Cine TV Contest #27 : Descendants of the Sun

Hello everyone, welcome to my blog.

Here is my entry to Cine TV contest #27 - favorite medical drama.

I love watching drama that revolves round a particular profession, it gives me the opportunity to learn more and appreciate the profession. Though some movies can exaggerate a lot, making it look like a different thing.
Having little knowledge on medical line, I can easily evaluate medical movies.

My favorite medical drama is "Descendants of the Sun", it is a Korean drama I enjoyed watching.
It has 16 episodes, each episode is very interesting making you wanting to know what happens next.
The movie is all about a humble Captain Yoo Shi Jin, who is in Korean Special Forces.
And Doctor Kang Mo Yeon, who is a surgeon at Haesung Hospital.
The two main actors were so good in their jobs, I mean they were perfect.
Captain Yoo Shi Jin is a good captain, always doing his best for his team and country.
While Doctor Kang Mo Yeon is a talented doctor, always doing her best in saving lives.
Though she fails to become a professor due to a colleague's privileged background.

Movie Summary

Captain Yoo Shi Jin and his friend Sergeant Major Dae-Young caught a thief, and ended up in a hospital when the thief injured himself.
He met Doctor Kang Mo Yeon for the first time, in a hospital and falls in love with her immediately.
He left Doctor Kang Mo Yeon in the hospital rooftop promising to met her again.
Doctor Kang Mo Yeon didn't believe he is a Captain until he entered the special forces helicopter.
Doctor Kang Mo Yeon was surprised on how she suddenly miss someone she just meet.

They met again and together they face danger in a war-torn country, where Doctor Kang Mo Yeon and her team worked as volunteer in assisting soldiers on a peacekeeping mission in the country of Uruk.

What I love about the movie.

I love how the doctors risked there lives to save people in war zones. Even when they lacked equipment, they were still able to sustain life for sometime before proper medical care.
And, yes proper medical care. That's another thing I loved about the drama, they didn't show us that the patient recovered immediately without proper medical care.
They didn't show that all of the patients they came in contact with survived, some died as well.
They also showed proper medical approach for example there is a scene that a two man was badly injured, to save one the other was at risk of dieing.
They didn't just give up on the man. They tried to save the man, encouraging and giving him hope.
The man realized the pain he was going through, and the situation of the problem. He told them to save his colleague and leave him to face his fate.

Another scene I love in the movie is when Dr Kang Mo Yeon saved the Arab President.
She wasn't his doctor but wanted to do her best as a doctor, the Arab President men pointed gun on her as she performed the surgery.
She was so brave, knowing fully well that she will be killed if the Arab President dies. She said she preferred trying risking her life to be shoot, than watching the Arab President die without doing anything.

This movie has a lot, I recommend you to watch it. You won't regret it.
