An encompassment of so many complex emotions

Well the story isn't exactly a happy one but it left me feeling so warm, that inspite of having cried in each episode I remember smiling through the tears...the inner turmoils of a terminally ill patient was shown with such caution and care, with him going through various stages of acceptance, regret, anger, desperation...all done so delicately. The way the parents were trying to show constant consideration but were scared of having him gone before they even got to know his true self was heart wrenching...them feeling guilty of not having known what he truly liked, somehow led to them accepting the estranged younger brother in such a liberating manner...Then his dynamics with his girlfriend was so real and beautiful, with her realizing how precious the feeling was of not having to see the person you love leave first...her way of consoling him with simpler things was so hopeful yet devastating...The way his lost friendship with his college friends was rekindled with just a short exchange of words and how much they knew of each others' likes and dislikes was so intimate and heartwarming...The sequences of him dreaming the other world was unreal yet so connected to what was happening in his life...and that led to him accepting that he loved the life he had led and that their is no life without regrets because in a way that's how one finds meaning...
Overall it was a brilliant watch and kudos to Jisoo for having pulled off this role fantastically...This drama actually makes me want to satisfy my every whim and live to the fullest since I may not know if there will be a tomorrow...
