Summer Night Affair (2025)

Misrepresenting Mental Illness?

Okay, I didn't like this Meng Na drama that much. The acting was good, imo, it's just... the main character clearly suffered from mental illness that didn't just have to do with her hubby being bad at communication/cold to her. She definitely had depression. When he later explains that he and the girl she suspected him of having a crush on literally did nothing wrong, she still acted cold to him. Idk, this one was just... she killed herself because she didn't get validation from him for a moment and didn't bother to ask him in detail when he had a moment. I get that she felt abandoned, but damn.

Like, the writers make it seem as though her killing herself was valid simply because her hubby was horrible at communicating.

As a rebirth drama, i give this a 7 overall. I would rewatch it again simply because Meng Na and Yu Lun Hao did so good in their roles but the storyline is lacking. Is it a cute sort of first love drama? yes. but would i recommend it as a rebirth drama to rebirth lovers? no. I feel like anyone suffering from depression who watches this would feel very put off by it
