aruganiykasuymats The story of the trama series is one of the masterpieces in my opinion. But the casting of the role doesn't seem to match. I think there are more actors who would be better suited to the role of the main actor. The story is good but the casting was wrong so no award was received.

Jung Ah Jung

      • SPOILER!!! *** It made me so angry that the ghost in Room# 13, was able to get out. Carelessness and incompetence allowed it and then she ends up having to pay the price.

Surbydudu This was nice but then the ending was too slow people, why didn't they just wrap everything up quick and easy.

Kent Im from the philippines i am a big fan for the hotel del luna and I have been a fan of hotel del luna for a long time and am waiting for season 2 it's sad because I didn't even see them getting together again if they met in the future I hope in season 2 even if they are no longer stars, Jan man-wol and kon chan-sung will meet Today is July 16, 2024 and today is my age, I am 18 now, born in 2006 and I hope my wish will come true even if I am just a fool who is hoping for a wish, thank you

Ayu Have been waiting since 2019 for Season 2 "Hotel Blue Moon" with Kim Soo Hyun oppa as the lead... Please make it true...

Red Aquarius The second season is "Hotel Blue Moon"

Lisa @Inad It must be the second season they promised haha

Inad a copy of Goblin? Again, 90% of the drama involves only the protagonists, the conversations are repetitive, the plot is tiring.

I gave up on this drama in the second episode. ~?

Ish Another gem. It has to be said that Korean cinema far surpasses anything Hollywood can do today.

shadowhero_ A timeless TV Series

I watched Hotel del Luna (HDL) for the first time when it aired on TV in 2019 and rewatched it 6 more times until now and for me, personally, it is the best series out there even after 3+ years. I think everyone has a movie or a show that changed their life in a way or another, that made them view some things differently. For me, HDL is that show. It made me see existence in another manner and also made me want to make a career in filmmaking.

Just as existence is a subjective thing, so my review is also subjective, so feel free to rate it as you wish. Now I'll tell you why I think HDL is a timeless tv series.

1. The Story: The story is timeless because it is not based on ephemer things or events, it is based on existence and time, two things that remain relevant even after thousands of years. It is told in a very philosophical and stylized manner that challenges the viewer, because neither existence nor time are easy to understand so why a story about these 2 concepts would be made easy to comprehend? Metaphors and figures of speech play a big role in this series, because almost every piece of dialogue that is crucial for the plot contains lots of these. That's why, in order to understand the story, it is very important to make the connections between what the characters say and what they really mean. I found this story's structure to be very similar to a 3 act structure that is mostly seen in movies. The first act begins with a flashback that shows us the protagonist, Jang Man Wol (JMW), and the motive behind her position as a CEO at the hotel and it continues with Goo Chan Seong (GCS) 's father who ends up giving his son to JMW in order to save his life. More or less, these first ~40 minutes are here to establish the 2 protagonists, the why behind their presence here, the main location, the main theme: existence and time and the Moon Tree: a symbol of time, life and death. This first act continues until the 2nd episode, somewhere around the 55 minute mark. In this period of time we discover the world of the dead through the eyes of GCS, we see it like a scary place full of scary and terrifying looking people. It's something new for GCS and so it's for us, the viewers, that's why this first act leans more to a horror genre. But everything changes when we enter the second act, which begins when manager No changes GCS's perspective on the world of the dead and he makes the decision of joining the hotel as a manager. We start seeing this new world like everything else, it becomes more 'normal', we understand that the dead people are still like us, the only difference being that their time has stopped flowing. GCS's journey begins in this act, in the 3d episode, when Mago puts the flower that dreams of the moon inside of him. This flower is like a helping hand from Mago even though JMW sees it as a bad thing, that will end up ruining all her plans. We see the first dream of GCS which reveals a side of JMW that is in full contrast with how is her in the present time. The 3rd episode also reveals another important character, Kim Yoo Na (KYN), that will play an important part in the main subplot of the series, along with Ji Hyun Joong (JHJ). Even though KYN's story may seem random for some people, through the dialogues we can find out that KYN is just like JMW: is a person that pays a very high price, a person who is tied up in a place from where she cannot escape. And the last thing about this episode is that it ends with one of the most beautiful comparisons that will reappear in the last episode, the comparison between JMW and the Baekdu Tiger, that foreshadows the end of her story. An important thing to notice from now on is that every subplot that has to come is not random at all, every one of them has a contribution to the main plot, for example: - the subplot about the blind girl that wants to find the baker; it refers to JMW that also is waiting for the person that she loved the most in her past. It seems that she is waiting for him in a romantic way, but in reality she only wants to find him so that she can destroy his soul. - the subplot about the girl in room 13; it discusses a very important topic: the fairness of the gods, something that JMW doesn't believe in (because of her long punishment). Here we get to see how souls are destroyed by Mago and how JMW may end up. -the subplot with the bride; in this part we get to see one of the show's themes: Courage ("You need more courage to let go than to hold on"), the red string and the pair of scissors: a symbol for destiny that will play a big role in the final episode. - plus other smaller subplots that have the purpose of revealing character traits, etc, that don't necessarily affect the main plot but define the characters. Don't confuse these with filler subplots, because they still have a pretty big purpose. In episode 8, the past and the present start mixing up. We are introduced to Lee Mi Ra (LMR), the first connection brought up by GCS and the most hated person by JMW. We get to see her painful past and thus understand the reasons behind her actions. This whole scene is building up to the midpoint of this series. The midpoint is when GCS is abandoned by JMW and has to decide whether to take the medicine that will take his ability of seeing ghosts or not. This is the point of no return for him, because once he commits he has to finish the mission given by Mago, even if he could be killed ("The results are not given by the deities, they're given by humans. It has always been the same''). Also, in this part we get to see who protects who. Even if JMW seems to be stronger than him, he is the one that always protects her. Even when he was almost dead because of that potent curse, he protected JMW from vanishing, not vice versa. The second half of the 2nd act begins when GCS makes his decision of going back to the hotel and not taking the medicine, in the 9th episode. In the same episode, the story of Seol Ji Won (SJW) starts (another important subplot) and we also see the story of the Deity that guards the well, which has the scope of reminding us the stakes, GCS's biggest fears: seeing JMW vanishing. In episode 10 happen many things, Yeon Woo (YW) 's and LMR's paths cross and they become lovers (from enemies in the past), because of Mago and JMW gets to see him too after a very long time; the story of SJW continues and we see how bad a person he is; GCS sees his mother for the first time, but as a ghost and also we get to see the book "Being and Time" by Martin Heidegger (which, I think, is also one of the things that inspired this show). The next episode brings up the story of GCS's friend, Sanchez, a story that will play a big part in the end (I'll explain later). This episode reminds us of one of the themes, that of courage. You'll see that the scene with Sanchez and Veronica is pretty similar to the scene with JMW and GCS at the end, both pretend to be strong in front of their loved ones and try to hold back the tears so that their partners won't be even more heartbroken. The 12th episode is a special one because we get 2 very meaningful scenes: - the first one, about the Sanchez and Veronica and the child whose life was extended by his parents subplots, where we get to see why GCS chooses in the end to let JMW go to the afterlife, instead of making her drink the wine again (because he doesn't want to extend JMW's life just for his sake), and why he left Korea (because he didn't want to end up like Sanchez, he didn't want to make 'dumb' things for his lover that passed away). In short, he doesn't want to become like the people JMW hates the most. - the second one, the dialogue at the end of the episode, makes us realize that GCS will be the only one that will remember JMW's existence, in this lifetime. This is because the 'petals are falling over him', where the petals mean nothing else than JMW's memories, her life. Episode 13 brings some twists, especially in the JMW's beliefs. She learns that you don't feel better by watching your enemy die in pain (thing that will influence the climax in ep. 14) and, at the end of the episode, she questions whether GCS is Go Chung Myung (GCM) 's reincarnation or not. This whole battle that is in JMW's head makes her weaker and changes her a lot, especially in the first half of episode 14 where she kills GCS in her thoughts. The climax is at the end of the 2nd act. It's the moment when GCS saves JMW and tells her how she can finally be at peace. Listening to the other side of the story was the key to continue her life. In other words, she took the wrong path in life when she was so eager to take revenge, fact that lead her to being stuck in time, and the only way to resolve this was to, metaphorically speaking, turn back the time (that's what GCS helped her do) and see the other point of view. The climax is straight to the point and does not prolong the things (some say that it fell short, but I think it had just the perfect length, because their story together was in the past and it's no use in having a long present time scene too). The third and final act begins after JMW is freed by Mago. In the last 2 episodes we get to see the stories of the JHJ, Kim Seon Bi (KSB) and Miss Choi. Everyone ends up emptying their grudges and leaving to the afterlife in peace. This 3rd act has an acceptable duration, of ~2h, which is more or less 10% of the duration of the series, because it doesn't cause ending fatigue (in my opinion). The final episode ends the first main subplot, the story of JHJ and KYN, and it overall leaves the viewer with a feeling of emptiness. We get to see the scissors again and we realize that GCS and JMW are still connected. Plus, in the scene where they see the winter together, they rotate clockwise around the tree, a fact that means that they traveled in a future where they are together, not in the past. The ending scene at the library brings back the comparison between JMW and the Baekdu Tiger and we realize that we had the answer to her story all along. And finally, the scene where they’re in the park together, is purely GCS’s imagination. Notice that the look of the location is very similar to that of the painting (lots of natural elements, sunny day, and JMW who comes at GCS just like the tiger did when he entered the painting) and the voice over dialogue who is saying that they wish to meet in a future life (we know that they will meet, because Mago told us that when JMW crossed the bridge). (No comments about the cameo since it doesn’t affect the story, sorry :)) )


2. The audio: The music is timeless because there are not only songs sung by various artists, but there are also melodies without lyrics, which in my opinion can touch the viewer’s soul even more. Simple melodies without lyrics can survive longer periods of time due to their simplicity. HDL makes perfect use of the 12 OSTs and the BGMs. They combine them in such a way that it becomes easy over time to remember some scenes just by hearing the melody play. Most of the time there will be a BGM playing instead of an OST because BGMs amplify the actor’s performance and emotions better, while OSTs tend to ‘distract’ the viewer’s attention sometimes. One of the main soundtracks is Beethoven’s ‘Moonlight Sonata’ that was beautifully remixed so that it can blend into the story. ‘Moonlight Sonata’ is a leitmotif for JMW’s story and it plays about every time when we get to see JMW and the moon together, or JMW and GCM. Also, I have to include in this section the dialogues. They’re very differently mixed compared to other series (from what I’ve heard), they’re very isolated from the ambient sound and sound so crystal clear.

3. The cinematography: The look of HDL is timeless mainly because of lighting and color grading. The fantasy story gives permission to the cinematographer to push the look to an extent where not many series are able to get, because the scope is not to make something that looks and feels real, the scope is to make something that looks stunning and fabulous. (I found it funny in some way, that the colors are so vivid, yet the story is centered on the world of the dead :)) ) The lens choices, the camera angles and compositions are always on point. The close ups transmit lots of emotions, the wide angles perfectly show the beautiful sets and the dutch angles… they contain so many more emotions that the standard close ups.


4. The actors and their performance: The acting is timeless because of the direction this series took. Almost every line of dialogue is said in a formal, solemn tone, that suits the theme of existence and time the best. Ji-Eun and Jin-Goo played their role beautifully and managed to remain as a memorable couple. I want to specify here why GCS is the ‘better fit’ for JMW to GCM’s detriment. GCM made JMW be punished for 1300 years, he wanted to be together with her even if he knew that it was a dangerous thing, he put himself first and thus risked everyone’s life. He is the opposite of GCS. GCS put JMW first and even if he wished to be together with her in this lifetime he knew that it would be painful for her to continue living like this, he took care of her and did everything even if he knew he was in danger. By letting her go, he won her back. That is the difference between GCS and GCM: courage. ("You need more courage to let go than to hold on").


And that’s why, for me, Hotel del Luna is the best series out there. I know I missed so many things but if you want to talk more with me or have any questions about HDL you can message me on instagram @shadowhero_ . Thanks for your attention and I hope I made you see HDL in a better way :))

tzveeble This is so beautiful, an exquisite work of art!!! Meaningful, thought through philosophical concepts, incredible acting, photography, music. My G-d, how much talent there is, such a gift to the world.

Tzveeble I am watching this for the second time, and now I see the incredible colours, angles, subtleties in expression, and, and, and... This is an amazing work of art, so so beautiful, a mixture of operetta and poetry, profound philosophical meaning and light hearted heart warming emotion. I stand in awe! Even if it was twice as slow I would savour every moment infinitely!

Tina Slow, but still amazing.

This is the first kdrama I've seen that excelled on both make-up and wardrobe. The consistency was kept throughout...bravo!

We all know how kdramas end so I won't even mention that, but when the plot was good, it was really good. The cast was also phenomenal, a d they made-up for most of the problems in the storyline with their brilliant acting.

It was a memorable watch for me (8/10)

Penggemar Asing Hotel De Luna is a heart warming romantic comedy centred around an unlikely pair; a 1000 year old ghost bound by her deep grudges Jang Man-Wol, and a young hotel manager Koo Chan-Sung whose future was given in exchange for his father’s life. The story starts off light heartedly but quickly delves into heavier themes, as we see the things some ghosts experiences before their deaths. The show alternates between these sides to show the growing connection between the main leads, and slowly reveal the dark past of Jang Man-Wol. Along the ride there are numerous subplots that flesh out the supporting cast of hotel staff and Koo Chan-Sung’s friends which also progress the main plot indirectly. The final episodes are quite touching, as we see how forgiveness and love can heal our deep mental scars and allow us to move on. Overall, the watching experience was filled with light warm moments and a few suspenseful ones. It’s a healing show that I recommend people watch, especially those weary from kdramas filled with non-stop deceit and betrayal.

Thank you to the Hong sisters for writing, Oh Choong-hwan for directing, and all the actors for making this drama <3

JB all i can say diffinitly it is one of my most favorite k-drama series..I really 2x like the storyline until the ending part which is i cried a lot I'll hope TVN will make sequel season 2 which is Hotel In Blue Moon?...

SarahBelle I won’t say this is one of the best k-dramas. It took me two tries to get through the very first episode because I found it very slow moving. However, I stuck with the show until the end.

I don’t think that the actual story in itself was particularly special. But the actors, especially IU, did an amazing job bringing life to the script. I thoroughly enjoyed the cinematography… it was very aesthetically pleasing. Obviously, I was also obsessed with IU’s outfits.

Aside from that, while I think the show had its good moments and I found it very entertaining, I wouldn’t say I was particularly drawn into it. Sometimes the episodes and plot points would drone on. And there wasn’t anything really surprising in the story overall.

Raph chinnie I don't know why the drama is overrated,a friend of mine introduced this movie overhyping it,I felt glad to watch IU after seeing her in Moon Lovers,but when I started it,it was so dull,I still continued even till episode 8,i still don't get it interesting,I think it's because of the male lead that is why I am not enjoying it when he filmed my absolute boyfriend I started hating him,my friends kept wondering why I don't like it knowing fully well that I find every kdrama that comes my way interesting but this time around it was bad,I saw my Lee Joon GI only in episode 3,it would have been better if he was the male lead.

Luna I think about the scriptwriter who wrote this. It feels like underneath the surface of this fantasy story, it’s really about how a person shutting up her heart after a trust issue/betrayal from her lover. The break up broke her. After a very long while she met another man but was wary of accepting it. She had been living a long time wallowing in the hurt, and instead of being a loyal and brash girl who acted on impulse she had grown into a cold and calculative person on the surface. The new man reminded her of the last and she wondered if she should reach out for another chance in love. And when things seemed to be heading up, she realised that her first lover was always there, watching her without her knowing.

I am very touched every time I think of this concealed story.

Unfortunately the drama is ruined by very bad acting by the non-leads. If you can overlook a bad supporting cast, this drama is still enjoyable.

Miena I like the synopsis and casts. It’s catchy till the end, not boring at all. IU, she’s so pretty with all beautiful dresses, I really like her costume. The acting of IU and Jin Goo is so good especially they look good together. The end scene is the most practical, the director chooses the right choice. It’s so touched, even they are not together at the end but they can meet in the dream because they dearly love each other.

