Most people are not ready for this kind of kdrama, but I guess it's time
It is a very unique drama that really needs to be appreciated. It was a big step to produce a full-length drama tackling about different mental health disorders. This drama is very psych-heavy but I guess people need to be aware of these disorders too. They need proper treatment and not judgement. The story is a bit cliche but they really added a unique touch to it. Since this Psych-themed drama shows how their thoughts run in their minds, I love how they portray these thoughts using animation and exaggeration (for differentiation from reality). People with mental health disorders might not be able to distinguish reality from their imaginations, thoughts, or fantasies, but the people around them could. We should show them that we understand them and we care for them (Just like how Gang Tae does it). It's good that they get treatment. I just wish Mun Yeong will also get treated. I know her character will still develop so let's wait for it. However, we must not romanticize her inappropriate actions. She has anti-social personality disorder which makes her unable to distinguish between right and wrong. This must not be tolerated and Gang Tae is doing a great job correcting her. This is still ongoing but it already made us feel different emotions. It's good that people are becoming more aware of different mental health issues and the triggers that can be associated with it. Thank you, It's Okay To Not Be Okay :)Music, animations, acting 100% Seo Yeji's voice? 101%!!
PS. I just hope TVN or Netflix will add trigger warnings. The content can be disturbing to some. Trigger warnings would really help.
UPDATE: IT WILL END SOON AND I DONT KNOW WHAT TO FEEL ?? THE EMOTIONS ARE SO REAL I WANNA HUG THEM :(((
UPDATE: OH JUNG SE FOR BEST ACTOR PLS!!! He really did touch our hearts. I really love his character and how he portrayed it :((( ILY Sang-tae oppa!

100% RECOMMENDED HP CASTS, DIRECTOR, WRITER, AND STAFFS U DA BOMB
Everything in this drama is just so perfect. It gives you the warm feeling while watching it. It made me smile, laugh, cry, and get hungry the whole season. As a med student myself, this drama is very realistic and it really tackles about what people go through within the walls of a hospital. I'M SURE ALL OF YOU WILL LOVE IT!Story - 10/10
You would think that the story might be boring at first since they really need to introduce a big cast, but if you continue, you'll realize how good the plot and progression of the story goes. This slice of life drama really lets people realize how important friendship is. They have their own lives and their problems but they were always there for each other. The cases of the patient were also realistic and we can see here that the story was not exaggerated. Just like the other works of Shin PD, we really can't predict anything.
THEY ALSO HAVE THE BEST SEASON FINALE! I wasn't disappointed with how the story went. The finale was really worth the wait, I wanna cry I'm so happy. Shin PD and Writer Lee, good job!!
Acting/Cast - 10/10
The cast is perfect. I love all of them. They acted so sincerely and we can really see how much effort they put into their roles. They trained very hard for this. Every emotion shown here will really make the viewers feel like they're in the same shoes. Whether you are in the field of medicine or not, you'll feel their struggles. We all experience these things one way or another. Even the kids in these drama acted so well. Shout out to U-ju, gyeopta!
Music - 10/10
The title says it all! I love their band and their songs so much. It really feels good to listen to their songs especially the covers they make. I saw how much effort they put into practicing the songs which makes it feel more special.
Rewatch Value - 10/10
Most people say that the rewatch value is low BUT IT'S ALSO A 10/10 FOR ME! Just the fact that there are meanings in the small details in the drama makes me want to rewatch everything. The cliffhangers and the clues given also make my mind go crazy. I also love rewatching their band practices. Season 2 will air on 2021 so we have a year to rewatch the episodes, the interviews and the relay cams. I'll rewatch their scenes whenever I'll miss them. Ugh I can't wait for the next season!!
Watch this!! 100% recommended <3
Shout out to Yoo Yeon Seok!!! I love you oppa! I hope more people will come to appreciate you.

ONE OF THE BEST CRIME-THRILLER DRAMAS
This is one of the best crime-thriller dramas I've watched. I was always amazed with how every episode was made. The gradual reveal of the truths kept me excited the whole time. All the actors and actresses were so good!! I really felt their emotions especially Lee Seunggi and Lee Hee Jun. This needs more appreciation!If you're looking for a psychopath/crime thriller series, this one's for you! Just prepare your mind and your heart. Everything went by quickly with just 20 episodes.
100% will rewatch. I think there are some clues I missed while watching before and I'd like to see them clearly now :)

THE REVENGE DRAMA WE BADLY NEED. A MUST WATCH!
This is not your typical revenge-themed drama. I really liked how they introduced the characters in the first episode then their works in the next ones. This drama tackles social issues that are relevant to us today. The revenge concept is really unique and the prosecutors balance what the taxi company does. The actors are all good especially Lee Je-hoon. He nailed every "role" so far and I fell more for him. He also did the action scenes himself (talk about dedication and talent <3). The plot and the series itself gets more and more interesting. I hope more people would recognize this gem.It's still ongoing but I made this review for those who are still unsure whether they should start watching Taxi Driver or not. The answer is: WATCH THIS KDRAMA NOW!!

A MUST-WATCH MYSTERY DRAMA
This drama is so underrated! I know a lot of people didn't like it because of how different it is from their expectations. But that was what I loved about this. Everything was so unpredictable! It was filled with questions the whole time and when we thought we already know the answer, they suddenly burst the bubble. Ta-da you're wrong! I love the mystery and suspense. It was really focused on Yeo Joo's character and it's okay with me. They focused on what women can do and the strength women possess.Honestly, I only watched it at first for youngdae. But as I watched the first few episodes, I got hooked with the story. Even their acting was so perfect. From extras to supporting to lead actors, I felt everything. It didn't feel fake at all.
So yes, please don't sleep on this drama! This deserves to be praised and watched! Give it a try guys :)

GOOD FOR THE HEART
AAAAAHHH I LOVE THIS DRAMA SO MUCH! I got hooked quickly. I loved the chemistry of the two leads. Ugh words can't even express how happy I am with this series. I was hesitant at first because politics is tiring. But no!!! This drama is different! I also love how women are empowered in this series. Goo Se Ra (female lead) is the real example of strong independent woman. Gong Myung also shines in his own. They shine together without dimming each other's light. I love how they help a lot of people and how they give importance to the underserved. The story doesn't contain much plot twists but it really got me wanting to watch more. My jaw and facial muscles are tired from smiling. I just smiled for 3 straight eps can you imagine that. Ugh. They're so cute, I can feel how comfortable they are with each other. I hope the next episodes are as good as the recent eps (or even better). I have no complaints!Ily Gong Myung (added to my crush list already hehe) and Se Ra (you're my girl crush ever since). Aaahhhh watch this!!! Don't miss out on this!

Watch this if you are interested in business and slice of life dramas! The pilot ep really touched my heart. It gave a glimpse of how they live their lives and how they became who they are now.
I love the OSTs, actors, and the story. I just hope I won't be disappointed with the next episodes because it looks predictable.
