In This Article:

'OK to be sensitive' is a Korean web drama which discusses many controversial topics in today's society such as feminism and gender issues. The show is directed more towards the Korean public to shed light on many issues that remain untouched or neglected by the Korean society. A clip from the show recently went viral, which brought the show on display.

Here are 3 reasons this why you need to watch this web drama right now:

1. It is much needed in today's society

Many people shy away from controversial issues which talk about sexual harassment, feminism, gender roles and other such issues, especially in the Asian society. The #MeToo movement is a movement against sexual harassment and assault. This movement is slowly bringing change in the patriarchal Korean society as well as causing a stir in political affairs. The show discusses the movement and highlights issues in the Korean society (and society as a whole) relating to sexual harassment, and it talks about how to go about battling these issues.

2. Feelings, feelings, feelings

I'm not going to lie when I first started to watch this show I felt a little uncomfortable as I was not used to such topics being discussed so openly. But after the first two episodes, I began to be empowered and felt stronger as these issues were discussed and solved.

3. It is different from other shows

Unlike other Korean and Asian TV shows, this is not overly dramatic or unrealistic. The charm of this show is it's realistic approach to urgent matters in our everyday lives.


Nevertheless, 'OK to be sensitive' is an amazing show which does not back down from any matter. Personally, I think the Korean film industry should make more dramas like this which incorporates controversial real-world problems. Make sure to watch 'OK to be sensitive' on Youtube!

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

Brooke Davis

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together. She slept around a lot and loved to party - sounds like your typical high school teenager right? Wrong. B. Davis had so much more to offer. Caring, loyal, and outspoken, she has taught us some valuable lessons throughout the 9 seasons that OTH was on the air:
