I would've given it full 10's but I wished there was couple more songs than the "eternal love" and "you", anyway. whats astonishing about this drama is how solid it is. the characters especially were incredibly written, no cliche's or out of character attitude.
and that can be said about everything in Healer
No Cliche's .
I find it surprising that the writer doesn't have an experience in this type of drama, yet she produced a masterpiece. The lines, the conversations, the little remarks and nods, and the way characters talk and interact with each other let alone her ability in sustaining the level of excitement and tension with the presence of mellow and romantic moments as well.
The Casting is a top notch, every single one of them ( Park Min Young, Ji Chang Wook,Yoo Ji Tae, the incredible Ahjumma, the crazy secretary Oh, Double S leader, the someday office boys. Yeong Chin father and the coffee shop ahjushi, also the cyber detective, and every single other person), all of them interacted in a lovely, hilarious adorable and convincing way, the evil ones were excellent too.
the action scenes and the romance were something I will never ever forget, best romance acting in K Dramas till now - with all respect to Hyun Bin secret Garden Romance-.
and I am sure that the fans who watched this drama will never forget the songs, and it will send tear in their eyes and deep nostalgic feeling.
I am incredibly grateful for this show, thank you for everyone who helped making it happen, and I Can't wait for the writers next project, and Ji Chang Wook too!

I read a lot of negative review about this drama, But after I watched the first 3 episodes I was addicted, and really really loved it.
first of all it must be viewed in its own genre, yes, the story is repetitive, full of cliches, dragging at times, but the Cast and characters were superb and covered for the story lines shortcomings.
CAST and Characters (9.5/10)
- this is a thing that made this drama diffident and unique when it comes to rich boy/poor girl/ second lead triangle, there is no misunderstandings that distance the main couple from each other but real outside pressure and problems, they communicated well, talked things, explained themselves, were decisive and blunt, especially the female lead Cha Eun Sang: she didn't give Yong Do any hopes, didn't act pathetic or weak, she was strong, brave, honest and decisive even from the very start when Kim Tan started liking her in L.A, she ignored it all and did the right thing, which is considering it a dream, just a dream.
Kim Tan as well, though he is "Too Perfect" but was genuine and expressed emotions in an honest lovely way. Kim Woo Bin (Yong Do) as a character and actor was the greatest, you wouldn't think he will really hurt her, but he did many times, you wouldn't think he will chase her and express his love over and over, but he did despite his pride and dangerous personality, he understood his own feelings very well, he knew what he wanted from her and couldn't settle for less, also his acting is magnificent and I was more impressed with him than I was even before he is becoming the top of my young Korean actors list for his skills as an actor regardless of the way he looks. the supporting cast were great as well, the Sunbai, Kim Tan Mom and her friend/ maid Ahjumma. the only character I hated was Lee Esther (Yoo Rachel mother). the writer did a great Job in creating a friends/ family. work place characters, each of them was unique and memorable, and made the show very enjoyable for me.
Music and OST (9.5/10):
apart from &"Moment" I loved the OST, great music, great songs, especially "Love is .." by Bromance. the problem with Moment was the times they used it in, but still as a song it was what the show needs: memorable and touching.
Story (5/10)
the story itself was average and full of cliches', but was carried well and strengthened by the characters and the tiny funny/ romantic/ angry moments between the 3 leads as well as their interaction with each other.

Overall, I really loved it, after watching many intense thriller, suspense, mystery drama I needed something light that touches my heart and absorbs me, and The Heirs did it for me. Maybe, just Maybe, if I watched it in a different state of mind I wouldn't enjoy it as much, but Hey, Kim Woo Bin is a lead! so to hell with everything else.

Let me say that the idea behind the show is quite fun, family/ spy thriller drama where the main secret agent is working as a baby sitter to gather information, bless him.
All the parts about the K.I.S group were great, there investigation techniques and the serious way they navigate daily life was exciting to see and very relatable as well, especially the power a group of Mom's on a texting app can possess and their ability to influence each other, let alone how funny they are. Their scenes were always fun to watch really, and surprisingly they were smarter and more thorough than the secret agents' society,
When it comes to the Acting, not a single actor disappointed me, maybe Ra Do wherever it's an emotionally intense scene, but he was charming in all other aspects, so I can let that pass.
However, as an average person I could see that the serious stuff were done half-heartedly as I felt I was watching an early 2000's Asian show, a lot of plot holes and stupidity, the professionals are acting like no one can see them while they're carrying a mission, even though we know the professional agents can't act so recklessly, they hang around the same places all the time even when someone pretends he is dead, he comes back to where he was and trots around freely assuming people will not recognize him, that's only an example.

this is a show that's fun for its family value great acting and characterization,, but underdeveloped and half-assed when it comes to the serious aspect, totally unforgivable considering how developed the Korean Drama's are now in the crime, spy, thriller genres. However, if you don't want to be too serious and involved in something and just watch it for fun, this is certainly the show for you, and your family, they will love it.

