E Nebună, Dar E-a Mea (2020)

What a waste of time!

so, I was scrolling comments and reviews and they were just too positive. Maybe it's just my special taste in dramas of maybe there are somethings that should be told and nobody said them.
Story:
It was special? yes. I have never seen a drama with this kind of story and challenges. but does being special means it's great? Not at all. in my opinion, there were so much more we could see about support couples, the past of the main characters, etc. I was hoping to see more about families and their daily life in the past. knowing almost nothing about the past, made me confused sometimes.
Acting:
As a kdramer I worship Kim soo hyun. in every single dramas that I've seen from him, he is the best actor with no doubt. in other side, this drama was the first drama I've watched from Seo yea ji. She is a talented actress but I think her acts wasn't matched with Kim soo hyun's. and about Oh Jung Se, He should win an Oscar for his acting in this drama. he should. he nailed it.
Ending:
Everything ended perfect. and that's the problem. everything is just as it should be. lovers are together and the villain is caught. everything ended like a Disney cartoon and that's just not good. for example, the drama "Big mouth" has one of the best endings ever. we see good people die, bleed, cry. and in this drama? everything is as it should be. everything is the same, except the lovers found each other and the bad guys are arrested. I'm not a fan of these kind of endings.
Hope this review helps you! :)

In my Top 3 Kdrama

Re (re re) watching this drama and still enjoying as much as the first time (or even more !).

2nd of my Top 3 (My Mister 1st and The Glory 3rd),

First time I watched IOTNBO it really was a « good surprise » because synopsis didn’t sound that good for me so I didn’t expected a lot from it.
And woww !!! I was wrong :/ it was so great ! I loved Go Mun Young character. One of my favorite FL characters and soooo well portrayed by Seo Yea Ji, stellar acting / impressive !
Oh Jung Se is also very talented. Of course other actors (Kim Soo Hyun, Park Gyu Young, etc…) are very good too.

I love everything in this drama:
- Amazing casting/acting : as explained above main characters and support roles are portrayed by very great and impressive actors. IOTNBO was the second or third Kdrama I watched and these talented actors made me want to watch more !
- Writing/Story/Plot: Sometimes emotional, sad and/or funny the storyline is consistent and allows actors to shine. Real characters you feel close to. Interesting relationships (love, friendship). Credible development of lead characters and support roles.
- Direction/Filming : same as the storyline, direction/filming allows actors to show how great and talented they are. A great work ! (IOTNBO atmosphere made me think to Tim Burton)
- OST : even OST is very good. A lot of songs are now in my playlist (In Your Time, Wake Up, I’m Your Psycho, In Silence, Facing The Fate, For Joo Ree, etc…)

To summary IOTNBO is for me a Masterpiece I love and recommand ! It is the perfect drama to (re)watch when you want/need to have a good time !

I loved this K-drama so should you

I loved this K-drama, I loved it so much to the point that I finished it in 1 and 1/2 days. I loved it so much because of all the plot twists, if you like plot twists or K-drams where there is denial in love but in the end they fall in love this is the show for you. Things I disliked in this drama were that I didn't like how the male lead had bipolar feelings toward the female, and also that the male lead was too focused on his brother instead of his feelings. But things I liked in this drama were that the story wasn't just focused on romance but also family problems and thriller. I liked how the female lead overcame her fears, and also i liked how the second male lead was more fond of the female than the male lead. If you want to watch a drama that doesn't just focus on love this is the one for you.

Just one

Esta es mi primera reseña en esta página y solo puedo decir que es la primera vez que quiero comentar algún dorama que vi , porque los coreanos y los latinos somos demasiados distintos en cultura y humanidad. Excepto por el alcohol y que siempre he tenido esta contradicción como mujer y sujeto de derechos por la ausencia del respeto de las igualdades con Corea. Debo decir que deje este drama para los últimos que vi de Netflix porque por regla general las caras bonitas producen un extraño rechazo en mi y hacen que pre juzge una actuación porque generalmente no me convencen, en este caso el hermano autista del protagonista dio una clase de interpretación magistral que me robó el corazón lloré porque me dolió el alma , me identifiqué con las mascaras que nos ponemos para funcionar relativamente bien en la sociedad y definitivamente es el K- drama más significativo que he visto hasta hoy.

