‘The Moon Floats on This River’ Unveils Enchanting Posters

MBC’s upcoming drama ‘The Moon Floats on This River’ just dropped a trio of teaser posters — and they’re giving fans all the whimsical, soul-swapping chaos they signed up for.

Starring Kang Tae-oh and Kim Sejeong, the series is billed as a “life-reversal romantic comedy” with a fantasy twist. It premieres on October 31 in Korea.

Soul Swap Meets Joseon Romance

Set in Korea’s Joseon dynasty era, the show follows a crown prince who’s lost his smile and a wandering merchant with no memory. And here’s the kicker — their souls magically switch bodies.

Kang Tae-oh plays Prince Lee Gang, whose chilly expressions scream ‘no nonsense.’ Kim Sejeong stars as Park Dari, a sassy peddler with charm that could sell snow in winter. When their identities get flipped, chaos (and chemistry) quickly follow.

Poster Peek: Chemistry and Comedy

The first teaser posters deliver a visual metaphor: Lee Gang holds Dari like a paper doll, while an alternate version flips the script — Dari’s dressed as royalty, sly grin included, with the prince by her side.

And then there’s the special poster: Park Dari smiles mysteriously, with Prince Lee Gang perched atop her traditional hat, clutching it for dear life. The brushstroke-style background adds old-school flair.

That tag line? “A soul-swapping tug-of-war romance.” Sounds messy — and irresistibly fun.

K-Drama Power Couple Potential

This marks Kang Tae-oh’s drama return since his military hiatus, and fans are already shipping him and Kim Sejeong as the next big rom-com duo.

Early buzz points to their dynamic being electric. From princely poise to merchant mischief, the two are expected to show off serious range — and synchronized comedic timing.

Mark Your Calendars

The Moon Floats on This River’ kicks off on October 31 on MBC. If you like your romance with a dash of fantasy and full-body identity crises, this might just be your next obsession.

Who else is ready for some soul-swap shenanigans under the Joseon moon?
