Na In Woo’s Unexpected Transformation and Lee Yi Kyung’s Career Peak in ‘Marry My Husband’
tvN’s ongoing Monday-Tuesday drama ‘Marry My Husband’ starring Na In Woo and Lee Yi Kyung has hit its peak. Among the cast, Na In Woo and Lee Yi Kyung are outstanding.
Na In Woo, in ‘Marry My Husband’, plays Yu Ji Hyuk, who assists Kang Ji Won (Park Min Young) in seeking revenge against Park Min Hwan (Lee Yi Kyung) and her best friend Jung Soo Min (Song Ha Yoon).
Yu Ji Hyuk is intelligent, physically fit, and comes from a good family background, having harbored feelings for Kang Ji Won since their college days when they coincidentally met. Like Kang Ji Won, he regresses upon learning the truth about Kang Ji Won’s death, orchestrated by her husband Park Min Hwan and best friend Jung Soo Min.
Yu Ji Hyuk assists Kang Ji Won and plays the role of a supporter. He also draws a clear line with the people around him, excluding Kang Ji Won. At the beginning of the drama, there was a sense of dissonance compared to Na In Woo’s image on KBS 2TV’s variety program ‘2 Days & 1 Night’.
However, as the drama progresses, Na In Woo showcases a stable performance, receiving positive responses and fully immersing himself in Yu Ji Hyuk. Particularly, his romantic scenes with Park Min Young are well received.
As Yu Ji Hyuk gains more attention, even his fellow members from ‘2 Days & 1 Night’ are amazed by Na In Woo’s transformation, with Moon Se Yoon praising, “His method acting gives me goosebumps,” and Kim Jong Min expressing surprise, “Have you been acting foolishly all this time?” It’s a successful transformation for Na In Woo, who has even fooled his close friends.
Lee Yi Kyung has been shining as the trashy husband in ‘Marry My Husband. Park Min Hwan not only cheats on his wife with her best friend, but also causes his wife’s death. His stubborn personality causes anxiety for Kang Ji Won even during their relationship, and his abusive words and actions anger the viewers.
What’s noteworthy is Lee Yi Kyung’s perfect villain portrayal. He embodies the detestable character of Park Min Hwan in such a realistic manner.
His acting has led to comments like ‘Is this Lee Yi Kyung’s retirement role?’ showing his complete immersion in the character, marking the peak of his acting career.
Lee Yi Kyung has been more associated with his image from variety shows like MBC’s ‘Hangout with Yoo’ rather than his characters in dramas or movies.
However, Park Min Hwan has propelled him into national recognition despite being a target of public criticism due to playing a villain. It’s a situation where, despite being labeled as a ‘trashy husband’ and facing criticism, Lee Yi Kyung’s enjoying the highest popularity.
