“Moon in the Day” continues to shock as we weave between the previous and the longer term. Kim Young Dae and Pyo Ye Jin proceed to completely kill it in each timelines, distinguishing their characters such that Do Ha (Kim Young Dae) in Han Jun Oh’s physique feels perceptibly totally different, and astute and succesful Kang Young Hwa (Pyo Ye Jin) feels markedly separate from Ha Ri Ta’s drive and desperation. The villains are organising some nasty stuff within the background, which is why it is sensible for Do Ha’s secret to come back out at this juncture and for Young Hwa to lastly witness the reality behind the person who haunts her goals. Here’s each time Do Ha offers Young Hwa the reality this week!

Warning: spoilers for episodes 5-6 and the manhwa “Moon in the Day” beneath.

1. When he recreated scenes from their previous

The destruction of Young Hwa’s protecting bracelet when she was hit by Goo Tae Joo’s (Jung Heon’s) automobile appears to have opened some form of door to her recollections of her previous life as Ri Ta. Interestingly, she doesn’t bear in mind all 18 of her previous lives. It’s solely Ri Ta’s life that her soul remains to be clinging to. Like Young Hwa, Ri Ta was a warmhearted individual, who regardless of her vendetta in opposition to Do Ha, couldn’t assist however really feel for him. She noticed how he was little greater than a weapon of struggle utilized by his father and the king to kill whomever they needed. He had no life and no actual alternative of his personal. What’s worse, regardless of how little he cares for dwelling, he’s by no means chilly or harsh or abusive. Instead, he lights up her path with candles when she slips and falls at nighttime. She is aware of he sees her anger as justified, and it’s unattainable to not look after a person like that.

It begins along with her recommending herbs for his insomnia, and naturally, he exhibits up the subsequent day with lotus seeds for her as a result of they remind him of her. The thick outer layer of the seed needs to be pierced to ensure that the plant to develop and bloom. He hopes that she is going to too. They wager on in the event that they’ll be alive when nature cracks the shell’s exterior to bloom these seeds. Ri Ta thinks they’ll by no means bloom. Do Ha bets that they are going to, even when it takes over a thousand years. And in modern-day Korea, Do Ha and Young Hwa hearken to a information report about Silla-era lotus flowers blooming, and Do Ha thinks that he gained. But Young Hwa says out loud that she misplaced.

Do Ha freezes in realization that she one way or the other has begun to recollect their previous. His suspicion is confirmed when he finds her studying books about dream interpretation. He begins to recreate scenes from their previous, lighting her method when she stumbles at nighttime identical to he did earlier than. Young Hwa doesn’t understand what he’s doing and simply appears like she’s in a everlasting state of deja vu. That, plus her historical past of visions, has her terrified she’s going insane. Especially when Do Ha calls her out on it.

2. When he confronted her on dreaming of him

At this level, Young Hwa appears like she’s dwelling with a foot in two worlds, and Do Ha/Jun Oh is the one fixed in every. She can’t inform if she’s obsessive about him sufficient to be dreaming of him or whether or not there’s simply one thing fallacious along with her head to conjure these detailed emotional visions. She’s unnerved and making an attempt to be strictly skilled with Jun Oh whereas having all these huge emotions for Do Ha. He notices that she’s shying away and calls her out, asking if she goals of him by any probability. He says that she’s been calling him naeuri, or “my lord,” for the reason that accident, and Young Hwa simply stammers excuses and races off. But Do Ha isn’t so simply averted.

3. When he appeared earlier than her as Do Ha

Monk Hae In (Shin Yu Ro) is terrified that Do Ha means Young Hwa hurt and continues to try to defend her from the sidelines. Armed with a talisman from the top monk (Lee Young Suk), he sneaks into Do Ha’s company and slaps the talisman on him earlier than Young Hwa. She thinks he’s loopy and shoves him out, however the talisman has achieved its job. Within minutes, Jun Oh collapses and loses his pulse. Young Hwa’s terrified however performs CPR, solely to freeze when a well-recognized determine seems earlier than her. He’s very clearly a ghost and really clearly not Jun Oh. It’s Do Ha.

Can I simply say how a lot I like how sorrowful Do Ha’s eyes all the time are? He is simply stunning.

Young Hwa understandably panics. She simply freezes there, even when Do Ha returns to Jun Oh’s physique and goes residence and collapses. All her repressed childhood recollections of the ghost in darkish purple robes following her come again to the floor, and she or he huddles in worry. Even a go to to the physician doesn’t assist as a result of the physician dismisses her story as hallucinations and places her on remedy. But the beauty of Do Ha is that he isn’t about to let issues lie as they’re, so he involves make clear the reality.

