Hotel Del Luna

Hotel Del Luna (Korean) - Chan Sung & Man Wol

 

I liked this show. It reminded me a little of Master's Sun in the first episode or two. I liked the relationship that grew between Chan Sung and those in the hotel. Especially from when they tried to get rid of him but he turned around and basically told them he was not going anywhere to when they all started caring for each other. Even up to the very end where they were telling each other goodbye before leaving.

There were a few instances where I was scared for Chan Sung's life. One of which was when he was told about a “special” guest the hotel had. To hear that he would go crazy when he sees the guest, I was not happy. That was towards the beginning when everyone was trying to get rid of him because that would mean the hotel would close down. Another was when he collapsed after hugging an image of his friend's younger self when Man Wol was messing with the friend's memories.

I was sad that Man Wol was stuck in one place and had “lived” hundreds of years for one thing to happen. But, in the end, I am happy that she was stuck because then she would not have met Chan Sung who had changed her for the better. Not only that, she was able to be happy and fall in love for the first time in a very long time. I loved that every time he was in some sort of trouble, she would be there to save him or send someone to help him.

I do have to admit that I was in tears when Chan Sung was crying when he was at the bus stop. Man Wol had left for a month and everyone was fearing she would not return. I was in tears again when he was seeing her off and they were both crying. They did not want her to leave because they had fallen in love and he would be left with memories of their time together.

In the end, it was nice seeing everyone be happy in one way or another. And it was a good show to watch.
