Hands down, this is part of one of THE best K-Dramas I've seen in the past decades
Honestly, I dunno how to start this without gushing. I've just finished watching this, and the emotions still linger for me. Let's face it, it's hard to find a new refreshing K-Drama that's out of the box, more so if you're one of the veteran K-Drama fans like me who have seen more than hundreds of plots and stories. So when you start watching a really good drama, it feels like you're finding a diamond in the sand. That's what it feels like for this drama, it's a hidden gem you wouldn't have expected to find. I have never given 10/10 in MDL ever. But this deserves it all the way.
The characters here are not your typical K-drama characters - far from it. But one which reflects a lot of the actual personalities we would be able to encounter in real life. It does not, however, give you that feeling that it's too close to your own reality thus you would still be reeled in by their stories.
In terms of story and plot, it is unconventional but not unique. What makes it stand-out is how the story is told - how it is given life on the screen through many perspectives, and how we can empathize with the people acting out each emotion on screen. Each episode you're given a balance of emotions high and low, and that's what made it hooking all the more. The storytelling for this drama is nothing short of brilliant, it gives viewers a take-away for life up until the end.
Speaking of emotions, a huge shoutout to the actors and the directors of this drama. The emotions they had to convey were very difficult. There are a lot of heavy scenes and it would not have been given justice if the acting and the directing for each scene weren't concise.
VFX, Coloring, Cinematography wise it was also very much a visual ride. A lot of character perspectives were brought to life in this drama because of how it was portrayed in each scene through thorough camera work. Everything was so aesthetically pleasing throughout the drama, it felt like watching a long lovely movie.
The OST is damn great, I won't say anything but just listen to it on Spotify. There's a curated list already ;)
In conclusion, please, if you have some time to spare, take the time to watch this drama. It is truly heartfelt and amazing, I wouldn't be surprised if the drama and the actors find more fame right after this. It would be very hard to top this on my personal list, so let's all hope we can keep finding hidden gems as bright as Its Okay To Not Be Okay in the future (or else I'll be stuck in a black hole of finding great K-dramas like these for years again!)
