But let me tell you, despite all the low rating and bashing about how boring this drama could be, I found this story is very heartwarming. Yes it is slow but i love it the way it is because it describes all the emotions so well, slow but steady.
Both the main leads have a good chemistry and convey their emotions very well, and all the supporting characters adding this story a beautiful garnish.
The OST is really compatible with each scene and makes us drawn into it more.
Fall in love with Jung Hae In all over again with his presence :) I just love him they way he is, calm and quiet. This role really suits his personality too.
If you are looking for a drama to make your heart warms, and or take a break from all the serious and fast-paced drama, then this is the one for you.

I'm not sure why this has lower view rating but if you are not fond of HEART WARMING, SLICE OF LIFE, SLOW-PACE ROMANCE, I SUGGEST DO NOT EXPECT MUCH AND DO NOT WHINE ABOUT HOW IT DOES NOT MEET YOUR USUAL ROMCOM EXPECTATIONS.
(This is not a comedy after all)
As for me, I liked it through and through. It is an unexpected gem.

Excessively sentimental & strongly emotional ❤️
If anyone ever mentions of melodrama, A Piece of Mind is it.I was in dire need of something that is excessively sentimental and strongly emotional and A Piece of Mind gave what I needed. It is beautifully written and executed. It is perfectly narrated and conveyed. The pace of the drama is enjoyable, it makes you stop and think, it does not aggravate, it just delivers the storyline, in a way that you would definitely fall in love with. At the beginning of the drama, you might feel that there is certain loopholes, but as the story unfolds, it will lure you to a dreamland. And you will feel something like ‘oouhh no wonder he said that. And no wonder she did that’
At first, I was sceptical with the plot that involves and AI tech, but this drama naturally meddle that to everyday life. It blends so well with the characters and nothing seems forced or illogical by sense.
It is sweet, slow, it takes its time and it is delicate. It serves my hopeless romantic ass real good ❤️
This has to be one of the most notable screenplay of Jung Hae In (who plays Moon Ha Won, the main role in this drama) the more I think about it, the more it appears to me that he really does a great job with his role. He makes you ponder and at the end of the drama, he makes you feel liberated, but peacefully.
If you are looking for a drama that would make you smile, cry and at some point, burst out of your happiness (cringiness hehe) then please watch this.
Melodramatic. Yeap it is :)

A Piece of Your Mind: A Gentle Symphony of Love, Loss, and AI
First things first, can we take a moment to appreciate Jung Hae-in? This guy is seriously becoming the king of soft, thoughtful male leads, and I am here for it! In this drama, he plays Moon Ha-won, a brilliant AI programmer with a heart of gold and a past full of unrequited love. Watching him navigate his emotions while trying to create an AI that understands human feelings? Pure poetry, I tell you!And then we have Chae Soo-bin as Han Seo-woo, a classical music recording engineer with her own share of emotional baggage. Her character is like a breath of fresh air – quirky, resilient, and so relatable. The way she slowly brings Ha-won out of his shell had me cheering from my couch!
Now, let's talk about the pace. If you're looking for high-octane drama and plot twists every five minutes, this might not be your cup of tea. But if you're in the mood for a slow-burn romance that feels like a warm hug on a cold day, buckle up! The show takes its time to develop the characters and their relationships, and trust me, it's worth every minute.
One thing that really stood out to me was how the drama weaves together themes of artificial intelligence, music, and human emotions. It's like a beautiful symphony where each element plays its part to create something truly magical. The way they use classical music to underscore emotional moments? Chef's kiss
But what really got me was the exploration of grief, healing, and the power of human connection. Without giving too much away, there's a storyline involving a character's lost love that had me reaching for the tissues. It's handled with such care and sensitivity that you can't help but be moved. And let me tell you, even if I watch it for the nth time, I'm gonna cry. Every. Single. Time. It's that powerful and touching!
The cinematography deserves a special shout-out too. Every frame looks like a piece of art, from the cozy interiors to the stunning Norwegian landscapes. I swear, I spent half the show googling flights to Norway!
Is it perfect? Well, no drama is. Sometimes the AI concepts can get a bit confusing, and if you're not into slow-paced, introspective shows, you might find yourself checking your watch. But for me, these are tiny blips in what is otherwise a beautiful, thoughtful exploration of love and healing.
So, if you're in the mood for a drama that'll make you think, feel, and maybe look at the world a little differently, give "A Piece of Your Mind" a shot. It's like a warm cup of tea for your soul – comforting, soothing, and leaves you feeling just a little bit better about the world.

A Piece of Your Mind has A Piece of My Heart
I just finished another rewatch and thought to leave a very short review for this gem.I love this drama so much.
While watching it gives me a very warm feeling. The relationship of Ha Won and Seo Woo is what I imagine an ideal relationship is like. A relationship of mutual longing, respect and reciprocation.
Some might call it slow, but for me that is how it's meant to be, a story driven by characters rather than plot. The atmospheric directing and very good music alongside that help to elevate my watching experience.
Too bad the 4 episodes were cut and always left us wondering of what could have been. But that was what it was, and as it is, the drama is perfect for me.

