ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE

I can't describe how much I loved this drama, everything about it was absolutely PERFECT is EVERYWAY. I loved every single second. It was so exciting, funny, adorable, sympathetic, sad, melancholic, action-packed, fast paced yet soooo many details and just an absolute masterpiece. The story was like mind blowing, it felt so original and just soo good to watch. I guarantee butterflies every minute of the drama, either because of the romance, the adorable comedy, exciting suspense or the awesome action. This drama was a true masterpiece. The Cast have done a FANTASTIC job like the acting in this drama is phenomenal! Huge fan of the ML after this drama and the FL was just dazzling. The music. THE MUSIC WAS AMAZING AmAZiNg like absolutely brilliant, especially the bgm during the scenes where the ML is jumping on rooftops and the action sequences their bgms were absolutely brilliant. DEFINITELY rewatch worthy and I don't rewatch dramas but this drama was a classic. Overall ABSOLUTELY phenomenal masterpiece that is literally perfect in everyway with exciting action-packed-suspense, adorable romance, melancholic backstories and brilliant comedy!???️ ??❤️‍???‍???

Strong start but lacking ending

I won't lie. I'm kind of upset writing this review because I just finished the show, and the ending left me unsatisfied. It was a happy ending, but I expected so much more. There were questions unanswered, and some of the scenarios that happened in the show did not really get fixed. I also felt like some of the characters and their relationships should have been focused and delved into more. I do have to say that I loved the idea of this show (the whole night errand thing). All the main characters and their personalities were fun to watch. The action and fight scenes were exciting and fun. The actors did a phenomenal job and were the main reason I went back to keep watching. I only wish the storyline could have taken a better turn in the last half of the show. I still think everyone should check 'Healer' out because it's different from the typical K-dramas you see. It mixes action, comedy, drama, and romance, and it does a good job at it.

I hadn’t expected to watch this kdrama as it didn’t fall into the rom-com genre that I seem to really like but I couldn’t believe how quickly I got sucked into this one. Granted, I spent a lot of time with my finger on the FF button through the action scenes as I get anxious when people get hurt. But, it was such a great story line, with complex characters, and a wide cast of them. I really felt invested in the growth and healing of the two main leads. I loved the chemistry between them. It’s a bit ironic that The Healer took the name but actually needed to find healing for himself.

Some nice entertainment after a hard day's work? There you go, friends!

A nice series, exciting, thankfully without love triangle, with many quite funny little incidents. The beginning was perhaps a little bit boring.

Good action, good pace in each episode, only the rushed ending was a bit over the top. Individually, there were hardly any crooks to catch, despite a lot of clues/evidence, but all the bad guys at once? And the whole thing with the help of an intellectual low-water mark of a police officer, who knew only one suspect for 5 years: Healer!

But anyway: Happy ending, what more could you want, when the bad guys are after all of us!

PS.: Last but not least: Good actors.

Good but not amazing

Let me start by saying that it took me almost a whole year to finish this series. I honestly thought I wasn’t gonna finish it.

I love Ji Chang Wook, he’s on of my favorite actors which is why I was looking forward to this drama.

I’ll list the things that I loved before getting into the negatives.

I loved the actors, whether it’s the main ones or the supporting roles. They all did an amazing job and they fit their role extremely well.

The chemistry between Ji Chang Wook and Park Minyoung is amazing. I have yet to see her not have chemistry with the actor she plays with, seriously.

Now, what I didn’t like. I didn’t like how long and very redundant it was in the beginning. Like I said, it took me nearly a year to finish this series and to watch 5 episodes.

The drama started to get good only on episode 10 and for a drama with that many episodes as 20 it’s way too long to be honest. It should’ve gotten to the point a lot quicker and have much less filler episodes.

I didn’t like how confusing it got sometimes with the case about the farmers and about the elder and the older brother.

Lastly I didn’t like how so many questions got unanswered. I would’ve loved to see a real interaction of Young Shin with her mom knowing that her daughter is alive after all these years, we never got that.

I would’ve also loved to see why the older brother did what he did and how he was blackmailed more in detail.

We also don’t get to see how the bad guys got what they deserved, we only saw that they got denounced publicly and the ones at the airport got arrested but we should’ve seen them in jail or something, I don’t know I just personally wasn’t satisfied with just the news coverage.

That’s it for my rambling.

To end it, overall although it might look like I didn’t like this drama I enjoyed it quite a lot which is why I gave it an overall of 8.

Perfection

My favorite Kdrama ever. I'll never get over it and I'll probably rewatch (the scenes between the ML and FL) several times a year.

Full disclosure: I watch Kdramas for the romance, and the romance here is TOP NOTCH. The background story for this one is fine. It makes sense and as an action plot device is pretty good. Most of the time, the background story helped add tension to the romance, so I only fast-forwarded through the action plot scenes during the last 4 episodes when I finally got tired of them and felt like they weren't adding to the romance. (Usually, I'm fast-forwarding through the non-romance scenes starting with episode 3).

cute, angsty, adorable

This will go down in history as one of my all-time favorites. I regret not watching this sooner.

