Best portrayal of depression in an asain drama

This drama has the best example of
a depressed person I've ever seen
till now. Like I haven't seen a
depressed person is real life so I
can't say but after reading some
books and articles online and in real
life I got an idea of it. I'm so glad

this drama exists, even though it's
underrated af but I'm thankful to the
producers to make this kind of
drama cuz it really was needed.
Now for those who don't know about
it. The drama focuses one a high
school teen named boo who's
suffering from depression for quite

a long time. He does not know what
to do so he Google research like
any teenager and finds out that he
has symptoms of depression and so
he immediately told his father about
but his father said " it's just
SADNESS, you'll get over it. Focus
on your studies" after hearing that

boo knew that he ain't getting help
from anybody and he also tries to do
suicide but one thing stopped him -
his skateboard. One day, he stole a
skateboard from a guy name Simon
and now he loves to skate. It's the
only thing in his life that makes him
happy. The drama is his journey of

how he dealt with his depression
with the help of his friends and
family. The way they executed the
story was brilliant. I loved the
cinematography of it. I know it has
nothing to do with the psychological
genre but the colour of the drama
was of neon. They always used

neon colour or red and green which
really was amazing cuz that created
the atmosphere matching with the
storyline. The acting of every actor
was so good. Specially James and
Simon's actor. They really did an
mind-blowing performance. The
other actors were good too but

these two were just incredibly
amazing. It really felt like a drama
about a depressed person when the
colours were all neon. Boo's journey
was showed amazingly. I loved the
psychiatrist character's portrayal
and how she was an intern and
hence she had more feelings for

boo. Simon was an amusing
character and I loved him for that.
I loved how they showed that his
friends and his dad slowly started
to accept the fact that he's
depressed and slowly started to
understand his situation. It wasn't
quick and it wasn't that they were
not trying to but they took time as

a normal person would. I loved
every character's development and
how in the end they gave us a
beautiful message, you don't need
a beautiful reason to live, being
alive is beautiful in its own.
