Descendants of the Sun is unique in its storyline

This drama has a combination of amazing music, fabulous scenaries, great cast, each and everyone of the characters are built in great detail, both main couples have an extraordinary chemistry, there is constant action, is not boring, has rommance and comedy, but I think the storyline is the most important of all. Setting the controvery bewteen the different missions of doctors and the miltary, by saving lives or killing to protect people, opens up the different perspectives the characters have to face, learn and then accept that is what happens in real life.

Furthermore, the drama brings up moral values, patriotism, love for the country, love for their professions, fulfilling duties, honorable actions, all of that so devaluated these days.

There are two scenes worth mentioned, whe they are standing facing the flag every morning and the honor to those hurt in the earthquake. The main character said he always protects "the beautiful women, the elderly and the children." There was no one moment I didn't enjoy this drama. The part of the "speakers on" were everyone heard her message is hilarious. Also worth mention is the Private Kim Ki Bum character, it starts as a supporting cast but for me he became part of the main cast, that relevant was his performance.

I have watch Asian dramas for many years now, and I can say this is at the top of my favorite Korean dramas.
