Not a story about finding love and the struggle of getting together, but a story about how to make it work to stay together. Also, a military drama disguised as a medical... Nah, this was straight up a romantic comedy with some sprinkles of action and suspense. Nonetheless extremely engaging and entertaining. A must watch!

It's more than the love story of every couple in the show but it's also about friends and humanity. I loved it.

not worth the hype
Dots is one of those dramas where you either love it or hate it, and it’s rare to have an in between. For me, it was the latter unfortunately.Although I only watched seven episodes, the plot just didn’t interest me. I usually give dramas 3 episodes max and if it doesn’t interest me, I will drop it. However, due to the hype, I tried to carry it on.
I’m not alone in saying that the mix of genres (rom-com, medical, military) makes it harder to enjoy. There’s not as much development.
From the get go, there was romance initiated, and thus angst. I enjoyed it but it did feel a bit rushed unlike the typical kdrama - which i don’t mind but only if it’s done well. What usually takes 8 or so episodes happened within two episodes.
Side characters were meh which I think is partly the reason i dropped it. Their storyline could’ve acted as a main plot alone and personally I love when the side characters add a bit of comedy and happiness when the main characters are not doing so well.
Nevertheless, I think you have to give Dots a try. It’s one of the most known kdramas and many people will ask for your opinion on it😅

it is only good on the part of the war, but overall worth 5 by stalling and talking and 7 by the action of fights
Descendants of the Sun me decepcionou pelas nota que tem, não vale tudo aquilo
ele só é bom nas parte da guerra, mas no geral vale 5 pela enrolação e falação e 7 pela ação das luta

Soo annoying
This is the first Korean drama I felt like Chinese drama. Shameless ML, brainless plots, repeating scenes etc… More than 4 times he got rejected by FM still shamelessly repeating the same and keeps on following her wherever she is and thinking of her all the time even during rescue missions, military base or in the meeting. I think this drama degrading the mentality of the Korean army. The disappointing thing is, ML is the commander of the special force but become shameless without any bottom line after meeting FL. In the initial episodes he always used to tell rules, orders blah blah blah but for her he forgot all rules orders everything. Most annoying is even in the military base he keeps on searching, following confessing her but got rejected repeatedly. Even the commander has no self respect is very shameful character.Was this review helpful to you?

no chemistry
Second Couple Carried The Show For Me*No chemistry between the main leads for me. I just saw edits of their confession scene and started watching this. Except for those scenes, there is nothing special in this drama.
They fall in love too fast, so there was no proper build-up and I couldn't feel the chemistry. The female lead is so annoying to watch at times, yes. She keeps saying one thing and doing another, which gets frustrating.
But the second couple totally saved the show. Seo Dae-young and Yoon Myeong-joo - she is so cute to watch. No annoying attitude, calm, mature, and she knows how to handle the situation and stand up for her love. Their love story is actually more painful and cute to watch than the main one.
Their bromance between Yoo Si-jin and Seo Dae-young is good, their loyalty and friendship is nice to see, but the overall story is not so much interesting beyond that.
For me it's not a very interesting or recommending show. The cinematography, OST, and action scenes are great, and Song Joong-ki is charming, but I watched it only for the edits and stayed for the second couple.

I am in love
I really loved this show. The romance between the two couples is so fascinating. And the story…I’ve never had fantasy about the uniform, but this show changed this a lot.The spoken English was not so bad that I expected. Some character had very good accent and this added a little bit to the story as well.
Honestly, I am in love in the main character romance and this love is something good to see.
Funny, with sweet romance and really exciting because of the military storyline.

nothing because it’s perfect
It's incredibly beautiful, with all its events and everything else. The beginning is perfect, and there's not a single dull moment. The way the characters meet and fall in love is something I can't get over. I've watched it multiple times. At first, I finished it in one day because of its beauty, the beauty of the story, and the acting. I'm not exaggerating at all. What I loved most was the love between the secondary characters; I can't get over it. The chemistry between the secondary and main characters is incredible. I can't believe the director made such a great choice.Was this review helpful to you?
He Descended Like the Sun
After watching the first episode I am already hooked completely primarily because of the ML Soong Jun Ki who is so handsome and epitome of Asian manhood. He got a killer smile and he played his role as if it is his second skin. This love story between a soldier and a lady doctor has become popular ever since and there are so many versions already but this drama still stands out as a gem of its kind.The love story is so romantic and so touching. The acting are superb and the chemistry between the major leads are very palpable. It is also nice that the common illogical presence of mistress or evil mother in law are not present in this drama. The tension is focused on the relationship of the leads and their call for duty.
I highly recommend this drama.
