The story, without the spoilers.
Yeo Jeong-woo was the most popular plastic surgeon in Korea, a star who had everything, until a mysterious medical accident destroyed his career and his reputation in a single day. Nam Ha-neul was the brightest student of her generation, a doctor who worked so hard she forgot how to live, until burnout and depression forced her to stop. They were rivals in high school, competing for first place in everything. Now they are neighbours on a rooftop, two people at rock bottom with nothing left to lose and nobody else who understands. As they share meals, failures and small acts of kindness, rivalry slowly turns into something warmer. Doctor Slump aired on JTBC from January 27, 2024, in sixteen episodes, starring Park Hyung-sik and Park Shin-hye. It is a gentle romance about burnout, healing and the relief of meeting someone at your worst. The two leads make the quiet moments matter more than any medical case.
A little curiosity. A new favourite.