Malot Here and now feeling crazy after watching HDL in Netflix. I miss all the characters. I miss the sceneries. I miss the story. I wish there's a Season 2.

vitz this drama IS AN ART. It's an easy watching. Don't take the horror seriously even if it might get comfortable. EP 1 might be a drag in the beginning, but it builds up to better and better

the score and the color helped you calmed down, IU is also there to reassure you feel safe and comfortable.

I think this is number 1 drama, nothing is like this. If you like the concept of karma, reincarnation like a devout Buddhist, you can understand this drama better.

I really like Sageuk sequences, LeeDoHyun stole the scenes. IU is the main carry. YeoJinGoo will make you laugh

the OST is so good, some of them are like Disney vibes, that's why this show is magic

Mike Wow! Incredibly emotional final episode, and for me, a satisfying ending. This is a perfect example of how you make an emotional sad ending feel like a hopeful, good-feeling ending. IU was incredible, and cast, production, screenplay and direction did a great job. This was a big production with a complex story. The last episode left me emotionally-drained, and sad to see the end of the drama. I'll just have to watch it again. IU is added to my list of favorite korean actresses.

Mike Just started watching, completed disc 1 dvd, another drama I'm loving. I'm not into ghosts/scary films, but IU and Yeo Jin Goo are great and the story overcomes the scary parts such that I'm not frightened at all, but rather moved emotionally by the storyline. The music has made me using tissues already in touching scenes. IU has been added to my list of favorite korean actresses, that gets longer and longer the more korean dramas that I watch. I'm not into fashion but IU's beauty along with beautiful dresses and fashion are stunning.

Zeus I really liked this drama but i do not feel totally hooked on it!

Nevertheless outstanding acting of all the characters, IU as always extremely pretty and great performance but i watched this drama of Yeo Jin Goo, to me a great talent even though he is so young of age. And i was not disappointed, again he nailed it, stunning looks and great acting.

I lab IU My favourite drama hotel del Luna I love how Yeo Jin Goo acts and without many skinships or kiss scenes his chemistry with iu is overflowing.

Youngk IU is the perfect Manwol, periodt. I love her chemistry with Lee Dohyun!

AJ An outstanding drama. Great screenplay, beautiful cinematography, and sound acting all around -- including from the secondary characters. No wonder it is being adapted into a musical, as well as an American TV series.

M IU gave a memorable performance here, although her chemistry with Jingoo was a bit lacking imo. I'm waiting for Hotel Blue Moon with Kim Soohyun please? :D

Mimik For me no other actress can replace IU as Jang Man Wol. I only watched this drama because of her, the success and high ratings is because of IU and Jingoo. They are a perfect match. OSTs are amazing

Suri Do you want to give your soul a good Netflix treat? Title - Hotel Del Luna ( from the same director of ‘Doctors’ and Start-Up) My reviews – 1. The drama's flow and every plot are excellent. Because of the well-balanced background music and background songs with rich visuals and the plot line, it will bond your emotions along with the story. 2. Some of the bits are quite useful for people's self-reflection/ introspect (things like "letting it go," "reconsidering grudges," and so on) 3. Sometimes you may need to close your eyes ( disturbing and scary scenes ) but worth go through this as well Enjoy watching Hotel Del Luna

Jerry This was an OK, drama. The acting from the bartender, front desk clerk and the hostess was Excellent. IU plays a victim great, but, not a villain! Actually, I believe Seo Yea-Ji would of done a better job at playing Man-Wol. If you haven't seen her watch "It's Okay, Not to be Okay" Outstanding Drama. I never start a drama expecting anything, everyone is different and of course some better than others. I agree IU's wardrobe was out of this world. I thought the best acting came from P.O. I would recommend this Drama for all to see, but, can see why many of you didn't finish it. I don't believe this drama is in my top 100 viewed. But, just one person's opinion. Well, it's on to "Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha", now that an Actress. :)

Timothy I saw this pop up on Netflix, and I remembered hearing that it was quite popular while it was airing. Plus, IU as the lead? Count me in. I started watching immediately, and I'm glad that I did. Now, I do agree with a lot of the other posts about the plot becoming a bit repetitive in the middle and the leads maybe not having the most spectacular chemistry. I think with improved pacing and some rearranging of certain plot points, the writers could have elevated the romantic tension and made the middle episodes feel more dynamic and surprising. That aside, the overarching storyline was so beautifully rendered and portrayed, and there were so many poignant moments and scenes that had me brimming with emotions. I loved all of the central characters, and IU especially was absolutely stunning, both her acting and her visuals. I binged the entire series this past week and I loved it so much, and I think you will, too, if you give it a chance.

Fadila the first episode was great and then it got boring and then good again ( when iu thought that chang sung was chung myung) and then it got boring again. I only continued watching it for IU and her outfits and her scenes with her first love. jingoo is a good actor ( i don't think anyone will disagree with that) but I don't think he was right for the role. his best scenes are the scenes when he is not trying to delivere romantic lines ( his breaking down scene? amazing! his acting when the ghost posssed him? AMAZING) but his delivery in romantic scenes were flat & i just didn't believe him. chang sung is already a boring character and his lack of chemistry with IU just made it worst. lee dohyun in the other hand, stood out for me in this drama. chung myung is a coward & i don't think we meant to like him but leedohyun made me fall in love with his character. the way he looked at IU the whole drama, i was in ' aww' their chemistry just have this 'sparke' it's beautiful, passionat, electric and I love everyscene of them together. even tho I shipped them, i didn't want them to end together because duh but i hoped for at least a final conversation between them. they both waited 1300 for each other ( one to kill him , the other to explain himself) i wish they talked, i wish we saw IU's character going through some angst when she realize that the firefly was him all along. i wish there were more angst in this drama tbh but this is obviously just a preference. i didn't like how all the ghosts in the hotel cleared their grudge in the 2 last ep. i wish one of them went away in the middle of the show so we can feel sad about them. i have lot of opinions about this show but overall, it's an average show. the good side about it is the acting, the outfits, the music, the production, IU's beauty. everything about this show look beautiful & rich

unknown Hotel Del Luna is always the best drama ever!!

Vinika People saying that this is bad drama because there were not many lovey dovey scene of main couple for them just get lost ...This drama is not your cheesy rom com. This drama have lot of feeling and also perfect ending which is very rare in fantasy genre. This drama is not overhyped.If you are planning to watch it , definitely go for it but remember it is not rom com

April Glad I gave this drama a second chance. I don't know why some didn't feel the connection between the two leads but i really felt that and I love them both. They are great actors.

non i really wanted to complete this show but i can't no matter how many times i try to go back. I don't feel any spark between the leads and i ended up wanting to see lee do hyun more also mina and p.o too. And the ghosts storylines were also fun but like i've seen so many shows with them hwayugi,master's sun so it wasn't that much of an amazing experience for me, and how the usual fantasy k-drama plotlines go i.e one of the main leads has to die is also not enjoyable anymore, not sure if the plot was kinda predictable or boring but yeah it went within that flow. IU's fashion was killer but that's the only thing i end up remembering whenever i think ab this show. The osts though are suberb

Kris Really enjoying the ghosts. One thing I think it’s rotten some of the vengeful ghosts get exterminated when they were initially victims. It’s scary how one mistake could be the end. Only on #7.

k-addict The drama caught my interest because of the cameo of Kim Soo-Hyun in Ep 16. I played with the thought to watch only the last episode, but dropped that idea after hearing many times that IU's wardrobe is amazing in here and watched from beginning till end. I was bummed that KSH appeared only for 30 sec after the credits, but at least these did not disappoint xD.

Anyway, IU's wardrobe is absolutely stunning, as is her performance, which is a good reason for you to watch it. As many of the commentators have mentioned, i didn't find the chemistry between OTP here that gripping either. Overall, I don't think Hotel del Luna is a love drama. If you don't treat it as such and therefore don't have any expectations towards that, but regard it as touching stories about a hotel that takes care of its guests - unsatisfied souls - and helps them to make it to the other side. This in an incredibly aesthetic and very fitting setting, great CGI, a thoroughly likeable cast and beautiful OST and as mentioned gorgeous dresses (huge applause for the creative team of this show!).

If Chan Sung’s relation with Man Wol would have been designed completely platonic the drama would have been perfect.

Jimmy Hotel del Luna is no doubt the best K drama in ghost/spirit related story. Ever since i finished watching this, i tried to find a similar fantasy type drama like this, but none ever give me the same satisfaction.

Man Wol and all the main hotel's staff that bring the story from scary, loveable, laughable and cryable. Everybody has dark past and bad memories, but the drama doesn't show condemnation, except for the evil spirits.

My suggestion is that you pick 10 dramas with fantasy/ghost related to watch including Hotel del Luna, but save Hotel for the last, because it is always nice to save for the best. Otherwise, your disappointment for other movies will be very huge. Just my two cents.

Quekeke please make season 2..but for the past life story

NH Spoiler: This drama kind of remind me of Master's Sun, as the main point of the hotel is to help ghosts with unfinished business. I love the dark pasts of all hotel staffs. They were all painful memories.. one thing that lacks from this drama is lovey dovey scenes of Man Wol and Chan Sung. They were super cute. Should have included a few more cute scenes. But the ending is so sad. Sad, but that's how it should ended. I mean she needs to go for her to move on.. i think they should include a clip of their reincarnation where they are together. Lol i just love them so much.

IU's wardrobe is also unforgettable, they were all gorgeous. IU is so pretty too, her hair, makeup etc..

Recommended!

PT Try watching this drama! This will definetely make you cry and laugh! LOL .... This drama has a wonderful story. The casting was amazing! Really recommend this to who love fantasy drama!

KST I just finished watching this drama. Hotel del luna. What a beautiful fantasy! This is the best dark fantasy created by Hong sisters. I really love to the plot story. The main cast IU and Yeo jin goo do a marvelaus job along with other characters. I really love to the music of this drama. Osts are really fabulous! Specially punch 's 'Another day'. I really recommend this series to those who love fancy series as a kdrama lover. Try watch this! This may kill your boredom! Fighting!!!

KST I just finished watching this drama. Hotel del luna

Nikki If you do not like fantasy k-dramas this is not for you. I will give this k-drama a rating of 7/10. It was a decent k-drama, but definitely overhyped and overrated. The cast did a fantastic job but the storyline was a bit meh. Would I re-watch this k-drama? No. There were some emotional scenes and we could see each character's development and even though this is supposed to be a romantic k-drama there was not much of romance. If I remember correctly there was one kiss scene. I expected a kiss scene at the end which I think would make the ending more emotional and better because the ending was not so great. The first few episodes was fun to watch then it got a bit repetitive with the ghosts. Overall, 7/10.

The OSTs for this K-drama were top tier 10/10.

Chyaiiae If you are looking for chemistry for sure you will dislike this drama, but the plot, the story, the lesson is powerhouse.... I can't wait for more drama like this

jean i just finished this drama marathon. a beautiful yet painful story. somehow, it makes me feel like something is missing from me.

Ana I just want justice for Gu Cheong Myeong

Sofia Jabrani To those who are complaining : Not every drama is about chemistry and romance. This drama had so many touching moments, so many beautiful stories, so many relatable situations. All those characters made us smile and cry. The writers have created such a beautiful world and you are complaining about the love story ???

Star Listening to the OST hits different, I miss this drama ?

dan i don't really like this drama, most of the episode i had to skip it like all the part, don't get me wrong i love iu but this drama was not it. i hardly enjoy this drama :(( I'm more interested in lee mi ra storyline and her romantic moment with detective yeon woo

Nazeem Miss this drama so much. It's still hurt

Somebody Loved the main couple, IU and Yeo Jin-Goo so much they looked so good together

Denyliee Don't get me wrong..I ship IU and Lee Do Hyun more here. I had to skip some romance parts of Man Wol and Chansung, it's kinda boring though. What kept me on going is IU. She portrayed her role here perfectly and the acting was superb. I just don't like her partner here. And again this is just based on my own opinion.

MT first of all, sorry for my bad english. so after reading a couple of comments you guys have written, i just realized that i wasn't the only who stopped at eps. 8/9! but because i really love IU, a couple of months later, i decided to continue the drama and lemme tell you something: I Tried So Hard To Finish It. i accidentally saw a stunt man, i saw some of the crews closing the door? i know it's just a drama, and nobody is perfect but how could they made it so carelessly!! the plot is good, but you might need to try hard to not get bored. their acting are pretty good. tbh the reason why i wanted to watch this drama was because (like i said) i'm a fan of IU. so don't get me wrong, I Can't Take My Eyes Off her. unfortunately, the carelessness of the crews were so.....bad!!

Alexey Some people really like this, but this is just not my cup of tea. It feels lifeless and blunt for me. The pacing is too slow, and it's not getting better. Every scene is so long it's super boring. Kdramish songs are super annoying as well. Like, directing is just very bad. No matter what "misteries" are in it, it all just doesnt work for me, and I couldnt take it after episode 7 somewhere. The Goblin series had some kind of similarity in its basis, yet still managed to handle the topics of death and all that after life things MUCH better and more gently, yet giving it a feel of something massive, while here... I dont know. So much of shots with just two characters in it. I feel like only 10 people are living in the world of this drama. It's not true, but you got me. As I said earlier, feeling lifeless. Maybe it's directing. Although MLFTS was a masterpiece from the same director.

Rocket IU rocks as a hotel owner. Yeo Jin-goo is her trusted manager. Good team work! IU, you rock!

GhostWhisperer I love this drama so much. I literally watched it more than 10 times lol (I might be crazy xD) It might due to the fact I like this type of story. I don't like too complicated drama and this one is fun and simple. I love and recommend this drama for everyone who new to k-drama because this one is my first k-drama!

kpopandgrime I'm going to keep it real and 100%; I rarely drop any kdrama (like i finsih 99.9% of kdramas because im so in love with them and i think its the best thing ever created by mankind), but i just had to drop this drama after 8-9 ep.It just werent for me personally.

with that being said I DO RECOMMEND this drama to anyone whos reading this because I know this drama has the potential to be in someones top 3 kdrama of all time. I did say i was going to keep it real and there u have it. this drama was visually stunning, beautiful and out this world ; this why so many people love it and even for me it has one of the best visuals ever in a kdrama. also IU visuals were breathtaking; shes too pretty and her acting just as good and maybe better.  

theres a few people who are on the same wave lenght as me down below in the messages esepecially @april if u scroll down enough. great comment!!!. also @kiki @Deko @pinkonmonsta and more recently @H with a great insight!!!!

Reasons I dropped the drama (a review of what me and others thought):

1) got really boring in the middle; dont get it wrong the first few episodes were LITTT.

2) Not the plot line we had wished for; for me after 8-9 ep I felt like the drama wasnt going anywhere. with this drama being total of 16 ep surely by the 9th ep ; there should be some direction to the story.

3) the CGI was top notch but the plot was not and lacking in some way

4) held out for 9 ep hoping it would eventually get better ; but we was let down. just the same old ghost comes to the hotel, then the leads solve the problem and then unto the next ghost. I personally couldnt take that after a few ep of that cycle.

I kept it as real as I could; hopefully I havent hurt no ones feeling, and if u still reading this u a LEGEND!!!

Love From London

Miss Intan Baiduri Badri love this Korean drama so much. I'm never watching Korean drama before but fall in love with this Hotel De Luna..may be it is a ghost story I think.. hope have the continuing with season 2

Love it OMG I loved this drama! I love IU and watching this is just so funny. I wish there was another season of this

S J OMG I didn't watch 9-13 but I felt the end wasn't easy to let,it go still wanting a replay

Antonette I wonder whose hand is sticking on Yeo Jin-goo’s arm (poster).?

Syahada I like this drama..this is one if my favourite dramas.i will give 5 stars for this drama.??⛤⛤⛤⛤⛤

Bebang Still can't get over with the ending I love it, such a masterpiece.

H I loved the first few episode but then it just got really boring in the middle. I would say it was not the plot line i had wished for it to be. It was dissapointing to see that in the end she hated Ko Cheong Myung when i thought they had more to their love life. Although i did cry towards the end bc of Ko Cheong Myung's love for her. Still wasnt what i wanted it to be though.

logan5 having watched IU first with My Mister and then here .... she's a very agile actor.

I Wilkins Absolutely ruined a decent idea for a show with the unbelievable love story. First 20 mins of ep1 was good, thoughourly enjoyed it but the bullsh*t after was just terrible. Kickass female who's killed God knows how many people or ghosts with zero compassion for a 1000 years gets smitten by a completely smug dipsh*t within two days. He treat her likes he's her boss and she just goes with it?? Terrible bloody viewing and I'm male ffs I'm no feminist by any stretch but I can't believe for one second that 1000 year old female with her background would crumble so quickly into being a pathetic mess!

