Let be sincere, I watched Crash Landing On You for Hyun Bin. But in this drama I discovered others wonderful actors and characters and I fell in love with this story, and especially the first part, in North Korea. It's really strange to say but in one hand, this drama make the viewers dislike North Korea because it shows how people are living there, it shows there is no justice and people are not free (like we all know). But in the other hand, the North Korean characters of this show (except for the evil characters) are the most likeable. I really like the main lead who was so sincere, heart softed and straightforward. He was ready to do anything for the woman he loves. I also liked all the woman in the village and, above all, I absolutely loved all the soldiers who work the protagonist Company. I loved them so much, and during the second part of the drama, I even prefered the scenes where they were than the scenes with our main couple. I also loved our second couple and I was so sad that the scenarists chose this ending for them, but it shows that life is not so beautiful.
I think that the second part in South Korea was good but it was too long (the episodes themselves were too long) and too teerful during the last episodes. I had the feeling that they spent most part of the series in the hospital... I didn't like Se Ri family, even at the end. The romance and chemistry however were perfect, I really felt the love between our leads. I love the evolution of Se Ri character and how she becomes so lovable. I liked her friendship with the other soldiers and how she makes so many presents for them and cry for them. It was too cute.
Finally I think the plot of this show (despite the fact it's happening in North Korea) is not so original. But it's kinda exotic and I liked discovers the life of North Korean people (even if it the vision of South Korean and it's not the reality because we don't really know what exactly is happening in this country). Plus, maybe Hyun Bin was a little old to play his younger self aha.
I loved the OST they were so amazingly beautiful! And the cameos were incredibly funny. Love the acting also.
