I absolutely love your review! Thank you for helping me see this drama from a reader’s perspective—how the story should have unfolded. Now I finally understand why I struggled to like Song Ran, especially in the beginning—her character was poorly written.
I have mixed feelings about the romance, and your review clarified why. Apart from the painfully slow pacing, almost crawling, with minimal dialogue and an excess of lingering stares and waiting, it is the poor development of the romance.
Although I don’t usually watch war-themed dramas, I found this story deeply relatable to real-world events, which helped me overlook the script’s flaws and focus on the bigger picture, hence my super high rating.
Thank you again for such a thoughtful and insightful review!
Is the rating this low because the story isn't great or because of the bad subs?
The rating is low because only 20 people have rated. I've started watching this and it's pretty good. Many people are complaining about the subs, so I guess that's why there are so few people watching it.
I am only watching GOTD currently but i heard this is doing great in China. Can someone give me review without…
To my surprise, this drama is very good. There's a lot of struggle but the storyline is very good. I used to be a fan of Yang Zi and Li Xian (Go Go Squid). However, I don't like them as much as I did before. Nonetheless, I like the storyline thus far.
