Second Teaser for Descendants of the Sun Showcases Flirting with Leads Song Hye Kyo and Song Joong Ki

The second teaser for Descendants of the Sun is here, hot on the heels of the first teaser a few days earlier. The most that can be said is that the theme is consistent – once again the audience is treated to a random scene between leads Song Joong Ki as a soldier and Song Hye Kyo as a doctor, this time in the environs of a medical facility rather than the picturesque ruins of a old civilization. It just doesn’t work for me, I have to fall for them as a couple within the narrative buildup of the story because Song Hye Kyo never sells me on her romantic connection with a costar in a vacuum. She’s too cold and aloof, albeit beautiful and trying her darndest to connect with Song Joong Ki, but the scenes don’t resonate without context so the production is doing the highly anticipated drama no favors just choosing these scenes as the first teasers. With that said, good golly is Song Joong Ki hella sexy! *fans myself*

Second teaser for Descendants of the Sun:

Song Joong Ki: A doctor can’t have a boyfriend, right, because too busy…..

Song Hye Kyo: A soldier can’t have a girlfriend, right, because too difficult…..

Song Joong Ki: Who knows?……

  • These teasers are totally harmless and I can't say they're wrong or right for releasing them, I just find it odd that they would choose those scenes instead of showing off their war torn sets, explosions, and whatever else they have, considering it's a war drama after all.

    • As usual, everything else apart from the romance takes the backseat. Or maybe just hiding their best cards? But, hey, it's just a teaser so who knows right?(pun not intended lol).

      I don't mind though. Usually, kdramas trying(or sometimes are really) to be original or creative end up relying on the usual tropes after some eps. But it would be a real waste of all the budget if romance just takes the limelight, right? And this is so weird coming from me(even when I try to deny it, I'm a sucker for romance). I'll still watch no matter what anyway. For the love of Song Joong Ki! :D

  • Don't know how the drama will turn out but they totally sold me on the chemistry! they look good together

  • They need to show us things in teasers on which they have spent such a big budget. Like some good explosive war scenes, foreign locations. Maybe they will in next teasers.

  • I agree... I get NOTHING from Song Hye Kyo... so emotionless....
    Song Joong Ki on the other hand is killing it for me.... I can sense his character and yes he is look mighty fine!

    • Me neither.What is her hook? I don't get why is she so much renowned apart from the face factor? While ha ji won actually acts lot better,and her popularity is worth it,or gong hyo jin.But song hye kyo is somewhat not that much impressive in giving expressions.Her face does not even move.I cannot relate to her character,even if she's the one hurting..for example in 'that winter the wind blows.'

  • It feels like they are trying to create an atmosphere like Oh My Venus did. So Ji Sub and Shin Min Ah might have just created the best couple in Kdrama, they are so convincing with their incredible chemistry and mature lovestory.
    But here I feel nothing except SJK. He could romance a wall, which he actually might have to do.

    • It was always like that, I've never saw him with someone who is able to give the same performance\aura? as him in any of his Dramas\movies, except the "Wolf boy movie" but that movie was strange and everyone had his own world anyway.

      But generally speaking, for me anything with SJK means we are going to see a fascinating world where there is no one exists\or matters other than him. He is fascinating in his own world and I don't know if that is considered as a good thing to have as an actor or a bad thing!
      anyway from the start I was determine to see his performance and expect nothing else.

    • Eh, being written by KES, it will be a nice surprise if it has a 'mature' love story. I'll probably tune in. Lol at the wall comment.

    • Hi there... Thank you making me laugh so hard with the romancing a wall comment. but damn, that wall is one lucky wall... I'd probably even wish I was that wall..

      Also, why do I feel like Song Hye Kyo would be wonderful as the b*tchy second lead/protagonist?

  • Song Hye Kyo looks like his mother (these are the vibes she gives off). Why couldnt they cast Moon Chae Won? Or Park Bo Young? :(. I feel like Song Joong Ki is the only one giving his most. SHK just doesnt work for me.

  • Song Joong Ki eyes are screaming love but Song Hye Ko looks like she's back playing a blind girl.. Such a shame :( Applause for Song Joong Ki though for having that much of confidence in him playing his cooky character beside Song Hye Ko who is his senior by years. Joongki feeelss ;;;;;;

    by the way, i feel like going back to those Doctor Stranger days when Lee Jong Suk was dying to connect with Jin Se Yeon but she just could not connect with him. Another same thing would be both male wonderful performance in the middle ridiculous script
