Memories of the Alhambra: Ep 1 Rewatch My Notes
This is for @GB and the folks who did the rewatch last Saturday. I didn’t read my old write-ups because I wanted to watch Ep 1 with a fresh start. 1. In a world apart The drama begins in media res. Without any context, the audience is plunged into a hectic situation, a chase scene. […]

Crash Landing on You: Comparisons with Memories of the Alhambra
I don’t know about you, but when I saw the flash of lightning and heard thunder outside the window, and then saw Hyun Bin standing outside in the rain, I had flashback of “Memories of the Alhambra” (MoA). I thought that HyunSeok was going to spring out nowhere and slash him with that sword again. […]
Memories of the Alhambra: On Bug NPC Marco
I said I wasn’t going to answer anymore question on the game logic, but okay, I’ll answer this one @soumya vishnu’s question and that’s it. I am a new reader of your site, so sorry if I missed this earlier: my question is, if the game can be reset only if all bugs are killed, […]
Memories of the Alhambra: My Timeline Notes
I’m slowly deleting my notes to make way for the new kdrama. I thought that my notes on the timeline might help others. If not… oh well. 🙂 *********************** From Ep 9 (21:03) when Jinwoo was in the school yard and the Citadel Hawk landed on his arm: “Master has sent you a secret quest […]
Memories of the Alhambra: On Instance Dungeons Again 🙂 and Bathrooms
I think there’s a misunderstanding here about instance dungeons. A poster in soompi wrote this comment: How can JW be released from the dungeon? Remember the whole Hand of Fatima and when the key reaches the hand, the palace would crumble story. Well, the dungeon is essentially that palace. And would only crumble if some other player […]
Memories of the Alhambra: First and Last Impressions 👍👍
@soapbeans wrote: I like how you found parallels between the Dead Knight and the Jesus on the donkey window pane. That post you had on the parallels between Ep 1 and Ep 6 was cool – because I remember wondering why the Dead Knight in Ep 1, but forgot all about it by the time […]
Memories of the Alhambra: On NPC HyunSuk
Nothing new to see here. 😀 I’m only transferring a post I did in another forum with minor edits. ************************* A poster named stevii wrote: I really love your blog expecially the ones about MOTA because you are one of the people who don’t question the logic of the game because i really get how […]
Memories of the Alhambra: Jesus on the Donkey 🐴
I mentioned that the Knight of Death was relevant to the story here and gave two reasons. Here’s the third one I promised. Again, this is MY interpretation of the kdrama. Be my guest and see if YOU can come up with another better — or worse — interpretation. 😂 I’m all ears. To me, […]
Memories of the Alhambra: Game Logic Again
A poster from soompi asked me this question. I’m answering here. As usual, her post is in blue italics; my reply in black. This does help me answer a lot of my question about the glitch/bug and how jinwoo could be a bug. On all the theme and symbolism the post mention, i see that […]
Memories of the Alhambra: Ep 1 and 16 Wrap-up
One reason I gave this kdrama a whopping A- as final grade is because I LOVED how the ending paralleled the beginning. (I dinged it because I expected the honeymoon in Granada and 2.5 children.) It’s rare in kdramas nowadays to see a script come full circle and end the story where it began. To […]
Memories of the Alhambra: Goyangi’s Instance Dungeon and Odysseus
Goyangi’s comments are in blue italics; my take on the matter is in black. ************************ + I have the same question as everyone about why Marco and Sejoo seem to be exempt from bug status. Possible answer: Sejoo said Marco no longer showed up once Jinwoo completed the quest and became the new master. Were […]
