[Asia Economy Reporter Kang Hyesoo] On the afternoon of the 19th, the tvN drama "It's Okay to Not Be Okay" aired a scene where Kim Soo-hyun and Oh Jung-se overcome their trauma.

Previously, Moon Sang-tae (Oh Jung-se) hurt Moon Kang-tae's (Kim Soo-hyun) feelings by bringing up the incident at the river. The two brothers dredged up forgotten traumas, wounding each other in the process.

Ko Moon-young (Seo Yea-ji) recalls Kang-tae's words, "Why did you save me? You should have just let me die," and mutters, "You bastard." Meanwhile, Kang-tae hesitates, unable to enter the hospital room where Sang-tae lies motionless.

Observing this, Director Oh Ji-wang (Kim Chang-wan) enters Sang-tae's room and provokes him, saying, "It must be unbearably hot in there. You must be going crazy. Did Crown Prince Sado starve to death in the rice chest? Or did he die from the heat?"

Sang-tae, covered with a blanket, flinches and feels suffocated upon hearing Director Oh's words. The director adds, "I'll take your younger brother, so take off the blanket and get some fresh air."

Director Oh also tells Kang-tae, "Watching you two is like watching a three-legged race." When Kang-tae asks, "Are you saying we're holding each other back?" the director replies, "No, you're relying on each other. When one stumbles, the other catches them so they never fall. Hang in there."

He continues, "Who knows? Maybe someday your older brother will hold you up. Most people with autism have excellent memories. Don't avoid it; face it head-on." Then he adds, "Go to work right now. Your replacement is terrible at the job."

The tvN drama "It's Okay to Not Be Okay" airs every Saturday and Sunday at 9 PM.
