"Moon River" foreshadows new relationships among the characters with a crimson lotus poster and character posters.
The new MBC Friday-Saturday drama Moon River, which will premiere at 9:50 p.m. on Oct. 31 (Fri) (written by Cho Seung-hee / directed by Lee Dong-hyun / planned by Kwon Seong-chang / produced by Hijeum Studio), is a historical romance fantasy drama about soul switching between a crown prince who has lost his smile and a Bu Bosang who has lost her memory, an 역지사지 (易地四肢) story.
Earlier, the main poster, which captured a pink-tinged current between Crown Prince Igang (Kang Tae-oh) and Bu Bosang Bakdari (Kim Se-jeong), raised expectations, and this time they released a crimson lotus poster with a dreamy atmosphere and character posters that embody the characters' distinct traits.
First, the crimson lotus poster shows Igang and Bakdari living under different skies. Against a clear sky and a magnificent palace, Crown Prince Igang standing there has a face without a hint of a smile, while Bu Bosang Bakdari, sitting among wildflowers looking at the dawn sky, has a bright smile on her lips. Between the two flows a crimson lotus symbolizing fate, making one anticipate Igang and Bakdari's meeting.
In the character posters released with it, you can glimpse the intense gazes of five characters who will richly fill the 역지사지 romance. In particular, the mood in the posters evokes the characters' names and heightens interest.
Acting as regent, Crown Prince Igang, with eyes moist like a river, declares his determined ambition, "Then I'll show you, I am an exception." Bu Bosang Bakdari, with a solemn face bathed in moonlight, says, "Because I saved the life, Nari's life is my concern," leaving the question of who "Nari" might be.
Prince Iun (Lee Shin-young), a tragic prince surrounded by pale mist, promises to be a strong shield, saying, "Do not fire this gun; someday I will be holding these two hands tightly." Under the pouring rain, Kim Woo-hee (Hong Soo-joo) says, "If I were to shoot this gun at someone, it would be to protect them," revealing her strong character.
Finally, Kim Han-cheol (Jin Goo) reveals his charisma beyond blazing flames that symbolize the burning lust for power lodged in his heart. Above all, the line "Now, do you understand? The law of this palace" shows the majesty of Kim Han-cheol, the absolute power who controls the court.
Against the tangled threads of intertwined fates, the stories of the five characters of "Moon River" sharing various emotions are even more anticipated. The series will offer a variety of sights, from the romance of Igang and Bakdari who will share souls and hearts, to the tender love between Iun and Kim Woo-hee, and the confrontation between Igang and Kim Han-cheol over power.
