Note : This is not a review . I will be only telling the plus and minus of the show .

Pluses:
1. Compelling Leading Man Lead actor
Song Joong Ki, was perfect as Officer Yoo Shi Jin. I loved this character. He was cool, funny, self-aware, charming, strong and fair leader. Shi Jin was an attractive package. He saved the girl, people, and made the world a safer place, all while being a good guy. Shi Jin appealed to women and men viewers both. The women wanted to date Shi Jin and the men wanted to be Shi Jin. This was Joong Ki’s comeback project after serving his two years of mandatory military service. Will he ever top the popularity of this character? Joong Ki had superb chemistry with every character, even the ones with limited acting ability. His romantic relationship with the leading lady was a slow build. Because he risked his life everyday, he understood his love interest’s hesitation to commit to a relationship. But they were like magnets that pulled each other together and their relationship could not be denied. I enjoyed this pair’s mutual respect for each other.

2. Likable Leading Lady.
Lead actress, Song Hye Kyo, portrayed Doctor Kang Mo Yeon with a soft but strong stance. Mo Yeon evolved to connect with her humanity for others instead of the stove piped “it is about me” life. Mo Yeon was the voice of reason and caution in the romantic relationship with Shi Jin. She did not make the choice to have a romance with Shin Jin lightly. Should she get involved with a man that could die any day in the line of duty? Her heart said yes, but her brain cautioned her to say no. And she was right to be concerned. Loving Shi Jin did offer great joy but also offered a life of loneliness and fear when they were apart. Love doesn’t conquer all when you are alone and fearing for your partner’s well being. Shi Jin’s dangerous profession took him away without warning. During that time Hye Kyo’s portrayal of a woman in pain was superb.

3. Strong Second Leads.
The appealing second lead was Officer Dae Young, portrayed by Jin Goo. Dae Young was Shi Jin’s fellow soldier and best friend. His romance was a forbidden one because his love was a soldier complete with a disapproving father. Dae Young was quieter, steady, and true to his convictions, with a quick sense of humor. His counterpart was Officer Yoon Myeong Joo portrayed by Kim Ji Won. She was stuck loving Dae Young who refused to break the military rules and date her. In the first part of the series this character had limited story but came into her own in the second half of the series. Ji Won’s portrayal was excellent when Myeong Joo fought a deadly virus. Dae Young and Myeong Joo’s love story spent the first of the series longing for each other but kicked into gear in the second half. It was worth the wait.

4. Rich Romance.
Color me surprised that a military and medical drama had a superb romance between our leads and a solid romance between the secondary leads. Our leads were cute together delivering sassy banter, soul searching looks, and challenges to each other throughout the series. This couple had a level of maturity. Their chemistry was excellent. They respected each other. No, they did not always agree with the other’s choices, but they supported each other’s right to be individuals. Isn’t that awesome? They granted each other the right to make the best choice for them without making the other guilty. The second leads’ romance was a slower build to a solid couple. When the series started their romance was in the past. Whether to restart it was the question. Dae Young’s refused to break the rules putting Myeong Joo into a powerless position. She had to wait for him to open the door that she stood behind. But the payoff was there. Both couples took their time evolving their romantic relationships. Why rush? I enjoyed the ride with them.

5. Bromance Bliss.
I love a strong relationship between male characters (aka bromance). Shi Jin and Dae Young were the perfect bromance. They supported each other, joked with each other, and were honest and direct with each other on tough topics. During their military missions, they almost didn’t need to speak with each other, they knew each other so well that glances sufficed. The chemistry between Joong Ki and Jin Goo was excellent.

6. Service was Respected.
Most dramas are about individuals. Descendants of the Sun embraced service to the others. Service as a primary theme was unusual and refreshing. It provided a common thread that linked every military and medical person. United they made a terrific team. The military executed their missions to protect people or their country or both. The medical team realized helping others made them stronger people. At one point int he series, Mo Yeon wish for her graduating medical colleagues was “I hope everyone that took pledges can keep them throughout the earth and under the sun.” Mahatma Gandhi’s perspective is undeniable “The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.”

