So there are various reasons why I gave this drama a lower score than others I have reviewed in the past and here I'll try to explain why!

STORY and CHARACTERS: The story started up pretty good! Tomboyish girl who falls in love with her own "enemy" who she has to take care of as his body guard, In addition there's the mystery behind someone stalking Park Moo Yul and trying to figure out who the stalker was kept me interested until the end!

Eun Jae's character is lovable and cute, I had no issues empathizing with her and I love that she was always true to herself and didn't change who she was.
 Park Moo Yul on the other hand was a good lead. I mean, don't get me wrong, I love Lee Dong Wook as an actor and he was the reason why I started watching this drama in the first place but there was something about his character that didn't make me fall in love with him.

The love story, oh! The love story! (and here's the main reason why this drama ended up disappointing me so much!) The title and picture cover mislead me as the relationship between the main couple is anything but a "Wild Romance". I had no complaints with the ex-girlfriend coming back obstacle in their relationship but after a couple of episodes,  it  started infuriating me and ended up making me feel so frustrated  that the only thing I wished for was for Eun Jae to just leave and move on with her life and continue been awesome as she already was!!!

There was zero tension between the main couple making Eun Jae fall so back behind that I almost forgot who the female lead was and I questioned myself several times if PMY really liked her enough to give up on his past and chose her since he treated her as a boy/younger brother most of the time, even until the end making it so unfair for Eun Jae. The struggles between Park Moo Yul and Yoo Eun Jae get resolved so easily and out of nowhere that it just lacked any emotion and feelings of relief/happiness of finally watching the main characters managing to overcome all obstacles and be happy together!

Kang Jong Hee's character (interpreted by Jessica Jung) was pretty good and intriguing, like a cute psycho/depressed Barbie doll which I ended up loving and hating. There was several times where I could totally get her and others where I wanted to just throw here out the window!

On the other hand, there's the romance between the supporting roles Kim Tae Han and Kim Dong Ah which made it up for the lack of romance between the main leads. Their love story is absolutely beautiful and they are so cute together that I couldn't help but feeling excited every time they came to scene giving me the lovable/cheesy/heartwarming moments that I was lacking. Their relationship was the perfect depiction of opposites attracting, they complimented each other so well!
 
Jin Dong Soo and Oh Soo Young's story started up pretty good and kept a good flow until the end though there were parts where something stopped making any sense since it (and then again) gave more importance to PMY and KJH relationship leaving Eun Jae in the shadows. Besides, the way Jin Dong Soo and Oh Soo Young started acting and the excuse behind it wasn't that convincing, at least for me!

ACTING/CAST: I think the casting was well put together and the acting was overall good and convincing. The actors/actresses delivered a very good performance and kept the emotional rollercoaster going throughout the story. So I have no complaints with that at all!

MUSIC: I liked the music and it complimented the happy/sad/intriguing moments pretty well but on my personal opinion, it wasn’t outstanding or catchy like other OST's I've heard before.

REWATCH VALUE: Since the end of the story was somehow disappointing, rushed and emotionless, I honestly wouldn't go through all the drama again for nothing!

OVERALL: In conclusion, I wouldn’t say "NO!" to recommending this drama as there are several elements in the show that doesn't make it unbearable to watch but I would totally tell people not to expect a lot of romance so you don't get disappointed!

Awesome story and amazing acting, there's so little bad things I can write about this drama as it managed to keep me at the edge of my seat and with a box of tissues near me the whole time. That been said, here's my review.

Story
Kill me, heal me is wonderfully written and keeps the mystery and melodrama of the story perfectly balanced with hilarious situations and scenes that will keep you entertained throughout the show. DID is a very controversial illness and there are many discussions about it but this drama manages to depict it perfectly and helps you understand the meaning and story behind each personality. One of the things I really liked about this drama is that it doesn't fall on the typical Kdrama cliché that can become boring or frustrating at times, the story is so rich and heartwrenching that there's no space for that. The storyline is full of suprprises that makes it hard for it to become predictable, even the antagonists have a totally different role throughout the story. The only "flaw" I found in the story  was that in my opinion it lacked some closure to some characters in the end.

