well goodness me!

I know, I'm a doctor. I just wondered about the conjunction of proctology and psychiatry in the same drama?!?!?!?

It's hard to find now. drama-otaku has it.

"Proctology" really? Or is that a mistranslation of something?

ars longa vita brevis

Looks obvious to me that this is aimed at the international market; they've thrown a big budget at it, and a lot of it is in English. Looks like the story has nothing to do with F&B's previous series, but that's fine, we just want to see them together again. The big question of course is how it ends - the final part of the trailer with an aged Freen suggests there's going to be tragedy down the line.

Yes, as part of a delirium, but in that case the person is clearly very unwell, confused and disoriented, not like some characters in dramas who go on for months living their lives but not remembering who they are. Sorry, I haven't seen this drama so I have no idea if my comments are relevant.

Sounds plausible, but my experience of korean, chinese, and japanese dramas is that they don't do their research to make brain/psychiatric problems realistic. I know I'm being rather pedantic here.

People can lose memory of events, but personal identity is very robust. Once I interviewed a man who didn't know who he was, but he was extremely unwell physically.

Given that amnesia just doesn't happen in real life, I'm not able to swallow such stories.

Hard to remember now, it was a while ago, but I just didn't feel I was watching real people doing real things, but rather two actors doing a stylised performance on a stage, with the director guiding it all.

There is a synopsis on dramaotaku. Seems it might be a laid-back rural travel drama. Or maybe a marriage drama.

Sure did, every unpleasant minute of it, about a year and a half ago. So you see it differently?

I've done a first draft of e8-12 and will try to finish them this week.

The psychology of this story is so messed up, and typical of many Asian dramas. It’s ridiculous that because the ex-boyfriend says he loves her, and cries everywhere except in front of her, somehow that excuses the abominable way he treated her repeatedly, including sexual assault, because it clearly wasn’t given with real consent. Whoever calls that love has a very twisted understanding of love. It was quite narcissistic, and someone like that in real life would be very unlikely to change and become capable of truly caring for someone. The ending felt rushed and unfinished. Perhaps the script writer was hoping for a second season.

I'd like to release them, but I don't know how to contact him to get permission.

Thanks for that. Only eps 1,5,6 available. I ran a VPN with various countries including Taiwan where the list originates, but couldn't unlock the missing ones.

Only episode 1 unfortunately, at this date anyway.

Ko Chia Yen/Alice Ke enchanted me in the original series, and so I went on to look up her other work: enjoyed her also in La Grande Chaumiere Violette, which was also very good.
