It's Okay, That's Love has made a lasting impact on my life. I would recommend this kdrama to anyone, because of how amazing it was. You'll feel yourself rooting for the main characters and their stories. As psychiatrists, Hae-soo and Dong-min work with people who are suffering and help them find reasons to live again. This drama sends a message of how love and care can heal all things over the course of time. This drama tells you that you're not alone and that you can overcome the hurt inside of you.
I'm writing this review after re-watching it probably more than 5 times! Yes, it's That good.
Story:
Jang Jae-yeol (Jo In-sung), a famous author of mystery novels, and Ji Hae-soo (Gong Hyo-jin), a psychiatrist, meet one another and end up living in the same house. Jae-yeol becomes Hae-soo's third roommate, with Dong-min and Soo-kwang already having lived there. Dong-min is a psychiatrist, senior to Hae-soo, that has his own office set up in their home. Soo-kwang has Tourette's syndrome, and enjoys trying his luck at meeting women, asking Jae-yeol for advice often. The four of them support and care for one another, creating such feel-good moments.
Jae-yeol has a troubling history with his older brother, and he is disturbed by his past. Jae-yeol's history begins to unravel and Hae-soo, who has a sex phobia, begins to fall in love with Jae-yeol. The two truly heal one another's wounds in a beautiful way. It was nice to see that the characters were not perfect, but were able to grow together.
The drama is open about mental illness, sex, and the like. There is a transparency that is not often found in other kdramas. For example, during one scene, the characters discussed the importance of consent. I really loved this aspect about it.
Acting/Cast:
10/10.
Jo In-sung plays Jang Jae-yeol perfectly, and made me fall in love with his character. His emotional delivery during scenes that called for it was convincing. The way he portrayed despair, brokenness, as well as playfulness, and humanness, was spot on. Jo In-sung's character is just so Swoon worthy.
Gong Hyo-jin delivered Hae-soo's guarded but loving personality so well. She made you feel the anxiety that Hae-soo was facing and want to see her overcome it. I can't really picture another actress as Hae-soo.
Music:
Replay worthy! So many great and memorable songs on this OST.
