Honestly, for me his character is the only interesting one at this point of the drama and I cannot wait to see more of his development: whenever he goes fully on the good or bad side. Either way it will be interesting.

Not going to the therapy coz you don't have access to it is one thing. Dealing the best way you can in a situation you are in, is one thing. But being healed from your mental problems coz you fall in love is not real. At some point all the symptoms Type had were gone. Without any treatment. Unrealistic, with how amazingly deep rooted his trauma was. That's my problem. They had dysfunction and then they did not.
Also, I said it many times already, their relationship was not the only reason I disliked this drama. Even if the mental health issue of Type and Tharn was never introduce to the drama, I would at best think it was mediocre and silly entertainment.
Anyway, I finished the conversation with the person I wanted to talk (OP) and we agreed to disagree. Not gonna reply for more comment, coz every one of them brings exactly the same reasons, which I already talked about.

Exactly. We are done with character development for main characters already (which is ridiculous). It's way too situation driven right now. They just drop some random cases left and right...

It just takes away from the drama tbh, the fact he is always able to save everyone, even if it's 1% chance. The only time someone died so far in 2nd season, was the woman who was already brain dead when she got to the hospital. Like 10th episode, I was not excited nor scared about the two patients in the bus. We all knew they will survive so I was quite bored with their scenes. Right now, the only truly interesting character for me is Park Min Guk...

They literally did not have to show anything. Add one line from Type saying "I've been going to therapy for years, but it didn't help" or anything like that. It takes 3 seconds of the airing time.
For me, Tharntype is a case of bad writing. You may disagree with me, I truly don't care. I was planning to give it 1 tbh, but both Gulf and Mew seem like a nice people so I felt bad about it, even tho they will never see my review. For me the case was quite simple: you introduce a topic to your drama, you better know what you are writing about. I complain the same when I watch a romance that has elements of crime in it, and the crime aspect is butchered simply because the romance is the main focus. If you are not willing to put some work into your writing, do not introduce topics that require said work to make sense.

It's not one. That's my point. I name ALL the things I dislike in the drama in my review. And I did give it 2.5.
I also said that it hits all the things I personally dislike. All ratings are subjective. I could say the same about people rating it 10/10: that sure it might have some good aspects but for sure it's not worth full 10 rating. If people can overexagerate things they like and ignore the things they didn't and give the drama 10, then others can do the same but with lower ratings.
That said, this will be my last reply. I told you were to go IF you truly want to know my point of view, I won't be writing it here all over again.

It's well done for you, for me it's not.
I've been studying clinical and neuropsychology for over 4 years in university, soon to get my major. I know a bit about panic attacks. How they dealt with whole mental health issue in Tharntype is unrealistic and laughable. It's on the same level as Disney and waking someone up from coma by kissing their lips.
Anyway, I already agreed to disagree with OP. I said what I wanted to say. IF you want to (highly doubt you do tho) know what and why I didn't like in Tharntype, feel free to read my review. I don't see the point of me explaining it again in comment section.

and I did not reply to your comment, but the OP (but taking into consideration her replies to other comments). Then you commented under my with "If you're not jealous why take offense? What's your explanation is for?".

where in the last comment I replied to you I mentioned jealousy?
Obviously we are not going to agree, and my initial reply was not to discuss whenever Tharn and Type are toxic or not. You 1st comment commented how you don;t understand how so many people have a problem with TharnType and all the reasoning you gave were either: you don't understand the plot or you have not even seen the whole show. I wanted to tell you that there are many people who have reasonable complains that are far more than just "not understanding the show or not watching it".
I think, at this point it would be best to just agree to disagree.

I see romanticizing rape and crazy ex girlfriend just as bad as romanticizing healing your mental problems by the power of love. He stopped having panic attacks in one day. The whole trauma might have gone for a longer but the most severe symptom he had, was gone the moment it was inconvenient for the plot. Since there would be none or far less kissing and explicit scenes if they wanted to make the mental health problems realistic, they just got rid off one of the symptoms all together. This is what it's called bad writing. You add and remove certain aspects of your character without giving any explanation and reasoning behind it.
Even if I ignore all the other stuff I disliked about the drama (and relationship between Tharn and Type was not the only ones, I had quite a lot of technical issues here too), just the way Lhong story was written and dealt with would not allow me to give this drama higher rating than maybe 5/10.

