This is your sign to visit Gye soo clinic's psychiatrist, again!

If you've completed s1 and wondering whether to watch s2 or if you're wondering whether to start this drama at all, well, you definitely should. (It's best to start from s1 though)
But after finishing s1, the first 2,3 episodes might feel a bit frustrating due to that specific character, but she is also a patient, thus we must be patient and listen to her side of the story as well.
The story was well paced, building up to a neat and well deserved happy ending. This drama became surprisingly heartfelt for me. I absolutely love Yoo se yeob, played by Kim min jae (Dali and the cocky prince), and i personally think saeguk attire suits him best. It's my first te seeing the FL but I loved her too. Gye ji han was amazing, he was played by the talented kim sang kyung (Memories of murder, Crowned clown) and I will get to him in a moment. First let me list the aspects of this which I especially enjoyed.

Love story - it's about two wounded souls healing each other and becoming their best versions. They have everything, great chemistry with heart fluttering scenes that made me grin from ear to ear, and emotional depth that will make one genuinely root for them. They are two beautiful and interesting individuals in their own rights. And their story is like a stream flowing through many obstacles, only making it stronger and adding to its beauty. Our ML, Yoo se yeob or poong, is just the right amount of clingy and mature. It is very admirable how he recognizes the skills of his lady Seo eun woo and encourages her to go out into the world and make a name for herself, thus provinng herself and earning her own freedom. I was definitely impressed by how they dealt head on with all the problems that were thrown their way, without trying to hide or run away.

Found family done right- the gye soo clinic family is all made up of people rescued by its owner physician Gye ji han. From Ip bun, lady namhae, jan gun and granny to yoo se yeob and his manservant man bok and lady seo eun woo. I usually don't like to watch this many side characters but all of their interactions felt very genuine. I found myself laughing out loud watching their chaos and ended up caring, worrying and loving each and everyone one of them. They all had distinct personalities and scenes were a real pleasure to watch.

Gye ji han - he became such an endearing character but i don't know how to describe him. First he appears to be that father figure who give a bit of wisdom to the leads and provide some comic relief. Well he does that, but he's so much more. He is witty, smart, funny and wise. I will miss his sharp words and manner of speaking with those gestures and expressions.

And man talk about annoying villains.. Thought we were done with them after s1, but here they come one after another.. But the finale is very satisfying as they redeemed those who were deserving and sent off others as they so deserved, for their crimes against our leads and also for getting on my nerves so much.
All in all wonderful drama, would recommend to everyone!
