MUMBAI: After introducing shows from Turkey and Ukraine, Hindi GEC Zindagi will launch blockbuster South Korean drama ‘Descendants of the Sun’ for the first time on Indian television. The date of premiere has not been revealed.
The love story revolves around Special Forces Officer (Song Joong Ki) and a surgeon (Song Hye Kyo), whose destinies are joined together. The finite series was a blockbuster hit in South Korea and garnered immense popularity and top ratings across Asia.
Korean heartthrob Song Joong Ki plays the role of a Special Forces Officer. He is considered one of Korea’s hottest actors with a huge fan following across South East Asia. Prior to bagging the role in the show, the actor served in the Korean Military for two years. The show catapulted him into becoming one of the highest-paid South Korean actors.
‘Descendants of the Sun’ is the story of Special Forces Officer and a surgeon who fall in love at first sight. Their contrasting ideologies and values (as one kills to protect lives while the other one saves lives to protect them) makes them shy away from one another. Destiny plays an interesting role and, after almost a year of having parted ways, they meet at the warzone ‘Uruk’, a land far from Seoul. Now, circumstances bring them face to face where they must work closely together driven by their principles.
