NOVPUBsun and moon (1)
* Please note that < Sun and Moon> is a fusion fantasy drama set in the fictional Joseon Dynasty, and has nothing to do with historical facts and is a creative fiction.
After the white text message passed quickly, I saw the palace bathed in the blue light of dawn. The drama began with the king receiving the report from the Royal Highness with a meaningful look on his face.
The scene passed quickly after that.
There was a close-up of the images of the princes studying at the Chonghak (宗學) and the face of Lee Bin, who was sitting between them with narrowed eyebrows.
While reading a thick book in his room, he suddenly saw Dohwa opening the door and running out.
‘Of course, the directing is smooth.’
Director Do Jun-hwan once led the romantic historical drama craze a few years ago with a drama about the romance between King Jeongjo and Ui Bin-seong. This opening also stood out for its delicate directing that made good use of his talents.
It was halfway through the drama that the friends who had been watching the opening quietly became noisy.
“···uh! It’s coming out!”
Yu-kwon was shown chopping down a tree holding a shiny real sword rather than a wooden sword.
The classmates stared at Yu-Kwon, his mouth wide open, as if he was dancing with white swords and moving as if he was dancing.
‘oh my god···.’
< Sun and Moon> was a webtoon that even people who did not read webtoons had heard of at least once. Of course, all of his classmates who loved stories regardless of genre suffered from sea otter sickness.
Although it was not revealed, it was true that everyone was worried when they heard that Han Yu-il was playing the character Yu-kwon.
I know better because I liked it.
However, their worries melted away like snow on a midsummer playground as soon as they saw Yoo Il’s first appearance. Where there was worry, pure admiration filled it.
As soon as U-Kwon’s appearance scene ended, the living room instantly became noisy.
“What are your eyes? “Aren’t you crazy?!”
“Wow... hey... Men will fall in love too...?”
“It’s amazing. “Crazy.”
Han Yu-il’s classmates began to express sincere exclamations without caring whether the person in question was around or not.
‘···The atmosphere on set was good.’
Director Do Jun-hwan, who called for cut, even whistled. Yuil thought his reaction was just encouragement to boost morale.
‘I think it was edited better than I thought.’
Yoo Il chewed his tteokbokki slowly, listening to his friends’ comments through one ear.
It was around the latter half of the drama that the classmates who had been delving into the drama became quiet again, talking about how the adaptation was done and how much the characters were modified.
– Brother.
U-Kwon’s face instantly relaxed at Yu Yu-Hwa’s voice.
-Why are you doing that?
– Oh... Brother. Can I borrow Black Lip just once?
– It seems like the number called ‘Han’ is increasing endlessly for you.
Yu-kwon, seeing Dohwa’s sullen expression, smiled and untied the string of the black lipstick he was wearing.
Soon, the shiny black lip was in Dohwa’s hands. Then Yoo Do-hwa smiled and held Heuklip in her arms.
– I will use it carefully, brother!
-···What are you planning to do again?
Instead of answering, Yu Yu-hwa gave a lovely smile.
Yu-kwon’s expression noticeably softened as he looked at such a painting.
Yu Yu-hwa was quite a tomboy.
Yoo Jung-mo, who knows how to never give up once curiosity is aroused, said that she was curious about what Ojak-in was doing, so she handed over a manuscript of a mayor’s report (a type of forensic opinion written after an autopsy of a corpse).
But Yudo-hwa’s curiosity did not stop there.
There was something I wanted to check for myself.
That was the reason she appeared at the graveside late at night dressed as a man.
Because I was talking so hard to myself, I was quickly caught disguising myself as a man.
Lee Bin, who almost mistook Do-hwa for a virgin ghost wearing black lips, spoke out in shock.
-What on earth is this woman doing over there at this late hour?
At Lee Bin’s absurd question, his guard looked at Yu Yu-hwa with narrowed eyes.
– ···It seems to me that they are digging into something.
Dohwa was digging up one of the applied methods needed for an autopsy, but it was too suspicious of an act for Lee Bin to pretend not to notice.
Lee Bin approaches the strange woman and gets caught up in something unexpected.
– Ouch!
When Do-hwa saw Yi-bin approaching to interrogate her, she was about to fall in surprise, but Yi-bin suddenly stood on her back.
