This show is slow paced and we sure can see that since the first episode. If we decide to keep watching, we already know what we're getting into... right?

I thought I did. I really like slow paced shows because they usually really warm my heart and they tend to be somewhat deep so I didn't even hesitate to keep watching 'A Piece of Your Mind'. I loved the acting and how the story was developing through the first few episodes, but then I started getting easily bored. Reason? There's a situation (I won't say which one to avoid spoilers) that happens at the beginning (really, at episode 2 I think) and leads to something else, and once everything seems to be over it just KEEPS APPEARING in every episode.

This drama is about healing and I understand that there has to be a recurring situation for the leads to get over, but was it really neccessary to keep bringing what happened every episode? At this point and I thought about dropping the drama, however, I was already 8 episodes in and I though I might as well finish it.

Let's talk about some of the characters. Kim Sung Gyu is an AMAZING actor, but his character, In Wook, was... dull. At the beginning it was okay, really, I liked his character and I was willing to see how he would develop. The thing is, he didn't. Again, I understand this is mainly about healing, but he didn't even make a small change until the very end.

Lee Ha Na's character, Soon Ho, was more or less the same. She didn't change, not even a little, in the whole drama. I feel like her character was put there just to twist thing up a little at almost the end of the show so it could continue for some more episodes. She really didn't add up anything to the show, she was plain and dull. We got to see a little of her personality, which was based on some ''traumatic'' experience that wasn't traumatic at all; still, no need to be a nosy ass (just like Seo Woo, if I'm allowed to say). I really didn't enjoy their characters at all, especially Lee Ha Na's

Chae Soo Bin did a really good job portraying such a nosy character (as you can see, it's already the second time I use this word to describe a character). Seo Woo was even nosier than Soon Ho, if she didn't get into someone's affairs, she wouldn't be happy. And then, when she finally seemed to be a little happier and to have everything shorted out, she had to ruin everything again.

Jung Hae In's character, Ha Won, is the only one I don't have that many complains about; even though he obviously is the one who suffered the most. He didn't make stupid choices, he knew what he wanted and he didn't make a whole world over something. He was mature. It's possibly the only character I liked (apart from Eun Joo, Min Jung and Jin Soo).

Was it that bad of a drama? The answer is no. Would I watch it again? The answer is still no. I struggled to finish it, I just wanted to finish 'A Piece of Your Mind' as soon as possible and I didn't really enjoy it at all. The problem isn't its pace since like I said before, I usually enjoy slow dramas. The problem here is that this is so badly written it's almost impossible to have a great time watching it.

I'm speechless.

Really, I am. I have had this movie in my plan-to-watch list for over a year and for some reason I never gave it a chance, but thank God, yesterday I did.

The plot is heartbreaking, really, really heartbreaking. As a person who suffered bullying myself, I can say it was really well portrayed, harsh and raw. Chen Nian asked for help; a lot of victims of bullying ask for help, not like they portray in almost every movie/serie bullying related.

The movie was really well done, really well filmed, and the acting... God, the acting. Especially from Zhou Dong Yu, I was left staring at the screen and wondering how could someone portray emotions so well. When she cried I cried with her, when she laughed I laughed with her. The viewer definitely feels empathy for both of the characters and we can see both of them are flawed, not perfect at all, which is also very realistic.

The relationship between both of the lead characters, oh my God, the chemistry! You could feel the love, how fond they were of each other. Kisses and hugs, any form of skinship, it wasn't needed. Just by the look in their eyes, their interactions, you could tell. It was so beautiful, I mean it. So bittersweet, though):

If anything, I would've liked to see a little backstory of Chen Nian's mom. I would've liked to see her more on screen, too; her reactions to certain things, why was she behaving like she was, etc. Sure, we get a really tiny backstory, but I would've liked it to be more specific. Still, this wasn't really bothering anyways. Not even needed, I would say. It's just that I'm curious, hahaha.

In conclusion, if you're hesitating to watch this or not: do it. It's raw, sometimes really hard to watch, but it's definitely worth it. It helps bring awareness on bullying in a really realistic way, and I think it's a must watch for everyone who may be interested. Also, the story is really interesting and nice. You won't regret watching, I promise.

Okay so I've mixed feelings about this one. I'm going to be totally honest even though I really want to just tell you how extraordinary it is. It's realistic, let's begin with that. It's not a romance, though. Then what is it? I'd say it's life. That simple.

