Okay, I was apprehensive about this one, because it is SUPER popular. And that means only 2 things: either it IS good, or it is utterly horrendous. It usually never is average...
Well, first time for everything.

Cast is not super attractive, nobody is really hot but they are likeable. Main couple consists of two professionals, a soldier going on "special missions" like rescuing hostages from Taliban, and a doctor doing everything from appearances at ER to complicated surgeries. There is a montage showing them both fighting on their job: him literally, her in surgery room. It looks good budget, standard drama, like from mainstream movies. Then there is a standard rom-com like I imagine is on shows like 'Grey's Anatomy' or 'E.R.'. Though I personally never watched the US shows I just mentioned, overall it oddly feels like this k-drama was made for american audience.

It's not bad, it's just... Meh.

I have absolutely no complaints or criticism to write about this drama, perhaps it would be better if I had... I just truly and honestly feel zero interest in seeing more episodes of it.

I watched this purely for Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo and boy, did they pay the price for the stunning visuals and spectacular backdrops. The cinematography and visuals were absolutely stunning. SJK ans SHK are beautiful to watch too of course. Definitely a big draw for most people to watch- beautiful to look at. With that said, the plot fell short for me in the last two episodes. Things did not add up and it kind of took the cheap way out but I didn't mind it too much since the other 14 episodes were good. There were some scenes that have you at the edge of your seat holding your breath for a couple of seconds (even though you already know what's going to happen). The music was great, the chemistry was just oozing off the screen. It's worth the hype but don't overthink some of the plot points. Definitely a rewatch for some of the cute cheesy lines the alpha male lead continues to deliver. You may become lactose intolerant after awhile though.

Dropped

Descendants of the Sun was the first Korean drama that I've heard of and wanted to watch, but never got the chance due to accessibility issues. After reading the reviews for the drama about how this series is overrated, my expectations were tempered. However, this remains as one of the most popular K-dramas so I had to watch it. And.... I was disappointed. Upon watching the first episode, the story didn't make much sense. Characters made decisions that didn't seem logical. The mixture of military action, rom-com and hospital drama didn't mesh either. And the story was quite cheesy and awkward. At least the ML is cute and hot though, providing some eye candy in an otherwise dull premiere episode. The next few episodes were cheesy but entertaining however, Episode 4 was quite boring, even with the finale of the two leads kissing. I've decided to drop this K-drama as I don't see the story getting any better. On to the next K-drama...

I don't understand the hype!!!

I just watched the first episode and already want to drop it. For me if the story has not intrigued me till the end of first episode i can't continue to wait for it to get better. Like it was hell paced means hell fast. The first episode and they started to like one another without any such major interaction. I mean I may be wrong but it's just that I didn't get the vibes for their chemistry.
Maybe the story gets better maybe not
But for me it wasn't worth the watch.

I wished i could atleast want to continue second episode but no.. I just wanted it to finish it was boring as hell.

Also I don't get what the high rating is for.

Again if you want to watch some obvious sweet fluffy creepy type storyline,you can go for it.

Não tenho muito o que falar sobre Descendants of the Sun, é o estilo de obra que eu gosto bastante, ação, drama e romance, a trama é muito boa é bem diferente do abtual, o vilão e bem construído é carismático, personagens e atuações excelentes, fotografia e a coreografia das lutas foram muito boas também, infelizmente ou felizmente o casal secundário rouba a cena, não que o casal principal seja ruim, e mais pelo fato do casal secundário já terem uma história mais longa e momentos que o principal, só não dei 10 pelo simples fato da bobeira que fizeram na cena que eles supostamente haviam morrido, acho que poderia ter sido melhor trabalhado aquilo, achei bem forçado, tomaram um míssil na cara e depois aparecem vivos do nada, extremamente forçado pra uma obra desse nível, enfim!

La mejor que he visto

Muy buena serie, con dos muy buenos romances. Es simpatica y tiene un poquito de todo: accion, aventura, romance, comedia. Un amor entre un soldado y una doctora en cuales sus profesiones tienen obligaciones aveces opuestas. Eso sale a relucir en las varias situaciones en las que se encuentran, situaciones militares y situaciones medicas. El segundo romance es tambien muy bueno. Este es entre dos soldados, ella con un papa de alto rango y el de bajo rango en el ejercito. Me encanto la musica, con muy buenas voces.

você quem escolhe se vai se emociar ou não...

