Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo (Korean: 달의 연인 - 보보경심 려; Hanja: 달의戀人－步步驚心 麗; RR: Dar-ui yeon-in - Bobogyeongsim ryeo) is a South Korean television series based on the Chinese novel Bu Bu Jing Xin by Tong Hua. It aired from August 29, 2016 to November 1, 2016 on SBS every Monday and Tuesday at 22:00 (KST) for 20 episodes.[1][2][3][4]

Despite its ensemble cast, extensive publicity and US$13 million production budget, the series only averaged single-digit audience rating of 7.59% in South Korea and received criticism for its directing and acting.[5][6][7][8] A commercial failure domestically, it drew a more favorable response in other parts Asia.[9][10][11][12]

Plot

During a total solar eclipse, a 25-year-old 21st century woman, Go Ha-jin (Lee Ji-eun), is transported back in time to Goryeo Dynasty. She wakes up in the year 941, in the body of Hae Soo and there, she encounters the many royal princes of the ruling Wang family. She initially falls in love with the gentle and warm 8th Prince Wang Wook (Kang Ha-neul), and later Wang So (Lee Joon-gi), the fearsome 4th Prince who hides his face behind a mask and is given the derogatory label "wolf dog". Meanwhile, rivalry and politics ensue among the princes, in a fight for the throne, as Hae Soo finds herself unwittingly caught between it all.

    • Father/father-in-law: King Taejo
    • Mother: Queen Jeongdeok (who is also the mother of Wang Eun & Wang Jung's wife)
    • Mother-in-law/step-mother: Queen Shinjeong (who is also the mother of Gwangjong's wife Queen Daemok)
    • Husband/half-brother: Wang Wook
  14. ^ For creative license; Wang Eun's actual wife is Princess Heungbang. As per Taejo's half-sibling marriage policy, her heritage is thus:
    • Father/father-in-law: King Taejo
    • Mother: Queen Shinmyeongsunseong
    • Mother-in-law/step-mother: Queen Jeongdeok (who is also the mother of Wang Wook's wife Lady Yoo (see above))
