WORTH WATCHING SHOW
Kill Me Heal MeGenre: psychological, Rom-Com, Mystery
Excellent show with great acting, intriguing & heart-touching storyline, beautiful chemistry btw the lead pair, amazing OST especially Auditory hallucination (chef's kiss). Ji Sung's acting is phenomenal. How amazingly he played 7 different characters in this drama and switched his expressions, eye movements, and body posture when he turned into a different personality. He's such a versatile actor Hands down!! This show will make you laugh at one second and will make emotional at another second. This show is worth watching and add it to my favorite list.

Love will heal what's killing you inside.
I'm so glad that this drama exists. And I would never know that Ji Sung is an amazing actor if I didn't watch this one. I mean he's damn cool , how did he portray all 7 personalities I don't know but he was truly Daebak! Even Park Seo-joon was cool too and I have to say the interaction between Park and Ji Sung as Oh Ri-On and Ahn Yo-na in the cafe was a chef's kiss. The plot is well-written and the OST - Auditory Hallucination - still my most fav OST. Ji Sung has a great chemistry with Hwang Jung-eum but the FL's voice is quite irritating in some scenes. Anyways, I don't wanna give any spoilers, you'll never regret if you watch the show and if you don't watch it, you have a long way to go as a K-drama fan.Fun fact: Both Lee Seung Gi and Hyun Bin were offered the role of Cha Do-hyun (name of the ML in series), but declined. I'm glad they did. Nobody could play this role other than Ji Sung and he proved it well.

Acting;
Ji Sung (Cha Do-hyun):
If not for Ji Sung's acting, this show would have fallen flat for me. How can he make me miss him while I'm watching him?? Many times, I was longing for Cha Do-hyun while watching Shin Se-gi and vice versa. He took on each of the seven roles so well and brought the story to life. His acting is soooo believable.
Hwang Jung-eum (Oh Ri-jin)
She's not a bad actress, just very unpleasant to watch for the most part. She's so extra and is incapable of portraying any emotion without moving every muscle in her face, I don't want to call it overacting because she is a good actress but I just couldn't stand this character and her quirks.
Park Seo-joon (Oh Ri-on/ Omega/ Oh Hwi)
I'm coming to realise that I may not love Seo-joon that much as an actor, more so just an individual. Or maybe I don't like the roles he takes on. Out of four dramas that I've watched him in, I only liked his character in Fight for my way. He was really good in this drama and Hwarang too but I just didn't like his characters in either. I understand he feels obligated to be Ri-jin's protector but why is he constantly lurking behind her like a shadow? It's just off-putting.
In general, the only other outstanding actors apart from Ji Sung that come to mind are Ri-jin and Ri-on's parents.
Length;
It did not need to be 20 episodes long, it could have been 16. I don't like the idea that because a complex story is being told in a k-drama, it's elongated to 20 episodes. Unlike many shows (strong woman do bong soon, etc) it wasn't like there were any unnecessary scenes, the scenes were just way too long. About halfway into the show and onwards, most of the scenes consisted of little vital dialogue but mostly just overplayed flashbacks, repeated conversations and long silences, this was actually painful and exhausting to watch so I found myself skipping every 10 seconds, but only enough to not miss any important information within the scenes.
I recommend it if you are tired of shallow k-dramas but do not expect much from how the events actually play out. On the whole, the drama isn't very engaging or binge-able, but the story itself is uniquely gripping. I feel that most people gave it a high ranking because it feels like the show was written by a mastermind but if you step back and think... what more is there to it really?

draggy and too many flashbacks and unnecessary scenes
i liked the plot and the presence of so many personalities which enriched the plot. The acting from the main cast was also really good especially Jisung who was able to portray 7 different personalities and could switch between them immediately which was done crazily good.However, I didn't like the fact that the drama was so slow and had SOOOO many flashback scenes as if the audience haven't saw these scenes more than twice already. Without these scenes, this drama could've been cut down to a 16 episode drama (but back then these kind of rich plot dramas are usually 20 episodes so maybe they had no choice lol). I was watching the whole drama at 2x speed but felt as if it was going at 1x. I also didn't really like how they tried to make Park Seo Joon's character be in love with her own sister (ik they are not blood-related but it was lowkey like incest considering how long they've spent their time together since they were children).
Stayed for Oh Ri On and Ahn Yo Na scenes LOL they were gold

