I’m too lazy to translate the world of fanfiction about the Geun-Geun Couple or stories continuing where Mary Stayed Out All Night left off. But when I came across this brilliant and ROFL picture story book, it begged me to take the time to share it. Bringing you a what-if scenario of: Mae Ri runs over Mu Gyul, sending him back in time where he wakes up as Chang Hwe, who runs into Eun Bok, sees that she looks just like his Mae Ri, and hurries off to marry the little cross-dressing lady.
This picture story uses screencaps from Jang Geun Seok‘s Hong Gil Dong, and Moon Geun Young‘s Painter of the Wind. There are also some wickedly meta cameos in this story, which I won’t reveal and spoil the surprise. Just a refresher: in HGD, Jang Geun Seok plays Chang Hwe, an exiled prince who is back to reclaim his rightful throne, and in PotW, Moon Geun Young plays a genuis painter who must cross-dress as a boy to join the Royal Art Institute and paint for the royal family.
I’m going to watch Mu Gyul’s performance today, so happy!
Listening a few more times before the performance, I love listening to my own voice~
Mu Gyul oppa….Mae Ri’s car is behind you…
Oh my god! Did I run into someone?
From this moment, a flower boy lost his life in the hands of the woman he loves.
Sleeping Chang Hwe oppa….
Eh? Where am I? Did I die????
I understand now, I traveled through time and space. And here I always thought this was only in fiction…
Lady Rong, your highness me is really bored lately. Find someone to go undercover with me outside the palace.
Your Highness, you cannot go to such wicked places.
How dare you! There is no place I cannot go! Furthermore, I am only going to see how my people are faring.
The most famous gisaeng Xian Xian has arrived.
OMG! Isn’t that Mae Ri?!
Naeuri, your humble servant only sells her talents, not her body. Please do behave~
Who dares to touch my Mae Ri, eat one of my hand grenades!
Thank you for saving my life, Doronim (meaning young master)~~
Jagiya, I miss you!!
You can kill me, but you cannot shame me! I am not your Mae Ri! My name is Yoon Bok!
My luck is extraordinary. Even after traveling through time, I meet someone who looks just like Mae Ri. I’ll figure everything out later, gotta get her married to me first…
Litte Bok-ahh, you need to come with me, this place doesn’t suit you!
If Doronim wants to marry me, bring eight paladins and come get me. I will remain virtuous and await you.
Also, will Doronim not call me little Bok Bok, you can call me Cutie Bok (embarassed…)
Just thinking of marrying Yoon Bok tomorrow is making me so excited I can hardly sleep! You, go summon Lady Rong!
Your highness please do not worry, I will prepare all the dower gifts.
Mmmm, not bad, the paladin is gold-rimmed, and the paladin carriers are very cool, dressed all in black.
Surprise!! ~Haha~ Gong Zhi, where are you going all dressed so nice?
Oh shit! Who is this person? Don’t tell me I already have a girlfriend here?
*Cough, cough, cough* Actually, after I was injured that time, I’ve temporarily lost my memory.
So not fair! I’ve finally found a rich guy, and now he’s forgotten me!
Tell me! Where did our relationship progress to? I can handle it!
Our relationship progressed to eating bean buns together….no, you ate a bean bun, I ate a steamed bun, damn it….
Compared to my relationship with Mae Ri, people in olden times sure are conservative….
(It appears that this girl had a one-sided crush on me. This face of mine, still so popular even in historical times)
Hey you, I’ve got to leave to take care of something. Let’s catch up when I come back.
(so excited….would little Bok Bok be extra beautiful today?)
Hwe oppa~ I’ve been waiting a long time for you!
Xia Mi (means WTF in Taiwanese)! Oh, you must be little Bok Bok’s brother, nice to meet you!
I just knew that wuri Hwe oppa had a sense of humor. Actually, I had a little matter that I concealed from my Hwe oppa. This attire is what I normally look like!
