Not What the Doctor Ordered

Yeong-Ha is a highly skilled practitioner of traditional Korean medicine whose thriving career takes a sudden downturn when his status as an omega becomes public knowledge. As patients abandon his clinic, he struggles to maintain his livelihood and professional reputation. Living next door is Pureum, a teenage student overwhelmed by the mounting pressures of university entrance exams. Complicating Pureum’s academic focus is his intense, secret infatuation with his attractive older neighbor, leaving the young man caught between his studies and his distracting feelings. Everything changes when Yeong-Ha administers one of his specialized energy-boosting tonics to Pureum, inadvertently triggering a shocking biological transformation. The remedy unexpectedly shifts the teenager's designation from a beta into a newly awakened alpha. Bound by the unforeseen consequences of his own medical practice, Yeong-Ha finds himself compelled to take full responsibility for this unprecedented miracle. As the doctor attempts to manage the fallout, he is drawn into a deeply complicated dynamic with Pureum, navigating uncharted territory in ways neither of them could have ever anticipated.
