Ji Soo Transforms Into A Passionate Youth Who Fights For Peace In Upcoming Historical Drama

KBS 2TV’s upcoming drama “River Where the Moon Rises” teased a new glimpse of Ji Soo in his starring role!

“River Where the Moon Rises” retells the love story between Pyeonggang and On Dal, who are characters in a classic Goguryeo folktale. Pyeonggang (Kim So Hyun), also known as Yeom Ga Jin, is an ambitious woman who dreams of becoming the first female to lead Goguryeo, and she uses On Dal’s (Ji Soo’s) feelings for her to achieve her goals.

The newly released stills depict Ji Soo as On Dal with frayed clothing and tightly tied hair in his transformation into a simple youth from Goguryeo. In one photo, On Dal cautiously checks his surroundings in front of a fallen deer. He tries to discover what could have killed the deer, conveying his non-violent nature and love for everything on Earth.

However, another still pictures On Dal oppressing someone who appears to be a hunter with just one hand. Easily holding up the person much bigger than him, On Dal’s strength is clearly apparent. Although On Dal is a pacifist, he won’t stop from using his strength to prevent the disruption of peace.

Throughout the stills, On Dal’s powerful gaze remains steady, highlighting his extraordinary presence. Viewers are curious to see On Dal’s role in the future after starting off as a passionate youth who maintains the peace of the forest.

The production team shared, “With his outstanding ability to immerse himself in his role, Ji Soo brings life to the On Dal in the script. Although he seems naive, On Dal is a charismatic figure who steps up when needed, and we’re confident that he’ll captivate the hearts of the ladies tuning in to dramas in the first half of 2021.” They added, “Please wait for ‘River Where the Moon Rises’ while anticipating how the passionate youth On Dal, who has his own firm beliefs, will change after meeting Pyeonggang and how Ji Soo will portray this process.”

“River Where the Moon Rises” will premiere on February 15 following the conclusion of “Royal Secret Agent” and will be available on Viki. Watch a teaser for the series here!
