Very insightful, cute and fun for the most part

Mad for each other is a surprising good drama especially because I didn't expected much from it. It surprisingly was very insightful.
It revolves around the story of a woman who is diagnosed with delusion and a man who suffers from pted (aka anger, aggressive behaviour in reaction to negative life events especially if they think its unfair to them). This aspect itself sets it apart from the rest of the dramas that never showcase such topics. A life of a person with delusion is shown so well, it was so heartbreaking to see the female lead suspect everything including herself. But pted wasnt so well shown, his problem was mostly ignored except the first few and last few episodes.
The reasoning of why both of them are the way they were was satisfying to watch especially the female lead. The female lead's story was so well portrayed and really made me empathize with her.
It clearly showed how mental illness affects the life of people, such clear portrayal is literally never shown in a drama. You could see how positive bright, hard working and competent the leads were before the illness. It showed clearly that mental illness doesn't just "go away" if you just "stop being sad, stop worrying, stop being anxious " and how much work you need to actually put in to treat yourself.
The drama also touches upon personal choices of how a person likes to present themselves.
The chemistry of the leads and how the relationship develops is really nice to watch and they're super cute together. The acting was pretty good along with iconic looks like flower behind the ears and sunglasses, will never forget it!
The osts were all good too I'd probably come back to them.
Now this was gonna be a 9 or 9.5 rated drama for me but then 11th episode happened and things started to go downhill. Literally all the hardwork the writer put in to build such a great plotline was lost by the ridiculous progression of the story.
From 11th to finale, the show was a mess with no logical reasoning, no problems solved, and rushing of the story like the writer didn't know how to proceed. We had random car chasing like its mission impossible, some random arguments, random singing on the street etc. The ending was happy but it didn't give me the satisfaction the first 10 episodes gave me.
Mad for each other is a small drama with 13 ep of around 40 mins, it is quite insightful and I think it is worth it though the ending is not so well done. I recommend it.