Jennie (SPOILERS!!!) I can't stop crying while thinking about some last episodes. I still think that this drama has a sad ending. Yes, we saw their future in their new life, but they are not the same characters as before that reincarnation. So it means that it's very sad and heartbreaking for Chan-sung to live for his rest of his life alone without people he loved and cared before. This drama almost has the same formula as Goblin, making the main character live alone in the end being left by the person they loved the most. Please tvN, do another drama like this!

evanessa I am very careful about k-drama,but this drama was briliant!!!!Sorrow,sadness,nostalgic,memories,love.All of them paid big prise for love.For me it sad ending, I was waiting for another end.The clothes she was wearing were wonderful.This drama remind me Master Sun,except for the end.Good work!!!

pinkonmonsta It’s a good drama, but not the best one. The first episodes are entertaining but the later ones are just bland for me and somehow gets boring. But it’s an okay watch! If you expect many romantic scenes, you wont find it tho. This is more like a life lesson kinda drama

Deko The CGI is really top notch!

No-el Not for me. Too much special effects and over acting.

dolphinhamster One of the best drama for me. I’m glad that IU choose this kind of drama. I was waiting for her next project after My Mister. Those who think Jang Man Wol character doesn’t fit IU’s nice image doesn’t know how great her acting is. They should watch The Producer too to see IU as Cindy, another mean character.

Choosing Yeo Jin Goo as the lead is not a wise choice. He is a great actor but he looks quite young to play as Goo Chan Sung. The should cast someone a bit mature to play the character so that there’s no awkwardness romantic interaction between the leads.

The romance part, I guess the writer try to keep it minimal, as to focus on the storyline the most. Just like in any Japanese drama, you will see less interaction between the couple but you notice the feeling is there. I like it like that. Cause I couldn’t imagine IU and Yeo Jin Goo as the best couple, compare to IU-Lee Joon Ki, IU-Kim So Hyun and IU-Woo Young.

teebone Man Wol and Chun Myung matched so well and I feel their chemistry so much. Their story was so sad.

Tsunderee If ever there will be season 2 pls replace yeo jin goo as IU partner. There is no chemistry. As in romantic episode the leading man was a robotic act. Hoping for ji chang wook, park seo joon lee min ho nam ju yook and kim soo hyun much better

Somebody Not everyone can understand how good this drama is. It is so beautiful and clean without those unnecessary and stupid love triangle or love hate relationship and other stuff. Watch it with clear mind and enjoy.

Kiki Really really want to like this drama but gave up. Only watch because fanmade video on YT made it look promising. This drama was indeed so beautiful. IU visual is no joke and her outfit was also real nice. YJG didn't do anything for me. Another good thing was LJG and KSH cameo.

April Visually stunning, but just not interesting. This show is very pretty to look at, has a fun idea, and has great actors, but I gave up after forcing myself to watch 2 episodes in hopes that it would get interesting eventually. The main girl is a bland and unlikable character. There is nothing quirky, interesting, or charming about her. She's pretty and that's it. The main guy is fine.

The show tries too hard to be serious. I think it would have worked better with more of a lighthearted atmosphere. They made a big dramatic send off for a guy who the audience barely knows. I saw him for a few minutes so I naturally am not emotionally connected to him and can't get into a big, long emotional goodbye.

Other people seem to like it. That's why I hung in there as long as I did. But it's just not for me. I don't want to be bored and forcing myself to watch something that just isn't interesting hoping with every episode it will finally become good.

If you like it then great! Lots of people do. Maybe you will as well.

VeeVeeVee It took me 10 months to finally watch this show and the long wait was totally worth it!

There were moments where I cursed the Hong sisters, especially about how they resolved Ko Choeng Myung's character, but the last 2 episodes made up for them. Admittedly, I felt that they've gone lazy (once again. yeah, these sisters are really a hit or miss) in writing the second lead's ending as they did not want to overshadow the male lead, and that still feels true till today. The lack of scenes and physical comfort for KCM in his final episode shows that I might be true. How would anyone believe that the short time Man Wol and Chan Sung had together could outweigh the 1300 years Man Wol spent loving and resenting Choeng Myuk?! The writers made it look so easy to toss your one great love over someone new.

Oh well, you can't really blame the sisters for defending their ML. Like us, they might have not seen it coming that the second lead will be this series' scene stealer. They got to make Yeo Jin Goo shine brighter as much as possible, he's the seasoned actor after all. And props to the rookie Lee Do Hyun! He really took the main characters' spotlight whenever he appears. And he terribly crushed everyone's hearts with his sad ending.

Good thing the Hong sisters made up for that writing glitch by how they've beautifully weaved each of the ghosts' stories and how each one had a great resolution. Not every drama takes time to resolve each side character's story and this one has got to be the standard for how side characters should be given justice.

The cinematography, OSTs, outfits, cameos, and top-notch acting by everyone (except for Sanchez, lol, love you still, rich pizza guy), were all just bonuses to this masterpiece. It won't be a surprise if this would grab awards at Baeksang along with Crash Landing on You and When the Camellia Blooms. Top tier dramas of 2019 indeed! <3

Alan The sad thing about IU being so good at both singing and acting is that the more awesome dramas she stars in, the less awesome songs she makes per year.

Aya This drama has been on my "to watch" list ever since I heard about the premise, but surprisingly it took me this long to actually watch it. I enjoyed it very much. The setting, the imagery and the fantasy element were all beautifully done. I loved Jang Man Wol and although I initially thought that an older actress might have done better in the role (someone like Jun Ji Hyun or Gong Hyo Jin), but by the end of the drama I can't think of anyone better. Jang Man Wol is sassy and savage and somehow the contradiction with IU's angelic appearance worked wonderfully. With pain in my heart, I will admit though that Yeo Jin Goo was definitely miscast. It seems like a trend lately to cast really young actors in mature roles. Like Kim So Hyun in Radio Romance. Unfortunately, even though Yeo Jin Goo did a wonderful job, there is no way that he can give an aura of a close to 30 year old guy. Throughout the whole drama it felt like a high school student was pretending to be a manager. It's a pity, especially since the rest of the drama was so well cast. I absolutely loved Seo Yi Sook as Ma Go Shin.

Overall, the story is interesting and will definitely keep your attention for 16 episodes. There were a lot of funny moments and heartbreaking moments, so it's definitely not boring.

A lot of people seem to want a season two with Kim Soo Hyun and if it is made, I would definitely watch it. However, I don't think that it's absolutely necessary for the story and it will feel like a repeat instead of something fresh and new.

Agatha Don’t get me wrong, I like IU as an idol and an actress. However, in this series, her character annoys me at times. It’s like Jang Man Wol is not suited to IU’s image. The problem is not even the acting skills because she’s great. But, being so serious and holding so much grudge is not IU. I tried hard to appreciate JMW, but it just felt wrong. IMHO, Suzy or Lee Min Jung would have been a better fit.

Kudos to PO and Mina tho! I really love them. They helped me big time on holding on to this drama. Scenes are great too, especially those flash backs. ❤️

CV Thank you so much @Emma Rae for your explanations. Now i get it. It's sad. Honestly, i was bored watching this at the early episodes. I even stop watching on eps 2, and watch other dramas. But i gave it another chance, bcs as an experienced drama lover, i knew that some dramas need times to you to feel the flow and some times it took more than 4 episodes. And yep it is! After i reached episode 5, it's good! I started to like IU now heheh. Better than Goblin and DOTS (imo).

Kkk Masterpiece.. Must watch for me

hana i really love iu’s acting skills even she is an idol. this drama has such an interesting plot and istg, its worth watching. it makes you cry, scared, laugh.

Happy Se So captivating.. amazing drama. Made me laugh loud and cry silently watching it.. Thank you for the amazing drama.

lovethisdrama hoping the next drama of soo hyun The Blue Moon is real.. OMG.. I really want to watch it... proud of all actor especially gun mo character is amazed me the most.. she can act any kind of character on this drama .. love jin goo ??

eyevan I can't believe how many times I've cried while watching this kdrama, definitely one of my favorites. hoping for a season 2 with hotel blue moon

Anonymous In one of the episode old mago tells man woel is not dead yet, only the time is frozen. Which means she never tasted the death and then why she has to return underworld? Seriously please answer me. And why can't they leave together since she wasn't death and Chang sung has to see her off.

mary I was torally captivated with Lee Do hyun here. I hope he gets another drama with IU in the future they will make great chemistry too. I can feel it

Rosie 2 although their romance scene kiss is only two, but I can felt their matured chemistry between jmw and kcs ❤️ I really miss them.. srsly this dama is superb rather than other drama that overrated.. just embraces, laughter is enough for matured relationship ❤️

Rosie feel so sad for ku chan seong.. He sacrifices everything for Jan man wol ❤️ I hove iu and yeo jin goo will have a new romantic drama together someday.. Its may impossible but i really requested to see them reincarnation together. I don't mind if it's just a great glimpsed but is acceptable ❤️ I'm still support them and looking forward for iu next film and yjg next drama... manchan couples?

IUfan I really miss hotel del. Luna. I miss man weol and chan seong One of the best kdrama.. Worth watching. Love u I U Plus the OST i really love it.. It totally breaks my heart

Dramafan Atlast I watched it ...I feel this show is very overrated ?. Everyone's acting is good. All the cameos are also good and they have acted really good. But still it is not that great. And how IU changes clothes in every scene even when it's the same day ?

christina IU had gotten so pretty and mature. This drama gives many actors the opportunity to play different roles and they really did well. One specially worth mentioning is Seo Yi-Sook. Its a drama worth watching. Is Kim SooHyun really considering Blue Moon? I'm looking forward to his new drama.

Roy I hope there will be another episodes for Kim Soo Hyun as CEO of Hotel Blue Moon!

romelyn i miss you so much iu and i love you so much

Erika Vasquez Remember how TVN satisfied our longing heart for the Sunny and Grim reaper love story in another drama "Touch Your Heart"?

If TVN can't offer a second season of Hotel Del Luna. I hope they would also consider giving IU and Yeo Jin Goo another drama with a happy ending. We wanted to see the reincarnation of Jang Man Weol and Ku Chan Seong ?❤️ So please gave IU and Jin Goo another drama with a happy ending, and also this two had a great chemistry that's why people love them so much and im one of it!!!

PLEASE GAVE THIS TWO A CHANCE TO HAVE A ANOTHER DRAMA BEACUSE THIS TWO HAD A GREAT CHEMISTRY THAT'S WHY PEOPKE LOVE THEM SO MUCH AND SHIP THEM TSO MUCH

Allan IU is a living goddess... That's all. She sing, she dance, she acts, she raps... I wonder. What she's all can do???

Jean Hello, I like this drama! though its no that really catchy when in terms of couple thing. But the rest of the drama is funny and heart warming. I've cried in last couple of episode. I really love IU she is superb. I hope they can push through to the hotel blue moon and I hope there is still some touch from HDL. Thats all! To all basher.. well .. chill! hahahha!!

elissia I cried 15 episodes straight, I love Cheong-Myung and Man-Wol so bad, they were meant to be, they are just ill-fated, my heart broke more than a thousand times for them, every flash-back is full of emotions for me, Cheong-Myung stayed by her side from the start to redeem himself, but i love Man-Wol and Chan-Sung too, he healed her in every way, which is awesome. UWU I love everything about HDL honestly. Just wanted to put it out there!

Moon Such a damn good drama ?!! Good job IU, Yeo Jin Go, Good job tvn?.

Najib The drama is really good and nice.every episode was since episode one going becomes better and man wol starting to fall to chan seong but the last episode was really sad watching them off one by one to the afterlife is really heart touching because i was expecting that man wol would stay and live with chan seong but chan seong was left behind lonely.The was good but i felt so sad and can’t get over with it. Im hoping that Hotel Blue Moon would release soon and man wol and chan seong would be there have a good life again.

Mira Mi ra is a doctor like me with same name......I felt so nice...

moonchild everyone complaining about the lack of chemistry ? clearly didnt get the message. this drama wasnt about romance and man weol and chan seong being all lovey dovey and cutesy. it was about man weol and her only. discovering who she is, what she did wrong, accepting her faults and accepting her past, also loving who she is in the present and being able of letting go. her character development alone is enough to fill this drama. seriously give me one character that's like man weol. anyway I still felt the chemistry between man weol and chan seong, they had waaaaay better chemistry than most of the dramas in 2019 where the main aspect was romance but go off I guess. loved every scene they shared and loved how they helped each other grow as a person. definitely gonna rewatch this again, it was so good and every episode was interesting. kudos to the actors for portraying their roles so perfectly.

Daisy They almost messed up the ending. Ep 16 could have ended in 30 mins but there were lots of filler scenes. They could have shown more of their past encounter and why chan seong was the chosen one. Other than that, all other episodes are ok

Ron Waiting for the season2 "Hotel Blue Moon"

K drama forever This drama is incredibly good! I love that it consists of comedy,romance,thriller and mystery. If you are afraid to watch it dont be scared cause the ghosts are not that scary. This drama is soo funny and the plot is perfect. The romance is incredible and i just love IU's acting. The story is also kinda sad but go watch it. This drama is 1000000/10!

Debora IU and Yeo Jin-Goo were a great actor and actress. They have chemistry and I like them a lot!?

Mylene Am i the only one think this drama is boring? It has a vibe of goblin and master's sun which are my most favorite drama but HDL never capture my interest. I just skip most of tge scenes just to finish the drama. To be honest i dont feel any chemistry between the main leads. Their perfirmance as individual is superb but i really do not feel any chemistry between them. What i really like about this drama is the end when kim soo yoon appeared. Just my opinion.

vhea still hoping for the HOTEL BLUE MOON

Alex I was loving the story until I discovered that Chan Sung is not the reincarnation of Cheong-Myung. I felt no chemistry between Man-weol and Chan Sung. I would have preferred for Man Weol to walk together with Cheong-myung through the bridge rather than going back. Though, Chan Sung is considered as a special “alive human” in the series, I think that there’s still no solid connection between him and Man weol (except for the part in Ep 16 where I think they ‘forced’ a connection when the kid who gave Man weol water was supposed to be Chan Sung... I mean what?) compared to Man weol’s more than 1300 yrs of connection with Cheong Myung and even Yeon-Woo. It just doesn’t made sense especially for someone who lived long like Man-Weol. But anyway, that’s only my side. All in all, it’s still a great story but a little poor in character build up. xx

Cheng Man Weol and Chung Myung flashbacks stories are great and at the same time it makes me send. They should end up together but because of some reason, Man Weol hates him. :( I cried when Chung Myung said, IM PROUD OF YOU MAN WEOL.. YOU SURVIVE. I love them! They have a good chemistry. Hoping that someday soon, they will lead in a RomCom Drama. :)

Cheng Done watching. I cried a lot. I hate the ending!! I thought Ma Go will give them a chance and they will end up together!! :( I really love the cast most specially Kim Yu Na and Ji Hyun Joong. I really cried a lot also in their love story. I hope they give them a Kdrama. They have a CUTE CHEMISTRY. I love them both! And also, I shipped IU-LEE DO HYUN than the lead role. Hehe. My heart breaks when they fight and Lee Do Hyun end up dying. "I'M PROUD OF YOU MAN WEOL. YOU SURVIVE." -Ko Chung Myung

Awwww. It hurts! Hoping that someday soon, IU and Lee Do Hyun lead in a RomCom drama. THEY HAVE A GREAT CHEMISTRY! Who's with me?

Marksays Still hoping for season 2 hotel blue moon and lee ji-eun and yeo jin goo story will continue. Please

Riru Still hoping for Season 2!! But will focus on the story of Hotel Blue Moon

MarkSays I hope that Lee ji-eun and yeo jin goo will still continue their story on season 2. ?

Kim I super loved this drama!! I just finished watching it now and I cried a lot omg. This is my first time to comment after watching a lot of kdramas and I really am picky when finding a kdrama but this one totally won my heart!!!! IU is so pretty and they all did a good job with their acting ♥️

But there's also one person whom I fell in love with by watching this, the second male lead role, Lee Do- Hyun!!!!!!! I can't even express how much I loved his acting. IU and him has such a great chemistry than the lead role if Im being honest. Hoping to see him in his own drama soon with IU. Please make it happen! He deserves it! ??

