Countdown to Life: Rescue at 30,000 Feet
Description
America’s top billionaire, Derek Wolf, is dying and hires elite surgeon Shaun to bring a donor kidney by plane for a secret transplant. But the flight is delayed when Kim — mother of Jessica, who’s engaged to Derek’s grandson Erik — goes to the bathroom. When Shaun urges them to hurry, Jessica humiliates him. After takeoff, Kim suffers a heart attack, and Shaun saves her, breaking her ribs in the process. Ungrateful, Jessica demands Shaun apologize in a humiliating way. When he refuses, she threatens to destroy the kidney. Forced to reveal Derek’s condition, Shaun pleads, but Jessica doesn’t believe him — until she smashes the case and sees the name on it: Derek Wolf, her own fiancé’s grandfather.

As a Male short drama, "Countdown to Life: Rescue at 30,000 Feet" exceeded my expectations. The storyline is interlocking, and the actors' performances are online without awkward acting. The only drawback might be the rushed ending, but overall it's a good drama worth recommending.
