SHG looks gorgeous as ever and though i'm super excited for Joongki's drama comeback - he was sorely missed in those two years! - but this drama does not seem to pique my interest. Hopefully it's good since he has generally picked good projects in the past.

Now here's to hoping that Song Joong Ki goes on RM with some of his costars of this drama. Better yet, SJK returns as a regular.

"Why do I have the feeling that the setting will be Saving Private Ryan but the story will be Secret Garden?"
I immediately thought Tom Hanks as Kim Joo Won. Okay. That's weird.
Anyway, I share the confusion as why do they make this in a fictional country? Why not a period drama set in 1950s or a fictional war in the future Korea?
It sounds like a blockbuster, and it will be one if it's done right. I mean, you know how KES' dramas were..... and I did not really like the directing of Secret (despite the good acting and storyline). Just hope for the best.

I swear age isn't a problem here because Song Hye Kyo looks really young, I would even believe if told she's younger than SJK! Weird.

Looking forward because of the casts, not because of the writer. And good luck for war-disaster zone! I just hope even if it's fictional they make it believable.

Wow, everyone looks really great! I'm looking forward to this mainly for the cast, but the plot sounds not too bad I guess. We'll see how it goes. I hope it turns out well though, and even becomes successful, if only for pre-productions to be the trend and eventually become the norm.

Despite my love for Song Joong Ki and my happiness at seeing him back to work, I cannot motivate myself to be remotely interested in watching this. (sigh)

Kwang Soo & Jo In Sung & Joong Ki are right now on vacation in Thailand

I like the casting, but I hope the drama will be good!

Looking forward to it! Not just for SJK but also the story. I've worked with people who lived through war and conflict and I'm curious to see how they show that and what the fictional country will be like.

I really like Song Joong Ki but I only wish that they swap out Song Joong Ki for Jo In Sung. Now that was a couple oozing with chemistry and gorgeous perfection! I wonder if Jo In Sung feels sad his best friend will be romancing the girl he used to have a crush on. Kekekeke.

makes sense that they created a fictional conflict as their main audience is china (hence why shk is there even though she's vastly unpopular w/ k-netz right now. not only for the tax scandal but that she just carries on while jgs was cut from three meals and has been keeping low). you can't write a story about a conflict zone and peacekeepers w/o going into the politics but you also don't want to piss off your country, your allies or your business partners in china, so they're keeping it safe with the fictional setting.

I don't know abt you all, but this make up disaster zone, love and chaos thing sounds like recipe for disaster. Add the writer into the mix, ewww it's wierd she has had hits dramas but I had serious problems with most of them.
Keeping fingers crossed

SJK and Onew ?❤

Everytime Kim Eunsook has new drama, the early description always sounds decent and rich and extravagant and all. Then we get to watch 1-2 first episode(s) and we feel 'oh, that's cute and light opening' and the conflicts look promising. But then... that's all we get. The rest episodes look like mere filler, lame plot, ridiculous noble idiocy etc etc.
I hope this one will be different since I want to watch Kim Jiwon shines more through this drama.

I love the cast so I'm hoping for their sake that this goes well. And ugh, SJK and SHK both look so good as separate individuals so having them both together on screen to stare at would not be something I'd complain about. I just hope they'll have convincing chemistry. So far, from the photos, it looks like it won't be that much of a problem.

I'll be rooting for Kim Ji won ^^

Look at all those smiles! :D I'm so glad Song Joong-ki is back, but not feeling too optimistic about this particular drama.

Ohhhh boyyyyy, shk sooo geourgeus as always, she look the same even more yonger since endless love fiftheen years ago. I cant believe!!
Cant wait for dots!

A contemporary war story set in a fictional, and perhaps non-descript country...Sounds like a recipe for endless groans and countless eye-rolls. I think I'll read the recaps of the first few episodes before committing to watching this one.

Yeay! Nice guy is back! Cant wait! ^^

I thought it is a comedy for a second...all look so happy reading the script!
I can the chemistry between the lead already!
I am so excited for Song Hye Gyo! She looks fabulous! How old was she again?! She looks 18 in the photo.
I wasn't so excited about Song Joong Ki earlier because I always saw him as a pretty face though he was very good in "A werewolf boy". I would have loved to see more seasoned and better actor for Song Hye Gyo but seeing the photos above, I am already rooting for them because I can clearly see a chemistry there and it is always nice to watch a drama where the leads actually have something going on...
Can't wait! :)

Korean dramas, many..many but none of Korean actress could be like Song Hye Kyo:
-beautiful at any corner of shooting, right...straight...front
-naturally acting
-best comedy skill
-attractive
-so much chemistry with any partner
-watching Song Hye Kyo's dramas, movies again and again but no wasting time!

Not liking Heirs, dropped at middle of episode 2 because of the lead actress Park Shin Hye's acting and not attractive actress then failed in romantic scenes(not Heirs but in all dramas)
Same writer Kim Eun Sook but will 'stick' with screen from A-Z because trust the casts from Descendant Of The Sun. All of them are good acting!

It seems still having so much 'haters'...because ...jealous about TOP actress Song Hye Kyo! And because she is so good actress!
Watching all her dramas and movies, she's desever to be respected..because she is a real talent Korea actress.
Song Hye Kyo &Song Joong Ki will bring to the viewers many suprises in Descendant Of The Sun!
Song Hye Kyo 's good actress since she's young actress
Could not wait drama Descendant Of The Sun! And will watching it again and again like
All In
Full House
Autumn In My Heart
That Winter the Wind Blow
My Brilliant Life
............no wasting time!
Best Wish, Descendant Of The Sun!

Oppa ?

Best wish, Descendant Of The Sun!'
2015, having many good dramas with top actors&actress who acting good, beautiful, chemistry......
But many hope from Descendant Of The Sun:
-good acting(supporting casts, included)
-chemistry between screen couples(all, not from LEAD only)
-storyline, very interesting, not SAME, Korean writers who 'stepping' on other writers' ideas......so much!
-both SHK and SJK, in TOP 10 Actors/Actress list, from INSIDER INDUSTRY(Proffesional's voting). Song Jong Ki has acting career in 5 years(less?)
-in acting for DOTS, good for lead actor SJK and SHK who knowing each other already(Laneige, same best friends from celebrities.....).
