Here’s how you can emulate Ko Mun

Yeong’s style

Following the end of Lee Min Ho and

Kim Go Eun’s Netflix hit The King:
Eternal Monarch, we’re moving on to
new K-dramas to obsess over follow,
and the two most talked-about series at
the moment go to It’s Okay To Not Be
Okay starring Kim Soo Hyun and Seo
Ye-Ji, and Backstreet Rookie starring
Ji Chang Wook and Kim Yoo Jung.
While the latter is, unfortunately, not
streaming on Netflix, the former has
been on the Top 10 list in Malaysia
(among the Top 3, to be exact) ever sin-
ce it premiered, and it’ll undoubtedly
be the show to follow these few
months.

Described as “an extraordinary road to

emotional healing opens up for an anti-
social children’s book writer and a sel-
fless psych ward caretaker when they
cross paths”, although IOTNBO is un-
der the ‘romantic’ genre, its dark un-
dertones—reminiscent of Tim Burton’s
films—are ultra-captivating. Seo Ye-Ji’s
character Ko Mun Yeong’s ensembles,
in particular, are not to be missed.
From gowns that radiate Morticia
Adams vibes (in the best way) to mini
dresses in the trickiest of prints, trust
us when we say that she nails them all.
