What ensues is nothing short of adorable as the one-day king and his eunuch find themselves falling for each other.
Assigned to work for Lee Young, it doesn’t take long for her quirky disposition to catch the young royal’s eye. Raised as a male by her mother, Ra On not only worked as a relationship counselor and secret romance author, but also eventually ends up working at the palace as a eunuch. As Crown Prince Lee Young, Park Bo Gum’s life in the palace wasn’t the greatest, but this all changes the day he meets the young eunuch Hong Ra On.
But when you have a cast that includes Park Bo Gum, Kim Yoo Jung, and B1A4’s Jinyoung, you suddenly understand why we’ve added “Love in the Moonlight” to the list. When you think of warm, fuzzy dramas, historical dramas aren’t usually the first to come to mind. With this storyline alone, you’ve got more than enough for a delightfully warm and fuzzy drama, but when you add a number of colorful side characters, namely Super Junior’s Choi Siwon‘s loveably goofy Kim Shin Hyuk, you’ve got yourself a real winner – which is probably why this drama has inspired such a large number of remakes. Separated as children, the two agree to meet again as adults, but their complete role reversal has Hye Jin doing everything she can to get out of her promise. On the other hand, her once plain and poor childhood friend, Ji Sung Joon ( Park Seo Joon), has grown into a rich and handsome fashion magazine editor. Once a rich and beautiful girl, Kim Hye Jin ( Hwang Jung Eum) had the world at her feet, but a reversal of her family’s fortune, along with the loss of her outward beauty, has made life since then rather difficult. No, just like in the previous drama, it’s the chemistry between the leads that keeps you coming back for more. But it’s not the physical transformation that makes this drama so great. So if you’re looking for witty leading characters with far more chemistry than any two people should ever be allowed to have, and adorable side characters (including one incredibly squishy Henry Lau) who consistently make you smile, this drama is definitely the one for you.Īlong the lines of “Oh My Venus,” “She Was Pretty” is another drama which focuses on the slow transformation of its leading lady into a woman of unsurpassed beauty. It’s what every rom-com drama lover lives for, and this drama delivers on so many levels. The looks, the smiles, the slowly melting hearts, and steadily healing wounds…. The chemistry between Young Ho and Joo Eun is so completely fabulous that you can’t keep yourself from coming back for more. But when you add to that a clever lawyer by the name of Kang Joo Eun ( Shin Min Ah) using her wits, rather than her looks, to convince Young Ho to help her with her own problems, you’ve got a recipe for instant success. That’s exactly what this drama was when it originally aired and why it still holds up to this day. With an emotionally scarred and therefore vulnerable So Ji Sub playing Kim Young Ho, a Hollywood trainer on the run, you already know “Oh My Venus” is going to be good.
