When I said I was yet to become obsessed about Nice Guy earlier this week, when only six episodes had aired, I am now officially obsessed with this drama after watching episodes 7 and 8. Those two episodes were killer awesome in taking me deeper into the characters and more importantly, making the characters dig deeper into themselves and make tough decisions. I don’t like it when the narrative stalls because characters are running in circles rehashing the same issues over and over, or else simply standing still. NG is an efficiently chugging train that just entered a part of the journey thrilling with impending hairpin turns and glorious vistas out the window. I never put Jae Hee’s pictures topping any NG post because she is hideous to be inside and out, but Park Shi Yeon is glorious and her performance as Jae Hee is the stuff that I hope she’s recognized at year end awards. She is emotive without overacting, scary but pitiful, a lost tigress who lives on slippery sand. I detest her character to the core, but I adore Shi Yeon’s performance. Even after Coffee House when I changed my mind about her as an actress, it was never to this extent. Similarly Moon Chae Won is turning in by far my most favorite character and performance she’s ever taken on. Both leading ladies are holding their own against Song Joong Ki, and together the three of them are magnificent to watch.
Written preview for episode 9 of Nice Guy:
On their first trip together, Maru and Eun Gi spend time with each other. Eun Gi tells Maru that she doesn’t care anymore about what his relationship was with Jae Hee before, she intends to be true to her heart. Maru’s doesn’t yet express how he feels. Jae Hee takes her final trump card to Chairman Seo and during the meeting the Chairman faints. Jae Hee wants to summon help but is stopped by lawyer Ahn, leaving her shaken about what to do. Eun Gi hears from Joon Ha that the Chairman fainted and she’s shocked……….
Picture spoilers:
Starting below are what I think are impossible to ignore picture spoilers about NG – the new hairstyles on Eun Gi (longer and with a slight wave), Maru (combed back), and Park Shi Yeon at the airport this week headed to Busan for the film festival (chic short asymmetrical bob) is as good a proof that we’re about to see a time jump coming up in this drama. I am ALL for it, because that is going to take Eun Gi and Maru’s life a giant leap forward and I can’t wait to see where that will be. Hopefully its cohabiting (which is likely since Eun Gi is shown filming around Maru’s home) and making gorgeous EunMa babies (which is unlikely but a Koala can dream). I don’t think any time jump will show up until earliest episode 10, but probably episode 11. I can’t wait. Also, could Moon Chae Won be any cuter in those BTS pictures below? Not bloody likely. I just want to squish her.

are those MAru and EunGi's kids? really? me can only hope :)
I hope so... if it is true I want to see HJH face
muajajaja
Methinks that the kids may be younger Maru and Eun Gi, as if they had met before. Or else...
On a complete sidenote, Mrs Koala, I was appalled to find this pic of your fave Jang Geun Seok's going the crossdressing path. Oo http://www.soompi.com/2012/09/13/top-10-celebrity-quotes-of-the-week-6/4/
I pretend he's in the army until he returns to normal.
LMAO!
I think he needs to go to army ... I think it will do good for him be out of the spotlight a bit...
OMG! that is my LOL for the day! I miss regular JGS, such a gifted actor but seems to be getting weirder by the day.
JGS performing his duty = clean looks with a shaved head and abs galore. I'm all for it.
Yap... It is time for him to go to the army.
omgee! i totally agree with your idea, i think i'll have to follow suit. :)
Sorry to burst your bubble ladies, but eh, I don't think he is "irregular" now. More like, he was just "acting normal" before and now that he is popular he's freeeeee to do whatever he wants. Lol.
Usually we do not want our k- actor to head to army but this time I am all for it as well. He needs to shake up on his image which is getting too diva, I think
Jang Geun Seok is dressed way to early for Halloween.
EunMa babies?! Oh my~ Just seeing the new look on SJK is making me excited for next week. He looks hot! or at least I can tell that he'll look hot not that he doesn't already... ahh my bias <3 Moon Chae Won always seemed cold to me, but I was so wrong. She's adorable!
I also love how Nice Guy doesn't let its characters go around in circles. The characters generally act in certain ways because they have good reason to, and everyone can actually use their brain to piece together clues and whatnot. Can't wait for next week :D
She's so adorable!
I feel like she's one of those girls that get really comfortable with her costars.
I remember on the set of TPM she called Park shi hoo her oppa and was really thankful for him.
I luuurve her.
PSH called her ''baby'' lol awwnn...
Awwww..... She is just to cute.
and I feel they did have babies because I can see what looks like childrens clothing haning on the line behind her in Maru yard
OMG, if Maru and Eun Gi got married during the time jump and had babies THEN Jae Hee comes back and tries to do her voodoo on my perfect OTP, then I will go nuclear on her ass.
lol....
I think you better prepare to detonate after the next 3 episode....
you won't have the chance because this shipper will have already ELIMINATED her existence on planet Earth (tardis!)
You're right! And perhaps it was a one night cozy and a twin came along? Or it could be choco and jae Gil's....
AWW why cant EG be that cheerful in the drama!
Those pics make me smile everytime I look at them. :) This drama came with a premise everybody was saying "oh so boring, so predictable". But nothing in this drama is boring or predictable. It's simply amazing!
Waaaaa! Ms Koala... :)
Your preview this time really persuasive LOL ;)
I'm not surprised if I turned an addict too to NG. For now I'll be your faithful follower for this drama till more episodes shown, he he !
Keep writing. It's really enlightening & something I look fwd to now everyday. No kidding!
Thanks!
If they got into sexy time and had EunMa babies..id explode into rainbows and unicorns all at once!
what? Whaaaaaaaaaaat?
Are really together?
I wonder.......
Will JH steal everything from EG (aside Maru) and she will live with MR?
How fun will it be, JH kicks out EG just to find out she is living together with Maru LOL
Now, seeing there will have a time jump, where the amnesia plot can fit in? I don't get it!
but if they are their children, why is she not wearing a ring? :(
