I love anything war related from dramas/movies to books etc; I originally went into this drama having very little knowledge of the Korean War and only knowing Kim Haneul and that IU sang a song for the OST. This is one of the most breath-taking and beautiful dramas I have ever watched.

Road Number One is so much more than war. It's about love, brotherhood, hate, and betrayal. The love I'm talking about does not only focus on the main characters but also all the other characters whether it's the love for their wife, friend or family. The brotherhood shown is simply beautiful, the brotherhood between the main army unit focus in this drama. You can feel their close knit bond and the quote "no man gets left behind" really applies in this case. Not only does the it focuses on the main characters but I love how the writers don't ignore the supporting characters and add in their stories and that's what makes this drama so damn beautiful.

This drama was flawlessly cast and I have nothing more to say.

The music made me so emotional. Even though I don't know understand a word they're singing I can just the emotion in their voices to understand it and the flawless fit to the scene in the drama. My personal favourite is IU's Because I'm A Woman.

I would definitely re-watch this again because well that's just me and my love of war.

Overall, avid drama watcher or not, war lover or not, even if you're not a fan of these actor/actresses I recommend this drama. I totally fell in love with this drama and it's definitely underrated. REGARDLESS, of your drama preferences just give this drama a chance and it will be one of the best drama you've have ever watched. I guarantee it.

I don't usually write reviews unless I genuinely really enjoyed the drama and this is only my second review on MDL. As a fan of Iris franchise and a fan of the action genre I really loved how this drama turned out.

What I really liked most about this drama was how they connected it to the first season BUT it also had its own story line. As for how the story was played out it was outstanding. You can keep up with the story because it's not too fast and it wasn't too slow that I wanted to skip parts. It comes with many plot twists and cliffhangers that always puts me in automatic rage mode and screaming at my screen. It's so exhilarating to watch because you want to know more and the story just sucks you in. The story is original, unique and a balanced of action, suspense and a hint of romance. This drama is always leaving you thinking about the real truth and to makes that's what makes this drama so brilliant.

There were a few characters that I dislike but then I realized that if you hate a character that means that actor/actress is playing his/her role right. The acting was seriously flawless. Not all but most supporting character play a huge role in the drama and I love how everyone is not ignored. The fact that brought back old characters was great. In the more emotional scenes you can really feel the emotions and sympathise with the characters. You can also see the character development in everyone, you can literally see the changes from episode 1 to episode 20.

I enjoyed the music a lot. The songs really reflected the emotions and the situations and I think that is extremely important in dramas.

I would definitely re-watch Iris 2, it is one of the best dramas of 2013 in my opinion. (AND BECAUSE YOON DOOJOON LIKE COME ON GUYS, SEXY BEAST.)

Overall, Iris 2 had me on the edge of my seat in every episode and it was always agonizing to wait for the next episode. It's been a long journey with Iris and I'm very sad to have finish watching it but for future watchers I hope you enjoy this drama as much as I did. It's a great watch and I definitely recommend it.