Toyang This drama has set the bar too high, other dramas will have a hard time to keep up. I've watched three dramas since Hotel Del Luna but they all failed to give me the "feels" that I got after watching this drama. It's been almost two months already but I'm still stalking IU and Yeo Jin-Goo on Instagram, rewatching random episodes (I still laugh and cry each time) and listening to the drama's OST. Everything about this drama is perfect!!!

Reign Best of 2019. Made me cry a lot. Finished in 3 days. It means I really love it and I cant stop watching it.

Jmk Omg the lead actress is a whole mood I love her from start to finish especially when she shouts.

Mr.critic No words to describe. If read this comment. Watch it. You can thank me later. Must Watch Drama. 10/10 by Mr.Critic

Fe Hotel blue moon need. Season 2 please

garima And now i want to watch hotel blue moon. Please make season2

RL Enjoyed it until the end. The flashbacks were wrapped up properly. I'm bittersweet about goodbyes so yeah...

syie na please we need season 2 for Hotel Blue Moon. i realy realy love Yeo Jin Goo

Wikani The story concept is little bit like jigoku shoujo...

BlueMoon BEST Drama for 2019 am so glad the Hong Sister didn't mess up (like what they did korean odyssey). Hopefully they will consider doing Season 2 after teasing us with Hotel Blue Moon & cameo appearance of Kim Soo Hyun. the Creepy Hand in Yeo Jin Goo's arm in the poster was not a mistake come on the answer is really obvious Hotel del Luna is surrounded by ghost & am sure the graphic artist put it for fun but how come no one is talking about the skeleton at the window LOL. I really hope IU will win best actress in the drama she has done an excellent job portraying Jang Man Wol. FYI she wrote & sang a song for this drama in ep12 the title song is Our Happy Ending. What really needs to be answer: is the Vacuum Grim Reaper Collector different from Grim Reaper? Also I want to see the rest of God Mago. What shock me the most was the acting of David Lee the psycho killer character is really way different in his role Bring it on, Ghost was really unexpected. Also am happy that Cho Hyun Chul & Kang Hong Suk are becoming famous.

McMidel This movie got me really.....I started it without recommendation though but I'm must say it was worth with. Ain't that about interesting as it can

Vivian I jia this finished this few minutes ago.. I really love it ! Acting 101% Characters are awesome , Its heart melting .. , Comedy and overall .. Looking forward for more dramas .. Good Job Team hotel Del Luna

Lisa This is my first drama from the Hong sisters. Started it just out of curiosity but ended up being completely destroyed by it in the end. It's the kind that grows on you until you just realize that it has completely taken you over. Much credit to Lee Ji Eun (IU) and Yeo Jin Goo. They carried the story sooo beautifully. There's should be no second-lead(ing man) syndrome here. Chung Myung is merely a character to move the story forward, as sad his story may be (but whose wasn't). I guess some viewers found the actor cute (w/c he kinda is).

shin Best drama after Goblin

Chiaki Wth whos hand is that?? In JinGoo's side...

Ellie Man Wol & Choeng Myung back story is really good they should have ended with each other or they could have at least a good conversation before they go, after all why would you made such a strong importance to Choeng Myung's character if in the end you can sustain it. Overall great acting.

I Love Kdrama This drama is good, except the very last ending....

UwU look at the picture i meant the their poster.. beside Yeo jin goo theres a hand ......(rightside) creepy

Hanifa Yeo Jin Goo and IU are the heart of this drama.I love their acting so much. At first time drama telling about ghost life is not such dra I am fond of. But this is incredible beyond my expectation. The plot is consistent and the acting ia awesome. The main roles can move my sense of humanity to feel sad and happy. Some parts of this drama made me smile and laugh. The music blends prefectly for each scene. Really recomended drama

ds007 Petition for a sequel for Kim Soo Hyun as the owner of Hotel Blue Moon

castlin I love IU and Yeo Jin Goo- before starting this drama i told to myself.. good or no good - i will definitely watch it. Well.. i started at Thursday afternoon and i didnt notice that i didnt take a bath nor sleep from the last 17 hours. And my Goodness - Kim Soo Hyun for finale !!!!! The best !!!!! I love this so much.. I love everything in this drama.. as in everything!!!! Super Recommended. I love you IU

Muhammad Nazeem I really hope there will be season 2 and i want the story about man weol. The thing is Hotel De Luna is gone and replaced with Hotel Blue Moon. Probably even if there is a season 2, it must be about Kim soo hyun and not about man weol.

SassyAL21 Part or season 2 please ...

heemi im so glad i finally had the time to watch and finished this drama ??✨ it was a rollercoaster ride indeed. it made me realize alot of things. and i lived in their world this past week. I can truly say this is got to be the best role IU has played so far in her career. IM SOO PROUD OF HER. I will be having a lot of drama withdrawals from time to time. Lee Do hyun just earned another fan. I WILL NOT GET OVER THIS SECOND LEAD SYNDROME ANY SOoon? anyways this was a wonderful journey. I hope we will meet again soon. i will miss the whole gang.

Kdrama Queen Even Gods can be fickle minded. I mean, if they wanna close down Hotel Del Luna why would they want to open another new hotel Blue Moon Hotel ? In that case they should not have close down Hotel Del Luna and let us cry over the many partings. Just a silly storyplot to gain our tears ??

I Love Kdrama This is a good drama but I really don't like its open ending. Maybe they are saving for sequel 2 or maybe most of the fantasy drama like to have such open ending. IU's acting is really good here, as compared to her other older shows.

ilove man weol i love the story.. it has a lesson.. and i also love how they act... specially for IU.. the drama ever.. i love you all.. I wish there's a season 2... i hope man weol still show up in there.. ❤️❤️

hecol are we having a season 2 for hotel del luna

Zen Draggy story, each episode almost one hour and a half which spent much on jus man weol issues. The scene at tree takes most of the time not to mention how many times they repeat the same things. Punishment, deity plans, man weol rage all the same things on loop. Should be better with one hour I think.

KLover Season 2 Please!!!!!! The Best Kdrama ever!!! , I will miss all the cast especially Man Weol. (IU)

Mina Just finished the final episode. I really loved this drama. I can't believe they said there would be no season 2. It's just not fair the way they teased us with the new owner like that. We all know SooHyun is an amazing actor and the follow up season would be just as amazing. A second season would make soo much sense. Anyway, the whole cast was amazing and the way they finished up everyones storyline was really beautiful.

Lunaa Here's my take on this story. First of all letme praise it first. The story was captivating enough for me to follow it. All the actor delivered their role perfectly. IU was gorgeous in this and the story development also develop well. The set, montage, story deliverance are all on point. I would suggest for people to watch it to see such an epic performance from all the crew and actors.

But still, I think not all are perfect. First of all the Man Weol storyline. She suffers all her life, her whole family was killed, then she had to receive punishment waiting to exact his revenge and been played by the deity throughout the 1,300 years only to be given a false sense of hope and lastly need to leave the man he love in the present day. I do think its unfair for her. However, I do understand what writer try to tell. About acceptance and forgiveness. This one just coming from me that I at least want to see some happy closure for her. But still I understand what the story want to tell.

I do find the plot a little bit weak somewhere. I started watching with an expectation it will be like the Master's sun. Then I get how the plot direction. Its more focused on the man weol past just like the pace of goblin if anyone can remember. Meaning all another ghost are just another simple details in the story. However, this is where i felt it started to felt draggy a little bit. If they want to focused on the past, they should tell more details or maybe more scene about the past, but they don't explain more. I swear the talking scene at the tree are taking a really lot of screen time.

Not to mention, the present moment when Man Weol met Chun Myung again, it just passed like that. I get that she forgives him, but at least make it more dramatic since she's been waiting for thousand years. Since they don't show much about the backstory of her past, I cannot felt any rage from man weol character. I don't understand why she hate mi ra so much since they never explain in detail what the princess did in the past and also her subplot with yeon woo.

Also for the ghost guest story, they make it so simple that I really hope for more. For example the seol ji wan story, I though he's supposed to be the villain but ended just defeated like that. Coming from the same writer as Master's sun, I hope they put the same thrill as the ghost stories from the drama, but I realised this story is more about man weol herself.

About the chemistry, I don't know since I never shipped them in the first place. Even after they get together, I think they focuses too much on man weol that make the chemistry kinda sizzle down.

All in all, it's a great drama, thanks for 16 episodes that make my weekend. Gonna miss all the actor especially beautiful IU.

kiki nice series. the lead actors are good but i ship manwol-chungmyung couple than manwol-chansung. :)

there's chemistry in ui and jingoo's characters but i think it's leaning towards platonic for me. like brother-sister or boss-secretary type relationship.

Tsundere Is there another drama series? Hotel Blue Moon? Hoping there will be another. Hotel Del Luna is a rare kdrama series I've ever watched that succeeds almost in every level, where each characters, costumes, scenes, effects firing to make this movie worth watching. I love all characters, their acting so great. IU has developed her acting and she is good, very professional. Same with Yeo Gin Goo, he is great actor, his acting is great but when it comes to romance scene, he seems like a robot. Kim Soo Hyun befits to this character. He is also great in acting and oppa. This Kdrama filled with amazing actors/actresses who truly make this film. Some scenes are hilarious, some scenes excite and thrill me where there were episodes that the two protagonist lacked their eye to each other. Rated high and excellent. Wishing Kim Soo Hyun will be IU next partner or more oppas who are prominent in the entire ASIAN to be seen in the next season. I would suggest the the story for the season two would be more romance with slight hilarious, the newly Hotel owner which is Hotel Blue Moon is rich and has character who will turn his heart to IU or it like beauty and the beast movie. That a man became a beast that IU would fall in love with the beast and became handsome after...etc...or a vampire falls in love with a ghost? Thank you for the director who made this movie worth watching. Overall, this is a great Kdrama I've ever watched.

RevelBlunt I liked the plot until the end, which is a very good thing. Still don't feel the leads have enough chemistry. And I feel the love triangle story to be very meh, I never cry whenever the love story get shown. Like, I couldn't careless who was Man Weol gonna choose between Chung Myung and Chan Seong. Someone already said the things I wanna said about Yeo Jin Goo's and IU's acting, about how robotic YJG and IU's tonality, I agree so much, might add they did improved as episode goes on. Unsurprisingly, the idols acting did get worse as the plot becoming more complex. But, they were still pretty tolerable for me. Mrs. Choi and Mr. Kim's acting are superb, no question about that, I love them the most tbh.

The main strength of Hotel del Luna for me, is the stories of the ghosts. I legit only cry for the ghosts stories. I'm also super thankful that the other three hotel staffs got their disclosure in the end. I LOVE how deep their stories, especially Mrs. Choi's, I cried so hard on her story, I think both of hers and Mr. Kim's stories could still be relevant in today's society. This part of Hotel del Luna reminds me so much of Master's Sun, and I think would be the thing that set apart Hotel del Luna with Goblin.

For the possible season 2, Hotel Blue Moon, someone said it will probably just a copy of the season 1, I personally disagree, since it opens in the modern day, it most likely wouldn't have any veteran ghosts as hotel staffs like Hotel del Luna, and probably have the plot to find the hotel staffs along with the general manager. We don't know the owner(Kim Soo Hyun) would be a bitter and "evil" person like Man Weol or a cool funny guy. I think that kind of plot would be pretty interesting too, and pretty different with Hotel del Luna's plot. The hotel might be starting almost empty too, it would be pretty funny. Anyway rambling over. Bye.

Jm To the Hong Sisters thank you for giving us a Kdrama that tackles more about the value of forgiveness and the effects of remorse and resentments. I do hope that it will be shown to the Philippines because it really have a touch of our culture here especially we value the spirits of our departed ones.

Also, I find the actors and actresses have fulfilled their acting jobs in a superb manner. The series also got more chills as it contain cinematography far from the ordinary series. The musical scores and the rhythm of the sound tracks captured the audiences for sure.

I really do hope that the writers would write another hit kdrama!!!

I will miss not only Man Weol and Chan Seong but also all of the people who worked for Hotel Del Luna!!!

Rina Love the plot, don't like the ending.

Princessa is this drama still on going?

ser Chan Seong and the chemistry was lukewarm. I know Yeon Jin Goo is a good actor. But he's been consistently robotic on romantic dramas. The acting was not horrible. I liked IU facial sensitivity, but her tone can improve.The drama would have been perfectly edited into 8 episodes. There were a lot of product placements and tons of scenes just mulling about with the bgm.

This is a better drama than what the Hong Sisters has done in the past years. It's not all that bad.

YesMe I will watch Hotel Blue Moon if it shows?

Chanseong's If you come to this page, you probably considering to or have watched hotel del luna. And if you're consider about it, let me tell you JUST WATCH IT ASAP! This drama is sooo damnnn goodd.. from the storyline,the casts, the wardrobe, cgi justttt everything..


it really shows you the beauty of love that not really can be seen in much other kdramas.. you'll definetely will have roller coster of emotion too. Me myself don't really think about watch it at first because I don't expect the cast would be matched soooo well with their characters. But, I was wrong and Hotel del Luna is one of my favorite drama so far..


I see that many people mistakenly think that Hong sisters (the writer of this drama) are influenced by Goblin, but that is definetely not the case. The story of Hotel del Luna was supposed to be written for the Master's Sun (Hong Sisters drama that aired in 2013). But they decided not to use it back then because a lot of reasons, and the main one I think is the CGI. Back in 2013, cgi for kdramas is not that common and need lots of cost. While for hotel del Luna as we can see, need so much high tech CGI so they can show the beauty of it. So they decided to change the whole storyline for Master's Sun,which I really enjoy myself too.


[SPOILER ALERT] I actually aready feel the sad ending would end this drama from the beginning, because we know that manwol is not human while chanseong is human and that would make the most "make sense ending" since Chanseong was brought to the hotel to send off manwol. But sometimes when I see how cute they r together, there's part of me hoping that some kind of miracle story would change the ending in midway.. but well, not every love story have a happy ending anyway... just like the Hong Sisters say "this is a love story where happy romance doesn't exist"

I still can't move on from this drama anyway :) Rated 100/10 from the bottom of my heart?

Rinnie Hotel Del Luna gives off an anime vibe. From plot, to the setting down to the characters. Jang Man Weol is the very first character who actually made me say that she's the original kdrama tsundere. I really like her character and the romance pacing is not that fast and not cheesy at all. IU really did great in this drama and made me forget that she started out as a singer. I started to actually like her acting from Scarlet Heart Ryo. Hope she gets more fantasy drama because she's slaying it.

Emma Rae To be honest, watching this drama is like going through adulthood, without any manual but just stringing along in life. It is like we know we’re going go someday, so we’re living our life, every bitter sweet moment. Same as chanseong and manwheol, they living their life as days goes.

The ending was confusing to many. Before i chance upon the hong sister’s interview, i thought it was an open ending (up for imagination) like many who commented here.. but it is a close ending. The real ending, suitable for such deep and meaningful drama.

[Sorry for spoilers] the scene where she turned and look at the camera (on the bridge) shows that she was liberated, free from her 1300yrs resentment. And like MaGo have said, CS will pain a heavy price, and that is to live without the person he loves the most, because MW have taught him everything about the afterworld, except 1 thing, how to live w/o her..

Therefore, the ending about him reading existence and life, which was by his mother, and said that she is here earlier than expected, it’s just him missing her, and that feeling of ease was earlier than he expect. He remembers her embrace, everything that in the last park scene is how it is like in his head..

And to add some hope, we do remember about the scissors, and that he possibly have red string with her, no matter. So the narration concentrate on the hopefulness that hey, they will meet soon. How soon? We never know..

Lastly, hotel blue moon is not to hint for season 2 but more of explaining to viewers that its true there will be new owner and some hot guy who drinks whiskey instead of champage, just to let viewer knows that moon hotel will always be there to guide souls (because some might ask like, if HDL close, where do the ghosts go?)

So to those wanting to watch and wondering if it worth the shot? It is. I shows sacrifice, compromising, love and the art of letting go of things that we love but cant seem to bear..

I love this drama, 10/10.

