It is good that nowadays people are more exposed and open to the mental issues we have in our society. Depressions, Anxiety and other disorders are serious illnesses that we cannot ignore. The more we learn about this illness the more that we know how to handle it, if ever we encounter these issues. KBS upcoming dramas this 2020 focuses more on these serious issues and it's is good that people get to learn something in these shows. I can consider it a big help opening up people's thoughts and giving them sufficient knowledge about some mental issues.
