Days after Lee Joon Gi posted on his Instagram account a message captioned with "Soon" that made "Moon Lovers" fanatics gone crazy, its Lee Ji Eun's turn in trolling the hearts of many.
Ji Eun, "Moon Lovers" heroine who is also known as IU in the music industry, posted an image, which is rumored to be a modern era scene that was edited out in SBS' "Moon Lovers" finale episode. The image shows Go Ha Jin (Hae Soo) crying when someone offered her a polka dots handkerchief.
The image doesn't show the face or the body of the person; however, based on the hand, it is safe to say that it belongs to Wang So (or whatever his name on the modern era). To back the speculation that it is indeed Wang So, many die hard "Moon Lovers" fans even tried to screenshot the character's hands from the show's previous episode. One fanatic even commented a funny remark, saying that based on the placement of the person's veins on its hand, this is certainly Joon Gi offering a handkerchief to Ji Eun.
However, since SBS seems to having so much fun in trolling the viewers (good examples includes showing misleading previews and featuring Ji Mong meeting Hae Soo in modern era instead of Wang So), some took it in a funny way and think that it could be Ji Mong's hands or a reincarnated Wang Wook who became a handkerchief seller.
Is there a possibility for "Moon Lovers" Season 2?
Many believed that this is not possible since the show garnered low ratings from its home country, but international viewers think otherwise since Universal Studios invested on the project. As of this time, though no official announcement yet was given if there's indeed a second season run for "Moon Lovers," fans are hoping that SBS' would finally give in since there's a humongous number of petition for the said idea.
While other wishes to see a "Moon Lovers" Season 2, others are craving for some special episode to see a closure to Hae Soo-Wang So relationship, given to what Wang So said on the show's open ending final episode - "I will find you My Soo."
"Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo" Spinoff Movie Possible?
If what was previously announced will be followed, fans may get to see a "Moon Lovers" spinoff movie that would definitely put a closure to the cliff hanger ending that we saw on "Moon Lovers" episode 20.
According to Arri's interview with Cinematographer Cheon-Seok Kim, they did film 20 episodes of "Moon Lovers" plus a feature film spinoff. The question now lies on when will the spinoff be released or if they do have any plans on pushing through with the spinoff movie.