The best K-Drama I have ever seen.
This story healing me. "A piece of your mind" is a very slow-paced drama - with slow plot, slow visuals and slow background music. It's perfect for watching quietly at a table after a busy day, enjoying peace of mind and fully immersing yourself in the drama and experiencing the characters' emotions.I appreciate that Spotify recommended OST to me, which let me to know about this underrated masterpiece. This is the best K-Drama I have ever seen, hope everyone can enjoy in it!!
For Chinese Users:
這個故事治癒了我。 《一半的一半》整部劇節奏非常慢，情節慢、畫面慢，配樂也很慢，很適合在結束了繁忙一天後，靜下心來觀看，享受平靜，體會角色的情感。
感謝Spotify推薦了OST給我，我才認識了這部被低估的佳作。這是我個人認為最好看的韓劇，希望大家都能喜歡！

My favourite drama
A piece of your mind ist my all time favorite drama. In one word i would describe it as calm. When wathing it really helps me to feel comfortable and relaxed.The one hour episodes do really feel like they're one hour long but thats probably the reason i feel this way. Both of the actors are perfect for this role and it all just feels natural. The soundtrackis also beautiful. I'veactuallyhave one song in my playlist and i also learnedit on the piano.I'm usually a person that rewatches dramas too many times but with this one i don't want to rewatch it because it just really is so special.

Mixed thoughts
"A Piece of Your Mind" is a serene, composed, and emotionally charged drama. Initially, I struggled to grasp the storyline, but out of admiration for the leads, I persevered. As the plot unraveled, it revealed the bond between two childhood friends who grew up together in Norway, sharing their entire journey from childhood to adulthood. Despite their mutual love, a rift caused the boy to leave Norway. In his absence, a new person entered the girl's life, becoming her boyfriend. When they reunited, the boy became possessive, leading to their ( childhood friends) separation. The boy, an AI engineer, created a device capable of storing and replicating voices, aiming to provide solace to those who have lost loved ones. His motive was to preserve his girlfriend's voice and memories, allowing him to communicate with her. He enlisted the help of the female lead to record his girlfriend's voice and experiences, similar to Siri. However, I found it perplexing why his girlfriend didn't confide in the female lead about her predicament. She went to Norway alone for piece of her mind and she stuck in a snow .Despite having the opportunity to seek help from the Norwegian police, she chose not to, ultimately leading to her demise while conversing with the female lead. This aspect of the storyline was difficult to comprehend. Nonetheless, the drama excelled in other aspects, with minimal romance but a captivating plot overall.Was this review helpful to you?
This was a brilliant drama that gives its viewers a refreshing, slow paced healing session that goes through methods of grieving and caring for one another. No clichés with the love story. The lost first love is a wonderful human being who only wants to help those around her. Our two main leads, Ha Won and Seo Woo, are both struggling with loss and through the use of love and an AI box, they are allowed to work through it and all the struggles that follow. But I think the second set of leads are just as excellently done. Kang In Wook, the husband of Ji Soo, is also in terrible pain, not only after the events of the opening episodes (no spoilers) but his past that links with Ha Won. He can come off as our antagonist, at first, with his attitude and actions but he learns to open up and be free thanks to Soon Ho and his music. And if that wasn't deep enough, there is a very good side plot involving the smaller roles in a Boarding House that Seo Woo lives in. The story is very rich and well developed in all facets except maybe a few technical capabilities (but we’ll ignore those because it’s television). The use of classical music was both melancholy and soothing at the same time. Ditto the soundtrack as well.
The acting of course matches the drama story and writing; just incredible. Jung Hae In is perfect for this role and he knocks another drama out of the park with his terrific acting. An incredible smart young man who is polite but holding a tragic past and an unrequited love interest is a tough role to partake in. So many emotions need to be done in the minute ways. It’s a true nuanced performance that is complimented by a similar character played by Chae Soo Bin.
I would agree with the sentiments that this has a very dream-like feel to it. It’s hard to even say what I felt like watching this drama. I was hooked but I had this intangible feeling. It’s nice.

It ‘s ten from me folks ✨
here’s my incoherent attempt at a reviewI absolutely loved the overall vibe of this drama for me it’s unparalleled. The scenes felt so comforting and nostalgic for some reason.
Personally i love the way seoul nights were portrayed in this drama - the quiet mellow romantic side of seoul. The empty uphill alleys illuminated by street lamps just feel so beautiful to me .
And the traditional style house with the bug windows where you can watch the snow fall with your love JUST SO COMFORTING i want taht for me so bad.
I personally enjoy story lines with unrequited love and moving on from it rather than getting them to lovw u back so this aspect was also heartbreakingly perfect for me.
This drama has it flaws but if your looking for a comforting mellow drama give it a try.
( this drama made me fall in love with jung hae in lowkey sad hes not doing melodramas no more 😭😭 but hes so hot in action deamas so cant complain))