P/S: why a bouquet of flower? The flowers was given by Mago to souls to guide them right? I felt that Yuna ask for that many, it represents telling him thank you for guiding her, and hopefully with that much flowers, it will guide him back to her, and leave all his worries (unlike other ghosts, he settled his sole resentment but his still have unfinished business even after settling his resentment which is yuna because they fell inlove while being ghosts)

Hotel Blue Moon i'll just keep this short. This drama is 1000000% amazing!!!! Thank you Hong Sisters, PD nim, all the actors and actresses and all the crews and staffs,

Fuji I enjoyed the show but was disappointed with the ending, which was left to the viewer's imagination. The vibe I got from it was a sad one however.

Bloomsbury I wonder how many dress that iu wear..

tergaul The best romance series 2019 - ending so sad and make me crying so hard

Camelia Hong sister said that it was a love story where happy romance didn't exist. Hm, just like story of my life. This drama was good and the ending was sad, but life not so good and the ending seems to be sucks too, meh.

Rini The best series 2019 ever ! I hope this will win this year Hotel Luna

Chocolate The ending was so sad, I'm crying

BMR39 Hotel del Luna is an excellent drama in the same ghost story genre as 'Goblin: The Lonely and great God'. In fact, the two screenwriters Hong, who are sisters, have been clearly influenced by Goblin in creating a magical story that constantly swings between the present and the afterlife going as far back as 1300 years for some characters.

   But the sisters Hong  have chosen a different path, and they have written an original, complex story where the main character Jang Man-Wol is a strong, bitter, suspicious and unhappy young woman who is CEO of the Hotel del Luna, a unique hotel for ghosts on their way their afterlife in heaven.  Jang Man-wol has been cursed to be the CEO of the hotel as punishment for a  crime she committed 1300 years ago and does not remember. Man-Wol is doomed for eternity to run this strange and magical hotel for ghosts; unless she remembers her crime and atones for it. The judge to decide will be goddess Mago who appears in many different guises to give her many rulings based on the deeds of everyone.
         The story begins when Jang Man-Wol is looking for a new hotel manager to replace the current manager No Joon-Seok who is ready to leave for his well-deserve afterlife. One new manager under consideration is young and very talented hotel manager Koo  Chan-Sung who is in transition to a new job in a major hotel. This is the beginning of multiple stories of the fight between evil and goodness, forgiveness, love, redemption and eventual peace.
        The actors are all excellent. The fantastic color photography draws  you into every dreamy magical moment. The staging full of stunning surprises is of the highest quality and creativity. The directing and film editing is excellent too.
        Among these qualities, most unexpected and impressive to me is the enormous work of the costume designer team worthy of the best dress designers of the world, especially for Man Wol. It is truly exceptional and awesome.  
        IU appears as Man-Wol in every scene with a different and extremely stylish dress with matching  hairdo, earrings and nail colors than enhances and expresses Man-Wol current mood. I have never seen costume design of such a high quality, beauty and variety in any drama series before.  
       Because IU (이지은) who plays Man-Wol has now matured into a deep, intelligent, versatile and attractive young actress, it is difficult to say whether it is her acting that enhances the beauty of her dresses or if it is the quality of the dresses that allows her to totally express herself in her current mood. What a creative experience  it is in every episode!    
    Yeo Jin-Goo who has an outstanding record as actor and has won many prizes since his childhood is an excellent match for IU in the slowly evolving, stop-and-go love story between strong but troubled Man-Wol in search of her better self and steadfast, generous Koo Chang-Sung, which is the lead story at the heart of the drama.
     Hotel del Luna is definitely one of the best and most enchanting K-drama in the genre of magical ghost stories. And definitely the best this year. It will not leave you unaffected.

Nyx Hotel Blue Moon looks fun as f*** ... sign me up, I want to go.

Mick Psyphon Hotel Del Luna is like watching a beautiful dream unfold before your eyes. There's nothing gratuitous, or overdone. It all fits nicely together, like a well designed puzzle.


Everything about it is like a modern day fairytale; and it truly deserves to be mentioned among some of the other great K-Dramas of the genre, such as:

The Scholar Who Walks at Night Goblin: The Lonely and Great God A Korean Odyssey

Originally, I wondered about the casting; and to be honest, it prevented me from even considering to watch this series. Once I watched episode #1, all my fears had been assuaged. Not that I felt that any of the cast couldn't act well. It was just that I didn't think that they would be a good match. How wrong I was! The casting was just perfect. They worked well together; and they really brought their characters forward.

Everything about this series exudes a dreamlike quality, from the musical scores to the wardrobe to the scenes/sets. Everything is simply beautiful!

I highly recommend this series; and I would even suggest that a second series could do just as well... if they have enough new characters involved.

Shell This is a good drama. I'm not IU fans but her character suits her well. She nailed it. The story is also a good one. I hope to see KSH in season 2.

Soso I don't know if it's just me but the ending didn't make any sense. I am kinda disappointed with Hotel del Luna. I can't wait for Arthdal Chronicles.

ayoniseyo I really do expect a full happy ending... Or maybe i just expected too high..

I don't have questions with the whole plot, the actors (although PO's expressions was a bit not for drama - sad scene) and the roller coster emotions they want viewers felt.. I'm just a bit disappointed on how ManChan's ending turned out.. My interests of Chungmyung's and Yuna-Hyunjong couple's storyline still left in my expectation.. ㅠ.ㅠ

Jun R u kidding me r u trying to sell me the actors not the story......Mr. director some of us are smarter than that dont play yourself......worst kdrama ever

Sayuru This is my first time submitting a comment here so trust me, recently as all new KDramas were so bad and I actually lost my interest on many new KDramas but this drama got me back to the old KDrama addiction I had. Although this is a fantasy, you can really feel the story. You can feel the emotions. That heart breaking feeling on last few episodes are completely too hard to explain by words. Definitely worth watching it!

ARC Am I the only one smiling while they're taking a family photo? They look adorable..❤️

Jyani Let's hope and pray that the writers will create season 2 or Hotel Blue Moon for real. Omg I'll scream if Kim soohyun will also take the role. And it will be Hotel Universe series like MCU or DC's movies.... Please make it true, please please please....

Well, it's not too much for a wish, isn't t?

Zee Please we want Season 2!!!!!!!!! Pleaseeeeeee!!!!!!!?

ally OMG! For those wondering and cant decide to either watch it or not!!! Do it!! Freakin do it! This drama has been the best drama of 2019 for me... I've cried and laughed and screamed and sobbed and everything... No use explaining what the drama is about but yes, to anyone who needed this. You should give it a try. Both Man Weol and Chang Sung was beautifully portrayed by the lovely actors.

Zal Wahhhhhhhhh Amazing thousand Star....i really like this drama...the acting was super. the ending make me cry a lot...but i love it...im gonna miss this. SEASON 2 please

jaemi Gonna miss Hotel Del Luna so much T-T. All the cast, story writers, and everything, also IUs gorgeous outfits, Jin Goo, the lessons in life especially forgiveness, and the quote letting go is better than to hold on. AND I'm rooting for season two which the new owner will be Kim soo hyun OMG

Gift William Wow wow wow this drama is amazing. I like everything and the ending the more. Does it mean we are expecting part2 with Kim Soo-Hyun as the new hotel owner. Oh !!! This is exciting!!

Kim Soo Hyun's fan from the other star Yeo Jin Goo's acting was truly amazing, and so was IU, Lee Do Hyun and the supporting characters who made me laugh out loud and burst into tears like crazy lol. So.. thx a lot for the film directors, crew, writers & the cast for presenting this amazing drama. And the appearance of Kim Soo Hyun oppa, make me want to say one word for this drama: Perfect !!!!!!!!!!

Turtlegirl Have a box of tissues ready. I absolutely loved this series. But I legit cried my eyes out basically nonstop the last 2.5 episodes. Will we get a season 2?

mrlchin Hotel del Luna. 100/10 the best Kdrama I've watched next to Goblin. Also 100/10 has one of the greatest set of OSTs next to Goblin, DOTS and It's Okay That's Love. Lastly, 100/10 has the most beautiful and perfect ending ever. ;-;

Waiting for the next episode every week will definitely be missed. ;-; Brb, crying like I've finished reading a really good book. Huhuhu.

Aquarius Hoping for the next season?

Nicole I love that you put most of the photos of the special appearance??? really loved this drama as it touches on life and death, seriously love dramas that teach us something. But I hope that there will not be a sequel until like 30-40 years later, then will the story continue. I don't want another bad sequel pls!!! sometimes it is best left with the first one, then will our expectations and/or imaginations for the future of the drama not disappoint viewers. Good job to every cast and crew, especially editors who brings the vision of the director's sequence to life.

ps. nice ending?

Hyu when will the blue moon hotel be aired too? ha ha ha...

User1 Overall I must say I feel disappointed with how the series turned out, maybe because my expectations were too high or that I was hoping to love it much as I do Master's Sun but unfortunately that's not the case. I think one of the reasons is that I didn't feel a connection between the two main leads even though I like each actor individualy. I did like Yoo-Na and Hyun-Joong couple and I was also interested in the storyline of Choeng-Myung. Although, I didn't really like how his ending with Man-Wol was written. I thought he was truly the one who loved her the most. The actor was able to portray it well, so kudos to him.

MJ great drama. highly recommended. I didn’t really expected the ending though.. My heart is racing upon seeing KSH— damn! he is gorgeous.

klover And that acting!

klover That ending! Prepare yourself!

LoneGunMan Good show but having seen Goblin, you can see that they borrowed a lot from that plot. Still a good show for IU and Yeo Jin-Goo. Thanks!

Bleevv Great drama!!!!! Every character shines in this drama. Their individual stories are all so powerful, sad and moving at the same time. Loved this!

james want session 2 like drama

Mandy Excellent excellent excellent drama, cast, crew, everything, the details were perfect, beautiful stories, lovable characters, best drama of the year, epic ending ... Kim Soo Hyun, gosh could you imagine? This is definitely a re-usable setting, no need to re-invent the wheel when the one you have is already golden.

me_nophelicious Another kind of Goblin: 1000 years old, cruel ex-soldier, triplet grannies or more or whatever, reincarnation and famous cameos. Nothing's wrong with the actresses and actors, IU and Jin Goo are great. It just almost the same points as Goblin. Too much similarities.

Kim Omg not sure how I feel with that last episode... just a slew of emotions packed on me all at once, SPOILER AHEAD It’s truly sad that she had to go, but understandable that it had to happen since she’s been here for 1300 years due to her punishment... also really hope there’s a season 2, having the same cast, adding new characters as well of course. Also, can someone give me an answer to the flower that’s in Ku Chan Seong’s heart? What’s gonna happen with it?

Leejiro you guys don't understand that a season 2 would be another repetitive formula like the 1st season. The storyline could flat out be very similar to the first season. You don't want that as a sequel to a drama you are already fond of.

PubJackd Kim Soo-hyun!!! Perfect for season 2!

Annie Oh my God!! Kim Soo-hyun is the best choice for season 2!!! He is very hot! Please hurry up the season 2 please!!!!

Cutie Could easily be the best drama of 2019. From plot to the cast, its excellent! If there was a season 2, I would definitely watch ! SPOILER AHEAD, I just finished the drama and I had a feeling it was gonna be a bittersweet ending. There are no other choices other than man weol going to the adter life. It only makes sense for her to leave after her punishment. Still avery enjoyable drama, the main leads rock

ALICE now we need a new season TT

Jang Man Weol I'm so excited for season 2! Kim Soo Hyun is the next owner of the hotel. "Hotel Blue Moon!"

irfan so will be a new season and different cast?hahahah

Mala Aaahh this drama, i have no word to say. I just cant let this drama over. Chan Seong and Man Wol couple just too cute and too perfect JinGoo and IU one of the best couple

hotelbluemoon The grand return of Kim SooHyun and the good ending...the silhouette got be butterflies... thought it was KSH or HaeIn and it was KSH...Ahhhhh... missed you.

Mon This drama was beautiful from the first till the last episode.

dalisay dy i think kim soo hyun will be the next owner of the hotel, just guessing anyway..

Joan Paula Yey! Today's the finale!!! I will miss you, Jang Man-Wol [IU]!!!

Jan Michael Belena This Kdrama thought us forgiveness... Congrats to all the people behund this. The series is once in a lifetime! I will definitely miss Ku Chang Seo and Jan Man Weol and of course the hotel itself with the deites (Ma Go). I really loved it and even cried with it...

Waiz It was great I really wish that I am koo chang seong its like they really in love with each other nice drama 100% rate for this drama love it so muchhhh

Mandegar I love hotel deluna so much and I can't wait to see what will happen at the end.end . in my opinion this drama is different from other k drama. I think it has good story and I want say thank you to writer,director and also actors?????? I can't wait for e15

Kent There's some rumor that kim soo hyun will make a cameo appearance in the final episode

Uifan Get so addicted to the show n cried almost every episode. Touching n sad. 1300 years no ending love. Chan sung may be the wine bottle or sword soul of man-wol past lives to know so much of her. Hope the story continues.

Lisa Fall in love with this drama? I hope man-wol and chan-sung have a happy ending..arghhh..can't wait for the ending❤❤❤❤keep it up??

Tera I'm glad instead of chan sung being chung myung or chan sung being yeo woo, chan sung is chan sung. A totally different entity.. He deserve man weol and suit her well. I'm just wondering if he has anything to do with man weol in his past lives amd why he specifically have been chosen by ma go to carry out duty to release man weol pent up regret

FanDelLuna We finally got a peak @ Room 404, a wish we saw more of the checkout for the human guests

So While a lot of ppl say that MW and CM should be together, im not agree. Sacrifice? Yes he had sacrifice but he was selfish back then. He killed himself with MW sword bcs he feel ashamed of himself. What type of sacrifice? Being with MW as a firefly? But he done nothing. Even tho he kept his promise, but being a firefly really sacrifice nothing. Look at CS, even he is new in MW life, but he is really mature. Look at how he handle MW feelings, the ghosts who need help, it was CS that have been helping them. He also always been there for MW. I would just hope there is happy ending for CS and MW. CS deserves all the happiness only with MW.

GHEEE IU, Specialist sad ending

lavender sending loves from malaysia! i love this drama so muchhh! <3 hope the ending wont disappoints me ehe :)

Andrew Actually, this my first Kdrama I watched (I like IU as a singer though). I do really like this drama up until now probably one of the best I ever watch. IU's act is really on point and the male lead are all out for his act too (Especially during crying scene on eps 14). And do really like how they put comedy in this drama (especially if Man Weol got jealous) . In my own opinion, I think Man Weol should be with Chang Seong. How Chang Seong change Man Weol's personality. See how Man Weol smile since episode 10++. I hope they have a proper happy ending.

Somehow, I hope they have season 2 or the movie.

dikku i just hope happy ending for all the three...Ku chan seong, Man wol and cheong myung ..... I don't want the ending which will send cheong myung in the afterlife sadly, he always stayed with man wol all these years.....i just wanted a happy ending for him too. And the actress who played role of spirit in kim yoona , her name is park ga ram ...okay james ?

Mina Chan sung and Man weol deserve a happy ending. Because chan myung is selfish. While he was thinking he was doing this biggg sacrifice for Man weol he was actually pushing her over the edge. Their relationship was so unhealthy. Chan sung on the other hand is the person who makes man weol feel happy and at ease and calm even. Their love is more mature and strong.

James Any idea what's the name of the actress of the spirit on Kim Yoona? She isn't listed here though...

Carols I hope chun myung and man wol stay together long last. He is already scrificed his life, ego and love for her. :(

Frost Choeng-Myung and Man-wol have better chemistry. And I think his live is deeper than Chan-sung because he sacrificed so much more for his lady. I know the two leads will end up to be together in the end but a big part of me hopes that Choeng-Myung will also have a happy ending. Don’t just send him away like that. :(

Billa Im gonna say IU's acting is point, and Yeo Jin-Goo is indeed a great actor (this is my first drama of his). The love story is unusual, especially with Man Wol's toughness and Chan Sung being too cute and pure, there's no way for them to fall in love, too weird... Yet they make it. The deity cause makes it all possible. Salut to writer-nim for this interesting story line. I really love the relationship between Man Wol, Chung Myung and Yeon Woo. Beautiful yet heartbreaking. Man Wol should be so thankful that she receives much much love. For whatever ending will be, happy or sad, the movie will end beautifully. Cant wait for it.

Lara I want also Chung myung and man weol to end up together cause their chemistry arghh??I hope that they will be together in a drama?

