NYT introduced the project as ŌĆ£this spirited mix of fast-moving monsters and royal skulduggery puts South Korea at the forefront of the action-zombie genre.ŌĆØ ItŌĆÖs Okay to Not Be Okay depicts a fantasy fairytale-like love story of a psych ward community worker who refuses to love under the weight of heavy life and a fairytale writer who doesnŌĆÖt understand love. NYT wrote, ŌĆ£The wizards of South Korean TV drama can play countless variations on the romantic comedy. This archly clever series about an imperious, emotionally challenged childrenŌĆÖs book author and the impossibly noble health care worker she falls for mixes the rhythms of a sex farce with the ambience of a dark fairy tale. Making it work is a mesmerizing performance by Seo Ye-ji as the writer, whoŌĆÖs both Cinderella and evil stepmother.ŌĆØ Meanwhile, you can check both series on Netflix now. Source (1, 2)
