I don't know how this drama didn't get as much hype as I expected

I haven't seen many people talking about this drama and this pissed me off a little bit because of how good it is. I just finished it and I can say this was one of the best dramas I've watched ever. I thought it would only be a comedy drama without much depth, but it was so much more than that, it was so interesting, heartbreaking and funny all at the same time.
The cast of this drama is simply amazing, Shin Hyesun was the perfect choice to portrait our beloved Mr. Queen, she did an amazing job and never failed at making me laugh, and at making me love the character each time more and more.
I don't know how to say more this without getting super excited and spoiling the story, so I'll leave my review at that, and I will leave my recommendation to those who came here to decided if they'll either watch it or not.

Kind of a disappointment for me

It was impossible for me to watch this without having the first season in mind, and maybe this was why I didn't like it that much. The thing that threw me off the most was the setback of Joon Ki's character. In the first season he had grew up a lot personally and in his career as well, but suddenly they bring him back to the same spot we saw him leave in the first season? I really didn't like that. Not only they did that, but also they didn't quiet explain how things ended up that way.
Besides that, I didn't connect with any of the main characters to be honest, I though the romance was kind of weak, their personalities weren't as interesting as I expected it to be, and not even the jokes were landing for me. It is a funny drama, I guess, but after watching season one I expected much more than was delivered, so it did disappointed me.
It's not a bad show, but it took me forever to finally finish it cause I didn't get attached to the story nor the characters.

It is one of my least favorite k-dramas so far.

Maybe I've watched it too late for it to be a good experience. It was made when I was 13, so I get why so many people love this drama and why it is a "must-watch", but honestly I just finished it cause I can't let things unfinished.
The story is too dramatic, I got to a point where the only thing that kept me going was the secondary couple cause I simply couldn't stand the drama of the main leads. Instead of following a path of "falling in love > having a problem > solving that problem" they actually made a cycle out of it, where it happened so many times i couldn't even keep track, and that ended up being too tiring for me.
I felt very compelled to watch it because all of my friends who watched it when they were young kind of love this drama, but I guess I am, indeed, too old for this. It may be a good experience for other people, since it is very cliche sometimes and, let's be honest, a cliche is a cliche for a reason, but I wouldn't recomend for people like me who don't like abusive male main leads and annoying female main leads.

Definitly a must watch

How can I describe properly the experience that was watching "flower of evil"? I don't even know if I can.
This was one of the most amazing dramas i've ever watched, and trust me, I've watched a lot of those. Even the small details are perfect, like the casting - where the younger versions of the characters look so much like the actors -, or even the music that makes you so immersed in the moment.
It was an exhilarating experience to figure out the whole plot of the drama, and it was almost agonizing having to wait a week for the following episodes, but i'd do it all over again because this drama is simply amazing!
The only thing I didn't actually enjoyed was the last episode, I think that they could have done a better ending than that, but at the same time I understand the intent behind it and I don't think it makes the drama less amazing than it is.

One of the best dramas I've watched so far!

When I started watching "It's Okay not to be Okay" I didn't think I would get so obssessed over it like I did. I remember thinking that I would "just watch two episodes" and ended up finishing all the episodes that were available that same day. It was a real journey to see the development of each character and it was joyfull to see them grow so much.
I experienced so many feelings during these 16 episodes: I laughed, I cried, I got frustrated, scared, and at the end of each and every episode I was craving for more.
It brings up many things that I have never seen before on dramas. It brings up very realistic problems and it teaches us that it's okay to have some trouble during life, it's okay to not know how to deal with that problem right away, but also that we must not pretend it is not hurting us when it actually is.
I grew very fond of all the characters and it just made me happy to see them coming out of their shells, it made me happy to see them overcome their struggles, it made me happy to see them happy. I will definitly miss waiting for next episodes to come, and I will definitely recommend this drama to anyone who asks me.

And I must say: Oh Jung-se's acting was flawless, I became a fan after this.

A pleasant surprise

I started watching this show just because netflix started displaying it for me non-stop, but I didn't regret any second of it. Once again I was totally captivated by the main characters, and it was a joy for me to follow them throught this journey of self-discovery and self-forgiveness. I wasn't expecting to cry as much as I did cause, when I first started, I thought it would only be about four people hunting demons, but it came out to be so much more than that and i loved every second of it. I highly reccomend this drama, even though there were some things on the plot that made me feel they just didn't wanted to bother explaining and some things that were unecessary, they still did a pretty good job. The actors casted are all amazing, the OSTs are on repeat in my playlist now and, overall, it was a very entertaining and heartwarming drama.
