This series truly encapsulates what youth (mostly) and what after-youth is all about! Even if you're not familiar with many of the references (personally I came to appreciate many of the series/songs that I didn't know of after looking them up) there's no way you haven't felt, even once, what any of the characters went through. Watching the first episode and seeing Shi-Won freaking out because of the videotape and her reaction, you will definitely go "yes! this is how I reacted to this/that in my past!"

All the characters are very likeable and this is a big plus; the more the likeable characters there are, the more you will like the drama and it doesn't let you down in that deparmtent at all. The parents were also a joy to watch.
The dialogues are witty and funny, there are a few messages that really tie up nicely with the storylines unfolding, the OST is amazing and very well picked for every occasion, the acting was great..yep, it was a truly great series, no complain that I can think of.

The title is very fitting- as time goes on, it's even more difficult to sit down and remember certain moments and feelings from the past but from time to time, your own heart replies to you even if you don't ask it and the memories come rushing in! I definitely recommend it and I'm off to watch its counterpart right now.

Watch it and find your own answer(s)!

Well, if you want a series that has

- a complicated yet compelling story that needs patience to be comprehended (that means don't be expecting everything to be served to you in a platter right away)
- well written characters that are not full of cliches who annoy you everytime they open their mouths because you know exactly what they're gonna say
- spying world mixed with journalism
- a good romantic relationship that doesn't have your usual gigantic dose of angst because guess what? the leads DO talk and try to solve their issues together instead of pushing each other away ~cause they love each other too much but they won't tell it so they can hate each other but then love each other again and w/e!!!~ (i've had it with that plot device being recycled everywhere, i'm telling you!) srsly, the relationship on Healer is an important aspect and it was written in a very delicate yet strong way
- intelligent humour scenes
- great OST

well, Healer has an abundance of the above. Honestly, I'm happy I came across a series that rivals the feelings I had when I was watching It's Okay That's Love and I Hear Your Voice- didn't think it was possible but it's an excellent drama- Healer does deserve the great rating it has. The only minor, very minor complaint is that the last episode felt just a tad rushed (apparently there were some issues with the production and had to cut a couple scenes?) but even so, it didn't take away from the entirety of it.

If you don't like much the first episode, wait till the 2nd one you come across in a surreal scene inside the cafe; if you're not sold by that scene, (while I was watching it, I said to myself "yes! now this will be a great series!) then I don't know what to tell you!
Exceptional series from all aspects, definitely rec'd!

I found out about this series in an episode of Reply 1997 and what drawn me to it was the few seconds of instrumental music on the intro song that was shown on Shi Won's TV. (great OST, needless to say) I had wanted to watch an old K-Drama for a while and I decided that would be the one to get me into that old mood.

The story is nothing extraordinary- poor girl gets thrown into the rich world, there are the usual villains that are evil just cause, but what I liked about this series is that it gets the "work hard for your dreams" message across in a genuine way. It was also refreshing not to see that much unecessary angst and noble idiocy as it is the case today. Highlight for me, apart from the music where the instrumental themes stand out, was Cha In Pyo as Joon Hee- probably one of the most calming and composured presences I've ever encounted in a drama. That doesn't mean the other two leads are far behind; AJW was a sweetheart with a brilliant, raspy voice and CJS who had to pull off a double role too for a few epis was very good; I was sad to learn of her death.

Generally it has its flaws and a bit of a rushed ending but it's an okay drama that will make you nostalgic for the old times. I'd rec it to people that want a change of pace and want to watch a series without having to think too much except wanting to spit on the villains because holy hell, were they annoying!

If it wasn't for the actors doing a good job of the material they were given, I would rate this a lot lower than I did.
WHIB isn't really that great. The characters seem to be making the same mistakes over and over again, they're obsessed with money, lust, power, greed and the cycle goes on and on.
By the end of the series I didn't feel an emotional impact probably because there wasn't much of a redeeming quality left for any of the main characters (maybe, just maybe Kang Wook) and because the story was dragged for far too long, with overdramatic flares.

The ending seemed fitting to be honest- i guess the "moral" of the story is that money truly can't buy you happiness and while you realize that, you still keep chasing it only to realize that again and still keep chasing it etc etc
There are tons of better dramas than this out there obviously, but if you ever feel the need to watch something overexaggerated and feel like truly killing time, then I guess that's the show to watch. I guess...

Easily one of the best romantic comedies- the story provides a setup for many misunderstandings and it delivers in a hilarious way.

