Healer has a deep and long plot that will probably leave you confused and filled with questions in the beginning. But at the story progresses, every little detail will be explained, and it'll leave you with a satisfying ending with no loose ends. Healer's story was one that was planned very well throughout, and everything that happens in it are linked together so spectacularly that it just makes you think how a drama could be planned so well.
ACTING/CAST -
Really, each character was played very well. Jung Hoo was an amazing male lead who was strong, smart, and also funny. Chae Young Shin was a character that didn't take long for me to grow fond of - her quirkiness and inability to stop talking was adorable. I think Moon Ho's acting was golden. I didn't understand his character in the beginning, but it's all explained very well as the drama progresses.
The only flaw for me was probably at one point, every time Chae Young Shin appeared in the drama, it was just her crying or appearing really needy. It was so frustrating that I couldn't help rolling my eyes every time she showed on screen. However, this period of needy Young Shin was fairly short and was easily brushed off.
MUSIC -
I don't have much to say about the music since I don't really pay attention to it, since I'm mostly focused on the drama. However, the music for Healer was really good and fit the scenes really well.
REWATCH VALUE -
The reason why I gave the rewatch value a 4 is because I generally don't rewatch any dramas, especially if they are plot-heavy and long. I will probably never rewatch Healer again, but if I have a lot of spare time, I might give it a try.

Anyway,I just started watching Korean drama during summer break. I watched 5 so far, and rhey all had good revies and rating (I always make sure I don't waste my time watching the bad ones, so I read reviews and rating first before I actually invest 20 something hours on the movie. This one Ichose after I watched City Hunter and many reviews on this site actually mentioned that Healer is better than City Hunter. So I gave it a try. And thank goodness I did.
In short, this the only Korean movies that I watched that made me laugh constantly, made me said 'cool! I like her!' (I am talking about Jin Ma and Healer little sister), shiffer to the bones (with the romance scenes), and (this one is rare for me) cry. I fast forwarded some of the scenes in City Hunter but Healer kept me hooked untuk 3 am in the morning that I finished this movie in 1 weekend.
Watch this movie. trust me. It's that good.

HOWEVER
Other than that plot hole, this show is superb. The writer has great attention to minor details and I found myself impressed how those little minor details make up the bigger picture. Park Min Young and Yoo Ji Tae were great here but Ji Chang Wook was phenomenal on this show. The way in which Ji Chang Wook was able to convey so much emotion in his eyes for each of the different persona he takes on is far beyond me. There are also no typical Korean drama cliches such as noble idiocy or too many deaths. I understand the comparison between this show and City Hunter is inevitable but both are solid shows on their own. This show exceeded all expectations of a Korean drama and raised the bar even higher. I've been watching korean dramas since 2004 and this is the one to beat.

If I could give this drama more than a 10 I would.Where does one begin on how awesome this drama is?
First the music. Awesome I have the sound track.
Now to the story and characters.
The story line is awesome from the beginning to the end. The twist of fate that you see come to life is freaking amazing. The chemistry between the cast members is awesome. You could not have ask for a better cast to play each character role.
This was my first drama of seeing Ji Chang Wook, (Seo Jung Hoo / Park Bong Soo ("Healer") all I can say is freaking awesome. Loved him from the beginning.
Park Min Young (Chae Yeong Shin / Oh Ji An) loved her. The chemistry between her and Ji Chang Wook was awesome.
The supporting cast unbelievable awesome job. Their not much you can say without putting spoilers in the review.
It is a must see if you haven't already...

