Daily Dose of Sunshine

First "Tomorrow" and now this? The korean writers are showering us with shows about important topics. Daily dose of sunshine is all about something that is soooo damn stigmatized everywhere in the world, but yet so many people suffer with it... I'm talking about mental illness. So many people are suffering in silence, in fear of being judged, and shunned from society.

I don't have anything bad to say about this show... The story line is brilliant, the actors are amazing, the chemistry between the couples is good.

We really, really need more shows with the purpose of normalizing and accepting mental illness as real illnesses! Sadly there is still to this day sooo much misinformation and prejudices about mental illness. For me, who struggles with life myself, this show was very comforting. Now that I've watched all the episodes, I want more.. they can easily make a few more seasons of this show without destroying it.

I my self suffer from anxiety depression and know that it's something you live with you entire life. This show was so well written and accurate on the mental health system. Such good acting to, good choice on actors/actresses. I highly recommend watching this show, but to also be prepared for some hard to watch content and a lot of emotion. I cried though the whole second and third part of this series, both sad and happy tears. This will go on my list as one of the best shows this year. I hope it will be getting some prises because it deserves it. So we'll made and though through. It has an beginning and an end that is satisfying in every way.

I have such a tremendous range of emotions watching this series. Honestly, there was times that it caused me so much personal disquietude that I thought about stopping the self inflicted torture. However, at the same time I recognized the issues being raised in this series are very important and very much a part of so many lives. There was times I was happy, times I was so sad, and times I cried. Regarding the panic attacks, I could identify to a much less severe extent. When my Korean immigrant wife was dying with dementia I too experienced for the first time those emotions as I struggled with how I was going to care for my wife knowing that there is no happy ending and what I could only imagine lay ahead for both of us. Honestly, what was my way through that period was our relationship with Jesus. We also learned that God has it all under control in His way and time. Nonetheless, this series brought up feelings and a past that I really didn't want to remember. But life isn't all rose petals and happy endings. Truly it is how we get through it all. Kudos to all the wonderful actresses and actors and all who make it happen behind the scene. Since I'm a guy I wanted to especially note three actresses. First, and the compelling reason for writing this review is Park Bo-young once again stellar role, but most importantly I am absolutely captivated by her lovely "half-moon" beautiful eyes. Her cheery character carried me through the tough episodes. Secondly, I fell in love with. Lee E Dam...gawd now she is "my type" as is commonly noted in Kseries. And lastly a hats off to Lee Jung eun who role both as the head nurse and dealing with her sisters issues did an outstanding job.

I was on the fence on whether to watch this show or not. I've seen enough hospital dramas and figured this show would be filled with similar cliches that we've all seen dozens of times. I gave it a go and I'm glad I did. It is a medical drama set in a psychiatric ward and the main storyline focuses on the nurses (and doctors to a lesser degree) who work in that ward. There are 12 episodes in total and I did not, actually could not, binge all of them at once. The main reason for not binging was some episodes made me stop and think about what I'd just seen. The show compelled me to review and rethink about mental health.

The show is filled with cliches. Some of the scenes, I can anticipate exactly what would happen and what would be said by which character. There are scenes where conversation between the characters is highly unnatural and is there simply to provide background information. There are some plot holes as well. Despite these factors, the show was entertaining and interesting enough to make me want more and more. Some random acts of kindness that pop out of nowhere, words that seem meaningless that leave a lasting impression.

I surprisingly found the show to be quite immersive, and I also found that immersive experience was almost therapeutic, as I laughed and cried together with the characters. I would highly recommend this show.

People around me said that I care about others too much and they mean in a negative way, and i even read a post said that if you live with and care too much to a depressed person then you will be affect by them, about your mental and your physical health too. But just like Da-eun, she's a kind of person who caring, asking, do all the things thst she can do for you, a good person of course. She went through a lot but she didn't even regret it, me too, i will still choose to do the same thing even it affected me. Each episode, each disease, eaxh way to cry. I'm a person who cries easily, so that i cry like almost every episodes.

IT A GOOD SERIES GUYS 😭
