Love, rest, and heal : A path to overcoming Depression
This drama blends comedy, romance, and mental health issues to give a masterpiece; It also shows the importance of taking care of yourself and your mental health, which is a much-needed message that everyone needs to hear.
The beginning was slow, however, the drama quickly began to quick up in the following episodes; the story is interesting, and you see yourself watching in anticipation of what's going to happen in the following episodes.
- Plot: So far, the plot is set up nicely and as the episodes progress, you can see the character's growth as well as the slow healing process. The past and the presence flashbacks scenes are well down and do not become annoying, instead are a delightful watch.
Also, I liked that both characters were going through something that they helped one another heal and grow; instead of one lead following around the other "to help them" both of the leads were actively trying to help one another and saw each other at their lowest as they healed together.
The genre of comedy and romance are well balanced along with addressing important mental health issues like healing through depression. I know I will be going back and rewatching this drama in the future.
- Acting: This drama is Park Shin-Hye's return to the screen and she's doing an amazing job acting alongside Hyung Sik. They pulled off those high school outfits and did not look as if they aged since they saw each other 11 years ago!
Also, the kissing scene has not come back yet, but they have done such a good job at acting, I wouldn't mind if the kissing scenes were awful.
- Music: The music gives very nostalgic feelings and adds warmth to the drama, instead of taking away from it. Sometimes, we see the music taking over the drama and distracting us from watching, but in this drama, the music did not do that, instead added to it.
Overall, this drama is a light-hearted watch with important themes regarding mental health. Watching them grow and heal, truly does heal something within you as well. So, make sure to watch it because you end up loving it! (so obsessed!!)
