Remember You

Another gem!

Found this in Viu.  Luv all the actors.  What is nice, I remember them from other Korean dramas I have watched or watching.  Seo In-guk as Kang Woo, the bodyguard, in Master's Sun; Park Bo-gum as the crown prince in Love in the Moonlight; Choi Won-young as Chief Gwi in Mystic Pop-up Bar, even Do Kyung-soo as the crown prince in 100 Days My Prince.  Specially liked the acting of Park Bo-gum.

Also known as "Hello, Monster" and "I Remember You", Remember You is a South Korean series about a genius profiler Lee Hyun (Seo In-guk) who returns to Korea because of a case which triggered a memory which he thought he lost forever.  He eventually joined a team in the police force, with one of its members, unknown to him has been investigating him because of his relationship with Lee Joon-young (Choi Won-young) who killed his father and for his brother, Lee Min/ Jung Sun-ho (Park Bo-gum), to be gone missing.

A crime drama thriller.  It has a lot of lessons imparted.  Although there is romance thrown, it is more on brotherly love, family and friendship.

I can repeatedly watch this!

The two lead actors have such chemistry that you get the "kilig" factor whenever they have a chance of skinship in their scenes.

Another Koreanovela I can watch repeatedly.