Are you saying, that you are a MAN! (Oh my jesus, I’m in deep shit, I’ve fallen for a man %>_<%)
I’m a real woman….except my real identity is a painter. Going to the gisaeng house is just my part-time job.
For years I’ve been scraping by, having to take care of my master and unni. I can’t ever earn enough paint money, so I’ve no choice but to take on other part-time jobs to earn money….ayyy.
(a sad life just like Mae Ri….)
Come on, let me take you shopping.
Oooh, this paint brush looks high qualtiy…oh, lately the price of socks has been dropping like a rock….omo, this outfit looks just right…..
Tearing up….of course little Bok Bok is just like Mae Ri, playful and adorable.
*cough, cough* We’ve been out for an entire day now, don’t you think we should….
Aiya, Hwe oppa, I think I just saw my unni, hold on a moment!
Bok-ahh, didn’t you go get married, why are you wandering around the streets?
Hwe oppa, let me introduct you, this is my unni, she’s even more beautiful than I am!
Isn’t this the chick that made that Brilliant Legacy drama with Lee Seung Gi? Did she travel through time as well?! Let me test the waters…..
Miss, lovely to make your acquaintance. You are more beautiful than your picture! Oh ho!
(what a cute youngster, just a tad….I wonder if he’s been stunned silly by my beauty?!)
Bok-ahhh, you two go live a happy life together, understood? Remember that being good looking can’t fill up your stomach.
Unni, there is something you don’t know, Hwe oppa isn’t just good looking, he’s also filthy rich. If I told you his real identity you will die from shock.
Hehe, my sister has a very direct personality, I’m sure it must seem silly to you.
Hwe oppa, its getting late, why don’t we hurry back and go get some sleep!
(thinking…..wow, she’s very forward!) Okay, this sounds fine….
They returned to the palace during the dark of the night
Everyone listen to my orders. No matter what happens tonight, no one take any action
Sneak a peek, is my little Bok Bok warming the blankets for me?
Hwe oppa, you’re finally done with your work! Don’t just hang on the door, hurry up and come inside!
Wah, why is there is curtain dividing the bed?
Hwe oppa, you don’t understand, my family has many traditions. If you haven’t met my master, we can’t have spousal relations. Tomorrow I will take you to meet him.
I highly suspect that little Bok Bok has been possessed by the spirit of Mae Ri (*cries tears….*)
I’m snuffing the candle! Don’t wake me up too early, if I don’t get 10 hours of sleep I will have dark circles under my eyes.
The next morning, the sun has barely risen…..
You dragged me out of bed this early, that’s not cool, look at my dark circles!
Aren’t you taking me to see your master. Old people get up very early!
Actually, my master is very good looking, not old at all~
I can’t believe she is complimenting another man in front of me. I’m going to check out just how good looking the old bastard is!
Master, please open the door! Your student has brought her husband to meet you!
Student of mine, your master I have missed you!
I can’t believe it, the master is a total dandy….
My student has finally reached the day where she is off to marry someone. Master I shall gift you with the following words of wisdom: $^%&*^&*%#%^$^&&&%^(*)*…..
Just a little reminder, master, that you have been speaking for 5 hours now….
There is no banquet in the world that doesn’t end….
Hwe oppa, master has finally stopped talking, we can go home now!
It’s yet another dark windy night when they return to the palace….
Hee hee, how do I look?
Not bad not bad, cheerful yet still retains your personality. Our Hwe-hyung is surely a dragon among men!
Will Hwe oppa be mesmerized by me? Nervous….
Lady Rong, please remove the dividing curtain in the bed.
Happy Ending (thank you for watching!)

omg this is pretty fantastic!
Mwa ha ha! This is mighty awesome! Thanks Ockoala!
wehehehehe..this is sooo way cooollll…..like like like it so much…they really look good together!
