The Psychologist (2021)

Unique and Educational

This is a first for cdrama that is dealing with such topic , I have anxiety and had depression that even my family doesn't understand . I go to psychologist which my mother doesn't understand why but support me anyway. I think someone dealing with such mental problem can relate so this show really open the viewers and give such great insight to mental illness for those family members of patients with mental illness. YangZi played the role really well as Psychologist really uses their ear a lot by listening and give advise. I hope that in the future , Metal Illness will be better understood esp this time of pandemic

I thought Yang Zi was a psychologist

If you're doubting this drama might not benefit you for someone who is interested in psychology because of some other dramas that might have disappointed, don't think twice, go for this! Yang zi's role as a psychologist made me think she was actually a physchologist in reality because she really played the role well and I'm deeply impressed. I've watched some of her dramas and I can say she's really great at acting and she deserves more popularity. I liked the fact that this drama pulled the genres well and my favorite character s were the leads and the second female lead. The male lead brought the light(fun) to this drama and the female lead brought the knowledge. Every character in this drama played their role well and I liked her crazy badass best friend. And their chemistry?yes!I really loved it!I'll continue to watch yang zi drama because she never dissapoints. So if you're here looking at the reviews thinking the drama might be boring,trust me,the male lead is there to entertain you!

Female Psychologist is a Female Centric Drama

expectations about this drama is so hight bec of the title itself female psychologist,plus having a award winning director and a well read novel and well known writer in china all of this elements were already a challenge for the team cause people expectations becomes to high to meet so most of the review s floating now specially those who have questions and negative reactions were expect ed. But to let people know 'Female Psychol ogist is actually a female centric drama' which focuses more on the psychologist life main female lead He Dun-her relationship with various people including friends family colleagues lover and her profession as a psychologist how she works with her clients cases including providing help and solution and how she will be able to handle her own life circumstances along side, the story of each client she have may not include too much details and focus but that is merely b ec their story is just supporting the idea of being a psychologist as a profession hence it will highlight what main character is portraying, if the director and screen writer focuses too much on patient case then we can change the title to the female psychologist and her clients case not female psychologist alone. Aside from her everyday life t he main protagonist also have a dark life backgroud which she needs to mend as the story progresses, the romance side is just a bonus, the challenge in romance is both f I and ml are good friends in real life best fr iends so there might have those awkward moments at times that audience can feel. there maybe technical phasing that needs a djustments, but the plot is clear and the dr ama was able to show several types of psychological trauma some people experiences and what are the possible solutions a psychologist can give in order to help them so at some p oint viewers can have an idea on what the issue is. For those people who feels that there is lackness about the authenticity of the psychological cases presented, just so you know the drama is based in a fiction novel, and only was inspired by real life situation it s not base in true story.

I like the female lead and most of the movies she’s in but this one is definitely different. Although I like studying the human mind, watching this is like peeking in on back to back counseling sessions with a twinge of psycho on the side. After a bit it becomes unentertaining. It’s like one of the hospital series without the excitement. Although mental health is just as important as physical health, watching them gives off completely different vibes, I’m sad to say I feel that they failed to deliver on this one. They could have found a way to incorporate various elements into the story that wouldn’t make it so drab.

Imagine seeing someone with a condition and all of a sudden some expert gives you a thorough explanation/diagnoses and symptoms. Good right? Yes in reality but not TV land. I felt like I was in a psychology class.

Not sure I can even finish this.

started somewhat interesting and feel towards a steep hill dowwards

DISCLAIMER- this drama is not focused on romance ! also 40 ep is way to long.

It started really promising with the cases, but eventually it got kinda boring! Like it would be the same format and i became impatient with the female lead trying to listen to all of the different types of disorders. What might of made it more interesting is to use text to show what is the definition of certain disorders, like bipolar, body dismorphia, panic attack, etc.

Whats annoying is you know there is an evil person, but that person still hasnt show their true motives and is basically doing so much behind the leads back. He also gets way too much on screen time! Super creepy.....

Also the leads dont have chemsistry! like I already watched until episode 27 and there is nothing!

Waste of time honestly

I came into this expecting a super intelligent female lead considering how they introduced her character in the first few episodes; she even has superhuman hearing. However, the female lead seems stupid and has no suspicions when a mysterious neighbour moves in and she is unable to read him at all. Somehow she is good enough to "heal" and fix all of her client's problems in just ONE therapy session visit, but she can't even sense anything from a suspicious neighbour that has moved in for WEEKS? There's no logic behind this and ruins the drama entirely.

If you're a fan of romance, this drama definitely contains it. If you're looking for a logical story through and through, this just isn't it.

