It's Okay, That's Love is one of the best dramas in this genre. A mature romance exploring complicated psychological traumas, a light hearted extended hospital setting and a great friend/ doctor support system laced with quirky dark humor. Great OST with an amazing ensemble cast and Acting! Overall quite similar to Can This Love Be Translated in the main theme, but emotionally deeper in its exposition of the past and present circumstances and what it can take to heal beyond just love and words!
These dramas delve into the complexities of relationships where language and cultural differences play pivotal roles, offering heartfelt narratives that resonate with viewers.
