Speaking to her past self (did anyone else notice just who brilliantly Ji Sung imitated the little girl’s voice?) is cathartic, and sets off a wonderful healing chain reaction. Nana’s farewell was yet more closure for Rijin, and I really appreciate that the show isn’t playing down the fact that while Dohyun suffered more after the abuse, in the end it was Rijin that had to undergo the abuse and therefore needs just as much closure. X, in a process that showed just how they might have been formed in the first place. This episode was painful, to say the least, as we said goodbye to all the alters, including out very recent Mr. I truthfully don’t know whether I can bear to watch this drama again until after a while has passed. And Episode 20 was where it was all wrapped up with a bow on top. Episode19 was where ends began to tie up. Pain, sacrifice, love and sorrow wrung hearts throughout episodes 15-17 until Segi reappeared and stretched out his hand, after which all the alters took turns in ensuring that Dohyun’s happiness was safeguarded. Episode 14 was yet another turning point upon which all major secrets were revealed and Dohyun and Rijin broke down in agony. Throughout it was an undercurrent of tension, a frission of conflict, regarding Dohyun’s past and just who the child in the basement was. Episode 8 was where this took a turn towards the light and happy, with Rijin becoming Dohyun’s physician and Yona running around wreaking havoc and surprise kisses (*squeal*) and bouts of chasing after each other (literally and figuratively) and trying to tame Segi. The show’s tone began to change slightly as we wore into episodes 4-7, pain, self-hatred, fear, concern, family politics set a rather serious tone, broken only by the alters appearances and the trouble they caused. I liked it from the start, Ji Sung’s “I will come back…and break every single piece of your bone” had me gasping for air from how sexy that drawl was. Kill Me Heal Me started off as a comedy of sorts, with a rather violent first two episodes, some pretty fun engrish and much flitting between genres. Not only did Ji Sung and Hwang Jungeum rise above and beyond to make this show a success, they did it with such incredibly heart and passion that it’ll be a while before I forget this (if ever).
And one for which I’m profoundly, unbelievably grateful. Tossed and turned between actors and actresses, it was a surprise when an established pair suddenly clinched the lead roles. Kill Me Heal Me, was a production that by all rights should have been a failure. Let’s start with an overview of how far we’ve come before we get to the nitty gritties. I’m not even exaggerating in the slightest, my eyes feel raw.
