Both stories follow a man who prefers to stay in the shadows, with a much larger plan in life. Though they are both driven by dark pasts each one just wants to finish things and live peacefully. They each meet a woman who they feel a strong need to protect which will eventually broaden their horizons to what in life is really worth the effort. The chemistry in both drama's s really great. And lets be honest, both Ji Chang Wook and Lee Min Ho are GREAT kissers. The shows both have a great deal of action and mystery, though I don't feel like in either its is over played, there feels like a nice balance between action scenes and character and plot development scenes.

They've got the same main actor. Both shows give a similar vibe. The K2 has less comedy tho.

Although the beauty that is Healer can never be compared to DOTS, I feel that these dramas are strikingly similar. Firstly Healer is saving people's lives, or destroying them, which is comparable to Si Jin. Additionally, they would do anything to protect the one's they love and thus are in pain (several) if not many times for said people. There is also a lack of a love triangle in both dramas allowing for the main characters to develop their relationship without a third party interfering. This is important as viewers are more connected and embellished into the relationship of the characters and feel the emotions they feel. There is also an abundance of politics thrown into the mix with a sprinkle of betrayal. Overall these dramas are quite difficult to compare since they address different topics but overall have similar elements thus making Healer enjoyable for any DOTS fan. Happy viewing.

Felt it similar.
Both r having strong fields of thriller romance and some revenge.
I even thought that both the lead male had very much similarity in some where. Try it ..

The male main lead are both disguise to save people. Tho, Healer contains more romantic scenes than Bridal Mask, but either are great drama and worth to watch!

It follows the same plot of an undercover 'agent' who has to hide his identity in order to complete his missions.
Falls in love with the LI while on a mission resulting in her becoming his 'weakness' and someone he has to save.
Like healer, the LI starts off with a 'crush' on the second lead but eventually falls for the main guy.
You have your nice share of corrupt politicians and people in higher power.
The comedy feel in Healer is enhanced more in man to man but there is still a good amount of action/tense scenes.
I would really recommend watching this is if you loved Healer, both lead actors are great.

Though Healer doesn't have a personality disorder, but he has to disguise himself to accomplish some missions....
Bickering romance, mystery, thriller & comedy... The music is too die for as well....

While Healer is more comedic/slightly more light-hearted than FOE, both dramas have well-written action/crime and romance plotlines, and perfectly blend them together. If you like the combination of both genres in the one drama, you'll most likely enjoy the other. Also, both MLs have a second identity, both FLs have investigative occupations (police in FOE vs journalism in Healer), and both dramas follow the main cast trying to uncover the truth behind a past crime that relates to the childhood trauma of one or more of the leads. Both are very high-quality dramas in general.

seo Jung Hoo is a special kind of night courier, known only as "Healer" by his clients. For the right price and with the help of a genius hacker, he gets his clients whatever they want, as long as it doesn't involve murder. His latest job leads him to a second-rate tabloid writer, Chae Young Shin, and the successful reporter, Kim Moon Ho. He begins to uncover the mystery of his own shared past with the two reporters, thus putting them all in danger.

Has one of the same actors from Healer. Similar vibe to Healer. No masked characters though. Instead of one person there's a group of people.

-Both Male lead are very strong at fighting
-Both Male lead hide their real identity
-Younger brother hates older brother because his older brother is evil. The difference is in Healer he hates his older brother at the beginning of the story, while in YWCFTS he hates his older brother in the middle of the story.

If you like mystery/thriller.... Balanced with a bickering romance and comedy.... The plot is amazing....

Great music as well.. You will enjoy it for sure, if you just focus watching it....

Both have hacking involved and deal with main characters who are trying to find the truth about something. Also, both main characters are badass.

Great leads. Love the depiction of inner struggles. Some parts I like I remember you better than Healer. Healer too far away from real life. It gives me heartaches. I remember you has less romantic gimmicks. More realistic. More possible in real life. I love the way - the male lead is cooking and taking care of his brother and the female lead. Story resolve itself very nicely to my sorry. I almost gave up in the beginning but got better and better.
