Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo (Korean달의 연인 – 보보경심 려; Hanja달의 戀人 – 步步驚心 麗; RRDarui Yeonin – Bobogyeongsim Ryeo; MRTarŭi Yŏnin – Popokyŏngsim Ryŏ) is a South Korean television series based on the Chinese novel Bu Bu Jing Xin. It aired from August 29 to November 1, 2016, on SBS, every Monday and Tuesday at 22:00 (KST), for 20 episodes.[1][2][3][4][5]

The series recorded an average nationwide rating of 7.6% for Nielsen Korea and 7.3% for TNMS,[6][7] and was considered a failure for its performance below expectations.[8][9][10] The drama has reportedly been sold for more than $400,000 per episode to the Chinese broadcasting station Youku, totaling over $8 million and thus became the most expensive Korean drama ever sold at the time.[11] The record was beaten a few months later by Man to Man.[12]
