A drama wouldn't be a drama without unexpected appearances, would it? Whether it was someone the audience never saw coming, or someone we knew to expect but the characters didn't, there's always someone popping out of nowhere to throw everyone for a loop. Here are five times someone turned up out of the blue uninvited in episode two of 'Marry Him if you Dare' ('The Future Choice')!
Shin (Lee Dong Gun) is a do-gooder. He's a strong believer in doing the right thing no matter what and holding himself to the same standards to which he holds the people he reports on. So when he nearly gets caught driving with an invalid license the same day that he has to deliver a report on an idol group member getting in trouble with the police for the same offense, it's no surprise that he's inclined to turn himself in. However, the potential fallout to his career has him second guessing himself.
He finally convinces himself that he absolutely must confess, and is at the police station, speaking to an officer, when he gets a foreboding call. Someone knows everything. And that someone... is a writer on his team at work. It was a dumb prank, but shocking enough to scare Shin out of confessing.
Obviously we had to see someone famous at the major broadcasting company, right? Crayon Pop and Shin Bora's cameo's were funny and perfect to illustrate Mi Rae (Yoon Eun Hye)'s journey through the rabbit hole.
This one was bound to happen eventually. Mi Rae worked not just in the same building as her brother, but on the same floor, just down the hall. She mentioned over and over that she didn't want to run into him. In spite of knowing it was going to happen eventually, Mi Rae was still shocked to see Joo Hyun (Oh Jung Se) at a very inconvenient time.
So Mi Rae's running from her brother and ducks into the first office she finds- and it just so happens to be Se Ju (CNBLUE's Yonghwa)'s office. She doesn't recognize him from her trip to Jeju Island, but he definitely recognizes her, and he seems intrigued. We all knew it had to happen eventually, but Se Ju seemed genuinely surprised to see her turn up at the company.
With all that talk about staying as far away from YBS as possible, you'd think Ajumma (which is what we're calling Mi Rae's future self) (Choi Myung Gil) would stick to her guns and actually stay far, far away from YBS. Not so, as she shows up to personally interfere with Mi Rae's new job. This one gets a double whammy of a surprise factor since Ajumma definitely didn't expect to see Mi Rae buddying up with her ideal man, Se Ju.
For those of you just tuning in, 'Marry Him if You Dare' is my first adventure into the world of time travel dramas. So far, I'm a little confused about the rules- why is Ajumma withholding certain information from her younger self? I can't tell if it's part of her attempt to manipulate the future or if it's some kind of time travelling rule in this universe. All I know for sure is that Ajumma officially imposed a time frame- she can only stay for a certain amount of time, because staying in the past causes her future-self to age rapidly. If I were Ajumma, that would be enough to get me to spill all the beans right away, so there must be something that's keeping her from explaining the whole story to Mi Rae- especially the identity of the person who's going to die.
What do you guys think now that the stakes have been raised? Does it bother anyone else that Yonghwa played Shin Woo in 'You're Beautiful', Shin in 'Heartstrings', and now his rival in this drama is named Shin?
