Hotel Del Luna

I've seen probably 50 or 60 K-Dramas, and this ranks as second only to Goblin on my list. So many are good, but this is something special. I cried about 30 different times while watching. The emotions are deep and strong and real. I will definitely be watching it more than once. The two leads are beautiful and their relationship fraught with uncertainties. It covers a thousand years and so many good-byes and bittersweet reunions. It transcends death itself. Don't miss this jewel.

It is refreshing to watch a K-drama which explores the less commonly visited genres of horror (though I wouldn't really consider this drama to be scary at all) and fantasy + romance+ lil humor.

The plot is layered and has some depth, with plenty of twists and turns to keep you on the edge.

And all the actors are so amazing..

Ji-eun Lee has run the Hotel De Luna for over 1000 years, the customers are troubled ghosts who need to resolve their issues from life before they can pass over. Jin-gu Yeo is an ambitious manager at a top hotel but due to a promise his father has made has to work for Ji-eun. The story is well directed and the flashback scenes about how Ji-eun is being punished for her past deeds are paced perfectly. She looks stunning in every shot and a lot of thought has gone into her costume and jewellery. She starts as a shallow ruthless character but due to her interaction with her new manager starts to soften. The ghosts are sometimes quite scary and the side story of those and also the backgrounds of the other staff fill the episodes. The main story is still the relationship of the Manager and Owner of Hotel De Luna and will the end be happy or sad. Very enjoyable with excellent performances by the cast.

Absolutely fabulous fantasy, romance drama! Yeo Jin Goo and UI were exceptional in their performance as Chan Sung and Man Wol! Couple that with the most brilliant cinematography, and you have one of the most beautiful stories ever made! Loved it!

Very few series change a person's mood from sadness to utterly joyful and this is one of those
