Love this series. The suspense...yes. Plot...yes. Action...yes. Romance...yes. Sexy....yes, yes.As soon as you finish 1 episode you'll crave the next episode, I mean crave like a fiend. The plot keeps you in it and the romance is just right. Spoiler!! Who knew holding hands could sizzle like this? 1 item though...they overdid the Parkour in one of the episodes and after all the build up there should have been a little more meat for the, I'll just call it, "the true reunion" towards the end. Also, Moments of the last episode felt a little hurried. This is the only reason this wasn't a puuuurfect 10...it's a 9.9! Other than that..it'll keep you on the edge of your seat. It's a fantastic journey. My recommendation? ---Just watch it!! Healer is the cure for the common KDrama!

Fyi: . I'm now going to be looking out for more shows with Ji Chang-Wook. Empress Ki...you and I will be in for a looong binge.

This drama has actress(park min young) who has 5 emotion at best level. Even though story is good ,ending was bad. It may be good time pass drama but for me to like a drama it need to have euphoria moment or you want to root for the character. Lead actor is like robot with keyed in. He goes everywhere and everything. Kinda like mini lee min ho. if anyone say this greatest drama , they have to be fan of PMY. There is no other explanation of giving this drama 10/10. It does not have romance. Romance with PMY is romance with plastic doll. Humans are weird people each their own. But for me this drama has anything to give except 1/10 unless you are bored with time.

Not my cup of tea

I feel bad because a lot of people have recommended this drama and I genuinly tried to enjoy it.

I think this one might just be me more than the drama. I'm more of a main character focus first then slowly get into plot - high stakes - larger than life conflict sort of person. This drama just failed to make me care about the characters.

When I first started watching the very first episode we hardly spent much screen time with the MC. There is just too much going on, so many overly complicated political nuances that I honestly do not have the patience to follow at this point in the story. I usually can appreciate the political side of dramas and the evil overlords that want to conquer the world and kill ML but with this one, because I barely had any information about ML and the situation at hand, I couldn't care less if he died or not. It's a bit of a structural problem... like they're introducing the bad guys and side characters first and ML and FL second. It just felt all over the place and very disconnected. I gave it five episodes and each one felt like a chore and homework mixed together. I had to keep tabs on everyone all at once and the backstory is not very engaging.

ML is charismatic and has um.. visual appeal, but other than that I'm not really seeing much five episodes in. He might get better in the future but if you haven't been able to properly introduce your ML in five hours I can't help you. His connection with FL- them knowing each other as kids but maybe not remembering is something that I've seen being handled so much better in other dramas. A picture of both kids sleeping next to each other is just not enough to make me relate to them. If you're having them be childhood friends at least have them be awake. I don't care for sleeping characters as an introduction.

FL is annoying... such a disappointment from her wonderful introduction being raised by thugs. All that goes out the window very quickly for the sake of rescuing her. I love me some damsel in distress actually, but it felt... forced here.

I did not care for Reporter guy or his backstory. Sorry.

Overall this drama lacks the binge factor/page turner/mystery aspect that makes me click the next episode. I might come back to it one day and give it a chance, but probably not at the time being.

Healer is that special snowflake of a drama that manages to combine action, romance, and some nice spots of comedy, all in one tight little show. And i like that badass healer!

the blend of adrenaline-pumping thrills, a truly sparky, heartfelt OTP, a deeply melty – yet flawed and believable – hero, and a courageous, strong heroine, makes for an exhilaratingly heady combination of feels that just sends my heart in multiple directions all at once.

Highly polished camera work and its very effective, very immersive OST, and it’s a combination that’s pretty darn hard to beat.

A worth watching drama.

ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE

I can't describe how much I loved this drama, everything about it was absolutely PERFECT is EVERYWAY. I loved every single second. It was so exciting, funny, adorable, sympathetic, sad, melancholic, action-packed, fast paced yet soooo many details and just an absolute masterpiece. The story was like mind blowing, it felt so original and just soo good to watch. I guarantee butterflies every minute of the drama, either because of the romance, the adorable comedy, exciting suspense or the awesome action. This drama was a true masterpiece. The Cast have done a FANTASTIC job like the acting in this drama is phenomenal! Huge fan of the ML after this drama and the FL was just dazzling. The music. THE MUSIC WAS AMAZING AmAZiNg like absolutely brilliant, especially the bgm during the scenes where the ML is jumping on rooftops and the action sequences their bgms were absolutely brilliant. DEFINITELY rewatch worthy and I don't rewatch dramas but this drama was a classic. Overall ABSOLUTELY phenomenal masterpiece that is literally perfect in everyway with exciting action-packed-suspense, adorable romance, melancholic backstories and brilliant comedy!???️ ??❤️‍???‍???

The ending got me disappointed! It reminds me of "The heirs" , it still has a lot of questions at the end I want to see all of it on how it happen... and yeah it is still a happy ending but it didn't really satisfied me. That's why I gave it 9. The reason why I got hooked into it because Ji chang wook is very impressive! He's so smart at everything! He is the right actor to be as a healer. It makes me fall even more!I also love the story behind of their past, it takes us a lesson about friendship. The past also got me a great plot twist! The thing is I don't feel much of their chemistry. Maybe its because the first drama that I watch with Ji Chang wook is suspicious partner and while park min young drama's "What's wrong with Ms. Secretary Kim". I'm still loved that drama! That's why I didn't get much a spark, only just a little spark hehe! I also love the hacker Jo min Ja ( or known as Kim mi kyung)! I saw her in different drama but for me this is her best role ever!
since mostly, she is a mom in every drama! But over all I loved it! gives me thrill! except the ending.

Strong start but lacking ending

I won't lie. I'm kind of upset writing this review because I just finished the show, and the ending left me unsatisfied. It was a happy ending, but I expected so much more. There were questions unanswered, and some of the scenarios that happened in the show did not really get fixed. I also felt like some of the characters and their relationships should have been focused and delved into more. I do have to say that I loved the idea of this show (the whole night errand thing). All the main characters and their personalities were fun to watch. The action and fight scenes were exciting and fun. The actors did a phenomenal job and were the main reason I went back to keep watching. I only wish the storyline could have taken a better turn in the last half of the show. I still think everyone should check 'Healer' out because it's different from the typical K-dramas you see. It mixes action, comedy, drama, and romance, and it does a good job at it.
