A Piece of Your Mind

It is both slow paced and confusing at the beginning, I almost drop it if it's for JHI's sake. You need extra patience at the beginning to fully immerse into the drama. Starting ep 2-3 the story is getting interesing and you will slowly emphatized the unrequited love. And you will find yourself smile, giggle and cry with the characters. The story is beautiful, warm and healing, not to mention the OST and cinematography. *SPOILER* Even the break up scene is beautiful! the only thing I'd complain is TvN shortened the episode.

First things first:

This is one of the most underrated dramas I've seen so far. I'm pretty sure due to poor ratings and views the drama was cut down to only 12 episodes because no other drama has such an unusual number of episodes. And all of that because the majority was too impatient to give this slow-paced drama a true chance.

It is a bit confusing and odd in the first two episodes and because you don't understand what is going on at first it may also come off as boring.

But in episode 3 (4 at the latest) you start to realize that this show is anything but. It's comforting, warm and I felt like I was on a trip of emotional healing myself instead of just watching the show's characters heal.

This show is like honey on a soar throat. The glue for a broken heart. Wellness for your emotional health.

Definitely one of my faves.

The minus point is for the weird first two episodes and the fact that I didn't quite understand the female lead's behavior in the final episode (probably because the ending was kind of rushed because of the cut down number of episodes and them trying to put everything in one final episode without having the time to explain every action perfectly well).

I rarely write a review for a drama. But in my opinion, this drama deserves to be appreciated. This drama sounds slow but all the characters are well explained. This drama is very refreshing because we can get involved in their stories, both those that makes us smile and cry with their characters

It's understandable why they cut the number of episodes and why the ratings weren't so good. The beginning is undeniably slow, a little weird, and confusing, and you end up with more questions than answers. I was still kind of lost by around the 4th and 5th episodes.

BUT once you get past that, you realize that this is actually a really well thought out story. It all comes together toward the end. There's a consistent theme of dealing with grief and eventually overcoming it. The visuals (cinematography, locations, colors) are just absolutely beautiful, and the feels from the soundtracks are going to stay with me for a while. The acting is realistic and never over the top.

Overall, I'd give this a rating of 8.5. Recommended for those looking for a meaningful show to watch.

Actually i never give review to any drama that i ever watched. But this drama really deserving a review. This drama so fascinating and realistic. And in my opinion, the plot, the developing feelings between the two main roles is beautiful and not too fast. Also, this drama need more support, recognition. This drama really worth to watch.
