Moon River

Moon River dives into a Joseon ruled by schemes and secrets. A vengeful crown prince and a memory lost merchant suddenly find themselves occupying each other's bodies, and the fallout pulls bystanders into a widening web of lies and loyalties. Lee Kang, the prince, must pretend to be a merchant's ally while Park Dal-yi, a woman of wit and resource, tries to keep her own life intact as chaos erupts around her. The merchant, trapped in royal skin, confronts court intrigue that threatens more than his survival. Their swapped fates spark danger, humor, and hard questions about who we are when bodies shift.

Directed by Lee Dong-hyun and created by Cho Seung-hee, Moon River arrives in 2025 as a stylish drama that blends mystery and comedy, anchored by a strong ensemble and glossy period visuals.

Early viewers note solid performances from Kang Tae-oh Kim Se-jeong and the rest of the cast, with the premise allowing sharp commentary on power and memory. The show mixes tense plot turns with light humor, inviting questions about identity under shifting circumstances.
