Over 2 years into orthodontic treatment!

I started orthodontic treatment in 2020, and it's already been over 2 years! I don't remember exactly when in 2020 I had it done, but one thing I know for sure is that it's been over 2 years! Maybe about 2 years and 1-2 months?? My teeth are on the larger side, but the space was narrow, so my front teeth protruded and I had malocclusion too! So I thought a long time about it after hearing that extraction would be necessary to pull the front teeth in and see definite results, then decided to go ahead with it! Otherwise, I'd have done orthodontic treatment, spent the time and money, endured the pain, and still not seen results, and then if I had to get retreatment, that would've been the worst! So I had 4 teeth extracted in total, 2 upper and 2 lower, and got Clippy-C treatment!! Originally I was paying in installments of 3.6 million won, 150,000 won per month, but because I paid on the same day they discounted 50,000 won, then another 100,000 won because I did it together with my younger sibling, and then another 150,000 won because I brought my boyfriend too, so in total I probably did it for 3.3 million won! Originally my younger sibling and I were treated by a female doctor, but she quit, so Director Kim Seon-min took over! My boyfriend too! My younger sibling is being treated by Director Jang Jin-ung! Anyway, the original treatment period was expected to be about 2 years, but because my bones are thick and strong to begin with, my teeth move a bit slower than other people's, so it's progressing slower than expected, but it's still going well! My front teeth used to stick out a lot, so I had a total rabbit-teeth, protruding-mouth lookㅎㅎ Now they've gone in a lot! In between, they also took CT scans, and the director proudly showed me a PPT she had prepared and explained everything to me! The state before orthodontics, the middle process, and the current state! How much it changed and how it would go from here! So that was cuteㅋㅋㅋㅋ At first I felt a bit weird because the doctor in charge changed, but maybe because the director is young, she makes it fun and explains things in detail when I ask!! So I think it's pretty good! My younger sibling's director apparently doesn't do that..ㅎㅎ Still, I think they do orthodontics well! Anyway! The reason I chose this place is because there were many reviews about orthodontics and the reputation was good! And the price was cheap, there were a lot of doctors, and the facilities seemed decent, so I went there! I originally lived in Daejeon, so I was going to do it there, but this place was cheaper, so I ended up here (and my boyfriend lives in the Seoul metropolitan area, so it was convenient to come see him too), but in the end, if you factor in transportation, it seems about the sameㅋㅋㅋㅋ Maybe even more expensive? Anyway, the orthodontics are going well! The manager who handled my first consultation also explained things in detail (and above all, she was so pretty ㅠ), and overall everyone seemed kind!! Of course, while going to the hospital, I did run into some dental hygienists who weren't like that, so I told the clinic about it..! And as I said, there were a lot of reviews here, so there were a lot of patients too...ㅎㅎ So even though I made a reservation, most of the time I had to wait.. Often the waiting time is longer than the consultation time.. But still, since they treat so many patients and see so many cases, I think they must have a lot of experience..? That's what I think! Since I've already started, I should think positively..ㅎㅎ I should have taken photos, but I don't have any, so I couldn't upload them ㅠㅠ Next time I go to the clinic, if I have photos, I'll take them and upload them! And if I wrote anything wrong, I'll correct it and post again!
