Storyline

Though Kim Tae-hyun (Joo Won) - code name Yong Pal - is a talented surgeon, he offers his medical skills to those who cannot go for treatments publicly. Tae-hyun is desperate to earn money for his sister's medical bills.

He is soon being recruited to join a team of corrupt physicians to look after Han Yeo-jin (Kim Tae-hee). Yeo-jin is a chaebol heiress who is under medical induced coma. Her half-brother Han Do-joon (Jo Hyun-jae) is the mastermind behind it as he is going after Han family's inheritance.

My View

I choose to watch YP due to a scene on trailer whereby Yeo-jin attends her own funeral leaving everyone in shock.
