Kim Jae-wook looking mighty fine for Mary
by | November 4, 2010 | 123 Comments

Finally! Somebody looking like a man in this drama! I was beginning to worry. In all of the promotional material up until now, everybody in upcoming drama Mary Stayed Out All Night looked like a pretty girl. Everyone.

Imagine my pleasant surprise when I stumbled upon stills of Kim Jae-wook (Bad Guy, Coffee Prince) looking dapper, handsome, and best of all, not at all like a girl.

What with leads Jang Geun-seok and Moon Geun-young sporting the exact same bohemian-girl look, I was preparing myself for the worst. Don’t get me wrong. I love Jang Geun-seok, but he makes a prettier girl than…most girls. Then when Kim Jae-wook appeared in the posters wearing some weird bastard child of shorts and leggings, I sighed a big sigh. “We’re done for,” I said to jb. “How can I get into a drama where they dress beautiful boys like this?”

Well the drama gods may have heard my woes, because now there’s photographic evidence. I’m back on the bandwagon, people. Let’s go, BUS!

      • 1.1.2 lina

        me too, ready. this is the first drama which all actors and actress on my favorite list. How am I going to survive seeing both of then scratch each other for the girl. Ahh depressing. and Love it.. briliant.

    *giggles*

    I kind of dig JGS’ style, though. *facepalm* And I also got addicted to that stupid song! *facepalms again*

    • 2.1 may

      LOL. *facepalm*

      I do too…(^.^)

    • 2.2 guizy

      LOL

    • 2.3 staples

      I actually like his style too! (except the hair)

      • 2.3.1 Rina

        I didn’t notice the hair until I started reading the comments – I think he looks handsome and the hair doesn’t bother me as long as I don’t look at it from the top (swirl).

        For a businessman, he had some really questionable fashion in the preview/promo posters. At least now it’s believable. I was almost scared that they would have him wear a suit like the purple suit he wore in Bad Guy!

    • 2.4 blue

      don’t worry, you’re not alone. *facepalms myself too*

    • 2.5 Rina

      You’re not the only one…that was stuck in my head the other day :)

  3. Shelley

    I don’t like the hair…. Looks like a pancake on his head……

    • 3.1 cheekbones

      ditto :(

    • 3.2 Melissa

      I didn’t notice the hair! I was looking at his face and then I fainted.

    • 3.3 Teapot

      I though it looked a little like a smooshed swirl cone

    • 3.4 freetimer

      and i was just about to comment it here when i read it just now. for me it looks like some swirl creams on top of a cake. but love his style now better than the poster where he doesnt look like a professional at all.

    • 3.5 staples

      agreed! he looks like a mix between Elvis and an Elf.

      plus, it makes his cheekbones look kinda weird. His hair looked better in Coffee Prince.

  4. i3rasaila

    Demnit! He looks so delicious~~~ nyummy…

  5. thureese

  11. 11 pohonphee

    It is just me or DB just did fan service that news from MSOAN comes right after something from SKKS. But I’m pleased..

    I giggle reading this article, SKKS is over is not that bad after all, when there’s MSOAN replacing it. Oh My Bus wait for me!!

  12. 12 Gork

    omg he is lookin’ so hot! can’t wait for this to air (though i’ll miss/am missing the joseon crack terribly….)

  13. 13 loveRiLindRa

    same with me, i like Jang Geun Suk..
    but since he is w/ hair long hair.
    it has made me frutated cZ he looks like girL and so pretty.

    aawww~~ Kim Jae wook is so handsome

  14. 14 arivle

    DAMNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!! he looks mighty HOT… :D

    heck I’m back on that BUS too!!!!….

  15. 15 s

    yeah yeah let’s go bus..lol

  16. 16 Blueangel

    OMO!
    I might have to root for the 2 lead guy this time! Drooling over the photo.

  17. 17 Selli

    Maybe Jang Geun-seok will cut his hair and grow a beard halfway through the drama…? That would be cool XD

    I really love Moon Geun-young’s look, though, and Kim Jae-wook looks handsome too ^^

  18. 18 furansizuka

    This! I love his hairstyle here. Looks classy and neat like cebol son is expected to be, and still gorgeous. Yes, I’m ready for MSOAN.

  19. 19 Ojou_Belle

    That…that… man JKS has flown the coop and headed right into the strange , bizaaro limbo where it’s difficult to differentiate between male and female looks!

    Talk about metrosexuality! He looks better than MGY in many of the photos that was posted in the web!

    • 19.1 Ojou_Belle

      Kekeke…I just realized I’m way off topic since it’s not JKS in the photos. Just got a bit overwelmed that KJW is looking mighty fine and manly while JKS is not.

  20. 20 red

    swoon

  21. 21 BellaMafia

    Oh gosh.. definitely mighty fine indeed! And the hair… rarrrr..

  22. 22 qldgal

    ‘lets go BUS’ lol.

  23. 23 E-Kun

    Hot Damn he look good!

    • 23.1 MsRetta

      took the words out my mouth!

