5 stars for the guts to make this available for viewing

There's a slight chance that the series might make sense to you if I tell you that it's purely the hallucinatory fantasies of a someone who has broken up with his boyfriend. It's just someone hallucinating about different possibilities in different parallel universes--that's why the scenes seem dreamlike and the movement from one scene to another make no sense at all. That's also why sometimes the doctors and nurses in the hospital where one of the main characters work seem so busy and sometimes they seem so free. That's also why doctors and nurses can save a patient by chanting a spell.

Maybe there's a way to make more sense of the series if you rewatch it a few more times, but it isn't intriguing enough to rewatch. It's as though someone saw Gen Y 2 (which also features Kim and Cop as the leads) saw how bad it was and decided to make something worse simply because such a feat is challenging.

And simply because someone has the guts to make the series and present it as we see it, the series deserves at least 5 stars.

The series starts off somewhat reasonably, with a couple on the verge of breaking up because one party barely has time for the other. Yet, the characters quickly seem unreasonable. Yes, Guy is so busy with his work that he misses his appointment with Jing, but Jing doesn't seem to care what explanation he has. And as for Guy, isn't there such a thing as paid leave for nurses?

To make matters worse, BOTH Guy and Jing get close to leaving someone who has collapsed outside the hospital in the lurch. Yes, Guy has the inclination to help, but he hesitates because he doesn't want to upset Jing. And Jing is visibly upset that his boyfriend is going to help someone who has collapsed instead of going out to celebrate his (Guy's) birthday. (Hey, it's Guy's birthday--why not let him do something moral as a present?) It doesn't take that long to carry the person into the hospital where there are doctors and nurses on duty, you idiots!

So yes, the only way I can make sense of the series is to understand it as a series of hallucinations (maybe by Guy, who wishes that something can be done to salvage his relationship with Jing). Even the possibility that most of the scenes are merely a movie within a movie (Jing is involved in some student movie production) doesn't make sense.
