K-Drama Style: Ji Chang Wook's Sophisticated AllSaints Jacket In 'Healer'

The KBS2 action melodrama “Healer” concluded on February 10 with a climactic airport showdown. Episode 20 opened with a captivating scene where the "Healer" stars Ji Chang Wook, Park Min Young, Yoo Ji Tae, and Kim Mi Kyung reunite in the airport to draw out the corrupt organization known as The Farmers. Each actor is costumed in variations on the classic trench coat but fans have expressed great interest in Ji Chang Wook's outfit.

On February 12, the Korean outlet E Today reported on the actor's chic airport look. The statement piece of his outfit is the full-length Gunner Mac jacket in Sand, from the East London fashion house, AllSaints.

The military-inspired jacket features black sleeves which provides contrast against the khaki garment.

“Healer” viewers in Korea have expressed their love of the jacket through social media. The statement, “'Healer' Ji Chang Wook looks really good,” was one of the most popular comments.

The action drama has helped to increase the actor's popularity. He had previously starred in dramas including “Hero” and “Empress Ki” but was best known by domestic audiences as a musical theater star. While musical theater roles in “Jack the Ripper” and “The Days” have bolstered his career, his portrayal of Emperor Huizong in “Empress Ki” propelled the actor into Hallyu stardom.

“Healer” maintained solid ratings, helping to generate more interest in the rising star. Upon completion of the drama he provided a statement to MBN where he said, “I'm happy to have completed this safely. More importantly, I'm very happy to have had the opportunity to work with such good people.”