7. Cohesive Story.
The writers balanced the military and medical into a cohesive story. The first episode was nearly perfect. When they went to the foreign location the story was solid, peaking during episodes that dealt with the aftermath of the earthquake. When they returned to Korea there was a slight downturn in the story. The series was written by Kim Eun Sook (Secret Garden and The Heirs) and Kim Won Suk (The Queen’s Classroom). The writers delivered terrific banter in the form of playful and friendly exchange of teasing remarks between all our characters. I’m a professed “banter-holic” and this series hit the mark for me. Descendants of the Sun was preproduced before airing, unusual was most dramas use the live-shoot production format. I think this allowed the writers for formulate a complete story and the production team to bring the drama to fruition missing some of the typical latter third of the series pitfalls many dramas have using the live-shoot format.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Minuses :
1. Foreign locations meant foreign actors which meant sub par acting. There were varying degrees of acting skills in our foreign actors. Some were stilted, like the bartender, and some did not have the depth of acting necessary to play their character to the fullest like Mr. Bad (David McInnis). The behind-the-scenes special stated the Urk children had never acted before. This was not a surprise. While annoying, the writers maintained the right balance so the foreign characters were secondary in the episodes. The vast majority of the episodes were not downgraded due to bad acting.

2. Okay Final Episode. Why are final episodes often lacking in dramas? This one had a strong first half as our couples resolved their issues. But after that it was a collection victory lap scenes that did not feel cohesive. In the final scene, they broke the fourth wall and spoke directly to the audience. It did not add value so it came off more perplexing than positive.

3. Our leading man was Ironman. Shi Jin unrealistically avoided major injury when he should have been injured. Episode 14 was especially ridiculous, flat lining one minute then engaging in a face-off with rogue North Korean soldier the next.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Would I Recommend this Series?
Absolutely. Joong Ki’s perfect portrayal of the leading man Shi Jin was the driver for the series. The lead’s romance was just that – romantic – taking it’s time and it was worth the wait. It was terrific to see a leading couple that respected each other. The secondary lead’s romance also hit the mark. The chemistry between the leads, the second leads, and the leads as a foursome was superb. The writers deftly balanced the military missions, the medical team’s deployment, and a delivered real romance between two couples. This drama isn’t perfect, but it has intangibles that mitigate many of the negatives.

Wasn’t the best but isn’t a bad watch

This was my first k drama I had this on my kdrama list for a while I’m more used to watching cdramas so knew it was gonna be different but if I’m honest this wasn’t the best for me.
Positives:
I completely fell for the ml his acting was amazing and in the drama he was just perfect although having a hard job usually caused him to lose lots of time with Kang I really loved him cz he cares and loved her but also truly appreciated her and respected her.
The second leads were at first not my fave just generally cz the second fl seemed like the bossy type but when u got to k her a bit more she was actually quite lovely I really loved their chemistry and both were very likeable although they broke up many times they worked through the hardships together and the cute scenes were amazing
The plot was quite nice and the graphics never disappointed me
I also liked the support couples who although we didn’t see much of were really cute and a nice watch
Loved the whole military bits the missions that were shown always put me on edge and I really liked it
Highlight overall was ml for me ?

Negatives:
I didn’t like fl as such she did not respect or understand the ml point of view at all she thought that she saved lives no matter wot and he killed people to save and for that reason she didn’t choose to date him at first she kept demanding for answers as to where he’d gone for missions etc when he was not able to say due to regulations she was stubborn and quite clearly hurt him when he was just the sweetest to her and when they did end up dating the romance scenes were completely useless I think in the entirety of this drama it was like three hugs three kisses not saying there’s anything wrong with that but just a sense of connection was not portrayed or a sense of love and wanting to be with each other this was portrayed a bit by the ml but the fl did not bother much she just seemed like a total nag and for this reason I didn’t like her much
Secondly the second leads had a much better and more romantic relationship than the main leads themselves although they broke up three times that love was always there hugs and that sense of wanting to be around each other was easily portrayed and although I liked that I craved that same feeling for the male leads but unfortunately we barely got that even towards the end although they were more close than before.
Overall the negatives lied mostly with the fl and the genres were supposed to be military and romance and honestly I’d barely call if a romance as it just seemed like there wasn’t any
No hate to the actress ofc she did well in portraying this annoying character but I generally wish they made her more understanding and loving like the ml was cz I feel like apart from the military scenes which I loved sm the romance as I said was hardly there and it would hv rather been better if they didn’t get together at all.
I will not be rewatching this as I dt see anything worthy in it and although loved the whole military idea romance was poor and boring so Yh will not be rewatching and if I do it will probs be the fighting scenes but that may be Abt it


