It’s Okay to Not Be Okay premiered its first season three years ago. Since then, fans have been wanting to know whether or not a second season will happen. It’s Okay to Not Be Okay is a South Korean series that follows an antisocial children’s book writer Ko Moon-young who returns to her hometown to pursue her love interest Moon Gang-tae, a psych ward caretaker who has dedicated his life to taking care of his autistic older brother.
Here’s all the It’s Okay to Not Be Okay Season 2 release date information we know so far, and all the details on when it is coming out.
Is there an It’s Okay to Not Be Okay Season 2 release date?
It’s Okay to Not Be Okay Season 2 does not have a release date as of this writing.
This is because tvN has not confirmed the renewal of the series for a second season. Moreover, it is unlikely that a second season will happen, despite the success garnered by the first season.
This is because it is rare for K-dramas to have second seasons, unlike Western shows, since the makers usually plan to tell the entire story of the series in one season, even though certain shows like Squid Game and All of Us Are Dead break this pattern.
Additionally, the first season completes everyone’s character arcs by the time the show comes to a close, which renders a follow-up season unnecessary. Moon Gang-Tae and Moon Sang-Tae’s mother’s mysterious death is solved and her killer is brought to justice. Gang-Tae and Ko Moon-young also get together in a happy ending.
It’s Okay to Not Be Okay’s cast includes Kim Soo-hyun, Seo Yea-ji, Park Gyu-young, Oh Jung-se, Park Jin-joo, Kim Chang-wan, Jang Young-nam, Kim Mi-kyeong, and Kang Ki-doong.
Where is It’s Okay to Not Be Okay Season 2 coming out?
It’s Okay to Not Be Okay Season 2 isn’t confirmed to release on tVN and stream on Netflix.
The official synopsis for It’s Okay to Not Be Okay reads:
“Desperate to escape from his emotional baggage and the heavy responsibility he’s had all his life, a psychiatric ward worker begins to heal with help from the unexpected – a woman who writes fairy tales but doesn’t believe in them.”
