Plot:

Park Shi-on is a pediatric surgery medical resident who is an autistic savant. The hospital officials are hesitant to give him a job at the hospital because of his condition. They give him 6 months to prove himself. He has to overcome many struggles along the way.

There is a remake of this drama that aired in the USA starting in 2017 on the ABC network.


**I really enjoyed this drama. The main character had to endure a lot of hardship in his life. I didn't like how he was treated by a lot of people especially his dad. There are a lot of sad and funny moments. I won't give away anything, but there is a really good ending.  I am also watching the American version. Both versions have a main character with autism. I can see the similarities between the two.

I definitely recommend this drama!