Not a worthy of 8.9 rating
Frankly speaking I am big fan of Rachel Park.I am not telling this is a bad drama but it is not worthy of 9 pointer. I have seen so many silly blunders, immature direction and unrealistic decisions.
1. There are so many characters but no characters has proper ending(except ML and FL).
2. I got confused and annoyed whether the FL is really had feelings ( love ) with ML or just a gratitude for saving her number of times, because it is portrayed before ML she is in deep love with ML but she didn’t trust him in some situations, instead she keeps on avoiding him keep him away from her.
3. There were so many bad characters but it is not clear whether or what punishment they got.
4. I think the director didn’t do planned or homework well, because simply wasted time on unnecessary things or so many characters and stories but no story is properly finished or ended but simply rushed to the ending.
5. I can’t say their chemistry is ultimate because as a couple they spent very less time compared to as working partners.
6. The main positive thing in this drama is the cast, everyone’s acting skills are unbelievable, especially the FL acting was beyond my expectations, because before watching this I have watched some of her dramas I thought this is very old drama her acting skills may not be as good as the new ones but I got surprised, I can say her acting in this drama is the best one compared to city hunter and others.
I am stopping here, I can point out few more mistakes but I don’t want because I have seen much worse dramas but this is not that much bad. I can assure you that if you watch this drama you won’t get bored or disappointed but if you watch this drama seriously you will feel the same as I mentioned in the above.

Boy, what a disappointment.
Healer is... mediocre.Now, it's possible I'm not the target audience. And it's possible I expected more from this series than it promised. That being said, I dont think I've ever been this disappointed in a series before.
The plot is solid. Cute romance, intriguing mystery. Cool.
However, it is so horribly stretched out. 20 hours for something that could have been 5. It seems the writers put in absolutely every scene they wanted to, without ever considering if they drove the story forwards. It means that moments that should be dramatic end up losing all of their significance, because with 10 hours left of the show you get the feeling it's all going to be irrelevant. And it means that while the series is technically a "thriller", you feel about as much thrill as going 10 km/h at a highway.
As for the "action" element, these scenes were hugely disappointing as well. The use of stunt men during parkour and fight scenes was so jarring that I was genuinely laughing out loud. Don't worry, though, there are only about 5 fight scenes in the entire show, though the main character does do a lot of unnecessary parkour.
Add to that possibly the worst soundtrack I have ever heard in my life. What felt like less than 5 songs were played at seemingly every opportunity, until they were grating at my ears. Thus, even the important scenes related to the (solid) plot were ruined for me.
There are good things to this show (after all, I did finish it). But the negatives for me weigh up to something that I cannot justify giving anything above 6.
That being said, go watch it. You'll probably love it.

My short summary :
- This drama is packed with all that good stuff: comedy, tragedy, action, romance, kickass fighting - everything that is best in drama field!
- Ji Chang Wook character makes all the ladies sway
- Young Shin is perfect hero: cute, brave, smart and unique but with flaws like every human being
- the main leads chemistry makes simple hand-touching like porn
- the plot is magnificent, the conection with every character well convey, without unnecessary chaos and overflow of information about every aspect of drama. Everything here is important and everything connect so well with each other!
- touching the subject of coruption and manipulation in media and politics
- and least but not last lets give a round of applouse for the most badass ahjumma with fire-hacker skills! (without her, they all would die)
I cannot reccoment it enough, I'm sure every drama lover will find in this series something for themselves. Just give it a try!

I will start off with the OST. I rarely pay attention to the OST because they dont seem to catch my attention ;). This time though I realy felt like listening it over and over.
The acting was realy great (imo). From the lead actors to the supporting ones all played their role pretty well so it was a joy to watch.
And the story. Nice twist and turns, some unexpected things. Aaaaaaahh the joy not being able predict everything is great!
I realy recommend watching this one.

Healer really lived up to the hype and I agree with many of the viewers here that it felt fresh and had a nice mix of comedy, action, intrigue and drama. The chemistry between Ji Chang Wook and Park Min Young was amazing and natural (did they not kiss more than usual compared to other serials??). The pacing of the story was tight with enough little twists to keep it interesting. I did like the fact that the love "triangle" was between Healer and the Park Bong Soo alter ego. It was both funny and bittersweet to see them try to make sense of their emotions. After all love is frequently less about logic but relying on your heart and your senses to tell you what your brain cannot.
I'm now a new fan of Ji Chang Wook (sorry PBG, still love you, but his Healer character is way cooler) and am now eager to suss out his other dramas. Suggestions on which ones to watch first are welcomed!
