Belonging to the ancient and romantic genre, the movie "To My Beloved Thief" (Vietnamese title: The Thief of Love) tells the story of the soul swap of Hong Eun Jo (Nam Ji Hyun) - the woman who is lingerie during the day, and Gil Dong nicknamed the thief in the evening, and Yi Yeol (Moon Sang Min) - Joseon's prince.
In exchange for fate, the two accompanied each other and proposed many solutions to protect the people.
In the first 2 episodes, Eun Jo and Yi Yeol had many tense clashes. Because they dressed differently, they misunderstood their true identities. Especially, after the surprise kiss, the female lead was searched by Yi Yeol, bringing many "laughing and crying" situations.
Following the familiar motif, but the movie "The Hidden Love" initially received sympathy from the audience thanks to the harmonious reaction of the main couple and many fantasy and humorous elements.
The film recorded viewership ratings of 4.3% and 4.5% for the first 2 episodes - more than double the rating of 1.7% that the last episode of the predecessor "Last Summer" achieved earlier in the same screening frame.
Speaking about the new ancient costume work, Nam Ji Hyun said she was nervous, worried but also full of expectations. The actress said she was moved by the script, the past stories of each character and how they influence each other, change through relationships.
I especially love the way that maturity not only stops at Eun Jo and Yi Yeol but also spreads to affect their whole world" - she said.
Meanwhile, Moon Sang Min said that he was attracted because the film has a gentle storytelling style but still helps viewers easily follow the emotional developments of the characters.
Because he was famous for his role as The Tu Seongnam in the movie "Under the Shadow of the Central Palace", this return, the actor wants to show many aspects of the character Yi Yeol - a heartless, cheerful, but also very sincere and dedicated guy to the woman he loves.
I think Yi Yeol's greatest attraction lies in the natural interweaving between moments that make viewers smile naturally and the moments he opens his heart, revealing his heart.
With a positive opening achievement, the movie "The Hidden Love" is expected to achieve more good results in the near future.
The work is 16 episodes long, broadcast on Saturdays and Sundays every week.
