The Story
I always like stories of underdogs who turned their life around. But Doctors is the story after our heroine turned her life around which made it less interesting than how I thought it would be. If I am to choose which part I liked the most, I'll divide Doctors into: the hospital politics, the romance, Hye-jung's past, and the other characters. Out of these, I'll select 'the other characters' as my favorite. I really don't care much about the hospital politics and I found Hye-jung's past frustrating. I like the romance, don't get me wrong, cause they really are cute at times, I like how they are supposed to be together to grow and enjoy life together. It's just that after a few episodes of getting together, I think it was way too much.
The Cast
This drama have its fair share of good actors and actresses. I love our heroine badass so when she started softening around the edges, I find myself liking her less or less (or is it just the story?). I like Lee Sung-kyung's character until everything got frustrating on her storyline. Lee Sung-kyung's character always end up being sympathetic but frustrating (I do hope to find her in something better). Kim Min-suk and Yoon Kyu-sang keeps me watching and the other side characters. It also helped that this drama invested in cameos. I could have stopped watching this until Nam Goong-min cameod.
Rewatch Value
I can't watch the last episodes without skipping on a LOT of scenes so...
Overall
I did enjoy Doctors for most of the beginning run. I just found it too long with not enough plot to cover. Funny how everything goes around like karma here. But, the last episodes are thoughtful and somehow lifted what I felt about this drama (though there really are a lot of rolling eyes that happened while I'm watching).
