Brain Works (2023) User Reviews

Very entertaining but could be a little Better executed

[thammylagares · 9/10 · 3 April 2023]

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.

I loved this kdrama, i really did. Usually, I only watch romance kdramas but I saw the description for Brain Works and was instantly hooked. The two main male leads have a great friendship full of funny moments and moments where they save each other. On top of the interesting plot, you can also learn new things about the brain (I found out that smell is the strongest sense a human has because it is remembered better by the brain and is associated with emotions and memories better).

I LOVED that each character grows throughout the kdrama: starting with the neuroscientist, followed by the team lead, and ending with the ex-wife that stopped being so crazy

the ending is a bit funny.
