This show has everything that you could be looking for in a K-Drama!

This is my 12th K-drama, and I don't think that I will find one that I like more. It has the right about of romance, action, comedy, and mystery to keep you watching. The romance was sweet and sincere, and his jealousy (not too much) was adorable. The fight scenes were awesome and I love watching a guy who can take of things! This is an absolute must watch, and I don't know what took me so long. I usually like romantic comedies, and seriously, without being the major focus, their romance is one of my favs!

JCW and KMK Duo Forever

Starring Ji Chang Wook and Kim Mi Kyung absolutely delivering “loved ones in every lifetime” vibes. This was such a fun role to see KMK take on after being introduced to her through her motherly character in Welcome to Samdal-ri. She absolutely bodied it and I’m thoroughly impressed.

BIG fan of the overarching plot and getting to view all of it from the perspective of a gutsy reporter with integrity. I think viewing it from a journalism lens allows us to be more honest about corruption in the justice system and the story is so much better for it. Bonus points for villains that were truly despicable and slimy enough to make you nauseous. It’s extremely easy to see why this receives so much praise.

Best drama of Ji Chang Wook for me! His chemistry with Park Min Young is very natural. I have a bias with good-looking main characters, so whenever they're on-screen, I can't help but fall in love with them.
Love the hacker, ahjumma! I wish I have a genius friend like her, who loves knitting and gimbap lol. And Reporter Kim Mun Ho is sooo handsome! This is the first time I've liked an "older" character. His eyes are very expeessive, so his role as a passionate reporter suits him perfectly. I was just slightly disappointed with the ending, since it did not show what exactly happened with Kim Mun Sik, Yeong Sin's mother, and Boss. It may just be me, but I always like to see what happened with everyone on the last episode. If I compare this to a book, I'd describe it as a page-turner! I spent 4 sleepless nights ????

An emotional rollercoaster ride and it was sooooo good! ML is beyond cute and played this part so well. The sad scenes, they tug at your heart. He knocked this roll out of the park!

The FL was not a passive, follow 10 ft behind, kind of girl. You will laugh with her, cheer her on, feel sad when she's sad, and enjoy seeing the two fall in love.

The supporting cast, loved them and the mystery behind everything may come to light, but what an interesting ride.

YES, IT'S RE-WATCH MATERIAL! ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

I tried and failed to like this lol.

This was very mid for me I’m not gonna lie. I have never been one for action-heavy plots but I was hoping the one in this drama would be interesting enough to keep my attention since it was so highly rated by pretty much anyone I spoke to. Overall, while I did enjoy the dynamic between our main leads, I cared very little about the central action plot, and once it took over the whole storyline, I pretty much checked out of the drama and watched the rest at 2x speed. I can see why this could be someone’s favorite, and I can’t find any glaring issues with this drama besides my own personal lack of interest and a very weirdly rushed ending. Happy watching if this is your thing!

I can't count how many times I've watched Healer, haha! That shows you how really good it is! I watched it just recently again this year, and it did not fail to impress me once more. Ji Chang Wook and Park Min Young are such great actors! I really enjoyed their Chemistry! Also I also loved the action scenes too! Their Original Soundtrack too were really nice. If you're a Ji Chang Wook fan, and you have not watched this drama yet then you better start binge watching it, because trust me, you'll not regret it!
Above all, I really enjoyed watching Healer💙💜

Dragged it out in the end, what started as an interesting drama ended up being a drag in the end. I literally cudnt wait for it to end. Enjoyed the initial few episodes. Reduced number of episodes with crisper writing & ending wud have helped hold the interest. The last episode seemed like the creators suddenly remembered drama needs to end & hurriedly finished it. I would have loved it if the ajjumma character had been explored a bit more, also the myung hee-moon shik story didn't get the ending it deserved considering the build-up that story was given. Loved the characters, music & fashion. The winter wears were definitely to die for. A one time must watch.

As a huge fan of Ji Chang-wook's acting, I must say this is one of his best roles. The story is amazing, the chemistry between the leads is off the charts and the action is jam-packed. If you enjoy action films, like the Bourne series, or Chang-wook's other series K2 - this is a great show.

I was blown away by the soundtrack and still listen to it years after I watched it - it's that good. If you love the action hero turned lover trope, this is for you!

I know some folks have likely criticized the plot length or some of the acting, but I feel that the storyline is very coherent and engaging for any action fan. I really appreciated the detailed stunts done and how the drama constantly has you on the edge of your seat.

Amazing storytelling, tight and intense

This drama introduced me to Ji Chang-Wook and he quickly became my favorite actor! The storytelling is tightly knit and leaves no room for major holes. The villain is bounced back and forth, it's not the basic bad guy, rather someone with flaws that make them overall human. The emotion that PMY and JCW portrayed was fantastic, and I'd say one of the best couples in a drama series ever! Swoony action scenes are heavily incorporated, which was great! Also Hacker Ahjumma is probably my favorite character outside of the main two, Kim Mi-Kyung did an amazing job!

Probably the most mature drama I've watched so far

Yeah, it falls into some silly tropes and, let's call it, faux drama/tension, but at the same time knows when to stop before you start gritting your teeth and rolling your eyes at it all. Not only that, I think it handles it perfectly, as if to oppose the standard drama formula.
The romance is beautifully crafted and made me squeal shamelessly into my pillow.
I'm particularly impressed with the character Kim Moon Ho, his personality and complexity.

I'm so relieved to say there's no love triangle. Just this deserves a high score on its own.
The ending felt a bit weird and went into directions I didn't really enjoy, but at least it had a proper ending.
A few characters didn't get enough of a resolution in my opinion. In particular Kim Moon Shik as I really enjoyed watching him and all his layers and wish there was a little bit more time for him, especially towards the end.

I am really surprised
This Drama is the best

You will watch first episode or also second episode but you will not like it but then you will see it continuously  

Actors were so professionals to deliver the idea and feelings.

I really suggest this Drama to be the 1st suggested Drama. 

I’m disappointed that it’s bad events were too much and the ending was unfair in my opinion. 

But the romantic side I liked it  

The Drama covered many aspect of the event so you will understand why it happens. 


Overall I gave it 10/10
