Kill Me, Heal Me (2015)

Başroldeki adam o kadar tatlı ki sabahtan akşama kadar izlerim. Ama esas kızın oyunculuğu çok sinir bozucu, makyajı çok kötü, giyimi çok alakasız. Şirketle ilgili sahneler aşırı uzun, gereğinden fazla dramatik. Sürekli beylik laflar var. Türk dizisi gibi o sahneler, iğrenç. Çooook sıkıcı. Sadece bu adamın alter egolarıyla yaşadığı maceraları anlatan bi dizi olsa hastası olurdum. Ama değil, şirketle ilgili çok fazla sahne var ve ben şirket olayını hiç sevmiyorum dizilerde. Çok sıkıcı geliyo. Bana ne şirketten ya? Anlatçaksanız da biraz ilgi çekici anlatın yani o ne öyle iki saat bakışmalar, bi cümleyi 6 dakikada bitirmeler. Hele ki esas adamın kuzeninin oyunculuğu o kadar berbat ki sürekli aynı havalı surat ifadeleri falan... Çok yapmacık. Gerçek hayattaki kimsenin mimikleri ve cümleleri öyle değil. Dayanamadım bıraktım diziyi.

I am suggesting this KDrama, there are twists and turns that you don't want to miss. Make sure you don't skip not one episode! The writer is very clever. I am blown away! Also, thank the writers for D.I.D. Mental issue awareness. Another D.I.D. KDrama, a very interesting topic for me. I have always been interested in D.I.D. personalities.

The main Sung Ji, this is my first seeing him in a KDrama series. From what I'm seeing, he is not a bad actor. I'm impressed seeing him playing 7 personalities. I must say, he played them with instinctively different personalities. I never laughed so hard. I loved the Martial Art scenes of one of the personalities. Of course, I had to research Sung Ji and saw that he can sing as well and knows Martial Art. Sung Ji Had my emotions (all of them) from one episode to another. Hwang Jung Eum playing Oh Ri Jin, the role called for a perky/loud/tomboyish type of role which in that case she did well too. Park Seo Joon who plays the brother Oh Ri Jin, wow, that is the only reason why I watched this drama and I'm glad I did, I got to see Sung Ji and HJE. Then you have the Grandmother (what a &#@^%) The actress who played that role played it very well... just too convincing... *applauding*.

Visuals: I love the visuals especially two tall statues while two were walking. Those were beautiful! I am wondering if they were part of the set they built or real in the town. The soundtrack was good. Thanking the team of "Kill Me, Heal Me". I enjoyed it so much that I stayed up watching every one of the episodes. I'm sleepy now! lol

A VALIANT EFFORT- but it`s still a drama

If you were to ask an average drama addict to recommend you a good drama tackling mental health and societal issues within that context, they would most probably answer with three contenders:"It`s Okay to Not be Okay", "It`s Okay, That`s Love"(my personal favorite) and this drama. And while all of these depict a wide array of mental illnesses(from antisocial personality disorder to schizophrenia), "Kill Me, Heal Me" would still be an endearing pick, but nowhere near as serious and pondering as the competition.

"Kill Me, Heal Me" should be watched for Ji Sung`s and Park Seo Joon`s great performances(people always dunk on his abilities, but I personally find PSJ very capable when given the right script and this is the proof of that. Besides, he`s extremely likeable), lovely OST, at times amazing cinematography and SOME of the storylines it presents. Now, first of all, this is my first experience with Ji Sung`s acting and the man gave his ALL. He was believable, driven, mostly accurate when portraying different personalities and he really cemented his acting abilities for me. It was delightful to see such convincing acting in this kind of drama. All the props and I heard he won an award for this role, which he totally deserved. While other positives don`t need explaining, I do however, need to expand upon these storylines and, more importantly, the whole writing aspect of this drama.

