Doctors starts out great with a somewhat interesting premise. Somewhere halfway through, the story pretty much stalls. You don't get a clear idea where it's going and revolves around. The drama would definitely have benefitted from better writing as they could get more out of the actors and their characters. If you are a Park Shin Hye or Kim Rae Won fan you will probably find it easier to endure. The drama has lots of heart fluttering moments between Hye Jung & Ji Hong that will leave you smiling from ear to ear. Not a fan of one of the main characters? Perhaps it's better to drop the serie. The lighthearted feel isn't enough to keep you watching. There are better ones out there as the drama doesn't have the plot to carry its characters.
The cast is great. With a line-up containing the likes of Park Shin Hye, Kim Rae Won, Yoon Gyun Sang, Lee Sung Kyung as main roles it's disappointing to see that the story clearly doesn't do anything for them. The supporter roles were filled in quite good as well, with Kim Min Suk, Moon Ji In & Yoon Da In just to name some. It's the first time I liked Park Shin Hye's character as she has been playing a lot of weak female lead roles. Nice to see her change it up for once. She acts out the more serious, responsible side of Hyejung in a good way. Combining her new bad ass image + her usual emotional acting, it makes a great mix. Kim Rae Won's character, Ji Hong is almost a full 360 degrees from his last role in 'Punch' where he played a cold prosecutor. This role suited him as he gives off that nice & caring personality. Great acting from Kim Rae Won. Yoon Gyun Sang's part could have been bigger. Stated as a main role, he wasn't that influential but he wasn't a support character either. Somewhere in between. Contrary to his character Moo Hyul in Six Flying Dragons, who has a clear identity, Yoon Do fades away as the story goes on. He captured his character (personality) very well which only makes it sad that he became a victim of bad writing. Good to see that Lee Sung Kyung is expanding her horizon by trying out different roles. This girl is making her way into drama's. Steady performance, just not really fond of her character. A nice addition with cameo appearances from Han Hye Jin, Namgoong Min, Lee Sang Yeob etc.
The background music is beautiful and fits in nicely with the drama. Urban Zakapa, Younha and more complete the OST with great songs.
Doctors has a good beginning but after that the story seems dragged as it doesn't seem to progress. It's very shallow but you might want to keep watching if you love the actors. The story isn't written well enough to know what it's about but it's bearable to some extent. The development of the "relation" between Hye Jung & Ji Hong, the lighthearted moments and the music are one of the few reasons which makes the drama worth watching.
On a side note: The styling of Hye Jung (Park Shin Hye) & Seo Woo (Lee Sung Kyung) was on point. Loved their outfits. They looked great.
