I’m sure you’re all tired of me writing reviews where
I give the dramas really horrible reviews. Sometimes though writing those kind
of reviews are easy, because when writing about something I really like, my
thoughts get all cluttered because I can’t help but think of all the things I
liked about it.
Kill Me, Heal Me was an amazing drama let me just
start off by saying that. I really liked this drama. It starred Ji Sung, Hwang
Jung Eun, Park Seo Joon, and Kim Yoo Ri. I didn’t know Ji Sung before
this drama
and I’m so glad that I watched it because WOW was he amazing.The whole plot was about Cha Do Hyun (Ji Sung) who had
DID which is Dissociative Identity Disorder. He had seven, yes, 7 different
personalities. I want to tell you all of them, but I feel like it would give so
much away, so I won’t. If you really want to know go and look it up, that way
you can’t say it wasn't me who gave you all the spoilers. You did it to yourself!
For shame! All these personalities were created due to a
childhood trauma and the need to save the person he loved the most. Yes it
sounds a little corny, but trust me it’s not. He is the chaebol to this company
that his grandmother is currently running. No one in his family knows of his
condition; they wouldn’t want anyone to find and they would remove him from
the company if they knew. So he keeps it all a secret as he is forced to run
the company; he really doesn’t want to, he just wants to get better. In order to help himself further he requests an onset
doctor. Oh Ri Jin decides to be that doctor and with the help of her and her
adorable brother he figures out and remembers his childhood trauma and
overcomes all of the personalities.
OH SNAP PLOT TWIST, she’s connected to his past. It
gets so intense. I mean really intense. Okay, let’s see cons of this drama. They made Ji Sung
cry a lot! Like, there was so much crying. I mean things were pretty damn
emotional, but he cried a lot, too much. I can’t think of other cons, it’s probably
because I’m so biased. Hold on let me look at this objectively. I liked
everything about this drama except the ending honestly. I really didn’t like
the ending, and it’s not for a reason like You’re
Beautiful. I’ll get to that in a bit, and don’t worry I won’t give any
spoilers. Promise. I think something that bothered me about this drama,
was the story of his first love and his cousin, she was a wishy washy character
and you didn’t get to his cousin a lot. I think because they showed bits and
pieces of their “personal” story I wanted more even though the show wasn’t
supposed to be about them. I wanted to see more of the struggles they were
going through as a couple because I know they were. Also the ending where he
talks to her (you’ll know what I’m talking about if you watch it or have seen
it) you don’t really get much of a reaction from her. She just walks down some
goddamn stairs, like he just told you some real shit, you walk down some
stairs. They don’t talk
about her after that. I think that was it honestly, everything else I pretty
much liked (excluding the ending), the acting was pretty on point.
The plot was really good too, I know for a little while it was compared to
Hyde, Jekyll and Me, but it wasn’t even close. The plots were different, the
trauma was different and the characters were totally different. I guess they
mean in terms of being a show about DID and their main character being in
charge of a large company, but I mean I didn’t think it was the same at all. Okay, now on to this horrible ending. I’m going to try
my best to tell you without any spoilers. It’s going to be hard so… bear with
me here. The ending didn’t sum up everything well at all that was my biggest
problem with this drama. If they gave it at least one more episode I think I
would have given it a perfect score. Sometimes the ending really matters, I say
that in this case it was half and half. It was great, but the ending if better
would have made it perfect.
The ending didn’t sum up the things that were going on
with his mother, nor his cousin and uncle. If you watch it you’ll know they
were, well the uncle more so was a scumbag. At one point he was on the phone
and they were asking him when he was coming back to Korea… but he was in Korea
the whole time. I’m just saying if you run that large a corporation where you
can kidnap people you should be able to find your son. Also Oh Ri Jin’s parents
were still calling him Perry Park. Which isn’t his name. So I just wanted to
know if they ever told the parents about anything that was going on. It was small things, and it might seem like I’m
nitpicking, but they could have easily done some of that one more episode and
BANG perfect, but they left us hanging with some small minor details. It’s okay
though. It really is. If you’re looking for a melodrama that keeps you on
the edge of your seat and clicking next before the small timer with the seconds
run out watch Kill Me, Heal Me. There
are a lot of plot twist and the plot twist are always jaw dropping.

I give this drama 4.7 G-Dragon heads out of 5 the .3
points were that missing episode. As you can see it’s relevant, but not really. After all the other not so good dramas this one really
just… helped me keep the faith, so… consider me healed.
