Ji Chang-Wook And Sooyoung May Grant Wishes In 'If You Wish ... (Forbes)

The drama is based on the real life story of a Dutch retired ambulance driver Kees Veldboer, who heads the Ambulance Wish Foundation.

Drama segments set in the hospice occasionally settle for being very sentimental, but Ji’s tough-yet-vulnerable character brings a sense of gravity to the scenes he appears in. Gyro-re grew up an orphan and now that he’s done his prison time has no one to turn to, no home, no job and no reason to live. It’s the same hospice where Tae-sik uses the ambulance to help terminally ill patients fulfill their final wishes.

It is quite possible that Gyeo-re had been assaulted by his father as a child which is the same wound Tae-sik noticed on his back.

He is with his homeless friends as he rests with them on the skywalk. Tae-sik grabs Gyeo-re by his collar as he left the station to inspect the scar and realizes that Gyeo-re is his son. At Mr. Yoon’s funeral, his son and daughter-in-law make a scene in order to push their guilt of negligence over to the hospice staff. He takes Gyeo-re to the police station to report the accident and discovers that Gyeo-re is homeless and has a wound on his back. As Gyeo-re is on the highway in his sports car, he is being chased by Seo-jun and his goons. Gyeo-re and Sonny are at the beach where Gyeo-re contemplates drowning into the ocean with his pet after he suffers a trauma attack. As he is about to go further into the ocean, Tae-sik grabs a hold of him. Meanwhile, the staff at Woori Hospice are preparing to bid Mr. Yoon a farewell as they set up a Christmas Tree in the middle of summer. The group of people called Team Genie grant the last wish of the patients of the hospice and today is Mr. Yoon’s turn. He freshens up and goes to the cafeteria to grab a meal prepared by the hospital lunch lady.