I decided to edit this after watching my glory I think myself and plenty of others did not hate the fl ofc but disliked her character here in the glory she is literally a queen she acted amazingly and the whole drama is so binge worthy
I’m also editing after knowing the whole song song drama
I’m very disappointed in Song Joong Ki I think me and many were def thinking that he was some amazing person when he’s a completely disgusting human being Song Hye Kyo deserved so much better and I’m glad her comeback in the glory is so popular she deserves it more than anyone
If anything ig it gives u more reason to not bother with this drama but yh despite everything there’s better dramas out there this isn’t it

Seriously this is one of the best kdramas that I have watched . I was so addicted to it and completed it in 2 days . I thought of watching this drama for a long time but I never did . I didn't know whether I would like it so I thought that I would watch it later and I kept on doing the same for a long time but while I was watching ost's of kdramas on youtube I heard the ost of this drama it was so good so I thought okay I would give it a try and it was one of the best decisions that I have ever made . The storyline is good and the script and the dialogues were written so well .The cast especially the leads are so good looking. The male lead is so handsome and cute and I wasn't able to take my eyes off him . They way he acted was awesome like sometimes he would be serious other times he would be joking around , it was good to watch. The interactions between the main leads are so good and the way they joke around with each other was so refreshing to see and also the interactions between the male lead and his friend in this drama ,their bromance and their friendship is awesome. They are like partners in crime together. While watching this drama you will be happy , sad , crying like a baby and sometimes you will get second hand embarrassed and sometimes you will be laughing so hard. You will feel all types of emotions . Okay that was really long. Finally what I want to say is this drama is worth watching and the ost is the best.

Why I Love Descendants of the Sun❤️❤️

If you are looking for a drama that has romance, action, comedy, and drama, then you should watch Descendants of the Sun. It is one of my favorite Korean dramas of all time and here are some reasons why:

- The chemistry between the leads. Song Joong-ki and Song Hye-kyo play Yoo Si-jin and Kang Mo-yeon, a special forces captain and a surgeon who fall in love despite their different professions and values. They have amazing chemistry on screen and their scenes are full of sparks and emotions. They make you root for their love story and feel their pain and joy.

- The supporting cast. Jin Goo and Kim Ji-won play Seo Dae-young and Yoon Myung-ju, another couple who face challenges in their relationship due to their military backgrounds. They are also very adorable and funny together and provide a contrast to the main couple. The other actors who play the soldiers, doctors, nurses, and locals also do a great job in bringing their characters to life.

- The plot. The drama is not just about romance, but also about the conflicts and dangers that the characters face in a fictional war-torn country called Uruk. There are many thrilling and suspenseful moments that keep you on the edge of your seat. There are also many heartwarming and humorous moments that balance out the tension and make you laugh and cry.

- The message. The drama explores themes such as patriotism, duty, sacrifice, loyalty, friendship, and humanity. It shows how the characters overcome their differences and work together to help others in need. It also shows how they cope with loss and trauma and find hope and happiness in each other.

- The soundtrack. The drama has a beautiful and catchy soundtrack that matches the mood and tone of the scenes. Some of the songs that I love are "Always" by Yoon Mi-rae, "You Are My Everything" by Gummy, "Everytime" by Chen and Punch, and "This Love" by Davichi.

Descendants of the Sun is a drama that I would recommend to anyone who loves Korean dramas or wants to try one. It has everything that makes a drama enjoyable and memorable. It is a drama that I will never get tired of watching.

Tooooo harsh reviews for such a great smooth drama

Long time i didn't watch a drama that captured me that much

The first thing that bothered me a lot that joong ki was shot too much LOL

And the second was when they passed superficial through the second story
I wished they focused more on,
Cause i loved to know the details about their story really :(

What was really illogical for me when the ML and the second ML were shot and the director made u thought both were dead,
And then they brought them as captives only ... WEIRD ?

