Korean Drama '' To My Hyeri '' is a psychological melodrama with a romantic story at its core.

The drama starts out pretty strong, with the leading lady killing it with her double personality performance.

The mystery was also intriguing and the melodrama fitted the story nicely.

And yet, everything went downhill halfway through. The drama changed course and emphasized more on the love story and less on its main character, which didn't fit the tone of the drama and made it generic.

Also, the pace was messy and the story felt random.

So, overall, five out of ten for Korean Drama '' Dear Hyeri''.

Women's organizations should consider taking legal action against this movie. As a long-time fan of K-drama, I can confidently say this is the worst one I've ever seen. After watching it, I'm not interested in exploring any more works from this writer. The plots and storylines are subpar, but what really struck me is the way women are portrayed; it feels belittling and dismissive.

I already wasted hours of my life watching this hot pile of mess. The writer should be banned for not healing women, but to please a man. Gross... so gross! TOXIC. So much potential thrown in the trash. My fav actress too. Ending up with the one that treats her like she's disposable.

This is the worst of the worst k-drama.

A drama with wasted potential and wasted actors, the first few episodes seemed very promising, a plot that deals with split personalities and childhood traumas, I thought I was going to see something like Hyde Jekyll, Me starring Hyun Bin or It's Okay Not to Be Okay, or Kill Me, Heal Me, which were excellent dramas. As the episodes progressed, the cruelty also arrived, the whole plot went wrong into one big mess, there is no focus in the plot, I love and appreciate the actress Shin Hye Sun very much, and here too she demonstrated her professional and versatile abilities, but her acting alone cannot hold up the messy plot. The music was mediocre and there was a lot of background noise bordering on annoying. All in all, a plot that had tremendous potential and somewhere along the way it was wasted, such a shame.

It is clear that the writers didn't research DID at all. The misrepresentation of DID can hurt the people trying to get treatment and support for their DID. I am disappointed that this happens in almost all portrayals of DID in entertainment media.

The codependent relationship between the FL and ML is portrayed as something to achieve in the pursuit of happiness. Clearly the writers are not qualified enough to handle the delicate matters concerning mental health.

The cast does superb job at acting. FL is able to convey complex emotions with such ease. Her acting range really shines through in this series, inspite of the material she is provided. The ML shows a bit stiffness in acting and was not enjoyable to watch. The cinematography was decent.

I am an enormous fan of actress Shim Hye Sun. I've watched her captivating performances in shows like *Mr. Queen*, *Welcome to Samdalri*, *Angel's Last Mission: Love*, and *Hymn of Death*. She has an incredible talent for embodying each character, drawing me into her world with stunning authenticity. Her ability to portray "long-term girlfriend" roles is truly impressive.

The series *Dear Hyeri* stands out for its creativity, with nearly every episode ending on a suspenseful cliffhanger that keeps you on your toes. At first, I was firmly in support of her long-term boyfriend, Jung Hyun Oh; however, as the story unfolded, I found myself overwhelmed by the undeniable chemistry between the second lead, Kang Joo Yeon. I was genuinely torn about who she would ultimately choose.

The emotional depth of this drama is extraordinary, leaving me both touched and heartbroken during certain scenes. One moment that particularly struck me was watching Kang Joo Yeon navigate his life alone, showcasing the painful reality of the second lead.

I can't wait to see what future roles Kang Joo yeon takes on. I absolutely loved this drama, and I urge everyone not to miss out on this hidden gem!