How is jealously the only reason one would? For me, how bad the drama dealt with the serious topics is enough to get involved and not feeling nice, when someone minimized my opinion as a rant of jealous fan of different show (when I don't even watch that many bl dramas in the 1st place) made me want to reply to the comment. Here is your explanation. I have no idea if jealousy is the only driving force in your life, but it's not in mine.

Why should I hold BL dramas on a lowers standard than any other show? We get such a ridiculous unrealistic plot lines exactly because no one complains. Why would writers put any effort into their works, when the stuff they do right now sells just right?
Even putting aside lack of mental health help (tho we know for a fact it is an option in the world the writers created, since Tar did see psychiatrist many times), the characters are fictional but the world is based on the reality we see around us. No one gets over their panic attacks in one day, especially since the trauma for Type was rooted in such a vile and traumatic event from the past. this is exactly my point: the writer took extremely strong and serious topic, did not care to research and used them just to make a romance more interesting and explicite scenes more hot. And I find it disrespectful and lazy.
While someone can enjoy the drama for it's romance and the chemistry of the characters, I appreciate when they also see the flaws it had (no drama is perfect). I talked with many people who rated it 10/10 but agreed with the criticisms most people had. Good for you if you can ignore it all, I cannot, and many other people can't too. We have a right to voice our views and opinions about it, and minimizing them as not important, just jealous haters or as someone who judges the show without even watching it, shows more of how much of an ignorant person you are, rather than the people criticizing the show.

I'm sorry but as a soon to be psychologist, the fact that neither Type nor Tharn got any professional help and were healed with power of love and good sex is exactly my problem. The fact that a guy who had someone gangraped is not in jail but instead gets a fluffy "hope you will be okay now" scene in an extra episode, is ridiculous, the fact that Type had panic attacks one day, and then without ANY reason and treatment they just go away, is ridiculous. The IDEA that two imperfect people can be together and work hard to make it work is amazing, the execution of that idea in Thartype is: ridiculously bad. Just because the idea behind something is nice, does not mean the end product it. The writers did 0 facts checking and research while incorporating such a heavy topics into the plotline, and I find it, you guessed it, ridiculous.

Well, I disliked the series a lot, watched it fully. To make sure I did not miss anything while writing the review I also rewatched some parts. I'm not jealous of anything since I truly could not care less what BL drama is the most popular. I found a lot of questionable things about this drama and writers truly did not care at all about many serious topics. That, I found disrespectful. It is true that their relationship is/was toxic. If I started watching the drama half way through I'd say they are kind of cute, if I only watched 1st half, I would say they both needs serious psychological help and stay away from each other for the rest of their lives. And that was one of my problems: the writers ditched all the serious topics the moment they were useless for the plot. There are planty of well written comments and reviews naming all the issues in Tharntype. All you have to do is read them if you are interested. If you are not, I find your comment quite pointless. Either you want to understand what people disliked in the show and have some, hopefully meaningful discussion, or you just want to vent your frustration.

I honestly am starting to dislike how "perfect" Teacher Kim is and how everything he does works out. I need me some realism in this drama tbh.

For me it was not. With plot like that, when there is not really one leading plot line that has to be resolved, most endings would make sense.
I'm happy with the conclusion given to all the characters for sure :)

happy but realistic ending. I liked it a lot.

I feel like you are a bit unfair. From what we have seen in the drama, it is true he was more involved in raising the child than she was (except from that one hospital scene). We saw her come back home drunk more than once. We also saw he was usually the one who took care of the kid in the house after the school. I would also not say that being almost last in class is not a problem and that the kid is fine. No kid is fine if they don't get enough attention from their parents. If he is wrong for wanting to pursue his career, than so is she. Or none of them is, and they should somehow work it out like adults (and what they did at the end).
I mean, she herself notice that she did not spend enough time with her family because she was so focused on her job. She worked so hard to make sure other kids do good at school not knowing AT ALL how her own son is doing.
I believe their relationship was a nice portray of how marriages work in our times, when both parents need to work and yet somehow find time for the family.

was it sad? yes. Unrealistic: nope. Was it not the best decision for him: YES. But he is just a teenager. With his parents not even trying to reason with him, there was no way he would change his mind. I did not mind how they did deal with his situation. The most unrealistic drop out of school will forever be from SKY Caste lol

Truth to be told, back in the days not only female characters were rather shallow and one dimensional, it happened to all the characters. Male leads were as boring as they can get. I would just say that the quality of the writing changed A LOT through the years. All the characters are more complex and bring more to the table than the obvious stereotypes.
