Aligned with the best tv series like Dong Yi, Jumong, Jewel
in the Palace, Chuno and Queen Seon Duk, another
Korean drama series will definitely
hit the Philippine television by storm, “The Moon that Embraces the Sun”.
The Moon that Embraces the Sun is a k-series adapted from a
novel with the similar title that depicts the life of a female shaman and the
king of the Joseon Dynasty. The sun represents
the king of Joseon Dynasty and the moon symbolizes the queen.
