WHY DO THEY HAVE THESE ENDINGS?! OMG ><
VERY LONG RECAP on episode 20 -
[spoiler]
BianDang goes back to the house they live in (although he says he doesn't want to be there) where BianDang and XiaoQing hug and stuff while he cries because of his sickness, she asks him "please let me stay with you..." They love each other so much

MiFen then decides to leave in the morning, leaving the puzzle of BianDang behind, she has let go of BianDang, realising the only one who can save him or help him is XiaoQing. XiaoQing goes out with MiFen, MiFen: "you smile a bit, and I'll wave
my hands.." They hug, and Mifen: "I am not as strong as you.." XiaoQing: "The road ahead is going to be very long..." They have this talk where I don't really understand since my mando is really not that great... But MiFen officially leaves, XiaoQing screams: "Ng Mi Fen! Every cloud has its own name! You have to keep striving (jiayou!) Mi Fen starts to run as she hears "BianDang is your boss! BianDang go go go! BianDang is my boss! BianDang go go go! JiaYou! JiaYou (and all this other stuff)" So she is still troubled by her.. little thing for BianDang.
KeLe and GaoShou get together, as GaoShou makes a 'real dinner' for her the first time! He uses metaphors and expresses to her that he likes her, and they have this really cute scene of playing with bubbles... So they are together now!
BianDang sort of goes into depression and keeps sleeping or lying on his bed - not brushing his teeth, shaving or showering. But XiaoQing scolds him, saying "you've even erased ME from your heart..." So later in the morning, she leaves a razor and toothbrush and toothpaste next to his bed and he actually goes and showers.. she blow dries his hair and helps him shave (this is really sweeeet)...
They go out and check his brain again most probably because he has decided he'd rather try and live with the illness and cure it to be with XiaoQing rather than lie there and act like a vegetable before he actually becomes paralyzed! They finish and walk out of the medical building, the paparazzi are waiting there for him and run at him, the paparazzi start asking him all these questions, he starts to feel.. very... I don't know... confused? And screams out "I don't know! I don't know what you're talking about!" And runs away! Then XiaoQing screams at the paparazzi, so they turn to her and ask her about him, she tells them "the doctor says he is fine! that he will be fine! are you happy now?!" and runs after BianDang.
BianDang is about to get hit by a car due to his delusional state and volatile emotions - oh, also including the stupidity of standing in the middle of the road - but I won't blame him for that, HE IS ILL ~ but I really do not suggest a normal person to stand in the middle of the road and not look for cars, okay, well since he is sick, there are the loud voices of the paparazzi echoing in his head, XiaoQing arrives, then runs at him and pushes him out of the way, smashes her head into a pole and sort of gets really dazed. Silence ensues, eerie eerie silence, cut to BianDang's worried face then cut back to XiaoQing's face, then cue really eerie music. So, a white car was about to hit BianDang but XiaoQing pushed him out of the way and got hit herself! You see, I don't understand why the driver couldn't see BianDang, where he was standing was pretty isolated and had quite a bit of space, and yet the car was going to hit him, but then, the driver was pretty careless anyway - he asks if XiaoQing is okay while BianDang runs over and starts screaming and yelling at the car, then the car DRIVES OFF! Yes, DRIVES OFF. BianDang asks XiaoQing if she is okay, she says she is, but she is really... looking dazed and confused.. they hug, and she says "There are so many stars" in broad daylight, something is obviously wrong!
They ride on a motorcycle back to .. er.. I'm guessing where they live, when she starts saying "The sky is so blue, the clouds are so white, thankyou, you are the one who let me realise that the world spins. I want to hold onto you, don't leave me... I love you..." BianDang slows down the motorcycle, reflects, and turns back around and goes back to the bridal shop, they both take wedding pictures, GaoShou and KeLe are in attendance.
Back to the house, the tux and bridal dress are hung up on the big big window, XiaoQing looks at it, and then BianDang comes.. I think she says "no regrets" - but I have no clue at all, she walks off... he turns to her and says "wife." then she turns to him and they hug. XiaoQing: "From now on, I will hold onto you tightly!"
XiaoQing washes the clothes as she pokes at the washing machine while she watches the bubbles and stuff gush inside the washing machine, she didn't close the top part.. then drops of blood start dropping into the bubbles/water (with the clothes there.. ew? I was sitting there thinking about the clothes, I am such a bad member of the audience) She covers her nose and we see blood continuously gushing out of her nose, she looks at her hand and then begins to frantically scrub her hands in the washing machine bubbles - once again, I was not a fan of this scene.
The scene then begins to get shot in black and white, while she runs into the shower, we see blood dripping from her nose, all over her mouth, then we see her sitting there in the shower with the blood running into the drain, LOTS of blood.. its quite scary..
Then a humming of the traditional wedding song occurs - and we see XiaoQing, in her wedding dress, swinging on the.. uh.. swings... She is crying and still humming, she is really sad - I was really sad, it was a very depressing scene. Then she imagines (or we get to see) scenes of BianDang and XiaoQing in their wedding clothing and doing very sweet things - I think its what she sees. They ride the motorcycle holding hands and smile at each other, and eat an iceblock and sort of kiss..
Cut to the morning. BianDang wakes up and finds that XiaoQing is not on the bed opposite to him - as in a single bed that is actually across of him, he realises something is not right, and gets up, walks outside, sees that her dress is missing from the window thing, and then walks OUTSIDE OUTSIDE... and sees XiaoQing lying on the floor in her wedding dress, he runs over "XiaoQing! XiaoQing! Why are you lying on the floor? He holds onto her, "XiaoQing! XiaoQing!" starts screaming "XiaoQing! Your body is so cold!!" And tests if she is still breathing, and if her heart is still beating.. He also starts furiously rubbing at her arms to make her warm again, I feel sorry for this couple. "XiaoQing! Wake up!" (This is paralleling LOVE CONTRACT HARD!) "XIAOQING!" He holds onto her better, hugs her around the shoulders and cries, oh it is very sad seeing Mike cry

