A fierce showdown is set to unfold between Kang Tae-oh and Jin Goo.
MBC's new Friday-Saturday drama 'Moon River' (written by Jo Seung-hee, directed by Lee Dong-hyun, planned by Kwon Sung-chang, produced by High Zium Studio) has released its third teaser video, capturing the intense rivalry between Crown Prince Lee Kang (played by Kang Tae-oh) and Chief State Councilor Kim Han-cheol (played by Jin Goo).
The teaser video reveals Lee Kang, with a determined look in his eyes, burning with vengeance against Kim Han-cheol, who ominously warns him in return. Lee Kang's statement, "After all, the Crown Princess is the daughter of the Chief State Councilor," hints at Kim Han-cheol's unchecked power, manipulating even the royal family to his will.
The teaser suggests that Kim Han-cheol may be linked to the dethronement of the Crown Princess, whom Lee Kang loved, as well as the death of Lee Kang's mother, sparking curiosity. Kim Han-cheol's ominous remark, "She bothers me," directed at Park Dal-i (played by Kim Se-jeong), who bears a striking resemblance to the Crown Princess, further heightens the tension.
In response, Lee Kang declares his strategy against Kim Han-cheol as a "frontal breakthrough," indicating his determination to confront him head-on. Kim Han-cheol, in turn, is prepared to use any means necessary to achieve his ambitions. The unfolding story of their past and the climax of their conflict draws attention.
The contrasting charisma of the fiery Lee Kang and the cold Kim Han-cheol creates an overwhelming sense of immersion, stirring curiosity about the intense rivalry that will shake both the palace and the viewers.
'Moon River' is a fantasy historical drama featuring a romance between a crown prince who has lost his smile and a merchant who has lost her memory, involving a soul-switching twist.
The drama is set to premiere on October 31st at 9:50 PM on MBC.
