Moon in the Day

A daring production. The cinematography is not extraordinary, but the story and acting are excellent. Basically a drama about Kdrama and the falsity of the image of idols. Once again, the hypocrisy of the Korean public is brought to the screen, a large part of the script being about how celebrities manage to give the pack the image they want. Special attention to details, including the endorsement of soju brands, sweets, vehicles, locations. No cosmetics this time.

The inevitable drink until you drop, which stimulates alcohol sales, then those of hangover cures😂, the media's profit from the scandal at the expense of celebrities, manipulation, etc.

Not even a poltergeist and a firefighter escape from them. The story, quite well written... until episode 12. When it makes the characters, smart and agile, become like in silly movies, many frames with blank stares, the acting becomes theatrical, Until then, it would have been 10 *.

If only I could give more than 10 stars! I've cried a bucket load of tears in the last two episodes, and I do agree that the ending was a reasonable one, but the fan of romance in me yearns for a happy ending and a sweet romance to leave us viewers with. I wish there is a sequel and we can see more of the leads in their new life. I loved the ML in shooting stars, and loved him here as well, he was my reason of adding this show to my watchlist. But the FL was a pleasant surprise, I hadn't seen her before and she performed beautifully, both in her role in the present and historic era. The chemistry of the leads was intense, very convincing and very sweet. I've binge watched this show in two days and I will keep thinking of the story and the characters for weeks to come, I seriously want more of these guys! Something like Forever and Ever after One and Only...

The intensity of these characters is off the charts! I watch a lot of kdramas, but I don't typically expect such intense performances. Both Kim Young Dae and Pyo Ye Jin are knocking it out of the park!

Not only wonderful characters and top-notch acting, but the plot is fresh as well. Reincarnated, devoted, but star-crossed enemies to lovers is kind of a new take on the typical kdrama enemies to lovers trope.

The supporting characters are outstanding as well: the loyal older brother to Han Joon Oh; the loyal assistant to Han Joon Oh; the loyal friend to Kang Young Hwa; the evil, conceited ex-girlfriend of Han Joon Oh; the jealous rival actor of Han Joon Oh. These supporting characters seem to be ALL IN as well!

Thoroughly enjoying this one and anxiously awaiting every episode!

<3 Young-Dae Kim <3

Wow his eyes are captivating. His voice transcends your soul to be held in his breath as he sets you ever soul right into his heart. He's absolutely hilarious when he needs to be and as cool as only he can be. He's definitely La Crème de la Crème of my Favorite actors.

Pyo Ye-jin- Is one of the finer Actors in her time. In this show, she slowly evolves from a tough firefighter to a beautiful loving soul, I love how she can look so plain and yet emit such natural beauty.

Wonderful talent throughout. I was a little confused as to where it was all going at first, but I was able to catch up pretty quickly. So happy to see something a little different.

Extremely happy to see Young-Dae Kim Flex his acting chops. A wonderful Talent!!!

This drama started strong, with an interesting premise, and solid performances from the lead actors. In another life, a young couple is torn apart by tragedy and 1500 years later, many lives before, they reunite in the presente time to find answers in order to have closure. The initial mystery reminded a lot of Goblin's Sunny and Grim Reaper, so I was excited to see this type of story unfold.

Sadly, I don't know what happened behind the scenes of this production because the script it's a hot mess. Each week it was like a new type of narrative being told, too many voices not being able to properly tell the main story. The drama doesn't seem to take advantage of its strong points nor develops properly the main conflict, and it stretches the mystery of the past live way too long. I even dare say they wasted the good chemistry between the lead actors. The dialogue it's unnatural, full of badly built riddles.

The music selected feels generic, it doesn't complement the characters well nor the situations and overall story.

Truly a wasted opportunity to make a really good story.