Não tenho palavras para esse drama, porque se eu começar agora, não vou conseguir falar porque as lágrimas vão inundar meu rosto. Foi sem dúvida o melhor drama da minha vida. Conseguiu marcar porque foi meu primeiro drama de 16 episódios e porque a atuação dos atores me tocou muito. "Só querer viver um amor, mesmo que as circunstâncias levem o tempo que precisamos, é muito doloroso." Cada vez que a Dra. Kang chorava, parecia que meu coração estava próximo ao dela, pois chorei junto. Agradeço a todos os atores, produtores, diretores e todo o elenco de base, que fizeram desse drama meu lar. Tudo bem fotografia, AH GRECIA !! ... enfim, tudo foi muito bem feito. Não há como não dar 10 estrelas. E finalmente ost. algo que é tão esperado em um drama, na minha opinião foi 9,3. Quem não assistiu, eu recomendo e muito. Não desista ... e tire suas próprias conclusões

Descendants of the Sun war das beste Drama was ich je geguckt habe! Die Chemie zwischen Song Hye Kyo und Song Joong Ki hat einfach gestimmt! Ich habe bemerkt das Menschen entweder die Serie lieben oder hassen. Eine Menge Menschen meinten die Serie ist langweilig, aber mir hat es Spaß gemacht die Geschichte von Yoo Shi Jin und Kang Mo Yeon zu verfolgen :) Ich musste mehrmals während der Serie weinen, weil sie so unglaublich war... Die Serie ist empfehlenswert!! Genau wie bei Goblin liebe ich das OST von DOTS, besonders Once Again - Kim Na Young&Mad Clown. Die Serie hat ihren erfolg verdient :)

Un drama sans histoire

Ça faisait longtemps, très longtemps que j'avais ce drama en liste d'attente et j'ai décidé enfin de le regarder. J'ai enchaîné tous les épisodes et fini d'une traite : j'ai personnellement moyennement aimé cette série.

Pour moi dans ce drama, il manque un fil rouge une vraie histoire. C'est un peu mélangé j'ai l'impression, les deux premiers épisodes mettent en place les personnages, les présentations et puis se retrouvent tous ensemble à Uruk. Mais le problème c'est que dans les derniers épisodes ils refont une nouvelle intrigue avec le nord-coréen qui était présent au début de la série. Je trouve ça un peu brouillon comme histoire

Les scènes de combat sont très bien, beaucoup d'action et de romance c'est vraiment un duo (action romance) que j'adore. La musique est bien aussi.

Confesso que tinha visto o primeiro ep já a muito tempo, mas não tinha me interessado muito, mas resolvi dá uma chance quando ele começou a passar na tv aberta e cá está minha resenha desta obra:

Foi um dos melhores doramas que assistir. Ele é fácil de ver, te prende com suas histórias, com sua comédia bem dosada e com a química perfeita entre os casais.
O que me surpreende foi a forma como terminou, não foi como os outros doramas que sempre tem o final feliz e um jeito de dizer que tudo se tornou perfeito, nos Descendentes Do Sol, você tem fica com a ideia de que apesar do amor deles ter se "firmado", se tornado algo mais sólido, irá continuar tendo dificuldades... Continuará sendo difícil.
Adorei a amizade valorizada entre o Yoo Shi-Jin e Seo Dae-young, aquela amizade que você inveja, que admira e ama.
O casal secundário está de parabéns também, a química deles se igualava à do casal principal, apesar da personalidade deles sempre completamente diferente e eles serem até mais sérios, mesmo assim, conseguiam arrancar uns bons sorrisos bobos e sempre emocionavam com as dificuldades que tinham que enfrentar, além de terem uma bela história juntos.
Além desses, teve vários outros personagens que me marcaram enquanto assistia, como o Residente de cirurgia Lee, que mostrou seu crescimento profissional na carreira. Também o casal que não tinha como não amar a enfermeira Ha Ja-ae e o Doutor Song Sang-hyun, que eram uns fofos.
Enfim, ótimos personagens, ótima história, envolvente e apaixonante. Adorei cada minuto!

Aconselho muuuuitooo!<3