It was a scene like a romantic cliché.
-···!!
A sweet scent passed by my nose.
His youthful face and sparkling eyes caught his eye.
Lee Bin’s heart begins to beat rapidly as he looks at the woman who entered his arms without his knowledge.
At the moment when Lee Bin was confused by the emotions she felt for the first time, Yu-kwon, who followed Yu Do-hwa, also found Do-hwa and Lee Bin.
– It’s Dohwa.
When I turn my head to the unfamiliar voice, I see a man hiding in the shadows.
Lee Bin and his guard’s eyes flash and try to examine his face. However, it is not easy to see Yu-Kwon’s face, which has become one with the darkness.
Do-hwa stared at Yu-kwon with wide, round eyes.
– Oh, brother... how did he end up here...
Lee Bin, who was frozen in shock, only then realizes that the woman has left his arms.
– I lent the black lip to my only sister, so shouldn’t I be responsible?
I could see the painting. U-Kwon’s voice was much colder than usual.
‘···I don’t like it.’
Yu-kwon looked at Do-hwa approaching him.
[I always get what I want.]
He lived like that his whole life.
Even when he was noticed by Yu Jung’s mother, who was off to war, and became her adopted son.
Even when I left the palace and approached Prince Im Yeon, who was pretending to be Hanryang.
Every moment passed according to his account.
There was only one being outside of calculations in his life.
‘Judohwa.’
His sister, who is not related to him by a single drop of blood.
But it was okay. It’s like having a little sister.
It was fun to see his sometimes quirky side, and it was very fun to see him different from other Sozers.
However, it was not pleasant at all for the sister to look at a man other than herself.
-Are there any injuries?
– I’m fine...
As he walked back while supporting his sister, he turned his head towards Lee Bin.
His face was still not visible, but his sharp eyes were distinct.
– I was rude at such a late hour.
Anyone would have thought that he was a kind brother who cared for his sister.
However, Lee Bin clearly confirms this. How does he see himself?
-···!
A cold gaze that felt as if it would cut into flesh looked at him.
– In the future, this will not happen again.
That was a clear warning.
A cold warning to Lee Bin.

Tteokbokki fell from the fork Jinwoo Kim was holding.
However, no one thought to erase the red stain on the floor.
“···I tore it.”
Jinwoo Kim muttered.
The friends, who chatted for a long time even after the drama ended, headed home one by one as midnight approached.
【- Sea otter crazy 𝔫𝖔𝔳𝔭𝔲𝔟.𝖈𝔬𝔪
[I felt it the moment Part 1 ended.. This is a masterpiece..]
┗ I hope it continues like this.
┗ Really, there is nothing missing from directing, acting, visuals, and music.
┗ It seemed to be more faithful to the original than I thought.. I really like it.
– I haven’t read the webtoon. Is U-Kwon really that kind of character?
[He’s really cool and his eyes are wide open.. I like him so much..]
┗ Yes^^
┗ At the time of serialization, his nickname was Cheap but Handsome Crazy Guy and Samdolsa.
┗┗ What is Samdolsa?
┗┗ The man who turns 359 degrees
┗┗ Ah
┗┗ Hahahahahahahahaha
– After all, it’s a dukkaal.
[Where have all the kids who cursed gone? Haha, I feel relieved]
┗ ㄹㅇ Where are all the kids who say the casting isn’t that good?
┗ Ha, it’s thrilling~
┗ Han Yu-il is perfect..
┗┗ You seem to be really good at actingㅠ】
As interest in < Sun and Moon> was high, the number of posts on the community was much higher than that of other dramas.
– ‘Sun and Moon’ Han Yu-il, strong first appearance... Pay attention to his cold-eyed acting
– ‘Sun and Moon’ Han Yu-il, “Don’t you have to take responsibility?” K-Brother came to catch Lee Bo-hee
– ‘Sun and Moon’ Kang Hye-seong
┗ Namjoo Lee Bin, right? My younger brother keeps fighting with Han Yoo-il because he calls him Namjoo;
┗┗ Hahahahahahaha
┗┗ The first appearance was strong...
