Based on a hit webtoon, “Moon in the Day” tells a chilling and heartbreaking love story that spans 1,500 years. Moving back and forth between the past and present, the drama will follow a man for whom time has stopped after being killed by his lover and a woman who has lost her memories of her past life and continues to “flow like a river.”
Kim Young Dae takes on the dual roles of Han Jun Oh, a well-known top star in Korea, and Do Ha, an elite noble of the Silla Dynasty. Pyo Ye Jin plays the dual roles of Kang Young Hwa, a firefighter-turned-bodyguard, and Ha Ni Ta, the sole survivor of a noble family from Daegaya (a city-state) in the Silla Dynasty.
The newly released teaser opens with Do Ha and Ha Ni Ta sharing a tranquil and romantic moment 1,500 years ago. As the scenes shift, Do Ha’s voiceover states, “It took a long time to stand in front of you like this,” while the faces of present-day Kang Young Hwa and Ha Ni Ta overlap. The teaser takes an unexpected turn when Do Ha, now Han Jun Oh, vows revenge and declares, “This time, I will be the one to kill you first,” as he attempts to strangle Kang Young Hwa.
In the ensuing sequence, Kang Young Hwa assures Han Jun Oh, “I’m the one who came to save you,” as the trailer showcases a tender kiss between Do Ha and Ha Ni Ta. Staying true to her words, the teaser concludes with Kang Young Hwa saving Han Jun Oh from an oncoming car, leaving him in a state of shock. In the background, the narration states, “You and I… It seems like our fates will remain at odds until the end.”
“Moon in the Day” is set to premiere on November 1 at 9 p.m. KST and will be available for viewing on Viki.
