Official Trailer of Marry My husband

synopsis of Marry My husband

Kang Ji-won witnesses her husband, Park Min-hwan, in an affair with her close friend, Jung Su-min. Tragically, Kang Ji-won is later murdered by Park Min-hwan. However, she somehow travels back ten years in time, determined to seek revenge. With the assistance of Yoo Ji-hyuk, the manager at the same company, she begins her quest for vengeance.

This seems to fall into the romantic comedy genre, with hints of fantasy due to the time-travel element, taking us back a decade.

Behind the Scenes of Marry My husband

  • It appears that the controversy over the romantic association between the lead actress, Park Min-young, and a criminal could become problematic. Even if she insists on being unaware and tries to portray herself as a victim cosplaying, Park Min-young’s involvement in the situation might raise concerns. Moreover, recent high-profile cases in South Korea, such as the Nam Hyeon-hee-Jeon Cheong-jo case, could add to the pressure.
  • It’s been reported that she lost up to 37 kilograms in weight during the initial stages of the drama to portray a terminally ill cancer patient. Whether this affected her appearance or if she intentionally altered her face for the role is unclear, but she seems different from the Park Min-young we knew before.
