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.

Story: The story of doctors is central around lives of doctors and the heartaches of of being being a doctor. Though the story felt it didn't really progressed at all which if that a big turn off then this is not going to enjoy this. I will say you mainly watch this for the romance which is like I feel that was the main reason you watch this drama.
Acting/Cast: When I was looking at preview and looking at the comments on the page of this drama I saw that this was a different role for Park Shin Hye with her always playing the innocent type of girl. Hye jung is nothing like that which I think she did well this was my first drama of hers I watched and i love to see more. Kim Rae Woon was great, this was not my first drama of his I sawed him in Punch and he was great in it.
Music: the Music was so perfect No way by Park Yong In & Kwon Soon il is the first song of a k drama I have ever wanted to look up the translated in English (which I never do but it was awesome). The second song It love was OK it was not anything special to me but i liked listening to it.
Overall/ Re Watch value: I definitely re watch this drama in a couple years once I feel it the right time.

However, for some people they might find it boring hahaha. it does not have suspense at all that makes u super curious. For me, i don't really wait for the next episode nor i need to binge watch it, coz yes, it has slow plot, coz it's a drama that is about everyday life. So i just enjoy it every now and then until i finish it. but it's a wonderful ride.

Watch for the Cute Leads
I’m not a fan of medical dramas but I gave this a shot because I like both the male and female leads. PSH is such a beauty. She’s lovely to watch on screen. KRW is really manly and handsome. He’s lovely to watch on screen too.Watch because:
- beautiful leads
- overall, good-looking cast
- plot is generally interesting throughout
- plot is generally well-linked
- plot is generally fast-paced
- chemistry between the two leads is sizzling - I love watching them being lovey-dovey on screen
- kissing scenes on fire between the two leads
- love triangles that aren’t full of angst
Worth watching for sure.
Rewatch value is pretty high!
Enjoy!

"DOCTORS: prescription for DISAPPOINTMENT"
This show sets high expectations with its title, hinting at a medical-heavy plot, but the reality is far from that. Despite its dramatic title, medicine barely makes up 15% of the storyline. For anyone hoping for genuine medical insight, this show may feel like a letdown, especially compared to others like Dr. Romantic, which focuses a solid 80% on medical content and offers far more authentic hospital drama.The love story in Doctors feels forced, and the chemistry between the leads lacks depth—particularly on the male lead's side. While I admire Park Shin Hye, even her charm couldn't salvage the awkward dynamic between the couple. There’s a certain stiffness in their romantic moments that feels off, and it's disappointing because both actors are incredibly talented.
Lee Sung Kyung is versatile, but her character in Doctors is frustratingly flat and indecisive, leaving her little to work with. It’s far from her best role, and her potential seems wasted. Yoon Kyun Sang, too, is underwhelming, playing a character that merely fills the gaps in the story without adding much to the overall plot.
Sadly, Doctors fails to impress across the board. Neither the story nor the cast stand out, and the music is forgettable. This is the kind of show you start, intending to finish, but ultimately abandon halfway through, never to return. 😔

The first episodes in the past are perfect but in middle you want to drop it. It is so boring in middle till end. I watched 3 last episodes in 2 hour. Really so boring for me.
If kim rae-won wasn't in this drama, this was in my dropped list in ep8.
The result is ( i hate medical drama forever )
I just recommended it for who love medical(60%) and romance(40%) in slow pace.

They will make you cry and laugh and you will fall in love with each character. Music is totally mesmerizing. Background score is suitable in every situation. The song No-way is so good. This k-drama was not all lovey dovey. But with a strong plot and good characters. It would be great if the length was short. If you want to watch a medical kdrama i 100% recommend it. ????????❤️

This review may contain spoilers
I may be in the minority, but I really like this!
An unruly teenage girl meets a compassionate teacher who inspires her to change the path she’s on.A jealous classmate acts out, causing a ripple effect of destruction. {side note: I’d never seen this actress in the sorta villainess role before, but she totally nailed it. I usually love her characters but she successfully made me dislike her character here (and then later liking.)Which just proves her talent and duality as an actress 👏🏻.}
So the Leads’ innocent friendship is painted to be something wrong and dirty. The FL is facing jail time. The ML leaves his teaching position. Outside forces cause havoc, the FL loses a dear family member, and the two wind up walking different paths.
They’re reunited by chance 13 years later. He’s returned to his post at the hospital and she’s become a street-savvy neurosurgeon in his department. Will they be able to put the past behind them and face the future together?
I love this drama. It’s by far one of my favorites in the medical genre. The storyline and pacing are done really well. The characters all make you feel all the feels - their anger and heartache, their jealousy and desperation; their happiness and friendship, their caring and strength.
And the Leads. Oh, the Leads. 🫠🫠 They have really good chemistry. I love their interactions, the big moments and the small, seemingly-inconsequential ones. They’ve never forgotten one another, never moved on from how they feel towards each other. And now that the ML has the FL back in front of him, he refuses to ever let her go again. His pursuit and wooing of her is so sweet. I love how he adjusts to her pacing and listens to her needs. She, in turn, slowly thaws under his attention, once again letting him (and only ever him!) close to her heart. Total swoon!
