El Sanador

Liked it

The story is emotional, mystery & friendship. After watching the trailer, I thought ML was a stalker who fell in love with her FL, but it's totally different. They build a mystery in one episode & reveal it within a few episodes, like the child's identity, who wants to harm her & why.

Seo Jung Hoo is one kind of agent. He is clever, smart, good at fighting, and has no friends. His jumping from one building to another gave me Tom Cruise feeling. I loved Ji Chang Wook acting like a fool.

Chae Yeong Shin a reporter on a small online platform. She is smart, cheerful, full of love, but has a dark past. She suddenly starts singing and dancing whenever she is depressed, nervous, scared. I liked Park Min Young acting especially her crying scenes.

Kim Moon Ho is a famous reporter who is searching for a child. The story from here. I loved that they didn't show any love triangle. Kim Moon Ho loves & cares for Chae Yeong Shin but not in a lovely way but as an elder.

Loved Jo Min Ja & her sudden outburst.

Chae Yeong Shin *& her father singing "I am Thirsty" & Seo Jung Hoo shock reaction. Her singing & dancing in her room while changing her clothes, she kicked her pants & it landed on Seo Jung Hoo face. The poor boy was so mortified.

It made me emotional when Seo Jung Hoo mother left him & young Seo Jung Hoo crying. His crying face made me cry.

Love the face off between Kim brothers.

Loved it every time Jo Min Ja suddenly appeared on Seo Jung Hoo's screens.

Choi Myung Hee knows that Kim Moon Shik is a changed person now. He is now cunning, a hypocrite, a psycho, manipulating everything, full of tricks, but she never doubts him that maybe he is the one behind everything, as she used to a reporter who used to fight against wrong & corrupt. I get that she also changed became seriously ill because of what happen to her in the past.

Love some sweet scenes like Seo Jung Hoo putting his hand on Chae Yeong Shin head while driving so that she doesn't get hurt. He followed her all the way to her house after the lift incident. She confessed her crush on him.

Seo Jung Hoo is the opposite of his father. His father is jolly minded, jokes around all the time, fun-loving, always smiling. On the other hand, Seo Jung Hoo is serious, doesn't talk much, unsocial. They walking scenes were emotional.

Pure friendships & lives which got ruined because of selfish people.

Seo Jung Hoo face when he had a table full of food, which was rare for him.

The death of three friends, especially Seo Jung Hoo's master, was heartbreaking.

I laughed hard at the screen when Seo Jung Hoo introduced himself as Chae Yeong Shin boyfriend & the way her father wanted to beat her up.

The ending would've been better. I badly wanted to see Choi Myung Hee & Oh Ji An reunion, but they didn't show it.

Things I like: Jeong hoo absolutely nailing it as Bong soo! :D

This was an absolute perfection, the storyline, the casting, the acting, the pacing and the chemistry between the main leads, everything was top notch. so satisfying I didn't expect a 2014 drama to be this delightful but oh well.

firstly the five friends and moon ho, the pirate broadcasting thing was so cool. it was nice to see youngsters in the 80's fighting for freedom in the way they best know to. it was sad where all of them ended up in life moving forward but still their bravery is worth talking about (maybe excluding moon sik).

secondly, Healer i mean Seo jeong hoo or should i say Park bong soo ;) he's such an interesting character. he could be an actor with the way he can just become another person if he wants to and beside that he's also a living weapon, dude doesn't need anything other than his hands to kick some asses :D the way he gradually develops an interest in CYS first and then falls and then changes his life goals was done really well.
"things i like, high places, small hands, these heir. things i don't like: anything and everything that keeps me away from this" -this is a dialogue I'll keep in my mind forever along with when he said "what kind of man makes his women go on a run" Seo jeong hoo, the man that you are. Ji Chang Wook practically lived his role here, bravo!

A drama to start them all

Since almost everything has already been said about Healer, I will try to keep this review as short as possible :
So, basically, you need to watch this drama. Right now.
Well, I'm not saying this is a perfect tv-show (slow motion effect abuse, too much emphasis on obvious things...)
But it's really enjoyable... mostly because there's something to see, to hear and to feel for everyone in this drama.
So... basically, you need to watch this drama.

Alguém me socorra porque eu não estava preparada pra terminar este dorama ;-;.

Sério, que k-drama sensacional!

Eu tive uma certa relutância de começar à assisti-lo, mas assim como com outros, eu estava fazendo burrada em não tê-lo assistido antes.

Healer é maravilhoso! Sem palavras! E que homem não é mesmo! Ji Chang Wook com certeza entrou na lista dos meus maridos. Que homem lindo de morrer. E que personagem e atuação da Park Min Young! Amei a personagem Chae Yeong Shin e meus pontos com a atriz com certeza subiram muito; e não só com ela, a nossa querida "Mãezinha de todos os doramas" Kim Mi Kyung arrasou no papel de hacker! Respeito ela demais.

O elenco, desenvolvimento e fechamento foram muito bons. E a trilha sonora e a química desse casal?? Com licença querido, tem que respeitar. Super recomendo e óbvio que entrou pros favoritos!

A nice little introduction to Ji Chang Wook and Park Min Young

This is one of the best dramas I've seen and as of now, I've watched a few. Has everything - good action; strong plot that doesn't dip in terms of excitement and likeable characters that you really root for (if they're good guys) and want to see their end if they're villians.

It was also well casted and chemistry between the main cast was good and the pacing of the story was just perfect. I didn't watch this when it first came out so unlike those that did, I didn't have to wait for a week between episodes (might have gone mad as virtually every episode ends with a cliffhanger!).

I've watched several other Korean dramas starring Ji Chang Wook and Park Min Young now and I would say that this showcases their talents well. Ji Chang Wook fits the bill as an all action man who sticks to shadows and is a bit of a loner, playing against a feisty, underdog in Park Min Young who gets under his skin.

It's surprisingly non-tropey in that you can't always predict the outcome - the good and bad guys are not always what or who they seem to be. There can be no mistaking that what you think will happen at the end does, but everything in between does keep you hooked into the story and you're genuinely interested in what happens next.

I say give it go. It was one of the first kdramas I ever watched and it holds a little place in my heart because of the fact that I've been watching them almost non-stop for nearly 2 years, almost to the extent that I can't remember the last time I watched something without subtitles!

Seriously outstanding, *applauding*. I mean everything about this KDrama is great! The action, even if you played the song *I Will Protect You" sung by Ji Chang Chook over and over, great song btw I will also play it over and over (lol), the visuals, the martial arts, the costumes, the hair! Let's talk about the action, the car chasing scenes "ON POINT"; the fighting scenes "ON POINT"; jumping and leaping from buildings "ON POINT"! Costumes: The outfits that Ji Chang Chook wore were "ON POINT"!

Ji Chang Chook will be on my fav KDrama list! His portrayal of Seo Jung Hoo was superb! Park Min Young's portrayal of Chao Yeong Shin was also superb! The Romance chemistry between these two was "ON POINT"! A very happy ending "the boy gets his girl" no matter what! I would love to see these two again.

Yoo Ji Tae who played Kim Moon Ho also did great and love the camaraderie he had with all the cast. All the cast did an awesome job in their roles even the mobsters or corrupt politicians.

What a great storyline! I enjoyed every episode that kept me on my toes, and my emotions and I did not skip over any episodes. This is what I love about this Kdrama. A must-watch!
