The first episode was impressive -- the director was able to cover a large time frame and maintain the continuity of the story. That episode set the stage for the drama. Now, mind you, they are actors and adults, the couples' age gap should not deter your judgement of watching a spectacular drama. The actors/actresses were all amazing, I mean you can just really feel the sadness, the distress, the sorrow and then the sweetness (that does not go overboard to childishness), the happiness, the camaraderie...
Add to this, this was a great comeback of Gong Yoo to drama land and when he had his sad moments in teh drama you just want to tell him to not be sad because his face just makes you "aawww, don't be sad...".

It is not the best drama out there but it did keep me on my toes. The twist in the plot was very surprising. However, the music became so tiresome because they used the same music at almost every episode if I am not mistaken. The lead actor, Kim Jae Won's nose really bothered me -- it looks like Michael Jackson and does not look natural at all or proportioned to his face (but with a country that plastic surgery is just like going to a mall, I guess some people found it cute?!?). I know, it is lame, I almost couldn't finish it because of that. Other than that, I read that some people actually found him "cute" so I guess it is just me...

It was quirky but not like watching fools - I have seen dramas where they were goofy and trying to be funny but the humor was not to my liking (like Birth of a Beauty). Also, I was enjoying it and then I read the comments/reviews... kinda killed my love for it. You know, like if I should continue watching it or not. Well I did, it was still fun to watch - it is not a total loss, it lost its momentum but I have seen worst dramas. But the comedy in one scene when he was pretending to sleep so that somebody can tuck him in - I was laughing so much. The lead actor really looked goofy compared to the other dramas he has made - it was weird seeing him that way but he did the character justice. The sister, oh I hated her for her manipulativeness (you have to hate somebody in the drama, right?) The second leading man, what a waste (I mean he was nice too and almost felt sorry for him, I wish he would get nice girl too.) -- he had his own charming personality.

A little bit of romance, comedy, military, hospital, bromance and drama. Some people did not like it but for me it entertained me allot. I like how they don't show the cliff hanger on the end of an episode but instead surprises you in the next episode. Of course, there are some scenes that are blah but it wasn't whole lot.
The second lead romance, you'd think was repetitive, but if you think about how a "soldier's honor" is... it does put allot of weight on the "right decision" and the angst of relationship.

The 16 episodes is just right and I am glad they did continue the story after the volunteering because it wasn't a long term deal so life has to go on.

Plus factor is that Song Joong Ki, is just eye candy and he looked really cool in his army uniform and doing all those action stuff (kinda like Healer).
