Not perfect, but a fun, heartfelt bromantic ride to a satisfying finish

In the first episode, Professor Cha Young Min asks if a patient is dying, would he prefer a doctor with skillful hands or a caring heart?
Prof Cha Young Min and Dr Ko Seung Tak : one has the skill but seemingly no heart, the other has heart and knowledge, but not the skills. Because they are so different (and both jerks in their own way), they hate each other from the moment they meet. Yet Fate has it that only together will they become the better version of themselves.

Prof Cha goes into a coma after an accident and finds that he, as a coma ghost, can possess only one person - his nemesis Dr Ko Seung Tak. So begins a story of redemption for these two doctors, not only in their professional capacity but also in their personal lives, helped along by a sage old ghost called Tes. Along the way our two heroes must learn to work together despite their differences, deal with the bad guys, resolve past personal baggage, all the while trying to save the lives of people around them. As the story progresses, this includes finding a way to save Prof Cha himself, as his life hangs increasingly by a thread.

I must say I enjoyed this more than I expected to! Rain and Kim Beom are absolutely fantastic as Prof Cha and Dr Ko, and have delivered a bromance that rivals (in my opinion, exceeded) that of Goblin + Grim Reaper! (who are now relegated to 2nd place). Yes, the drama has its flaws and plot holes , but peppered throughout are some truly lovely gems - hilarious laugh-out-loud scenes, poignant moments, and relatable side characters who brighten the story, with the endearing trio of coma ghosts being my favourites.

Ghost Story is touted largely as a comedy. However, it is, after all about life, death and the in-between, so there are heart-rending moments as well. Not everyone lives. The pacing is good overall, but does slow down around Eps 10-12, as things take a turn for the worse and frustrations mount. The mood gets a little heavier and, unfortunately, the pacing gets a bit draggy at this point. But bear with it and keep watching to the end! It will be worth it! Because this story has one of the most satisfying wrap-ups I have seen in a while, leaving me with a tear in the eye and a smile on my face long after it ended.
