'Moon River' draws attention with endings that compel viewers to watch the live broadcast.
The MBC Friday-Saturday drama 'Moon River' (written by Jo Seung-hee / directed by Lee Dong-hyun / planned by Kwon Seong-chang / produced by Haijeum Studio) has endings that receive strong responses each episode. From romance to comedy, it not only takes clear responsibility but we compiled the final scenes with ultra-intense impact that make viewers eager for the next episode.
# episode 1, the identity of the commoner servant Park Dal-i is the amnesiac crown princess Kang Yeon-wol?!
Many years ago, crown prince Lee Gang (Kang Tae-oh) had lived in sorrow after losing the crown princess he loved, and he was shocked when he found a woman in the marketplace who looked exactly like her, Park Dal-i (Kim Se-jeong). But Park Dal-i was the daughter of Heo Yeong-gam (Choi Deok-mun), who had come up from Boryung as a commoner servant and was forced into suicide, and she had secretly come to Hanyang despite her aunt Park Hong-nan (Park A-in) pleading with her never to go, to save that daughter.
As people wondered why Park Hong-nan was so intent on stopping Park Dal-i's trip to Hanyang, the episode 1 ending revealed that the amnesiac Park Dal-i was actually crown princess Kang Yeon-wol (Kim Se-jeong), surprising everyone. Unlike the mischievous, spirited Park Dal-i, the past of the dignified and elegant crown princess Kang Yeon-wol was revealed, making viewers curious about what story lay between them.
# episode 4, I wake up and I'm a commoner servant–crown prince?! the chaotic prelude to a soul switch
Afterward, unaware of each other's identities, Lee Gang and Park Dal-i continued to be entangled and, having survived life-or-death moments together, gradually closed the distance between their hearts. Just as subtle feelings for each other began to bud, when the broken Hong-yeon returned to her place, their sealed fate began to swirl again.
However, when Hong-yeon reconnected them, Lee Gang and Park Dal-i, who had been submerged in water, woke up to find their bodies swapped and were horrified. As soon as they came to, they frantically checked important places(?), and scenes of them screaming after seeing their switched faces and situations delivered bursting laughter with the characters' extremely realistic reactions.
# episode 8, finally confirming feelings for each other! the poignant kiss ending of Lee Gang and Park Dal-i
After many twists and turns, the palace life of the body-swapped Lee Gang and Park Dal-i began, and the two cooperated for Lee Gang's revenge. Even amid that, their affection for each other deepened, but Lee Gang, fearing his own greed would put Park Dal-i in danger, hid it and tried to complete his revenge first. However, when Jim-jo, the key clue in the Gyesa year incident, sought to harm Park Dal-i, Lee Gang chose love without hesitation over revenge and boldly shot Jim-jo to protect Park Dal-i.
Park Dal-i suffered from guilt that she had ruined the revenge, but Lee Gang raised pulses by saying even the revenge was all for Park Dal-i. A calm confession of love followed by a tender kiss showed the sincere feelings Lee Gang and Park Dal-i finally shared, amplifying the emotion.
These powerful endings, which capture both laughter and excitement, increase viewers' immersion and curiosity and deliver a deep resonance. Especially now that Lee Gang and Park Dal-i confirmed their feelings with a kiss, from episode 9 onward the two's romance is expected to deepen, and viewers are eager to see what final scenes 'Moon River' will use to capture many hearts.
Tomorrow (the 5th) at 9:40 p.m. episode 9 broadcast.