The main couple has great dynamic- Gang Mi is one of the most amusing characters and Gi Tae is a crafty gentleman. The family members and friends (Hoon Dong the highlight of everyone- you just gotta love him!) are also fleshed out, enough to progress the story without taking the spotlight or dragging out the original premise.
There were a couple issues with some characters' motivations (actually lack of sometimes) but it didn't take away anything from the funny, lighthearted and yet touching at times approach.

The OST is pretty neat with a couple addicting songs and a nice score.

I really, really enjoyed this series because it gave exactly what it promised; I'm still laughing thinking certain scenes along with the sound effects (seriously, the sound effects were brilliant- I gave it an extra 0,5 in the overall rating solely for that!)
If you're looking for a good, no, great rom-com, then this is it!

That was a very intelligent humorous rom-com.

From the very first minutes of the first episode, you know you're in for a treat! The main leads are absolutely hilarious in their own way (probably because they don't even try to be hilarious, their mannerisms just take the cake!) but they have a very humane side too. They're not caricaturas that are just there for joke-value. In fact, this show, while it was 70% humour, the remaining "serious" 30% was presented in a very delicate, touching way.

You will get hilarious situations, extremely amusing and clever dialogues and a sincere look on the subject "what is love, really?"

I enjoyed it thoroughly, I definitely rec it to everyone that is looking for an alternative approach on this genre.

In order to create a show that will leave a lasting impression, you need pretty much A+ on every department, and IOTL passes with flying colors!

- The story deals with topics regarding mental illness and manages to really dwelve into them; the writers did a great job of taking the matter seriously and presenting it in a profound way, you really feel the sincere approach on that front.

- The acting is absolutely superb from every single cast member; they all did a fantastic job and balanced out well both the comical and more serious aspects of the series. (+add to that, that Jo In Sung and Gong Hyo Jin have great chemistry; their scenes together was such a joy to watch.)

- The music was fantastically picked; there's not a single song that won't be stuck in your head after you finish watching it.

All in all, an absolute gem of a series that will take you for a ride and never let you down. A solid drama from start to finish that will truly stay in your heart and maybe teach you a couple things. I know it taught me!
I give it a 10 in every category - and I rarely give 10s, but it really doesn't deserve any less. A huge kudos to everyone that worked to create this, they all did an excellent job. Phenomenal series, simply put.

The series had potential for a solid 9-9,5 but well, ultimately it lacked that extra bit quality- there are some issues with the pace, other times it felt it was dragging and some others it was rushed.
The characterization felt sometimes off for 1-2 characters, and there was some back and forth on a certain front that went far too long.

But, it was still a good and enjoyable series, with lots of awesome action scenes, a marvellous OST (especially the music score, absolutely great- some momenets were executed greatly accompanied by the music alone) and you get your romance, too. (with your obligatory unecessary angst ofc but well)

p.s if you came here after reading/watching the manga/anime, then let me tell you it's barely (more like nothing) like the original story so don't expect anything and complain later- it's mostly the title.

Man, that was some decent melodrama.
This is how you handle the powerful emotions of guilt, anger, resentment, hate, revenge and ultimately love and forgiveness- yes, I can see that people complain about there being many crying scenes but honestly, what the main duo (and their loved ones) went through messes someone up for years so what did you expect?

I gotta say, all the actors did a very good job but Seung Ho as Harry stole the show- he did a brilliant job. And Harry was a charismatic "villain" that you don't stumble upon often in those kind of dramas.

There's a lot of suffering in this drama, so if you're into light hearted stuff only, yeah, no. (but then again, I guess the plot and the title gives that away anyway, so you wouldn't wait for me to announce that!) I myself don't usually watch melodramas, but this one was really well written and the direction and cinematography was very good too; obviously it wasn't perfect, not by a long shot (then again what is perfect?) but I definitely don't regret watching it at all.

I would give it an 8, but it gets an extra 0,5 because of the spell! (if you watch it you will know what I'm talking about!)

If you're looking for a supernatural-light-horror-comedy-romance, then look no further. Master's Sun does a great job to live to that premise.

When I read the story synopsis, I was like "hmmm, that can either go really good or really bad" and thankfully, it went really good. There are some great stories to explore, most ghosts' stories are well thought-out and executed (the effects and make up is a big plus + too) and there is also the kidnapping story that keeps the suspense on going.

The characters aren't one dimensional, and they evolve on their own right too, as does their relationship;
a big factor to help on that is that the main couple has great chemistry (GHJ seems to be having that trait with any of her co-stars). The secondary couples were also very entertaining to watch. (Kang Woo&Little Sun were the best!)

