It’s Okay to Not Be Okay

A meaty, dark, whimsical melodrama that examines the difficulties faced by people suffering from trauma and mental illness, It’s Okay is not an easy watch at all. There is lots to unpack, difficult feelings to feel, and even internal biases to examine. So if you’re looking for a fluffy rom-com, this is probably not for you, for right now.However, it is remarkably satisfying to witness our characters’ journeys, because those journeys are teased out so organically, that all of the growth and progress feels earned and true. Fantastic performances by our cast – with a special shout-out to Oh Jung Se for his impressively amazing interpretation of an autistic character – brings everything to life, and it’s not hard to get invested in our characters’ journeys.It’s Okay to Not Be Okay Season 1 Download

Beyond its polished packaging, it’s meaty and thought-provoking and quite confronting, really, and it tests not only your patience (sometimes), but your biases as well, in terms of what you’d expect of key characters (quite a lot of the time).I’d say that if you’re willing to keep an open mind, and be ready to embrace the heavy along with the light, then this could turn into a very special watch indeed.xample of what (I think) most people expect of an Event Drama. I found it so slurpable, especially in its first half.