What made me fall for this drama was joong ki when he looked for hye kyo during the drama

His look made me happy ^_^
& when he was teasing her i loved him sooooo till the limit my eyes was getting out hearts

I found it fluffy, cute and amazing romantic drama through war and difficulties

Il nostro lavoro è una missione
Avevo questo drama in lista da una vita.
Complice le ottime recensioni ed i commenti entusiastici che ho letto in giro ero entusiasta di potermelo finalmente vedere e posso dire che è stato una buona e piacevole visione.
Parlando per sommi capi…mi è piaciuto molto.
Solitamente a metà serie comincia a calarmi il “ ma a che puntata siamo?” “ quanto manca alla fine?” il che implica non la noia, ma una percezione di quanto visto:
del tipo…sono alla 14 puntata ma in realtà mi sembra di essere alla 5.
Questo è quello che mi è successo mentre vedevo Descendants of the Sun ( DOTS per gli amic)i e credo che ciò sia accaduto per due motivi:

il primo è che ho trovato un ottimo equilibrio dentro le puntate.
Dal dramma alla commedia per passare a momenti d’azione e/o scene introspettive. Tutto ben calibrato e che mi hanno portato a diverse emozioni durante la visione di una singola puntata. Questo a fatto si che non mi annoiassi quasi mai.
la seconda cosa è il mix tra la trama orizzontale e verticale
Apparte le varie storie d’amore e le evoluzioni o crescite dei personaggi - che sono la trama orizzontale - tutto il resto si può considerare come una trama verticale:
gli eventi si susseguono, diversi per episodi: accoltellamenti, terremoti, operazioni chirurgiche, rapimenti. In ogni episodio accadevano una di queste cose e questo, mi ha ricordato una sit-com.
Ma questo utilizzo è stato utile per conoscere e ampliare i vari personaggi, anche quelli considerati minori.
Non c’è stato un approfondimento - che poteva risultare pesante - per tutti ma, a grandi linee, la serie ha saputo delineare i vari characters, seppur minori.

Mi sono sentita empatica verso il Dottor Lee Chi-hoon, giovane medico che pensava di andare ad Urk in villeggiatura e poi si è ritrovato a causa delle millemila disgrazie ad essere costretto a divenire davvero un dottore.

E questo mi è piaciuto tanto.

Un altro punto importante e che ho adorato, sono i tantissimi spunti di riflessione che la serie ha tirato in ballo in OGNI episodio. Alcuni purtroppo ripetuti, ma in linea di massima, tutti molto interessanti.

A farla da padrone è comunque il lavoro dei protagonisti ed è proprio su questo tema ciò su cui la serie si concentra: il mestiere del dottore e quello del soldato.
Due incarichi che superficialmente sembrano agli opposti: uno salva le persone e l’altra le ammazza.
Ma la realtà è molto più complessa di così e DOTS scrive un approfondimento bellissimo su queste due professioni:
La crisi del dottor Lee Chi-hoon, il giuramento di Ippocrate della Dottoressa Kang, le difficoltà e la concentrazione necessaria per operare e salvare delle vite di fronte a grandi tragedie. L’impegno delle forze armate e la consapevolezza che la loro è una missione che sottrae alla morte gli altri.
Ed è stato inevitabile per me, mentre vedevo i dottori all’opera nella serie, rivolgere un pensiero alla nostra attualità ed un ringraziamento a tutti gli operatori che in questi giorni combattono una durissima battaglia.
Per dirla con le parole della Dottoressa Kang: Il virus è il campo di battaglia dei medici.

DOTS è una serie che fa riflettere su certe tematiche.

C’è anche da dire che se da una parte il “lavoro” come protagonista sia interessante, dall’altra è stato anche limitante: chi sono i 4 protagonisti fuori dai loro impieghi?

L’ultima cosa che mi è piaciuta riguarda il rapporto tra Big Boss e Wolf. Una bromance carinissima che mi ha portato un sacco di sorrisi e tanto divertimento. Ad un certo punto mi hanno ricordato tantissimo Bud Spencer e Terence Hill: uno scanzonato e attaccabrighe, l’altro più serio e composto ma sempre disposto a seguire l’amico e perciò faceva anche più ridere.
Buono anche il cast con un + a Song Joog Ki perchè la sua interpretazione di Big Boss mi ha alleggerito tantissimo la visione.
Mi ha soddisfatto anche la crescita ed evoluzione - per alcuni plateale - dei vari personaggi, prima tra tutti la Dottoressa Kang: da medico per soldi a dottore per vocazione.
Ma ci sono anche cose che non mi hanno proprio convinto, primo fra tutti le varie coppie.
Non frantendetemi…sono carine, mi hanno fatto divertire ed emozionare a tratti. In linea generale sono state piacevoli da guardare.
Ma non ho mai sentito un grande impatto emotivo. Non ho mai percepito quella ship devastante che tiri fuori quando shippi i due tipi e “ se non si mettono insieme entro i prossimi 10 secondi, entro nella serie e gli do fuoco”.
Forse questo è avvenuto perchè non ho mai rilevato un vero pericolo nelle loro storie d’amore: il veto del padre di Yoon Myeong-joo alla storia della figlia con Seo mi è parso forzato ed i due protagonisti hanno girato attorno alla stessa questione per 16 episodi: sei un soldato ergo puoi morire ergo non sono sicura di voler stare con te.
Che per carità..ci sta. Ma ogni tot tornava fuori questo discorso e ad una certa mi ha pure annoiata.
Pericolo poi che non esiste in termini, perchè non c’è un villain che dall’inizio della serie ostacola i piani dei protagonisti: l’unico era Agus e me lo hanno seccato a metà stagione. Addio Agus…T_T
(ma forse meglio così perchè era caratterizzato con l’accetta)

