Here’s our first look at the characters of Mary Stayed Out All Night! The four lead actors — Moo Geun-young, Jang Geun-seok, Kim Jae-wook, and Kim Hyo-jin — participated in the drama’s title and poster shoot on October 6.
I’m not going to complain about Jang Geun-seok’s look here, because I think he’s actually quite pretty — but that’s the thing. All four of these actors are basically on the same end of the feminine-masculine spectrum here. I know, it’s based on a manhwa, and we know that shoujo manga/soonjung manhwas are all about the pretty, pretty boys. Oh well. I can always turn to Runaway to get my manly-men fix.
Jang plays indie-band singer Mu-gyul, who’s characterized by a boho sense of style. Moon plays Mary, whose fashion sense doesn’t seem too far off from Mu-gyul. Is that how we know they’re meant to be? Not only will they engage in lots of comic shenanigans and fall in love, they can swap wardrobes! Meanwhile, the two Kims both sport a more chic, urban style as characters Jung-in and Seo-jun.
Following the poster shoot, Jang said, “I’m happy and excited. I want to stay this way through the end. The shooting atmosphere is wonderful.” He said of the wave of fan-made posters for the drama, “I was amazed at the fans’ interest, and I’d like to give them my gratitude. With the poster shoot being so enjoyable, I hope the poster comes out great and receives a good response.”
Moon said, “The feel of Hongdae [a neighborhood of Seoul] goes well with the drama’s concept, and shooting is fun. Since we’re all the same age, it was comfortable and fun to shoot together. I look forward to the first shoot for the drama.”
Kim Jae-wook said, “It feels like it went by so quickly. Us actors are still in the process of getting to know each other, but we get a long well and were able to shoot satisfactorily.”
Kim Hyo-jin said, “This is the first shoot, and since the atmosphere was so great, I look forward to the drama. I’ll study the character and give my own take on ‘Seo-jun.’”
Mary Stayed Out All Night premieres on November 8.

hummmm. Brown boots and shiny leggins….blah!
Ummm…. I was wondering the same thing!
i was more distracted by the shorts(?) that he’s wearing…. or are those pants w/ leg warmers over them? either way his lower half is ATROCIOUS
must focus on his pretty pretty face O.O
This conversation makes me so happy
I can’t wait!!
lol. i didn’t even realize there were shorts there until you mentioned it. but ugh….and brown shoes with black pants…one of my biggest pet peeves!
hahaha same i didnt see the shorts til then… *cringe* ><
At first, I didn’t notice b/c I was looking at his face, but as I started to scroll down I was stunned at his outfit below the waist.
no shorts cant you people see its a jeans he’s wearing with some kind of leather overpants like cowboys wear( or kinda what cowboys wear)
LoL… I was just thinking the same thing! Seriously, what’s up with that?
noticed that too…i thought he’s acting a “perfect guy”. personally, i thought he’ll look like someone who works at wall st. – signature suit, like someone who stepped-out of GQ. not another “potential rock star looking”.
its not his fault though…stylist, director…script writer. everyone’s concept must blend together.
Over shorts…lol
I thought he looked like a homeless guy. He’s so thin and his outfit’s so…. um…. nvm. I wanna feed him.
Brown boots are fine. I dig ‘em. I recoil back staring at his faux leather skinnies under hugging shorts.
Is someone playing favoritism, promoting JGS over KJW w/ such fashion faux pas? Where’s the fashion police when you need one?
*_*
Why must my two favorite pretty boys compete for the same girl!!!
Who will I like better….hmm…..
sooo excited for this drama!
LIKE! Can’t wait!
meh, i like the fan-made posters better.
They’re just at a poster shoot, that’s not the actual poster…perhaps? Let’s wait and see how the actual poster turns out.
*sets as laptop’s background*
Such a lovely group of ladies… Oh wait.
lol
lols
heh!
ditto!
*oops. wrong destnxn
ditto! *here
I know right? I had actual difficulty figuring out who was male. “Mary” is the most masculine dressed one in the group, and that’s not saying much.
Uh, that’s considered masculine in Korea and Chuno is ‘beast’.
LOL
LOL! JGS and KJW can outpretty girls any day.
hmm…thankfully these are just shoot photos and not the posters themselves (lol I am being biased toward fan-made ones)…but I am so looking forward to this (the girl’s character sort of reminds me of the main girl’s character in Honey and Clover)
I’m looking forward to the drama but I’m not too crazy for the attires. Is that guy wearing shorts on top of leather pants?
I swear I asked myself (out loud) the same question and then laughed (again, out loud) at your comment. The answer, of course, is “yes.” And he’s wearing an ascot.
LMAO the ascot is the icing on the cake!!! XD
Ahaha, agreed! Those pleather leggings and shorts are priceless too.
love it to bits! this is gonna be really awesome
rooting for jgs-mgy tandem!
MGY looks … hmm.
But overall, I am excite
I thought her outfit looked like it was stolen from a grannie…even my grandmother doesn’t dress like that! I did liked her hair.
I love grandma chic. Some of my favorite items are from my grandmother’s closet. Then again, I’d addicted to vintage.
I’m so excited! … I love you, JGS! hahaha
Can’t Wait! ! !
LOVE IT !
MGY’s character looks very interesting here, in a good way. I thought her character would be quirky anyway (being in a marriage contract with two different guys is just crazy) but seeing her makes me think of her being like the Luna Lovegood character from Harry Potter.
