Firstly, I think it's important to note that this drama might not be for everyone. It starts off a bit rough which I think is due to the fact that, in the beginning, the director and the writers weren't really sure what they wanted it to be. Because of that, in the first couple episodes, no one really understands what they are watching or what the core plot of the drama is. The truth is, the plot is really loose which I think drives a lot of people away. However, each episode solidifies the story and becomes greater. I'm so happy that I stuck around till the end because, looking back, it was a really nice story. If you're someone who does not like waiting for plot to pick up then you might want to skip this one, as much as it saddens me to say since I loved it so much. Secondly, I want to talk about the highlights of the drama. One of the writers that co-wrote this drama penned 'You Who Came From the Stars' which also starred Kim Soo Hyun. In 'You Who Came From the Stars' and most other k-dramas, the entertainment world is exaggerated to look glamorous and luxurious. The highlight of 'The Producers' is that it is completely the opposite. This drama is probably the most authentic depiction of the industry in South Korea and that is what kept me hooked. Well, that along with the brilliant acting of the cast. Everyone knows how talented Kim Soo Hyun and Gong Hyo Jin are so I won't bore you with repeating what you already know. I had never seen Cha Tae Hyun in anything before but was very impressed with him. Last but not least, I think Miss IU did a fangirl proud. I was personally worried about her because she was placed next to such big names but I think she did brilliantly. Her character was honestly the only one who really had a solid storyline individually and showed great character growth. Thus so (though I'm probably biased) I thought her character was the most interesting. I also really enjoyed the music of this drama. From what I can remember, most of it was slow and relaxing. However, I think it suited the drama. In terms of 'rewatch value', it depends on how much you liked it the first time you watched it. I gave a 9 because, after having watched it a first time through, it might be nice to rewatch just to take it all in. Overall, I really loved this drama. It was authentic and different from the typical k-drama. Since its different, not everyone will like it. However, I still thinks its a gem though I might be the only one with such an opinion. :) Happy drama watching!!!