''My Mister'' would probably be tagged as slow-paced, but I think it's more than that. Even if it's true that its pace isn't the fastest, things happen when they're bound to happen. They are not forced and that's really appreciated.
When I first started watching this drama I have to say I didn't like it that much. I thought, ''what's so extraordinary about watching some people just living?'' and I just dropped it. Months later I just couldn't stop thinking about restarting it; those people lifes had stuck with me for a long time telling me to keep watching, to see what happens next, and I did. Best decision in my life.

This drama is harsh. It portraits reality in such a beautiful but heart-breaking way it may blow your mind. I cried when it ended because every character was a part of me by then. How would I fill that empty space now? I simply didn't. Not a single drama has made me feel this way about their characters since I've finished it, and I have to say I've watched quite many. The atmosphere, the cinematography which isn't that marvelous but definitely felt like it was, the acting, the OST, the personal scenes of every character... everything together makes this drama what it is: a masterpiece. I'd never been so happy to watch something 'till the end and I've never missed a show this much ever.

Every character has its importance. All three brothers have really different lifes but they compliment each other so well. They are the best definition of brothers I have ever seen: together 'till the end even if they're all facing different struggles, fixing one another silently while drinking at Jung Hee's bar after work. Their acting is extremely good, too. You can see their pain even in their brightest moments. Differently from other dramas you don't need a sad background song to feel the pain; their eyes alone are enough. About IU's acting, some may differ, but she owned the role from the 1st second. Unlike what it may seem, portraying Ji An's character, a cold yet warm character who is constanly hurting and enduring, is a really hard work. Ji An is silent so IU has to show her feelings without words, only with body language and her eyes, and you can feel it. Ahjussi will always be Lee Sun Kyun. He owned this role, too. I just can't visualize anyone else.

I have to go back to the thing I enjoyed the most and which I can't speak enough of: its realness. ''My Ahjussi'' teached me a lot. While I was watching I wasn't feeling my best, and unlike what many people say, a happy and funny drama just wasn't what I was needing. I needed THIS and I'm so glad I found it. In the end, this drama teached me that no matter how hard life is, there's always hope; that you have to endure (Ahjussi) and hold on to what you have (Ji An's grandma); that happiness isn't something permanent (Sang Hoon) and that no matter how happy some people lifes may seem, you can't simply judge by what you see (Ki Hoon with Yoo Ra).

I'd just like to say this drama will stick to you forever. No matter how many dramas you watch, you'll never forget ''My Ahjussi'' and its characters. I could continue writing about without end but I guess you should go and start watching it now. I may go and re-watch it, too :)

I'm aware many people won't like this drama because it's slow, but it you don't mind slow paced dramas then you should definitely watch this one.

How do I express this feeling I have right now? I just finished the last episode and I know for sure I'm going to miss this drama a lot. The sceneries are so beautiful, the filming, everything! But if there's something even more beautiful that stands out, it's the story and how it's told.

For me, even though Hae Won and Eun Seob are tagged as the ''main leads'', every character in this drama are leads. You get to know their story, they grow in you in a way I'd never experienced before; even the old women that are always gossiping. It's just amazing.

There are scenes that made me cry of happiness. They just warm you up on the inside.
This drama... I just don't have words to explain what it has made me feel. It's deep, really deep, and I loved that; however, there are characters like Eun Soeb's sister (Im Hui) or Jang Wu that really lighten the mood a little bit and they're so funny and loveable!

If you're hesitating to watch this drama, just go and watch at least 2 episodes and then decide whether to watch it or not. I'd recommend 100%, but as I said in the beginning, if you don't usually like slow paced dramas this may not be for you. It being slow paced doesn't make it a bad drama, though, and I'd say it definitely deserves a try.

I'm speechless and still crying. This is by far the best zombie movie I've ever seen. No wonder it has so many 10 ratings... but I just can't give it a 10 even though I'd like to. The reasons are:

- So many things were left unexplained. For example, what happened after the outbreak? Did humanity in general managed to survive? How exactly was the virus caused (we only know WHO caused it)?
- I'd have liked to see the survivor's lifes years later. Surviving that kind of thing is obviously traumatic and I'd have liked to see how they kept living (if they did).
- Even though my eyes felt like they were glued to the screen (I just couldn't stop watching), I noticed some things that just don't make sense. I won't say which ones are because I want this to be a spoiler-free review, but if you watch you'll most probably find them.

Everything else in this movie is perfect. The zombies look real af, the reactions of the people trapped on the train, their feelings... everything is amazingly portrayed. I have nothing more to say than go watch 'Train to Busan' right now. You're missing one of the best action movies ever.

