A romantic comedy drama filled with laughter and emotion, Sleeping Doctor follows Hong Gyeong, a promising psychiatrist who cannot cure her own illness, and Nam Ji O, a pay doctor known as the “Hwa-ta” of the hospital world for his exceptional memory. After experiencing sexual violence, Hong Gyeong believes she has overcome her trauma and opens the private clinic she has long dreamed of. However, she is unable to treat patients due to narcolepsy, which causes her to fall asleep whenever she stands before them. As she struggles to keep her clinic running, she meets Nam Ji O, a “munchkin” doctor who has mastered medical knowledge across all departments. Together, they fight to survive the neighborhood clinic scene as self-employed doctors, healing each other and gradually stepping out of the trauma that resurfaces along the way, while growing into love.
