Squeeing over JCW as Healer and the fact that he's the only kdrama actor crush I have that I can call Oppa! JCW oppa! Ahhh..the feels!

thank you DB for bringing me into Squee World of Healer *double wink*

Usually I'm a silent lurker..but Healer makes me crazy *in a positive way* *cough* n here I am commenting in DB for the first time..so in love with Ji Chang Wook ??

Oh god...do you realy get email if someone posting a coment? So sorry but I can't stop smile thingking about it.and I am part of guilty. Lucky an email come without ringing or bell.
I haven't saw healer but I got crazy just from read recaps. I try to watch it but decide to wait until it finish just like other drama.
Btw you guys should visit our healer's instagram. His so cute ^my honey bunny ^

Thank you so much for awesome, "something else to read while I wait for the next Healer episode," Girlfriday and Javabeans! :)

My fav scene, on the rooftop tent when she was asking him something like u really like me? And he does this eyebrow/facial thing like mmhh mhhh. He did it like 3 times and i replayed it like 300 times ha ha!

The funny thing for me is that I stayed away from Healer because I was watching Pride and Prejudice (curse you finale!) and I'm a teacher, and always working at home, I have no life, no time to have a life ... Anyway, one Saturday I rebelled against a stack of papers to be graded and watched the first episode, and the next, next, until I hated my life again because there were no more episodes (back to the stack of papers. Boo. Hiss). Now this is the show that I look forward to all week. So well done! All shades of awesome.

squueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee~

and that is all.

Different from everyone else, I came to watch Healer with high expectation because of the casts and writer Song Ji Na. Ep 1 was disappointing too me, uh oh another drama involves complicated older generation so I dropped it. But when other dramas failed to grab my attention also, I came back to Healer and finally I saw the light lol.

You know I wrote a script that counted how many comments each person writes in a dramabeans posts and how many characters the comment has......

Some posters have 100+ comments on a single recap alone. Haha ^____^

Oh poor JB having notifications for all the comments on the Healer recaps! JCW in Healer is definitely worth drooling over and the OTP moments have been squee-worthy but since everything that could be said was already said by almost everybody else I have restrained myself to making comments about the series.

I must say that YJT has been doing a good job giving a nuanced performance as KMH. I thought that he would be the main character of the show since he is THE big star in the series but even before they entered the live shoot in phase the OTP was given equal if not more screen time.

Sigh~~ my mind is in that constant "squeeeeeee" state since last Tuesday and that cliff hanger is just swimming and dangling through my brain cells this whole week.... wherever I am or whatever I am doing.

Thanks the god! I have DB to fall back. Reading Healer recaps and comments keep me sane. Love u guys!

Here is the thing.

How can I know why other people obsess over Healer when I do not know why I obsess for Healer?

I just like it alot.

Alot.

많이.

Why? I do not know exactly. Good plot? Not too complicated but not simplistic or dumbed down? Wonderful OTP? Decent action? Okay but I have seen that before and have not obsessed....

I just dont know why i like it so much...

but it is good... :))))

Be still my beating heart, for I cannot contain how much excitement I have for Healer. This show must be doing some scary voodoo magic because I'm still biting at my fingernails waiting for the next episode. It's been three days! Surely they can pull a Pinocchio and air three episodes in one week?

Still I am shocked at the comment count.

Not in my memory have I seen that kind of response here.

People who are obsessing, why are you obsessing? Just curious.

What makes you guys like this drama, say, more than Pride and Prejudice (lol)?

LOL. Last night I thought "aish, why isn't it Tuesday already for the next ep of Healer on Dramafever?" instead of "hooray, the weekend is here!" Mainly because I'm a stay at home mom and my weekend and weekday days are the same.

But seriously, why isn't it Tuesday yet???

Amazing drama!!!!!

Healer emanates positive vibes. It's not really about the story but the "feelings" after hearing the story. :)

so.. i only watched the first episode of healer and thought it was just okay so i stopped watching...should i start watching it again...? Am I missing something? Lol

I can't wait for Monday night. I watch it raw even and next day with subs. Gosh it's so addicting. Rest of the days I read your reviews and comments. This is the first time any kdrama has got me addicted. Waiting for 13th ep .....

Wow, do not know at all how hard it is to wait till the weekend to watch Healer because I had my finals and I was super super happy at these 2 recent episodes!

Also that it's not available in the U.S. on viki where I watch most of my dramas because you have to wait two weeks from the aired date (i use the hola extention and route it to uk servers to watch), there's not much hype where I'm from which is weird because there's a lot of hype from other places.
+ I desperately wish a lot of people would start paying more attention to Healer because it is such a great show to be shared, even though it may become overrated, that's how you know a lot of people love it through its work and it's just an enjoyable show for many.

commentceptions are always so much fun :D I was in disbelief when I saw the 3000+ comment count on one of the reaps, I had to scroll down all the comments to see that no spam -monster got to you.

