I initially gave this drama a 2/5 rating due to the cancer storyline and the annoying ex. However, after completing Episodes 9 & 10, I've revised my rating to 4/5 stars.
The cancer storyline was challenging, but the characters' resilience and the portrayal of emotional support were commendable. While I still have reservations about the abrupt recovery, the overall handling was sensitive and impactful.
The ex's role was bittersweet. His unwavering support during her illness was admirable, but it's understandable that both parties experienced emotional strain. The saying "Fated to meet but not destined to be together" resonates with their relationship.
I'm concerned about the potential for a rushed romance between SH and SR. Given SR's recent experiences, a more gradual exploration of their feelings would feel more authentic. A time skip could provide an opportunity for healing and growth before diving into a new relationship.
Overall, the drama was well-executed, with strong performances and a compelling storyline. I appreciate the focus on mental health and the challenges faced by those dealing with illness and loss.
