My Holo Love is a little out of the box compared to the usual dramas in Korea. It actually reminds me a lot of Western TV Shows. The technology, the action and pacing is very much like that of US tv shows such as Person Of Interest. And it blends that style perfectly for typical K-Drama ideas and tropes such as the romance elements of the drama plus the prosopagnosia story - which I've never really seen outside of Korean tv. The 12 episodes makes My Holo Love a very exciting series that doesn't waste time in character development or plot. It's a very easy watch.

Yoo Hyun Min has two roles to play in this series, Nan Do and Holo and he does a really good job at portraying both despite the vast differences in personality and mind-set. He has great chemistry with Go Sung Hee, as So Yeon. The romance between So Yeon and Holo is very sweet but when it comes to the more prickly Nan Do, it's just even better at times. Even outside of the romance, emotionally and action wise, it's on point. The side characters are all good and while the main focus is on the main leads and the plot, they do add some depth with their actions. Chan Sung is torn between his father and his love for Yoo Jin, Nan Do's sister, Detective Nam wants justice regardless of who, even if our leads commit crimes but he is gentle and understanding. Same with his younger partner. Just a strong backcast that supports everything else in a small way.

Very good series. Would watch again.