So far the best drama i have watched upon now
Kill me, heal me is definetly my preferred drama up to now, I have been so addictef that I have already rewatched it, even if I prefer to discover new things rather than rewatching. Indeed, It took me some months to dedide to watch it,because I was afraid it was this kind of heavy plots, only aiming to make us cry.What do I like most about it?
First of all, the story. The plot is different , the character suffering from D.I.D. will showcase seven different personalities developped from a childhood trauma and he will be helped by a female assistant in psychiastry and they will eventually fall deeply in love. We will not find here the toxic 2FL with childish and possessive behavior , an usual cliché in asian drama. The 2FL will try to conquer ML but she will not make damage to FL. ML and FL will have a mature relationship, in spite of their intrinsic difficulties caused by sad background and family”s adversities. FL is an intelligent and attentive to ML. The main personnality of ML is also sweet and respectful to FL. Their love is so cute and intense, beautiful to be seen.
Second, the actors. Ji Sung ’s acting is stellar, his personnalities are so perfectly constructed, he goes from the comedy to the intense drama, the strentght of his gazes. And besides he is so handsome, so charming. The other handsome actor, Park Seo Joon , is also great in his role and it is delightful to see both playing together, their scenes are unforgetables. I found that Hwang Jung Eum was very funny, but sometimes her play was over-acted or not convincing, specially as she cried. But her personnality added a touch of charm to the movie. She is quite charismatic. I also loved the kids, I suppose director’S work was outstanding.
Third , the OST. I listen mostly to classical music and jazz in my daily life. And even if the style of music is far from what I eat, this OST hooked in my head, it was really perfect to the movie. I want to learn the lyrics little by lityle, because it is in my head & heart, but too fast for my absence of Koreal langage level.
Besides, the main characters were beautiful and well constructed. The ML’S personnalities were so impressive, so rich. As well as the childhood relationship between main lead couple.
/*SPOILER*/
The ending is also original and pleasant.
I will surely rewatch it again one of these days.

Hard to get into, but harder to let go
When I first began this drama, I was really turned off by the ridiculous humor of the show. Not gonna lie, I was also incredibly confused at first and totally had to rewatch the first half hour several times just to understand what was happening. The show starts off in a really *intense* manner with lots of screaming and unnecessary fighting which could deter some viewers from the drama, but it does significantly calm down the farther into the drama you get, much to my relief. And yes, I am sadly one of those people that is going to tell you that the female lead's screaming doesn't get better and DOES get on my nerves just a bit. I learned to deal with it, but I still kinda cringed every time she said something in an unnecessarily loud voice. There wasn't all that much second male lead action going on, and I do believe it would be kinda weird if he ever made a move on her, anyway, so it's all good. The storyline, therefore, almost exclusively focuses on cultivating the relationship between Cha Dohyun and Oh Rijin, although this drama is one heck of a confusing "slow burn" (?can I even call it that, though?) Although I almost left because of the humor, it is what partially made me stay and enjoy the drama. The ridiculousness of it grows on you and the amount of laughs they managed to pull out of Cha Dohyun's mentally illness was surprisingly high. I felt like we got to get to know all the personalities quite a bit, and there was a lot of character development, especially in one personality in particular. They ended up introducing a really complicated family mystery/cover-up story toward the end of the drama, and I cannot lie, they completely lost me and I still cannot for the life of me tell you what the heck went on 21 years ago, cause I tuned out of that storyline QUICK. Overall, though, this drama was worth watching, and it definitely got quite a few laughs out of me. I loved all the characters soo much, and this was just a wonderful blend of angst, humor, and romance. PS: ls Dohyun (or the actor whose name I do not remember) not the HOTTEST freaking person ever? SWOON 🙈Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Amazing Drama That I Honestly Recommend
Let me keep this short.So I basically delayed watching this drama for months. It just stayed on my watch list. I realised how big of a mistake that was when I started watching. The story and acting were both BRILLIANT! Not to mention that I fell in love with the ost... Although the lead actress's acting wasn't my cup of tea in a few small places, I'm guessing that was there for comedic relief.
The thing I did feel a little off about, which is the only reason I didn't give it a 10/10, was that in many areas the scenes were dragged out far longer than needed. Other than that, the series really couldn't have been better.
It was a lovely break from the world and handled many topics in a digestible way. Overall this has been one of my favourite series so far!

