Marry Me, Mary! Episode 9

Jang Keun Suk as Kang Moo Gyul reminds me of how Seo In Guk plays Kim Moo Young in TSHLYE

wow, this drama has really continued to get better in the second half!! first of all, i saw this comment on the streaming site which i agree with, "If we look on paper Jung In is the better guy to get married to and love would probably develop after a while. Mu Gyul is the boyfriend every girl wants: a bad boy with a soft heart. His lifestyle is fine for a musician who's trying to make it. If she was older she would probably play it safe with Jung In. But she's only 23 and she's looking for love not marriage".i honestly think this was such an outstanding episode. Moo Kyul's mother is deciding to move to Paris with her boyfriend leaving her son behind, and totally not caring about her son feels about it. there's a scene in the beginning where he was wrapping paper planes and his mom was there, and she said that whenever her son misses her, he would come over and fly over those paper planes. But we saw from the flashback that everytime he did that, his mom only looked out for him from the apartment window and asked him to go back immediately without meeting him in person or hugging him. then we get a fast forward scene when Moo Kyul was reminiscing on that and has teary eyes of pain, but he couldn't cry it out. i think that scene was so painful. you're so sad inside but it's almost like you've got no tears left to cry.also the scenes when he took Mary out to see sunrise at the beach but got off the wrong one, and got caught by her father, and had to listen to his disapproval again and again and again. then have Jung In came to him to threaten him with the fact that he's Mary's legal husband. and how he tried to confirm with his mother about her opinions of marriage and she responded saying she doesn't have the confidence to commit to someone ever. all of these really messes someone up. you can see immense struggle by Kang Moo Kyul to cope with his own emotional issues as well as trying to win over the war with other people who are involved and have a stake of interest in Mary's life. Jang Keun Suk portrays all these complex emotions so well, and yet so subtly because we can see he grew up with such vacuum of love that he's quite numb to expressing himself properly. HE REMINDS ME OF HOW SEO IN GUK PLAYS KIM MOO YOUNG IN THE SMILE HAS LEFT YOUR EYES AND I SAY THAT TO MEAN THAT HE'S SO FCKIN BRILLIANT IN THIS!
