Series Like Healer

Apr 8, 2023 06:55 pm

Hello,

Healer is one of the first series I watched and it has been in my top 3 list since the first day I watched it. But no matter how much I wanted to, I couldn't find a series in the same style. The feature that I love and want again is: The man who was after the girl for another reason, started to protect and love the girl secretly.

It sounds cliché when you write it, but I don't know how I couldn't find a similar show. If you know of such a series, please help. The country doesn't matter. I also prefer that it is not very old and has a score above 8. Thank you from now.

I love this troupe as well. Here are my top favourite genre from this troupe:

Behind Your Smile (Taiwanese drama) : Ml wanted revenge against fl mom and that's why got closer to her. But ended up falling for her badly.

You Complete Me (Cdrama) : Ml want revenge against Fl father and even used her. But ended up falling for her so badly. Fl here is quite strong not a naive girl.

The Confidence (Cdrama) : There's no romance but only one sided love and obsession from Ml who's a villain. Ml at first wanted to kill like really kill fl. But halfway in He fell for her so badly. Be aware there're many TWs. But the fl is so strong.

Lie to love (Cdrama) : If you want the situation reversed. Fl gets closer to ml for revenge. Tho ml is already in love with her. Fl is a bit strong but not much.

All these have 7.9 or 7.8 rating here but for me all of these were 10/10

+ Behind your Smile

The K2 - this was Wooks second drama and most similar to Healer if you'd ask me. Its not as good and gosh you truly get annoyed by the female lead but wello. Might be something for you. He is a bodyguard for her, but actually he is hired by the one person who considers her their enemy. However romance blossoms and with that the job gets a lot more difficult
The Winter the Wind blows - he is a conman that takes on the role as the female leads long lost brother. But he falls for her and tries to help her instead
Angel's Last mission - he is a fallen angel and in order to get back to heaven he has to help the female lead find love. Wello, turns out he falls for her instead
Lost Romance - she ends up in the novel she is writing. But she ends up in the role of the villain. He is the male lead of her novel. In order to save the female lead she ends up earning his distrust and in order to protect the female lead he has her end up in his custody. Wello. Romance enfolds
A Korean Odyssey - he is a fallen angel (again) and she made a contract with him. Now she is his way to return to heaven but wello. She somehow ends up thinking he is her guardian angel and thus problems are kinda bound to happen. Romance ensured
Pinocchio - he ends up taking on the role of her long lost uncle. She knows he is not but for the sake of her grandfather she acts along. they have this sort of love/hate relationship and grow up together. Turns out they have a lot more in common that just growing up together. she ends up being the reason why he even is in the role to begin with and with that a lot of conflict and problems arise and also lots of love.Truly a gem of a drama and highly recommend it. He really does a lot to protect her

Also maybe give My name a try. She is the daughter ob someone that was brutally murdered. Now she is out for revenge and taken in by her fathers best friend. Becoming an assassin and joining the police she meets someone who is helping her discover what truly happened to her father. It is good. And while there is one specified couple I'd say there are kinda 2 couples. And both try to protect the female lead. One more so than the other. Its not 100% similar but closish if you just look for the feeling and the scenes of male lead trying to protect the female lead no matter what

I can't quate the other post, but I watched all of them except The Winter the Wind blows. Lost Romance is definitely one of my favourites. Thanks a lot. @Lou

The country doesn't matter. I also prefer that it is not very old and has a score above 8.

Love Between Fairy and Devil - 8.9. 2022. The ML and FL become linked so that if the FL is harmed, the ML is harmed in the same way. He also needs her to fix something. The ML initially protects the FL and keeps her by his side for those two reasons, but then he develops feelings for her that he tries to ignore / deny / hide for a while. The protection part mostly isn't secret, but his reasons and true feelings are for a while.
Zhang Gong Zhu Zai Shang - 7.8. 2022. The ML enters the FL's household to carry out a mission from the emperor to spy on her. The FL maintains a reputation for being superficial and flirtatious with her handsome male servants. The ML plays along with that, but ends up developing real feelings for her. It's a web drama and the plot isn't very deep, but it's short and very focused on the romance with little filler.
The Masked Lover - 7.7. 2017. The FL is an architect who secretly has to take over her twin sister's role as head of a triad-turned-semi-legit business. The ML is a cop who goes undercover on a personal mission seeking to take down the FL's sister's operations. He hides his true fighting ability / personality as well as his reasons for approaching the FL. The quality is lower (and it gets a bit draggy in the second half IMO), but the dynamics are very similar to some of the dynamics in Healer.
