I honestly couldn't get past 25 chapters.
The story is fine, the writing and translation are good. The problem I had was with the characters. The male lead is abusive and manipulative, and his behavior made me queasy. Maybe I'm overreacting, and I don't fault anyone that can look past that or hold out until (hopefully) that behavior changes. The fact that the female lead goes along with everything the male lead puts her through (threatening her job, forcing her to accompany him wherever he wants, sabotaging her other relationships), doesn't sit right with me.
The story's treatment of mental illness isn't perfect, but it's far far away from the worst I've seen.
I can't say this story is horrible, I can say that it definitely isn't for me, and maybe not for others sensitive to that sort of content.
