Ji Soo, Kim So Hyun, Lee Ji Hoon, And Choi Yoo Hwa Are Entangled In A Sad Love Story In Poster For "River Where The Moon Rises"

KBS 2TV’s new Monday-Tuesday drama “River Where the Moon Rises” released a new poster with the four lead characters!

A reinterpretation of a classic Goguryeo folk tale, “River Where the Moon Rises” will tell the famous love story of Princess Pyeonggang (Kim So Hyun) and On Dal (Ji Soo).

On February 4, a poster was revealed with these two along with Lee Ji Hoon, who will play Go Geon, a top elite general of Goguryeo, and Choi Yoo Hwa, who will play the enchanting Hae Mo Yong. The poster, which simply features their four faces, highlights the potential of the actors to deliver the story with just their gazes.

Pyeonggang and On Dal catch one’s eye first because of their tearful expressions. Although they are looking towards different directions, they have the same expression on their faces. It’s as if they’re suggesting the sad love story that is to come.

All there is to the original story is that princess Pyeonggang marries the fool On Dal, who becomes a general and fights for Goguryeo. But the poster raises the question of what more must have happened in their tale of love to make them cry like so.

Their love story will become even more eventful as they get involved with Go Geon and Hae Mo Yong. Go Geon and Hae Mo Yong are both characters that pursue their interests in Pyeonggang and Go Geon, respectively, in a direct manner. Their gazes have a level of intensity and sadness that hint at their yearning for what they want and their pain for knowing what they can’t have.

The chemistry between the four individuals stands out despite the unique atmospheres exuded by each actor. Anticipation is rising for how the drama will depict the additional elements to the commonly known story of Pyeonggang and On Dal.

“River Where the Moon Rises” will premiere February 15 at 9:30 p.m. KST.
