Are you kidding me, drama! Lee Dong Gun in all-black, with Yoon Eun Hye and her rabbity grin, AND a puppy wearing a coat? If this drama isn’t trying to slay us with the cute right off the bat, then it’s succeeded already without even realizing it. I’m not even watching Good Doctor but even if I was I would probably be like “shoo, shoo, get thee off the air now!” Of course this drama isn’t even ready for airing, but if the titular heroine Mirae can time travel then maybe I can shoot myself forward one month and get my grubby hands on this baby. The upcoming KBS time-travel drama with the Korean title Mirae’s Choice or Future’s Choice has now gotten another new English title – the brand spanking mouthful Marry Him If You Dare. First of all, I’m getting massive flashback vibes to another KBS drama with the word Marry in it – the 2010 Mary Stayed Out All Night which had an English title of Marry Me, Mary (which I shorted to M3). That drama was a hot mess though I personally loved it when I watched it live, but the similarity is that the Korean title is totally different than the English title. I don’t dislike Marry Him If You Dare, because that pretty much captures the other side of this time-travel exercise where future Mirae travels back to warn past Mirae not to marry Lee Dong Gun’s Kim Shin. But with a title like Marry Him If You Dare, I’m pretty much 99.9% certain she’s going to take that dare and marry him (again in this new time line). I would have been fine if the English title mirrored either Korean version but I’ll take this title as well, which has a cute punny linguistic tang similar to Catch Me If You Can. In these BTS fan pictures, Yoon Eun Hye is filming with Lee Dong Gun and they are out on assignment when she sees a puppy darting into the road and she runs to snatch it up to safety. I wonder if she’s going to get more future on-dits from her future self so she knows what’s going to happen, other than the constant nagging to stay away from the bad news hot guy Kim Shin and never ever fall for him and other such nonsense. Because it bears repeating once again – girlfriend be crazy not to marry Lee Dong Gun. Or Kim Shin. Whatever – y’all get my drift. Yoon Eun Hye and Lee Dong Gun and puppy wearing a coat arrives on our screens October 14th. Continue reading →
