Father & Son
Not knowing what to watch, after finally dropping about 5 dramas after 3/4 episodes, I started this one because it was on the top of my PTW list. I said to myself: I'll give it a go, the episodes are short! I ended up binge watching it in an afternoon! And loved every second of it.
49 is the number of day a soul wanders on Earth after death. In this case it is the father who became ghost after saving his son in a car accident. The father borrows his son's body in order to sort out some unfinished business with his family. Both son and father get more than they bargained for from this soul infestation. While the father realizes he'd been wasting his life on work, his son discovers the joy of life and friends and being confident.
The drama deals with heavy topics of life, death and grief, love, friendship, school and bullying but it is an easy watch. The father in his son's body goes around with adult's attitude, taking no nonsense from other kids making them respect him and therefore his son. He wants to make his son's life in school better. Soon the father enlists the help of his son's slight acquaintances from school creating a tight and varied group of friends. This is what high school should be but it is not. Therefore the tag is fantasy!!!! But one can dream that kids could be nice to each other and not eaten up by jealousy and envy! Sometimes the watch is a bit uncomfortable especially when the father in his son's body interacts with the mother. The father is full of regrets about neglecting his family just to give them a good life and he still has strong feelings for his wife!
The main actor is amazing: I think he was 17 when he filmed this. The transitions from father to son were flawless and you could see who was in charge of the body just by slight changes in posture and facial micro expressions! Amazing. The rest of the cast is just as good! The basketball team, in order to help the son's sister, create an idol-like group Chicken Basket who perform in a club! They are simply incredible!
This drama is a gem, deftly striking the balance between the fun and the serious! I hope that the main actor has a great career. He amply deserves it! Go watch this, you won't regret it!
