Not for anyone but definitely one of the best dramas of the year

First, D.P. is definitely not an easy drama to digest. For those who like happy endings or things well resolved in the end, D.P. will not be interesting. I believe that this show wanted to portray a more grotesque side of a reality where things will not always work out and it will take time for things to be resolved. Having said that, I really liked the plot of this drama. For me it was so interesting, different and well made. I especially liked how they showed a negative side of the SK army that although I can't say that all the things mentioned in this drama happens in real life, I honestly don't doubt that at least some are real. And was interesting as well especially because us, as viewers who are consuming content from korean artists, constantly see the SK army being put as something awesome and here we saw a different portray than usual so it was really interesting.

The cinematography was amazing and I enjoyed the OST as well. The actors was *chef kiss* AMAZING. All of them did an amazing job in their roles. The main characters had chemistry and completed each other. And the actor who was the “nerd” from the army was seriously amazing. I am extremely happy that Hae In agreed to be part of this drama because I was tired of seeing people saying that he was only a “melo/romance actor” and I think after that, he showed his good skills in acting and how he can act in different roles. I just wish they had at least closed the story about Joon Ho because I feel that the relationship with his mother was too important to be forgotten in the story especially him being the ML.

D.P. is an amazing drama which brings up sensitive issues and a different perspective of the SK army that we are not used to see. With captivating characters and an impeccable direction scene, we dive headfirst into this story and are entertained at every moment. The ending of Joon Ho maybe becoming a deserter or just showing that he's going to rebel against the army was perfect. As well as the scene of the other soldier shooting at others to show that "something needed to be done", because yes, there comes a time when they start to think that they can no longer count on anyone but themselves.

I really hope there is a sequel to at least tie up some things that were left open, but I’ll understand If this is the really end because as i said above, in reality, things are not resolved easily and many end up not really being. Recommend this 100%!
