PSYCHO BUT IT'S OK!

Hello beautiful people, today I come to tell you about a Korean drama that revolutionized the Netflix platform, had a worldwide reach and is worth watching.

This drama is known in Korea as "Psycho But It's Okay", and in Latin America "It's Ok to Not Be Ok" is a story that revolves around a woman named Ko Moon-Young, who has a clear antisocial personality disorder, but surprisingly she is a children's book writer.
Throughout her life she meets Moon Gang-Tae who has unknowingly always been there for her. This young, kind, charming and gentleman person has a sad past, he is the support for his brother Moon Sang-Tae, who suffers from autism which forces Gang-Tae to mature very quickly and get ahead in life.

The plot of "Psycho But It's Ok" is simply exquisite, during the beginning of this K-drama, they transport you to a fantasy world, because the protagonist Ko Moon-Young, tells how during her childhood nobody spoke with her, because she felt as if death was always with her, and that is why everyone feared her.
The interpretation of Seo Ye-Ji is majestic, as a woman full of qualities that we usually see very often in the male role of the drama, of course her past marked her and made her someone excessively sincere. The plot little by little captivates you, with a black humor that does not bother but helps to clearly deal with problems or situations that are not easy to express.

It is wonderful to see how Sang-Tae develops in society with his autism, because it allows you to see the difficulties that people who suffer from this face every day. Talking about aspects such as personality disorder problems, autism symptoms and patients with varied conditions thanks to the work in a Psychiatric ward, make this drama something unique.

For me it is a deep drama that dares to speak and break imposed paradigms, not only that, the characters presented here are atypical to the schemes that have been used for years; It challenges the classic love story, as it shows how a heart can mend the scars of the past and emotionally heal people.
Few know that behind this plot there was a mastermind, the screenwriter Jo Yong. The writer of the drama surprised many by this interesting story and revealed what inspired her to develop it.

Jo Yong offered an interview for Star News and indicated that the plot of “Psycho But It's Ok” is based on a true story, one that marked her personally: “This drama began with my love story with a man who had a personality disorder and it's the background to Psycho But It's Okay”, “It's a drama that reflected my mind. Through the character of Gang-Tae, I wanted to apologize for not having acted properly back then” she added.

The writer continued with her reflection and said: "I wanted to apologize in some way and let him know that he did not do anything wrong. And I hope he is happy wherever he is. While writing the drama I was able to heal those feelings".
The truth is that beyond being a fan of oriental culture, loving K-pop music and watching these dramas this show is worth it and everyone should watch it, you don't need to be a fan, "Psycho But It's Ok" does not disappoint, has humor, sentimentality and above all it gives you a new perspective on topics that are not touched very often such as mental problems, depression, abuse or detachment.
Take advantage of the fact that it's still on Netflix, take a marathon either alone or with someone and enjoy this wonderful drama and its great soundtrack.

XOXO Li.
