Utilizing the time travel genre, which was the norm at that point, the drama continues with the story of King Taejo and King Gwangjong of the Goryeo Line. The drama was interesting because of the intertwined relationships of various characters to the point where it was necessary to sort out the relationships between characters as well. The drama stars IU, Lee Joon Gi, Kang Ha Neul, Nam Joo Hyuk, Ji Soo and EXO’s Baekhyun.
Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo starring IU, Lee Joon Gi and others:
Since its release in 2016, the drama has been garnering a lot of love and attention for its unique love stories between the main characters and the supporting characters. Lee Joon Gi and IU show warm and mysterious love that sprouted in the middle of the battle for majestic power during the Goryeo Dynasty making watchers go gaga over their enthusiastic acting and chemistry, making them keep an eye out on every move that they make. The 4th Prince Wang So (Lee Joon Gi) recognized as the most tsundere (Japanese term for cold on the outside but warm-hearted on the inside) individual in drama history has had a miserable childhood owing to the scars he had as a kid brought about by the envy of his mom, Empress Yu, and keeping in mind that covering his injured face with a mask was important to him. He survived a wide range of personal battles until he rose to be a king. He captivated watchers with his reluctance to sell out the trust of the people who had faith in him and his straightforward appearance as he had fallen in love.
Why do the fans want season 2 of Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo
The drama brought out many emotions for the fans as they saw IU’s character fall in love with Kang Ha Neul’s character initially because of his soft-hearted personality. She eventually falls for Lee Joon Gi’s character despite how much they hate each other because as they say, ‘hate and love are separated by a thin line.’ The drama ended with Ha Jin going back to the present time after dying as Hae Soo, leaving her daughter and her love behind in the historical times. Despite losing memories about her life, she gets emotional as she sees Wang So’s portrait one day. Seeing this, fans wanted to see them back in Season 2 as they did not share much of a romantic on-screen storyline.
With many character storylines, we understand that it is hard to concise all of their stories even in 20 episodes. The demand is aplenty but the makers have not confirmed if there will ever be a season 2. The actors, however, are for the sequel, keeping the fans' hopes up that one day, they’ll receive what they want.
