Is this a Christmas present from KBS? If so thank you KBS Santa! I will not look a gift horse in the mouth, especially when it comes to my most anticipated K-drama of 2016. The first teaser preview is out for high profile Kim Eun Sook written drama Descendants of the Sun. Starring Song Hye Kyo and Song Joong Ki, the drama is fully pre-filmed and has a majority of scenes shot on location in Greece as a stand in for a fictional Eastern European country dealing with civil strife and natural disaster.
Song Joong Ki is the commander of a UN peacekeeping force situated there while Song Hye Kyo is a doctor with a Doctor’s Without Borders type agency. One would think no one would have time for romance with so much going on, but clearly there is going to be a plethora of romance with how many charismatic and good looking actors and actresses are packed into this drama. And the first teaser sets the tone with nothing but potential romance, and in a very Kim Eun Sook way as the male lead played by Song Joong Ki takes a very unapologetic and aggressive approach to wooing his lady.
Descendants of the Sun teaser:
Song Joong Ki: Kissing you without your permission….
Song Hye Kyo: That incident, bringing it up before I…..
Song Joong Ki: What do you want me to do? Apologize, or confess my feelings?

When is it expected to come out ?
Woooots!! Looks good! Love SHG but i wish she will have a different kinda sad expression. Think i have seen this expression in the video in her other works too many times.
KbsKbs
I like both leads, but this looks so bloody boring. I know that Kim Eun-Seok is a ratings queen, but she can only write comedy. Which is why A Gentelman's Dignity is the only one of her dramas that I survived until the end.
She's the rating queen because she chooses leads who are popular af and that's the whole story.
I don't trust her writing at all.
Her eyes look SO naked. And red. I know she's pretty and all, but those eyes scream "Please put some eyeliner on me, stat!"
But I'll never understand makeup trends in Korea, I guess, because it super bugs me every time an actress puts on lipstick in a drama that is the EXACT same shade as her lips. It's so bizarre. But then, what's even more so is when someone sees them and goes, "You're wearing makeup, I see." LOL
Lost interest :-(
What a strange choice of teaser... They could've jolted everyone with some action but chose to go the melodramatic route. Sometimes the unexpected is smart, but this just feels like a couple standing in a big empty world. Honestly, I feel like this would be a lot more exciting if it were a different, quirkier actress. It's just a teaser, but both characters feel too serious. Granted, that's probably what they're going for...
Doesn't feel like an official teaser since it's not released by KBS but the production company. Plus there are very minimal edits (even the audio sounds like a rather raw version), probably just the production team feeling merry and decided on something that stirs fangirls' hearts. I'll expect the one to be shown at the Drama Awards to be more action-packed.
That being said Song Joong Ki really has a captivating voice, it reeled me in immediately. Hopefully the drama explores more themes other than just romance (I'm counting on the co-writer for that) as the premise offers much more potential. Can't wait for end February!
what an awkward teaser ?
meh......even some first teaser with just word seem more interesting
