Han Jin U, Korea's top medical examiner, leads a team of experts in conducting a medical crime investigation after strange events and mysterious deaths occur in a hospital. He first clashes with but is later aided by Kang Gyeong Hui, an attractive female detective who possesses excellent skill in martial arts and a strong sense of justice.
Although not obviously similar, the ML in both of these is a doctor and a criminal, and both shows have you debating the morality of his character. With a partial prison setting, and a partial medical setting, both shows hold a high suspense, psychological tension and interesting premise. I highly recommend both of these.
