태양의 후예

I finally decided to watch this drama, and it has become quite addictive. I'm already up to date as I had a marathon the other day. I only have the remaining 3 SPs.
The ending was pretty bad, sorry but what kind of crap was that?? So much excitement until the end then that!? Well well..will see what happens.
For some reasons, I'm a bit disappointed with Song Hye Kyo's acting, I used to like her a lot but there have been way too many scenes where I'd call her acting extremely poor.
Song Joong Gi's English is almost incomprehensible, I'm sorry but I have to read the Korean subs to understand it. Also there were a few times when it got messed up, A speaking English and B Korean, at first they did not understand each other suddenly they had a conversation completely matching each other.

As for the 3 SP episodes left I think I won't be able to see the extras until I return from Asia.

In the emergency room, Si-jin meets Dr. Kang Mo-yeon (Song Hye-kyo) for the first time. He falls in love with her immediately. Mo-yeon mistakenly assumes Si-jin is part of thief's criminal gang. He proves to her that he is a soldier with the help of army doctor Yoon Myeong-joo (Kim Ji-won).

Si-jin and Mo-yeon begin to date, but due to their jobs, their dates don't go well. Si-jin takes an order to lead his soldiers on a peacekeeping mission to the fictional country of Uruk. Meanwhile, Mo-yeon becomes upset that she fails to become a professor due to a colleague's privileged background. When Si-jin and Mo-yeon meet again, they talk about their views on life and realise how different they are. Si-jin, as a soldier, kills to protect lives and Mo-yeon, as a doctor, tries to save all lives. They say their goodbyes.

Eight months later, Mo-yeon rebuffs the sexual advances of hospital chairman Han Suk-won (Tae In-ho) and as a result is assigned to lead a medical team in Uruk. There, Si-jin and Mo-yeon meet again and fall in love again.
