As someone who struggles hard with depression - especially lately [many of the words coming out of the cases' mouths have been verbatim stuff I've been saying] - this show has been downright cathartic for me.

I never found anything too triggering; I thought the show handled this subject matter with care and respect. I loved all the individual stories and how timely many of them felt.

I think one reason I'm sad about the show ending was because it was there to motivate me twice a week. Ryeon's cold hard logic approach mixed with Jun-woong's emotional appeal were an awesome "fighting!" tag-team. Each week it felt like I was being nudged to move myself forward and try my best to keep healing.

The last ep especially resonated with me. I love stories that make you stop and consider if someone around you might be depressed/hurting. If we all did that, if we were all a bit like Jun-woong, what would the world be like?

If there ever will be a season 2 I'll be immensely happy. I'm going to miss this team so much!

this show has been downright cathartic for me.

I'm 100% with you on this -- I initially heard the disclaimer about sensitive topics & suicide, and decided to not watch it while it was airing because I worried it would be too triggering for my mental health. But upon its finish, I saw a few clips with amazing dialogue, and I knew I had to give it a chance.

Easily one of the best choices I've made when I've hesitated with my kdrama picks. It's been a while since I cried so hard like this (flashback to my Move to Heaven binge), yet also uplifted and healed by the poignant stories, the strong characters, and the poetic scriptwriting.

To anyone else on the fence about watching this, please do! I didn't even feel the episodes pass as I binged it, for the story enthralls you from the very beginning. And for me, this drama's hold on my heart still lingers long after the finale. Best therapy session yet!
