I'm really sad that in this week there will not be a new episode of Border with Oguri. For me it was the one of best drama from this season - the second one is Mozu. I really liked and enjoyed each episode, because we had a various type of criminal and death. It was only 9 episodes, but I wished there were more~
Okay, so drama is about a detective, Ango Ishikawa, who was in the wrong place at the wrong time and shot in the head. But he miraculously survives and bullet remains in his head, because operation is too risky. Due to this accident he start to see dead people, who help him solve the cases of their own death.
At the beginning I was little afraid of this plot. What? Death people? Again? Not long ago there was another two korean drama about seeing ghosts Who are you? and Ghost Seeing Detective Cheo Yong - I saw only the first one though, but it was so-so for me. That's why I didn't have high expectations. But after one episode I was caught like a rat in a trap and I regretted that there is only one episode per week. This drama had everything I like: no romans, crime, suspense, mystery and psychopaths - yeah, this may be a little bit strange, but I like twisted characters xD
人は死んだらどこに行くんだろう?
(Where do people go when they die?)
Of course, besides Ishikawa, we have another interesing characters. His boss - Ichikura (Endo Kenichi - lately I see him in almost every drama that I start watching lol), who often reprimand Ango to don't be carried away by ceases, because it may end badly for him. Buddy from team - Tachibana (Aoki Munetaka - I love this guy and his appearance in Yuusha was epic xD) - at the beginning I thought he was jealous of Ishikawa and they don't get along well, but then began their fiendship - I really liked his scenes with Oguri<3 So, next one is coroner Higa (Haru), who is a excellent coroner of course and have her own way of working. Akai (Furuta Arata - 朝だよ~~! - sorry, I had to write this xD), who belongs to the underground world and help Ango. And the las,t one - duo Sai-kun and Ga-kun (Hamano Kenta and Nomaguchi Toru), who are hackers and they are really useful for Ishikawa.
実は正義や悪に大した違いはないんです。
(There's not a huge difference between justice and evil.)
We got a different types of cases from a serial killer to simple death. And even if we sometimes know murder from the start it's not boring at all - that goes for me, but I know that everyone has different tastes :P And about last epiosde... Well, the end was a shock for me, because I didn't expect something like this (I don't write about it, because maybe few of you haven't seen this drama yet), but after I thought a little bit about it, this couldn't end otherwise, because from the start we slowly been heading in this direction.
I hope that those who watched this drama also enjoyed it as I, and those who didn't watched it yet - do it. Because this series is really worth to watch :D Oh, and if someone know where I can find OST, I'll be really grateful~
And at the end I give you some photos from the set xD
