Another overrated drama
The reason I was so reluctant to watch this drama was Park Shin Hye. She is not my favorite actress at all. I always thought she was very unprofessional, especially in the kissing scenes. She always looked like she was being assaulted in the kissing scenes. I never understood why he kept getting involved in romantic dramas if he was uncomfortable doing kissing scenes. That made his colleagues also feel uncomfortable. I remember in The Heirs, it was in the script that they had to kiss for real but she was "surprised" but in the end they "were able to do it" when she literally left Lee Min Hoo like he was forcing her or something.
But on the other hand there was Park Hyung Sik. So I decided to see him.
This drama started well but as it progressed it became more chaotic and boring. They didn't evolve, they continued to behave as if they were in high school. Much of the misunderstandings they had were because they did not know how to solve problems like two adults.
And it is disappointing that the secondary couple had a more realistic development and with more chemistry than the main characters themselves.
I have seen many dramas that portray depression and parents being unable to understand that being "successful" at work or academically is not the only thing that makes you feel really good about yourself or be happy.
I can say that they addressed the topic decently. Although if you are taking psychiatrist pills you should not drink, we all know that, right? I have really gotten used to the Korean alcohol culture, they always use some excuse to drink, but when you are under psychiatric treatment you should not drink or ingest other substances. It doesn't matter if they wanted to add a "cute" touch to it. It's not right for you to give that message. So I would say that they handled that situation in a very sloppy way.
When the mystery is over, the drama goes downhill and becomes very boring. Believe me, it took me 15 days to finish this drama because I was getting incredibly bored.
Honestly there was no chemistry between the protagonists. I think it would have been better if they remained friends. Their relationship was fine the way it was.
I honestly think it was unnecessary to add romance between the two of them.
Although Park Shin Hye seems to have improved her dislike of kissing scenes a bit. He wouldn't say it was a breakthrough or that there was a big passionate scene. He still can't create chemistry with his co-workers.
Park Shin Hye you are not forced to do romantic dramas. You can do thriller or mystery dramas. I think that would suit her better.
The acting was decent, I wouldn't say it was extraordinary. If not decent, nothing more. From both main actors.
The very forgettable ost. The cinematography doesn't stand out either.
The only thing I can say that the notable acting were the secondary ones. And what kept me watching this drama was only the secondary couple.
I can recommend many dramas that deal with mental health better. This for me is not recommended.
