Based on Mishima's Spring Snow (春の雪, Haru no Yuki), first volume of his tetralogy "Sea of Fertility". Having read it, the novel starts out promisingly, the historical background is highly interesting, but can pall a bit later, and the ending is problematic. Still, he was a great writer. That's why it's probably a bit over the heads of certain reviewers here.

49 episodes?! he only lived for 30 years

As at ep. 3 the veoh picture quality is sadly very poor. Very charming and "tasteful". Setting is nice. I would not say Shiina Kippei is exactly "very handsome" whatever his other talents. Takizawa Hideaki gives a whole new dimension to the English slang expression "stuffing your face". Can be quite funny, especially the caption "comments" on what's going on inside their heads. As I've watched I really like this series and it has been worthwhile sitting though some very poor filming but ep 8 just ceased half way through. It's such a pity a decent recording does not seem to be available but it's become virtually impossible to watch until last three episodes. Ten out of ten for the series itself and the actors.Very neatly wrapped up. Lovely story. If you like things a bit sentimental, you'll like this.

sounds like Lord of the Flies or Lost, haven't watched yet, is it worth it?

should really have spoiler alert but as that's a nice photo it doesn't really matter:)

that's ok, each to his own opinion…...

Quite good looking, obviously has more stamina making these 20 and 30 episode marathons than I have stamina in watching them to the end

did you mean 5 years or 5 months?

Hi,

There was a problem getting Episode 4, so I had to use elsewhere, you could probably find it on youtube.

I haven't noticed much censorship of violence - in fact violence in Korean thrillers is way over the top imho. If it's that bad and it's been censored, I gulp to think of what the uncensored versions are like. But I'm against any censorship, so I vote there's too much anyway. Free speech (should) rule.

Thanks. I just finished Voice not long ago, so feel a bit saturated with medical dramas but will look at it as you recommend.

That photo doesn't do him any favors, much better looking in goblin

I'm already confused just reading the above summary as to who did what and where and what they do now and who is what to whom, not to mention all these brilliant minds just happening to have film-star good looks, not like any doctors I've come across

I've watched 2 episodes and I have to agree with others that the weak spot in this drama is definitely Kim Go Eun. Her acting range runs the gamut from A to B. She'd be more suited to zany or teen rom roles - both of which I unfortunately dislike. I'll stick it out for the nice interaction among the boys. But as you can't really by-pass poor old Go Eun, this is not one where I feel the urge to immediately watch the next episode.

Very touching, beautiful movie of devotion.

jubies33 very eloquent, like the profile shots too

Interesting………but the majority opinion is not necessarily the best opinion.

That's a plus, he's good

Lost interest, it just seems to be about fighting interrupted by a bit of romance, boring really, don't know if I'll get back to watching, Kim Hyun Joong should stick to singing

Thanks for recommending - I'm really liking it apart from the soppy romance bits
