Specifically, it's actually a webtoon/manhwa-based drama, not really manga because that would refer to Japanese comics

Omgggg, Healer is literally my hands down favourite unquestionable 10/10 drama of all-time!!

The TA is extremely infuriating indeed! He always seek culpability in others, constantly blaming everyone for his less fortunate lifestyle and fruitless relationship.. He's the type of annoying person who always has something negative and depressing to say!

Agreed, and in all honesty, it would just be too boring if Jung's character was 120% pristine perfect! It's good to see that he has flaws albeit slightly messed up and low key sadistic haha~ and yes, needless to say, his and Seol's relationship is rather special because the two are so alike yet they are the complete polar opposites; they're the perfect dynamic ahah~ unfortunately, although Seol has tried to talk some sense into him, I think it's just a part of Jung's nature to act the way he does (manipulative and cunning) subconsciously.

Your theory is actually very plausible! If you've read the original webtoon on Naver, there was a later chapter which contained a childhood flashback of Jung and his classmates who visited his home for a class project. One of his classmates went overboard and accidentally upset Jung. Knowing Jung, he obviously didn't let the kid off easy. He secretly had his revenge through his own devious ways (cunning since a very young age, just like your theory!) But little did Jung know, his father witnessed the whole thing and since then, I think his father started to become more aware about him. During the flashback, Jung's father portrayed a warm and welcoming fatherly figure so I agree, he probably became more strict in order to carefully raise Jung - which probably backfired because even till is day, Jung never understood why his actions were deemed as abnormal by other people since he had never been told/properly reprimanded (in fact, he hated how Seol alienated him for it).

I have mixed feelings about this drama, hmm.. People have been saying that the quality of KBS(2) dramas haven't been on par recently and I sort of agree.. This drama had potential but it was still quite cringeworthy throughout the episodes so far. At first, quite a lot of people were criticising about the casts' acting ability and I didn't mind then but now it's pretty evident to the extent some scenes get very awkward and cringey.. Nonetheless, I thoroughly enjoyed the romantic development hehe! Rooting for them!

And you'd think that technology is supposed to be advanced now that we're entering 2016 LOL. it's always the goddamn butterfly's!!

Thank you!! But unfortunately the video has already been taken down..

There's more creepiness coming from her soon!! And even moooore creepiness from the other shady characters, you'll be in for a surprise!!

I think it's also important to emphasise that, Seol's dad does not support her receiving higher education because he has a somewhat backward/old-fashioned mindset. Like Seol briefly mentioned, her dad would spoil Jun much more because he is the only male child of the family, hence a lot of money was spent towards sending Jun to study abroad. This created a disequilibrium in their relationship because Seol never received the recognition and love and attention she deserved for her immense hard work and achievements. Her dad is far too prideful which shaped Seol's character to be the Seol we know - diligent and overachieving in the expense of hard work and sacrifice but never acknowledged by others (unless it's for their own selfish reasons).

I wouldn't consider it a plot hole, it's just the style of the story. In the original webtoon, there are occasional flashbacks that appear somewhat out of timeline or doesn't fit the readers' expectations which makes it appear more intriguing. The webtoon drops crucial flashbacks here and there to emphasise the contrasting difference between the old (when Seol and Jung shared common dislike for each other) and current time (somehow ended up dating despite all their past misunderstandings). It adds tension for the audience because it makes it very questionable as to why and how their relationship drastically changed overtime. It may seem weird and out of place, but it creates a mysterious, somewhat chilling vibe to the drama!

By stalker, I think you're confusing with the "landowner's grandson". Not sure whether to consider him as a stalker but he's definitely the real culprit to the neighbourhood panty theft but he pushed the blame onto Joo Yong by hiding the stolen undergarments in his room. He appeared again in the preview for episode 7+8 because Seol caught him. As for the stalker guy, I think they were referring to the red-haired guy who used to attend the same university as Seol and Jung. His character was famous on campus for becoming obsessed with girls and adopting stalker tendencies. I forgot the details but basically there was a huge misunderstanding which lead him into believing that Seol liked him which was completely untrue. It all got messy and eventually he took time off from uni and hence disappeared for awhile. The webtoon emphasised it more but the drama skimmed over it so it can be very confusing to non-readers of the webtoon.

I never thought I would ever say this in my lifetime but Cheese in the Trap is the sole reason why I'm actually excited for Monday's LOL. Can't wait for episode 7+8!! Seems like there is going to be a lot of drama and tension and frustration next week!

LOOOOOL, ME FOR SURE.

After watching the preview at the end of episode 6, I hope that hinted towards something about Min Soo's character change in the drama! The drama didn't give away anything about Hong Seol's younger brother so it may turn out that the adaption will not follow through with the minor specific details about Jun. Absolutely can't wait for episode 7 and 8!

I've also read the webtoon too and even the original version on naver but I can't seem to recall what particular scene you're referring to? Please tell me (under a spoiler tag) because I'm actually really intrigued LOL.

Sorry, I should have tagged the original comment as a spoiler but yes, there definitely is a connection between them! Although Min Soo seems nonexistent now, her character plays an important role later once they introduce Hong Seol's little brother (who, in the webtoon, was supposed to be studying abroad). This drama is definitely getting more interesting! I hope it remains faithful to the original webtoon!

Will they ever clear Joo Yong's accusation? And I'm also anticipating for the upcoming arc with Min Soo and Hong Seol's younger brother.. Not sure whether I'm excited or dreading it.. I can sense a lot of drama and tension in that one..

Has anyone found a link to watch this yet?

Sakaguchi Kentaro!! I'll definitely be following this series although I'm a bit hesitant with people speculating that it'll be a melodrama.. Ah..
