Ark Peace!!! Navy Military hospital ship 866..
I have completed till 30 episodes.. Waiting for the subtitles for the last two episodes. First of all its a semi documentary based on the concept of the hospital ship called Daishan Dao also known as Peace Ark .I love the 4 following characters a lot than the others : Wang ming, Dr. Zhang, Dr. Lu yang and Ye Nan,,,,,
Every can notice that Dr. Sun is every partial and give each and every oppurtunity to his favorite Dr. Zhang though he is a very talented doctor, its far from reality that how a doctor can do all kinda surgeries?? He does Ortho surgery, Surgical gastroenterology, he even acted as a co-surgeon for the opthalmology surgery... Can a single surgeon do all kinda surgeries???? Other than that Dr. Zhang's acting was good.. I love him...
Dr. Lu Yang is the next talented one next to Dr.Zhang.. At first i thought that Dr. Zhang and Dr. Lu is gonna be a couple since they spend almost every minute for theirs spent together.. Her handsome boyfriend and she got separated and Dr. Zhang's wife losing her memory and her health is worsening due to untreated hydrocephalus (i thought she's gonna die and our leads gonna fell in love but it dint happen till now... lol)...
And next there is our mechanic Wang Ming, who shows empathy towards others even though he can't understand english. He tried his best to be useful to the patients as well and showered his moral supports... Its clear that he was worried about Dr. Lu and developed feelings for her... Wang ming is such a sweet innocent person..
Ye Nan, my favourite action hero.. Till episode 28 i never knew that he can fight so good... I fell for him more than the ML during the episodes 28-30.. He did his best to protect the team.. Lemme tell you i love action-romance genre.. There isnt enough romance in this series let alone action,,, It has only couple of action sequence... One takes place in first few episode and the next takes place at the last... Ye nan did his best in the second action sequence.. It made him looked like he was in his 20s so much of stamina and strength.. Damn!!!...
[My Reviews after completing the last two episodes]
Its kinda heart wrenching when people leave their passion behind... Dr. Zhang reports to his wife, Damn!! Did she forgot him too?? And there is our lil mechanic, Wang ming asked Dr. Lu out for dinner. I thought he is gonna propose but he hid it (shy guy)... The series ended with Dr. Lu and Dr. Zhang set the sail again together in ark peace..
It has few loose ends but it's a great series that depicts the Chinese Navy military doctors and the ship.. It showed that everyone who works on the ships are equally important. I miss the romance and action but i don't regret watching this series...
Nice one to watch...
P.S : If there is a season 2, Please add some romance between the Main leads and lil more action ....

Two different dramas
The first three episodes are great, filled with action, drama, tension, etc. They are like a self-contained action movie. But with episode four, it becomes a very pedestrian military medical drama, more like a second-rate documentary on the Ark Peace hospital ship and its mission. From episode four on, Chen Kun is wasted in this drama. The early episodes hinted at his traumatic past in the military, but now those hints have disappeared. Unless this series gets exciting or interesting soon, I’m moving on and this one will join the list of mediocre Chinese series that I started, but gave up on this year.Was this review helpful to you?