So he keeps crying, he starts humming the wedding tune, "WAKE UP!! You've already married me! Wake up! You've already maried me!" and holds onto her hand... He turns her and kisses her on the lips...
Cut to the scenes of their happier times, the masks, the scene in front of the supermarket, the zoo, and confession from XiaoQing to Bian Dang "I like you, i want you to kiss me..", the scene where they are brushing their teeth, the scene where they catch flies/mozzies (not too sure), the scene where BianDang gives her 'wings' in the shadow, and this voiceover of XiaoQing with the "I'm flying, catch me!".
Cut to another scene, the river, there are photos and rose petals flowing down the river, BianDang has hung the wedding clothes up on a tree and I think theres a swing on the tree trunk too, we continue to see the petals running down the river. Theres XiaoQing's voiceover "From the moment you looked back at me, I already took that as meaning that this was forever.. I want to hold onto you, don't ever leave me... I love you..."
Now BianDang is sitting alone at the beach, there are photos in the shallow water, photos of BianDang and XiaoQing, BianDang is in white and just stares out at the wide wide beach... then he imagines the times (or either he is imagining NOW) that XiaoQing and BianDang were in their wedding clothing and frolicking in the beach, he carries her and they play with water... XiaoQing's voiceover again "The skies are so blue, the clouds are white.. thankyou, it is you who made me realise the world spins.. no matter where you are, I will be with you! Let's get married..."
A wedding dress flies behind BianDang and just plops behind him, then XiaoQing (in white and a bandana) runs behind him as he turns around.. XiaoQing "BianDang! The dress won't fly up! Help me?" BianDang: "if it can't get up, then don't force it. I don't think getting married is important. What is important is the future, as long as we can be together, eating icecream, when we're hungry... we can eat a bowl of noodles (He mentions some people, but I don't get what it means..), when we finish, we can go to the beach and relax, build a wooden house (i have no idea..)... to me, that is enough.." The scene shows them walking hand in hand down the beach, XiaoQing "WOW! That good! Now doesn't that mean we are experts?" BianDang: "Yes, really that good!" (He says it like she said it during their 'alien/human' war of kissing in front of the boy/girl toilets) XiaoQing: "YAY! Then we are experts! (She actually says GaoShou)" Then they slowly fade from the beach..
The scenes begin to show all their sweet scenes again - the mozzie scene and stuff. I think it is the same as the OPENING scene of the FIRST episode.. so BianDang's voice over says "Honestly, I really want to be beside you, hitting mozzies, sneakily kissing you, touching your face.. at that time. Meeting you was the most beautiful thing that happened in my life..." then it ends with the scene with them playing around with each other's faces where MiFen tells him to stop playing and they turn around while grabbing at each other's faces and distorting their pretty looks.. then the screen goes white and says "The end."
[/spoiler]
Anyway... MORE of my thoughts on the final episode:
[spoiler]
For some reason, I don't think BianDang died... I think he lived on and kept her in his heart while he just waited for his time to come, the scene of them strolling down the beach was probably a figment of his imagination while he feels like she is forever with him, just like she said.. "I will always follow you/be with you.."
Unlike Love Contract - where I do think they actually died - and they were in the afterlife. I enjoyed this MUCH more than Love Contract.
So, I liked the ending, although her death was abrupt, I think I would have liked it more if BianDang died, but then we wouldn't see BianDang cry - and its more upsetting seeing Mike cry - thats for me though.
Seriously, Mike's character was a bit weak once he found out he was sick, but if I stick to how I perceived the ending, then I thought his character was strong in the end - assuming he doesn't die and he lives for her. But he sort of shuns himself away from the world and builds up a barrier from his girlfriend and friends - the people who who actually would need at a time like this, he should also have sought MORE medical help the moment he found out... But some people are like that, who am I to make judgement.. and later he does go and seek help after XiaoQing wakes him up from his ignorance.
I cried a fair bit towards the end.. even thought I fully criticised the blood dropping onto the washing machine bubble thing.. I thought It'll be more effective if she was just in the bathroom .. or washing her hair or something --> but thats my 2c.
SOME FLAWS I FOUND IN THE EPISODE..
How, the hell... can you NOT go to the doctors/hospital after you get hit by a car and smack your head into a pole.. how can your BOYFRIEND not have the brains to take you to the doctors - it is a sane and conventional thing to do. MAYBE if they had gone to the hospital, they could have found help - lets say there was a blood clot in her head or something - but she COULD have maybe have found help. But no.. they motorcycle away.. *sigh* I know it's just a series, but seriously, if you get hit by a car and then into a pole - would YOU not go doctors or the hospital?
I found the ending very pretty.. the flower petals and hanging the wedding clothes on a tree trunk.. then the beach scene - it was very serene and reminded me of Stairway to Heaven.. the clothes they wore were also very fitting - it was peaceful and innocent - and we know XiaoQing fill forever be in BianDang's heart.
I foresaw this sad ending! I did! The beginning was far too happy and funny --> They wanted to kill us with that, to make us suddenly go "WHAT THE HELL! HOW COME HE SUDDENLY GETS SICK! HOW COME SHE SUDDENLY DIES!" Thats what I think! I kept praying I was wrong!! But I knew she'd die! I'd do it if I were the writer/director

