I watched this movie recently after stumbling upon it while searching for a good war movie. There is another movie "Flag of our Fathers" which tells you the american perspective of this same event, also directed by Clint Eastwood. It doesn't glorify any side of war, it just portrays instincts and emotions of soldier who either gets perished in War or gets lucky enough to survive and tell us their stories regardless of which side they were fighting for.... Countless wars, Victories and defeats are what has shaped this world the way it is now.. so movies like this help you empathize with human who were embracing as well as fighting the evil self of human.. you will definitely love the awesome soundtracks of this movie....
I had high expectation from this drama after going through its rating , summary, genre and its remake tag ( yeah I skipped reviews). It started off promising but as the drama progressed ,the story line got messier, They wanted us to find it mysterious but all we could find was just a clueless writing . I was hoping the female characters to be bold and smart but they came out as surprisingly dumb ones and some were not even good at acting.Only Sang Hoon was somehow interesting character and I guess he was keeping me hooked up till the end. If anybody found this drama thrilling , then your threshold for thrill is really really low.
I am not a fan of cheesy romance drama so this drama was already on my watchlist.... I am way more impressed with the amazing story line.. brilliant cast and direction.....It focused on the character development and building bonds between them....There was not a single dull moment in any episode , again thanks to the perfect amount of humour at perfect timing....It would have been just another kdrama if writer had given a happy ending to every character....... even though felt bad for some character but this was another flavour that writer added in his unique recipe...waiting for another work of the writer/ director...actually sequel would be great in the near future..
