WOW

Of the 70+ dramas I have watched, "Mr. Sunshine" was one of the BEST!! The story, acting, cinematography, EVERYTHING was absolutely perfect!
I did hear some complaints on how the history was showcased throughout the drama. Some also stated that the drama, Mr. Sunshine, showed a lot of bias. In other words, I guess the storyline showed Korea as the "very good guy" and Japan as the "very bad guy". But, I never really liked learning about history, so I thought that the story was amazing and beautiful!!
In regards to romance, there's no steamy romance with a lot of physical contact, I guess one can say. The hugs, eye contact, smiles, between the Lee Byung-hun and Kim Tae-ri were so sweet and anyone could tell that their characters loved each other. Other than the romance between the mains, the bromance was reallyyyy funny! Yoo Yeon-seok, Lee Byung-hun, and Byun Yo-han showed a lot of comical scenes together that always lightened up the mood. To this day, I still search up these three characters on YouTube just to see the scenes they acted out together ^^
Lastly, the cinematography!! The scenes were ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL. I would like you to go on Safari, YouTube, or Google and search up "Mr. Sunshine Scenes" and click on images. They are very beautiful~~
I guess one small complaint I have is the cast... and I know that multiple people do agree with me and others don't.
------------ Lee Byung-hun was just... too old, I honestly believe that someone younger should've been casted-------------
I too know that other people do not think the same as me and believe that "age doesn't matter". I respect that opinion, but... I'm just sorry, the chemistry between the mains kind of got ruined (just a lil) because of the HUGE age gap (20-years people). But I didn't hate it. The acting from both characters were AWESOMEEEEEE still. I heard that if there really were kiss scenes between Lee Byung-hun and Kim Tae-ri, people would've had an uproar about it ^^
OVERALL, the story PERFECT, the acting AMAZING, the cast ALMOST COMPLETE (I just still wish there was someone at least a lilll younger - Hyun Bin - would've been fine tho) that's why I couldn't give a FULL 10/10, but still... WATCH IT
I ABSOLUTELY recommend to watch this drama! You will NEVER regret it~~
