Paolo Contis and LJ Reyes are back with another K-drama review and this time they're giving their review on the recently concluded K-drama It's Okay To Not Be Okay.

In his latest vlog, Paolo and LJ watched the finale episode of the K-drama starring Kim Soo-hyun, Seo Ye-ji, and Oh Jung-se.

Paolo shared that along with the beautiful storyline, he's amazed by Oh Jung-se's performance as the psychologically disturbed Moon Sang-tae.

He said, “Si Moon Sang-tae 'yun 'yung kumbaga favorite namin ni LJ.

“Alam mo maraming times na tinanong ako kung mayroon pa akong characters na gusto kong i-play. And I always say, I'm okay at wala na.

“But after watching this, balang araw, gusto kong makagawa ng isang character na katulad ni Moon Sang-tae na ganun 'yung pagkakagawa ko. Kasi maraming beses na gumawa ako ng mentally-challenged character pero flop.

“Trivia lang, alam niyo tuwing nanonood kami nito, naghahanap kami ng mali kay Moon Sang-tae.

"Pero wala kaming nahanap, walang inconsistency, sobra galing niya.”

When asked what he learned about the full series, Paolo shared that love truly conquers all.

He said, “Que se joda kung anong pinagdaanan mo, iba pa rin ang nagagawa ng love, e.

“Iba ang nagagawa ng love sa brotherly love, iba ang nagagawa sa dalawang bida, iba ang nagagawa ng love sa babaeng bida at sa kuya.”
