01 / A closer look

The story, without the spoilers.

Crown Prince Sajo Hyun is two people in one body. By day he is a gentle, artistic prince who designs clothes and dreams of a quiet life. By night he becomes Ak-hee, a second personality who is dangerous, charming and capable of terrible things. Into his palace comes Yeon Wol, an assassin sent to kill him, who loses her memory and wakes up as his concubine with no idea who she is or why she came. As the two circle each other, the prince's two selves pull in opposite directions, and the woman who was sent to end his life becomes the only person who might understand him. Based on the webtoon Fantasy Sonata, Love Song for Illusion aired on KBS2 from January 2, 2024, in sixteen episodes, starring Park Ji-hoon and Hong Ye-ji. It is a historical fantasy romance with a striking idea that the execution does not always live up to.

The Oxfea take.

A crown prince with two souls. An assassin with one mission.

TWO SOULS. ONE THRONE.

Why you'll get hooked

Park Ji-hoon plays Crown Prince Sajo Hyun, who hides a second, dangerous personality.
Hong Ye-ji plays Yeon Wol, an assassin who loses her memory and becomes his concubine.
Based on the webtoon of the same name, sixteen episodes on KBS2.

Oxfea Score: 6.8/10 — Honest take. A crown prince with two personalities and a pretty fantasy set-up that never quite finds its footing — Park Ji-hoon tries hard, but the story repeats itself and the romance feels thin.
