First, i'm watching it solely because of Jung Hae In.

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.

Even though I only watched four episodes, I can confirm that it was enough to fall in love. The
first thing catch my attention is cinematography, The tones are soft, warm & welcoming. The second thing is plot, At start it was little confusing but it reveal itself slowly and gives you a feeling of curiosity. Coming to actors Jung Hae In's acting is so moving, he has the ability to make you see his feeling that you cannot help but fall for his character. Chae soo bin portraying her character beautifully. sound track is melancholy and overwhelming. This drama gives a feeling of warmness.
Cannot Wait to see new episodes ?♥️
It's definitely worth a watch...!!

TRUST ME DON'T DROP IT

When I first heard of this drama I was so excited because the ML are my favourite actors. I watch the first 2 episodes I also but to neck myself questioning why the narrative was so crap and confusing for these amazing actors. But I had to go on because their my fav actors. I read reviews to convince myself because many times I kept doubting why is this so shit such a shame... I disagree with other reviews saying they were saying how "people don't appreciate the slow narrative & cinematics" because excuse you I certainly do but I still wanted to neck myself.

I think personally it was just the ordering of the narrative if they started at a different point and moved it around they would have more viewers for sure!!! I do agree when people say "it's a filler" but I mean the filler was 2 eps too long they should have placed this as a flashback or something but not get rid of it so people can understand the cinematics and appreciation towards it section because it's a new style.

BUT DON'T drop it this drama is a work of art the music and aesthetics are AMAZING as you continue to watch the storyline of the characters and their behaviours become understandable and less creepy. This drama has approached a new style its like a romantic puzzle. I think with dramas it's important to make the first episode at a bit exciting tell a bit more of the narrative but it just wasn't for this drama you are given no context. That's why ratings didn't go well. But I'm IN LOVE guys so far :) it's definitely worth giving it a chance answers will come if ur confused!

Super Underrated.

This series is so heartwarming.. I just have a problem with the ending but overall this series is a treasure. Jeezzz I am not good with words but Mydramalist.com wanted me to write an essay.. Hey MDL I passed my degree not writing my essays.. Aigooo Okey.. I don't really like the other couples... I just focused on the main leads. Putangi** naman MDL ow.. 500 words parin? I hope someday Jung Hae In and Chae Soo Bin will reunite with each other in other project. Hay naku di pa rin daw sapat ung words ko..

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.

It ‘s ten from me folks ✨

here’s my incoherent attempt at a review
I 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))

One of the best coming-of-spring kdramas so far

I'm still sad about the fact TVN cut this drama to 12 ep instead of 16 eps just because of low ratings. The drama is literally such a masterpiece. The cinematography gives so much comfort and warm feels to it, you can actually feel the warmness when you watch it.
Jung Haein's acting never disappoints and tbh this drama should rank one of his best ones out there. He adds so much emotion and expression to it. FL is also very good, I have loved her acting for a long time, and she was perfect for this role.

Storyline itself is written well. Although the start might not have that "hook" that usually most kdrama writers use in the first two episodes, you have to watch it very closely to actually understand the drama's progression. A lot of people think this drama's "technological" element let it down, but I think it's something very new.

Overall, I think this drama is just too perfect for masses to truly appreciate, so I'll be the only advocate for this lol

A Piece of your Mind: A Heartfelt Journey Through Love and Grief

A piece of your mind is a beautifully crafted K-drama that explores the complexities of love, grief, and the healing power of music. Starring Jung Hae In and Chae Soo Bin, this series takes viewers on an emotional journey that is both heartwarming and thought-provoking. The show has received mixed reviews, but its unique storytelling and stunning visuals make it a noteworthy watch.