4. When he revealed that he wasn’t Jun Oh

Do Ha heads to the monks who interfered and makes two issues clear: one, sure, he’s a robust vengeful ghost who can destroy them if he needs. Two, he’s solely right here to do what he must do with a view to be freed from this world. If they intrude once more, he’ll not be happy. The head monk astutely factors out that hurrying his mission may not assist him although. There are lingering emotions maintaining him to this world. And in the event that they go unresolved, his ties would possibly stay. Do Ha dismisses this. He spends the remainder of the day following Young Hwa to ensure that she’s okay after seeing him as a ghost however nonetheless dismisses this! Even when he finds her lifeless drunk and delays killing her, he justifies it by telling himself that he’s simply interested by why he died. Okay, Do Ha.

The method he seems at her. And he thinks he has no lingering emotions!

He comes out with the reality right away. He isn’t Jun Oh and is possessing him. Only, Young Hwa’s drunk out of her thoughts and probably not listening. She’s extra centered on resolving to by no means dream once more and to reside in the actual world. It’s price noting that Do Ha by no means takes the selection from her right here. He doesn’t power her to listen to him out and waits for her to recollect what he’s mentioned and put all of it collectively. Young Hwa’s fairly sensible, so it solely takes a day.

5. When he demonstrated that he was a vengeful ghost

Pyo Ye Jin is simply attractive.

Her hangover is guilty for her not remembering what he mentioned the subsequent morning. And Jung Yi Seul’s (Jung Shin Hye’s) announcement that she and Jun Oh are relationship is guilty for her not remembering what he mentioned the subsequent afternoon. Do Ha is visibly sick of Yi Seul and continually exhibits Young Hwa that he has no curiosity, however Young Hwa hates herself for even being damage on condition that all the things she’s feeling is for Do Ha, who “doesn’t exist,” and never for Jun Oh. She actually packs up and leaves Jun Oh’s residence to get her head collectively, and it isn’t till night when she registers what Jun Oh mentioned about him not being Jun Oh. She races off to seek out monk Hae In and goes to the temple, which she acknowledges as the identical one her father took her to once they have been looking for a technique to cease her seeing ghosts.

The head monk doesn’t inform Young Hwa all the things however advises that her soul should have some lingering emotions which can be evoking recollections of this specific previous life. Interestingly, the bracelet that protected her all these years was made with a lotus seed (which was shattered through the automobile accident). The head monk provides that he was not the one who made that protecting talisman. So, who did? Young Hwa leaves with a head filled with questions and calls the one individual with solutions: Jun Oh. He is aware of that is their second of fact and heads out to satisfy her on a bridge. She’s incredulous at first, considering that he was joking that none of this may be actual, however he turns all the bridge’s lights on and off and admits that he’s been haunting her for millennia, not out of alternative. And solely she will break that curse. When she asks why, he doesn’t reveal that she killed him however offers her one thing extra heartbreaking: as a result of she was his spouse.

Ahh! They have been married! 

We see the day of their marriage the place Do Ha items Ri Ta with a necklace of lotus seeds afterwards to guard her from all evil on the planet. They’re the identical seeds that have been in Young Hwa’s bracelet. And whereas Ri Ta seems nervous on her marriage ceremony day, Do Ha appeared like a person able to die for her.

This is heartbreaking. No surprise Do Ha’s soul can’t transfer on. He doesn’t perceive why she killed him. They seem to have been previous what he did. An honorable point out second on this episode was when Lord So Ri Bu (Lee Kyung Young), Do Ha’s adopted father, guessed that Ri Ta was the lifeless Gaya common’s daughter and had her framed for theft and tortured. Do Ha risked all the things: his life, his obligation to Silla, and his obligation to So Ri Bu to free her and assist her escape again to Gaya. Ri Ta’s visibly terrified for him and is aware of he’ll be severely punished upon returning, and their vows to one another to outlive maintain new that means as does her vow to come back again for him. There was one thing highly effective constructing there, and so they each acknowledged it. It’s no surprise he doesn’t perceive why she killed him.

Next week hints at So Ri Bu making his transfer whereas possessing Seok Chul Hwan (Jung Woong In). He’s framed Jun Oh’s company lawyer Attorney Go (Lee Joon Hyuk) for Goo Tae Joo’s loss of life and is probably going going to carry it over Go with a view to break Jun Oh/Do Ha. Han Min Oh (On Joo Wan) can be suspecting one thing off about Jun Oh. But Do Ha and Young Hwa stay the guts and soul of this present because it seems to hurtle towards tragedy. Is there any method of stopping Do Ha from dying and for him to lastly reside a lifetime of his personal selecting within the twenty first century? The drama has modified up rather a lot from the supply manhwa. Can it additionally alter the manhwa’s heartbreaking ending? I’m hopeful and terrified.
