Development and casting

[edit]

In December 2015, KBS Media announced that they will be adapting and producing the popular novel Moonlight Drawn by Clouds (Korean: 구르미 그린 달빛, Gureumi geurin dalbit) written by Yoon Yi-soo.[5][6][7][8] Park Bo-gum joined the project in February 2016 and Kim You-jung boarded in April. The first script reading was held in Yeoido, Seoul on May 26, 2016, and filming began in early June.[9] Love in the Moonlight is the second collaboration between director Kim Seong-yoon and writers Kim Min-jung and Im Ye-jin after working on Who Are You: School 2015 and director Baek Sang-hoon, cinematographer Kim Si-hyeong and music director Gaemi after working on Descendants of the Sun (2016).[10]

Marketing

[edit]

The drama's first teaser, with lead actor Park dressed in dragon robe dancing to Jessy Matador's French pop song "Bomba" in front of Gwanghwamun, was released in July 2016 and became a viral hit.[11][12]

In a press conference held on August 18, 2016, director Kim Seong-yoon indicated that despite the series being set in the 19th century, the production aimed to show a more contemporary message adding: "Our focus was on creating a romance that's pretty and charming but also sad. We'd like viewers to be able to identify with the emotions displayed. There's no grand metaphor. Rather than unveiling a political message, we focused on telling a story that's easy to identify with."[13][14]

Release

[edit]

Love in the Moonlight aired on KBS2 at 22:00 (KST) every Monday and Tuesday for 18 episodes from August 22, 2016, until October 18, 2016. The series aired worldwide, with English subtitles, starting August 23, 2016, every Tuesday and Wednesday at 21:50 (KST) on KBS World.[15] It also streams internationally on Netflix.[16]

In partnership with Viki, which also streams the series internationally,[17] the series screened at the University of California, Berkeley in October 2016 as a joint project of the campus' Korea-centric organizations, KUNA and K-Popular.[18]

Reception

[edit]
Park Bo-gum (L) and Kim You-jung received praise for their performances

Critical response

[edit]

The series was met with praise by critics and audiences for its production, performances and music.[44][45][46][47] Rolling Stone India described the series as "a a timeless classic K-drama that looks into the intersection of culture and society" and a love story that "is an odyssey of significance cutting beyond class, stigma, and prejudices", concluding that it is "one of the best historical K-dramas."[48] The publication added that Kim You-jung has "exquisite expressiveness" while "Park Bo-gum is remarkably adept at expressing the subtleties" of his character's emotions.[48]

Impact

[edit]

Love in the Moonlight dominated topicality, content and brand reputation charts in and beyond its run which led the media to call its popularity "Moonlight Syndrome".[49][50] The big data analytics firm Good Data Corporation reported that Park ranked first in overall topicality making him the "Most Buzzworthy Performer" (TV; Drama and Entertainment) for nine consecutive weeks.[51] Media outlets subsequently referred to Park as "Nation's Crown Prince" and "Prince of Asia".[52][53][54]

Sales of the novel experienced a 56% increase upon the drama's airing,[55] earning in 500 million ($418,000) in profits through a pay-per-read deal.[56] The overseas demand consequently led to its translation in Mandarin and plans on Japanese and Thai translations, among others.[45]

Costume designer Lee Jin-hee was also commended for her work on the production's Joseon-era clothes. Lead actor Park's hanbok were put on exhibit at Tokyo International Forum during his Japan fan meeting the following year.[57][58] Both KakaoTalk and LINE released Moonlight digital stickers and three of Raon's outfits were made available for purchase in mobile game "I Love Nicky".[59][60] The eternal bracelets of Yeong and Raon went on sale as official merchandise and the drama's 336-page official photo essay book became a best-seller.[61][62]

Moonlight has also been parodied in shows like Saturday Night Live Korea and The Return of Superman, among others.[63][64] In September 2016, KBS Media acquired the rights to adapt Moonlight into a musical production.[65]

On October 19, 2016, Park, Kim, Jinyoung and Kwak held a fan-signing event, wearing their drama costumes, at the historic Gyeongbokgung Palace where scenes of the drama were filmed.[66][67] More than 5,000 fans gathered to see the cast and the event was also live-streamed on Facebook.[68] A gesture of gratitude for the drama's success, it was a collaborative effort between KBS and the Korea Creative Content Agency.[69]

Viewership

[edit]

Love in the Moonlight doubled its premiere ratings on its third episode and remained the undisputed #1 against 3 public broadcasting dramas in the same timeslot.[70][71] In addition, it became KBS's highest-rated Monday/Tuesday drama since 2010.[44][72]

Due to high audience ratings, KBS negotiated for the production to extend its original 18 episodes to 20. Chief producer Kang Byung-taek declined saying that the framework of the story had already been laid out and it would only yield complications with the cast and crew's respective schedules.[73]
