HEALER YAAA.. wow Fanderay ! your drawing and comments make me cherish this drama more... thankyou for all your opinion.. the story itself is beautiful.. anticipate Monday.. :)

Thanks, Fanderay!!! Now cover your ears: SQUEEEEEE!!!!

I think Healer/JCW is making us all gush... (okay, I'll stop there, since things turn R-rated very quickly where the Healer thread is concerned!)

Love the texture of his hair and her knit beanie!

I agree about him being "reborn" through Young Shin's eyes, and living a half-existence in the shadows until now. I mentioned (on the Healer Ep 10 thread) that both "Healer" and "Bong Soo" are just a small part of the real Jung Hoo, and that the "Healer" publication was a group effort, so he can't be the "Healer" by himself!

It's beautiful that Young Shin has been such a catalyst for him - he was the guy that hated people paying attention to him and showing a personal interest. Now he's confessing that he would live the way she wants him to live, as the person she wants him to be! And they haven't even realised that they're childhood "sweethearts" yet! Now, that's the kind of destined connection that makes my heart melt!

Woah Fanderay, that's a gorgeous painting! You always empress me. Bonus points for the choice of scene, it's my favourite one for a number of reasons you've stated in your great analyses.
Every episode of Healer gives us warm fuzzies and suspense. I love it. (take note other writers)

Perfect, Panderaray. Both your analysis and your drawing. I'll never forget that rooftop kiss scene. ^^

I love the picture. Also, I love the detail you gave to the knit hat. It looks wonderful.

This show caught me completely off guard. I wasn't even going to watch it originally! Once I saw the City Hunter-esque teasers, I thought I'd at least check it out. But the show has been SO AMAZING. I didn't think I'd love a drama so much so soon especially just coming off of Misaeng. Healer is filling the void or Misaeng but in such a different way.

Is it blasphemy to say that I'm loving this more than City Hunter? Jung Soo has just had such a terrible life and it's beautiful how he is experiencing these things all for the first time.

Wow. Beautiful drawing!
This is the turning point for Healer. After the rooftop kiss scene, suddenly everyone is so excited that we have crazy amount of comments for episode 9 & 10 recaps!

"This wasn’t some impetuous wrist-grab kiss, and it also wasn’t a kiss planned to be the first of many. It was a single moment to be treasured, and it felt like Jung-hoo was trying to memorize every second of it."

That.

Thank you for that, Fanderay.

I always look forward to your posts, Fanderay, but it's a special treat to have your amazing talents contributing so richly to the Healer lovefest. And what a profoundly meaningful and magical moment you chose to portray. Thank you! Given the epidemic of Healer Fever going on around here, this'll most likely be your most popular post yet.

Wishing you well in your time away from us~ we'll miss you!

Wow @Fanderay!!

I am at a loss for words!!

You are truly gifted!! ;)

The drawing is PERFECTION!! ;)

No other words necessary.

Thank you so much!! ;)

@Fanderay

As for your reflection, thoughts and takeaways from this drama so far, especially pertaining to this particular scene, I take my hat off to you!! ;)

It has been pure enjoyment reading your every word. ;)

Thank you so much for articulating what has been on my mind (and I bet also on the minds of many others)! ;)

Healer may well be on its way to becoming THE drama (unless the writer stumbles from here on out) -
THE drama that we will be talking and fangirling about for a long time to come,
for all the layers and nuances it has to offer us,
there does not seem to be an end
to the peeling off
and unraveling
of its awesomeness.

We are JUST getting started on this EPIC journey. ;)

*rubbing my hands together with excited anticipation*

thank you for such a beautiful art :D

It's a beautiful drawing! ;)
Thank you, Fanderay!

Healer is indeed a very good drama! There are many beautiful and action scenes that I kept watching for many times. The music is awesome too.

