Drama ‘Love Doctor’ follows romantic struggles of characters played by Choo Young-woo and Kim So-hyun

In the ENA and Disney+ series ‘Love Doctor’, characters Park Min-jae (played by Choo Young-woo) and Im Yu-jin (played by Kim So-hyun) face emotional hurdles following the start of their relationship. The narrative explores the complexities of their romance, including Min-jae’s desire to keep the relationship secret from lab colleagues and the tension caused by his close friendship with his first love, Cha Seo-hyun.

Conflict arises when Min-jae’s mother, Hong Eun-ju, meets Yu-jin and reacts subtly to Yu-jin’s family background. This leads to a moment of emotional distress for Yu-jin, who feels a sense of inadequacy compared to Min-jae’s mother, resulting in a heated exchange with her own mother.

Despite these setbacks, the two characters reaffirm their commitment to one another. The story highlights Min-jae’s journey as a former swimmer dealing with physical loss and his evolving ability to express sincere affection despite his social awkwardness.