┗ Don’t you have to take responsibility.. clack.. clack.. Don’t you have to take responsibility.. clunk.. clack.. Don’t you have to take responsibility.. clunk.. clack..
And, the response to episode 2, which aired the very next day, was even more enthusiastic.
– ‘Sun and Moon’ Han Yu-il, who subdues Lee Bin with a sword... an unusual relationship
– Han Yu-il, a meaningful smile on the plague spreading in Joseon “Is that true?”
– ‘Sun and Moon’ episode 2 viewership rating 7.1%... showing upward trend
┗ No, Yu-kwon showed up from the beginning to aim for the position of Yu Jung-mo’s adopted son?;; It was different from the very beginning.
┗ ㅁㅊIt was also a deliberate approach to Prince Lim Yeon-gun.
┗ U-Kwon was just playing around with everything;;
┗ Isn’t the wooden sword scene crazy?ㅠㅠㅠ I screamed in my voice.
Episodes 3 and 4 began to show that the plague had begun in earnest.
A plague that is unknown when it began or why it began.
It was a terrible disease that caused those who contracted it to swell pus all over their bodies, vomit bloody phlegm, and die within a month.
Yibin receives permission from the king and decides to investigate this plague with the medical officers. And there, he again encounters Yu Do-hwa, who is disguised as a man.
There were often posts pointing out that it made no sense for a noble family member to dress as a man during the Joseon Dynasty, but the fact that it was faithful to the original work and the fact that it was a fusion historical drama set in a fictional Joseon served as a good shield.
To Lee Bin’s question, ‘Why on earth are you doing this?’, Yu Yu-hwa answers with shining eyes.
– In the Book of Changes, it is said, ‘With respect, one’s heart is upright, and with righteousness, one’s actions are upright.’ This is my ‘righteousness.’
Lee Bin is greatly surprised by the words he never expected to come out of the woman’s mouth. And Lee Bin realizes her own feelings about her painting.
However, even though the main couple was steadily building the narrative, viewership ratings did not increase as much as expected.
– I have a question about Episodes 3 and 4 of Sea and Otter.
[The amount of votes was originally written like this...? Why doesn’t it come out..?]
┗ There are some spaces in the middle in the original work.
┗ I am selling it for the taste of extracting a quantity that was not originally available.
┗┗ ㄹㅇ I lose concentration every time U-Kwon’s face appears;
┗┗ Haha.. It’s funny, but it’s not funny.
– Sun and Moon honestly
[Kang Hye-sung and Lee Bo-hee’s facial combinations are really good, but... why do I keep feeling disappointed... I just... think it would be good if there was more footage..]
┗ ㅠㅠI can’t help it,,
┗┗ If the content increases here, the original work will be destroyed.
┗┗ ㅇㅇ.. The U-Kwon character itself is dopamine..
┗┗ Dopamine ㅇㅈ
The turning point in the story was the moment when Yoo Do-hwa caught the bloody phlegm spit out as if by a plague patient.
Lee Bin and Yu-Kwon see the scene together, and they are both greatly shocked.
Since the plague is spread through even light contact, Dohwa believes that he has contracted the plague.
Lee Bin and Yu-Kwon guard Do-hwa, who has isolated himself in a hut, all night.
– You were Soje Yu’s brother.
– That’s right.
Lee Bin narrows her eyes as she looks at Yu-Kwon, who has suddenly raised his voice.
– Since when did you know this?
– It wasn’t that long ago. If I had known, I wouldn’t have handed you the wooden sword, Grand Commander.
A dark and restless night.
There are questions and answers that cleverly mix lies and truth.
The only time their hearts were in sync was when they hoped for Yudo-hwa’s safety.
Then, while U-Kwon is away for a moment, Lee Bin hums a song softly. Dohwa was barely able to fall asleep while listening to that song.
And the next morning.
– ···uh?
Dohwa wakes up fine.
– Jeong, are you really okay?!
– If there is anything that is not perfect, please tell me.
– I’m really fine. ···Rather, I sleep well and wake up feeling refreshed.
Lee Bin and Yu-Kwon realize something when they see Do-hwa’s face.
The fact that only Yu Do-hwa is immune to the plague that causes terrible consequences for all people, regardless of age or gender.
