My Favorite Song From the Mary OST

Now that all the songs have been released from the Mary Stayed Out All Night OSTs, I can safely say this is one of my favorite OSTs from any drama. It’s not terribly edgy or sophisticated, but the music is lovely to listen to and the songs have a touch of heart and warmth. Even the silly Bus song turns out to be adorably kooky! Plus, I just wanted to do a post where I could unearth that now-ancient official still from the fantasy wedding sequence in episode 1 of M3. Looking at it again at this juncture, who has butterflies plus warm and fuzzies in your belly?

Of all the songs on the OST, my favorite is now “I Will Promise You”, which just dropped two days ago. I thought it would be “Hello, Hello”, but then Jang Geun Seok‘s remake of Masaharu Fukuyama‘s “Don’t Cry” was a new singing accomplishment for him. It was honest and spare, a song where his voice and emotion are the key to conveying the meaning behind the lyrics.

Original Performance of “Don’t Cry” by Masaharu Fukuyama:

I totally got misty-eyed when I watched the MV of “I Will Promise You” set against some of the sweetest OTP scenes in the drama thus far. If there was ever a drama made just for compiling MVs of all the shippy scenes between the OTP, then M3 is that drama for you!

  • Thank you.oh this drama have lots good ost.love them all.somehow my top is hello hello but this equal on my top list.my bus also.ah so many songs but that my top 3

  • Hello and thank you for your posts! :-)

    I like 'Hello hello' , but I have no idea about the lyrics. :(
    Could you tell me, what did he say to her, before performing on stage today? I love your recaps, thank you for your work!

  • I don't think words can adequately describe just how much I adore this song. OH MY GOD! I can't remember another drama where I've been so in love with the main couple. Sure, the plot's cliche and any scene with one of their parents makes me want to poke my eyes out with a fork, but this is by far my favorite drama of the year. Maybe even the past two years. I'll be SO SAD when it ends and I'll have to say goodbye to all of the cuteness that is our Holiday Couple. Thank you so much for sharing this video and all of the other M3 updates. You're amazing!

  • Thanks koala.. it's the first time I've heard 'I will promise you'.. it's lovely.. and one can really appreciate JKS's voice in this one, nice...
    Is this youku MV an official one? come to think of it, I have not seen any official MVs of the OST? any idea where to find them?

  • beautiful song and so pleasing to hear JGS sing it...this is my fav song i've heard him sing! thank you SO MUCH for your break-out postings for M3! The watercolor banner on this page is wonderful!

  • Wow. JGS isn't a singer, but I definitely admire the time and effort he's put into learning to sound like one. I think this track showcases his voice to its best advantage. It really is lovely, and I can't wait to hear it in the drama!

    Oh Mighty Koala, I bow before your wonderful awesomeness! You truly are a wonder, thanks so much for sharing. ^_^

      • He's sung for drama OSTs before this, and played a musician in his last five projects, but as far as I know, he doesn't have any albums out and never had ambitions to be a singer. Still, he does have a nice voice.

      • No, he's not a singer. All the songs he had out there came either from his CFs or from his drama OSTs. He never had an album under his own name... ^^

    • he is a singer dear..a GOOD singer^^ i even like some his song from his drama before Marry Me Mary >> The Happy Life, Do Re Me Fa Sol.., Hong Gil Dong, You're beautiful. In KBS Entertaiment interview the host even asked the question why JGS not record his own album yet?? because he's always sing in every Film or Drama he Played

  • lovely song, thank you so much for sharing
    jgs has a deep and wonderful voice, i love him singing, i really can't decide wich of the 4 songs i like best, love them all

  • The lyrics are so sweet: Translation Naitari Shinaide

    Don't Cry

    Don't cry, come here
    I'll emrace everything about you

    Don't be scared of being alone
    It hinders your heart

    I want to understand your sadness
    I want to send you my warmth

    Don't cry, look at me
    Tell me in your true words

    Forget about the things you've lost
    As I thought, your true smile is wonderful

    Don't mistake this kindness
    I want to share happiness with you

    You're here, and with that I can be strong
    I'm here, I'll show you that I'll always protect you

    We can start over, no matter how many times
    Don't question your dreams, which are important

    You're here, and with that I can give it my all
    When I'm with you, I can go on living no matter what tomorrow is like

    Don't cry, come here
    I'll embrace everything about you

    Let's talk a lot tomorrow
    That's right, just like I thought, I love your smile
    Hey, smile
