03. It's Okay To Not Be Okay
In our third episode of Dramarookies, we are reviewing the most loved drama of 2020 internationally and in Korea, 'It's Okay To Not Be Okay'. Starring Seo Yeji, Kim Soo-Hyun and Oh Jung Se in leading roles, this tVN drama was a "healing romance" with topics of mental health representation, neurodiversity and societal prejudices being touched upon. With stunning visual treatments, this Time Burton -esque drama stole our heart but wasn't entirely faultless. IOTNBO is a story of three adults intertwining pasts having them face their childhood traumas and the set on a road to recovery. We discuss the use of darker themes, an unusual story line and the iconic comeback of Kim Soo Hyun!
