Kill Me, Heal Me (2015)

This is one of those very few korean dramas I will never forget. Everyone who's seen more than 10 kdramas knows that there are certain plot-twists/devices that are frequently used in dramas but 'Kill Me, Heal Me' was sooo different. Sure, some things will always be the same; the male protagonist is a chaebol, the female protagonist is poor and loud etc. but apart from this typical man/woman constellation, this drama was so fresh, new and EXCITING!

I don't want to get too much into detail but let me just say that Ji Sung is an extraordinary actor. All of his 7 personalities were s convincing. His acting wasn't awkward or ridiculous at all (which sadly is a frequently seen phenomena in kdramas) and his female counterpart played along really well. I also loved that the male and female lead had a good relationship and genuinly liked each other. You would think that that's a given for a couple but no, it really isn't in kdramas.

Some minor points of criticism: Omega's "romantic" storyline was a little bothersome, the constant repetition of the same flashbacks got old after a while and I felt the ending was lacking something as the last episode felt very rushed (even if the ending was realistic).

To sum it up, the plot was incredibly interesting, the acting was superb and the drama stayed good from episode 1-20 which is very rare! I would recommend this drama to anybody who likes dramatic plotlines and is not looking for the typical romance love-triangle or revenge-plot.

I wasnt sure what to expect when I first saw the trailer for this, but it was better than I imagined. Outside of a few cringe scenes it was a good watch. I really enjoyed the cast and their chemistry. There were a few moments in the story when I feel it was too cheesy, but when you are acting out certain personalities you will have that. I think he did a good job with all the different personalities as well. I think my favorite was Ahn Yo Na. I laughed the most with her. I found myself a little upset when Se Gi left, but thats my type. Definitely a good show to watch and rewatch.

Wonderful romantic Drama

If it weren't for the constant screaming, the loud music and some inconsistencies, like the coma patient who gets up in bed after 20 years and kneels down - I would have given it 10 points.

I liked the story idea and it was very entertaining and time runs while watching.
The main actors and even the supporting acts did a great job.

The only thing that was really annoying was the constant screaming from the main actress. I like her, but that was too much.
I also thought the main character was great and cute, but I had a crush on assistant Ahn 🥰

Watch it, if you like romantic fiction.

This series just wowed me! I’m not one to right a review but this series deserves a round of applause, I’m not sure as to why I put this show off for so long.

Ji Sung did phenomenal In his roll, he really brought each personality alive. I laughed, I cried, I really felt for them Mr Cha and Mr. shin, my heart almost exploded for them❤️❤️ I’m just in amazement how well he did in this roll.

Hwang Jung Eum ( Oh Rin Jin) The only flaw I have to say was I had a hard time with all the screaming I eventually just got used to it. Her character was fun and how she dealt with the personality’s was cute, funny and at times heart breaking.

For the music. I loved it, the main song I had to down load it. ????

Not one for a long reviews but if you are putting this off like I did, just don’t this show is just awesome ❤️❤️

Come on Shista!

The first 3 episodes are genius and draw you in like an addict to it's charms. It's campy, hilarious & fun. It's Ji Sung's tour de force and shows off his acting abilities to their fullest. Each personality is lovable and it's incredible that the viewer can tell them apart by just his gestures, no need for props. Hwang Jung-eum is a good choice as his leading lady, as she is not a weak female and she gives as good as she gets. They play off well against one another. We have an early Park Seo-joon here where you can see his male lead aura shining through, but at times they are using him as a tap..be hilarious here (in his interactions with Ahn Yo-Na) and serious there when he's painfully in love with his adopted sister. When it's hilarious at the beginning you can overlook the inconsistencies for pure entertainment value, but when it gets to episode 15 and descends into darkness the questions that you didn't ask before get asked. Another Kdrama that would have been a masterpiece at 16 episodes. The last 5 episodes aren't really necessary. There are some fun moments when the personalities reappear but it looses it's momentum in a sea of flashbacks and happy endings. It's honestly the first time I have ever felt sorry for a ML when his mother & grandmother are bickering over him to take over the reins, honestly...these women need to get a life!
The music is excellent, especially that rap. I have to applaud this drama for it's handling of such a difficult subject matter and turning into something that is a real pleasure to watch. Bravo!

Shin Se-gi is the best!

