Yes, based on a novel. But, there are stark differences. The introspective nature of the manhwa isn't as present in the novel - or so they say. I haven't read it. I've only seen spoilers of the story. The two are the same but, at the same time, quite different from each other. The manhwa is said to be more serious plus has a better way of showing character development. Also, the female doctor is a manhwa original and does not appear in the novel. If you wanna know her ending...so do the novel readers(/TДT)/
HI is this based on a novel? If yes anyone have link?
