Celluloid Verdict
Butchered by domestic edits yet adored abroad, this Goryeo time-slip earns its reputation on the back half — Lee Joon-gi's transformation from outcast to king is devastating, and IU carries a tragedy the show never once softens.

What is Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo about?
A woman from present-day Seoul drowns during a solar eclipse and surfaces a thousand years earlier in the body of a Goryeo noblewoman, dropped into a household of princes circling their father's throne. Her friendship with a scarred, masked fourth prince deepens into love just as the succession war turns lethal, and every kindness she offers eventually becomes a weapon in somebody else's hand.

Critic Reviews
Moon Lovers (2016) Review: A Palace Romance Turned Tragic
★★★★½
Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo sends a modern woman into a Goryeo court of rival princes, and grows into one of the most wrenching K-drama romances of its era.
Yes. Be patient with an uneven first stretch; it suits viewers who want a sweeping, painful historical romance rather than a light time-slip comedy.