'The King: Eternal Monarch' had potential but wasn't properly developed. I' m giving this show a 6 stars rate because overall I enjoyed it, though; 2 episodes a week weren't hard to watch and they were entertaining enough. The cast was really nice and I really like Kim Go Eun's acting, but I have to say this isn't her best. That's probably because her character is so poorly written (just like every other one) it's just impossible to save it. At first I found myself rooting for her, she seemed really badass and able to look after herself. Didn't take long for her to switch into our typical demsel in distress, though. I don't know how many times we see her cry during the whole drama, but I'm sure it's a lot and I just couldn't stand it. Lee Min Ho's character is just the same as in every drama, or at least that's how it seemed to me. Always playing the saviour and being this perfect, humble, flawless king.
Kim Kyung Nam was great in his role, too. I hadn't seen much of him before and it was nice to do it here, but again, his character was just plain.
The only saveable characters are Woo Do Hwan's. Jo Yeong and Eun Seop lightened up this show, the acting was killing and the writers still tried to take that away from us giving him so little screen time. I'd have liked to see his background story alone and not only his story with the king, but obviously, there really isn't any space to delve into the characters and they just rushed everything, again.
The rest of the characters, like the villian, aren't worth mentioning. So poorly written, no background story, just there to make the ML look heroic and to the FL look dumb.

The real mess comes with the plot, tho. We can endure some badly written characters if the plot is good, right? But this wasn't the case. It had so much potential but it was just wasted. While I was finishing the drama I started feeling like the writer just didn't know how to finish this and tried to fool us with a lot of emotions (most of them didn't work). A lot of things stopped making sense, things that were shown to us in previous episodes that were intriguing just weren't brought up anymore in the whole drama and we were left staring at the screen like fools- wondering where they went.
This happens with a lot of things like the doppelgangers (Luna, especially), the travelling consequences and some characters I won't name to avoid spoilers.

The romance on this drama is just superior and not in a good way. Tae-eul seems to hate Lee Gon, but after he proves her his world exists she's deeply in love with him. The same goes for him, wanting to make her his queen the second they meet. Boy, you didn't even know if she actually existed a few minutes ago, calm down. The kisses are good and I somehow managed to see some chemistry between them, but it wasn't enough. It felt really rushed.

In conclusion, I was entertained with this drama because I only had to watch 2 episodes a week and they ended the episodes in a cliffhanger of questions that were never answered, so I feel pretty fooled. Still, I laughed a lot with Eun Seop and even shed some tears in the ending episodes. Didn't really get to feel empathy towards most characters, though, apart from Woo Do Hwan's and maybe a little for Lady Noh, ignoring the leads.

Give it a try, you may like it, but don't get your hopes really high because then you'll end up really disappointed.

I'm gonna be really honest with this review. For me a 6 stars rate is average. In my opinion the story started dragging way too much around ep 10 and I've really struggled to finish it since then, reason why I stopped following it while it was airing. It has really funny parts though, and it was nicely acted which is why I gave it 6 stars when in my opinion the storyline is 4 stars. I also took into account the fact that I really enjoyed the first episodes, but that didn't stop me from wanting to finish this drama as soon as possible.

I don't like dropping dramas, I always try to give them a second and even a third chance just in case it gets better. This being the reason why I finished this drama, I actually don't regret finishing it. It has some cute and funny scenes that are really appreciated at some point so it wasn't an useless watch. But be careful if you like cats! You'll probably fall in love with this cat; I did and I'm more of a dog person so... yeah. It's really cute (and I'm talking about the cat itself, not the guy haha)

The main point here is, ''Meow, the Secret Boy'' isn't the best drama out there, I'd actually say it's not a really good drama, but it's nice to kill some time (which is the main focus of dramas, right?) and it's gonna make you laugh so I'd say if you want to watch this, give it a chance. It may not have been that good for me, but you may love it!

For me, Hotel del Luna really moved me. It got inside my heart, it went straight to my feelings.

The cinematography in this drama is just marvelous, the cast is perfect and the soundtrack is really beautiful and it's played in the right moments, letting you feel every emotion when it's needed. The flashbacks in this drama are so beautifully made, too, they did an amazing job transporting you to the character's memories.

This is THE drama. It's THAT drama you won't ever forget, and personally I will definitely watch it again someday whenever I feel like I can listen to it's OST again without crying, lol.

