' occupations. BUT it's totally different, a pleasantly good different!

The 2 leads have such challenging occupations and so little time together, but they make the relationship work so well. This drama presents a realistic r/s, no sudden breakups or communication breakdown which is *chef's kiss*.

Ironically, these 2 busy people are able to communicate so much more successfully than couples with less demanding jobs (in many other dramas) - probably because they know they need to treasure all the alone time they have which each other so they understand the importance of communicating their love, thoughts and worries.

Both leads are independent and mature people, love seeing their passion in their work and love for each other. It's both FL and ML's first time in a relationship but maaan are they good people. They trust each other so much (i mean they've been through near death together) and are able to think from each other's perspective before making decisions.

1 example which shows this: Mi Ka got the opportunity to go for an overseas attachment for 2 years and when she received the notification of acceptance she was extremely troubled. "i didn't expect myself to get in when i was applying, so i didn't bother to tell Ke Lei. But now that i think about it, it feels like I'm wasn't respecting him" (ep 37, this whole episode was so wonderful).

Having watched so many dramatic reactions to similar situations in other dramas, this normal conversation was so so refreshing. Similar to many other relationship challenges that sprung up in this drama, they get resolved within the episode, or in the next one at the most.

"Is pride that important? more important than loving each other?" PLEASE i love this line that Mi Ka said so so much. I, a single dog, am learning so much about making a r/s work through this show!!

Majority of the scenes when the leads are together may seem choppy because of the obvious cuts in footage but it's because so many of their scenes and dialogues were improvisations which shows how natural their chemistry is!

I started because of the interesting occupation combination but stayed for the superb acting, script and production! I'm in neither industry and am not sure how accurate the portrayal is but my appreciation for front-liners in the SWAT and medical field sky-rocketed after having a glimpse at how much is demanded of them.

Please please give this drama a shot, side characters/conflicts may frustrate you at times but the plot pulls through all the way till the end. I've re-watched the first half of the drama twice already while waiting for new episodes to drop weekly lol!
