Is Healer worth watching?

Yes — Healer is worth watching, holding a 85% Critic Score and 92% Audience Score on Celluloid. Its 85% Celluloid Score averages five independent sources: critic percentage, audience percentage, Metascore (74), IMDb (8.4/10) and aggregated fan rating (88%).

Created by Song Ji-na, Healer ran 1 season, 20 episodes on Netflix in Korean, from South Korea. Healer has ended, so you can watch the complete story without waiting on a renewal.

What is Healer about?

A night courier who takes any job for the right fee works alone by choice, guided only by a hacker he has never met face to face. A tabloid reporter chasing a story she does not yet understand and a celebrated anchorman with something to hide draw him into a case rooted in the 1980s, where five friends running a pirate radio station were destroyed by the state and, eventually, by one another.

Critics consensus: Song Ji-na builds a thriller that actually respects its own conspiracy, then lets a startlingly warm romance grow inside it — Ji Chang-wook’s dual register and the clean, unshowy action make this a durable gateway K-drama. The cast is led by Ji Chang-wook, Park Min-young, Yoo Ji-tae, Kim Mi-kyung, Park Sang-won, among others.

How many seasons of Healer are there, and where do I start?

Healer has 1 season, 20 episodes, and there is no reason to start anywhere but the first episode. At 1 season, 20 episodes, it is a single-season commitment you can finish in a week. The series page breaks the 85% Celluloid Score into its five sources so you can see exactly where critics and audiences disagree before committing.

Where can I watch Healer?

Healer is carried by Netflix, though rights are licensed by territory and change often. Check the Netflix hub for everything else on the same service, and the series page for the regions where Celluloid has confirmed availability.

What should I watch after Healer?