Let me say the characters are unique. Even though the most developed character is Man Wol (since she's the main character) we get to see a little about every other people staying and working in Hotel Del Luna and their stories are unique too. The plot is really different from what we've seen related to ghosts and I really appreciated that, since every episode you'll learn something new about Hotel Del Luna and its guests, and how the world of the dead works. This is a really interesting drama and deserves a watch.

4.5 is not the lower this drama could go. Honestly, if it wasn't for the acting I would have given it even less stars. 'Memorist' is a whole mess and it surely is overrated, at least from my point of view.

I won't write a long review for this one even though I have a lot to say mainly because just remembering what a hard time I had watching the episodes makes me want to finish as soon as possible. As you can see, I dropped 'Memorist' and I have good reasons.

I thought a lot about finishing it, since it was airing it wouldn't be hard to watch two episodes a week, right? But I just couldn't bring myself to do it. I don't watch dramas as a duty but as a pleasure and this wasn't enjoyable at all. The episodes seemed to last three hours when they were only an hour long, the female lead was so annoying that I almost always wanted to punch her in the face, and the characters in general weren't developed at all; I can say this sure enough because I endured to watch 8 episodes of this mess only to be able to tell. When did we get to know the characters? We didn't. It was all about crimes and even they were badly written and didn't make sense.
The leads were so plain I don't know how I could watch them go around for 8 hours. I don't usually watch crime dramas but when I do I surely enjoy them, and this wasn't the case. For a drama to be compelling there has to be more than just one element to focus on, just like we get some crimes/tragedies while watching a romance-focused drama. This drama doesn't have anything other than crimes and corruption everywhere. I'm out.

Where should I begin? I have been off the internet for a while and that also gave me time to think clearly about this drama. Still, I couldn't help but give it a 10.
'It's Okay to Not Be Okay' is, indeed, the drama of the year for me along with Hospital Playlist and Extracurricular. I have to say, I haven't watched all the 2020 dramas so keep that in mind. But yeah.
I want to talk about why I gave the story a 9/10 first: yes, the plot was interesting af and it's really addicting... but. There has to be a but, right? It is indeed true that there were some lacking things? I won't actually mention them to avoid spoilers, but yes, there were certain parts on the episodes that left me kinda 'empty', not filled up enough. Still, the drama is indeed about healing and it deals with that on a really realistic way. The fact that healing also includes Sang Tae, who is a character with autism, is also something that adds up a lot to the plot. We get to see things from his point of view too, which is super interesting.

The acting is marvelous. To be honest, the acting that impressed me the most wasn't Kim Soo Hyun's or Seo Ye Ji's but Oh Jung Se. Portraying an autistic person is really hard and he did it so good... he made it look so effortless, so natural. And yes, there were parts where Seo Ye Ji's acting also shocked me, as well as Kim Soo Hyun's, but long-term it was Oh Jung Se's, everything be said.

Ko Mun Yeong (Seo Ye Ji) is a book writer. Well, for children. On some episodes we get to 'read' her books along with different characters and I found this really amazing! The books were so good, always leaving a deep message behind, and the illustrations that came with it really impressed me for good.

The OST is one of my favorites along with Hotel Del Luna's and Goblin's. I was always waiting for a new track to drop. Especially the english ones, I just loved them. I kept the OST on repeat for weeks and sometimes I still do.

Overall, the drama in general is different than what we're used to. With a role-reversal that actually worked AND not changing throughout the episodes, it makes you feel what the characters are feeling and is addicting af. I loved Ko Mun Yeong, I lived for her scenes. Don't get me wrong, Gang Tae's scenes were also really interesting and I loved them, but Ko Mun Yeong just had something. The chemistry was AMAZING and their kisses... oh well. You'll have to see yourself.

I recommend this 10/10. It's something really different and the plot is interesting, the acting is perfect as well as the OST and it leaves you wanting more after every episode. Weekends were the best days of the week while it was airing, I swear, you won't regret it.

This review is probably going to be a mess, be aware, but I'm gonna throw my most honest feelings about this drama in here.
Let's begin with the story. True to its name, 'Time' is a dark, sad criminal drama. It took me a while to get hooked, but I did. To be honest, if it wasn't because of Soo Ho's (Kim Jung Hyun) condition and limited time to live, this drama would've just been another criminal drama about rich people abusing their power and forgetting how to be a decent person; however, after Soo Ho discovers he's sick, we are given the first lesson of the many in this drama: no one lives forever, no matter how rich you are, you'll die. That stuck with me throughout the whole drama and will continue to do so forever, because I never gave it a thought before and even if I did, I never got to actually see it.
The plot begins to twist after Ji Hyun's sister, Ji Eun, dies. Of course, something has to be the catalyst and I was okay with it, but things started happening really fast. For me, Ji Eun's death was enough to develop the whole plot and there was no need to make the female lead suffer more, but they still did; probably because they wanted us to feel for the poor Ji Hyun even more, but it still seemed forced and rushed.

