I was worried that the back-to-back soul swap sageuk airing of K-dramas Moon River on MBC transitioning to To My Beloved Thief on KBS might steal the latter’s thunder by being a second to arrive problem. But right now with Moon River ending this weekend and Beloved Thief ramping up to its first week of January premiere I’m feeling like the momentum is right for viewers to crave another soul swap drama done right, and bonus points for a different set up and charming leads of its own. KBS released new promo material this week with a poster, new stills of leads Nam Ji Hyun, Moon Sang Min, Hong Min Ki, and Han So Eun, as well as a fun new trailer and this drama if good will definitely kick off the new year in 2026 right in K-drama land.