The OST was very good- the main romantic theme stands out obviously but there are some nice light hearted songs in there too. The music score is nice, too.

My only complaints are, that I felt like the last few episodes dragged out a bit more than they should, there wasn't a real resolve with one of the ghosts' storylines that kinda bugged me a bit, there were some conversations about a "dilemma" that went back and forth and back and forth and yeah, it felt a bit eeeer at some moments.

Other than this though, it was a good series and I enjoyed watching it very much; Definitely worth my time!

Oh boy, where do I start with this?
This drama has more plotholes than a swiss cheese. It started okay, it had potential but as episodes progressed you couldn't keep up with the deus ex machina tricks, how time jumping really works and it was getting confusing as heck.
However, if you like romance wrapped up in a cute, fluffy, teddybear way then you will find plenty of moments in it. That's cool, I do like my occasional fluffy dose but if it doesn't have a proper story and a foundation to keep up with good characterization I get bored. Easily.
I wasn't really impressed and the reason I give it a 6.5 and not lower is because the main couple truly had chemistry. But other than this, yeah not much.

I just finished watching this drama and all I can think of is one word : Legendary! (in the famous words of one Barney Stinson!)
I've been hearing and reading rave reviews about it and I can attest to every single one of them- this is a diamond drama and I mean the real deal.

The story has been thought out from the very first episode and it is unfolding at every small piece each episode and never drags out or wavers. There are moments where you will laugh out loud and there are others where you will shed a tear and want to hug the characters. And this is what makes a drama stand out, when there is a perfect balance between the two. And there was truly that perfect line between the two.

The acting is top notch from everyone but as expected, Ji Sung had to carry out a very heavy acting :burden" and oh boy did he did do it! The guy deserves all the awards in the world, he was simply sublime in every single personality he had to pull out. He was really phenomenal and he deserves all the credit in the world. Hwang Jung-Eum had a very difficult task as well, balancing a stubborn, loud, enthusiastic yet vulnerable doctor- their chemistry was great as well. (I still need to watch Secret btw) But yeah, like I said everyone was absolutely awesome in their roles, hence the 10 I gave in the acting category. (the kids too, brilliant, just brilliant performances) I guess if I had to praise a category the most, that would be the acting, yep.

The music is great, both the tracks and the instrumental set the tone perfectly.

If you haven't watched it already, do yourself a favor and please do- it's hands down one of the best dramas out there, an epic ride you don't wanna miss!
To every person that worked to bring Kill me Heal me to life, well done guys, it was an epic ride!

"Do you dream that the world will know your name; so tell me your name." -that could be the tagline (replace name with story) for this fantastic series. (and that particular line comes from an amazing song but I digress.)

How many times have we judged someone, punished someone, condemned someone without ever knowing the whole story? Without caring to know the whole story? Because all we could hear was our own voice in our head and disregarded what the other person had to say.
Well, this drama takes a deep look into the notion "there are always two sides on a story/does justice ever find you/truth is always the best policy". And it delivers; it delivers in an outstanding way.

I have many things to say about IHYV and how it all comes full circle but I don't want to give away any spoilers accidentally so I will keep it short and generic-

The acting was magnificent- many a characters in the series had some truly tough scenes to pull off, and they all did.
The story never lets out- I didn't feel any episode dragged anything unecessary which is really important because the writers had a clear direction of what they wanted to do, and they did it.
The music was subtle but when it needed to be dramatic, it was.

I guess the only "flaw" I could pinpoint to, if I had to, was that sometimes certain scenes of the past didn't need to be flashbacked again and again but honestly the writing was so good, that I didn't mind seeing those scenes again.

This is an extraordinary series, that truly deserves the praise it got. You should hear its voice and you won't be left disappointed!

"Is this the best you can do? Are you sure?"

Well, Secret Garden was the very first drama I've watched properly and I'm sort of nostalgic-biased towards it so I'm gonna try to be as objective as I can.

The story isn't something that new or epic, there are moments where you feel like they're being rehashed over and over again but what make the series truly memorable is :

a) the music. We all know that a good OST and a good music score can propel a series from good to great and this is exactly the case for SG, and even some more.
Every single piece of music on the series, from the iconic "That Woman", to the piano BGM pieces are absolutely fantastic. It's just a marvelous OST, simple as that.

b) HJW & HB's acting on their switch personalities mode.

c) Oska.

So yeah, SG might be deemed overrated by some and, they might have a point in the sense that the series didn't bring something water mouthing on the table to warrant all the hype and the ratings, but it's still a good series- with great acting, superb music and a few touching moments that will definitely stay with you.