One thought couldn`t escape me as I watched this show - there must`ve been several writing switch ups during the writing of the script itself, because it was all over the place. First seven episodes were definitely the most grueling, as they were filled with slapstick humor and questionable handling of the whole DID topic. If I had to compare these episodes to another show, imagine if "Strong Woman Do Bong Soon"`s writer decided to write a script around a chaebol with DID-those seven would be the result of that. From episode eight onwards, up until episode fifteen, it felt like a drama well worth exploring. The conflicts and presentation both excelled in this regard throughout those eight episodes. And then, once again, we hit a standstill until the end where it felt like the assistant of the past writer decided to give his own interpretation a try. With mixed results, honestly. Where both past dramas evaded cliches and/or swerved expectations, this one kept them in. For some, I think they were necessary(like them being childhood friends)but others just felt like an overkill(the whole love triangle, flashbacks, breaking up for drama`s sake and main female lead`s acting all in all). Now, I cannot go any further without discussing the character of Chae Do Hyun`s father. He is probably the biggest glaring mishap in this script. Throughout the show we get snippets of just how menacing he is and this was done well enough, but when the actual reveal happens, his inconsistencies come to light as well. He is remembered as a gentle, good father, who only wanted to escape the claws of his family(which can also be interpreted as irresponsible), only to come back with his son and become a whole different person. Now, where the inconsistencies come is in both his treatment of Oh Ri Jin and the conclusion Chae Do Hyun`s mother comes to - that he apparently loved Oh Ri Jin`s mother. It is glaring because other than the horrible abuse, we never get any other negative motives for his behavior, creating a disconnect. Even worse is I half expected him to get a redemption arc because they were hellbent on showing him as a good person. Which he...isn`t. No matter that he wanted to save Oh Ri Jin, it is a fact that he`s a perpetrator and a horrible human being, period. To be fair, the rest of adults who had a hand in Oh Ri Jin`s and Chae Do Hyun`s tragedy weren`t any better, including her mother. And another thing. I won`t discuss DID representation, as I`ve got next to no experience and some say that it`s good, others say it`s hamfisted. But I was almost shocked to find out some peoplee wanted Shin Se Gi to become a host and I was like:Why exactly? I get it, he gets things done and next to Chae Do Hyun, he gets the most screen time, but he embodies another part of Chae Do Hyun, as in, you`re rooting for a basically incomplete being to win over a really fleshed out one. I liked him too, don`t get me wrong, but not to that extent.

All in all, "Kill Me, Heal Me" is a endearingly good drama tugging on your heartstrings if you`ll let it. But at the end of the day it still has plot holes, an annoyingly average drama female lead and very simplistic view of DID. Still, it`s worth watching to heal your cynical heart.

Com um enredo não tão comum, a história se mostrou magnífica. De história é muito envolvente apesar de ter vários episódios. A atuação de Ji Sung no papel principal foi de deixar de queixo caído, ele conseguiu fazer várias personagens distintas, sendo capaz de serem reconhecidos apenas por conta de um olhar. Simplesmente um show de atuação. Já a heroína feminina lembra uma personalidade que era bastante popular à uns tempos atrás, é que ainda hoje é bastante usado, a garota que fala gritando, que é bastante expressiva e as vezes ansiosa. É uma boa personagem, porém, por possuir uma personalidade tão expressiva e as vezes explosiva deixa uma angústia, mas tirando isso é uma personagem divertida, competente e bondosa de coração. As músicas e cenários também são bons, as cinegragias típicas de um K-drama romântico. O legal de tudo são as várias personalidade e situações apresentadas, sendo impossível que ao menos uma o telespectador não goste. Há clichês na história, porém é algo agradável e que casa com o enredo em si.

Memorável

Com uma história fascinante e um elenco de arrebentar , Kill - me , Heal -me veio para ficar dentre os meus dramas favoritos, e olha que é difícil de me agradar.

A história é boa, envolvente te prende cada vez mais, trata de um assunto serio com leveza mais deixa o recado , você é levado do riso as lágrimas em segundos , tudo tão bem trabalhado encenado é bom e leve de se ver. Tem tristeza , frustrações porem tem felicidade alegria, amizade.

Foi lindo de ver esse drama, as atuações foram ótimas. O protagonista Masculino deu um banho de interpretação , a cada personalidade dele parecia outro ator de tão bem feito que foi, no final eu estava apegada e ja gostava de todas as personalidades dele. Desidratei na hora das despedidas de cada um.

A protagonista feminina me cativou muito, divertida, forte,i inteligente e é tão difícil ver protagonistas femininas inteligentes ;
Gostei de todos os personagens até os antagonistas não eram tão odiável.

Outra coisa que gostei muito é falta daqueles clinches chatos que a gente assisti tanto, o romance entre os dois era fofo não tinha aqueles triângulos amorosos chatos que sempre enfiam na historia, e quando quase rolou rapidamente a mulher se tocou que o protagonista estava em outra e saiu de fininho , simplesmente amei.

Em fim eu super recomendo, se você quer ver um drama leve que aborda um tema sério com um elenco perfeito e super simpático essa historia é para você. Curti muito assistir. Vou guardar na lembrança.

I dropped it after Episode 14 and I have to say that while this drama is really unpredictable at times, the overall setup and execution is predictable and cliche to the point were there's no point in watching anymore because you figure out quickly what they're trying to do and accomplish. But in turn, I've read the recaps for the few episodes remaining and while nothing surprised me, I'm glad it ended on a high note so this review isn't really the complete review but I've gone as far as I can with this drama.

It started off loud and for the first little bit it was quite entertaining. Do Hyun's different personalities and the relationships within. A very unique and intriguing subject surrounding mental health. How the past shapes and molds our futures.

JS has the best acting range in the industry. It takes someone special to pull off convincingly the variety of complex characters he was tasked to showcase. Everyone else played their parts accordingly. I will admit HJE's constant screaming was annoying but she had some great moments too. It is funny especially with the Perry Park and Yo-na scenes. The OST was okay, I was surprised by Gotye.

