News I'm glad it wasn't among my first dramas, because I don't think I would have watched any of them and I would have missed other wonderful stories.
I really liked the connection of the second couple. their relationship is more meaningful than main leads had.
I liked the bromance and comedy between doctors/comrades.
I really liked ML, the actor and the character that he played.
But I continued with a lump in my throat because I couldn't stand the FL character. This actress, apart from being beautiful, didn't convey anything to me, she's dull, she doesn't have expressions, it's quite rigid, stiff. For me she is playing the same in any dramas. Is not at all my cup of tea. Her character is mean, she's acting like she owns and knows everything. I did not like at all how she treats ML, she disempower him, she plays with him, like she is in high school. She is emotionally immature, a bitch.
The OST is great.
I just continue watching for Song Joong Ki and the second couple. But It was my first when I fast foreword the moment with the FL. ups.
I cant feel to recommend this one. Sorry.

Would be better without the romance
I liked everybody in the cast except the FL Song Hye Kyo, I have watched several shows with her and just don't get the appeal. Her acting is flat and stiff and she never seems comfortable with any ML. (Which is especially weird considering she ended up marrying Song Joong Ki for a short bit. ) I never find myself empathizing with her characters, including her character in this series. I did not find it believable based on her behavior that the ML would try so hard to win her over, again and again.The show would have been better off just focusing on the adventures of Yoo Shi-jin and Seo Dae-young and the medical team in Urk and leaving the main two romances out. As it is, I lost interest after the 239th break up of the ML and FL. The secondary couple was terrible. The secondary female lead was so selfish and immature in her decision making and so persistent that it just seemed as if Seo dated her just to shut her up. I never felt there was a chemistry between them no matter how many tears they forced out. Maybe the actor was just not good with romantic scenes?
Some positive notes, I loved how cheezy the American soldiers were, it made me laugh at how bad their acting is. I liked the fighting and action scenes. Watching shirtless soldiers jogging in formation is my new favorite pastime.

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.