Lurve lurve lurve!!! Especially working in Sunjoon and Yongha. Gheeeeeeeeeee! Dies of happiness. I’m a-gonna have me some good dreams tonight! Thank you, ockoala!
LOL. Thanks ockoala so much! It is a one super awesome fanfiction.
Five hundred stars out of 5! **–**
Seeing the 2 guys from SKKS almost made me cry in laughter!
But seriously, I loved MGY’s gisaeng costume and make up in PotW. She looked so beautiful there. And JGS’ prince outfit made him look handsomer…
Oh wouldn’t be something if the next MGY and JGS project is a saeguk?
The addiction continues… 🙂
My dear
Ditto re saeguk project, only thing is that not much intimacy,the most you’ll get is hugs and kiss? means a peck, real clean cut [NOTHING like the alley scene which we all so famished about!] Depicts the times, I guess… what think anybody??
Then again, anything is better than NO project… so just anything [CF, interview, award ceremony etc.] that will bring them together…
Desperate me! help!!!
Cheers to all shippers….
Oh tangee, cheers to you too! You’re right. I forgot about that…So how about one like the fanfiction – where there is time travel situation? First half of the drama will be in modern times where romantic stuff can happen, then the middle episodes of the drama will be in saeguk setting where they can wear beautiful and handsome costumes, and the last few episodes will bring them back into the modern times to resume more romantic awesomeness! 😉
The possibilities are endless in Geun-Geun ship! 🙂 🙂 🙂
“””First half of the drama will be in modern times where romantic stuff can happen, then the middle episodes of the drama will be in saeguk setting where they can wear beautiful and handsome costumes, and the last few episodes will bring them back into the modern times to resume more romantic awesomeness!”””
Good on you!! That should about cover everything!! Next step, you may want to sell this idea to any producer / scriptwriter in Korea? By then, you would have been a millionaire overnight and enjoy instant popularity at the same time.. he he…
Tangee, “By then, you would have been a millionaire overnight and enjoy instant popularity at the same time” :: Now, once you have a million, please do us at Lovely Geunship Bubble a favor i.e. sponsor the Geuns for their wedding. They can’t hide for that long..they need to get married soon. Now we have enough fund to get them tie the knot already. yay!! 😀
Thanks tangee and zz for your kind praise to my dream next project for JGS and MGY! 🙂 Wouldn’t it be nice to become a millionaire and the sponsor of our Geun-Geun couple’s wedding! Of course, all Geun-Geun shippers in AKP will be invited first class…
Have u guys seen the MV that MikiMouse just posted on the Discussion forum “Why the Geun-Geun couple is cuter than kittens” ? The MV shows JGS singing “Fly Me to the Moon” in his Japan’s FM. And we know who the “Moon” he is referring to… 😉 Is that one of the cryptic messages that Hachimitsu thought JGS and MGY will be leaving each other on their website?! 🙂 🙂 🙂
Dear bashful and zz
Thanks for making me laugh. both of you are creatively witty and funny at the same time…
Let’s hope all our wishes will come true… one day.. soon!
“””The MV shows JGS singing “Fly Me to the Moon” in his Japan’s FM. And we know who the “Moon” he is referring to… 😉 Is that one of the cryptic messages that Hachimitsu thought JGS and MGY will be leaving each other on their website?!”””
I agree that there is some substance to this… we will patiently wait…
cheers…
wow!!! bashful, tangee and zz…(”,)
such an interesting exchange you gals had here!!!
ive been super busy so i couldn’t come here and read the fascinating ideas you gals came up with!!! (”,)
i agree totally with wanting the Geun-Geun couple in a sageuk asap but…i would rather they keep to being subtle, refined and dignified by NOT portraying a bed scene but subtly IMPLYING it…as was done in Marry Me, Mary… (”,)
somehow i am for the “less is more” concept and maybe because i am from the older generation, i see subtlety, refinement and elegance in portraying emotions and actions as more profound than “in-the-face” style that is favoured nowadays…or in other words, the style that seems to favour the “sex sells” concept…
i appreciate the need to portray the stories in dramas and films as close to reality as possible but i believe there is not just one way of achieving that…
and i personally appreciate the writers and directors more if they are able to achieve that with just the right amount of skinship…
not too much, such that nothing is left to the imagination…
or too little, such that viewers are left frustrated…
it is a delicate balance, requiring masterful and artful handling, for an execution that should result in a cathartic experience, for the actors and viewers alike… (”,)
Dear Captain dear
Domo arigato for the umpteenth thousand time!