Less psychology and more "drama-romance"

Acting is way better than most other Chinese dramas.
Tried to fully replicate itself into a korean drama.
The show had waaay too much potential even the acting cast was good but the stupid misandrous romance just doesn't stop to ruin every other drama on this planet!!! I am just tired of it! Seriously, what is with drama industry and misandy?
This drama had amazing potential even the start to first 5-6 episodes were good.. but then the focus shifted from psychology to romance and drama under-delivered like hell . This is even worse than Geely GE copying Rolce Royce.

I don't like the drama

I had watched drama till episode 24 ,slowly slowly I lost interest in this drama . I like the chemistry between the leads and even I liked their loved story but as I had written that I slowly loose the interest towards this drama so I stopped watching it and decided to drop it.
The reason why I don't like the drama may be the way she treat the patient and by closing her eye she judge the scenerio which was not possible in real life so I felt like fake .
It is personal view , I personally will say that first watch it atleast 20 to 24 episodes then decide either continue or drop it.

The story still leaving many question, but not very bad, don't expect much if you want to watch

if only for romance drama lovers or multiple case stories lovers, , this drama is not too bad to watch,,, but if you are a lover of details, or really hate hanging dramas, maybe you can wait until there are additional scenes or new season to watch, maybe spin off as said? or S2? ,, actually not that bad

The ending is not finished, and it looks like there is a continue or maybe season 2 in the last eps 40 has a notification,, there are still leaving alot lf questions, unfinished story,,if there is, hopefully as soon as possible before the story is forgotten


The story about the psychologist is very interesting, and his case is also the case that most people experience, very worthy to be used as a reference or opinion in life,,, the acting of the cast leads, guests, supports are also very supportive, maybethere is only 1 person who i thinks lacking or over

unfortunately for a film like this, it doesn't get good shooting and editing,, has very poor detail, ignoring the basic detail problems of filming,, cast clothes, day and night light, scene waste or repeats, many scenes that i thinks are unnecessary, unnecessary secreting cast face, but a lot of scenes that need are lacking

Regarding the cut scene, at the beginning of the drama it was still not felt and the scene was quite complete, in the middle of the drama the cut scene or lacking scene just felt, especially in the last few episodes


Since the first episode of watching, what caught my attention was the "cast clothes",,, the lead, supporting or guest,, they usually don't change clothes for 3-4 days, very basic details, some consuls client 3 4 times consuls with the same clothes,, I think it's low budget and i count the lead male clothes until ep 40,,, a total of approximately 16-18 clothes, should be enough to change it everyday, and should enough to not attract attention, especially the lead male clothes are very patterned, very difficult not to attract attention, if his clothes are identical black, then still not so eye catching , especially this is a film about psychology that pays attention to every detail,, male lead's clothes start changed every day starting from ep 20, although there are still scenes where the clothes change to their previous clothes, then change back, but in eps 27 the clothes are worn again for 3 4 days, the same clothes

There are still many unfinished stories and many scenes that honestly i don't understand
1. Wasn't the F file burned by prof ji? (ep17 ,17:00+) Why is prof ye still telling jiahui to look for that file?
2. What is the relationship between Hedun's brother's death and she cutting her hair short?
3. The opening case has not yet been completed, regarding a mother who is seriously ill and wants a divorce, her daughter and skn hates hedun
4. How did Yejiahui's mother separate from Ji and marry Yejicheng?
5. Hedun and his father's problem
6. tanglili and her boyfriend's relationship
7. prof ji and Ye relationship
8. and more and more


regarding the details that make me weird is
1. Hedun if she is traumatized by her brother's problem, herself says she can't stand being in a room without windows. 3 hours is the duration of a radio show, why can a claustrophobic person still able to take the elevator?
2.fu tang ,, her self-introduction is she is an acute OCD sufferer?, let's just say that if she recovered because of prof ji, but why is an OCD person still able to take jiahui out to eat? Even though when jiahui came out to play she bathed him until he bled?

Too soon to tell

Well Im not yet engaged by this series. Yang zi's character is being portrayed like Sherlock Holmes in her perception and assessment of situations and there is an annoying visualisation of information which she swipes through. She is coming over as caring to those in difficulty but rather cold and analytical in person.
Everything is rather choppy as it goes between scenes and charactets- its as if the director is trying too hard to be different.
Lets see if the series improves and begins to gain a sense of direction. At the moment there are several intimated past difficulties and charactersxwhose role and motivation is not yet clear.
Episode 8
Im really not feeling this drama. I find the psychological sessions laughable - one session and all is solved? He Dan is strong but unbending and static in both her character and how Yang is acting. Maybe she will become softer but not sure I can wait for it!
The mysterious neighbour is acting stealthily but so far no intimation i of why and I fear that the reason easin may be ludicrous as the rest of this drama so far. So didappointing as i love her in her other dramas.
