Aug 05, 2020

tvN’s “It’s Okay to Not Be Okay” has released a new behind-the-scenes video!

The drama tells the story of Moon Kang Tae (Kim Soo Hyun), a community health worker at a psychiatric ward, and Go Moon Young (Seo Ye Ji), a children’s storybook writer with antisocial personality disorder.

The clip starts off with the cast and crew in high spirits, as they work on a scene in the dark. Kim Soo Hyun says, “If Kang Tae were in the hallway by himself, he’d get scared.” A staff member hands him a flashlight, making everyone laugh. Kim Soo Hyun is satisfied and says, “Let’s go. It’s very reassuring.”

Next up is a behind-the-scenes look at the photo shoot for Kim Soo Hyun, Seo Ye Ji, and Oh Jung Se’s family portraits. Even when he’s not filming, Kim Soo Hyun is hard at work, checking the camera angles.

When Kim Soo Hyun is reciting his lines in front of the camera, Seo Ye Ji and Oh Jung Se are doubled over, trying to laugh silently.

The actors then film their scene in the library, and Seo Ye Ji’s angry lines and loud voice make Kim Soo Hyun and herself laugh. Kim Soo Hyun motions for her to be quiet, and a confused Seo Ye Ji freezes up. She asks, “Why are you telling me to be quiet?” Kim Soo Hyun responds, “Because we’re in a library,” to which Seo Ye Ji says, “I thought I messed up.” When Oh Jung Se approaches them, Seo Ye Ji is still unsure, and she asks, “Did I do something wrong?”

Kim Soo Hyun and Oh Jung Se show off their acting skills as they improvise their lines while watching TV together. When the cameras aren’t rolling, the actors get immersed in the cartoon they’re watching and ask questions about the show’s characters.

Later, Seo Ye Ji and Kim Soo Hyun rehearse together. The director tells Kim Soo Hyun to make his lying noticeable when he acts, and Kim Soo Hyun replies, “Okay, I’ll be the type who’s bad at lying.” Kim Soo Hyun then films his hug scene with Seo Ye Ji, ending the clip with a cute drama moment.
