The drama didn't do that well in ratings so I had pretty low expectations going in. But once I picked it up, I was definitely surprised. The drama was super addicting and has became one of my all time favorite Kdramas.

The story was great with an excellent mix of action, and romance (wouldn't mind more of that). It was very well executed, and gave me the feeling that the story line was really thought out and the writer had everything planned, unlike some dramas where you feel like its been dragged out or rushed. The characters also felt well developed. Although most dramas might have one or two characters that annoy me, I didn't actually feel like I hated any of Healer's, which I attribute to a combination of great writing and acting.

I loved the casting choices with the drama, especially Ji Chang Wook. I hadn't noticed him too much before, but I absolutely fell in love with him with this drama! His performance was amazing and he simply just owned his character. Whether it be the action involved with 'Healer', or the adorable 'Bong Soo', JCW really captivated my heart with his acting. Park Min Young was great as well, the leads made me love both of their characters so much and the chemistry between them was so strong. I loved the romance that played out and the cuteness in that. But beyond the leads, all the supporting characters were great as well, which made the drama much more touching since you could really feel for the characters.

I enjoyed the drama while it lasted, but I have mixed feelings about it so I can see how there are people that love it, and some that didn't. When I first started, I was hooked, even though the storyline was predictable, I wanted to see it actually play out on my screen. However, the pace at which the story proceeded was very slow, and some episodes made me feel like there was no progress at all. There were some parts of the story that were disappointing and made me feel like there was something missing. And then all of sudden the last couple episodes... they just felt kind of jumpy, random, and rushed. I definitely thought that they could've done a better job editing/planning.

Looking past the flaws, I can say that I did love the two leads, and they made a great pairing. I made it through the show with the romance in their scenes. I especially loved Wallace, he really owned his role, and even though I thought that his character probably didn't have the greatest qualities, I ended up falling in love with him anyways. On the other hand, Tiffany's character annoyed me a bit, I felt much more for her when she was young than her as an adult. The supporting characters were also a mix, there were some of the typical annoying characters that exist in dramaland, and there were some that I really liked as well.

Overall, it was a typical romantic drama with slow pacing. I found myself to like it in general even with all its flaws, but perhaps I simply just loved both the actors, so if you don't it might make the drama even less appealing. Definitely not for someone looking for a light and fluffy romcom.

I didn't watch very many Korean movies prior to this one, generally stuck with the dramas, but the hype for it lead me to give it a shot. Not to mention the fact that Song Joong Ki was starring.

Overall the movie was a piece of art. It was quite the emotional movie, and it was definitely well cast, well acted, and well executed. I loved the combination of Song Joong Ki and Park Bo Young, they had great chemistry and their emotions really touched me as the audience. In particular, Joong Ki was simply amazing, no disappointment in that at all. The amount of emotion he pulls off without any lines...speechless.

Definitely recommend watching this movie, beware of tears though, dunno about everyone else but I definitely shed my fair share. It was just such a touching movie.

This drama was super cute and a very light watch! If you're a sucker for the romance then you'll love this drama! I was an avid fan of the book so I must say, it has mostly done it justice. Interesting to see how they made the online gaming part play out...

I might be slightly biased with the casting choice in Yang Yang, who is just so darn good looking I can't even! But I did kinda disagree with the Zheng Shuang for the female lead since she didn't exactly seem to fit the role of the character from the book. I eventually just accepted it though...

But all in all, I loved the cuteness overload in this drama, since it's quite rare to find a drama where the main couple face everything TOGETHER. No break up, or anything like that to make you frustrated at the drama! Definitely a break from the usual drama story lines and an easy rewatch just to see the cute scenes again. On the other hand...you're gonna have to overlook the acting...or rather, lack of...
