Daily Dose of Sunshine (2023)

Drama is so good

Oh my goodness, this drama is so good! 🥺😭🤍
Daily dose of sunshine is my new favorite drama! Even though Daeun's first day is already stressful it was a heartwarming drama. I found myself getting quite attached to the characters from the psychiatric ward because they had their own personalities nurses, physicians, guardians, and patients.

I enjoyed how each episode's narration and the patient's perspective on mental illness were portrayed. It was also entertaining to watch the love line between Go Yoon-da-eun and Yoo Chan-da-eun Yeo Hwan-deul-le!

One of the best of the recent Netflix originals!!! ♥️

Mental illness is an unpredictable illness that can strike anyone, anywhere, at any. I'm thinking a lot about this line.

Mental disorders trigger warnings

One of the most realistic ones I've seen on the painful topic of dealing with mental health disorders from both sufferers and caregivers perspective. Up until around the halfway mark, I had thought the poster image for this drama is quite deceiving. This isn't a happy, feel good drama and comes with a lot of trauma and mental affliction trigger warnings of all kind including unaliving oneself. It also explores the impact all of these have on their loved ones which I'm sure will hit close to home for a lot of the viewers.
However as the story progresses I began to see it's not all dark and gloom and it does a great job portraying both sides in their daily efforts to get better, be happy humans or sometimes just get through the day. As is often the case in real life, some of their stories are successful, some are not but by the end of the show I no longer felt tricked by the poster image.
The deliberate light romance doesn't take away from the essence of the issues they're trying to bring across, focusing instead on deeper, more heartfelt emotions. It does start to drag a little in the second half but I still found it absolutely worth watching and empathized with all the characters right till the end.
Some might find this boring, just understand this is a slice of life type drama so if this isn't your thing you can just skip it. But if you or someone close to you has worked in this field, then you know that a lot of what you see in this drama does actually happen and the toll it takes can be incredibly hard to overcome.
