Moon in the Day

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!

Korean Drama '' Moon in the Day '' is a historical fantasy melodrama.

The drama starts off quite good, though, as it turns out, the past storyline proved to be way more interesting compared to the main story, which got more and more boring as it went on. At least, the ending was interesting and didn't follow the cheesy way out. Rather, it gave closure, without messing with the laws of nature, but having a nice enough ending for all of the characters, including the side ones.

The actors and actresses of the cast, moreover, did a great job with their characters and their performances were enjoyable, aiding to the overall enjoyment of the drama as a whole.

So, overall, five out of ten.

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 *.

A touching tragedy about star cross'd lovers basically, featuring reincarnation, past lives and revenge.

The good: Actors have great chemistry, the pacing and story are done well. The historical past lives stuff was the highlight of most episodes; costumes, story and emotions there are so engaging. The story overall is a tragedy but has enough light moments to keep it from feeling overwhelmingly depressing, and the plot is satisfying.

The not so good: I think the emotional connection between the lead characters could have come a little quicker and gone a little deeper. I enjoyed watching the show overall, but wasn't left feeling that "wow, that was so good" feeling.

This one was so frustrating in so many ways but so satisfying in others.

This drama has an amazing story and it has many moments where you won't be able to take your eyes off the screen.

It has just a beautiful script and the narrative and romance are so meaningful, mesmerizing, deep and yet heartbreaking.

The characters are extremely complex, specially in their past life, and due to their tragic fate, they are left wounded but irreversibly tied forever in a twisted love story.

Everything is told in two different timelines and it continues to play us flashbacks from the past so we can understand what happened to them in their past lives. The problem comes when almost in every episode they replay and repeat same scenes over and over again, to the point that gets extremely boring and dragging.

There's way too many filler scenes, characters and conversations that are just absolutely redundant.

I wish this drama would have been made by someone different, it would have been completely different, it actually had the potential of being a masterpiece.

Overall still an okay watch, I enjoyed it and I actually thought the ending was perfectly fitting.
