Six Flying Dragons (2015)

An epic historical drama based on real history...

As a lover of gritty saguk dramas, this fully lived up to my expectations and even exceeded them. This drama was a very intelligent blend of real historical events/characters and fictional ones. The real life characters bring the reality to the drama and the fictional ones breath life and excitement into it.

The acting in this drama is on another level, it's brilliant. The actors I enjoyed in particular were Yoo Ah In who played every aspect of Bang won's adult life superbly and Park Hyuk Kwon who played two separate characters but pulled off both of their distinct personalities.

The ost for this drama is breath-taking, the songs match the melancholy atmosphere of the entire drama and lift the already dramatic or emotional scenes to new heights.

One thing that needs to be mentioned is the sword fight scenes, out of all of the k drama's I've seen, this one has by far the best choreographed sword fights! Really, the only downside of this drama is that it can be quite confusing at times, mainly because of the overwhelming number of characters. Nevertheless, it's worth getting invested in. Since it's a 50 episode drama there's so much more I could say but really you should just give it a watch and see if it is your thing! I will say though, don't expect a light, happy, romantic drama because it's very far from that...

MASTERPIECE

I just wanna to say a big thank you to the people involved in the production of this series and of course the casts, this is AMAZING. Love the character development. The end of every episode just blows your mind and you just want to watch another episode to know what is going to happen. Lucky for me, all the episodes are released so I can binge in one setting! The death of each prominent characters (I shall not name who and you should watch to find out) brought tears to my eyes. I broke down even more during the last few episodes especially the hugging scene in EP50.. Things have to be sacrificed for the bigger picture, this is true indeed. Lee Bang Won just had to endure it and suffer alone..... :''')

This is a very thrilling kdrama for me. The action scenes are very intense, especially the sword fights among swordsmen. The part that really hooked me was the part where they were invited to a banquet not knowing that they will be attacked - that was so intense ???

It's very educational. I have learned a lot about their history, and I was motivated to learn more ??

Every actors suits the character they're playing. I was really entertained.

Yoon Kyun Sang is actually the reason why I watch this drama, and I never regretted it. He is really amazing and his acting is really entertaining. I loved every scene that he's in.??? His scene when he wanted to challenge the best swordsman but failed really made me laugh.

Byun Yo-han is so appealing in his character. He's quite uncanny though -- a swordsman that looks so kind and gentle.?

This drama, however, is quite brutal for me. I don't know how to explain it, but I find it strange to see dead children and a kid being slash with a sword ?

This is a worth watching kdrama ??

I'm going to keep this short (since other people have said it better); if you're looking for a thoroughly entertaining historical drama with great acting and plot, this is the one for you. Don't let the length of the drama keep you away. Yoo Ah In has done a phenomenal job in this. He perfectly portrayed Yi Bang Won's passion, his indignation, his wounded heart, his clever mind, and so much more. He has complete mastery over facial expressions. It was so satisfactory to watch. Other male leads i.e. 'flying dragons' are just as amazing.
The only thing I didn't like was Lee Sung Kyung's poor acting which ruined everything that had to do with Boon Yi for me. Lee Sung Kyung does not know how to use her eyebrows or her mouth to express her emotions and it is truly a shame. I don't know if she's improved later in her career but her acting in this drama wasn't it. I did not like Boon Yi's pairing with Bang Won as there was no chemistry there at all, but I'm still glad that romance was never the center of the drama.

Increíblemente, gracias a un drama de 50 capítulos, he recuperado mi interés por los dramas históricos coreanos.
Había perdido el interés por este género ya que siempre eran lo mismo, todos contra uno, el rey siempre era una marioneta, la reina era la viva, los príncipes herederos ni sabían nada, y siempre había alguien en la corte que quería el poder sin el título de rey... buuu, siempre lo mismo.
Pero con los Dragones Voladores, muchas cosas cambiaron, menos que los reyes siempre fueron las marionetas de otros; las demás cosas, cambiaron notablemente.
La historia de construir un nuevo paìs fue atrapadora y las actuaciones y los personajes que se necesitaron fueron aún mejores.
Lo que si no me gustó de este drama, fue el final donde dejan muchas cosas abiertas, y los finales de algunos personajes no me agradaron, sin embargo en general fue un broche de oro para toda la historia.
De principio a fin, fue un drama que mantuvo coherencia, dinamismo, y grandes actuaciones, acompañadas por una magnifica banda sonora... el que diga que este drama es malo, es porque no lo ha visto, y si dice que lo dejo antes del capítulo 10, es porque no le gusta la historia.
En resumen, es un drama que todo adicto a los dramas debe ver.
Pd: Si se han visto My Country, podrán percibir que es parecido y siento que prefiero a Jang Hyuk que a Yoo In Ah jajajajaja
