She shares a flat with two men, Jo Dong Min, her supervisor and mentor, and Park Su Gwang, who has Tourette's syndrome (a neurological disorder characterized by motor and vocal tics). She has a phobia of men because she saw her mother cheat on her father. But Jang Jae Yeol could change it.
Synopsis

During a televised debate, he will meet Ji Hae Su, a psychiatrist in her first year of internship at the University Hospital, who chose psychiatry because she did not want to have to perform surgery. After meeting Jae Yeol, Hae Su's life will undergo great changes and as a result of various circumstances, both find themselves having to share the same roof…
Spring: Nautiljon
Human relations
When we embark on this drama, we are far from suspecting that a romance can be so difficult and complicated. However, Ji Hae Su and Jang Jae Yeol will have to put their love to the test. And this is precisely what we appreciate in this drama that is somewhat out of the clichés (the rich man falling in love with the poor girl for example) recurring romantic dramas. Here, we follow the problems encountered by the young woman with her patients, and which are far from easy to treat. The difficulty of the writer to write a good book by finding inspiration is also one of the subjects. The attractiveness of the story is based on the relationships of each protagonist and their entourage, each encouraging and helping each other in case of need or emergency. The past, however, is the main source of many ailments and one of the main causes of the pains and disorders encountered by the various characters. We are surprised to have empathy for Jang Jae Beom the violent older brother of Jang Jae Yeol who is cornered by a childhood he is far from having chosen. He didn't even have his mother's support…As you will have understood, the medical side is very present but is in no way a gene since it is mainly a question of psychology. Those who do not like to see blood shed or operations will not balk at seeing it.
Love and hope
As in any story we also need a small dose of love and marshmallow. Moreover, the healing of patients is not only due to the treatments they take. The love of a family, a lover or friendship allows this beneficial change. And it is not Jang Jae Yeol or Park Su Gwang who will complain about it on the contrary! Thanks to love, the feeling of hope is born in patients who finally see the end of the tunnel. Moreover, the character of Han Kang Wu is already more interesting. Indeed, this high school student is not what he seems to be… we realize it well before Jae Yeol or Hae Su, which still gives us a big shock when we discover the truth behind this character. The parents of the young woman are just as sorry especially the father, as well as the mother of our writer who has trouble remembering the fire of her old house. As for Jae Yeol, we like his slightly schizophrenic character who ignores himself. A story that pleases by its values, its way of seeing things and its ost of quality easily mingling with the most important moments of the plot.
A medical universe larger than life for a unique romance! The drama is available on TF1 Xtra or on Dramapassion.
