All and all it's a really good drama
Lovers is a 2006 production, with a mature cast and a complex plot. I really liked how the characters were slowly unfolded and the complexity that each one had. It truly felt like an old, far far away in time drama, when actually it was made just 14 years ago. I read so many times that old Asian dramas are the best and Lovers proved it.
I loved the ML character, I felt his pain as an orphan, his loneliness, his lack of emotions or it seemed so -at first- and I fell for his kindness, which surprised me how they showed the sensitive side of a gangster. It was his acting that made it worth watching this show.
I extremely disliked the FL to the point I considered several times, to stop watching it. Her bad and exaggerated acting constantly reminded me of Itazura na Kiss actress. Yep, that bad. I found myself often screaming at the screen: Do something!! Are you really a doctor? Or... Are you really a surgeon?? And things like that, including some of them not so pleasant. I made a mental note to never watch any her dramas again to avoid the pain I was in.
This drama truly moved me, infuriated me, and shook me. It kept me hooked from start to end. I didn't fast forward it at all. Yes, it was a bit lengthy but enjoyable, except for how the FL was portrayed.
This definitely was a different kind of drama. I couldn't take the main actress's side or to root for her. I understand she didn't have any kind of love life experience but she as a middle-aged professional woman' she lacked common sense, a lot. You may not have experience in love but as a 32 yo. surgeon. Can she really have lived in a bubble that much? Can her ignorance be that big? 12 years of studying to be a Plastic Surgeon didn't permeate in her a bit of wisdom at all?
There is something else: I felt it lacked a little bit more of the roughness and ruthlessness of the gangster's world. Although the fighting scenes were excellent. These gangsters were very mild. I understood the leaders: the Chairman and the ML: they truly wanted to change their lifestyle. I get it, but there were times where I expected more.
Rewatch value: if available I think I'll watch it again later on. It was really hard to find it with eng subs.