The story revolves around Moon Ha Won (Jung Hae In), a brilliant but introverted AI programmer who finds solace in his work and music. He crosses paths with Han Seo Woo (Chae Soo Bin), a warm-hearted classical music producer who is grappling with her own emotional struggles. As their lives intertwine, they navigate the intricacies of unrequited love, personal loss, and the quest for connection in a world that often feels isolating. One of the standout features of “A Piece of Your Mind” is the chemistry between the lead characters. Jung Hae In delivers a nuanced performance as Ha Won, embodying his character’s quiet strength and vulnerability. Chae Soo Bin complements him perfectly as Seo Woo, bringing warmth and depth to her role. Their interactions are tender and relatable, making viewers root for their relationship despite the obstacles they face.

Visually, the drama is a feast for the eyes. The cinematography captures breathtaking landscapes and intimate moments with equal finesse. Each frame feels like a painting, enhancing the overall aesthetic experience. The soundtrack deserves special mention as well; it features beautiful piano compositions that resonate with the themes of love and longing throughout the drama. At its core, “A Piece of Your Mind” delves into themes of grief and healing. It portrays how individuals cope with loss in different ways while highlighting the importance of human connection in overcoming life’s challenges. The slow pacing allows viewers to reflect on these themes deeply, although some may find it dragging at times.

While “A Piece of Your Mind” may not be everyone’s cup of tea due to its leisurely pace and introspective nature, those who appreciate character-driven narratives will find it rewarding. It’s a show that invites you to slow down and savor each moment—perfect for binge-watching on a cozy evening or enjoying during quiet reflection.

In conclusion, if you’re looking for a K-drama that combines heartfelt storytelling with stunning visuals and an enchanting soundtrack, “A Piece of Your Mind” is definitely worth your time!

A piece of magic

Oh My.....I am not sure how this sensitive and visually beautiful series ever got a low review! I feel almost privileged to have had the opportunity to watch it. And that, as I have read, 4 episodes were cut because of low rating I am beyond flabbergasted!
Besides being one of the most beautifully shot dramas I have watched in a very long time, the acting was superb, the music hauntingly lovely, and the story so very touching...
This series dealt incredibly well with many complex human emotions; dealing with the pain of unrequited love, the devastation and regret of loss and the strength it takes to move past and continue on to have a fulfilling life.
Jung Hae In, a favorite of mine, has an almost etherial quality that made him perfect for the role of Moon Ha Wo. Kim Sung Kyu broke my heart in his portrayal of Kang In Wook....in fact there truly was not one actor in the series I felt could have been better cast.
This will be one I'll definitely put on my rewatch list...a truly beautiful series!

A mixture of perfectly measured ingredients which resulted into the tastiest cake!

UNDERRATED, A GEM IN THE MELODRAMA WORLD.

I don't know how to describe my feelings and emotions for this kdrama. Everything was so subtle that it felt so real and natural. The right amount of comedy, romance, and drama. This series makes me feel so sentimental! If you're into melodrama and slice of life, this kdrama is definitely for you!

The perfect slow burn, and to be honest I've never watched a kdrama that made so much impact in my life. The life lessons in this kdrama, chefs kiss! The focus on healing and loving yourself before finding comfort and love with others, the best! The plot equates to one word "maturity". The focus on mental health, the portrayal of toxicity in a relationship, all of it felt so real. I felt like I was watching someone's life, right before my eyes.

But even though it wasn't fictitious, It's far from the word BORING. I noticed a lot of people downvoted this drama, and that's because - I think reality or slice of life, isn't their cup of tea- for melodrama lovers, you should definitely give this a try and you won't regret it. It was cut short, but for me, it was still perfect. The conflicts weren't too much, and it stuck with reality.

Go ahead and give it a try! :D

Great drama

I first dropped it cause I thought there was some lgbtq stuff with the fl and Kim Ji won but no. They were just friends but admired each other. You should watch this drama, very comforting, no miscommunication, green flags coded. The only thing that disturbed me was that the ml first loved another girl and their story was so cute (childhood friends). I sometimes was sad for the fl but the ml handled it very well.
