New stills have been released featuring the first script reading for KBS’s upcoming fusion sageuk When Flowers Bloom, I Think of the Moon. Present at the reading were lead actors Yoo Seung-ho (Memorist), Hyeri (My Roommate Is a Gumiho), Byun Woo-seok (Record of Youth), and Kang Mina (Hotel del Luna).
Set during a period in the Joseon dynasty when strict prohibition laws were enacted against alcohol, the action romance story follows the principled government inspector Yoo Seung-ho as he tries to enforce the ban. While chasing down alcohol-related illegal activity, however, he runs into alcohol brewer Hyeri and, naturally, complications arise.
Rounding out the main cast, Byun Woo-seok plays the troublemaker crown prince who likes to sneak out of the palace for drinks, and straight shooter Kang Mina is the only daughter of a well-to-do family on the lookout for a husband.
Supporting cast who were also present at the reading included Choi Won-young (Reflection of You), Jang Kwang (Dal-li and Gamjatang), Im Won-hee (Move to Heaven), Kim Ki-bang (Should We Kiss First), and Bae Yoo-ram (Taxi Driver) among others.
Written by Kim Joo-hee and directed by PD Hwang In-hyuk (Doctor Prisoner, The Gentlemen of Wolgyesu Tailor Shop), When Flowers Bloom, I Think of the Moon premieres on December 20.