Love the drawing. Like most fans of this drama, I went into it not expecting anything because I was conned into thinking that Pinocchio was the biggest thing since slice cheese. I mean, come on, we remembered people sneering that healer was just a carbon copy of Pinocchio, right? You remember that, right?
I had a week before starting a new job so I clicked on healer and watched the first episode before the holidays began. Then paused it because I was bored then rewatched it again then paused it then rewatched again until it was Saturday and I had to work Monday and I was running out of time so I finally finished the first episode. Wasn’t too impressed about it to be honest. It was the second episode that got to me. I love that impromptu dance in front of the geeky jung-ho. It said something about a character I find so lacking in Pinocchio.
I like that most of the characters in this drama has a backstory that not only held up any loose ends but tied the whole thing together so we can pinpoint from a to z and still find that they connect at some level of the story. And I love that most characters seem to hold on to some memory of pain they can’t let go of. The brothers, the hacker, the teacher, the sister-in-law, even young-shin seem to circle around that pain that closely connects them.
What I’m really glad about is that healer has finally surpassed the drama it has been unfairly compared to in the beginning. Pinocchio stars two of the biggest actors in k-dramaland but even their charm and magnetic presence cannot bail out a sinking ship since a wailing mess of an iceberg struck at the heart of it. The drama looks good though production wise and the production design is near to perfection. But it is the little things in life that makes a colorful palette well, colorful. And a story drama more compelling and watchable.
I don’t know who the writer is of healer but pat yourself on the back, dude. You’ve done a really good job with this one. A really good job.

This is done so beautifully~

SQUEEEE.

*holds breath* nope,i can't. Wheeeeee.

alright,i need to stop b4 I start saying things rated R.

wonderful drawing. Ur narration on the kiss is so on point that I just kept yelling "PREACH" much to the irritation showing on ma friends' faces(I'm still tryna draw them over to the show,i will succeed soon) LOL.

errr.Anyone know wat we fans of healer call ourselves now?
I ve seen healerites,healiebers. lol we need to stick to one or many as we can call ourselves.

Wow Fanderay it's such a wonderful picture ...the feels ahhhhh.. Ur explanations are so to the point

Fanderay kamsahamnida *solemn bow*.

Awesome, daebak .... your painting, your analysis, your squee ... just wonderful. :)

Great analysis and beautiful painting!

Thank you, Fanderay, you've captured this glorious moment amazingly! The rooftop kiss scene was an absolute "KYAAAA" moment for me and this pic just reminds me just why!!

What makes this moment so meaningful and surreal is that Jung-hoo finally let go of his defenses of his own accord, and acknowledged that he needs Young-shin's understanding and trust..! Young-shin was embarrassed 'cos she has been so transparent wrt. her feelings in front of him, but he realized he wanted just that! He wanted her love, it was his one redeeming quality... His ray of hope when he felt that he had no reason to carry on.. So, he decided to bare his feelings, tell her that his feelings were the same, possibly even stronger.. just so she does not misunderstand or forget him.... He does not know if he deserves her or not, but he knows that he needs her... No words were needed to explain how he felt at the moment, just one tender kiss to tell her that her feelings, her trust meant the world to him!

AHHHHHHH, are you trying to kill us all over again?!

This painting is lovely :) And you're analysis, I mean, you completely nailed it. The bittersweetness of the single moment that may never occur again, how Bong-soo is becoming an emotional outlet for Jung-hoo, how he's opening himself up to the world for the first time.

All of this, just makes this romance more affecting than any other one I've experienced in recent years. AND when you add the fact that it gets to develop gradually alongside an interesting, exciting plot, thus managing to stay completely fresh throughout the course of the drama...well, let's just say, you have me addicted.

Beautiful drawing! Thanks Fanderay!!

I loved your analysis of the scene and the romance! This show is just SO GOOD!!

The painting is beautiful. I honestly haven't watched healer. I just haven't been able to get into dramas lately. So when I read the synopsis of Healer I decided not to watch it. But after reading your comments/review on the show I think ill give it a try.

Great picture and review/analysis! I think we're on the same take on this novel/series! More love and power in this show!!! *squeee

Aaaah thank you for this thread so we the fangirls can all simultaneously swoon over Healer once more! *swoooon*