This may not have been my ji Chang Wook awakening, but I love him all the more for it. He is best boyfriend material.

I have to admit: it does take a second to get used to the old style of filming, but I LOVED IT. I wasn’t sure about it at first, BUT IT IS SO GOOD. THIS IS 100% A CLASSIC.

The romance was just everything. It was so good, and I love the Superman hidden identity of Healer. He’s so charismatic. It was just SO GOOD. I got addicted to the OST, and it brings an onslaught of feelings everytime I hear it.

“ITS A BEAUTIFUL FEELING ~”

I will be rewatching this drama every December because it was just so good. It was kind of(?) a slow burn, but that made the angst feel so much more angsty.

Park Min Young was absolutely adorable in this drama. I’ve only been used to her as a kept-together woman, but she was so cute in this. Her acting is so versatile, and I loved her in this. ONE THING THOUGH. They did her bad with the haircut in the second half. Her hair at the beginning was perfect, but they cut it too short later. It’s okay though, because she still rocks it.

Overall, I will keep this drama in my heart as a classic.

The emperor is naked

All the reviews praised this drama as 10/10 best thing ever, and with netflix taking it down in a couple of weeks, "Healer" arose interest from fans both old and new.

But is it worth the hype? Well, after seeing 5 episodes, I'm afraid to say....no, not really.

But first thing first. I realize I'm not a target audience. I expected a thriller with some love story, but instead I got love story with lots of melodrama and some thriller. Very little action.

The mc is batman-like hypercompetent gary stu, supported by super-hacker who can just hack anything in 3 seconds if she just looks at it through mc's magic super high tech glasses. No one must know his identity, which doesn't stop him from enlisting at news agency where he pretends to be a clumsy, stuttering dumbass in character development as old as Clark Kent.

There he falls in love with a girl he was originally paid to stalk. However, little does he know they are actually amnesiac childhood friends with childhood promise, and every single villain and side character they will encounter from now on is somehow connected to their past!

Oh did I mention that the first time they met in person the bus they were driving stopped too fast, and the female mc conveniently fell in Healer's embrace? Perhaps I also should mention that he's so hyper-competent at combat he can defeat multiple armed thugs at once, and parkour fast enough to catch up with a car. Oh, and of course, everyone takes notice of how handsome he is....

In other words, the story is full of tropes and cliches. It's fairly well-executed, as far as acting and production values and direction are concerned, at least based on these 5 episodes I've seen so far. But it's just....boring and predictable.

The FL is pretty cute, but so far, she's just been a clueless damsel in distress. Any sign of competence shown in the first episode went poof, she can't even notice she's being stalked by multiple people at the time.

And don't get me started on melodrama. I had to turn episode 5 off when FL's wheelchair-bound mother got the worst acted epilepsy attack I've seen in years just when the name of her amnesiac missing daughter was mentioned.

A Kdrama superhero tale lacking in budget, acting and originality.

I was hesitant to watch Healer because I always check the currently watching and dropped ratings for older dramas to get a feel for how well they've aged and it has some polarizing numbers: 7.85/10 for current and 5.25/10 for dropped. But I figured I'd give a shot because of its popularity.

It wasn't a total bust I wasn't wowed either. There's a good story in here somewhere but it feels too much like a tropey Kdrama knockoff of a Marvel franchise: OP parkour secret super hero ML and quirky cutesy sidekick FL team up to take down a cabal of corrupt old rich dudes involved in a far fetched conspiracy. I grew up with that comic book format and this brought nothing new to the table for me except the historical context, which I was more interested in than the romance.

Eventually I dropped it because even positive reviews agree the ending is haphazard and unsatisfying and 20 episodes is way too much time to spend for that kind of pay off.

Nauseating and cringy

I had high expectations about this show since reviews are glowing, but it's really weak.

I liked main actors too, they are alright. Plot through 5 episodes I watched is nothing special, kinda cliche, but not worst too.

But let me tell you about how awful production on this.

1) Stylistically it's really laughably corny at times, with hacker aestetic from late 90s early 00s which feels just lazy and outdated even for 2014, let alone for 2022. It's really hasn't aged very well.
2) Action scenes are funny, it's like worst of CW shows (Arrow, Flash etc). Lack of creativity and cringy editing.
3) Overall editing is atrocious, camera always jumps, even in casual scenes. There was a classic scene with work get together at a bar. And they filmed convo at the table with jump cuts on every line said.

Editing was a breaking straw for me and I dropped it on ep.5

Overrated is the only word to describe this show. Can't understand the hype at all. I understand they had to show background stories, but it was so boring. The plot is very loose and it is honestly a drag. I was patiently waiting for it to get a bit interesting, but nah! Maybe I am 1% of the population hating on this show, but seriously, this show is crap!
The finale was so rushed I didn't feel they had any closure. I was waiting for more to happen, for people to get punished and actually see their punishment, for something more. Anything that would change my opinion of the show. Nothing of the sort happened, wished I had passed on this show early.
