  1. #kDrama (2/2)
    Memories of the Alhambra (cont.)

    Aside from requiring a suspension of disbelief if you know anything about AR, the story is exciting & twisty - mind-bending. Each eps shows the future & then the flashbacks fill you in on the details. This format makes you speculate & guess. It's fast-moving & with the time jumps & unexpected events, it does get confusing, but all is wrapped up nicely.

    Many people wanted more from the ending, but the clues dropped throughout the series provide enough information to "trust" that the ending is complete. Great acting, fun action, & beautiful scenery contribute to making it one of my favorite Korean sci-fi shows so far!

  2. #kDrama 1/2 (see comment)
    Memories of the Alhambra
    (2018 - Netflix 16 1:10 eps)

    Another case of the synopsis on MyDramaList not doing justice. A tech CEO comes across a revolutionary AR(augmented reality) game while at a conference in Spain. His only clue to the game developer is a hostel, with a beautiful owner, in Granada. He begins to play the game to discover clues, but it takes a sinister turn. His company & his life are at stake as he tries to put things right, but they depend on someone trusting him. But who can believe in the AR world they can't see? The tagline is "Trust is the magic that changes the world, not the technology." Even the setting - Alhambra has emblems of faith(trust) - emphasizes this theme.

    The Judge from Hell (2024)
    (2024 - Disney+ 14 1:10 eps)

    Justitia, the judge of Murderer's Hell sends a non-sinner to hell. Her punishment is to go to earth & find unforgiven, unrepentant murderers & send them to hell. She meets a detective who could foil her plans.

    Great special FX, fabulous outfits, fun & relevant OST, & good writing. A lot of violence, but it fits the rage &/or vengeance of the perpetrator. Park Shin Hye in her best role yet! She did many of her own stunts. Kim Jae Young portrayed a vulnerable, tortured soul brilliantly.

    "What is Justice?" is integrated into the story, with everyone judging everyone. Who & how should judging happen tie it all together. As Justitia becomes empathetic to the victims' suffering, her understanding of judging changes. The director took a weighty theme, with suspense & drama, but made it fun at times, & even teased the audience - very well done!

  4. The Judge from Hell (지옥에서 온 판사)
    Starring Park Shinhye (박신혜)
    ★★★★★★★★★★

    Justice served.

    This is the type of show that you wish is longer because they acted well, the cinematography was awesome, and the editing was excellent. But at the same time, you'll realize that it was perfect because they planned it to be exactly as short as it is, they knew it won't be good if it was longer.

    Satisfying.

    The Heirs (aka The Inheritors)
    (2013 - 20 1:00 eps) REWATCH

    A classic I 1st watched in early 2023. Knowledge of language & culture made it even better. The episodes flew by as the spoiled illegitimate 2nd son fell for the poor girl & had to fight to love her.

    Phenomenal casting of 3 proven leads early in their careers & the supporting actors (see hashtags) who have all had stellar careers. A screenwriter with several other highly-rated dramas (The Glory, The King: EM, Goblin...) The 3 leads & the show won many awards.

    It has a lot of wrist grabbing which was common at the time. But the depth that these young actors portrayed is astounding. Lots of character development & we come to understand their pain & the reasons for their actions. Excellent!
