Bland revenge
OK honestly I started doctor lawyer with very low expectation. But after the first episode my expectations increased. With actors like So ji sub and shin sung rok it wasn't wrong to expect from this drama. But unfortunately the drama despite having good plot and an exciting theme like revenge couldn't deliver what it promised.
*what I liked*
The way the story started I was immediately hooked. A talented doctor Han Yihan who was respected for his talent but also acted as a ghost doctor for the director's son. We all knew there would be a lot of jealousy and anger.
So ji sub portrayed han Yihan perfectly well.
Of course this drama depends so much on shin sung rok as Jayden Lee. After a certain period of time you realise he is the only interesting character in the drama. Jayden Lee makes you root for him inspite of not knowing if he's a good guy or bad. I may be biased but I found shin sung rok overshadowing the leads.
*what I disliked*
I honestly found the drama to again insult our minds when it comes to female leads. As a prosecutor our female lead was very bad in keeping secrets about the revenge. I think it's high time the dramas stop showing good people as stupid. There were many loopholes in the storyline. At one point it was just dragging. Honestly when you watch a revenge drama you expect some fast paced action. Doctor lawyer wasn't heavy for a revenge drama.
Overall I loved this drama. I was hooked and I can forgive some silly plotholes because of the actors and their hardwork. I would not rewatch it but if I have to maybe only Jayden Lee and his very subtle bromance (why didn't they explore this) with our lead. The actors were definitely good and if only the story was well knit doctor lawyer could have been a better watch. But nevertheless this was a good show.