The characters are another story. The emotions are portrayed really nicely, especially the first episodes, but only with the two leads. We don't really get to see the personality of the secondary characters and they feel pretty much like filler. There are characters that I just can't understand why they even exist. Of course, this is forgiveable and the show still managed to get me on my feels, but I felt like I was missing so much, so many backstories...
The acting was still amazing, especially from Kim Jung Hyun. I cried and felt so much with him, I felt his pain and his guilt, and that's something I didn't feel with any other characters, like Eun Chae Ah or Min Seok, until the lastest episodes. Seo Hyun was also really great, and her acting would really boost whenever she was on the screen with Jung Hyun. I got to empathize with her character, too (who wouldn't, poor girl), but at certain point her attitude seemed to change so drastically I didn't even notice. This made me mad, because it was only shown to us the ''new'' Ji Hyun and not how she was really feeling, but that's still forgiveable because, honestly, you understand her and it's not difficult to imagine how she was really feeling.

As many of you know, Kim Jung Hyun had to quit this drama sooner than expected due to his mental health, which meant his character, Soo Ho, would die sooner. Honestly, his death scene felt plain. I cried, I really did, but something was just off. It was really quick and out of nowhere, with no explanation but your guessing. This kind of threw me off because the drama was literally just about Soo Ho's remaining time and the crimes that Seol Ji Hyun had to solve, so his death was actually a really important scene and it wasn't developed well enough.
After this, the show became more of a mess. The directors failed immensely to drive the attention to our left-alone lead Ji Hyun and the criminal part of the plot had been dragged way too much. They managed to give it an average ending, but again, plain. We didn't get to see how the situation was affecting the rich characters except from Eun Chae Ah, we only got to see their non-changing greedy personality. Finishing the episode there was one thing left unexplained, which made it feel like there could be a second season; thank God there isn't, because the story just couldn't go any further.

Overall, I really (really) enjoyed 'Time' and the soundtrack, especially the instrumental pieces, is so beautiful. It is enjoyable enough and really emotional, kind of succeeds on making you feel attached to the characters (mainly Soo Ho) and gives really precious life lessons. Still, that doesn't change the fact that it was a little hard for me to watch (I dropped it twice) and that it could've been better. I wouldn't watch it twice, but it will stick with me for a while and I don't regret doing it. Would recommend, if you're patient and don't mind badly written secondary characters that much.

I'm going to be really honest with this review: I gave this show a 9,5 because there are some things I'd have liked to get an explanation to. Nevertheless, it really overcame my expectations. I had high ones because people were talking really good about this drama and I can tell you already that it's one of the best of the year, people are not lying.

I have to say, though, I'd have liked it better if the OST were more varied. I didn't really pay that much attention to it since the storyline really had me inmersed and hooked, though, so I'd say this isn't that big of a deal.

Overall the acting was amazing, the facial expressions were on point and the way it was filmed gave it a really different vibe from what we're used to, driving way more attention to body language and letting us discover ourselves what the character is feeling and/or thinking.

For me it has always been difficult to finish a lot of dramas after episode 8 more or less, I start to get easily bored and I just don't feel like watching anymore. I don't know if it's because this one is only 10 episodes, but it was so easy to watch... I was always wanting more at the end of the episodes and even now that I've finished the drama I'm still wanting more, so I really hope there will be a second season.

Last, but not least, this is a dark drama. I don't usually watch this genre but I did and I ABSOLUTELY loved it. I don't regret anything. 'Extracurricular' is not the typical crime drama we're used to. Netflix is a whole different story, they just care about getting the audience hooked and interested and I can assure you they do! The fact that our lead is directly involved with the crimes makes it a whole different experience, at least for me. I do have to say there's a lot of bloody scenes, so keep that in mind.

You don't always have to be bleeding for it to be an emergency.

A story about healing each other made kind of messy, but still works. I liked this drama since the 1st ep. aired and I will continue to do so forever. I, as a BPD patient myself, have felt this drama in a really personal way, so let me tell you what I think about it (honestly).

