Seo Yea-ji: Moon-young, "I Know you!"

Step into the world of "It’s Okay to Not Be Okay" with this charming painting titled "Moon-young, I Know you!" This artwork captures a poignant moment from Episode 11, aptly named "The Ugly Duckling," when Moon-Young encourages Gang-Tae to open up about his dreams and feelings.

In this scene, the hesitant Gang-Tae reveals his dreams, including a heartfelt desire to attend school in a uniform. The artwork then transports us into Gang-Tae's dream, a whimsical what-if scenario where he encounters Moon-Young at school, guided by his ever-supportive brother, Sang-Tae.

Gang-Tae's approach to Moon-Young is endearingly awkward, and he stumbles over his words, trying to express his feelings. Moon-Young, with a subtle smile on her face, clearly amused by his charming discomfort, responds with the simple phrase, "I know you." This declaration sends Gang-Tae into a whirlwind of foolish excitement as he repeats, "She knows me." It's a scene that resonates with viewers, as it encapsulates the essence of young love, youthful attraction, and those awkward first steps that many of us have experienced.

This seemingly ordinary encounter in Gang-Tae's dream elicits a sweet smile on his face as he sleeps, while Sang-Tae, observing his brother's emotions through his emotion board, realizes that Gang-Tae is genuinely happy, a sight he's never seen before.

"Moon-young, "I Know you!"" captures the beauty of this heartwarming moment, reminding us of the joy that can be found in vulnerability and the power of genuine connection. It's a piece that transports us back to our own moments of youthful infatuation and the simplicity of a genuine smile that says it all.
