For the second episode of Beyond The Romance, I and my guest Yetide Badaki, share our thoughts on how from the very first episode It's Ok To Not Be Ok carefully illustrates the path each of the characters take to healing when memories of painful secrets that though they would rather they remain hidden, are confronted because they realize they can't remain locked in their emotional prisons forever.

Starring Kim Soo-hyun, Seo Yea-ji and Oh Jung-se, It's Ok To Not Be Ok takes audiences on the type of emotional rollercoaster fans of Korean dramas love to experience. At the Ok Psychiatric Hospital lead by Dr. Oh Ji-wang (Kim Chang-Wan) Kang-Tae's older brother Sang-tae (Oh Jung-Se) who is autistic, is able to slowly come into his own as an artist when he's hired to paint a mural, and as an illustrator for famous children's book author Ko Moon-yeong(Seo). Moon Kang-tae (Kim) takes to healing and growth when he takes a job as a community health worker at a small psychiatric hospital and encounters patients whose stories cause him to come to terms with issues he himself has been struggling with for years.