i regret the fact this is the first drama i've watched because it made my standards be WAY TOO FUCKING HIGH!!!! was she a little crazy? absolutely .. but i also loved how everything was connected from the stories to just the subtle things i could only quite catch on later or when i was rewatching. i liked the way they portrayed autism i feel like it opened my eyes a little bit to it the actor did a super good job !!!! the brothers dynamic was so beautiful it made me so damn emotional. like seriously i'm pretty sure i almost cried because of this show a couple of times. i do want to rewatch it properly because there's just so much to talk about and i wanna add everything to this

Acting like rent was DUE

Title says it all. Every actor brought their A game. To a degree where I couldn’t believe I’d seen them act in other shows because they held so true to their characters. It was bittersweet but life often is. A story about learning to love and be loved and the mortifying ordeal of being seen. I’ve never felt so invested in side characters and quite frankly, only about 2-3 out of the entire cast felt like a true side character. The characters were fleshed out to a “t” and the ups and downs were believable. Your heart ached when they cried and life was unfair. You laughed when they were ridiculous and out of pocket. You felt butterflies when you saw someone be loved for who they were instead of who the world thinks they should be. No notes, just watch it.

i loved it

i laughed, cried, got mad, screamed, cried and laughed some more but most importantly i loved it.

the story and characters are great, but the message about everyone having their own trauma's and getting over them or learning to live with them is so important. that there are always people around you that care for you no matter how lonely you feel or how much you tend to push them away.

i think everyone should watch this drama because there is a good message behind it, you'll learn a lot from it. you never know what happend in someones life no matter how much they pretend to be fine.

i really needed this in my life and i am glad i watched it.

Mind-blowing, Refreshing & Awesome Acting

I loved the story. In many dramas they use mental illness as a tool to stretch the storyline, but in this drama it is all about mental illness & focusing on that.

First & foremost, I loved the cast's acting a lot. Mainly Oh Jung Se & Seo Yea Ji acting. They stand out a lot to me. I know Kim Soo Hyun is a big shot actor, but they did a fantastic job playing an autistic character & antisocial personality disorder respectively. It's not easy to act as an autistic person how much of a good actor you're, sometime actors overdo it & it turns out fake & unrealistic. But Oh Jung Se did an excellent job playing an autistic character. Also loved how Seo Yea Ji played a character who is expressionless or can't express herself. I became a fan of hers.

I love Ko Moon Young dressing style. She is a badass woman. Love her.

Poor Moon Gang Tae, the patient puked on him & his helpless face.

Laughed how Moon Gang Tae saved Lee Sang In from falling

Loved how Ko Moon Young helped Moon Sang Tae in the event.

I would also do the same thing as Ko Moon Young, even if I’m not a fan of Kim Soo Hyun but uff the shirtless scene. The way she was checking out his abs & touching them.

I laughed so hard when Ko Moon Young was moaning in the middle of the clinic & said she is horny, poor Moon Gang Tae embarrassed look is so cute.

The way Ko Moon Young said “Do you want to sleep with me?” in front of everyone is epic scenes. This scene made me wang to watch the drama.

Laughed so much when Ko Moon Young said tiny to the patient.

The scene where Moon Gang Tae stands in front & Ko Moon Young came at high speed is also another scene which made me watch the drama.

I never liked Moon Gang Tae's mother. Even if she loved him, she never expressed herself, instead said so many hurtful things to him. If she had shown a little bit of emotion, he wouldn't have suffered so much.

Loved Ko Moon Young expression when she said" I’m a kid".

The sudden confession of Ko Moon Young & Moon Gang Tae walking away is hilarious. Later on, Moon Gang Tae did the same thing to Ko Moon Young.

Moon Gang Tae expression when Lee Sang In said he was Ko Moon Young man was cute.

Laughed how Moon Gang Tae saved Lee Sang In from falling. It reminds me of Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha scene.

Loved how casually & unbothered way Ko Moon Young asked Moon Gang Tae if he ever slept with someone & to carry her around.

Ko Moon Young looks so cute with that expression when Moon Sang Tae said she wasn’t looking pretty with her new style.

