Hence SBS decided to postpone the broadcast of Lovers of the Red Sky. Instead, the network scheduled broadcasts of special programs and movies for the occasion.


What note did the last episode end on?

Considering his nightmare to be a bad omen, Ha Ram told Cheong-gi to forget whatever may have happened in the past. He refused to accept that he was the child who had helped her and played with her when she was blind. Cheong-gi, on the other hand, had decided not to heed his advice.

This time, he wants to protect her and keep her away from the palace. Yet, she decides to protect him instead. Cheong-gi also gets an opportunity to learn the truth about what really happened in the past. Prince Yangmyung gives her the option of living in the palace as a painter from the looks of it.

He asks her if she doesn't want to learn the truth. After all, her father is not only ill but has caught the attention of Prince Yangmyung's brother as well. He saw the devil Mawang in the second prince. The second prince had tried to be the home of Mawang from the past but had failed. So the mention of the demon in his presence has put Cheong-gi's father in grave danger.

She must act quickly, yet she seems to be worried about Ha Ram as well in the promo for Lovers of the Red Sky episode 7. What happens next remains to be seen on September 27th and 28th.