  24. 24 KC

    But if he looks so dapper and handsome (which he does omg…such a beautiful good-looking man), won’t we all suffer from second male lead syndrome??? T______________T

  25. 25 ccricket

    smart lookin’ woooot

  26. 26 Anonymous

    Aww, he looks adorable!

  27. 27 müge

    if JGS goes on like his current and weird fashion, there’s no chance. I really can’t stand looking at him.
    also, I’m getting bored to see the second guys as better. do they is delibaretly to meke us crazy? KJW was excellent in bad guy and I think he will win my heart in that drama, too.

  28. 28 camelotprincess

    Let’s go Bus!! with KJW and JKS on it, yeah, let’s go!!

  29. 29 cathy

    handsome , solid casts , hopefully we are going to have interesting script and amazing directing .

  30. 30 Fasiris Fay

    Omg, so handsome and dapper! Can’t wait :D

  31. 31 Renhye

    Yes! You’ve got it right Jang Geun Suk’s character does cut his hair. I’ve seen it in the manga version.
    I dont know when or why but he will.
    Yaaay for manly SUKKIE!!
    I’ll be waiting for that to happen in the series! Can’t Wait! >_<

    • 31.1 Ojou_Belle

      OMG! He cuts hs hair…I just got all excited and flushed! I can’t wait to see JKS in his BV hair or YB hair. Ok, so now I’m in the bus as well!

  32. 32 Rens

    Kim Jae Wook has always been mighty fine even though most of the time he’s dressed in crazy shit. Looking forward to checking out Mary stayed out all night, although the previews and pictures are giving off a cartoonish vibe that I’m not really digging.

    • 32.1 MARZ

      Love the suit. Not feeling the hair, but KJW looks hot all the same. I wonder if anyone in the drama is going to sport the Kang Dong Won winged sweatpants look? I’ll keep an eye out. Hee hee….

    • 32.2 freetimer

      true. just like what he wear on antique bakery interview/promotion. with big hat and uneven long cardigan/jacket. even if he looks like an idiot wearing that kind of clothes he looks good. hahahaha

  33. 33 babyelephant

    i love the hairstyle :)

  34. 34 jeankaycee

    now somebody’s fashion choices is making sense in this drama!!!

    Kim Jae-wook looks dashing as ever!!!
    Hope thru out the run of this drama he’ll be looking that great!!!

    Im already onboard now lets get this freaking BUS going!!!

  35. 35 UJ

    my fav line “Then when Kim Jae-wook appeared in the posters wearing some weird bastard child of shorts and leggings” bwahaha
    second fav line “I love Jang Geun-seok, but he makes a prettier girl than…most girls.” soooo true :D

  36. 36 ichan

    2nd lead syndrome…har har har… Love the name…and I guess I’ll follow this trend too… Since I’m rooting for him more than JGS. Love him in Coffee prince and antique bakery…!

  37. 37 gigoong

    super excited.. i am hoping for a good.. no- better drama ;)

  38. 38 nixxochick

    i think i might be one of the very few who actually like JGS’s look in this drama..he can pull this look better than other people, plus i really like this bohemian/hippie look ^^

    • 38.1 Tam

      I’m with you .

  39. 39 Anon

    My Heart is Beat, Beat, Beat, Beating. Boom, Boom.
    Kim Jae Wook, My Bus!
    Paradise! Oh. I’m crazy now.

  40. 40 djes

    Ohmy I’m so late with that bus song…and this is coming from a person who has a friend who is totally anticipating this drama with every single tweet! hahaha.
    I actually aren’t really anticipating this drama, but with these information I got from my friend, my interest is getting higher day by day.

    And Kim Jae Wook….he always looks cool in my eyes. And fortunately not as pretty as JGS..

  41. 41 moo

    swoon…

  42. 42 ockoala

    Girlfriday, you’re driving that bus, right?

    I call shotgun! I need both hands free to molest KJW and JGS.

  43. 43 lovenyc52

    rawr. that is one good looking man.

    @ ockoala…. can i molest with you… plz?!

  44. 44 okie dokie

    I agree! Thanks for having someone be a man in this drama! Or at least look like one. And the hair, I really like it. I actually find that lots of Asian actors look so much better without all the bangs in their face or long hair. But that’s just me.

  45. 45 hellochloe

    On board! There’s Keanu Reeves right? Right??? You promised!

  46. 46 Amber

    Bus! Hurry up! I can’t wait any longer.

  47. 47 soomp

    shorts and shiny leggings FTW!
    not

    thanks for making me hope again :)

  48. 48 Anonymous

    doesn’t his hair sorta resemble jgs’s in YAB, or is it just me?
    anyway, he’s looking good ^^

    • 48.1 SteamyBun

      No you’re right, it totally does. Although I didn’t much like that hair on JGS but it looks good on him.

  49. 49 Anonymous

    i hope his way of dressing and the hair will not change. i mean let it stay that way till it ends =)

    • 49.1 freetimer

      so do i. but im very looking forward to see how will they dress him in casual look when he’s not out for working. hope its not going to be like the one he wear for the poster. that awfully suck!

  50. 50 goldenflower