This Drama is most memorable for the amazing OST, Hyun Bin sparkly Jersey's and that red shoe.
what I loved about this drama is the solid cast and their performances, the lead actress is a surprising lead, you don't expect to see such a female character in K Drama, not appealing nor eye candy nor weak and vulnerable.
Hyun Bin as a lead was a brilliant choice, he played the character so well that I loved all of his scenes, every other cast member was outstanding as well.
the story is fun, heartwarming and heartbreaking as well, it remained attractive and had some unexpected twists, especially in terms of "Progression" of relationship between the lead couple and Hyun Bin and his cousin, the singer.
I don't care for the lead actress Ha Ji Won that much but she won me over.

The story, even if the core of it isn't something new, but the way it unfolds and connects those who are affected by the main event is believable and very very humane.
I loved the script, not too much nonsense going on and the characters don't really talk much most of them, there are few talkative ones, few serious ones, few depressed ones, few carefree ones, There is no Evil [erson in this show, just some people who are way too selfish with more flaws than the others.
The Soundtrack is insanely good, hypnotizing, quiet, thoughtful and touching without big ballads or forced emotions, loved the genre they used and how long the song is played whenever it comes on the show, never too much, just a few seconds to set the mood right. I am in LOVE with all the songs.

I gave it 9/10 because there was a lot of flashbacks in the first few episodes, and the lead actress was the only one who fell short as EVERYONE WAS SUPERB that she, unfortunately, paled in comparison, despite her good portrait of Min-soo and the fact it's her first Drama ever! Jun hoo was GREAT! Loved him in all his previous support roles but this time I can say they cast him right despite him being an idol, he deserves it fully. and the fact that e is not the obvious choice (from marketing point of view) nor the lead actress, gave the show much more depth and humanity

They hose veteran actors to play the older people, the Grandma, Min soo mom and dad, and so on. and boy didn't they do a superb job experience s really fascinating.

I strongly recommend this show, it couches you and you get connected to the characters without being too painful o tear-jerker, I will be certainly watching it again!

Refreshing story, intriguing, exciting, thrilling and unpredictable plot with a LAME ending.
As much as I loved this show and how unpredictable and crazy the game was, as much as I detested the writer’s failure in terms of Characters in the last 3 episodes.
Si Jo, the creator of the game, returning from his dungeon and being utterly useless, tongue-tied and frightened like a kitten the whole time without answering any questions, surprisingly enough Hee Jo never felt that her brother is responsible for the dreadful events following the introduction of this game, and the death of the most beloved character “City Hunter”
If a person I love or from my family was involved in creating a dangerous thing, I would feel guilty and apologetic to others while trying not to blame him while he is down and low. I found this to be quite strange and utterly unacceptable, especially that they all treated him like the victim even though Jin Woo suffered all the losses and negative outcomes of this game. Se Joo didn’t even propose the possibility of Jin Woo hiding till the last 20 minutes of the show, this is ridiculous, I think he is the WORST character in the show. He offered no explanations, he had no clue what was going on, he didn’t shed a light on the creation of the game or how he met Marco, most importantly doesn’t seem like he understands where the awful glitch started. Also, if it’s meant to be a 'game, how come he was sure Jin Woo is dead because Emma deleted him? Isn’t this a game? And why did he become a virus in the first place!
Secretary Seo is the real star of this show, he had a fun, endearing personality and portrayed being NCP in a haunting, heart-breaking manner, I can’t forget the blank expression on his face every time he appears an ally.
The soundtrack is ALL lame, a part of “Memories of Alhambra “piece played by Emma and when Dr. Cha appears with thunder and rain, other than that the music failed the show.
Episode 15 was pointless, Episode 16 was trying to touch down on reality and I think it did quite well until the annoying Park Shin Hye went running to find Jin Woo where he was claimed to be. However, one question was always ringing in my head: Why does she always jump into a cab when she has her own car?
