The Moon Embracing the Sun has built a reputation that precedes it, and right now it's all available in Australia on Netflix and Netflix Standard with Ads, and in the US on Rakuten Viki and OnDemandKorea. Kim Soo-hyun leads a cast that brings something genuine to every episode.
The world-building is meticulous, but it's the characters who carry The Moon Embracing the Sun through the more ambitious episodes. Years after she's assumed dead by the palace, a young noblewoman, now trained as a shaman, returns to court to reclaim her rightful position as queen. Kim Soo-hyun and Yeo Jin-goo lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It aired in 2012.
Sci-fi fans who want ideas alongside the spectacle will find The Moon Embracing the Sun genuinely rewarding — it shares something with Planet of the Apes but carves out its own territory entirely. The kind of genre television that makes you think as well as watch.
