Solid and Satisfying!
After reading some of the reviews, I kind of felt like I watched a totally different drama than some others!
Doctor On The Edge's ratings surprised me as I thought, in fact, it delivered so much more than the medical rom com it was advertised to be.
For myself, it was a truly satisfying drama with just the right amount of emotional and comedic moments. Never so much comedy you cringed and the emotions, including the romances, checked all the boxes. I really never once wanted to "fast forward" through part of an episode but rather was really absorbed with each one...and felt kind of sad to see the drama end.
The story arc was easy to follow and well executed throughout. The stories inside the drama were really touching...giving us some insight into many of the supporting cast and even, at times, allowing for some good healthy tearing up. Those quietly poignant instances were beautifully done and remindful for me, of some of the stories that pulled at my heartstrings in the wonderful drama When You Wish Upon Me.
I thought the performances by the WHOLE cast were absolutely solid in this drama so kudos to the actors and the casting agency!
I also felt strong chemistry with both couples, lead and secondary: Lee Jae Wook and Shin Ye Eun were a great match; well balanced , kind of each others yin and yang. LJW is a favorite of mine and it was really nice to watch him in a drama I enjoyed all the way through!
Can I say, too, how happy I was to see that the talented and versitle Kim Yoon Woo from My Dearest was part of the second couple in DOTE. He played alongside a newbie for me, Lee Soo Kyung, who was captivating as the local nurse. They were also a well matched and gotta say adorable pair! And then, of course, shall we talk about Mr. Hong Min Gi? What a treat he is/was...
All in all I thought Doctor On The Edge a GREAT drama, and probably one I'll rewatch when I need something that strikes the right chord throughout and leaves me feeling good.
