Medical Korean dramas are my all-time favorite and haven’t missed any of these. This drama is about two doctors being in one body. Cha Young Min (Rain) is a skilled but arrogant doctor. His spirit possessed another doctor’s body Seong Tak (Kim Bum). They both are opposite of each other, one is arrogant and the other is not, one is rude and the other one is jolly, one thing about him only instead of having skills but other one things about a patient even though he does not have any practical skills.
Main Characters:
Rain as Cha Young Min
He is a genius heart surgeon who did his first surgery when he was just an intern. He is arrogant, rude, and thinks only about himself.
Kim Bum as Ko Seung Tak
He is in the first year of heart surgery residency. He is a genius when it comes to theoretical knowledge but when it comes to practical work he is a loser. Plus he comes from a rich family and his family owns the hospital he is working at.
Uee as Jang Se Jin
She is working as a neuro-surgeon out of South Korea and she is Cha Young-min’s ex-girlfriend who recently came back to Korea to get treated her father who adopted her when she was young.
Son Na Eun as Oh Soo Jung
She is an emergency room intern who always seems motivated.

A comma ghost is a spirit of a person who is not dead but in a comma. There were a few rules first one is that coma ghosts cannot go far on their own from where the body is kept. The second one says they cannot possess the human body. But in his case, he can possess the human body only of Ko Seung Tak. Once he left the hospital bypassing his body and he got bumped into someone and come out of his body he almost died that day if Ko Seung Tak doesn’t approach him to save someone.

Overall Thoughts on Ghost Doctor Korean Drama
I am loving this drama new twist is about to come. Highly impressed by Kim bum’s acting skills. Rain has also appeared on the small screen after two years and doing a fabulous job. You laugh and cry with them the chemistry between Cha Young-Min and Ko Seung Tak is damn good. You will also see a cute romance between main leads.
