It is not every day that a K-drama gets an average viewership rating of 38.8%.

The love stories of Yoo Si Jin- Kang Mo Yeon and Dae Young-Yoon Myungji are to this day legendary. Kang Mo Yeon is a really hardworking cardiothoracic surgeon at Haesung Hospital who has morals that even your parents might not have thought you!
She believes that capability overrides all the connections you have in the world but is soon proven wrong. Kang Mo Yeon’s life completely changes when she meets the caption of the alpha team of Korea, Yoo Si Jin. Yoo Si Jin cares about the protection of the country’s people more than what his superiors have to say, which of course, lands him into trouble sometimes. Even with all the odds against them, Yoo Si Jina and Kang Moyeon form a special bond.