Acting/Cast
The acting in general is amazing but overall I have to pay special attention to JiSung's acting. The multifaceted acting and ability to bring to life so many different personalities is amazing. This is the first time I see him in a drama and I have to say I'm definitely watching all this dramas/movies because he's just an amazing actor. The way he changes not only the tone of his voice but also the look in his eyes makes me think he's the best Korean actor I've seen so far!
Hwang Jung Eum's acting didn't convince me in the beginning because I felt it was too similar to her role in She Was Pretty but shortly after, she managed to captivate me as she became a great heroine and developed a heartwarming and funny personality.

Overall, I loved the chemistry between the main characters and how they matured with each episode plus the great bromance that develops between the male characters!!!

Music
Personally, I usually get a bit tired of some of the songs played in dramas. Maybe because I usually watch several episodes in one day and that has something to do with it. But on KMHM the music is amazing and was probably one of the reasons why this show managed to make me shred several tears. The main theme, "Hallucination" is the perfect combination of soft vocals and rap that fits perfectly with the heartwarming and painful experiences of the main characters. It managed to give me the chills every time it was played and even now, after watching the whole drama, I've been listening to it over and over again!

Rewatch Value
I will definitely watch it again!!!!!!

Overall
If you are looking for a different type of story with intrigues, romanticism, mystery and melodrama without falling in the typical Kdrama storyline, Kill Me, Heal Me is everything you are looking for!!!!

*This is my first review, so please bare with me :)*

This Drama came to me on a perfect timing as I was just trying to find something that could bring me to tears not only of sadness but also joy! I started watching it some weeks  back but for some reason didn't go pass the first episode. And don't get me wrong here, it's not that it wasn't captivating, I just was too busy and kinda forgot that I was watching it so I ended up watching Dream High instead. That's when I totally fell for Kim Soo Hyun and decided to put my chaos together and give You Who Came from the Stars a try. The result? An absolute vortex of emotions!

This drama won't only keep you at the edge of your seat from all the mystery going on but you'll find yourself riding a rollercoaster of laughter, despair and tears! Not only the storyline is amazing and gives you the perfect vibes of how not even 400 years are enough to learn about love and life but also bombards you with scenes from past and present that will help you understand the main characters without falling in a traditional RomCom where poor extremely good girl meets cold hearted rich guy. The development of all the characters is very good, they all mature in a good way and learn from their own experiences.  I will give this drama extra kudos for the villain, I'm not going to enter into much detail but I'm just going to say that THAT's how a villain should be!

The chemistry between the main characters is heartwarming, they are so different and yet compliment each other in a nearly perfect way. Kim Soo Hyun will captivate you with his charm and personality, he's a very lovable character and is so easy to empathize with  him. Jun Ji Hyun's character  on the other hand has so much charisma that it's impossible not to find yourself smiling during her monologues and hilarious scenes.

The supporting roles complemented the story perfectly. There really wasn't any single one who would get on my nerves and they all develop in a very loving and mature way!

I'm definitely adding this drama to my list of MUST re-watch since I'm sure I'll be enjoying it every time I watch it! So go ahead and give it a try, you won't regret it!!!

There's one thing I can tell you for sure about this show and it's that in moments where I've been stressed or depressed, My Boss My Hero have genuinely  been there to my rescue! Therefore, I've watched many many times and will probably watch it again when I'm in need of a good laugh!

Not only is it a lighthearted, enjoyable and overly funny drama  but it gives you a lot of heartwarming lessons for everyday life while enjoying Maki's  wacky personality. Nothing calls more for a fun story other than a violent yakuza with a big heart! Tomoya Nagase did a great job in this role, his good looks and charisma makes Makio a lovable character with a great personality. The bromance between him, Sakurakouji (Tegoshi Yuya) and Kazuya (Tanaka Koki) is cute and funny, and the chemistry between them is pretty good. Even the relationship with supporting role characters develops throughout the story without leaving anyone behind. All the characters grow up throughout the story and their relationships mature in spite of their ages, fears and traumas.

Although this might not be the most romantic drama out there, there romance in here is refreshing and innocent all the way till the end! The story is very entertaining with it's goofy parts and also heart wrenching moments that will totally make you shred one or two tears. If you are looking for something full of laughs, life lessons and a bit of romance, My Boss My Hero is your best option!

There isn't really anything bad I could say about this drama, every character was unique in it's own way giving the whole story a nice comedic touch that will make you laugh for hours wanting to watch one episode after the other. The ending was really good and I couldn't ask for anything else, it makes sense and will totally make you recognize Tomoya Nagase's acting skills!

So, fix yourself some popcorn and icecream and enjoy this show!
