A dedicated and kind police officer Geum Myung-se (Cha Tae-hyun) inadvertently causes a famed but cold and indifferent neurologist Shin Ha-ru (Jung Yong-hwa) to lose his job. The neurologist later joins a specialist team set up in Seoul to solve cases involving rare brain ailments of which the detective is a member. The neurologist then plots his revenge against the detective whilst assisting in solving many weird and wonderful cases. There are other entertaining members of the team and some interesting cases that hold your interest so overall an ok watch even though the comedy often falls flat.

The plot was funny. And thrilling at the same time, but I was hoping for a better chemistry between the main leads, despite separately actors made great performances, was very believable, engaging and funny but the romantic couple has had zero chemistry, .
"Dr. Brain" was indeed very gorgeous but the fact that the character must be a person with traces of a psychopath, (and he did the most good looking psychopath the I've ever seen), made his character emotionless and unfortunately sometimes was annoying to watch his plot development. The chief police officer character wasn't engaging at all and I think it shouldn't be there. Is the same situation with couple but in his case the script overshadow a great actor.
Overall it's a interesting serie i recommended, but could be much more famous if this faults was adressed previously.

This drama was a constant coin toss for me, swinging between great and bad throughout, this included the story, characters, jokes, and, in particular, cases. Every case related to one or multiple subjects around neuroscience for the doctor to talk about, however, some subjects were poorly executed and questionable. These ones were totally forced and stretched thin just for the sake of including them. Other cases were actually interesting. The humor as well was a big hit or miss, especially with the male leads. The drama placed too much focus on the male leads while neglecting the remainder of the cast dynamic. On the other hand, the detective wife didn't fit quite well and it took until the last few episodes for her character to finally blend. The drama had its good moments with its witty humor but it lacked in many areas to be a solid drama.
