[twtwb]

Song Joong Ki Shows His Affection for Lee Kwang Soo on the Set Of “Descendants of the Sun”

On March 3, NEW, the production company for KBS‘s Wednesday-Thursday drama, “Descendants of the Sun,” posted a series of pictures on their Facebook, along with the caption, “Captain Yoo, are you thinking about someone right now besides Doctor Mo Yeon?

In the photos, Song Joong Ki is writing on one of the rocks with a permanent marker, with a serious expression on his face. When taking a closer look, he writes, “Joong Ki♥Kwang Soo (Asia Prince),” expressing his affection for his best friend Lee Kwang Soo.

This particular location is called Navagio Beach (also known as Shipwreck Island), and it’s a small cove off the shore of Zakynthos Island in Greece. The scene might look familiar to everyone who’s seen episode 3.

Song Joong Ki is currently starring as Captain Yoo Si Jin in “Descendants of the Sun,” along with Song Hye Kyo. “Descendants of the Sun” airs every Wednesday and Thursday on KBS2.

One of the things I am liking about this drama so far is the conversations between the OTPs. I am so drawn to their conversations. They can go from witty and funny to deep and serious. And how the actors executed those scenes, delivered their lines just give them so much justice. It is really a joy to watch. And it does help that these two OTPs are both so gorgeous and beautiful!

Netizens comments part 2! They are so entertaining to read LOL 

Song Joong Ki captures women's hearts with "Descendants of the Sun"

[+4432 -96] I can't believe how happy this drama makes me feel.

[+3520 -181] Goowon couple makes me feel so sad. Please give them more screen time.

[+3131 -79] I've become a wreck because of Song Jong Ki T T

[+2195 -148] I've fallen in love with the Goowon couple.

[+583 -17] Song Joong Ki has become more manly compared to Kang Maru. How can I wait until next week T T

[+583 -18] The writer understands women too well...

[+537 -19] Please broadcast for a full hour instead of giving us only ten minutes

[+501 -15] Complete with visuals, acting, and voice.

[+493 -24] Because of Song Jong Ki, I can't concentrate on anything. The only thing I can focus on is Song Joong Ki.

[+538 -43] Descendants of the Sun and Come Back Mister... I thought it would be a clash between Song Hye Kyo and Rain. It turned out to be a clash between Song Joong Ki and Rain instead. Song Joong Ki won.

[+447 -14] You were going to drink wine. Instead, you're drinking lips? Making my heart race... (wine is pronounced the same as lips in Korean)

[+400 -16] Song Joong Ki's side gaze struck my heart...Haven't been able to sleep for 2 days.

[+381 -13] The perfect allure of uniform...

[+358 -19] How can there be such a handsome man. Song Joong Ki's too handsome. Totally in for this drama.

[+320 -14] How can his voice and acting be so good at the same time?

[+336 -13] Goowon couple. Song Hye Kyo. I like all the different couples very much.

[+286 -15] Looking forward to next week's surprise kiss.

[+249 -13] I'm envious of the kiss...

[+220 -6] Jin Goo too. I love the parts with Song Joong Ki and Jin Goo

[+197 -8] Why does he look like a boy at 32. I would believe it if you say he's only 20.

[+200 -12] Ha...We'll have to wait another week. I wish time could pass more quickly.

 [+166 -5] In real life Song Joong Ki also graduated from Sungkyunkwan. In the army he also had a post in the Invetigation Corps stationed at the front. His roles are very much similar to his real life...He has a nice personality, is a pure and intelligent person...also has a strong sense of responsibility and justice...Pale skin and muscles...Is there anything he doesn't have?

[+175 -9] Song Joong Ki's handsome looks and manly acting completely captured women's hearts.

[+167 -9] This is a drama that will go down in history. From the very first episode the main leads are mesmerized by each other. I thought they wouldn't break up...turned out to be a trap.

[+166 -9] The dead acting (in dramas) has been reborn.

[+168 -12] Song Joong Ki is wonderful. Song Hye Kyo too. Both of them are too pretty!

[+144 -8] Song Joong Ki was so cool when he kissed her. Why did it last for only 2 seconds?

[+138 -3] Watching for the Song Song couple. How could they act so well as a couple? The two of them look like a real couple.

[+137 -7] Daebak...soldiers...no...how come I didn't know Song Joong Ki was this handsome?

[+152 -13] Song Hye Kyo has wonderful acting skills. And Song Joong Ki...no wonder it's so romantic.

[+136 -8] I knew he was a good man...but I didn't know it was at this level.

[+139 -10] Writer Kim has done an impressive job. The actors' acting, lines, and chemistry blend well together.

[+130 -9] I can't control my heart anymore...No need to say more! Ahhhh

I'm so glad I'm not the only one obsessed over this drama LOL...I even woke up at 5 a.m to watch the recap...happy I'm not the only crazy one. Off to rewatch the 4th episode 

P.S. The hashtag #Descendants of the Sun has reached 1.5 billion views on weibo and stayed in the first place in the "Top 10 Hot Topics" for 10 consecutive hours! This drama is going to become a legend! 

