This is one of those very few korean dramas I will never forget. Everyone who's seen more than 10 kdramas knows that there are certain plot-twists/devices that are frequently used in dramas but 'Kill Me, Heal Me' was sooo different. Sure, some things will always be the same; the male protagonist is a chaebol, the female protagonist is poor and loud etc. but apart from this typical man/woman constellation, this drama was so fresh, new and EXCITING!
I don't want to get too much into detail but let me just say that Ji Sung is an extraordinary actor. All of his 7 personalities were s convincing. His acting wasn't awkward or ridiculous at all (which sadly is a frequently seen phenomena in kdramas) and his female counterpart played along really well. I also loved that the male and female lead had a good relationship and genuinly liked each other. You would think that that's a given for a couple but no, it really isn't in kdramas.
Some minor points of criticism: Omega's "romantic" storyline was a little bothersome, the constant repetition of the same flashbacks got old after a while and I felt the ending was lacking something as the last episode felt very rushed (even if the ending was realistic).
To sum it up, the plot was incredibly interesting, the acting was superb and the drama stayed good from episode 1-20 which is very rare! I would recommend this drama to anybody who likes dramatic plotlines and is not looking for the typical romance love-triangle or revenge-plot.
