I was kinda disappointed by this drama. I did enjoy it. But I started it with high expectations, since everyone was constantly telling me how good it it, and sadly, I really don't see why everyone thinks it's such an incredible drama. I wasn't really into the plot at first, and my excitement sort of dwindled down after a while. I just wasn't able to get invested in it. I wish they had focused more on Young Shin and Jung Hoo's stories because the best part of this drama for me was the romance, it was really sweet. The action scenes were amazing, too. I enjoyed watching Healer's missions, I wish we had gotten to see more of his regular work as a night courier. I liked his interactions with the hacker ahjumma. Overall the story was pretty ok.

The enjoyment for me was mostly in the characters. I really liked Ji Chang Wook's character(in fact I liked him so much that I watched another one of his dramas after I finished Healer) Both Jung Hoo and Bong Soo were precious in every way (even if Bong Soo was just a facade). Park Min Young was great too. Young Shin was a great and dynamic female lead, and I enjoyed every moment she was on screen. Young Shin's dad was the best though. Him and his small gang of ex-convicts. The cast was quite good. What made me keep watching despite my lack of deep investment was Young Shin and Jung Hoo, they were both great individually and together.

The music was very nice. The OSTs were stuck in my head for quite a while. Plus they were in English, so I could sing along. Somehow, they managed to pull off English OSTs without making them sound as cringy as they often do in some kdramas, so kudos for that. The background music was fitting, too.

I don't think I'll watch this again. I rarely rewatch things and this has not given me any reason to consider watching it. (Edit 04/2020: Haha i did end up rewatching it (though i skipped a lot) because I wanted to see Ji Chang Wook again)

Overall I think this was a pretty ok drama, but not really anything special. I'm still a bit disappointed. I thought I was in for something mind-blowing because of all the great reviews on here. Plus it's just my type of drama, action-packed, suspenseful, dramatic... I'm not sure where it went wrong.
Watch it if you feel like it. The romance is wonderful, and the characters are well developed. It's not bad at all, I did enjoy it, but I just see it as another decent drama, not the masterpiece that everyone else seems to see.

I just finished watching this drama and whOO this was one hell of a ride
The plot twists were INSANE
My hands are shaking as I type this
I can feel some serious withdrawal approaching :'))))

In terms of story, this drama certainly delivered. The twists were everywhere and quite a lot of them were vERY surprising (i'm still shaking). While there were a few plotholes here and there, generally the whole story came was engaging and exciting. I'm a sucker for action and crime dramas with plot twists and complicated plans so this was right up my alley. Every episode left me craving more and there was never a dull moment. Especially the last few episodes. It was so tense that I had to pause and go watch something else to calm down because I was feeling so overwhelmed. There were a few things that never got explained and a few things we never got the satisfaction of seeing, but that didn't really take away from how great the overall story was. The withdrawal is hitting me hard :')))

The cast. Don't get me started on the cast. I love the cast. Each character was great and I loved them all. My favourite character was hands down Jang Do Han (played by Kim Young Kwang). His character was just the kind I like. Seemingly happy and bubbly but with a dark (and rather sadistic at times) side. I loved every single second that he was on screen. Jo Soo Ji (played by Lee Si Young) was great as well. Her emotions were very realistic and you really felt for the character. Also, she was a badass and I loved it. Key and Kim Seulgi's characters were great too. I really loved the whole dynamic of the little team they had going there. I also really liked the interactions between Jang Do Han and Kim Eun Joong (played by Kim Tae Hoon). Those, although few, were hilarious and very interesting to watch. The villains did a great job making you hate them too. Overall, there was nothing lacking when it came to the cast.

I only really noticed 2 OSTs, Amen and Watchmen of Dawn (the two most commonly played throughout the drama) but they were both lit and lent themselves well to the scenes they were played during. Definitely going on my Favourite OST Spotify playlist.

This is the kind of drama that isn't that enjoyable when rewatched because you know all the twists and there isn't really any suspense. Since it's the kind of drama that thrives off of suspense and plot twists, so I don't think it'd be too fun to rewatch. I might anyway, because I enjoyed it a hell of a lot and because the characters were so great (esPECIALLY JANG DO HAN).


SO overall, it was a great drama and I recommend it to eVERYONE. Seriously though, I hadn't seen a drama this good since Chief Kim (which, now I think about it, is pretty similar to this... huh). 10/10 would erase it from my memory so I could watch it again from the beginning. I really really really recommend it. Now if you'll excuse me, I gotta go watch everything on Kim Young Kwang's discography.
