5 K-dramas that will make you long for an unrealistic boyfriend

 

Romantic Korean dramas, or K-dramas, are known for their portrayals of the nearly perfect male protagonist.

 

Popular shows such as Boys of Flowers (2009) and Secret Garden (2010) present heroic male characters that are attractive, smart, rich and slightly arrogant – traits that apparently aim to appeal to viewers.

 

More recent K-dramas have modified the formula, making their characters more relatable while still having the ability to charm and plant butterflies in viewers' stomachs.

 

Some characters, however, appear to be a little too perfect, having unbelievably good genes and every possible good trait known to mankind.

 

These unrealistic characters may be products of the imagination, but the K-dramas that feature them sure know how to make you long for their real-life counterparts, if they even exist.

 

If you're up for the ride, dream away with the gentlemen listed below.

 

 

It’s Okay to not be Okay

 

It’s Okay to not be Okay is slightly different compared to other romantic K-dramas. Kim Soo-hyun plays the role of Moon Kang-tae, a handsome caregiver who works in a psychiatric hospital. Destiny brings him to meet antisocial children’s book author Ko Moon-young (Seo Ye-ji).

 

The two characters develop an instant attraction, but past events and their emotional baggage challenge the relationship.

 

Kang-tae is portrayed as very dependable and desirable. His background as a caregiver also shows his ability to provide comfort, allowing for moving scenes in the series.

 

Although there has been controversy surrounding the series for content that is considered to promote sexual harassment , It's Okay to not be Okay is one of those rare South Korean dramas that puts a spotlight on mental health. Moreover, the show's interpretation of fairytales is interesting given its gloomy and melancholic atmosphere.

It’s Okay To Not Be Okay Episode 7 not only made us laugh, cry, and laugh again, but gave us several life lessons. (by Reiane Garcia)

Hours before Episode 8 let’s reflect on some of these lessons and see how it applies to our own personal lives.
1. Your body is honest, when you’re in physical pain, you cry, but the heart is a liar, it stays quiet when it’s hurting. 
- Moon Sang Tae, Its Okay To Not Be Okay Episode 7

2. Mother’s love is powerful despite them being sinners. At some point in our lives, it’s difficult to understand their reasons, but in the end, their motives and actions are always for the benefit and welfare of their children.

 

3. I realize that what he needs is not another brother but a friend. 
- Jaesu, Its Okay To Not Be Okay Episode 7

4. When you’re tired, get some rest. When you’re sad, go ahead and cry. It’s ok to take a break. There will surely come a day when you will be able to run again. 
- Dr. Oh Ji Wang, Its Okay To Not Be Okay Episode 7

5. Don’t be deceived by people who always smile and laugh. They may be happy on the outside but their hearts are tied with heavy burdens that surface when their guard is down. Most of us have kept our pains for so long that we tend to forget how to free ourselves from them.

Kang Tae is growing a lot warmer towards Moon Young and it’s a big step for both as they steadily shed the burdens of their past. It’s Okay To Not Be Okay is genuinely a very thoughtful drama, higlighting family issues from different aspects.
