Premise and story is promising but execution fell flat.

I had really high hopes for this because I am a sucker for sad and melancholic movies with a deep message but I finished the movie disappointed. The message of the movie is deep, I have to give credit to but I can’t get pass how there are so much lack of context to what exactly happen to youngster doctor that made him depressed and traumatized. Without sufficient time to explain his traumas, it just makes his suffering hollow.

In terms of music, I understand they trying to go for the least obvious, by using not so melancholic music but the use of more upbeat tunes just makes the emotional part very distracting for me.

Also, I just feel that the side characters (particularly the hospital members) are wasted in this show. I don’t see a need to have them in the plot tbh, they add nothing much substantial to it. Overall, meaningful message but badly executed movie.
