Healer (2014)

One of the best dramas

This is far and away one the best k-dramas ever! It has everything a successful drama should have, including an interesting storyline, plenty of action, suspense, romance, secrets to unravel, a great OST and a wonderful cast of characters. "Eternal Love" is one of the best songs ever in a drama. As the story unfolds it takes you through the history of a group of friends and how love, jealousy, betrayal and greed destroys them and later effects those who are left behind. The two male leads are major hotties and pure pleasure to watch. It is sure to make your top ten list! Don't miss it!

Where can I start.... watching healer was a rollercoaster of emotions. After finishing the show rather than feeling satisfied, I felt myself wanting more, asking more questions and wondering what happened that wasn't shown. Skip to the very end for my thoughts on the things that I wasn't pleased with.

Healer is a very interesting watch with a really unique concept. At first strange, but then the story grows on as the episodes pass by. I practically only watched the first half of the show (first 10 episodes) as sort of like a formality. Although I knew the story and understood the intricacies of the situation, I just couldn't bring myself to care. I didn't care for any of the characters or the relationships that were lost or those that were forming, watching the show was just a way to pass time. In the second half though, circumstances change and there are important things at stake, that's what really brings the story to life. Even then, I felt as though the only thing I cared about was the relationship between the two leads, but as time goes on, the rest of the story becomes just as important. The actors were really charismatic and took on the roles really well, but of course, honorary shout out to Ji Chang-wook.

The OST was nice too but nothing special, not very memorable. In conclusion, I would recommend Healer as: a good watch but you really need patience to get to the good part.

SPOILERS (only for those who have watched it)
As I said before, the show ended in a good way but I also felt a bit unsettled, here's why;
- Why weren't we ever shown things from the perspective of Kim Moon-sik? (Kim Mun-ho's hyung) You could clearly tell that he wasn't necessarily a bad person and there were reasons for the things he did. E.g; what led him to join forces with Boss? Why was he so persistnet on having Myung-hee all to himself? Also, we never saw what happened to him at the end, just a half-arsed scene where he was drunk. Regardless of whether he was a good person or not, he needed to be punished for his wrongdoings but that was never shown or even alluded to in the end?????
- This is also related to the previous point; What is Mun-ho's and Moon-sik's backstory? How did two brothers end up being completely opposite people, did they face abuse as children? Who are their parents?
- What led Ajumma to that stage in her life? They started to show a backstory but then just ignored it.
- Why was it so important for Healer's mom to abandon him as a child? Who threatened her and why?

I know I'm somewhat reaching but these are just the little things that bothered me, not to the point that it stopped me from enjoying the show though. I just don't like it when writers aren't able to fully portray the situation their characters are in. Anyways Healer is a really clever story and an enjoyable drama.

I loved everything about this drama and Ji Chan wook is just love
Plot ,actors ,everything on point
It's worth the hype

But I felt the ending was rushed
There were things I didn't understand
Such as if Myong hee knew she was her daughter and If she did then why no confrontation?

What happened to elder?

What happened to moon shik?

If detective and hacker ended up together?

What happened to hacker madam work?( Her office was destroyed)

Why was little Ji an in an house when she was caught and who beat her and why didn't kill her?

Why exactly healer revealed his face and identity in an interview form in the last episode?

Is he is still working at someday news if not why he was clicking pictures of Ji an while reporting?

If he is still a reporter there then did they explain to their colleagues his real identity!!

It wasn't clear if healers father commit suicide because he was convicted wrongly or was killed for having prove against them?

I guess no matter how much messy the drama is, the last episode must always be summed up.. every main character has to has a proper ending to its part...but here it wasn't even done to healer, the main lead!!

The ending was something really rash and choppy and I have no idea why...there were questions unanswered but otherwise the series is worth the hype and its amazing

I specifically loved moon ho character...handsome rational cunning and passionate lover

Give it a watch..if you don't mind the last episode

The plot was simply amazing, the casting simply amazing I liked pretty much everything about it but the main female character.
I mean, it still worth watching, no regrets at all, the plot was simply smart and amazing.
It had little bit of everything I like in dramas. Action, smart plot, surprises, romance. And I won't be hypocrite, the main actor is
simply stunning. Gosh, sometimes I had to re watch  some scenes because I was lost admiring his beauty haha I'm so futile with guys I admit.
I didn't give it a 10 because of the female main character. I won't lie, she was kind of useless.
I have a problem with too weak female characters like her. She was simply there to cry and be a victim of the situations.
I didn't like her at all. The acting of the actress was pretty good, the problem is the character itself. Is too weak crying good for nothing, always
holding healer back and never helping with anything.
I don't like characters like this. But, still not liking I have loved watch this drama.
Aside that only thing I didn't like it was pretty good.
And I just can't ignore how the character healer was almost perfect in everything. I mean, he's good acting, the character itself and how
handsome that guy are. I would re watch this just in order the see his pretty talented face all over again. hahah

Healing

"Healer" is an electrifying drama that has me utterly captivated, earning a resounding 9.5 stars out of 10 on my personal scale. I've found myself indulging in its exhilarating narrative multiple times, each rewatch revealing new layers of intrigue and emotion. From heart-racing action sequences to heartwarming connections, the show weaves a magnetic tale that keeps me hooked from start to finish.

