In 2012, Moon starred in the Lee Kyung-hee-penned melodrama The Innocent Man opposite Song Joong-ki. She drew praise for her performance as a cold, cynical woman groomed to take over her father's conglomerate, who later reverts to helpless innocence after losing her memory. Ratings for The Innocent Man topped its timeslot during its run, and the critical acclaim led to Moon winning a Top Excellence Award at the KBS Drama Awards for the second year in a row. This was followed by the 2013 medical drama Good Doctor revolving around an autistic savant resident (played by Joo Won). To prepare for her role as pediatric surgeon, Moon met with real-life doctors in a hospital setting, familiarizing herself with medical terms and observing surgeries first-hand.

She next starred in Awaiting, a short film directed by Kang Je-gyu. Moon played a woman separated from her husband (played by Go Soo) for sixty years by the division of North and South Korea. Awaiting was one of the four short films comprising Beautiful 2014, an omnibus project that premiered at the 38th Hong Kong International Film Festival. Moon returned to the big screen in a 2015 romantic comedy directed by Park Jin-pyo, which reunited her with previous Brilliant Legacy costar Lee Seung-gi. In Love Forecast (also known as Today's Love), she played a weather forecaster whose pretty face belies the glib-talking, hard-drinking personality underneath. She has also been cast opposite Yoo Yeon-seok in The Mood That Day, in which they play two strangers who meet on the KTX and spend 24 hours together in the unfamiliar city of Busan.