Jealous Moon Gang Tae is so cute.

It’s cute & hilarious how Ko Moon Young & Moon Sang Tae fight with each other over Mang Tae & Moon Gang Tae face after seeing it.

It’s funny how Jo Jae Soo prevented Lee Sang In from kicking Yoo Seung Jae.

Need a friend like Jo Jae Soo. He is always there for Moon brothers. Supporting them, helping them in every kind of situation.

The way Ko Moon Young was angry with deer for interrupting her moment with Moon Gang Tae is hilarious.

Ko Moon Young looked cute when she was all scared.

Ko Moon Young favourite line “Do you want to die?”

Ko Moon Young tells Moon Gang Tae she won’t have his child. She is always saying inappropriate things out of nowhere & whenever he is drinking. Let the guy brink peacefully.

Laughed so hard when Ko Moon Young said they should have a son in the middle of a store & how embarrassed Moon Gang Tae was.

It was so emotional & as well as sweet when Moon Sang Tae fed & took care of a crying Ko Moon Young.

I loved Ko Moon Young & Moon Sang Tae relationship. I used wach clips on social media of them & always thought that they were siblings.

Frustrated Moon Gang Tae cursing the deer is so cute & hilarious.

The way Ko Moon Young called out Moon Gang Tae for kicking her leg & him playing all innocent is so cute & funny.

Loved Troublemaker Trio trip.

Enjoyed the drama a lot.

Beautiful

Since this show had such an unique atmosphere, extraordinary actors, superb OST and fairy tale feeling, im giving it absolute 10/10. I loved it, really i watched it alone once and then again with my girlfriend and she loved it too.

There is one flaw though.
Since there us plenty of people talking about how good it is (and it was) im gonna talk about the flaw which bothers me a little in this show and thats the disorder FL has. I dont know what its called but its some kind of sociopathy and i dont really think that its curable. Even though its a healing drama, i dont think this is healable. This spoils a little bit the message in the end because if it was reality i believe this realationship would end very very bad... I think many people overlook this cause FL is such a beautiful person but it kind of send wrong message. She behaves really mean like REALLY MEAN sometimes but because she is beautiful and cute is it ok to overlook that? The show us so good but this was bothering me a little. It sends a wrong message really.

Completely pulled at my Heartstrings

"It's okay, not to be okay" has been my comfort drama ever since the pandemic days. I have already finished watching this a long time ago but I wanted to leave a review because I happened to rewatch this again, only by this year.

The storyline of this drama involves mental health issues and the way it had played out in the storyline, I must say has been perfectly executed. This drama pulled at my heartstrings with every episode, I felt the warmth of the storyline that was being conveyed through screen. Each character has stories with depth in them. I had definitely empathize and sympathize with each of the character. In short, the storyline is beautiful and I love the memorable story telling it had on each episode.

I love the natural chemistry between both FL and ML. Their love story unfolded in a unique but very sweet manner. During some certain heavy scenes, they both had successfully delivered an emotional depth which allowed their audience to be completely immersed in every emotion along with them.

Overall, the warmth that this drama gave me...especially during the pandemic days, had been something I will never forget.

Good Representation of Mental Health.

I’ve been watching kdramas for a very long time and I’ve watched every genre and tone that kdrama has to offer, kdrama has quite a lot of cliches but still some of them are really good. It’s okay to not be okay is one of those few dramas that keeps you hooked and has a completely different setting rather than the ordinary romantic dramas. The show captures each point beautifully and keeps you wanting more. This show is not your regular kdrama. It has something different about it (in a good way) that makes it one of my favourites. The chemistry between the leads is one of the most captivating part of the show. I like how the emotions are potrayed in this drama. Every character has a different story to tell and the writers, directors have done a beautiful job in bringing out those emotions. Even the actors have acted beautifully. Kim soo hyun’s acting is so perfect here, he brings out the reality ij every scene to the point where you actually start feeling his emotions. Oh Jung-se is another highlight of the show, playing an autistic character such beautifully and he never fails to astound us. Seo Ye-ji playing a cold hearted woman but yearning for love is beautiful. I highly recommend y’all to watch this show. Trust me it will not be a waste of your time. 😉