God I come to read and laugh at you reaction for healer at the weakend coz I miss the show
Love u db

HEALLLLLLERRRYAHHHH
i ruv to bits :')
ahjumma is the best character in dramaland, period.

I know right? Insane number of comments keep them coming! Healer has nothing much new and not as bad ass as its predecessor action-romance genre dramas but so many squeeing moments! I can't even for this show! The agony yet the fun and overwhelming feeling of watching a currently airing kdrama! The torture of waiting but so happy to read discussions and spazzing with everyone! much more happy that I'll probably never be on reading tweets and trends about currently airing local dramas in my own country. Hahaha.

Thank you so much for making me feel normal with my kdrama obsession, as well as buffy and veronica mars. :)

Just off the cuff -- could somebody write out how a Japanese would say the name of this show we are talking about? I know they have a hard time saying the letter L. As somebody mentioned to me, they actually don't hear the letter L. (This is what squeeing has done to many of us -- getting playful.)

I read the recaps on here and just go back to watch the scenes that interest me which are mostly Yoo Ji Tae scenes. The way he conveys his character is a joy to watch. I enjoy healer but not to the extent the ppl on the board enjoys it. I'm not really into Park Min Young character because it's the same cute ditsy characters most korean heroines are written to be. Ji Chang Wook has shown he's improving and is an actor I look forward to watch more of.

Hello JB & GF!

I am one of the lurkers of whom you speak. I've been an avid lurker for about 5 years now, and during that time I may have only commented three times: twice for Queen In-Hyun's Man (squeeeee Boong-do!!) and once for Answer Me 1994 (Chil-bongie aghhhh~ my heart still aches.) I'd been contemplating to, like Jung-hoo, come out of the darkness and join in on the madness. These week long waiting games for the next episodes have been KILLING me and all the fangirling on the episode recap threads have truly kept me sane. Like a nicotine patch during episodes of withdrawal, I come to Dramabeans and have my fix of Chae Young-shin and her Bong-sookie.

And I really have to thank you ladies both for the timely recaps and for permitting this wonderful environment for proper gushes and squees. Really, it's amazing how eloquent your recaps are when all I can muster is, "OMG OMG OMG!!!!!! Aiiiiiiiiieeee!!!!" Really, bravo lol.

I'm REALLY looking forward to the next episodes. Really really lol. But I also look forward to your recaps and the tumult of comments sure to follow. Until then!!! :)

It's my first time commenting in any of the dramabeans post even though I've been reading recaps here for a number of years. I can totally agree about Healers squee factor. I've watched a couple of dramas this site has recapped and you girls have a bigger following on response in this drama ever. I just hope that the fire that the show has created won't stop. Best of luck, ladies and I can't wait for more of recaps of future dramas ^_^

Haven't you guys seen the Veronica Mars movie?

Off topic, or maybe slightly on topic, but I'm with Javabeans on the whole Veronica and Logan saga. I think they are better apart than together. I'm all for Veronica living a healthy, stable, and happy life. Also, I love Piz, and nothing anyone says will ever change that! :P

Anyway, back to Healer!! So excited for Monday!!! :D

would not contain anything... since Sisters JB and GF mentioned the "rating" so-so but comments count galaxy-rocketing ... so it befit me to say some kind words for Healer... okay, yes, Healer is not that kind of oscar worthy, KBS big drama award worthy "soul-searching" / big time social exposuure drama... in any given time, a drama bout some superhero, be it superman + spiderman+ batman combined (and even surpass them all), and throw in a prettier than the angmo Lois Youngsin.. and chew on integrity of reporters, conscience of journalism, courage of newsmen, sickness of politicians, actually actually you wouldn't be that exactly "extreme-serious" topic genre in kidrama... cause we noona and aunties and them teens, just want to have some "human-emotion stirred uplifting"drama to de-stress ourselves weekly... so rating or not, doesn't show whether a drama is oscar worthy content, and honestly, top rating show like My Love from the Love, which like-u-say, reach wider fan base... ahemm....not so,,, its just reach as far as China, and its China virus-spread that cause netizens noticed, then news reporters chewed on rating soared, the more news reported, the more people out of curiousity start watching... AND IT IS JUST ABOUT SOME ALIEN, SOME NOONA PRETTY STAR, ,,, rating actually not important,eg. MyLovefromStar doesn't churn in whole different fan bases from other show...just zillions more noona and aunties from china.... to us simple Healer fans,,, it doesn't matter , don't compare lah.. to us individually Healer heals each and single one weekly for 2 days,then we hang on the; empty medicine bottle, repeatedly pour drink in refilled water every day for 5 days, then till next Monday cometh, for our healing process... and that's enough. as long as Healer production team understand, even if viewers rating not awesome, to us, each and simple one of us, its matters, and will be remembered "till our death bed", and the "process of healing from beginning of Dec till mid Feb" is hormones changing us, stirring our senses, transforming us... this alone matters.
and that sentence just went to me with me, and wake me up daily...."i don't know how to run away"....
BEAUTIFUL.