In conclusione comunque DOTS è un drama che consiglio altamente: ha un buon mixer, ottime tematiche - seppur alcune ripetute - e piacevoli storie d’amore. Nonchè un Song Joog Ki adorabile che quando sorride si rischiara anche il sole in quel posto orribile e sfigato che è Urk

Voglio rivederlo.

Voglio davvero, caldamente, assolutamente, rivederlo. Non è il drama più bello che ho visto finora ma è sicuramente quello che mi è entrato nell'anima, quello che mi ha fatto più riflettere (assieme a pinocchio), quello che consiglierei a priori.
La scintilla tra due persone diverse, divise da lavori diametralmente opposti: lei salva le vite, lui le fa fuori. Eppure queste due personalità collideranno in un mix potentissimo in grado di farti riflettere su molte cose. Spunti di riflessione, inclusi in tutti gli episodi, che ho apprezzato. Ho amato i personaggi, sopratutto il giovane dottore che di fronte al disastro dovrà davvero crescere.
Ci sono forse un po' troppe sciagure? Casini?
Eppure l'ho trovato molto veritiero, a tratti crudo e spietato.
Avrei apprezzato un maggiore approfondimento del passato della seconda coppia, con Wolf per capirci.
La storia d'amore principale mi è piaciuta davvero tanto, ma forse quello che ho amato di più di tutto è il contesto in cui questa cresce e matura.
Un pezzo del mio cuore ♡

A must watch for one of the best of it's time!

Honestly been so long since I last watched it... I agree with the first review on this, however, it was one of my very first K-Dramas and I have to say it made a pretty big impact on me. What else is to say, I love a good medical meets military show never seen that before so very interesting. Also, the main couple was so cute, sadly they did not live through the fantasy in real life which made me sad, but the drama is very good if you're looking for an honorary popular K-Dramas over the years.

???

Descendants of the Sun" explores themes of sacrifice, duty, and the impact of war on individuals and relationships. It highlights the challenges faced by those in military service and the medical profession.
ontop of that The drama also touches upon humanitarian efforts and the complexities of international relations, particularly in conflict zones. The portrayal of medical emergencies and challenges faced by Kang Mo-yeon in a war zone adds a layer of realism to the drama I like how every injury or diagnosis of a patient was. a very real and possible thing that could happen and how the way those patients were treated was relatively close and or the exact thing you would actually do. The pacing is very good and everything was well thought out I am on my 20th rewatch and I still get the same feelings I did when I first watched it.

susahnya menjadi pasangan seorang yang selalu memprioritaskan negara sebelum pasangan

Descendant of The Sun adalah sebuah drama yang menggambarkan betapa sulitnya jika pasangan kita adalah seorang Tentara. Belum lagi tentara yang pangkatnya khusus, seorang kapten, dan berada di pasukan khusus sehingga mereka benar-benar menjadi garda depan untuk segala situasi paling bahaya yang mengancam warga-warganya.

Jika pasanganmu adalah seorang yang mengabdi pada bangsa, bisakah kamu menahan rasa kesepian ditinggal tanpa kepastian apakah ia akan kembali dalam keadaan sehat atau kemungkinan bahwa ia akan pergi begitu saja kapanpun?

Ketakutan inilah yang coba diintepretasikan oleh Song Hye Kyo melalui perannya sebagai Kang Mo Yeon, seorang dokter yang tidak sengaja jatuh cinta pada seorang pria yang ternyata memiliki profesi sebagai tentara dengan banyak rahasia yang dimilikinya.

