I was first interested because I thought that psychological drama would offer something deep and interesting, and also because the synopsis sounded like a thought provoking drama that would go deeper into things. But that was all false.

Story: First the story and the idea were promising. I was looking forward to how the plot would progress. But as I was watching, I just grew more and more bored. The whole idea just vanished somewhere in the middle, and it felt like the writer just forgot what they were even trying to say. I don't even remember what the underlying idea was, since it's been so long since there was any kind of purpose. There was no idea anymore, and I was left watching two most unoriginal characters falling in love (in most uninteresting way). Which brings me to the next thing ...

Characters: Flat and boring. No dimensions anywhere. There was nothing to wonder or think about. All the characters lacked defining character traits. I was hoping some kind of moral conflict with the main character regarding this whole thing that happened. But she was just annoyingly goodie goodie the whole time. They could've played a lot more with the characters and the plot. There was nothing really memorable about the characters. ESPECIALLY the main characters. Actually, the most interesting character was the villain, even though he lacked personality too. I don't think there was anything wrong with the actors or acting, it's just that the characters were really uninteresting. At least second lead's couple had some interesting conflict and interactions, but the main couple were whining about who gets to keep a flower or who sleeps on the sofa. Please.

More about the story: Some scenes were almost comical, even though they were supposed to be serious. I couldn't take it seriously, and I was just left rolling eyes confusingly. Dramas don't have to be necessarily realistic, but at least make them believable. This drama didn't even try to make sense. And ohmylife, the unnecessary scenes that didn't play any type of role in the plot... This drama just made staring at the walls interesting. There were some nice scenes, mainly at the beginning, but the latter half just ruined the wholeness.

I just hope every single drama writer could adopt this simple rule to their daily lives: if it doesn't take the plot forward, DON'T ADD THAT SCENE. But I guess they have a certain amount of time that has to be filled... But then you should use your IMAGINATION. Ahhh, whatever. I'm so done with this. I'm so done. Cheers to this ''amazing'' drama.

And what was that stupid cliche ending? After all this disappointment, you go and disappoint me even more with your meaningless supposedly philosophical discovery about how meaning of life is to live and be happy? I mean... Just wow, I have never witnessed this type of genius before.
Of course every drama don't have to make me re think everything I know about life, but at least don't pretend to be deep and BE ENTERTAINING. This was just boring. And just like I said earlier, made staring at the walls interesting. I already discovered the many shades of white my walls have that I never knew about before watching this drama.

Since this review has been so negative, should I say something positive too? Hmm... Good looking cast?

I feel like Healer tried to be deep and something serious, but ended up being completely shallow.

Story:
Yeah, the story is the worst thing with this. It sucked. Too typical. Too boring. So unoriginal, nothing interesting here. There was absolutely NOTHING surprising. Only interesting thing was the flashbacks and the ''villain''. I would have preferred to watch a drama of the flashbacks' story, instead of this. Flashbacks were really the only thing to keep this going. And even the most interesting parts would have been boring in a really interesting and good drama. This drama was only about falling in love (in a boring way) and some stupid plot about the characters' past that I don't even remember anymore.

Characters/Cast:
Yeah, nothing interesting to see here either. Boring characters, but the actors were somewhat good. And Ji Chang Wook looked handsome, so that's good I guess. Especially Yoo Ji Tae's character, why did we even need him? Unnecessary. He was maybe the most uninteresting character here. Compared to him, even Ji Chang Wook's and Park Min Young's characters seemed good. There were some fun comedic scenes with the supporting characters though, but that's it.

Music:
I actually liked the music. Catchy... And some of them got stuck in my head even. But they became annoying after awhile.

Rewatch value:
How about no.

I was interested because of the genres ''action'' and ''thriller''. Action scenes were fun, but I don't know why this has been listed as a thriller.

I can't even believe how high rating this has gotten, but hey, whatever floats your boat. Not judging.
