I Remember You is definitely the best Korean drama I have watched.
-Story - The story was riveting. It sucks you in from beginning to end with the main plot and then there is nice little side plots.
The show is heavily based on both morals and the perception of good and bad.
Despite being noted as a romantic thriller, I would say it's a thriller with some romance permeating through. There is no love triangle (although there is few crushes about in my opinion).The romance is slow and is not overbearing so if you were thinking that you don't want to watch a love story with some crime thrown in - this show is perfect.
The ending is well, a little open-ended which allows you I suppose to draw your own conclusions.
-Acting/Cast - I loved the cast choice in this show. I didn't realise this until I finished watching the show however. It was some of the best acting I've seen in East Asian television.
Park Bo-gum and Seo In-guk had great chemistry.
I'm not even going to lie, I struggled to dislike teen Lee Joon-young because he was too handsome, it was distracting. Do Kyung-soo played the part brilliantly.
I liked that Jang Na-ra's character Cha Ji-an was full of heart but she could be a bit of frustrating character. She does come across as a little annoying and reckless at times. I think the writing of her character was little hit and miss because I felt as if she could have been written to be a better detective - she seemed a bit clueless at times to be part of a special investigation team.
-Music - The music was great and I have listened to Remember by Dream Cloud on Youtube on numerous occasions.
-Rewatch - This is has a lot of rewatch value despite myself not every really rewatching a series. This is because there are so many bits towards the end that you do not expect that come together.
-Overall - One of the best East Asian shows I have watched.
