It's Okay to Not be Okay Ep 8

looks like its time for a lil vacation

Comments

That's very fair.

Jamaal Ellison

Agree to disagree. I think Mun Yeong has disordered thinking because she has a personality disorder or similar problem. People like that act the way they do because of how their brains are wired, not because they are necessarily malicious. It seems malicious to us because our brains don’t work the same way.

Meli

I enjoy you guys’ reactions because you have incredible insight that other reactors lack. It often bothers me that people often miss the message the story is conveying about how to see Mun Yeong’s behavior. But you guys get it. Sang Tae is sweet most of the time, and Mun Yeong is not, so I understand why it is easier to have compassion for Sang Tae than Mun Yeong, but actually Mun Yeong deserves some compassion too. Mun Yeong’s inability to respond appropriately, the way other people would, isn’t really any more her fault than Sang Tae’s is. They are both neurodivergent. Sang Tae has a neurodevelopmental difference—autism. Mun Yeong has been diagnosed as having antisocial personality disorder. That is not the same as simply being antisocial. People who have ASPD have brains that are wired differently from neurotypical brains. Their brains simply don’t work the same way that neurotypical brains do. Both Mun Yeong and Sang Tae can only change their behavior through intensive intervention by someone who understands them and knows how to help them. In fact, it is easier for someone with autism to modify their behavior—unless they have intellectual deficits or too severe hypersensitivity—than for someone who has a personality disorder to change. That is why early on Gang Tae said that Mun Yeong has a poor prognosis and that it is better to avoid people like her. It is very hard for people with personality disorders to overcome their ingrained ways of thinking and acting. With help and patience, those with less severe cases can improve somewhat. Yes, Mun Yeong behaves badly. Sang Tae sometimes behaves badly as well, as when he hits his brother. Neither of them should get to behave badly. They both need help, and they both need understanding.

Meli

Because she likes antagonize the shit outta people. Personally aside she's highly intelligent and knows enough about Sang-tae's personality to predict how he'd blow up seeing her playing with that toy at the time of posting i felt and feel like she was marking her territory.

Jamaal Ellison

How would Mun Yeong know that Gang Tae didn’t get permission from Sang Tae to give her Mang Tae? She has been trying to win Sang Tae over to get closer to Gang Tae. I don’t think she would deliberately sabotage that effort after all the trouble she went through to get Sang Tae on her side. I only see her deliberately provoking or attacking people who behave poorly themselves, like the man who said he wanted to kill his own daughter, that nasty book reviewer who insulted and sexually harassed her, the guy that pulled Sang Tae’s hair in the bookstore, and so on. She behaves badly a lot—for reasons, but I don’t think she deliberately set out to provoke or hurt Sang Tae.

Meli

The most unrealistic thing about this show is the how the mental health center hasn't been closed down yet because the staff is terrible.

Jamaal Ellison

I think the Reason why he was so fixated on her hair being different is because he has autism. He doesn't like change he has a routine. As far as Koi Moon goes, the fight with the brother is why I can't completely be on board with her character. He made her feel some type of way commenting about her hair Which he can't help. So she decided to antagonize him with the toy. She knew exactly the reaction he would have upon seeing it in her possession, She's playing a really dangerous game because he could snap and kill her Just like that kid who beat his teacher nearly to death because she took his video game. he Was tried and sentenced as an adult.

I said the same thing as Roshi, how do ppl just fall asleep like that and then I meet my bf now husband. This guy lays downs and be out while I’m over here tossing & turning.

Yeah the buses in South Korea come VERY frequently, it depends on the bus but like every 10-15 minutes.

우영팬

I concur. It's really not that good. Idk why people love it so much??

LisMM

that is your opinion, and your opinion is dogshit

Oni Tyrone

It really picks up,it's a long series so they're will be slow episodes but all of it is entertaining and really emotional

Teresa

i literally fell asleep in the first ep. does it pick up after? because i didn't find it worth continuing.

Snax

it's a terrible show. i hope not

Snax

Anyone knows if they're going to watch Vincenzo one day?

Luna Mé

That’s a great one too

Dennis Asubonteng

You guys should watch the kdrama Moving its really good with lots of action

Teresa

Because This Is My First Life would be my vote

Shabammo

I feel like y’all should do Queen of Tears after this one. It’s soooo good. Will have you laughing so hard but also so sad in like every ep

Dennis Asubonteng

I definitely recommend Queen of Tears after IOTNBO if y'all want to watch more romance kdramas! There are a lot of familiar faces in it too

Sayyongtou

solo prince

How many episodes is this?

Amos

That was the energy I’m crying 😭😭

Narutofreak94

I need a Kim Soo-hyun.

Sasha

what on earth is dude yapping

Sasha

You know it's a real quality show when even the rewatch is awesome. Actually this has been better so far.

Sasha

No pain, no gain.

Sasha

She was definitely going to end him with that rock. What kind of a fucked up situation was that even. Dude literally hit her in the face, slap or not it was a hard hit. And so now Roshi is just living for Ju-ri being salty.

Sasha

"I'm that nigga" is 100% Gang-tae's thoughts.

Sasha

Damn I can’t wait for the next

Sukisuki

not ready for the next episode

avril

The director and his staff at the hospital are trying to help Sang-Tae recover from his trauma; the mural is part of his treatment. So they won't just 'leave him alone and let him do his thing' because its not just an art project

Its dried squid, very tasty

Day 19 of my campaign for a MR ROBOT reaction

ShouldBeWatchingLuther

Hey is it possible for you guys reacting to uncle from anothwr world in th future?

R4and0m

It's actually very interesting watching this again, knowing what happens. 2nd watchthroughs are the best

J Man

The beauty and the beast is really based on Stockholm Syndrome, I did a project on it in psych class

Kywan Mallette

I need a Gang-tae in my life

When I watched this with a friend who is on the spectrum, they said that autistic people have a very hard time with change. It takes them way longer to try and adapt to changes than allistics. Though it was mainly played for laughs, it's partially the reason why Sangtae was having a hard time trying to accept Moonyoung's new hairstyle. It's also why he's going to have a hard time dealing with the changes in his life from here on out. I also wanted to mention that in Korean, the words "pen" and "fan" are pronounced the same way. So when Moonyoung said, "the pen was just so handsome," Gangtae thought she said, "the fan was just so handsome." That's why he was jealous and said that the "fan" just seemed like a cheeseball while walking away. 😂 Also when she said, "탐나" at the beginning of that scene, it actually doesn't specify if she wants "it" or "him." She's basically just saying, "I want." That's where the misunderstanding comes from on Gangtae's part throughout that whole scene. I'm loving these reactions, by the way! I love watching this drama again with you guys. 💕 Take it easy and thank you for your videos!

m

I feel like Sangtae asking "If I give everything to everyone else, what will be left for me?" definitely mirrors how Gangtae has been living his life up until now. He literally has nothing for himself because he has been conditioned since he was little to give, give, give, and he struggles with living his life otherwise. He, too, is a dog on a leash.

Ashley

Can't wait for the next episode!!!!

ARC98
