"Marry My Husband" Quotes That You Can't Get Enough Of

Marry My Husband is a fun and interesting drama, even though it has some similarities with "Perfect Marriage Revenge." I never thought of Na In-woo as a leading man before, but he really impressed me in this role. He has been in many Kdramas, but this one made me see him differently. Song Ha Yoon is a great actress. She was so sweet and innocent in Fight For My Way, but in this drama, she is so evil and annoying. Park Min Young has improved her acting skills. She's getting a lot of compliments from Korean netizens too. This is a great comeback for her.

"Marry My Husband" Quotes

I can’t remember the last time I was happy. So why do I miss it so much? (Jiwon)

The path you know isn’t the only one. There are other paths. That path could be better. (Nam Hyeon)

("Marry My Husband" starts with a scene of pink and white
The cherry blossoms in their glory, a symbol of delight
They mark the dawn of springtime, the season of rebirth
They bring along the blessings, the goodness and the mirth

In the first episode we meet Kang Ji Won, a woman full of sorrow
A taxi driver takes her to a tunnel, promising a better tomorrow
She leaves behind the darkness, the sadness, and the pain
She enters a wonderland of flowers, a paradise of gain

We later find out the driver was her father, who saved her from her fate
He gave her a second chance at living before it was too late

The cherry blossoms were a sign that Kang Ji Won would find her way
They showed her that there's more to life than what she had that day
They taught her to appreciate her existence, to make it count, and shine
They reminded her that life is precious, and it won't repeat a second time.~)
