its going to be called Mary STAYED OUT ALL NIGHT, its based on a manga. Comes out in NOVEMBER??


If initial reports are confirmed, Jang Geun-seok — a hot commodity these days — may soon be back on television in his next project. It's an adaptation of Mary Stayed Out All Night [??? ???], a manhwa that comes from the creator
of Full House's original manhwa.


Jang had planned for his next role to be the movie adaptation of You're My Pet, but due to production delays on that project, he may well be back in a drama first. Note: This article talks about the casting as a done deal, but others are saying Jang is "a strong possibility." I'd say take it all with a grain of salt.

Jang's management was initially reported to say, "He is planning to return with the dramaMary Stayed Out All Night in November. The character and script haven't been decided in concrete detail yet, so he is preparing slowly, and will try hard to show a different appeal in this role."

A subsequent article backtracked and said, "He is looking favorably at the role."
Mary Stayed Out All Night deals with a woman (the titular Mary) who decides she is through with dating, but then strikes up a romance with a "dangerous-looking but charming" death-metal band vocalist. A "lively, upbeat" love triangle develops with a third character, a "perfect type" of man who's got it all goin' on in terms of looks, skills, personality, and family background.



Jang Geun-seok just played a pop group vocalist in last year's hit drama You're Beautiful. He'll again play a musician here, albeit a harder-edged rocker than the idol star of the previous series.

This project will be a co-production between Korea's KBS Media and Japan's ACC Korea and will be written by In Eun-ah, who wrote the drama phenom Goong and the cotton-candy-sweet Love & Marriage. A director has yet to be confirmed. There are a few stars in contention for the Mary role, though we haven't been given any hints thus far.

Jang Geun Suk and Moon Geun Young in a drama?
by nanunmaro on September 9, 2010 at 2:53 am




It was revealed today that Moon Geun Young is currently considering the role for the upcoming KBS miniseries "Mary Skipped the Curfew" for which Jang Geun Suk has already been confirmed for. Moon Geun Young's agency revealed, "Her musical "Closer" ends on October 10th. Because of conflicting schedules, she is unable to decide whether to partake in the drama." They added, "In addition, she has also received several requests to appear in their respective dramas. She will consider carefully about her next project." "Mary Skipped the Curfew" is set to air in early November so filming has to begin by early October. The drama is based on a story from popular manga author Won Su Yeon, who also wrote the manga that successful drama series "Full House" was based on. So far, Jang Geun Suk is confirmed as the protagonist and only the supporting actress remains vacant.

Jang Geun-seok plays another musician in new drama
by javabeans | September 9, 2010 |

This information had come out earlier as a possibility, but now it's confirmed: Jang Geun-seok will be returning to television in the KBS miniseries Mary Stayed Out All Night, which is based on a manhwa that was written by the same creator of the Full House manhwa.

Although the character was originally described as the vocalist of a death metal band, now he's been tweaked to be a free-spirited hippie who's the lead vocalist of an indie band. His rival in the love triangle is his complete opposite: a perfect type of guy with a good background and prestigious education. For 100 days, Mary will have an "imaginary marriage" (as in simulated) with both guys; the exact circumstances remain unclear but it intrigues me.

Jang Geun-seok said, "Because Mary Stayed Out All Night is about music, I felt more burden in choosing it. I thought that I might be fixing my image with musician roles. [But] I read the synopsis and script and found it so fun that I was strongly drawn to it. In particular, I grew more and more attached to the character of Mu-gyul, who lives a bohemian lifestyle. Living a non-mainstream life, he has pain from his childhood that he tries not to show on the outside, and I found him very human and appealing."

For the lead role of Mary, rumors popped up recently that Moon Geun-young was considering it, but no decisions have been made. It would be lovely to see her in a romantic comedy, though.

Writing the drama will be Goong and Love & Marriage's In Eun-ah, while directing is Hong Seok-gu of last year's lauded short drama Kyung-sook, Kyung-sook's Father as well as the inaugural Drama Special episode, Red Candy.

Mary Stayed Out All Night is planning for a November premiere.

Moon Geun Young confirmed for "Mary Skipped the Curfew"
by nanunmaro on September 12, 2010 at 11:27 pm
The speculation that the Geuns (Jang Geun Suk & Moon Geun Young) will co-star in "Mary Skipped the Curfew" has been confirmed. "Mary Skipped the Curfew" is scheduled to air on November after KBS "SungKyunKwan Scandal". According to the publisher agent, "Moon Geun Young will play the part of Mary Wee, a daughter who endures through the hardships of life after her father's business failure. Mary is an innocent and optimistic feminist". In the script, Mary is in a 100 day two-way virtual marriage with a broke, indie band lead vocalist Kang Moo Kyul and with rich, charismatic, successful Jung In. Won Su Yeon's original work of the same title revolves around Mary, who is in a virtual marriage with two men. One is a rocker with a robust yet amiable personality while the other one is a guy who grew up romanticizing a relationship with Mary. Small changes but the latter rendition appeals to our generation. Moon Geun Young replied, "There has never been a similar story and the characters are very fascinating. Although I'm nervous of being in an virtual marriage, I'm very excited to personify Mary", describing her thoughts on the drama. She added, "Just like how the characters in tv dramas give hope to Mary, I'll try my hardest to act as a catalyst for the viewers' hopes, dreams, and memories."