JGS’s style isn’t bothering me as much as KJW’s. Really, what the hell is he wearing? Those pants, really…
Haha. Your right, she does kinda give off Luna Lovegood vibes!
The pants are disturbing me.
And what’s with the skirt+redrubbershoes.
what is wrong with the skirt + red rubber shoes? i think it gives off a rly indie vibe.
Not really loving MGY’s look here…On the plus side, both guys look good.
They just want her to keep looking like My Little Bride all over again! She’s 23, make her look her age please….Cinderella’s Sister did a good job there.
love geun suk!!! i think geun suk would have a better chemistry with geun young rather than park shin hye. looking forward to watch this
Sukkie! Kyaaa! Will be bracing myself for late nights!
I was hoping that JGS would have more of a “heavy metal rocker” look to him but I guess not. :-/
Excited about this drama either way.
it could’ve just been me,but I think the guys r wearing more makeup (guyliners to be exact) than the ladies…just saying…they all are pretty
(don’t stone me..I adore both JGS & KJW)
wow…this is sooo great!!! I will look forward to this drama…I love JGS sooooo much! Goodluck!!!
NOBODY TOUCH MY MAN KIM JAE WOOK! hehe.
I am so excited !!! yey
I’m excited!!! cannot wait!!!!!!
OMG Jang Geun suk…Can you please loose the hair! It’s taking your beauty away…ah… I can’t wait for this. My two favorites. It better be good.
OMO i’m soo excited!!…all the actors seem to have chemistry!!…not gonna comment on their clothes…except JGS looks more decent here than he does in some functions where he’s not in character….plus i like my guys pretty
oooh! MGS looks very quirky
JGS and KJW look awesome – pulled off the weird combination of clothing pretty well!
Soooo looking forward to this!
I’m so excited!! JGS looks hot! and MGY is so adorable!!! how come her hair so long already?
still sporting that long hair look. shorter hair is better for him.
Shit, I was all cool as beans for this drama until I saw these stills. The second this cast got together, my interest skyrocketed. Oh lordy imma going to serious second love lead here. But I know the Geun-squared couple can make be believe!
I think the fan made posters are more superior! LOL
I was praying hard that Jang Geun Suk would gain some weight and cut his hair, but…alas…I guess that was too much to ask for. lolll
Moon Geun Young looks hella adorable!
so excited!! can’t wait!!
almost faint!!
i absolutely love moon guen young’s hair!! love the heavy fringe on her. so cute.
for the love of Jang Guen-Suk…i’m waiting for this!!! =)
Jang Guen Suk, your hair!!! TT______________TT
Blah, I don’t really like how “all over the place” they look. Kinda reminds me of Mary Kate’s failed over the top messy “bohemian” look that makes it seem like she just crawled out of bed.
Hopefully, the storyline’s good.
OMO!
Could this be the hottest cast ever in the history of k-dramas?!
??0_o??
Ah, hah. Post SKKS rescue for withdrawal symptoms. The perfect solution! I shall be able to get over the sense of being deprived. There is a K drama fairy watching over our? at least my need. KJW <3.
first impression: the guys look like they’re drug addicts
The clothes are just wrong for this style. Men can dress like this and still look “manly” and cool.
I’m not sure if I can watch this unless they did a wardrobe change or something. The fashion has a lot to do with the dramas that I watch. If I don’t like it, it’s going to bother me through out the entire show and I wouldn’t be able to watch it.
does anybody else HATE jgs’s hair here?
he shouldn’t part it down the middle..and he should cut it shorter and die it black. he looks best with black hair
and he should stop curling his hair!
can’t wait!! But I really wish JGS dressed differently (in the drama and in real life)
EXCITED! EXCITED! EXXXXCIIIIIITEEEED! *THUDx10000000*
Maybe the final product will be more appealing. But the hairdos on 3/4 is -_- … whats with the floppy do?
Then again, mayhaps I’m looking for perfect casting … oh well. 8 Nov it is then before further comments.
and my feet claps for joy!!!!!!
i felt nothing was final until they actually go for the poster shoot or actual filming for the drama but now I’ll just have to wait for it to air!!
without the smile, MGY looks like Sunako in chapter 1 of the manga, Perfect Girl Evolution!
I’m sad that JGS never went back to the hair he had in DoReMiFaSoLaTiDo
I couldn’t agree more!
BAM BAM!!!!! It’s very INTERESTING, oh yeah! (nods & claps)
I love that all of these actors & actresses who wears so tacky, cool, and different styles of Asian clothes way, of course! =) =)
I am VVERRRRYY looking forward about this drama!!!!!
i loveeeeeit!!!! >^^,
i like the poster.. i don’t love it… however, i LOVE MGY’s outfit… she looks really good in it! i feel like mary stayed out all night is going to be a hit. hopefully, i’m right.
Honestly I do not like JGS’s hair style, I guess it matches the character…beside, he does looks “pretty” from the poster. No matter what I will support him forever… can’t wait.
JGS is gorgeous ! Wah, loving how he looks. And MGY’s look is surprising to me, but I’m loving it. (am I in the minority ?)
Yay ! Super excited !
In the manga he had REALLY long hair, and then cut it later on. Maybe the same will happen in the drama?
Either way, I’m happy. This is just the very beginning, no sense making judgements now