Moon Yeo Jin Goo is really such an amazing actor.. I’m so glad that more people are appreciating his acting now. I would like to thank the casting directors for also allowing us to discover gems like Lee Tae Sun, Lee Do Hyun, and Cho Hyun Chul. The only character that I couldn’t really find myself to like is Ji Hyun Joong, most likely because of his weird facial expressions that usually would look out of place.

I haven’t been able to find a drama to watch in awhile until now because none have really kept me interested or invested.

I know that many people were rooting for Man Weol and Chung Myung but there’s just something that kept me rooting for ManChan from the beginning until the end. MW and CM cannot go back to how they were before, since all of the incidents in the past have changed MW a lot. I’m highkey hoping for a happy ending for Man Chan but it probably won’t happen.

popcorn and coke

  • SPOILER ALERT*

AH! So it's gonna be a happy ending after all because the last flowers in the Moon Tree is inside Chan Seong's heart. As long as his heart is beating, Man Weol will stay alive. Uwu, in the end they will live and die together. Ahhhh. I'm so excited for the last two episodes.

Faris Good drama, so touching, but i don't hope its gonna be happy ending coz Man Wol will go in peace.

Moon I just realized that it was the Hong Sister who made this story. I really hope they could give us a good ending. The truth is I loved Hwayugi. I loved it so much that i always wait for each episode to be released. And that is exactly how i feel with hotel del luna. I love the story, IU, Yoo Jin Goo and the songs! Please do give us a good ending this time!

Bl If they are giving us sad ending, i need season two i dont care!!

jestine29 with this drama I have learned to appreciate both IU and Jin Goo.they are amazingly brilliant for their roles. I love and will see this drama to the end.

dhenzon Im addicted to this kdrama. Ilove it....

Gigi The chemistry between these 2 is like zero . I love them more as friends to be honest. I don't know, maybe because while the lead guy looks older he still reads young. IU on the other hand looks young but she has this maturity which he just can't seem to level with.

On a different note I am loving yoo-na's story line from being a high schooler, intern, mini detective and a ghost inhabiting the shell of the girl who cause her so much pain. I love that . The character has depth and so much to explore. She should have a mini spin-off

Dara Best kdrama 2019

Lara Waaaahhhh they are so perfect for each other, I'm waiting for the 13,14,15 and 16 episodeeee ??? I really love there acting and in my opinion I think chan seong is do hyun, the past of man weol, they are really good for each other

R At first i dont bother to watch this but all ppl around me keep saying this drama is good, so i just tried to watch the 1st ep to see how good was it.. then when i watch inly for half minutes, already made me want to know what is going to happen next. And also it is funny too when chan sung afraid of the ghosts at the first place. Hahahhaa this drama is really the best!!!

Bumkey OMG really love this drama.. everything is perfect.. all ost so beautiful.. hope for happy ending please.. jeaballl.. let man woel and chan seong together ❤ i can't move on lol i keep rewatching again and again... iu and jin goo so perfect..

ziaerin Omg i just realised taesun and dohyun acted in prison playbook as the younger version of the main characters (baseball friends) and here they are together again

Khairul Affandy I hope there's a happy ending. And hopefully ManWol didn't get reunited with that firefly guy. He's an a*****e for killing YeonWoo. Maybe he could become a "sacrifice" when SeolJiWon attack ManWol/ChanSeong xD ... The theory of ChanSeong owning/inheriting the hotel sounds amazing too. They could use it to extend the plot into second season where perhaps ManWol reincarnated into someone else and their role swap hahahaha.

iamnotastronaut I really think Chan Sung will be the new owner of Hotel del Luna, the 4th ma go revealed that he will receive a big punishment for making the flowers of the Man Wol tree bloom. It's very sad, there could be 20 episodes

Koo Chan-Sun so handsome [Spoiler] Love this drama ! IU and Jin-Goo fit so good together wish it will have a good ending ...Or ill cry for the rest of the year, P.O and Mi-Na are so cuute together too !!!!

Chan song I hope there's a happy ending. Don't leave chan sung behind. It's too sad because i can relate. When chan song said "it's going to be a little hard.... if i can't see it but i want to." Really hit me

HotelDelLunaFan Nooo I'm thinking that Koo Chan Sung will be the next owner of Hotel Del Luna after sending of Man Weol!!! All this time I have been thinking that Koo Chan Sung is the reincarnation of Cheong Myung, but after the Deity revealed that Cheong Myung is the firefly all this time. I came up with this theory that the Deity said Chan sung will receive the saddest punishment because he will be the next owner of Hotel del Luna after Man Weol.

HotelDelLunaFan Nooooo don't tell me that Koo chan sung will end up be the new owner of the hotel del luna!!! If the fireflies were Cheong Myung all along then Koo chan sung was not the reincarnated Cheong Myung!!! I thought he was the reincarnated all this time. So i'm guessing that the punishment that the Deity was talking about is Koo Chan Sung being the new owner of Hotel Del luna

NoYou How to define a bitter sweet style?

I'm hoping for a happy ending. But love between a ghost and a human being in movies have never ended well in a Disney ending.

YesMe The Hong-Sister screenplay often ends in bitter sweet style. Korean Odyssey for instance. I hope for HDL to be different. I would love if ChanSeong was part of ManWeol's past-life instead of a bridge for her present's life. It's hard to pick either two as your lover >.<

Nyx

  • Spoiler if you haven't watched Episode 12. Man Weol may return to Cheong Myung, he is her first love and once she realises why he did what he did and how he has been with her for the last 1000 years. She will save Chang Seong's life from the vengeful ghost with her own. Chang Seong will see her off and he will pay for making the tree blossom by being here alone without her. But its hard to tell until we find out what the promise is that Cheong Myung made to Man Weol. Super sad that there is only 4 episodes left yet super happy it is nearly at an end.

Germany Cheong Myung this is so sad I‘m crying ? this will be 100% a sad ending. Please choose him! Their chemistry is no joke

Iuna I fell in love with fireflies :"

Kaneki Will man weol choose cheong myung over ku chang seong? I can't wait to watch other episodes.

Lunata Episode 12 is really, extremely, painfully, too sad for Chan Seong. I don't think I can rewatch HDL from the 1st episode after this. I mean look at his character development. He went from a boy who used to try so hard to runaway from Man Wol, to a boy who would stare longingly at Man Wol whatever she's doing even when she's being grumpy. Episode 12 to me emphasize his sincere love for her the most. That scene when Chan Seong said "the flower is blossoming" but Man Wol said "it's time must be up soon" at the same time. His facial expression explains it all. God, that moment was too painful. Yeo Jin Goo really is a great actor. He brought the pain that Ku Chan Seong felt to me perfectly. I keep hoping for a happy ending since I watched 1st episode, but I'm getting hopeless lol. Every episodes are always filled with sad scenes like that.

firefly When the drama ends, what I'm only hoping is a happy ending. That's it nothing else.

Tingtong I reallyyyy love this drama! The story and everything just right and amazing... lovely cast with stunning acting,amazing sytlist both from manwol and chansung, the cg, justt everything!!! I'm really curious abot the ending, it feels like i really want a happy ending but at the same time i think it will more memorable if the ending is kinda sad? But lets just trust the writers the've done a very good job this whole time anyway.. And I think the one who told chunmyoung in ep 12 is yeonwoo isn't it? Can't waitt for saturday to comeeeee

Zal Love it....i can't wait for th next....please be nice to me?

Zal Wahhhhhhhhh...i don't know how to say this..but for sure i like it...IU so cute.......YeoJinGoo so handsome and charming..i hope for happy ending please don't break my heart...? even though i feel the sad ending behind all this time...

Save choeng myung At episode 12, someone that told choeng myung to be a traitor is SANCHEZ omg ....

Please save my choeng myung, he never leave man weol alone, he accompanied man weol for hundred years without her knowing anything !! ??

anathasia Someone told Cheong Myung that he should lived as a traitor to save Man Wol and it was a guy voice I think it was Chan Sung past life. Mago said that Chan Sung should pay his sin and Man Wol will be sad and scared. And I think Chan Sung is one of the royal family and he have a feelings for Man Wol back then or he just don't want to hurt Princess Sohwa (Mira). Just my thoughts because Chan Sung bring all the people connected to between them.

Jae They're initially worried because the drama aired between Arthdal. What if it was being compared and just want the drama to finish so they could watch Arthdal. But this drama is proving to be better than Arthdal. At first, I originally roll my eyes over the plot, hotel for ghost? I don't know how delirious the story would be. But I enjoy every episodes. Sometimes it's funny, sad, meaningful, and they are really giving their all into this. The beautiful shots from the director, the story by the writer, Hong sisters are the writer who wrote Master's Sun, right? The acting by all the casts. And even IU and her stylist are going all out to solidify Man Wol characters by showcasting so many beautiful outfits, different hairstyle, makeup, accessories, shoes, bags, and even nail art. But what carry it all, is IU's immersion into Man Wol's character. She even made the social media account for Man Wol. Too funny. The chemistry between all the casts are amazing. If not, they would think it's annoying to have to pose for the instagram but they do it willingly and act funny as well.

jaemi Can't wait for the next episode! hwaiting Jang Man Wol! go and save your man!

jaemi "The flowers are so beautiful why does it have to wilt?" Now I Finally Get It. Thanks to dreaded Mago I finally get the message plus the answer

Anna I love everything about this drama, the actors and actresses ,doing really well. Love the chemistry between the leading actor,actress.soooo awesome..loving much .all of them are versatile...fighting..hoping for a happy ending tho...

yhg Hello Bob, I also share that feeling that Chan Sung and Ji Won may be half brothers.

Lily This Drama is my best drama so far, with ahjussi hope Jieun will do more dramas.... after the release of her a;bum

momo damn some of ya are rude...*cough*Guilty *cough*pleasure*cough* shots fired lol and this is not overrated at all your logic makes no sense because you know what Scarlet Heart had crazy cast yet it was not as popular and rating was just wasnt that high (it was a good drama...) soo i dunno what you're talking about her fanbase this and that. damn some ya yeo jingoo fans are tough to please...i love the whole cast everyone has done so good in this drama. from acting, directing, soundtrack, styling, writing, etc...it's not too cringy, its sad, its funny, its intense, its overall a pretty well put together piece. you can really feel emotions manwol has and feel her pain in the begining even with just the little bits and pieces we get from the series. but what do i know im just an avid kdrama watcher whole watches a lot and dont discriminate.

Guilty pleasure Never like IU before. I started watch this caused of Yeo Jin Goo. But IU here is not so bad. Her annoying face fit up with her role here. And I really like her clothes, style, and fashion here! Two thumbs up for cinematography, director, and script writer too. I can laugh and gigling so much with the conversation and nice jokes in this horror drama :)

Recomended !!

Bob I have a strange feeling that Chan Sung and Ji Won shares a maternal link...half brothers?

Keiteu Amazing drama plot twist. Amazing actors and actresses!!!! IU and the team u guys nailed it!!!! Keep it up. I love this drama.

Grandma shark did the guy iu used to love in her past life really betray her !!!!!

Ayaka The only thing that i really adore from this drama is chemistry between Manwol and Yeonwoo... Idk what their relationship, family? Partner in crime? Best friend? Its not even clear... But idk why, everytime Manwol look at him, i see sincere feeling... Sorry, but Chansung is too noisy and Chunmyung didnt spark any love from his eyes :( Just admit it, the scene where u guys crying is Manwol and Yeonwoo scene right? Lol

Myfavoritefoodispijja This drama is overrated? No, it just get what it deserves. I'm really amazed in everything about it, whether it'll have a sad ending or not. It made me look at my life differently, it even cured my phobia towards 'ghosts'.

Bch This drama is overrated. Because IU has such big fanbase, the ratings of this drama are high. But the plot is really boring. I tried to watch it over and over again but still nothing in it makes me want to keep going. I always loved Yeo Jin Goo's acting. He deserves a better drama than this poop piece

Mina Love yeo jin goo in this. IU too. A great drama. Enjoing so far ❤️

Danny Ratings is going up which means only one thing! Great drama with great chemistry! This will be IU beat drama yet!

Can’t find any fault with this drama except hoping it will be voted drama of the year with IU as best actress!

JuWon A great drama! IU and Yeo Jin Goo performed very well. The script was good and ost are great, too.

JJ I love this drama, really good!!! I never bored to watch this drama because I love IU. Please make happy ending for them, I don't want they couldn't be together in the end. must be watch this drama! recommended! don't regret if you don't watch it^^


hwaiting IU ssi!

Sam @meisian xxxHolic was my first thought when I saw ep1

meisian So sad! Only 3 weeks left TT_TT

I initially shipped Man Woel with Chung Myung (he's so cute!) but Yeon-Woo sotle my heart Ep 10 TT_TT

Ku Chang Song you are cool, but Yeon-Woo-ah~! TT_TT

PS Who remembers xxxHolic? Any similarities?

Joselyn ungay Ilove this drama,,, iu is a good actress & beautiful.... Evryone did a good job.... I'm afraid of ghost.. I Just cover my eyes when the ghost appear???

Nyx Sanchez needs his own show when this finishes ... it could be about his Yacht club, a dating agency and a leading lady who is a single mum. That would be epic.

kitchy lee The Hong sisters are back in the game again... This is one of the best dramas I've watched for a while... I really like their dramas.... I wish for more projects for them in the future...

IU by the way looks so stunning...

Joy I m in love to this drama, waiting for a week feels like a year for me lol

John ep 10 seems to be having multiple ghost stories

Tiffany A super reliable hotel assistent manager from big hotel, End up working at small hotel with young woman as the manager.

Hhhmm..... I've seen this drama, but where......?

butterpuffs I didn't know that Lee Tae-sun and Lee Do-hyun were in Prison Playbook together and now they're in Hotel Del Luna together again

Rey I cried on ep. 10 ??

Dramafan IU and Yeo Jin-Goo are great. Love the drama! I do also want to say that Lee Tae-Sun (Yeon Woo) really made an impression on me..he's soooo fine looking, especially in episode 9 when he looked up at that traitor Lee Do-Hyun (Ko Choeng-Myung)..awesome expression..

caca can’t wait to see sulli!

lalala i see IU, i watch <3<3<3

inufan I shouldn't have watch this drama ongoing because it makes me always wonder what is gonna happen on the next eps. Especially... In eps 9 and (Yeon Woo). But that's it. You guys should watch the eps 9 to know what I'm talking about hahaha

Justme I think this drama is so cool ? The story is great, the main role actor/actress are the best ? and for the cameo for each episode is also made me surprise because all of them are my favorite ? Fighting hotel del luna ???

IUjang~~ Omaigod it just me or what but i really recommended this drama lol. this drama in my top 10 love lah!!! i cant wait to see the ending. i hope man-wol and chan-sung have happy ending..

angel The episodes are great hope i can watch episode 9 now huhu can't wait. This movie is like Goblin and Hwayugi combination ?

Teja For me personally I really like the atmosphere of this kdrama. And this is my first k drama btw.i would not come across this beautiful k drama without my elder sisters which are big fans of iu. In fact I was watching goblin at the time so I first thought that it's almost the same as goblin but then I saw the creativity and the uniqueness of hotel del luna

faaa Rather than Goblin, the plot remains me of Jigoku Shoujo anime of Enma Ai. Enma Ai would give bad person to do revenge but this human will have penitence later. Jpn has this kind of plot way longer than Korea. But Hotel del luna still has its own style of story.

Susan To me, the story is almost the same with Hwayugi. They catch ghosts in each episode. They have a lot of stars that appear as cameos, just like Hwayugi. And Jang Man Weol's outfits are 'wow'. She has different clothes in each scene.

Will be curious how this story ends

Fairytea First impression: emm ok it's kinda goblin's vibe. Lohh the plot just like beauty and the beast but twist horror version wkwkwk i love it, fresh genre?

Susan OMG Lee Joon Gi cameo. What is this, teasing us with sequel of Scarlet Heart? This would hurt ... a lot.

BluntRevel Again, loving the plot so far(I've caught up, now in ep. 8). Surprisingly I like how slow the character development, it kind of fits imo, I just hope the production team do not force and cramping the plot twists and character development in the last episode. But again, I still don't get why they still put YJG to be that over the top pure character, I just ended up seeing him as gagman cameo. IU though, now fits JMW character like gloves, I can't complain about anything anymore. Especially since the plot now got more serious and sad which imo are IU's specialty in acting.

LayTeen17 Who as gyeong ah ghost at ep.8?