''Soul Mechanic'' is true to its name. It is such a heartwarming drama and it shows people the reality of mental illnesses.: they're no joke, they're real and no less than any other illness. In reality, people suffer and stuggle lot and they make sure to portray it perfectly through every different patient. Different illnesses, different obstacles, different healing. That's what I loved the most about this drama, it not only focuses on the leads but on every other supporting characters too.

The romance plays a little part of the story; I wouldn't say it's the main theme. Still, it's worth mentioning. I didn't see that many chemistry between leads, but it's enough to make it work. Their relationship is heartwarming and, at first, toxic, but they managed to make it work and I'm so happy it did. It's always nice to see that kind of development in a drama couple after seeing so many toxic ones.

The acting on this drama is amazing. The main male lead, Shin Ha Kyun, has such a friendly face and is perfect for the role he's playing, and the main female lead, Jung So Min, portrays a BPD patient really well and truthfully. It's not an easy one, keep that in mind, and what you'll see on this drama aren't ''exaggerations'' as many people may say. I'm telling you as a bpd patient myself, as I said before; bpd isn't an easy disorder. I've lost more than I've won. The anger issues are true and the attention seeking is too. So keep in mind, if you're gonna watch this, it's not too much. Is a struggle and this drama shows it rawly.

To end this review, as I don't want it to be endless, I'd like to say this drama isn't perfect. I've only stated the good parts of it because they make this drama pretty worthy of watching and I wouldn't want anyone to miss it, but it's true that some aspects of it (ex. Si Joon's way of treating his patients) may be controversial.
I also would like to encourage anyone with a mental illnes, whatever it is, to watch this drama. The message it gives it really encouraging and it made me feel a lot less alone in this world.

I finished this drama and I felt like I lost something and I couldn't find it. It's a sad story narrated in a beautiful way and sure, it'll get to your feelings and if you're like me you'll probably cry- a lot, but still, there's something missing. I think this should've been a longer drama; 6 episodes that last half an hour aren't enough to tell the story with detail, and that's exactly my problem with it.

We eot to know a little about the characters but, do we really get to know them in a personal way? I don't think so. We just see them fall in love (this ain't a spoiler) and how they handle it, we get to see a piece of their personality but not the rest of it, and that in the end is what makes me give it the rate I'm giving it.

For me a 7.5 rate is good, though. I really enjoyed this drama and I couldn't get my ass off my bed until I finished it. It drags you in and handles to keep you hooked. There are a lot of emotional scenes and that's what I liked the most. The acting is amazing and I have to say this is my favorite Lee Jong Suk performance by far. There is a scene (you'll recognize it) where his feelings seem to trespass the screen and go straight to your heart.

Overall, this is a really good and emotional drama. It could've been better, yes, but it's enough like it is. Definitely should give it a watch.

Don't you dare miss this.

It took me a while to start watching 'Hospital Playlist'. I didn't think I would like it this much and oh Lord, I was wrong.
Typical medical drama? Forget about that. This drama is a new way of seeing things. I wasn't expecting this at all. The comedy here is, omg, amazing! I laughed A LOT, especially with Ik Jun and Jun Wan. If you haven't watched this yet GO and do it NOW, or I'll make sure you do :)

Let me start a review the proper way now that I've made clear you should watch it, just in case you wanna know a little more.
The story develops amazingly since the first ep. At first, it may be a little hard to follow since they'll be introducing a lot of the cast, but it'll get easier. Still, it took me a while to learn all of their names (and now I can't get them out of my head). It's obviously a medical drama, but it's different from any other I have seen; they will form a band. I repeat, in case you didn't read well. They. Form. A. Band.
The band is one of the best things for me, but it may not be for everyone. However, you're free to skip the band scenes. In my opinion it's necessary for the drama. It's one of the things that make it different (and so good). I also discovered a lot of good music with them, so it's a plus.

If you ask me what I think is the main theme of this drama, I would say it isn't medicine but friendship. The reason I'm saying this? You'll discover it once you start watching (but it's not hard to guess, is it?). The medical parts are marvelously good, though, and they make sure to feed us well-written and emotional stories for each patient that we meet. I can't really say anything else without spoiling. There's obviously romance in this, but I wasn't expecting the 'couples' at all. Still, I screamed like a crazy b with them (cough, wintergarden couple, cough).

Overall I would say it's a drama that shows the daily life of a group of friends that just happen to work at the same place, but have different stories to tell. It's funny, not boring at all, knows how and when to make you cry, and also has a lot of heartwarming scenes (and couples). What more can you ask for?
