Final Set of Lighthearted BTS Stills from Nice Guy

So cute! So so cute! How can a random stabbing scene shoved into an otherwise brilliantly scripted drama not totally ruin the flow, and then once we see the BTS pictures, actually make me appreciate it more? With Nice Guy over and done with, I’m actually quite mellow about it ending and don’t have that rabid feeling of loss and despondency that I usually get when a drama ends. Nevertheless, seeing these final batch of BTS stills released by KBS is still such a wonderful treat, and my favorite is the one above when Maru embraces Eun Gi at the intersection while he takes a knife to the side courtesy of the rogue agent lawyer Ahn. What’s beyond hilarious is seeing how giddy Song Joong Ki and Moon Chae Won are between takes, whereas Kim Tae Hoon is still in character and being all bad-ass and evil.

What struck me during the entire filming of NG is how lighthearted the mood is on the set, with picture after BTS picture showing the cast goofing off. The drama really benefited from tight writing from Lee Kyung Hee that allowed the actors to understand their characters and have time to pull out the performance they need at each juncture. I think my ability to let this drama go probably does stem from its narrative completeness, so in the end I feel gratified that this journey is done and don’t have any lingering needs or regrets. Would I like to see EunMa babies? For sure. Do I feel cheated out of a boating scene? Definitely. Would I trade either for some fan service scenes that might ruin the flow of the drama? No. And for that I remain grateful that Lee Kyung Hee stuck to her guns and managed to give her OTP a happily ever after that was sweet and meaningful.

      • At first when I saw the X's on your translation, I was thinking "Kisses!" which made me LOL at the turnabout from how we met SEG!

  • *sigh*
    Thanks for the extended collection of nice faces.
    So nice to see MCW smiling a LOT.
    I agree that it ended when it needed to and I feel satisfied with the whole story.
    I will miss seeing SJK's beautifulness, but if IMY does what I hope it does: Put YESH! on my screen. That will fill the pretty void.

    Dude- Doesn't My Joong ki have a major Park Shi Hoo 'do in the 3rd from the bottom photo?

    • Yoo Seung Ho is soooooo perfect to fill the Song Joong Ki void. The next few weeks are going to be so satisfying.

  • Thank you for posting this pics!
    It was such an amazing drama! I think I will rewatch it sometimes.
    Perhaps it seems to be a dumb question. And I know I read this before. But what does BTS mean?

  • I do miss them but I'm already looking forward to seeing what MCW and SJK pick next....I really hope MCW picks a fluffy romcom nxt!!

    • Wanna see MCW on badass mode again well may be action drama but rom-com is a must for her too (no more melo dear you need a rest). I love her smile so action rom-com should be good. What a pity the timing is not right if only she was cast in Secret Agent with JW I will super happy.

  • thank you for these! it's nice to see so many smiling faces under NICE GUY

    I don't plan to watch IMY but will tune in only for my baby Yoo Seung Ho ^ ^
    can't wait for Park Si Hoo .. counting my minutes....tick tock...

  • I miss NG! I love that the cast gets along well behind the cameras as well. I am so happy that I stumbled upon this drama. I have sworn off kdramas since nothing ever held my interest long enough. But NG brought me back to loving it. I hope that something good will come up soon. I will swear off melos since NG, for me, is enough for now. I will forever love SJK and MCW because of this series. I wish them more success and hope to see them in future projects together.
