I really enjoyed watching Healer, it's a unique action/suspense/romance drama that has a good balance of all three. Sometimes however i felt like the action scenes were a bit... convenient. For example the bad guys never even carry a gun? Why do they fist fight and charge at Healer in a straight line with no tactic whatsoever? Well regardless the point the producers are trying to establish is Healer is a bit more overpowered than a average human spy/thief and we have to love him all the more for it (i mean what girl don't fall for heroes right?) I think the casts did a really good job in this drama. I'm not familiar with any of the actor/actresses but my favourite has to be Park Min Young. Her portrayal of Chae Yeong Shin was really cute and easy to fall in love with. I think Ji Chang Wook did a great portraying Healer both in a super natural way and as a human who is isolated from society. Park Min Young and Ji Chang Wook have good chemistry together, they pass off as a couple very naturally so it's easy to understand how Healer can fall in love so quick with Chae Yeong Shin. I think main characters having chemistry is great, however at the same time I felt like neither of them were very inspiring during emotional scenes in a way that went straight to my heart. When they cry or stare into each other's eyes, the intensity of the emotion is lacking and I never get the gut wrenching feeling i know i should feel. Something else that really bugged me was the romance was a little bit too puppy love. Call me perverted, but in the few lip touching (i can't call that a kiss com'on!) scenes and hug scenes where we get to see the couple enjoy time together with each other (and when they finally confess), why does everything feel so tepid? Is that really all they do together?! Considering we know how much Healer did in order to be by Chae Yeong Shin's side, yet their romance is sorely lacking. Anyway favourite character in this drama is in fact hacker Ahjumma, she is someone who's past is still shrouded in history and will forever remain so but I like how she worries subtly about Healer and watches over him and their bickering is like mother and son. My impression of the music in this drama is not good. The main reason is due to one single song that ruined every moment for me, every time it came on during tender moments the singer's high pitched voice felt like nails scratching down a chalk board and killed the moment. I remember hearing this song on three separate occasions and how it completely ruined the mood for me. As a result i have a extremely bad impression of Healer's OST as a whole. Subjectively speaking however the music might deserve a higher rating than i gave them, but again the reason i did so is because of one song which killed every single scene for me. Rewatch value of this drama is quite low for me because once the story unfolded all the mystery of the past was solved, and there is really nothing that attaches me to this drama. The romance of the mains while convincing just isn't at the level that makes me miss them. As this drama drew to a close, it became more and more obvious the pacing in the initial episodes was a bit slow so not enough time was given in the last episode to wrap everything up. Therefore viewers are forced to watch a rushed job as the script writer and director do their best to give us a happy ending. I am extremely dissatisfied with this ending, it could have been much better but due to bad planning and scripting it became poorly made. Overall, this is a drama i might recommend to friends who like a good action/suspense story and prefer romance to be toned down.