Just because I know it will piss fans like me off! They should have an alternate ending with more NGs.. I hope they have more NGs on the dvd
[/spoiler]
So that was the end of Marry Me! I will miss the show

I want more Mike.. Oh well..

So this whole not going to have an OST is going to drive me nuts. OK, here's what we got so far:
Opening theme song: Wo Ai Ni by Xiao He Shuo (which maybe one of these days we'll get a full version of).
Closing theme song: Mei Tien Mei Tien by Khalil Fong
Misc: Davit Tao feat. Jolin (sorry, forgot the title)
I also heard that ballad playing every so often and would like to know who sings it. Any other songs we need to know about?
Wonder why they're not releasing an OST. It would have been one of the best compilations. Sigh...
VERY RIGHT! I WILL BUY THE OST IF IT COMES OUT! I LOVE THE SONGS! haha.. I found out what its called

But they don't use THAT many songs.. Its a repeat of the same songs over and over.. so the OST will probably have like 4-5 songs

UNLESS - they put on the instrumental versions which I will forever love them for

They don't have the full mp3 of the song I found.. same as the main song "Wo Ai Ni"! The writers of the show or the people responsible for the music are very slow - they need to release an OST.. the song is called "那一年 " by 陳文華 .. I love it...
那一年 - 陳文華
早在某年某月的某一天
Back on a certain year, a certain month, a certain day...
我把我脆弱的心交給了你
I gave my fragile heart to you..
你卻裝著不懂
You pretended you didn't know...
又笑了一下
And gave me a smile..
點點頭接受了我這份癡心
You nodded your head and accepted my love...
過了多年多月又多了一天
After a few years, a few months, and after a day...
追求夢想把我們拉得好遠
The chasing of our dreams have made us drift apart from each other..
然後和平之下
Then under peace..
我們說再見
We said our goodbyes..
偶而也會頭點當做連線
And by chance, we will nod our heads and make the link/connection
那一年 我現在還記得
I remember that year..
跑在原野上 我們的天真
When we ran ran across the countryside.. we were so naive..
冬天時候一起吃冰淇淋
In winter, we would eat iceblocks together..
在你窗外唱歌我覺得快樂
I was very happy singing outside of your window..
那一年 我現在還想著
I still think about that year..
成年的我們 能不能回到從前
Since we've grown up, will we ever go back to the past?
長大後才發現
After growing up, then I realise..
我心裡每個痕跡都是你
The mark on my heart is actually you...
Just if anyone wanted it.. because I love the song

haha.. LOVE IT!!
