The Story
A brilliant neuro-scientist has spent years researching the human brain and how to transfer memories between two brains using electric stimuli. Impatient for progress, he decides to experiment on himself, using a dead person as the second participant. But the process reveals unexpected results when the dead person’s memories involve his own family and uncover a surprising piece of information. Now the doctor is motivated not only by the scientific breakthroughs he has strived for, but also to solve a family mystery that could have a profound impact on his life.
Should I Watch
I am one of the lucky ones who gets Apple + with my phone service, so I decided to pop on over and give “Dr. Brain” a try. “Dr. Brain” is a serious psychological sci-fi drama. As a die-hard Lee Sun Kyun fan, I can honestly say the acting in this drama is stellar and visually it is amazing well produced. But, even for sci-fi, this plot is out there, despite lengthy explanations that will try to convince the audience that it makes perfect sense. Because the series is only 6 episodes long, there is not much filler or fluff, which is nice. My advice to kdrama fans is that it’s too early to include an Apple + subscription as a must have if you don’t already have one. But if you do have a subscription and are looking for a well-made drama with an edgy sci-fi touch, this one is well worth investing the 6 episodes. And did I mention, you get to listen to Lee Sun Kyun? Enough said. I give “Dr. Brain” an 8 out of 10 ramen.
