SBS released the first official drama stills for upcoming sageuk romance Red Sky (Lovers of the Red Sky or Hong Chun Gi) this week and the first drop is of female lead Kim Yoo Jung in two different looks. She’s dressed as a Joseon woman in one look where she is painting and the other look is that of the official uniform of the Joseon era painter. Her character is named Hong Chun Gi which is the name of the novel title and a literal translation is Red Sky Rising or Red Sky Mystery so SBS calling the English title Red Sky is a riff off her name, but also male lead Ahn Hyo Seob is playing an astrologer who has a mysterious affliction and is blind and sometimes has red glowing eyes. The production also posted a picture at the wrap filming with the two leads surrounded by the hardworking cast and crew.

Actually the first stills for the drama weren’t this…. It was of Ahn Hyo Seop two days ago. And SBS did it again. They posted AHS stills on their social medias but for Kim Yoo Jung they did not. Shitty promotion indeed.
Can’t wait for my girl!
Our Genius Painter Hong!
She looks so good in any hanbok!
Crossing my fingers that this drama is female centric and would focus to KYJ despite the favor of SBS to the male lead. I love AHS. I hate SBS.
Rooting for the drama!
KYJ in hanbok feels so nostalgic.
She is so pretty.
I thought the male lead is a vampire with the red eyes , I am curious why is he an astrologer and blind at the same time. I mean that’s contradictory.
I like how we have another painter main lead, feels like there is not much after saimdang. The female lead, albeit her existence historically is still on questions feels more like a real person than the astrologer.
All I know that the drama pique my interest in how they’ll play it out. Best of luck
To answer your question. Haram has a demon inside him. So he’s got a divine power. He got blind after an accident happen while doing a certain ritual. And that’s also where I think he acquired the demon. Even though he is blind he can read the stars that’s why he became an astrologer. Like he knows a person will come base on the position of the stars. To top it more, it’s just not any demon but the demon king. So Ahn Hyo Seop will play two characters.
Feeling good for this
Rooting so much for KYJ.
As much as I hate that broadcasting channel for always disregarding her, my support for her, all the actors, staffs, PD is all the way! I hope it will succeed.
I’m excited for the PaulYoo loveteam
