He gave one of his best roles in Worst of Evil. Not fan of Samdal-ri in the end although I liked the whole acting team (script was weak for me) and photography was stunning. He is a good actor, no doubt.

Ji Chang Wook's best roles (all of them) is when he is put out. Like some actresses cry super well, and their crying roles are their best body of work. Ji Chang Wook plays "frustration" amazingly,

He doesn't have to so much in Healer or Empress Ki, but Welcome to Samdal-ri, Suspicious Partner, Backstreet Rookie, Love struck in the city, he plays someone in all who "...can't even deal" but "...has to deal"
