I’m a little too seasoned to suffer a bout of tears and snot over the smallest sad plot development in a drama, but watching Yeo Jin Gu cry in the preview for episode 5 of The Moon that Embraces the Sun got me right there in the gut. He’s truly a phenomenal child actor, and the same is true for every one of those precocious and precious young ones bringing the MoonSun story to life. Of course there is going to be pain, but hopefully the angst will feel real and raw, setting the stage for the adults to take the story if a whole new level of awesome after the children take the bow. Whatever happens to Yeon Woo, we know that some shaman magic plus political backstabbing are at play. It’s hard for mere mortals to contend with that.

m tearing T..............T
I really want to watchhh
Just watching the preview breaks my heart. Yeo Jin Gu really is a phenomenal actor... I'm going to miss him so much.. and other child actors T.T
Thanks much for this video preview. I totally agree with you Captain. I just finished watching the early episodes of Giant. Yeo Jin Gu's awesome performance in those episodes blew me away. I look forward to your recap for this episode. Thanks in advance! :)
He was my favorite child actor in Giant. I liked him wayyy more than the adult who played his character.
He was great in Warrior Baek Dong Soo too....
My heart is ripping. I was crying by episode two because I knew what was coming. And the teenage actors, what big shoes they have left for the adult actors to fill. It's making me sad to let them go. But we must, other wise we will never see Kim Soohyun and Jung Ilwoo. ;D And Lee Hwon's tears, gah!!!! I'm more hurt for Yang Myung! I heard that the book is different, that Wol/Yeonwoo doesn't have amnesia. Let's just hope the drama doesn't focus 10 episodes on memory loss. Gosh, the angst!
sob sob...
Darn those are awesome acting kiddos! Bravo!
Cannot wait to watch this moonsun... This is currently my new crack kdrama :)
Yayy. Bring it on Babies ;)
T_T Ngaw I'll be crying buckets when this episode comes out!!
Yeo Jin Gu just made me want to cry after seeing that... just too horribly devastating. I rarely cry while watching dramas - only a few have really hit the heart - usually ones that involve mommy's & their children. Coming into this - I had zero expectation that I would be that moved by any of the kids performances. Kudos to all of them!
Hmm... I don't know much about the details except what I've read here and there, but all I know is that I am an anti-fan of any kind of memory loss plot line in any kind of drama - regardless of the reason. As for the fantasy elements - I turned off the mind of the crazy fantasy antics in SG last year, so hopefully, the fantasy elements will be better here. Ultimately, I don't think I will care all that much as long as I'm satisfied with the ending.
Sigh we know it's coming and it's still going to hurt >.<
He has so much grown up, wow! In acting as well as in looks ^^ I am so happy for him!
OMG. That's only a preview yet I'm already crying. >.< Oh nooooooooooooooooo.
