8.5/10 is my rating. This 2016 South Korean drama spanned 16 episodes (~60 minutes/episode). This south Korean drama's male lead Yoo Si-jin (played by Son Joong-ki) and female lead Dr. Kang Mo-Yeon (played by Song Joong-ki) seemed destined to be together as random events cause multiple meetings. Dr. Kang cannot envision herself, who saves lives, coupled with a special forces soldier, Yoo Si-jin who takes them. After spurning his initial advances and ending a relationship before it even started, destiny has it that she takes a medical assignment in the same place where Yoo Si-jin is stationed. You wonder if Dr. Kang can continue to deny the feelings she so obviously has for Yoo Si-jin or will circumstances drive them apart. Is love worth the chance of loss?

Spoiler ? In terms of sexy male roles a tougher than nails special forces shoulder would have to top the list. As both fight battles on the field and in the operating room it becomes apparent that the two very seemingly different occupations have far more similarities than one would expect. I do not prefer war dramas but this one rated high enough I decided to give it a chance. This was good and ended well. I was a bit worried about whether it would end sad but it changed toward the end. It is a very serious, heavy movie as the topics are deep especially for those that were in the military or close relatives of those that were. As a war veteran's wife I found my self in tears multiple times and it brought back memories of those same feelings of worry and dread. It was a very good movie and I would rate it toward the top but if you are not in the best of moods or easily become saddened - you might want to pass.