You’re much lurved..
Cheers..
i echo your every word, dear Tangee (”,)
thank you from the bottom of my heart, dear Ms Ockoala, our Lady Captain of this Ship-of-Love-for-the-Geun-Geun-couple, for your undying love for our Geun-Geun couple such that you continually cater to our addiction to them with such wonderful stuff that you found despite your busy life, i’m sure… (”,)
thanks for this..it’s really entertaining…especially with sun joon and yong ha..where’s my JAESHIN?????????
hehehehehehe..good job…..keep it coming…..
more more more….addiction is getting deeper…
Yes where’s Jaeshin???? LoL. Anyway loving this so very much thank you for sharing and translating Koala!
Oh this is so beautiful,got the crack,omo LMAO.god now I.WANT.THEM.IN.SAEGUK.but will make it future saeguk(is there any?who cares because I say so)we would bring the beautiful and sweet and romance saeguk with lots daebak then add future scene as a kiss that hotter than alley kiss oh as a treat there’s bed scene*caugh*take off curtain*caugh
My dear erika
you are so genuinely cute…. he he he… me grinning from ear to ear… let’s hope your wish will come true.. yes that too “””there’s bed scene*caugh*take off curtain*caugh””” he he.. LOL
cheers…
zillion times agreed… for that *caugh*take off curtain*caugh* bed scene… LOL…
hehe…Erika and Tangee, both of you are so adorable… (”,)
i agree totally with wanting the Geun-Geun couple in a sageuk asap but…

and i personally appreciate the writers and directors more if they are able to achieve that with just the right amount of skinship…
not too much, such that nothing is left to the imagination…
or too little, such that viewers are left frustrated…
with a CEREBRAL slant/angle in transmitting the multi-faceted messages/emotions/thoughts BEHIND the actions that drive the storyline,
that promotes deep reflection, evaluation and assessment of what is being transmitted, rather than a simple SHOW AND TELL,
a portrayal that engages the hormones more than it engages the mind… (”,)
it is a delicate balance, requiring masterful and artful handling, for an execution that should result in a cathartic experience, both for the actors and viewers alike… (”,)
after all, there is a saying :
the sexiest part of the human body is the MIND *wink* *wink*
wow! so cute… I really like it..keep it Up ^___^
OMG, this is fantastic!! I was laughing like a loon “watching” this ^O^

Totally hilarious fanfic! Oh, may I suggest that this kind of fanfic, mv etc be given to JGS’s management company…who knows he might consider this as his next project. Well, if he can assure MGY to accept the role of MR in M3, perhaps he can actually give hints to the management or the production company to do another project with MGY.
Anyhow, is there Part II to this? Coz I just can’t get enuff!! LOL. Keep it coming please..with lots of thanks in advance. *wink*
cute! although a love triangle with mickey would have been good, too.
Luv ur creativity and imagination. Totlally enjoyed it and hope you keep it up as I am pro geungeun. Wishing that in real life they will be a couple! I think they are so perfect for each other.

What a wonderful idea to make a sci-fiction movie with JGS and MGY!
Keep it up, I will be waiting for more GG stories.
They are perfect together.
I didn’t expect Yunchun to appear in this…it made me laugh so hard trying to image Yunchun as a “master.”
actually Lilly, FYI it is not “Yunchun” as you typed it but it should be “Yuchun” or Park Yuchun… (”,)
