Very Adorable and Heartwarming

From someone that doesn't often watch Kdramas, I thought this was fantastic short little series. I can't think of a single complaint to give. I wasn't bored, the pacing was good, and the ending satisfying and heartwarming.

I thought the story was very simple but effective. I can't relate to or say how accurate the bipolar disorder representation was, but the depression portrayal was much better than other ones I've seen. Of course depression looks different for everyone, but the way the ML expressed his was quite accurate and relatable. My heart hurt for him in a way that it usually doesn't when I watch TV and it pulled me back to the days I was going through mild depression. The hopelessness, the blank expressions, the foggy negative thoughts, and the constant feeling that nothing you or anyone else does or say will make anything better was well represented.

As far as Johui, I really liked her. I would have loved to see more of her array of emotions and how her condition made her act as a child, but seeing how short this was I really don't mind.

The actors and everyone involved did a fantastic job, I'm definitely rewatching soon.
