I started watching this drama on Netflix as it was airing. I do not usually watch a drama that is currently airing as I love watching drama episodes altogether. As soon as I saw that this was an upcoming drama, I put it on my 'Want to Watch' list. The premise is very interesting and I feel like if not done correctly, this drama could have been awful. Luckily, that is not what happened. This is an excellent drama and I would highly recommend watching it. After one or two episodes, you will want to keep going.
The storyline is great because of course, it is a love story but it is not just about the main couple. They each have their own lives and personalities outside of their romance, which is really interesting to watch. First of all, I am a sucker for star-crossed lovers romances so if you enjoy that kind of thing, then this is right up your alley. The way they showed the differences in the lives of the people living on both sides of the border felt realistic. It made it easier to adapt to watching the characters as the drama switched back and forth between the North and South.
The summary for this drama depicts the female lead as a "South Korean heiress" so I expected her to be spoilt and annoying but that was not the case. Of course, she was spoilt but her character developed with the plot. I liked Yoo Se Ri's character. She showed a lot of depth and emotion, making her feel like a female lead that you could root for. I hadn't really seen much of Son Ye Jin in dramas before, but her performance was amazing! I often found myself crying alongside her. From the beginning, I liked Ri Jung Hyuk as a character. His stoic attitude was entertaining to watch especially in comedic moments. His loyal, quiet, and surprisingly sweet character made me like him even more. I loved the sweet moments between Ri Jung Hyuk and Yoon Se Ri. I am surprised to say that I actually enjoyed watching the scenes with the parents. Watching Yoon Se Ri's mother interact with her throughout the drama was very moving. Their scenes together definitely made me cry. I also liked the stoic character of Ri Jung Hyuk's father. I thought I would hate him since he would probably want to separate the main couple, but I found myself cheering along when he surprised us with his loyalty to his son.
I cannot write a review without mentioning the four soldiers that work alongside Ri Jung Hyuk. They were so entertaining to watch and they provided much needed comedic relief in the most devasting scenes. The women in the village that became friends with Yoo Se Ri were so funny in their interactions. Na Wol Suk was so funny whenever she would come out and try to intimidate newcomers. Her character reminded me of Yang Kyung Won.
The music is very beautiful in this drama. It perfectly portrays the emotions of each scene.
I would definitely rewatch this drama. I enjoyed watching these characters interact with one another. Although there were some characters I hated such as Yoon Se Ri's older brother and her sister in law, it was the kind of hate where you will keep watching because you cannot wait for them to get what they deserve. Crash Landing on You is an amazing drama and I think it is one of the top dramas to come out of 2019.
