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it's really laughably corny at times, with hacker aestetic from late 90s early 00s which feels just lazy and outdated even for 2014, let alone for 2022.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

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.

Better dramas to watch
Unfortunately if I'm not hooked from the first episode then that's it.Despite having watched many, many kdramas I haven't yet watched a JCW so decided to pick one out based on the reviews. Initially the concept was good.. but when too many other characters became involved, with their own unimportant flashbacks, the show lost me from that point onwards. Just something about it just irked me and I quickly lost interest. I am sure it will get better and feature JCW more prominently but I'd rather spend my time on a drama that grabs my attention quickly and leaves me wanting more and more. The Healer failed to heal me.

No. I don't want to watch Korean take on a bad combination of "Alias" and "NCIS".
Maybe I'm missing out on some later developments in character, but at the moment, everyone comes across like a cardboard cutout

A big disappointment !
Whenever I was looking for a new drama to watch, I was never interested in this drama before. But I was intrigued after I saw that it has an 8,9 average rating here, on MDL... which is usually (IMPO) a good quality indicator about a show, unlike the Viki reviews that are a little bit less "selective".So, I started watching it. Really not what I expected. It's moving very slowly and doesn't make much sense to me. The acting is terrible. I couldn't watch more than 3 episodes.
I give it a 5 out of respect for the cast and crew. Thank you for your efforts.
