The story of an idealistic and naive surgeon in the modern world. His career is over when he fights with the head of the hospital and his boss hooks up with his girlfriend. His heart is broken, and he has no hope. And his boss, the professor, had him killed by stabbing him with a knife. But it turns out that he didn’t die. Instead, he woke up in a younger body in the murim (persilat) world during the three kingdom periods.
He wakes up in the body of Wonhwa, who is a medical student going home to see his sick mother. On the way, he passed by a village where thieves were taking things. When the thieves left, many people were hurt.
He is a reincarnation of a surgeon, so of course his memories from when he was a medical student are still in his head. So he had to act quickly to help people who were hurt. He cleaned the victim’s wound and stitched it up with a needle and some thread. A lot of people were saved.
When he got home, he met his first brother, Hwabok, who was a student, and his second brother, Hwabuk, who loved martial arts. When they saw their sick mother, Woonhwa’s eyes opened up and he could see like an X-ray. Dan knows that his mother has a tumor in her stomach.
Had thrown up, and that his mom needed surgery. His two older brothers were, of course, very surprised. Surgery wasn’t known yet, so getting an operation meant dying. Woonhwa kept quiet because he thought he needed time to gain his brother’s and mother’s trust and set up the tools he would need.
Woonhwa walked to town to buy herbs and other medical supplies with the money his brother gave him. He bought liquor that was already there to use as a disinfectant. For herbal mixtures, he still needs to do tests, which he will do on rats. He had drawn up plans for surgical tools and planned to have a blacksmith make them.
During the trip, Woonhwa also watches the residents, most of whom are poor, and thinks about how to help them with their health problems. The money is gone after buying some alcohol and some drugs. Woonhwa runs into a poor family on the way home. The father of the family has a broken leg.
Then they took it to the family’s house and set up a shed behind it as a treatment room for the father. From then on, Woonhwa would practice at the Warehouse, especially when he was helping the poor people around him.
The boy whose father was in the hospital was too poor to pay the doctor, so he found rats to use in experiments. From now on, this child will work for Woonhwa.
As a doctor, Woonhwa’s name began to spread. He once disagreed with a famous healer about how to treat someone, but in the end, Woonhwa was seen as a teacher. Woonhwa also saw the healer as a teacher, especially when it came to traditional methods. This means that they teach each other things. In fact, Woonhwa’s sketch was used by the healer to order the surgery equipment.
When he saved the lives of many soldiers fighting near his village, Woonhwa’s achievements were once again the talk of the town. Even a general from the Namgung Clan came to him for help. As a thank you, the Namgung Clan taught Woonhwa their silat styles.
Woonhwa’s achievements went through the roof when he was able to treat a prostitute with a venereal disease. From there, a group of companies went to Woonhwa to get better, which they did.
Then, when Woonhwa’s two older brothers agreed that he was smart and the medicine and tools were ready, he was able to operate on his mother.
Woonhwa also got into the inner circle of power in the royal family because the conglomerate, who had gotten over the disease, told him to treat his younger sister, who was also the king’s consort.
All of the royal doctors said that the empress was weak because she was so far along in her pregnancy. Because the empress really wanted to have children, Woonhwa checked it out and found that it was a tumor.
After being saved, this made the healers very angry, especially the king. Woonhwa was put in jail in the end.
Woonhwa is finally free after some time in prison and a few tricks. The empress also got help from Woonhwa and got better. Woonhwa turned down the chance to be a royal physician because he thought power was hard to understand and only wanted to be a doctor.
Woonhwa, who was not part of the royal circle, also felt more free to move to stop the evil healers’ plot. After a while, the empress got sick again, this time because she was poisoned. It turned out that the bad healers were the ones who gave the poison.
When someone does something bad, their whole family is usually killed, too. Woonhwa told the king that only the guilty people should be killed, not the king’s family. The healer was very thankful and told Woonhwa that another person was also trying to kill him.
Royal officials will always treat Woonhwa like a gang leader. At that time, he tried to get his first brother, who didn’t want to pay bribes and kept failing the test, to become a royal official. The king believed Woonhwa when he said that his brother was good.
The next chapter will probably have more to do with royal intrigue. But in this Manhwa, all the mystery moves quickly and often ends up being funny. ***
