Not bad but not good either

It's okay that's lovel 2014 drama is based on mental health issues which depicts mental health illness very realistically but it fails to show the recovery/treatment properly obviously except for the ml's Compare to that everything else seems pretty lackluster.

Things i didn't like:
1... The first few episodes were pretty hard to watch and the banter btwn ml\fl appeared forced to me.
2....fl overcome her trauma of 30 years overnight.She didn't sleep with her ex even though they for almost a year but within a week she was able to do that with the ml OUTSIDE?
3.....fl is a psychiatrist but she is taking "insight" from the ml to treat her patients as if she is a quake doctor and ml knows everything frickin sh!t better than the actual psychiatrists.this drama displays most of the female partners always less than\lacking\ not perfect than their male partners.
4.....didnt like the camera work that much as they would zoomed on the face too much. I personally don't like that.
5..... the older brother never asked for forgiveness. Like ml his brother and their mother all need to have an emotional scene, you can't just shove it under the rug and think that there's no conflict left btwn the bros.older brother literally assaulted him in every scenes he needs to apologize and also deserves a apology.
6.... Fl's mother is just shameless and full of audacity. But even though she is unapologetic to her husband and her daughters. I wouldn't complain about it if it was shown that she at least felt bad while cheating on her paralyzed husband.Makes one wonder where the fl got her annoying personality.
7..... The dialogues and bad most for the soo kwang&so nyeo(teenage-adult) couple. Why they show this couple in the first place.it was uncomfortable to watch them together.
8... This cursed drama has 16th episode break up, scene. And it was a rushed ending.

Things liked:

1.. the hospital patients scenes and their realistic presentation.
2. Ml's story line is very solid and well written Even though he was kinda annoying, forceful and toxic but so was the fl but she deserved better storyline. That's why everyone says they didn't like the fl. I honestly couldn't connect to any of the characters and it's really sad i had high expectations from the drama because everyone praises it so much but it's such a shame that i couldn't like it whole heartedly.
3.is there anything else to like?i can't remember.ah. the acting is pretty good liked most of their acting and casting was good.
4.this drama tried to very different and controversial but watching it in 2024 didn't make much of an impact on me as it would if i had watched it in 2014. So i think this drama couldn't transcend Time and obviously a product of it's time.
Nevertheless it was a good watch and learned many things.
