Moon Lovers- Scarlet: Heart Ryeo

Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo is not a perfect drama. The production was rushed, the ratings in Korea were low, and the editing has rough patches. But perfection is not the point. It is a raw, unforgettable experience. Years later, fans still cannot hear a certain piano note from the OST without tearing up. It is a cult classic for a reason: it understands that the most beautiful love stories are often the ones that end too soon, in the wrong time, with all the words left unsaid.

Thrown into the treacherous world of royal politics, she becomes entangled with the many princes of the ruling Wang family. Among them are the gentle and warm 8th Prince Wang Wook (Kang Ha-neul), who offers her safety, and the cold, wolf-like 4th Prince Wang So (Lee Joon-gi), whose terrifying mask hides a deep longing for affection.