ClamChowder When yeonwoo died... I cannotttt ㅠㅠ

Dewlin I think Koo Chan Sung Could reincarnation of Yeon woo~ Just my thoughts

Kai First of all, yes many said that it was the same with goblin but i feel different watching HDL. I love both Kdrama but it has different feels even thou with the same vibes. HDL has many stories in it, and i love how the stories of the ghost makes me cry. The story makes me compare it to reality. And the characters especially Manweol makes me relate to her coz sometimes i resent others because of their bad deeds and sometimes we doubt Our Deity(God) because we think His unfair but at the end He will never makes a mistake that will harm or will not benefit us. Overall i love the flow of the story i felt different emotions and i learned many lesson in life. And i literally can't accept the fact that CM did not really love her? I was fall really hard with their loveteam!I thought and i feel that he really love her?but i don't why he did that? I thought he is good. ?I can't move on. But i love Chunseeong too. And i don't know if CM is reincarnated with him.

aamy_11 This drama is just too awesome for me! You guys should definitely see this. I never watch dramas Yeo Jin Goo's in, but his acting and chemistry with IU especially in this drama is just too good ^-^

Kanal Many people say that this drama has the same plot for Goblin. I partly agree that but goblin was many ways better than (HdL). Ep 8 was not also very cruel and it got more of romantic vibes.

Goblin's god and its story is also more cruel than (HdL) & Ma Go!

Eggburger Yeah, it almost has the same plot to goblin, but here the goblin is female and has a job thats similar to the grim reapers lol

sera I'm not rooting for the main pair. I liked Man Wol and Chung Myung interactions better. But I love that Man Wol is giving herself a chance to love and care for someone again.

doctorzais So this is reverse goblin?

Bindy Love this drama.I like to watch IU's drama

fymidam In opinion Lee Do Hyun should be the leading man, i'm not saying that I don't like Jin Goo but Lee Do Hyun is really an eye catching man. Since 13 but 17 i really like his presence. Too bad he didn't get the leading role. Give him more opportunity!

feli i started watching this drama yesterday and I fell in love with it. I have been watching IU ever since the beginning of Scarlet Heart Ryeo (my fav drama of all time) and she is personally one of the best actresses. The storyline is very interesting and stands out compared to other dramas. IU has made me cry everytime because every episode is really kinda sad. But the love story and connection between the two main leads is abit slow compared to other dramas (episode 8 so far) but that is completely fine, but I wanna see more chemistry between them !! Jin Goo's acting is also really good and I was impressed. I have a feeling that her time is going to come to the end and its going to be another sad ending like SHR which broke my heart TT IU unnie HWAITINGG

Luisa Why do I fall for these traps? I should've listened to the voice in my head telling me to wait and watch after they released all 16 episodes... But no, I had to see all 8 and now be sleepless after being shattered by yet another drama. Yes, I'm loving it, but episode 8 is just cruel. I never bought MW being evil, been loving her since her first sentence and now I could basically slap the little bitch that try to come for my baby. If she ever did anything wrong was giving the princess a clean death, I would go full torture mode for every person that I loved that she killed. Also, I hope she killed CM for what he did. I don't care if he was threatened, I don't care if he ever loved her or didn't. He is a piece of shit, what he did is death sentence.

elizabeth I fall in love with Lee Do Hyun! Small screen but I ship him with IU more then YJG. I hope I would appear to IU's current life.

Darkeyes The concept of this drama is like goblin...(female version)very interesting. I cant wait for the next episode.

Candy This Drama is Gold

Salsa Ep 8 is so sad, they make me can't wait for next episode

Jun This is what happens when you run out of ideas for a good script

hatsumi Feels like a Goblin series by Gong Yoo but a Female version. Agree?

Hr Its just me or ep 8 is really sad..

upi haha.. 김제혁 and 이준호's friendship has begun since ancient time.!

Xxxooo The drama is OKAY so far. I’m disappointed that both JMW and KCS characters are developing so slow. The drama is extremely slow too. Rarely do you get scenes where the main couple connect deeply. This is a very boring plot. I love the main leads but the writers could have done better with the story line. Please give this drama more life and excitement!

Nobi Oof yup was right. Seen episode 9 preview and Man Weol really took her gift back but Chan Seong went to the Ma Gos and asked for help. Lol, now Chan Seong will be the cold one while Man Weol gets ignored for letting him go,

Nobi

  • SPOILER*

Man Weol took his third eye thats why he cant see her anymore. And I'm pretty sure she hasnt left yet.

  • SPOILER END*

No preview for next ep. *sigh*

1004 Is anybody know BGM from ep 7 while Hyungjoong and Yuna in Hospital and meet grandma/grandpas ?? I really want to know bc the song is sound familiar

Anon @Kermoet no sis shes not Krystal and idk who she is but shes clearly not Krystal

Kermoet Anyone can tell me who d actress potraying d ghost from closet which now hunted citizen with her video like Sadako? Is she Krystal?

Nyx IU is a super talented actress. I had doubts on the first episode however she has embodied her character wholeheartedly. In fact the entire cast have delivered their roles flawlessly. I love all the scenes, the crew is super creative and each episode is a visual feast.The cameo's are an extra delight too. I could watch this forever and I know I will miss it when it finishes.

saranghae Love this movie!! ❤️❤️❤️

minsu I like the rookie here, he is so cute Lee Do-Hyun, has chemistry with IU. Also I like Yeo Gin Goo. I love this drama anyway...

WANTIUclothes This drama is very unique and mysterious. I like it. And IU's beauty and clothes. Oh, my her clothes are so amazing. That is so my style. Please, I need her whole wardrobe from Hotel del Luna

caca can’t wait for ep 10!!!! sulli as a cameo??❤️

Sera Chang Myung seems more charming, so I don't think he's related to Chan Sung or anything. Seems like two different people and two different relationships to Man Wol.

Rowi Just started watching this yesterday from episode one up to episode 6 today..while watching i had so much laughter when they quarrel also i makes my heartmelt when they're showing their feelings for each other..some episodes made me cry..i really loved this kdrama..still waiting for episode 7 to be aired..keep it up..love you:)

mqlee_ I love IU's dramas and I think this one'll be the best among the filmography.

Markbato Im still waiting for the next episode .... and im looking forward to it

Xiuuu Now, i found myself shipping this couple. They just make me crazy ???

Chai Rooting for Lee Joon Gi to be included in this drama!

kudoschi I like this, horror comedy romance drama...wish that there is another partner for IU that Yeo Jin-Goo would intimidate with the guy. Wish the the ex gf in decade time will appear on the scene again or another man new generation man will appear that could capture the heart of IU then Yeo Jin-Goo will get jealous. The story will be interesting when it comes to love and third parties. IU is great in acting here. Wish more drama to come, and the partners would be like Ji Chang Wook, Lee Min Hoo, Park Seo Joo, Park Hyung Sik, Nam Joo Hyuk,Lee Jong Suk, Bo Gum, Kim oo Hyun, Song SEung Hon, Jo Ing Sun, Joo Jin Mo, Cha Eun Woo, Seo Kang Joon, Kim Rae Woon, Sung Hoon, many more..If the actress is prominent and famous vice versa same with actor, the partner should be famous also.

athazastha ep 3 got high rating cause uri lee joon gi!! and ep 6 got high rating cause uri lee yi kyung ???

SmileySmile This drama is very good! sO good, its on the same level as my ultimate fave Descendants of The Sun. I love IU's bad b*tch vibe, she is sLAyIng. i love the originality of the plot and how it's portrayed. but seriously, just watch it for IU! u wont regret it. - smileysmile

Nara I am in LOVE with IU, she’s so perfect and she shows a different side of her with this character in the drama. I don’t understand why everyone is hating on her.. can’t you just watch the drama and keep your hatred to yourself,, gosh don’t ruin it for the rest of us.

Anyways my favourite parts are when they show her character’s past life,, Lee DoHyun’s character makes my heart skip a beat istg

Wave_DM Damn this drama is really good so far!

nadd Im finding this drama interesting, and i actually like it, looking forward for the next episodes ^_^

olip The first 3 ep make me excited but then realized there is lack of chemistry between IU and YJG. YJG acting is so awkward? Acting with his hand? Need to speed forward for his scene. There is a lot of staring contest too. But IU beauty can't be unseen. IU Jjang!! Gonna watch this untill the end for IU.

Asl Short and sweet IU can only sing she is one of the most unsuccessful actresses out their.. but because of her beauty they just let her to act.

laura well, one benefit of having wrong grammar in the title is that it is easy to google or to look for tags in tumblr and twitter, does not get mixed up with other possible hotels of the moon. hehe

Blala Please dont be sad ending. But dot make ending like goblin or my love from the star ︶︿︶

Chin IU is so perfect for her role!! It's like her music videos turned into a real drama. Thia is really good! I love it!

Ella I am loving the series. Eventhough it's not yet done, but i am excited for the upcoming episodes. I am impress with the cinematography, the actors are on point with their characters, the director and the story. Its not medicore just like what other peoole commenting about. Its a different story with different sides and I do appreciate this kind of plot. Well, unless your not a fan of this kind of genre, then you wont be able to appreciate it. To the actors, director, cameraman, and writers, producers, etc., thank you for bringing this kind of series.

Mariz Im loving it. The episodes are getting more exciting.

zn agreed there is no chemisrty

Justin i want to be excited for this drama, but it just so so to me. I'm blinded by IU beuty in here, so cannot comment much on her acting. However, I do find they lack chemistry. I kept waiting the chemistry to be build, and then they ended kissing. Awkwardly. Also, I hope they are focusing more on the ghost part rather than Man Wol past. They are focusing too much on IU character rather than the hotel itself. The amount of the screentime regarding the ghost client in the hotel is too little. I should not compared this to The Master's Sun, but since people keep saying this story inspired by the Master's Sun, it's far from the same vibe. Seems like they trying too much to make this drama epic that all the plotlines become a mess. they try too make IU stands too much, and they did it. IU did shines here, just too bright that other characther seems not important.

1004 What the hell with Park il do??

I think this drama is give me some vibes of other movie, like Beauty and the Beast, Goblin, etc. This pretty good and YJG is damn cool.

Ann Am I the only one that thinks this drama is quite overrated? Yes, the cinematography, the props, the scenes, and outfit everything is over the top, they even got 2 very good actors to lead this. But the storyline is mediocre at best and YJG is not his best her and IU doesn't fit the character. They both lack that chemistry although they both are great on their other projects so it's strange.

Kim IU is perfect for this role, her acting is really improved. IU and Jingoo dont have big age gap so its good for me. This drama make me anticipation for every episode but i think in the end jang man woel will become human again or she will be dead and then reincarnated as human, then will meet chansung again.

Kim Tae Hee I’ll still see him as Young Gu

leave a comment he is a human now, but (maybe) his lover not human. lmao Jingoo always take role for fantasy drama @Czes

iu stan Jang Manweol remind me of Enma Ai. They have same status, being servant of spirit because of their sin. Only their errand is different. I think this drama writer inspired by Jigoku Shoujo. Is she/he a fan omgg omgg. I'm a hardcore fan of Hell Girl hihi

Czes I'm so happy his a human now!! LOL

Kiara BluntRevel, wow, ithink both IU and Yeo Jin Goo are perfect for this role. They doing great. I dont think 3 actresses you mention can be as good as IU for this role. As for YJG, at first i hesitate but than he show how much he suit for the character.so, for me this feel right.

BluntRevel I've watch three episodes, so far, the plot is interesting even though it's definitely not original. The cinematography are pretty great, theal are great, costumes are great too. The acting though, a little disappointing. The supporting characters are pretty on-point, even Kang Mina was not that bad, when I kind of doubted her the most at first. P.O too, I mean his character is a pretty shallow one, kind of easy to nailed, but nonetheless, it's good that he hasn't ruin the flow. IU is also not that bad, but I personally think there are few other actresses who could do better than her like Han Ye Seul, Seo Ji Hye, and maybe Jun Ji Hyun. Her acting range is a little lacking especially those times when she has to show her bad temper or being savage(In my opinion, she looked rather awkward). But, I think the worst actor in this drama is Yeo Jin Goo, and it's weird since I know he's not a bad actor. I loved his character in Circle, and he nailed it there. But, here? He's actually so bad, I always hate actor or actress who do overacting compared to blank acting, and YJG overacting A LOT in this drama. Is his character supposed to be in a sitcom or something, his acting when he's scared is super bad too, I always cringe when he appeared.

Humblenie Am I the only one who think that this drama is based on belle? The beauty and the beast??? Like IU portraying the beast character while YJG is the beauty???

Anyone Some people may don't like the fact that they have already kissed in the ep.4, but I prefer it to be that way. I mean, I also thought that it was a bit rushed, but I'm tired seeing k-dramas where we can guess what will happen in certain episodes. Like mostly, the main leads kisses in ep.9 or 10, they will show a lot of cute and romantic moments in ep.12-13, they get into trouble in ep.14 or 15 (they get into arguments, fights, or something that makes them can't be together), and finish with usual happy ending where there are only 10 minutes left in the story.

Samala Hoora ,/ Yeo Jin Gu just got a very suitable match female lead and drama Thanks he is good in acting since his child-actor hood and now with IU is super fantasy

vincentlibutan the 4th episode has kissing scene which I think is very early for this drama. I hope that they would focus on the essence of the story rather than the romance between the leads. waiting for 5th episode.

Orange Hong sisters are back! Looking forward for a great story and rollercoaster of emotions! ??

Jenny Lee joon gi oppa...is here...i was to happy when i see uri oppa here...i miss him..plz come back with new drama oppa....iu and oppa..scarlet heart memory is back

Probono The show gives the vibe of dark beauty and the beast plot/harry potter effects and sounds/hotel transylvania/black. Its fresh but the storyline is somewhat familiar and predictive but hey, hands up to the writers. It was well thought of. The elegant costumes, lavish set design and the CARS!! Plus IUs lipstick ? Looking forward to an exciting new ep and wishing ljg would have longer appearance than just a cameo ??

nobody important I love, that Lee Joon Gi has a short cameo appearance! After I watched the first two episodes, I re-watched the knowing bros episode with iu and LJG, because I kinda missed them? yeah, something like that~ and it's been a while since I laughed that much such cuties!

Zero Mission After watching My Mister and The Producers which I thought was her best acting. Now she is acting in a fantasy drama and her acting skills once again have proof many critics that she is one of the most outstanding actress in Korea.

Totally love the storyline!

For a paid to air channel, the ratings are very high!

Jon @P sounds familiar right. The name Park Il Do is from one of the drama in OCN. I think the name is The Guest.

michael OMG..love the scenes IU got kicked by the 2nd candidate back to earth. xD

Nico Just watched the 3rd episode. Omggg!! Excellent acting by the casts so far. The storyline is just interesting. Love the characters. Really excited to watch the next episodes. Loveeee IU, so gorgeous!! Damn her clothes must cost shit tonn of moneyy

jen I really love the past scenes where Man Weol and Choeng-Myung together. They pretty much have lots of chemistry there..

Sanni I like the drama so far. The plot is interesting and it makes me wants to see what's next!! Can't wait for ep 4 tonight??

Mila I believe her long lost love is koo chang sun who is reincarnated bc he is dreaming of their past life together

P Park Il Do?

clay0550 This series somewhat is linked to the storyline of korean odyssey, also written by the hong sisters, it was hinted at the last episode of korean odyssey where devil king woo hee said he would build a hotel where son o-gong defeat the evil black dragon and that the place is where evil spirits resides. Haha, just my assumption. So far i am liking where the story goes with this series, fighting!

Blee Loved the first 2 episodes!! I can wait for the next episodes!!!

Gazelle Dmyl IU is soooooooo beautifullll ❤️

Holy Clan Look at the writer, same as korean odyssey. It will be fail like that. Just a good cinematography and costum but a mess writing.

Nonaenglish I got a move seeing IU with a sword. She's good in acting. Like like like

Jun 2 episodes and very disappointed............

Vhern1989 Wow im exited to see lee joon gi apperance in hotel del luna??

N3g Iu vibe not kiding so great

LoveNicnic I heard that Lee Joong-Gi will make a special appearance.. cant wait here! feels like the Scarlet Heart again!

Sakura The 1st episode tastes like "Beauty and the Beast" which is cute. The 2nd episode turned out like the "Goblin". I loved how it turned tables from fantasy to the truth of life - how to live life, dying and afterlife. Will definitely stick to the drama 'til the end. :)

nancy this drama is everything♥♥

Yeinice IU and her outfits!!!!!!!!! So thoughtful, and this drama is worth the watch, so interesting and new!