Tentara itu adalah Yoo Si Jin, yang diperankan oleh Song Joong Ki.

Pertemuan kedua tokoh ini sebenarnya merupakan pertemuan yang klasik, bagaikan sebuah takdir, keduanya langsung saling tertarik setelah pertemuan pertama mereka. Karena ketertarikan mereka itulah, keduanya mulai mengatur rencana untuk bisa berkencan layaknya orang-orang pacaran pada umumnya. Sayangnya, pekerjaan Si Jin membuatnya sering meninggalkan Mo Yeon di tengah-tengah kencan mereka. Dan Mo Yeon tidak mendapat penjelasan apa-apa mengenai alasan yang membuat Si Jin meninggalkannya karena itu adalah rahasia dari pekerjaannya. Mengetahui bahwa ketertarikan mereka saja tidak cukup untuk membuat hubungan keduanya berlangsung lama, Mo Yeon memutuskan untuk segera mengakhiri hubungan mereka yang bahkan belum dimulai.

Si Jin yang memahami ketakutan Mo Yeonpun menghormati keputusan wanita itu dan mereka berdua akhirnya memilih untuk berpisah sebelum perasaan mereka menjadi semakin dalam.

8 Bulan Berlalu, Si Jin dan Mo Yeon sudah kembali ke kehidupan mereka masing-masing.
Tapi sepertinya takdir belum menyerah untuk mempertemukan mereka, pekerjaan Mo Yeon sebagai dokter membawanya untuk kembali bertemu Si Jin dimana Si Jin serta timnya bertugas menjadi tim khusus untuk melindungi tim medis yang diketuai oleh Mo Yeon. Karena kali ini lingkup pekerjaan mereka saling bersinggungan, Mo Yeon mulai mengetahui pekerjaan seperti apa yang dilakukan Si Jin selama ini. Dan meskipun Mo yeon terus berusaha menjauh demi melindungi perasaannya, tetapi ia tidak bisa menghentikan dirinya untuk terus berusaha disisi Si Jin yang selalu berada di ambang kematian.

=======================

Sejujurnya, waktu menonton drama ini aku tidak berekspektasi akan menyukai keseluruhan ceritanya. Mengingat sebelumnya aku sudah mencoba berkali-kali menonton drama ini dan di waktu yang sama selalu gagal, mungkin memang buka tipe drama kesukaanku. Alasanku menonton sejujurnya karena ost yang tiba-tiba sering muncul di fyp tiktok hehe, dan akhirnya aku menonton karena penasaran sama second couple dicerita ini.

Jadi di awal episode banyak yang aku cepet-cepetin, sampai di episode dua atau tiga, aku terhipnotis sama kedua tokoh utamanya.

Sebelum menonton, entah kenapa aku menyakinkan diri sendiri bahwa kecil kemungkinan aku akan suka sama drama ini. Aku takut kecewa karena drama ini banyak menonjolkan visual dari para aktornya. Awalnya, sampai aku menonton ke bagian turning point pertama yang ditunjukkan untuk memutuskan bahwa drama ini sangat worth untuk ditonton.

Ada yang terkesan klise di awal cerita, tapi itu hanya sepenggal opening untuk membangun emosi agar tidak mendadak. Dikarenakan penceritaan dramanya maju jadi memang opening yang agak klise untuk menunjukkan sejauh apa mereka saling jatuh cinta kurasa cukup penting untuk pada akhirnya memiliki arti yang lebih besar ketika dimunculkan dalam cerita utamanya.

Ketika sudah masuk ke inti cerita, yah, aku tidak bisa berhenti untuk mengikuti sampai akhir. Emosinya dibangun dengan sangat tepat, dan tidak berlebihan. Selain itu tokoh-tokohnya benar-benar menunjukkan akting yang sangat matang.

Must watch

It's jus luv...I jus wanted that this drama won't end. The ML and the FL compliment each other so we'll. Their coordination, acting, chemistry is do good. Also the luv story of second lead is to good. Every concept is expressed so nicely. This is going to be on my top list among all the Korean dramas I have watched.
The relationship between a soldier and a civilian is shown so wonderfully that you can literally feel the happiness, the pain, the excitement, the love, the separation, the parting they go through.

Even the other characters are interesting, every character has their own story and views.


Do watch. Must watch.
