Memories of the Alhambra

From the previews I thought this was just another sappy K drama love story, but I was pleasantly surprised to find out that it was a whole lot more than just a love story. There's a sci-fi element that makes this series worth watching. The concept is so original and even the love story is compelling. After each episode I couldn't wait to see where the story was going next so of course I ended up binge watching it over the weekend.

The acting is great, the production values are top notch, and the characters are very likeable. Even when they do something questionable, you still want to root for them. The main character does some very shady things but that never seems to make him less likeable. The writers deserve a lot of credit because that's not an easy thing to do. I hope they'll do a second season soon because I want more.

I was so in love with this show since I first saw the trailer. I knew this was for me because I'm so down for Sci-fi series. Usually, there's not much sci-fi in Korean dramas but this one is outstanding. The beginning of the show is so attracting. It hooked me from the first ep.

The idea of bringing AR game to real life is brilliant. So creative, you could hardly imagine. Movie pace is pretty slow for viewers to catch things up easily. (I wish it was faster like US shows). They did an overwhelming great job on VFX!! The casts in this drama are good as well (they are famous for their great acting). I'm especially impressed by Chanyeol's acting (plays SeJu).

But from Ep.13 til the end, it's full of "flashbacks". They put together cutscenes from previous episodes, which is a waste of screen time. It shows they lack of storyline for the ending. And that's why the ending is very disappointing.

Could've rated 6/10 but because I love the idea, the VFX, and how they film is really cinematic, so 7/10.

I enjoyed every second of it,but the ending didnt satisfy me😕

Firstly, i want to admit that i watched this drama because i love Park Shin-Hye . but when i watched the first Ep, my first reaction was :" OMG, this so creative, i wanna watch more of this". but this time i didn't said so because of her only, but also because of the story itself. i was so attracted to this drama for the whole time i watched it that i couldn't sleep. Thinking what will happen with these charters. It's the first time i watch such an outstanding drama which effect me that much. i laughed with it, cried for it, and thought of it even in the shower lol but it's true :) ... Also enjoyed watching Hyun Bin and Park Shin-hye together, they are so beautiful couple. i rate it 9 of 10 because i wanted more of this story, i hope there will be season 2.

The representation of place 'Granada' with such an imaginative scene. The mind blowing story telling, every episode reminds you of past plot, and give chills about what's going to happen. If you don't find any of the above what I mentioned, then it will be at a point where it's dwells into emotions(story) of romance and relationship. So much different aspects/genre in one series, Glad I didn't miss this experience.