This was a really good story. Ji-Sung portrayed being 7 different people so well! I became a big fan of his because of this drama. I really believed Do-hyun had multi-personalities. This type of disorder is deeply psychological and hard to comprehend. The drama did a great job going through the trauma that caused all the personalities to come out and wrapped up how to heal Do-hyun at the end. Shin Se-gi was my favorite personality. He was straight forward and scary. He was also Do-hyun's first personality at a very young age. I felt for Do-hyun from the beginning not being in control and having to clean up after the actions of his personalities.
Oh Ri-jin was hard to watch. She was so annoying. Her and Ri-on have a really good sibling bonding relationship. Blood related or not, it felt weird to think there could be any romantic feelings.
The thing I did not like was all the replays and flashbacks in every episode. They replayed what happened after it just happened! Another frustrating part of the drama was no one would answer any questions! Do-hyun's mom and grandma would make him go talk with them, but when he asks questions about the past, they just turn him away. The build up of unanswered questions did pay off big at the end. I did enjoy the big reveals and shockers of their past.
I loved the OST Auditory Hallucination, the rap part was so depressingly good!

An utter masterpiece!

I was completely blown away with this drama. Shin Se Gi, Ahn Yo Sub, Ahn Yo Na, Perry Park, Na Na, Mr. X and Cha Do Hyun; Ji Sung really outdid himself with his portrayals of each. Every time he snot cried (and it was a lot), I felt that. Had me feeling like they were all different people. I got emotionally attached to each personality and sympathized with them. I completed this drama about a week ago and I still get choked up just thinking about how well this drama was done. The FL was a little strange but I still loved her and I really felt for Park Seo Joon’s Oh Ri On, even thought it was a little weird. Everyone in this drama did a superb job. Easily in my top 5 list of best dramas. Bravo! Now I need to go watch every Ji Sung drama in existence.

Overall it was a bitter sweet drama.
The first few episodes are filled with laughter, but towards the end it gets quite depressing....

The sotry line was great, it kept me interested through out the series, many unexpected plot twists.

The cast did a surperb job, espicialy JiSung- playing 7 different charcters.

The OST is perfect. I'm in love with 'auditory hallucination', it always makes me sad every time it comes on.

Comments (spoilers):
Idek how the female lead could forgive the male lead about her childhood, plus she also indirectly forgave his father. If I were her I don't think I would forgive them at all :((
The characters relationship is confusing so I googled a relationship chart, but one of them said Cha KiJoon is interested in RiJin, so I watched the series waiting for KiJoon to fall for her, but it didn't happen. So for the people who is looking at the same chart I did, don't have false hopes :)

It was a little confusing for me for a while. The multiple personality storyline I knew was coming but it came up quickly and I guess I wasn't expecting it or something. Not sure. Nevertheless, it was handled really well. There's a bit of suspension of disbelief regarding how the doctor who isn't a doctor yet gets to take care of this very sick man, but whatever, it works and I was sucked into it. Ji Sung

Ji Sung does a fantastic job acting the various other personalities. My heart was broken into a million pieces as he works through their origins and extinctions. Hwang Jung Eum carried a big load as well and she did it flawlessly. She was funny, competent and believable. Together they were on point emotionally and their chemistry was perfect.

Park Seo Joon supports the pair so well as the brother who knows more than is good for him and his sister. His struggles tore at my heartstrings almost more than the main couple. UGH. Don't make me cry. But cry I did. A lot...and I'm not really a crier. I was happy to shed tears for this one, though. Totally worth it.

so goooooooooooooooood

this drama was really good. the story was compelling, the acting was great (the male lead was EXCELLENT). I cried a lot , I laughed a lot I couldn't ask for more.

plot: a psychiatrist randomly meets a person affected by did and finds out their are connected by their traumatic past. they met in their childhood and were abused by the same person. they decide to collaborate to resolve their own personal traumas and end up falling in love.

the different personalities were interesting and portraited really well by the actor.
I absolutely recommend this drama

Stick with it past the first couple of episodes

It really is worth it, I promise. The FL stops shrieking (there really is no other word for it) whenever something happens and isn't so much of a ditz later on. I came very, very close to dropping this drama because of her but I'm very glad I didn't. That being said, she never really grew on me as a character.

The 9.0 rating I gave for acting is based on both Ji Sung and Park Seo Joon. Ji Sung does a great job of playing multiple, very different characters and Park Seo Joon is adorable and funny.

I feel the sountrack is dated and repetitive, but it didn't ruin the show for me.