@Tinkiebell You're very welcome! I translated the Chinese translations I found on the Chinese forum of DoTS...they are really fast at translating Korean! 

[j4bibi]

Just like when every times holding a bottle of Coke, it reminds me of the famous Kang Ji-Hwan & Yoon Eun-Hye's Cola Kiss in Lie to Me. 

But from now on, a bottle of Red Wine will not be the same anymore when I'm holding it ... I can think of different ways to drink  ....***cough** from someone's lips **cough***   

Thanks Song Joong-Ki & Song Hye-Kyo you are now the renounced Red Wine Kiss's couple.

[andy78]

Song Joong Ki Captivates our Hearts ...his character is courageous ,handsome and so romantic ...i can't wait to watch ep 5!I hope MY won't slapp him for his unexpected kiss!

no wonder SJ said i know where to drink wine....on MY lips.

[utkim]

Btw, i suddenly remmeber that Dots team started their shooting from ep 8 or 9 in Korea....i assume that they will be back in Korea from ep 9, perhaps? cos i think i have read here that the filmed a lot in the mountain etc...so my suggestion is that there will be more to come, i think so.

More drama are coming.

SJ:  There's nothing for me to gain by taking you there.
MY: Why do you always look for a way to gain something?

SJ: The work I do is disadvantageous for our relationship.

 

SJ acknowledge to MY how he has the lower hand in the relationship; no wonder why he has to work extra hard to win over MY. Even though she likes him, she is really hard to pursue; too bad, she is the only one who captures his heart.

Poor guy, he really wants the relationship to work. MY surely gives soldiers like him extra headaches.

I like how he sees through her, that despites being a practial person who cares about money and career, deep down she is dedicated doctor with a kind heart.

Knetz comments are so much fun to read. they're going crazy over DOTS just like all of us here.. hahaha!  

 

[+400 -16] Song Joong Ki's size gaze struck my heart...Haven't been able to sleep for 2 days.

this. hahaha.. oh dear you're not alone! especially the way he look at MY before the kiss. it really haunt me in my sleep.. i'm so crazy over SJ awesomeness aka SJK..  awww~ i wish i have my very own SJ~ he's so charming!

[IrisFM]

CRTO

KMY: You look good in your dress uniform.
YSJ: How do you know it's a dress uniform?
KMY: Why wouldn't I? Girls fantasise about uniforms.

 

ME: AWE KMY, you're just like us...kkkkkkk

[crixa]

Just finished watching episode 4 and I'm bawling my eyes out. I have no tears left in me, I might suffer from dehydration.  I was really moved by Kang Mo Yeon, I cried when she cried. I also felt bad with what happen to YSJ. After crying from their scenes, I cried again with DY and MJ airport scene. This drama is giving me loads of heartaches.  I died from heartbreak, good thing the kissing scene at the end resuscitated me and I'm recuperating while waiting for next week.  This drama is giving me life!!! 

[kristy86]

Oh god, where do I start? Been away for 2 days and now I have to catch up 50 pages  How am I going to do that? Hahaha, DotS troopers is the best! My paperloads, emails, and reports are pilling up yet here I am, I have to write something so I can focus back to my work. LOL. Well, maybe it's going to be quite long, and I apologize for that.

First thing first, the rating, Dots ep 3 got 25% ??????????????????? Really????????????? It's only ep 3 and already that high, I hope it will maintain the rating and or if possible get higher and higher, no dropping please... I haven't back read the pages and don't want to open other sources bcos of possible spoilers  

I just watched ep 3 last night at 1 AM, haha and after I finished it I can't sleep thinking what's going to happen next, and have to wake up at 4 AM, now I am having panda eyes, I blame SJ and MY   .

There are so many funny moments, first is the welcoming party from the soldiers, it cracked me up how they only give the flowers to the female team member, the male medical team were lowering their head to receive the flowers, yet they just skipped them like they are not existed, LOL. And then MY staring at the shirtless soldiers, that scene is a treasure, SHK act this scene so well I can't stop laughing, she glare at SJ for blocking her view is just too funny  The boat scene, I feel like I am watching a movie, SJ looks so cool driving the boat, the scenery, can't describe it, beautiful. And many more I can't mention all of them, I can't decide which is the best ep for me. It's getting better and better by each episode. 

As for the chemistry, SJK and SHK is one of the best I've ever seen. Everytime they appear on my screen I will be giggling like a school girl. And don't know why everytime SJ lowering his eyes to meet MY's eyes, I always thot he would kiss her.

I haven't watched ep 4, will save it for tonight  

Sorry for the long post, back to work now, I can't focus, keep thinking of ep 4. Dots Troopers fighting!
