DIRECTOR KIM Hye-young

High schooler In-young (Lee Re) loses her mother in a car accident. The world is a harsh place for a girl who is now all alone, but In-young is stronger, brighter, and more resilient than expected. With sharp wit and tenacious spirit, she seems determined to survive no matter what. Upon being evicted for overdue rent, In-young, who studies Korean traditional dance, secretly moves into her dance troupe’s building. Seol-a (Jin Seoyeon), the dance troupe director known for her strictness, catches her, but they gradually become friends. In-young also befriends the neighborhood pharmacist (Son Suk Ku). IT’S OKAY! is a film that is okay about everything. A solid narrative, humor, characters with personality, a star-studded cast, and skillful directing beautifully come together in this film, which adeptly captures the nuanced emotions of young girls. IT’S OKAY! is a debut feature film by Kim Hyeyoung, who co-directed the TV series Be Melodramatic. (Busan International Film Festival)