Finally, I made some time to watch this series (long overdue I know) and I can clap for plot, acting, music, and all wonderful production!
I am still amazed how talented JS is to switch form one personality to another (and love all of them) is simply pure talent! Amazing! Brilliant! Perfection!
If you have not watch KMHM yet, you should watch it asap. I waited too long!
I have to admit, the best drama watched by Ji Sung is "Secret" for me, but this one is right after!
I cant not say enough about this series because I want you to watch it and judge yourself that is why I am not saying no more except - I loved it!..... now it's your turn to love it too.

Before you read, I want you to know that I am not new in the drama world, and that I am a very picky watcher. If I don't like the start of a drama, I drop it. That's just how picky I am.

This drama had it all. All. No joke. What made me stay throughout the entire series wasn't just because there was something I liked about the show, it was because I liked everything about the show.
I watched the series on KissAsian, which is where I usually view dramas too, and would you honestly believe me if I said that I was extremely impatient when they showed me the Are You Human verification thing? Yes, it was THAT good.
The plot was something really creative. The story progressed so well and there were lots and lots of fresh twists nobody expected to happen throughout the entire series. There wasn't a single episode which made me feel a slightest bit of boredom. Everything was so neat and perfect. And don't get me started on the cast. I fell in love with how Ji Sung portrayed each and every character so distinctively. Seven personalities isn't something easy to pull off, oh lord when he cried I wanted to cry too. Kudos to him! Hwang Jung Eum did a really good job too. Fell in love with her character. Her interactions with Shin Se Gi was gold. [Small note: I think us female viewers should agree on one thing; Shin Se Gi is a hot beast and we all fell for him.] Park Seo Joon did a very good job! He was very funny.
This drama is categorized into a Melodrama, and it does live up to it's genre. Many people protested on the first episode because they were annoyed with the main female lead screaming. I wasn't bothered by it at all, I prefer those types of girls but everyone has their own tastes. But what I want you to know is how amazing the character development was. If you watched it well, you'd see how she grows more mature and there's this spark in her eyes after discovering the truth about her past, a spark that made it as if she'd been through hell. She convinced me that her life was so horrible, and as a watcher, I agree that it has been hell indeed.
Another thing, I really dislike it when a drama just sort of flopped in the middle. Some dramas have this strong lead in the beginning but then they cry every episode. I can guarantee you that the male and female leads of this drama do cry often, but trust me, you'd cry too.
Why? Because they had been through real shit. Because the actors made the sadness so convincing that you would slowly feel your heart break too. Because they had a reason to really cry and break down after all they've been through. Because they can't seem to find happiness.
The music was good. Flexible, and some people might think that they used one of the OSTs way too much, but it was fine. I didn't feel bored of hearing the same tune over and over again. I do not know why, it's just that good.
Rewatch value? Hey, this might be one of the few dramas i'd actually rewatch. YES, IT'S SUCH A BEAUTIFUL DRAMA.

Why are you still here? Go watch the drama before you regret it!

The story was superb, a great blend of life lessons, comedy, romance and suspense. 10/10 acting from jisung, its the very first drama I watched of him and he's already at the top of my favourite actors list. His portrayal of all the multiple personalities was simply superb. In my opinion, it's worth it to watch this drama purely for his acting even
Auditory hallucination is still my earworm up till today and I finished this drama around 3 weeks ago.
All in all, simply satisfying and you definitely have to watch it if you haven't already!
