Plot
[edit]Jung Erae, a college student who is clueless about romantic relationships to the point of driving anyway any man she's dated, is fascinated by a flyer of a self-proclaimed love doctor, Cha Yoon. She goes to the doctor in hopes of finally learning everything about dating but instead starts developing newfound feelings for this so-called doctor.
Reception
[edit]Kat Calamia, writing for Popverse, praised The Love Doctor for being a "relatable queer story as Erae discovers what it means to love, and the book tackles what it means to find out you're queer."[2] Francisca Santos, writing for We Got This Covered, included The Love Doctor in their 15 best romance manhwa, remarking that "Albeit with a slight love triangle (or quadrangle), The Love Doctor completely appeals to every romance fan aiming to find a well-structured and gorgeous story to be introduced to the world of GL manhwa."[3] The Comic Book Resources similarly included the series in their "25 Top Manhwa You Need To Read".[4]
