I can’t complain that It’s Okay, It’s Love is pretty much love at first sight for me, other than wishing it was a Mon-Tues drama so I could spread out the watching enjoyment. There’s still a long ways to go for this drama and the last work of the PD-writer combo in That Winter, The Wind Blows was also a immediate winner for me that sputtered to a drawn out tedium. It’s such a pleasure watching the cinematography, the colors and the energy all lending to the vibrancy of the oddball world of characters. It’s probably a psychiatrist’s nightmare to watch the drama turn the medical field into eccentric quirks and even made-for-TV debate not to mention doctors really skewering their ethical boundaries all over the place. At the same time I cut this drama a lot of slack because it’s daring and confident so I’ll wait and see where it ultimately leads me.
The super kissy drama still above with Jo In Sung and Gong Hyo Jin is really less spoilery than the typical kiss still which usually heralds some monumental shift in the OTP’s relationship. Here I can say it probably means nothing other than Jae Yeol being his usual boundary-crossing self while Hae Soo gets some unwanted skinship from an even more unwanted source. This drama has been pretty adult in tackling relationship boundaries and hashing out emotional commitment issues so an early kiss isn’t going to manipulate emotions out of me. The second OST has been released featuring Davichi singing the title track along with an official MV that’s worth watching because it contains lots of scenes from upcoming episodes. I’m most excited about the overseas scenes in Okinawa which won’t be shown until the middle episodes but the snippets already look breathtakingly beautiful. It’s a can’t miss if you’re watching IOIL and are enjoying it so far.

I too wish it was a Mon-Tues drama. I can't wait to watch Ep3!
Beautiful song - love the video too!
Ditto, can't wait for ep3-4! It was funny when he told her he didn't know she was into that type of relationship, than his face .. He was like Oooh shit!! Lol
i'm really in love with this k-drama it's ridiculous.
Davichi always sings breathtaking ballads. Really enhances the emotional scenes.
Yeah, the video makes it pretty clear that kiss ends in slap!
Really enjoyed the first two episodes, so I hope the quality stays high. But at least I'm assured the cinematography will be beautiful throughout.
You know I don't necessarily think that JIS is all that handsome, but damn if he isn't a sexy bashtard. And GHJ can be so very hot...all the way to the build up of the kiss...then...NOTHING...OPSAU...RIEN...She just can't seem to follow through on it.
How could that be?
Lemme think...even with CSW...Has she ever kissed Hyun Bin? Everyone should kiss Binnie.
Don't you think it perfect, though, that GHJ plays this type of character that doesn't like physical intimacy? Much like Park Shin Hye rocks the FBND role of the shut in who eschewed contact so her performance could create a distance with her male leads.
After watching the episode, I'm thinking that JIS is exactly what the doctor ordered for her and her character. I never imagined we would be able to watch a show on the non-cable television where the main characters are openly talking about sex. More importantly always thinking about sex and we are let in on their thoughts. To see them look at each other, knowing the other is contemplating whether, or whether not, they want to bed the other is so refreshing.
Think about the other romcoms where the OTP falls in love, kisses once, then for ten episodes sits distantly from each other NOT kissing constantly. Drives me nuts because it isn't how people behave IRL.
Btw, JIS is so skinny - barely any noticeable muscle on him. Does he eat? Yet, still, so sexy. It's the first time I've seen him in this light.
Agreed on JIS's hawtness and GHJ's lack of response, especially with CSW - I mean, how could she not? Even Gu Hye Seon has improved greatly in this field (and others).
Btw, your list ending with "RIEN" cracked me up. So. Much. Because your use of my native language was not expected, also. Funny how I had spontaneously added "Que dalle. Nichts. Nada" and other translations to describe her reaction, or lack thereof.
I like this drama off the bat too... it has such a refreshing vibe. I find JIS kind of anemic in the romantic sense in TWTWB but it could be that drama was just as anemic.
But here in TOIL, JIS is looking at GHJ as he wants to get her in bed with him but not in a sleazy way. Really hot.
I hope GHJ will not be inhibited in their eventual kiss scenes!
TWTWB was totally anemic. JIS in the right role is explosive, not necessarily manly but very very feral.
OMG. That is so on point. I hope this drama turns on all the right nodes for him because I miss that spark of his. Of his latest works, I haven't seen it. ...leaving me to wonder where did that guy from FF and WHIB go?
I'm a bit worried about the shot of GHJ's character standing on that gorgeous cliff...alone...
oh yeah me too...HS (GHJ) may not look sad remembering someone...but definitely she is ALONE...so where is JY (JIS)?...but i really really hope that the ending will not give depression on me lol else i will have to see a psychiatrist ;)
I like the story. But forgive me I don't understand how someone said Jo In Sung is hot, because IMO he's so skinny. He needs to eat more.....LOL...
