During the Joseon Dynasty, a young woman named Hong Chun Ki is a painter – a true rarity in Joseon Korea, where Confucian values dictate that such pursuits are unsuitable for a woman. She was born blind but somehow managed to acquire a sense of vision. And now she has been accepted to the most prestigious art college in the land. One day, she meets Ha Ram, an astrologer whose fate is the polar opposite of her own: Although he was born sighted, he lost his vision in a childhood accident. Regardless, he is also in possession of an astounding talent that allows him to read the future by tracing the movement of the sky at night despite the fact that he is blind. The duo is sucked into the machinations of the royal court, particularly those involving two princes, the free-spirited Prince Yang Myung and the cruel, scheming Prince Joo Hyang – a man who longs to become the next Joseon king.

Both dramas have a female lead who is focused on her career. Hae Ryung works at the palace, and so (eventually) does Cheon Gi. Both female leads fall for a man who at first glance seems more soft/gentle, while the female lead is more strong willed and ambitious. (Though, in Lovers of the Red Sky, Ha Ram isn't really as soft and gentle as he may seem.) And both dramas start out with more focus on the female lead's professional aspirations and on the blossoming romance before transitioning to a greater focus on political intrigue and more angst.
That said, the tone of Rookie Historian Goo Hae Ryung is more comedic and down to earth than the spooky vibe of Lovers of the Red Sky.
