I'll say it - Jayden should have been the lead
What constitutes a good revenge drama: suspense, an intriguing lead, and of course, great revenge.
Doctor Lawyer lacks in all these categories and only makes up for it with the acting of Shin Sung Rok aka Jayden Lee.
The story of a good revenge drama depends on a fast paced and totally lead controlled narrative, but Han Yi Han, the lead here seems to depend upon the actions of others rather than his own to exact revenge. Even when the revenge is served, it feels like a let down when compared to other such dramas.
The acting doesn't help much either, with the other two leads delivering some of their scenes in the stoniest way possible.
The ending was no better, and I don't think the final arc of any character was satisfying enough. Just fell extremely flat.
Admittedly, this is not totally terrible, and has some absolutely brilliant moments too, but in retrospect, the drama could've been a tad better based off of the premise.
