The Producers

I remember watching an interview with Kim Soo Hyun where he was asked why he agreed to be part of this drama. He replied that he wanted to shed his Do Min Joon character and I decided to give it a try. I thought it would be also good for me to see him doing something completely different.

I didn't have any expectations going into this drama but looking at the cast, I thought maybe this was going to be amazing giving the different storyline and the fresh documentary editing style. It had great potential from the start but as it progressed and perhaps given the short numbers of episodes, nothing was really well developed and there was never really a point to anything. I did find the day-to-day struggles that PD's face in this drama was very interesting, but it failed to have proper depth, choosing instead to focus on a silly romance that was not going anywhere.

Overall I enjoyed watching Kim Soo Hyun in a new role but ultimately this drama suffered from changing directors halfway, not having more episodes, and a bit more time to develop characters and story-line.
