Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo (Hangul: 달의 연인 - 보보경심 려; Hanja: 달의戀人－步步驚心 麗; RR: Dar-ui yeon-in - Bobogyeongsim ryeo) is a South Korean television series based on the Chinese novel Bu Bu Jing Xin by Tong Hua. It aired from August 29, 2016 to November 1, 2016 on SBS every Monday and Tuesday at 22:00 (KST) for 20 episodes.
Despite its ensemble cast, extensive publicity and US$13 million production budget, the series only averaged single-digit audience rating of 7.59% in South Korea. A commercial failure, it also received criticisms for its screenplay, direction and performances.
During a total solar eclipse, a 25-year-old 21st century woman, Go Ha-jin (Lee Ji-eun), is transported back in time to Goryeo Dynasty. She wakes up in the year 941, in the body of Hae Soo and there, she encounters the many royal princes of the ruling Wang family. She initially falls in love with the gentle and warm 8th Prince Wang Wook (Kang Ha-neul), and later Wang So (Lee Joon-gi), the fearsome 4th Prince who hides his face behind a mask and is given the derogatory label "wolf dog." Meanwhile, rivalry and politics ensue among the princes, in a fight for the throne, as Hae Soo finds herself unwittingly caught between it all.
The first script reading took place in January 2016 and filming began on January 27 in Gangwon Province, with some palace scenes shot at Baekje Cultural Complex. Scenes were also recorded at Cheonjuho lake (천주호) in Pocheon and Ondal Tourist Park (온달관광지) in Danyang, North Chungcheong. The traditional hanok scenery of the Nampyeong Moon clan residence in Daegu was also used as a background. Filming ended on July 1, 2016.
