Recap of Long Preview of Mary Stayed Out All Night

Bride between two men at outdoor wedding

I posted the six-minute longer trailer for Marry Me, Mary! (M3) yesterday, and today I’ve recapped/translated the segment. No, please don’t thank me. I needed to do it for myself, because I’ve been watching this trailer non-stop, only taking a break to watch and recap Playful Kiss episode 3. I’m just going to call dibs now, okay? The Geun-Geun couple … Continue reading →

Episode 3 of the Playful Kiss Youtube Special Edition saw the return of even more familiar faces. I noticed that episode 1 was all Ha Ni and Seung Jo, episode 2 brought back Eun Jo, Min Ah, and Joo Ri, and now episode 3 adds Mom and Dad to the fray. Thankfully, having a few more faces around doesn’t detract … Continue reading →

The Playful Kiss Youtube Special Edition has released episode-by-episode synopses. I’ll skip episodes 1 and 2 since it’s already aired. These written previews are quite detailed, and pretty much summarize each episode fully. I mean it, total spoilers, so read at your own risk. Nonetheless, we watch it for the cute, not for the unknown plot developments, right? A reminder … Continue reading →

You know, I could really get used to this. Spending ten minutes a day with Seung Jo and Ha Ni, amusing myself with their life, wishing somehow this could go on forever. Episode 2 of the Playful Kiss Youtube edition reminded me so much of the interlude from the drama where Ha Ni tries to become a better tennis player … Continue reading →

Mary Holds Press Conference

I give up. I give up ever trying to convince anyone that Jang Geun Seok is a man, and a perfectly good actor at that. If he persists in dressing like a tranny without any taste, then who am I to judge. Marry Me, Mary! or M3 held its press conference today for its upcoming premiere next Monday.

This is likely the last trailer for the drama formerly known as Mary Stayed Out All Night, which became Marry Me, Mary!, which I shall henceforth refer to as M3 (thanks for coining the acronym @hjkomo!). It pretty much has one major scene, and that’s it. But oh boy is it a doozy of a scene to just drop in a … Continue reading →

They say that absence makes the heart grow fonder. I say absence makes me a cranky and irascible koala. But I won’t hold it against Playful Kiss for taking a short break and returning to my embrace with the first of 7 new episodes (plus 2 BTS specials) broadcast solely on Youtube. All good things come to those who wait, … Continue reading →

Oh thank god! Athena released a few stills where its currrently filming in Hawaii, which presumably only involves Cha Seung Won and Su Ae based on the stills. I let out a huge sigh of relief – it’s so good to see my sexy ahjusshi Cha Seung Won back on his feet after a prolonged bout of illness. Not to … Continue reading →
