Background

Dick move, but I loved it. It made me laugh.

I think this moment shows better the complexity between Kang Mo Yeon’s character. She plays a tough doctor, but on the inside she is also really scared of things outside of her field. The complexity of the female lead is something that I like about this character as to oppose to other female leads, so she not as two dimensional as most people think.

I’m sorry, I have to say it, but can they try and find better non-korean actors. It honestly sometimes just make me think they took the first person who signed up for the job. It takes me out of the show.

The complexity of the before story is what kind of makes this now plot more interesting. We are just catching a moment in the lives of the characters before they go on, but the detail of the before, is quite curious as well, and makes me want to watch an entire drama based on who each character got to the point where they are currently. This episode highlights this with the relationship between Dae Yeong and Yoon Myung Ju.

Overall it wasn’t a bad episode but the plot feels kind of slow until the end. Maybe because the first two episodes their relationship progressed so quickly. This episode feels important to set up the next part of the story as well as reveal needed background information.

Are you still in the business of saving lives?

While I enjoyed this episode I don't like where the romance is heading. I hate the way some writers love to play cat and mouse with their leads. They started out strong let's continue that way, huh?
The high risks and instability will play enough of a role in their relationship, not to mention the commander, so let those be the conflict not petty issues between the two.
Love the young doctor, he is hilarious! All and all, I like the supporting cast of the medical crew.
Second lead character fizzled out in this episode I hope I see a bit more of him without that deadpan expression.

Solid episode

This was a solid third episode. Nothing really happens in terms of plot development, but it focuses on the characters. Mo Yeon and Shi Jin are getting to know each other again, and they're realizing just how much they've changed on their time apart.
We have to wait and see what happens with the rest of the relationships.

Episode 3 This Show is still going strong:

I am enjoying the pacing and the expanding on all the characters stories. There are so many different personalities and they all fit well as an overall cast.

I like how Mo Yeon is being portrayed here. She's gotten cynical with losing out because she doesn't have the clout of family and wealth. She's decided that since she cannot beat them she'll join them by playing along with the politics but she still has that raw independence that made her start down this path of hard work. She wants to win despite it all.

Si Jin is the same as ever. He's still infatuated with her and unable to handle her gruff exterior. He seems torn because he can see deep within her the true person she is and she is much like him in personality. It hurts him to see her give in and seeming to give up but he's not fully given up on her either way.

Interesting Love Quadrangle explained in this episode. Not sure I like the dynamic here. Funny how the 2 main couples are similar in opposing ways: i.e. Mo Yeon is poor/Si Jin is rich; Myung Ju is rich/Dae Yeong is poor. Sad that the dad want Si Jin since he's not the type to beg and curtsy... He fits with Mo Yeon because I see how similarly they process their emotions.

I enjoy how Mo Yeon and Si Jin are very human in this episode. If I was Mo Yeon, I'd have told him to move over so I can get a good view of the studs as well. His reaction is right on point as well. They haven't seen each other in 9 months, yet the attraction is still there. They've already tried this and she felt as if he didn't fit her lifestyle and he feels like she didn't give him a chance considering how she's not saving lives like before and merely a Camera Princess now. They're still feeling each other out but you can see that the attraction is pretty strong to make it difficult to set it aside.

The ending is pretty overly dramatic. Makes me uneasy as to the direction the next episode will take. The previews don't help either. I don't see how they get back to normal from here on out, so it feels like the romance stuff might be set aside for a while. Which is fine. It's a military drama anyway so the context is more serious even if there are lighthearted and comedic moments. At least up until now, there is a healthy balance between it all... including when he teases her about landmines, which is comedic... but she takes it serious and cries, which, in all honesty, is the appropriate reaction to that kind of cruel joke. What I'm saying is, for now, it all works well.
