Warning: Mild spoilers ahead!
SBS drama “
It’s Okay, It’s Love” is gaining popularity through writer
Noh Hee Kyung’s
unique ability to draw out the special yet warm relationships between
characters. There are many lines that moved viewers emotionally. Just a
little more than halfway through with 10 episodes, fans picked the five
best lines from the drama, according to TVReport.
Episode 3 – “Who says a diligent and nice person doesn’t hurt their children? Even my angelic mother hurts me sometimes.”
Ji Hae Soo (played by
Gong Hyo Jin), is a firm
believer that a loving mother with a good heart doesn’t have the ability
to hurt someone. But Jang Jae Yeol (played by
Jo In Sung)
tells her differently. His thoughts that the closest people can hurt
you the most makes viewers think back on our lives and our surroundings.
Episode 5 – “It can bring you pain and resentment and
distress and sadness and despair and misfortune. But it can also bring
you the strength to endure all of those things. Then you can call it
love.”
Hae Soo views love as something that brings only bliss and happiness
and thrill. When asked what he thought about that, Jae Yeol replies with
an unexpected answer. According to him, loving someone can’t always be a
sweet and happy experience, but you can heal each other’s wounds
through love. Many viewers agreed with his thoughts and gained strength
for their own relationships. This also showed their relationship’s
distinction from other relationships that have been portrayed in the
past, and also expressed writer Noh Hee Kyung’s detailed emotions about
love.
Episode 5 – “Come on out, let’s go.”
Hae Soo finds Jae Yeol sleeping in the bathroom (he has a childhood
trauma that forces him to do so). These were her first words that she
said nonchalantly as she woke him up. This short but strong line gave
not only Jae Yeol but also the viewers a huge relief and realization
towards Hae Soo. Jae Yeol feels comfort and warmth in Hae Soo’s behavior
when she treated him no differently than she had before. Her words gave
realization to the viewers (and to Jae Yeol himself) that he was
“different,” not “wrong.” This distinction that had been made left a
deep impression on the viewers.
Episode 6 – “I mean that our past scars hold us back, just as we remember old scars that had already past.”
Jae Yeol makes us as viewers think back on ourselves. Everyone
strives for happiness but no one cares or pays attention to the
individual hearts that have the keys to that happiness. In the
complicated and busy society we live in, there’s not a person that
doesn’t possess a personal wound. We say it’s okay when it’s really not
okay, and viewers could tell that this line was a message from Noh Hee
Kyung, telling us to look back into our neglected hearts and see what’s
inside.
Episode 9 – “It’s everyone’s first time in this life, so it’s
inevitable that we aren’t perfect, and that’s why we are pitiable, and
that’s why we can make some mistakes…”
These were the words of Young Jin (played by
Jin Kyung)
when Hae Soo—who loathed her mother due to her past trauma with her
mother’s unfaithfulness towards her father—revealed that, after loving
Jae Yeol, she began to understand her mother’s loneliness. Her words
consoled those who were living constantly trapped in our
self-expectations as well as expectations of others. It gave strength,
encouraging those to get endure past mistakes and move on.
Meanwhile, the drama has already reached its first climax as Hae Soo
and Jae Yeol get deeper into their relationship. But a dark plot twist
has been foreshadowed as secrets of Jae Yeol’s past are being revealed
one by one. “It’s Okay, It’s Love” also stars
Sung Dong Il, Lee Kwang Soo, and
EXO’s
D.O. It airs every Wednesdays and Thursdays on SBS. With six more episodes to go what do you think will happen?
