Better as a Movie

Hi all , I really liked this drama but I feel like it should've been a movie instead . I got so borred at most parts . Some events and characters ( seung jae , his best friend , ju ri , director's son , the other nurse ...)seemed unnecessary .
I honestly continued watching because of Seo ye ji's and Oh jung se's performances , amazing talents , I hope they win many awards.
Many scenes and senarios kept on being repeted , similarly, some questions were left unanswered such as :
-Where is patient Park ? How was the head nurse capable of discharging her in the first place ?only a doctor mainly the chief doctor or professor can make this decision .
-How did MY mother survive ?
-Why wasn't there an investigation on MY's father's death ?
-Why was he ( My's father) hospitalized in a psychiatric hospital instead of a neurosurgical department?
-Why is an alcoholic in a psychiatric hospital instead of a rehab center ?
-Did that girl give the manuscript of "the witch of the west to sang in?
-Did MY's book become a success?
-Did MY decide to continue writing ? Did GT study and got into university ?
-Did Juri become the head nurse?
...etc)
As for the production , it was the worst that I've seen in any K-drama. The transitions were so swift instead of being smooth . Adding to that , there were these long pauses and awkward silences of the main characters looking at eachother blankly without at least an OST playing in the background (especially in the first episodes ) .
Again , Wardrobe was okay ( yes it could've been way better ) but the problematic part were the nails , horrible, especially the white nailpolish .
However , the chemistry between kim soo hyun and Seo ye ji is undeniable. Love them to bits . Hope they become a real couple , get married and have cute children. I also love the other couple of the alcoholic and the abused , they're extremely cute as well.
Overall and again , this should have been a movie directed by another PD with less insignificant characters .
I personally, wouldn't rewatch it .