Ji Chang-wook's portrayal of the enigmatic Healer is an absolute tour de force, seamlessly oscillating between the stoic and vulnerable sides of his character. His undeniable chemistry with Park Min-young, who plays the fiercely independent Chae Young-shin, adds an extra layer of charm to the show. Together, they create a dynamic duo that sparks with energy.

The writing is a masterpiece, intricately crafting a web of mystery and suspense, while also delving into the complexities of human emotions. With its perfect blend of heart-pounding action, heartwarming moments, and heart-wrenching dilemmas, "Healer" succeeds in transporting me into its world.

The meticulously designed sets and attention to detail immerse me into the streets of Seoul, making every scene feel vibrant and authentic. The seamless transitions between the past and present add an element of intrigue, keeping me on the edge of my seat.

"Healer" isn't just a drama; it's an experience. It's a symphony of emotions that resonates deeply with my soul. With its stellar cast, gripping plot, and flawless execution, "Healer" shines as a shining gem in the realm of Korean dramas. If you haven't embarked on this thrilling journey yet, be prepared to be swept away into a world of secrets, love, and unbreakable bonds."

i don't know how to describe this drama but I'm really interesting with the storyline.. i don't really understand the story but the storyline make me to looking forward to another episode. the ending is too rushing.. i was like WHAT? so what really happen.. i need to rewatch again but i don't think so.. action drama is not my taste actually... i like how the romance is not really over like other cliche drama. the best of this drama is the old lady being a professional hacker.. the main cast, park minyoung and ji Chang wook acting are on another level.. chemistry is on point.. the old lady as hacker and literally all the cast are so good

This is one of the very few Korean dramas I've watched. I usually don't watch Korean dramas if the story doesn't get me really hooked. After watching the first episode of this drama I didn't really expect much, but the reviews were good so I kept watching and at the end it went beyond my expectation. I didn't think I'd like this story this much.

The story, actions scenes, romance, relationship between people and the suspense, everything about this drama were perfect. The music was really good. The cast did a very good job, the actors acted very realistically, one thing I really love about this drama is there are not any unnecessary drama or misunderstandings, they sorted out things fast, that way they could focus on the main story well.

Overall, this is a totally recommended drama, watch it!! It won't disappoint you.

If you’re thinking of wether or not to watch this Kdrama, just do it. Watch it. Trust me it’s worth it. The story? Never gets boring. The cast? Amazing. This drama made me a HUGE fan of Ji-Chang Wook and the girl protagonist, whose name I can’t recall, but she was a great actor as well. Moreover, their chemistry was one of the best I’ve ever seen. It had real depth and layers to it that other kdramas fall short of. Your heart will really clench for these two throughout the show. All in all, healer is in my top ten (maybe even number 1) on my best kdrama list. It really has everything you could ask for in a kdrama and I’m sad I watched it so fast.

Romance, Suspense, Action with a Fantabulous Story ❤️❣️

Just loved it! It is fast paced throughout the drama. Omg! Ji Chang-Wook ❤️❤️❤️ Action is his forte, can just see that.... but man his smile, his eyes and he is just so handsome... can be drooling over him throughout. The variation he brings between two characters shows he can pull-off both the roles so well. The chemistry between the main leads is daebak! Also, the trio, Healer, Chae yeong-sin and Kim Mun-ho were good together... liked Ms. Jo (hacker Ajumma) too.

Coming to the plot, what an intriguing plot I must say. It has Romance, Suspense and Action with a fantabulous story. Finding romance in action dramas are a bit difficult but this one focuses on romance and the story, and has very few action sequences which I liked. Just that..last episode was a bit rushed..it could have had atleast one episode more so that we could enjoy more of healer. Nevertheless, the story on the whole is worth a watch.

I really enjoyed this show! The characters were nice, the story line was pretty good too! The actors did a good job. I really loved thier chemistry too THEY WERE SO CUTE.
The music was lacking tbh, the osts were average, didn't particularly love any.
I have a few opinions about the story though some episodes didn't keep me interested..until the 10th episode I guess I had to force myself to watch. But the last few episodes kept me alert at all times! Logic,i really didn't understandhow he was walking around without a mask and nobody recognized him
Highly recommended

After watching the show what's wrong with secretary Kim in 2017 I became a big fan of Park Min Young and after I finished it I wanted to find other shows that I can watch her in and Healer was the first recommendation and has become my favorite kdrama of all time. After finishing it I became emotionally attached to Park Min Young and also became a new fan of Ji Chang wook. I love everything in this show like the romance, comedy, action scenes, suspense, thriller, the jaw-dropping moments, the heartwarming moments, the acting and mostly the music. This show may have not been my first to watch as a kdrama but it has became my gateway into watching more shows for the 3 years that I have been watching kdramas.
