Secretly Greatly 은밀하게 위대하게.
I just watched finish it and one word: AWESOME
Kim Soohyun (who happens to be my favourite actor <3) is the lead of the show. HE WAS DAMN CUTE (and handsome). Lee Hyun Woo (who i happen to like to) is inside too! He is damn cute too!
Here is the Plot copied and paste from wikipedia:
A group of spies called the 5446 Corps were trained by North Korean elite special forces since their youth, ostensibly towards the lofty goal of unifying Korea. They are ambitiously dispatched to South Korea, where each disguises himself as a fool, an aspiring singer, and a high school student. Passing boring time without receiving any orders from the North, they gradually get used to life as ordinary neighbors in a small town until one day, their mundane lives are turned upside down when a "secret and great" mission is suddenly assigned to them. Due to the events of the Second Battle of YeonPyeong, South Korea demands the names, location, and rank of 30 North Korean spies active in South Korea, promising financial aid to the North on the condition that Pyongyang turns in their spies. To prevent the elites from falling into enemy hands, the North Korean government orders dozens of active duty spies to take their own lives. Meanwhile their North Korean army instructor Kim Tae-won crosses the border to eliminate those who refuse to follow.

My opinions:
Honestly, I loved the plot. North korean and south koreans at war, Secret troop sent to south korea as spys. I like how they disguised themselves. I think the actors potray their characters really well too especially Kim soohyun.
I don't know how to express my thoughts because it goes beyond what words can express. There are funny parts where you can laugh to, sad/touching parts where you can cry to It may not be the best movie ever but it certainly touches your heart and make you feel that it is the best movie at that moment. It even inspires me to write a fanfic about it :/
With handsome guys and good plot, this is a definitely a MUST WATCH! IT IS AWESOME.
