Synopsis/Summary:

One day, night courier legend “Healer” gets a peculiar DNA sample mission to find a certain woman. As a result he’s caught in a conspiracy of national proportion and secrets of his own lost origin.

Critique:

One of the best thriller/drama show around. This show gives you no time to rest. The only bad thing is how fast it wrapped up in the end: within half an episode!! As such it’s one of those shows I dearly wished it would go on much longer.

The cast is superb. This cast has no weak link at all. One of the best cast of any show.

Park Min Young plays Chae Young Shin / Oh Ji An, the woman in question. As an orphan she had gone through tough times but is now in good hands. She works as a tabloid reporter and in the coffee shop of her father. Park Min Young is just great in this show. Despite being “young” she’s done pretty much any role possible. There’s no way you could miss a show with her (High Kick series; City Hunter etc.). Even if you don’t recognize her you won’t miss her performance. The only bad things to criticize are TV tropes of her role.

Ji Chang Wook plays Seo Jung Hoo / Park Bong Soo / Healer. As usual he’s done a lot of action in this show. Although, his role allowed him to don all kinds of characters we actually don’t get to see it acted out much.

What else is there to say but “watch it”?

Verdict: 9.3

Cast: 10
