I'm not a So Ji Sub fan, so I was going to give this a miss until I saw that the second lead was Shin Sung Rok. Ah, Shin Sung Rok. Such a mixed blessing you are! Great actor. Sexy (to me, anyway). And always the bad guy. Well, honestly, he does evil better than almost anyone, but there's so much more to this actor. Will there ever be a drama where I can just quietly fall in love with him over 16 episodes? Apparently not. I keep hoping, but I've heard that evil roles are more fun to play, so he just goes from one flavor of evil to the next. My watch list is full of half-watched dramas, where I gave up on any redemption for him.
DoctorLawyer is another one of those dramas full of scheming, subterfuge, and unpleasant, self-centered characters whom you are bound to dislike. The plot is appropriately convoluted, with an ending that gives everyone their comeuppance. I actually dislike dramas like this, and half the time I end up rooting for the bad guys, because the good guys are so impossibly goody-two-shoes. I definitely did not care for Im Soo Hyang, who was still screening as Woori the Virgin when she showed up here as a lawyer - with not much difference of character. Well, I watched it to the end. If this is your cup of tea, you might enjoy it. But you should probably read someone else.s review, I obviously have a jaundiced view.
