Spoiler Stills from the Long Preview for Episode 18 of Nice Guy

Before we even get to episode 17 of Nice Guy, the long preview for episode 18 comes out already. Is KBS trying to cause mass hysteria, because congratulations are in order because it has succeeded. I watched this preview with abject shock on my face, and it took me literally minutes before I could fully digest what I had just watched and made enough sense out of it that I stopped silently screaming in my head. We all know that a wedding is coming up for Maru and Eun Gi based on the previews for episode 17, but thus far nothing has ever happened in this drama that followed a predictable trajectory, so clearly this wedding isn’t going to go off without some sort of hitch. I’ve discussed on Eun Gi regaining her memories not being a straight line towards revenge on Maru or Jae Hee, but more like she’s dealing with the shock and perhaps trying to gain control of her life by choosing to focus on the people who hurt her before. But that doesn’t mean she’s going to be relishing hurting them back, other than perhaps she is seeking some sort of emotional release. The sad part is that Maru would bend over backwards for her, and I wonder if Jae Hee wouldn’t mind handing off Tae San to Eun Gi if she promised to take care of Eun Seok and Jae Hee got Maru back. Too bad this drama doesn’t allow for easy answers and simple trades, and ultimately the actions done at an earlier time will have its commensurate reaction somewhere down the line, and that time looks like it’s here for Maru and Jae Hee. I don’t believe Eun Gi really has that much of a leg to stand on in terms of seeking revenge, but the story was never about black and white views of what happened and the people who did it.

The wedding between Maru and Eun Gi was called off on the day of the wedding when a bombshell news report comes out revealing the former romantic relationship of Maru and Jae Hee. Maru goes to see Jae Hee and claims he leaked the news, and his reason is that he only felt sorry for Eun Gi so he wanted to help her, whereas true love is what he felt for Jae Hee (parroting what she said to him earlier).

After Eun Gi moves out, Maru goes to her room and sits down in the dark, staring at the picture of them. Eun Gi moves back home with Jae Hee and Eun Seok. She finds out from Jae Hee that Maru admitted he leaked the news to call off the wedding. Eun Gi is shocked to hear this.

I am 100% sure this is Maru’s way of extricating himself from Eun Gi’s life once he realized she got her memory back. Prior to learning she regained her memory, he was happy to marry her because that was what he thought she really wanted. Once he learned she remembered everything and was hiding it and wanted to go along with the wedding, he probably realized she was seeking revenge on him and Jae Hee. Therefore it was time for him to walk away so Eun Gi can finally let go of him and move on. His speech to Jae Hee was a blatant lie and he used her words as the perfect excuse for his actions in calling off the wedding. This is my take and I’m going to sleep on it because the mere though that Maru only ever loved Jae Hee makes me want to gag.

  • So are you still predicting a Happy Ending Ms. Koala? I just wish that it's the final week today! Since there are so much leaked for this week. it'd be nice to fast forward now so I could get some rest and not be a stalker!

  • at the end maru and eungi will being together. I hope LKH-Nim will do it.
    although they can't be together now but time will bring them being one.
    I hope.

  • Can't wait so watched "live" without subs... so unpredictable ! So exciting ! So sad ! I hope EG will come to her senses in Ep 18... she can't be happy without Maru ... what is she thinking ??? How is she ever going back to the bliss before................ sigh.... Yes Ms K, the preview is scary ...............

  • To convoluted is really bad ... if the writer had done all this in episode 12 I would have said way to go ... but now overkill and as we have only three episodes to wrap up I think its strange at best ... Wow ... in awe this time ...

    • On the wedding day i thot well they're gonna get married, EG will discover tht MR is dying and expecting a snow-queen-kinda-ending but i should have known its not gonna be tht easy.. did i mention tht i was pretty sure tis time tht maaru was the one who leaked the info to the reporter and the writer fooled me this time.. cant wait for tomorrow let alone nxt week.. can we have all 4 episodes in a go please

  • ohmoooo, maru shi, please be happy
    i hate eungi.. i hate jaehe...
    so please be happy alone.. *crying so hard*
    but... eungi... please forgiving kang maru...
    he really love u

  • really! tonights epi was uber stressful, daebak and intense...

    and seriously, i just wish this two would just kiss and make up... uhm i get that back... how about s*x and make up! sheeesh, it's high time they live some happy moments together cuz you know, the hematoma is still hanging up there, way up there.

  • AHHH DAEBAK!!! I love love love Nice guy!!!! I really wish that Eun Gi and Kang Maru end up together in the end! :/

  • Right now, I'm just crossing my fingers and praying that the writer knows what she's doing... because if all this is covered in Episode 18, that leaves TWO episodes to resolve the relationship between Maru and Eun Gi, and deal with Jae Hee and Attorney Ahn's roles in the Chairman's death, and Maru's hematoma, and...!
