first of all, i just want to say that this kdrama is not one i would normally go towards but i LOVED it !! so much !! the plot was heavy but the plot didn't feel heavy or get boring in the middle which is normally what happens in plot heavy dramas, it was beautiful, i felt all emotions, i felt happy, sad, angry, it was just all in all mindblowing. the writing, the cinematography, the characters, the acting EVERYTHING. there was so much meaning, it was written beautifully and every single character had so much depth, including the side characters which was great to see. i loved the settings, i loved how every single character had a part in the drama and they each had a meaningful story which we got to see. we were shown the patients stories and why they were in there and it was just so mind opening. the representation of each mental illness was beautiful.


i also loved seeing the development every character had, especially our main characters. the relationship development between sangtae and gangtae was so beautiful and meaningful, i cried so much for them both. the found family too
however the reason i didn't give it a full 10 stars was because, at the beginning, it was very confusing and boring, it was hard to get into until around episode 4. also, the ending was a bit of a let down, i wish we saw more from the ending, i'm glad we got to see the patients ending especially pilwong, jungtae, areum and gi-do but i wish we saw more for the other characters endings for example, i wish we got to see how the publishing company was after the release of the last book, i wanted to see more for jaesu and seungjae. i feel as though the ending was a bit rushed to be completely honest but it still was an amazing and beautiful drama that deserves all the hype it got. i genuinely don't think there'll ever be a kdrama like this again
