Beautiful Chemistry Makes Doctor’s Mine an Enjoyable Watch

Story
I just finished all 10 episodes and I’m glad we got a happy ending for all four couples. The story itself was not the best. The plot felt weak, and the jealous female characters were annoying and unnecessary. The SA flashback in episode 5 added nothing meaningful and could have been left out. It also felt unrealistic that all six boys and two girls began as straight but eventually turned gay. This is something that only seems to exist in BL worlds and not in real life.

Acting and Cast
Despite its flaws, I truly enjoyed the series. All four male leads were stunning, and the chemistry between MonPak and LeeArm stood out above the rest. Their connection was intense and believable, and their NC scenes were both hot and realistic. Some of the kiss and NC scenes in this drama rank among the best I have seen this year.

Characters
Two aspects of the story stayed with me long after the final episode. The first was the way the two brothers met their lovers. Knight’s first encounter with Mild was tender and fateful. As a child, he nearly drowned, and Mild saved him, planting the seed of love in his heart. Per’s story, on the other hand, was far more abrupt. His first meeting with Kan happened in a car during a sexual encounter, and from that glance onward, his entire orientation seemed to shift. Unrealistic, yes, but in the world of this drama, I accepted it.

The second aspect was Per’s mother. Many viewers will hate her, but I could not bring myself to. Per was her only son. She dreamed of seeing him with a wife, welcoming a daughter-in-law and holding a grandchild. Instead, he changed in a way she could not easily understand. From an Asian cultural perspective, this is not a simple transition. Generational expectations, family honor, and social image weighed heavily on her.
Per never had a true heart-to-heart with her, which explained her resistance. When she slapped Kan in the hospital, it was not out of cruelty but out of anger and fear. Her son had nearly died, and in her eyes, Kan was at fault. I did not agree with her actions, but I understood them. She wanted only the best for her child. In the end, I was glad they finally had the conversation they needed, and that she came to accept Kan and her son’s relationship. Many fans continue to despise her, but I believe her character was written with realism. If she had accepted Kan from the beginning, the story would have lost its emotional depth and its rollercoaster of drama.

Overall
This was not the greatest BL series, but it was still a fun and engaging watch. It gave me moments that were touching, frustrating, and unforgettable. I look forward to seeing the cast in future projects, carrying with me both the flaws and the sparks of brilliance that made this series memorable.
