Descendants of the Sun (2016)

I LOVED IT

After watching the last episode I wished there were more. It gives us a glimpse into military life in Korea and also a bit of the political side. The ML is one of my very favorites and he didn’t disappoint. FL was good but her whiny voice and screaming made me hit the mute button numerous times. Their chemistry is good so that made up for the whiny voice. There were two mainlove stories and the support male and female also had good chemistry. There are a couple of scenes that will make you teary. The scenery in the foreign country is beautiful. Overall it is easy watching and now Inhave to find something comparable which will be difficult. Did not give a ten because of background music which I found grating as well as FL whiny voice.

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.

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.

semua yang ada di drama ini pas banget di aku, sempurna banget . romance nya manis. dari awal mereka ketemu sampai sudah pacaran pun aku masih bisa baper. relate mungkin jadi si fl di awal, mau punya hubungan tapi si ml gabisa beri tahu apa pekerjaannya padahal si fl sudah melihat ml dijemput pribadi naik helikopter. ya aku kalau jadi si cewe juga pasti penasaran banget dan psti gamau berhubungan sama cowo yang gak jelas bagaimana kehidupan pekerjaannya, tetapi aku juga kasian sama bigboss:(
tapi ya kembali lagi, ini tuh drama, ada aja ketidaksengajaannya, definisi jalur langit lah ya. mereka bertemu lagi di negara orang karena tuntutan pekerjaan. (scene bigboss turun helikopter legend bgt).
ya, pasti tau lah yang akan terjadi, they're fallin love, tapi si cewe masih denial sama perasaannya karena ada dua sisi yang bertolak belakang, di satu sisi dia suka tapi di sisi lain dia khawatir sama pekerjaan cowonya yang kemungkinan terburuknya adalah ninggalin dunia tanpa perpisahan yang layak.
tapi akhirnya si fl mau nyoba hubungannya sama si kapten dan ya sesimple itu sebenarnya alur nya. tapi karena ada bumbu pelengkap dan konflik- konflik, seperti anggota-anggota yang kocak, romance dari couple second lead, ngoperasi pejabat, penjualan anak, mencuri narkoba, gempa, ambil ahli berlian sampai virus mematikan, yang membuat drama ini jadi sempurna. seruuu deh pokoknya, degdegannya, komedinya, percintaannya, actionnya, semuanya kerasa banget.
bayangin deh drama dokter berkolaborasi dengan drama tentara khusus, yapasti pecah lah. nah semua kepecahan itu tertuang disini.
dan tidak ketinggalan juga OST dari ni drama, aku eargasm banget. candu deh. OST nya tuh melekat banget di drama ini. bukan hanya 1 atau 2 lagu doang, tapi ada beberapa lagu yang melekat sama beberapa scene. jadi kalau misal mendengarkan salah satu lagunya, pasti langsung bisa bayangin ini scene yang mana. TOP MARKOTOP DEH.

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!

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 film che ho amato e che rivisto mi ha fatto vedere i suoi limiti e abbassare il punteggio

Riguardandolo mi sono accorta che la prima immagine è quella del cielo stellato visto prima nella sua immensità e poi attraverso i fori che i proiettili hanno trapassato il casco di un soldato, sicuramente ucciso ... ecco, questa prima immagine ha in sé una potenza di comunicazione che pervade la serie che sto per riguardare.
Tutto l'universo è per l'essere umano, per il singolo uomo. Tutto è per la felicità del singolo, ma per affermarla bisogna lottare, mettere in gioco la propria vita e i propri talenti in qualsiasi campo si operi.
A differenza della maggior parte dei film occidentali in cui l'uomo deve autocensurare la sua potenza virile, la sua forza e la sua differenza dalla donna, finalmente delle storie d'amore nelle quali la donna, con diverse sfaccettature, è femminile, pronta all'accoglienza e alla cura dell'altro, che sia il proprio innamorato o semplicemente qualcuno che ha bisogno di essere accudito, e l'uomo è forte, generoso, disposto a dare la vita per il bene di coloro che ama e soprattutto a usare la forza contro i prepotenti e nella lotta contro il male.
Nel rewarch ho colto la prolissità e l'inconsistenza di alcuni personaggi che non cito per non spoilerare, sinceramente le scene lunghissime di lacrime e singhiozzi mi fanno premere il pulsante che le supera velocemente ... soprattutto tutti questi bravissimi attori ... ma perché li fate piangere come delle fontane ... ?? Quindi da 10 ho portato a 8,5 il punteggio.
Tolte un po' di scene con frasi da "baci Perugina", nel complesso, storie raccontate bene, con bellissima fotografia, bravissimi attori, grazie ai traduttori.
