Get your tissues and be ready to CRY
Perfection. Lee Joon Gi's acting got me shaking the entire time and my goddess IU never dissapoint. Their chemistry together was god tier and the whole story it self definitely got me permanently traumatized. Best production and best romance/fantasy/historical drama ever made in korean history. Literally every character deserved better and highlights to emotional/crying scenes and amazing character development. Definitely a must watch and a must love drama. If you don't start now, you will regret later.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Produtor?! Como você pode fazer isso com a gente?!
Que final insuperável... Moon Lovers é um dorama maravilhoso de bom. My gosh, que elenco perfeito. E a atuação?? Nem se fala. A IU arrasou muito no personagem dela. Nas cenas tristes (a maioria pelo visto), meu amigo, se você não chorou, você é a pessoa mais fria da face da terra. Ela conseguia transmitir perfeitamente os sentimentos que faz você realmente adentrar na história. E não só ela, o Lee Joon-gi, bem como o restante do elenco arrasou.A trilha sonora te prende de uma maneira que você acaba aprendendo todas e chorando por causa de todas também. Passei muita raiva, passei muito choro, me senti feliz nas poucas cenas felizes ;-;, e terminei indignada com o final.
E estou eu ainda mais indignada por saber que a cena que todos nós queríamos assistir como encerramento, foi gravada, porém simplesmente a cortaram '-'.... Dá pra acreditar num negócio desse.... Seria pedir demais que depois de 7 anos tivesse uma segunda temporada??

Scarlet heart made our heart broken
This drama is another masterpiece for sageuk lovers but with a painful,unforgettable end, i can't bring myself to express my feelings and to say that i have been crying until now, that feeling when you are left alone, when the person you love die while you was ignoring him out of jealousy and hate although his actions were for your sake, your brothers are apart of you, when your mother touched your face tenderly while she was passing away for the first time in your youthful life, when you rised to the glory but lost everything in fact, what does the throne mean for you now? That bloody seat you gained to have everything you desire made you lose everything. A great compassion from me to gyeonjong, that poorly king who was treated like an animal but proved up to everyone his legacy as a king who ruled for 25 years but with a scarred heart, with an harrowing loneliness and grievance. Lee joon ki( as always marvelous)portrayed this character with a great virtue and an awesome grinta,IU also did an amazing job although her character was the time-bomber which shredded the princes to fight each another as go ha jin because the real hae soo wasn't as interactive,curious,energetic as her(as mentioned in the plot).The cruel screenwriter made our hearts to ache and obliged us not to forget this drama easily keeping the yearning and the emotions floating, i hope they create a happy ending out from many sad moments next time better than making it unhappier and somber for the viewers.

Somehow I feel there's no need for season 2 if the story line are going to be suck. just leave it as melodramatic that left people touched and appreciate this historical drama.
But you will miss the chance and challenge to produce season 2..
Well I do challenge and would like to see how SBS would handle this

A second season needs to happen!
This show went from very happy, cheerful and optimistic to bleak and heartbreaking. The last few episodes are just drenched in sadness, and the very last one hits peak anguish, so be ready for that.During the first few episodes (before anyone died) I kept pondering how in a much smuttier and adult rated world, this would have been a badass reverse harem story. Having a bunch of good looking guys crushing on a somewhat oblivious girl, I found it impossible for my mind not to fall straight into the gutter.
Ahem, anyways...
Lee Joon Gi really gave it his all in this drama, he was absolutely fantastic! He made me cry my eyes out in the last episode. And as unlikable as could be, and as questionable as some of his actions and decisions were, I still found myself empathizing with him and rooting for him to find some peace and happiness. The broken bad boy, be it in historical drama version, or in modern times is always so alluring.
IU was also did a great job. Her transformation from bewildered girl transported back in time to dignified court lady was seamless. It's crazy how she had unique chemistry with each of the guys playing a Prince. From sibling-like love, to puppy love to full on soulmates love, she had such great rapport with them.
The costumes were beautiful, even if at times the wigs looked insane and the polka-dotted court lady uniforms were kinda weird. It was my first time watching a historical drama not set in the Joseon era, so seeing everyone rocking the loose hair was kind of a wild experience LOL
Keep an eye out for the weird zooms into the actors faces during some of the episodes. It'll feel like you're watching the Office (US), and the characters will break the 4th wall, address you directly and say something completely at odds with the time period. I still wonder about that directorial choice.
All in all, not everything about this was great, but the good definitely outweighed the bad. This is worth watching if only to see the main couple act their butts off.
P.S. I want a second season set in modern times, with a rom-com feel where everyone gets a happy ending! Make it happen SBS!

Sad ending
Ridiculous waste of time. I hate dramas that end this way. Will never watch again. Not much else to say. Lots of potential, horrible execution. I want to parade the writers through the streets game of thrones cersei style while i ring the bell of shame at them. Is it memorable? Sure. Did i like it? Absolutely not. This show kills of epeoppe for shock value. It reminds me of that one show about the korean slave that ran away to the us and who comes back to korea as a us soldier. Matter of fact i think it's the same girl. Anyway if i see her again i will quickly know to turn the chamnel since all her dramas are horribly ended.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Scarlet heart will forever hold a special place in my kseries memory.
I highly recommend it.......................................................<3

Excelent show
I really enjoyed the story and thought the acting was great. The main characters were perfectly portrayed, especially the male lead. I don't understand why the soundtrack wasn't more appreciated; overall, it was a great show to watch. However, I was disappointed with the ending. It was terribly sad for a story that started as a fantasy tale. I can appreciate tragic endings when depicting real-life events, like in the show Red Sleeve, but for this particular story, I felt the hopeless ending was unnecessary.Does anyone know why there is no season 2? With so many mediocre shows being released all the time, it's puzzling why they didn't produce another season for this one, which has so much potential.

A 花より男子 (Hana Yori Dango); Meteor Garden show with political sibling rivalry
I. StoryIn a story with many important characters, it is important to tell it clearly, they did well in doing that. The political war between the brothers were interesting, they also picked a good period for the Korean version of a Chinese novel.
Sadly, the romantic aspect of the story was delivered poorly. It did not elicit any emotional reaction. There was no built-up. This is primarily a story about sibling rivalry gone to the political level.
II. Acting
It was lacking in some areas, there were also scenes which looked like they were practicing. There were also memorable scenes, from pure laughter to serious where their acting were very natural.
III. Music
The music, unfortunately, did not make an impact. There were scenes where a powerful music fits but instead it did not have any or a weaker music was used. They should've used more.
IV. Production
The production was very good. They spent for quality materials and designs for the wardrobe of the actors. This is specially true for IU where she was able to wear historical wardrobes yet with a modern touch which fits her aura. Great job in blending the two eras.
However, close-up shots were overused to the 5th power. It wasn't needed in many of the scenes, it became annoying. In the boat scenes, there was too much backlight glare from the sun the actors (again close-up shots) can be barely seen.
