[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Jeong-ho] Kim Soo-hyun gradually approached Seo Ye-ji.


In the tvN Saturday-Sunday drama 'It's Okay to Not Be Okay' aired on the 28th, the scene of Moon Kang-tae (Kim Soo-hyun) slowly opening his heart to Ko Moon-young (Seo Ye-ji) was broadcast.


That day, Moon Kang-tae showed the free-spirited behavior of Kwon Ki-do (Kwak Dong-yeon), the son of National Assemblyman Kwon Man-soo. He confessed his feelings to Ko Moon-young, saying, "Shall I just hang out with you?" Smiling, Ko Moon-young replied, "What shall we play? Praise me for the kidnapping I did well today. You didn’t stop me," with a smile.


Moon Kang-tae said, "It was just a mutter. How could I stop someone dancing and singing?" Kwon Ki-do happily said to Moon Kang-tae, "I achieved everything today. Don’t say anything to noona. I’m the happiest today."


Kwon Ki-do headed back to the psychiatric hospital. However, his family ignored him, and his mother slapped Kwon Ki-do’s cheek, crying, "You just had to mess up. Do you finally think you can live? Why were you born lacking in my womb to be treated like this? Why do you break my heart? Why do you run to die? You caused this mess."


Kwon Ki-do said, "After being hit once, I get it. Hyung, our mom doesn’t hate me. She loves me so much," and added, "The one getting hit knows. If it’s with affection, it doesn’t feel bad even if you get hit. It’s strange."


Moon Kang-tae recalled his childhood memories with his mother. His mother always cared only for his older brother Moon Sang-tae (Oh Jung-se). Young Moon Kang-tae remembered being hurt by seeing his mother like that.


Moon Kang-tae headed to the psychiatric hospital with Ko Moon-young. Ko Moon-young said to Moon Kang-tae, "If you hadn’t gotten in my car, I was going to kidnap you. If you want, tell me. I’ll kidnap you and make you have a variety of fun. You were jealous watching Adam," she suggested.


Moon Kang-tae replied, "I’m fine." Ko Moon-young said, "When you have a face like you want to run away, expect me to pick you up and run."


Then the two talked about family. Moon Kang-tae was surprised that Ko Moon-young knew about his family history, and Ko Moon-young said, "I looked into it a bit," and started badmouthing his family. Seeing Ko Moon-young speaking carelessly about family and people, Moon Kang-tae said, "Stop the car," and got out of the car.


He then said, "I momentarily forgot I’m different from others. I guess I unconsciously expected something from you. Now it’s gone," and walked away. Ko Moon-young confessed, "I love you. I love you, Kang-tae."


Not feeling sincerity in Ko Moon-young’s words, Moon Kang-tae kept walking, and Ko Moon-young shouted, "Are you running away again? Why run when I say I love you?" Then she angrily said, "Why do you ruin the mood? Do you have a mental problem? At what point did you get pissed off?"


Meanwhile, National Assemblyman Kwon Man-soo visited the psychiatric hospital because of Kwon Ki-do’s situation. Kwon Man-soo told Oh Ji-wang (Kim Chang-wan), "Bring that woman and the caregiver," and looked for Moon Kang-tae and Ko Moon-young. He angrily said to Oh Ji-wang, "The director who couldn’t stop those two should kneel before me."


Moon Kang-tae was summoned, and he said, "I’ll go alone," stopping an employee who was about to contact Ko Moon-young. Moon Kang-tae told Kwon Man-soo, "Your son escaped on his own free will. No one forced him to come."


However, Kwon Man-soo got angry, saying, "You guys are doing this to screw me over." Oh Ji-wang said, "Thanks to you, your son’s symptoms have improved. He can be discharged soon."


Kwon Man-soo said, "Who raises such a lunatic? Even if you spin around hundreds of psychiatric hospitals nationwide, he’ll never get out in his lifetime. Useless kids are unnecessary." Moon Kang-tae retorted, "Useless? Then you shouldn’t have had him."


Kwon Man-soo said, "Parents have kids because they need them. Ask your parents if they need a useless kid," and slapped him.


Unaware of this situation, Ko Moon-young visited the psychiatric hospital to take her father for a walk and met Moon Sang-tae there. Moon Kang-tae got angry seeing Ko Moon-young with Moon Sang-tae. Ko Moon-young worried, looking at the bruise on Moon Kang-tae’s face, saying, "Who did this to you? You endured it again."


Moon Kang-tae coldly said, "What emotion do you have now? Why do you worry about me? You don’t know. You don’t even know what emotion you’re running on. You don’t know either. You’re empty inside and noisy like a tin can. So don’t think you know me well. You’ll never know me until you die."


Ko Moon-young cried after hearing all of Moon Kang-tae’s words. Later, she prepared to take Go Dae-hwan for a walk. Ko Moon-young criticized him, saying, "Are you sure all your memories are erased? Are you faking it?" Nam Ju-ri warned, "Don’t provoke the patient." But Ko Moon-young provoked, "You really don’t know me. What have I done? Dad," and Go Dae-hwan got excited and strangled Ko Moon-young’s neck.


Ko Moon-young walked alone sadly, muttering, "Moon Kang-tae, you don’t know me either." Moon Kang-tae, after work, spent time at home reading 'Zombie Child' written by Ko Moon-young and shed tears. Then he heard from Jo Jae-soo (Kang Ki-dung) about Ko Moon-young being strangled by her father and immediately rushed to her.


Moon Kang-tae approached and hugged Ko Moon-young, who was standing alone in the rain.
