Description:

Deserving of the Name is a captivating time-travel medical drama that follows Heo Im, a highly skilled doctor from the Joseon era. Despite his extraordinary medical talents, Heo Im faces constant frustration in his career because he was born into a low-status concubine family, preventing him from rising to higher government positions. Through a bizarre accident, he travels 400 years into the future, landing in modern-day Seoul. There, Heo Im encounters Yeon Gyung, a talented modern doctor who finds his behavior incredibly strange and wants nothing to do with him. Hoping to get rid of this weird man, Yeon Gyung tries to distance herself, but fate has other plans. Instead of parting ways, the mismatched duo is unexpectedly swept back through time to the Joseon era together. This thrilling adventure blends historical and modern medicine as two doctors from different worlds learn to work together, proving what it truly means to be deserving of the name of a healer.