The flashbacks really do hinder the story though for me. It's not crazy happenstance, it's fated crazy happenstance which is very tricky to achieve. I think the present time stories really suffered because of the over-reliance on flashbacks. KYR and OMS characters were severely underwritten and were non factors. If you told the story chronologically, would it have the same impact that it was supposed to or would it keep the viewer guessing enough to last the whole viewing without being told how to feel, I tend to go with the former.

I also note that when this aired, there was another similar drama at the same time, Hyde, Jekyll, Me and I had seen and completed that before this one but I still consider KMHM the more serious of the two and overall much better executed story. So if HJM didn't do enough, KMHM does more than enough and some might say too much.

Vários Dr.Jekyll e um Mr. Hyde

A história é interessante pois trata de um problema psicológico pouco retratado, quer em séries, quer no cinema sendo o mais famoso " Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde".

O actor principal é soberbo ao encarnar as diferentes personalidades, ou seja é um excelente actor. Já a actriz principal deixa muito a desejar, mas talvez não por culpa dela mas sim do papel que lhe foi atribuído já que ninguém consegue identificá-la com uma médica psiquiatra. Eu pelo menos não consegui! Na verdade, mais parece uma doente histérica com problemas psiquiátricos, de tanto gritar e de bater nas pessoas, incluíno o irmão.

Mas vale a pena ver pela atuação do actor principal!

Resolvi fazer esta review para aqueles que não curtiram esse kdrama se sintam menos aliens nesse mundo.
Tentei muito seguir até o fim, mas não deu. A história é estapafúrdia e infantil. Os momentos de comédia são até mesmos grotescos. O personagem construir uma bomba do nada e a cena da explosão remete a Os Trapalhões. A tatuagem que aparece quando muda para outra personalidade é outra coisa irritante. Para que? Não bastasse a história não ser plausível, precisava agregar um detalhe sobrenatural?
Sobre o tema “transtorno mental” , li reviews dizendo que foi tratado com delicadeza e cuidado, mas discordo. Primeiro porque a doença do personagem é um bando de clichês no que se refere a múltiplas personalidades e nada condizente com a realidade. Quem realmente tem um transtorno mental (e é consciente disso) deve se sentir ridicularizado pelo drama. Segundo que a personagem ser uma médica psiquiatra respeitada e se envolver daquele modo com o paciente é uma total antítese. Qualquer um que trabalhe com saúde mental conhece as regras básicas profissionais e a personagem desobedece todas, especialmente a ética.
Claro que Jin Sub é excelente (e, para mim, é graças a ele que este drama tem tantos admiradores, que parecem relevar todo resto), mas mesmo assim o roteiro obriga o ator a uma atuação exagerada. Da atriz protagonista, quem já a viu em She Was Pretty ou em The Undateables, sabe que não requer um roteirista a obrigar para que ela atue desse jeito insuportável.
Claro que esta review é dissonante da maioria, mas você, que entende e compartilha dessa opinião e também droppou, saiba que não está sozinho.
Por fim, quero salientar que a nota para assistir novamente ser 1.0 é porque uma vez clicado acidentalmente em cima, o site não possibilita mais colocar zero.

I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS

I literally have five more episodes of this show but I can't go any further with this show. My main problem is the family connection between all the characters. because I am on Episode 15 and from what I keep hearing and seeing that cha Do Hyun is registered as the child of Min Seo Yun but then later we see a photo of Min Seo Yun and Oh Ri Jin when she was young so we are supposed to assume that that is her real mother. But if that is the case then that would mean Oh Ri Jin and Cha Do Hyun would be related because they have the same mom. but even if that is not true because we hear that Shin Hwa Ran is his actual mom he is just registered and someone else's child. even that would mean that Ri Jin shares the same father with Do Hyun and that would make them half-siblings. the thought of them being siblings and doing all the things they have done leading up to this point makes me want to throw up. ANOTHER THING that I didn't hear people talk about is that Ri Jin's "twin brother" Ri On is literally in love with her and it seems like people are ignoring that. like I know that there not actually related but they were raised as siblings, TWIN SIBLINGS at that, and for him to see her in a romantic light even when they go around calling each other brother and sister makes me want to throw up and cry. I literally wasted over 14 hours of my life watching a show people hyped up just to find out they are siblings and that they have kissed each other. These weren't the only things I disliked about this show but this was the big and main reason I dropped this show.


If I am wrong about this statement or if this stuff gets cleared up if I continue the show then please leave a message. but for now, I am not going to waste any more time on this show.

Overhyped drama

This drama was on my watchlist due to its high scoring in MDL. I, unfortunately, was not able to connect with it at all. The story (that I watched) was interesting but what made me lose interest was the FL. FL's character is of a psychiatrist and yet she screeches, yells, and has anger management issues. At no time did she behave as a psychiatrist and most often came across as if she needed to visit one.

I really tried to ignore the actress playing the character and shift my attention toward the ML, but I reached a stage where I just could not stand watching her gimmicks.

Dropped out as I was in no mood to be accommodating.
