There was a male student who never missed the top spot in his high school, which is known for having the best students in Seoul, and a female student who was the top student in her high school in Busan, which is known for having the best students in Busan. One day, the female student from Busan transferred to the male student's school, and they met.

14 years later, the male student, Yeo Jeong-woo, and the female student, Nam Ha-neul, are now doctors. However, they were not the kind of successful doctors we usually think of. Yeo Jeong-woo was a 'star doctor' who appeared on TV and even filmed commercials, but he was in danger of losing everything after being involved in a medical accident. Meanwhile, Nam Ha-neul was diagnosed with depression due to the stress of working as a doctor and quit her job.

The two, who had lived lives that others would envy but had fallen to the bottom and were experiencing a 'slump', met by chance. Looking at each other, they were reminded of their beautiful youth, and the two in the same situation began to rely on each other, even feeling an inexplicable flutter.

In Korea, if you study well, you almost always go to medical school. It's because you can make a lot of money by becoming a doctor. In Korea, where academic elitism is still prevalent, many people mistakenly believe that you can live a successful life if you just become a doctor. Of course, it's a difficult job, but there is also a materialistic aspect of it, where people think it's okay because they make much more money than other jobs.

The two main characters, Yeo Jeong-woo and Nam Ha-neul, seemed to be living successful lives as doctors, but they ended up falling into a slump. It's a job that saves others, but they couldn't save their own lives. It's interesting to see what kind of help they will be to each other when they reunite by chance.

The romantic comedy drama "Doctor Slump" is expected to offer a lot of empathy and comfort to modern people who are living busy lives without time to catch their breath and to modern people who are in a slump in their lives. You can watch it on Netflix and other streaming services.
