“Hi all, this is Chanyeol of EXO. I’m starring as Jung Se-ju in the TV series ‘Memories of the Alhambra’ premiering tonight at 9. I’m feeling quite nervous ahead of the pilot episode. Se-ju and Chanyeol need your support,” Chanyeol wrote on the group’s official Instagram account Saturday.

The nighttime weekend series of the suspense-romance genre revolves around the CEO of an investment company, Yoo Jin-Woo, who meets the owner of a hostel, Jung Hee-joo, in Granada, Spain.

The two lead roles are played by “The Secret Garden” star Hyun Bin and “The Heirs” heroine Park Shin-hye.

Chanyeol plays the little brother of Hee-joo and a reclusive programmer who develops an intricate augmented reality game.

The series’ director Ahn Gil-ho described the EXO star’s role as “a crucial intermediary character that wields influence over the plot and other characters.”
