As much as I love Lee Ha Na, the lack of Jang Hyuk means I don't need to bother with this. It's kind of a relief, actually, since I spent so much of the first one FFing through all the gore and violence.
You're too kind. :)Interesting you ask for dramas similar to this one because I just finished "A Poem A Day" and…
"All About My Romance" is way better than "A Poem A Day", but if you really liked "Doctors", APAD is much more similar to it than AAMR. But AAMR is more like OMV: funny, zany, sweet, heartfelt.
My sister watched it 2 years ago and hated it, so I never looked into it until after reading your review. And…

Incredible for 14 hours and then turns to almost irredeemable nonsense. I can't recall a drama this good ending this terribly. I won't say not to watch it, but try not to get too fooled once you're almost done. I was surprised how bad the ending was.
Yesssss. Her turn in Pinocchio made me fall in love with her. Been aching to see her as a lead (in something good) ever since. She has not disappointed me here.
While I can kind of agree that Dr. Ye has been a bit on the bland side, he's still a MUCH better choice for Bo…
While I *can* see how some might view Doc Ye as "bland", I think it's an incorrect viewpoint. His arc and internal struggles have been compelling, and he's made his share of mistakes as well. What's fascinating has been his response to those mistakes. Additionally, his feelings for Bo Young have been expressed more through actions than with words, leaving us the audience to analyze those actions. However, that setup means that when he does use his words, they have quite a lot more impact than they otherwise might. When he says to her "Can I give you some advice?" and then follows that with something really tender, thoughtful, and encouraging it makes you appreciate his feelings so much.
It's rare for any male lead to make my heart flutter, but Doc Ye has done it at least once. So I don't know if I can agree that he's bland at all.
oof minho.... never liked you and i hate how things are leading up to her liking you. feeds into the idea that…
No way she ends up with Min Ho unless Doc Ye *dies* and we get a time skip of several years. The entire point of Min Ho's character arc is to show the consequences of treating people's feelings like they're not important.
Minho has "nice guy" -syndrome. where everybody thinks he is nice when he is actually not. ep 14 just proofed…
The *entire* reason I thought Min Ho was First Lead for so long was because he came into the story first and was *highly* flawed, and after seeing all his flaws they introduced Doc Ye, who was near-perfect. This is the classic kdrama setup for the heroine to ultimately choose the flawed guy who needs a lot of work and leave the perfect one high and dry.
Really, really happy that they flipped the script on this one.

*blinks*
I....... what?
