Memories of the Alhambra[5] (Korean알함브라 궁전의 추억) is a 2018 South Korean television series, starring Hyun Bin and Park Shin-hye.[6] Primarily set in Spain (and in South Korea in later episodes), the series centers on a company CEO and a hostel owner who get entangled in a series of mysterious incidents surrounding a new and intricate augmented reality game inspired by the stories of the Alhambra Palace.[7] It aired on cable network tvN from December 1, 2018, to January 20, 2019, every Saturday and Sunday at 21:00 (KST).[8][9][10][11] It is also available for online streaming on Netflix.[12]

The drama is one of the highest-rated Korean dramas in cable television history, and was praised for its creative plot and its unexpected twists.[13] Its title also alludes to Francisco Tárrega's eponymous classical guitar piece Recuerdos de la Alhambra, which is also a part of the series' soundtrack.