Cookie Kyung Im pretty sure Chan Sung is the guy whom IU was talking to in the past. And that dead tree was the tree he promised her to build her a house with (the tree came alive again when he came to the hotel, the purple flower and the purple petal tucked on his suit gave it away) but he died and so the tree found its way to the dead land also and instead of it becoming their house, it "housed" her pain and suffering, taking the sword that killed so many people out of her grasped until one day he comes back to release her from everything. Thats my observation for now.

Kel IU suits this character so well (reminds me a bit of Producer's Cindy but more intense lol) and I love seeing YJG in a more comedic role after CC (sorry AB was not my cup of tea). Love them both! The real winner is the cinematography though.. beautifully shot. Hope Hong Sis will put out a consistent story.

Eo Di Ga.? Where do people really go and what do they really become when they die.?

Hotel Del Luna and then to heaven.? Cross the Sanzu Bridge into another world = reincarnation.?

Are you sure.?

shubha_indo Hong sisters are back with nice drama with ghost,comedy along with life lessons, Loving this drama already........................

Yranaxia Just watched the first 2 episodes last night after a few days downloaded. I get why starter rating so strong. This could go up like goblin was once. Fresh story telling. And IU shows new side of her acting character. So like it.

Bae jingoo This is such a good drama. Only 2 episodes but IU and Jingoo really showed a great acting. You guys should watch this!

BusyBee outstanding acting from yeo jin goo and mr. jeong dong hwan. episode 2 and i'm already hooked (for someone who is scared of the slightest horror related films)... I personally think this is yeo jin goo's finest performance to date! gradually becoming his fan... :D

Haru its amazing so far. IU is doing great and I really like her outfits. The acting overall is good. I love the fantasy and horror elements added. So far my favourite drama of 2019.

Belle After first 2 episodes I'm dropping out. Didn't meet my expectations, felt like mix of Disney movies.

Mafer This drama its really amaizng ,the first episodes were outsading. Hotel del Luna is coming with such an impresive actors and storyline

Nux I love IU and I've been a huge fan of hers since Scarlet Heart but I'm not feeling her in this character. The story line is lit and has huge potential but it just kind of feels off a little to me.

ara i can't wait for the remaining episodes of hotel del luna, i'm so hooked because it's so good.

AIREAND it's like the combination of Scarlet Heart Ryeo, My Love from the Star wherein she don't age and like The Master's Sun with ghost as well as Goblin with Grim Reaper. waaaah i'm hooked and shooketh!

Nara I love Yeo jin goo he is good actor and handsome and IU looking beautiful i m happy and enjoy watched Hotel Del luna love this drama

Fado Revere I think we can take "del luna" to mean the same as "de la luna" and move on. Though I prefer the latter myself.

I dislike Yeo Jin-Goo generally, he squanders opportunities to shine as an actor. Opportunities best given to other hard-working actors.

IU's performance in "My Mister" was so good it's clear to me she should go for serious roles more often. This drama doesn't look like it will do much to elevate the Hong sisters' status anyway. I think they are washed-up writers.

I'm happy to be proven wrong.

laura episode 1 is such good set up. the hong sisters are really good. i hope this gets really good

Blunt Not sure if Yeo Jin-Goo was the right actor for this role. He's good at conveying a certain palette of emotions, like sadness (a kid who was separated from a close friend) or authority (a young prince). But in "Hotel Del Luna", he must portray a very different character. In the subway scene, where he meets IU, he should look anxious, confused, almost trembling in fear, and he looks none of that. An actor like Lee Seung-Gi, who has a comical side, would've nailed this role. But anyway, Yeo Jin-Goo is very young, so he will have time to improve.

Ru224 Wow. This drama is really good. The storyline is new and fresh with some horror in it. Can't wait for the 2nd and the rest episode!!

Aya Why complaint about the title? if you watch it you will know why its Hotel Del Luna since 1st episode, its not to promote Spanish language (sorry they didnt use it) :((

Tin Waauw..like this kind of story..

n lmao why is everyone so triggered over the title of the drama. go fight over something else idiots.

michael Its a tv series name..they can write hote de luna for god sake.

Not even sure you guys are living for what purpose when even a tv series name also want to comment and try to prove you are correct.

helmy fariz rosandi this is korean series not spain series... why you soo bothersome...

your country maybe write "south korea" not "Daehan Minguk"..

Naty As a spanish speaker,I can tell that yes, it should be "HOTEL DE LA LUNA", not "Hotel del luna". But, I'm guessing that, because when using hangul they write down the words using a similar phonetic (in this case: 호텔 델루나), and because hangul was devised to fit the korean language (Korean syllables are organized into blocks of letters that have a beginning consonant, a middle vowel, and an optional final consonant) not spanish or english, it is unable to convey many of the nuances that are important to the spanish language as effectively as the latin alphabet. So, my guessing is that they just wrote down the name as it is pronnounced in hangul, without even cheking for the right latin orthography when using the latin alphabet.

Ce Biotech It's insane the bad grammar in Spanish that they are using. It would be Hotel DE LA Luna, not Hotel "del" Luna. It's so bothersome.

popcorn and coke @lena, im not fluent in spanish, only took a few months lesson but the del or de la is just "de" and "el" put together. its easier to just say del so most people use them like an abreviation of we are with we're. and it can mean a lot of things in certain circumstances so del in Hotel del Luna can either mean Hotel "of the" Luna/Moon or Hotel "from the" Luna/Moon. I hope this helps even just a little. *awkward smile*

Lina K Yesss Disna! Sooo excited for P.O being on it! I'm so soft I can't wait to see his skills in the drama!

Lena I was wondering if there was any Spanish speaker here who could answer a question for me - does Hotel "del" Luna make sense? I've taken only 2 years of Spanish but I'm pretty sure you use el for masculine noun and la for feminine noun with a few exceptions and it should be "la" luna.. Did the makers do it on purpose/for a reason? Just confused if they would mess up an official name of a potentially big drama like this. *shrug*

Disna I can't wait! Hopefully it will be on netlfix. But why is no-one talking about P.O?? Any blockB fans here?;(

Ibtihal Ali Im a fan of mina from IOI days and im rlly looking forward to this. and even more excited for IOI reunion

Man-Wol Jang Gosh Can’t wait for this drama, Literally All Iu’s and Jin Goo’s dramas are Amazing!

-Love Philippines ??

Alice IU looks as beautiful as always. I was surprised with her great acting in Moon Lovers and My Mister. I'm waiting to see her in Hotel Del Luna. The synopsis seems interesting and mysterious. I'm not very fond of the male lead but unfortunately I can't replace him. Good luck IU.

Katie I’m so excited for this drama! I love Yeo Jin Goo and I love all his roles, his dramas and movies, I think he’s perfect for the role because he’s proven himself time after time how talented he is and what kind of characters he can play. He’s mature and young and that makes him such a great actor. If you’ve never seen him act I suggest watching some his dramas and movies. I love his dramas Orange Marmalade and Reunited World and I love his movie Hwayi: A Monster Boy. He deserves all the support and love from his fans. Fighting!

H.A Okay, i wasn't finnis watching my absolute boy friend but i will waiting for watch Hotel the luna. I think Jin Goo many have a drama with idol girl, like Orange Marmalade with Seolhyun AOA, Reunited World with Chaeyong DIA, My Absoulute Boyfrien with Minah Girls day, and now Hotel the Luna with IU. I hope this drama will amazing. Okay i want to say so sorry, because i am typo minah is from Girls day not Gfriend, i am wrong so i say sorry ^_^

H.A Okay, i wasn't finnis watching my absolute boy friend but i will waiting for watch Hotel the luna. I think Jin Goo many have a drama with idol girl, like Orange Marmalade with Seolhyun AOA, Reunited World with Chaeyong DIA, My Absoulute Boyfriend with Mina Girlfriend, and now Hotel the Luna with IU. I hope they have a good cemistry together.

Belle I have nothing against Jing Goo, but wanted to see more mature actor in that role.

Thifa Okay... So i can watch my gugubabies on the same month. Sat and Sun with my baby Mina. Mon and Tues with my baby Sejeong. Can't wait...

Kent I agree @ sera

Sera I wanted to see IU and Kim Soo Hyun together. Oh well.

YeonJoo76 Oh my god excited,will see IU & Jiyeon in July,Sat Sun with IU Mon Tues with Jiyeon :))

My Ahjussi I Miss Lee Ji-An & Park Dong Hoon

Moonlight My girl IU is back! Looking forward to this. Plot seems interesting, but I hope the Hong Sisters deliver this time since their recent 2 dramas were meh.

Andy Oh. My. God.

Supernatural IU? Legit best casting ever, cus she's always been more than human in the best ways possible.

I'll live and breath off of this drama for the next few months.

Kamsamnida.

Bearhug Oooh... very intriguing plot! Sooo looking forward to this! Yeah, i agree with Popcorn and Coke... i challenge you to watch My Absolute Boyfriend airing now.. It will definitely give you the feels about the realities of love and life.. it’s more than just your robot-human romcom.. really! And yes check out The Crowned Clown too.. awesome drama!!

iamcofi Yeo Jin Goo???! Ohmygoodness!! I don’t mind having him on my screen all year round!!!! ? the adorable king who turned into an adorable robot and now this ? and IU too.. i’m looking forward to their chemistry ?

Sheh IU match older actors better.

Bhr dot dot I love IU so much and I literally cant wait for this drama but I think it was better if they aired it in August... like Yeo Jin Goo is now a robot in “my absolute boyfriend” and as I saw in its rating table, it is going to end on 17th of July... this drama starts at 13th of July. It is kind if weird for me, though I havent watched “my abs boyfriend”. I don’t know what YJG fans would feel...

Kent @Bean : thanks for the info...tbh I'm really excited for this drama

Kent @Bean: thanks for the info...tbh honest I'm really excited to watch this drama

Bean @Kent : if what you mean is my absolute boyfriend, that drama is pre-production. filming finished at 2018.

Kent The will be released in july 13 then what will happen to yeo jin goo who's still doing another drama that hasn't been finished yet....will he leave that drama?

abenako my god .... i'm so excited ...it's like my heart will burst for excitement!!

mia Watching the teaser i thought the writer inspired the story from movie animation of "Hotel Transylvania" with romance as main not father-daughter. I hope it could as fun as that with many interesting character.

the teaser is finally upppp yas the teaser is up i've been waiting for thisss

Nabi I am really excited for this I have never watched a horror kdrama. I can feel this would be amazing

Tyura Yeon jin goo again . He even hasnot finished his drama yet. But it seems interesting drama

Shairli It better be good Hong sisters! hahahahah...

kdrama fan The cast ♡♡♡

bbong I loved Master Sun and Yeo Jingoo and IU! I hope the plot will be just as fresh and intriguing. Looking forward to it!

Kk The synopsis feels a bit similar to a Jdrama called 'Hotel on the Brink', but then I read that there's gonna ghosts here so maybe not hahahahaha

seidob damn i need something like this in my life

Pang Xiang Ying Yeo Jin Goo ???? Can't wait <3

tawnii Love IU!! Im so excited for any work she will be in.

popcorn and coke I'm laughing at this comments telling the hong sisters to do it right and threatening them that they wont watch unless its 'original' or better than the master's sun. Geez, what a twisted way to show your love for the writers. Leave them alone and watch it if you want. If not dont. Its that easy.

popcorn and coke While waiting for this drama better watch Yeo Jin Goo's ongoing drama in the mean time. Its called Absolute Boyfriend and he's so adorable as a humanoid character.

I'M BOTH FAN Please hong sisters, you better make this right. (2) cr.eu

amanda omg yesss yeo jingoo is my favourite actor!! dEfinitely recommend the crowned clown if you've haven't seen it!!! <3

Pari Yeah! Finally IU and jungkook oppa are working together.

MistyFanForever I hope this is good but can anything be better than the Hong Sisters' Master's Sun, which was a masterpiece? I will need to be convinced. I love both stars but the writing just has to be original and fun, not redundant to shows of the past.

OliverYu IU ft YJG....wow.... interesting combo + ghosts!!! amazin g!!! gonna watch it. as per the writers is hong sister.... this will be 100% fun watch!!! so far i love all the drama hong sister writed.... hwaitting all

eu Please hong sisters, you better make this right.

yoojung x jingoo This is out of topic but can we have another drama where yoojung and jingoo as main characters, i'd definitely watch it

Nara ohh wait and see love Jingoo and IU

Yesss Omg the writers who wrote a Korean odessey,masters sun and others. and my two favorite actors IU and Jin goo, damn isn’t this a miracle! I seriously can’t wait.

Hanbin Oh my gosh! I can't believe this! My two favorite actors! Can't wait!

Ryan I'm so excited for this. My favorite actors and the writers. Can't wait

manana OMG!!! I Can't Wait!!

to I read the first paragraph synopsis and it is similar to Gakeppuchi Hotel. But then I read about ghosts.. It will be interesting

Jane Yay nice plot, ghost drama.

Lily Is this a dream..... my fav actors! Finally together in a drama.

Jingo I think i will pass too i really like Yeo Jin Goo (he was great un the crownded clowns) but the recently hong sister drama are so bad i don’t fell this drama too

Popcorn @Your Ahjussi, the writer is not the one who wrote The Legend of the Blue Sea/The Producers/You Who Came From the Stars but the HONG sisters who wrote A Korean Odyssey/Master's Sun/Big/Warm and Cozy and etc. Yes, they're one of the greatest writers to exist because all of their dramas are so good. Huhu. I cant wait for this especially that its IU, her recent drama My Mister was such a good one and Yeo Jin Goo just nailed one of the highest ratings for a cable drama for his The Crowned Clown so yeah, this is one of the most anticipated drama of all time. It's packed with a great team!

Fred Petition to change title to: Hotel de la Luna.

Del Luna is just wrong in Spanish. Please change. I am excited for this drama. But please change title. It is wrong in Spanish. Muchas Gracias! Kamsahamnida!

Kim soo hyun Whoa nation little sister has a drama with nation little brother. Well they grown up now but both still nation jewels. Cant wait for the drama :*

Maninder Kaur I'll pass this drama.. though I like IU but Yeo Jin is not my favorite actor

Nana OMO! Can't wait another creation from the Hong Sisters

Fangirl Im so proud of yjg, imagine a kdrama with iu. I love them ?❤

Your Ahjussi Whoa, director of While you were sleeping, and Doctors, plu plu plus the writer of Legend of the blue Sea, plus plus plus the yeo jin goo, one of the best young actor in our generation, and if course, our ultimate and goddess, Lee Ji An, IU!!! Ahhhcckkk so excited for this!

Lee min hoo IU & YEO JIN GOO OMG. two beautiful face for new 2019 couple of the year. Absolutely watch this even if the story not great, but i hope its great. My 2 favorite actor. Yeay. Love them both together

Sooyi I hope IU's hotel CEO character is like Han Ye-seul's spoiled but strong heiress from the Hong Sister's other drama, "Fantasy Couple". I liked how Han Ye-seul's character still had her old personality in her weakened state.

medalina they look good together...i love IU and Yeo Jin-Goo

KANA IF IU does take the project, I hope they cast a male lead she has NOT worked with yet!!! There are so many to choose from - Ji Chang Wook, Seo Kang Joon, Park Seo Joon, Park Bo Gum, Yoo Seung Ho, etc. - there are so many other actors out there. It just absolutely baffles me as to why so many commenters want her to be paired with people she already acted with.

Kim yoo jung. IU and jin-goo accept it plss

Sandes New and fresh couple kinda looking forward to this drama

Renea King Can IU please do a drama with SSH?

Aya If its true then its gonna be really good fantasy story, the director from My Love From The Stars and the writer is from My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox, hahaha maybe Kim Soo Hyun will be the lead male? he will be discharged in July

Kristine i wiss the male lead will be Joon Gi they look good together

HEY Lee Kwang Soo Please.

Zia with kang ha neul or siwan please!!!!

Crystal I hope Lee Joon gi because because he is expert with that

Retno With Kang HaNeul please :) He'll discharge soon on June 2019

Ela Joon gi and iu should reunite in this drama moon lovers fans are waiting for them to continue their love story

Dani I'm hoping for the IU ❤ to accept, and I hope the male protagonist masculine is someone super cool!

Sandes Love to see new role of iu.
