The latest Doctor Slump episode 11 began with Yeo Jeong-Woo and Nam Ha-Neul spending quality time with each other, renewing their relationship. They throw lovey-dovey compliments at each other before going home. Jeong-Woo headed for the rooftop where he rented her family’s apartment. Meanwhile, Ha-Neul’s family wondered what made her so happy.

The new couple decided to talk all night to each other. Jeong-Woo suggested they have some jajangmyeon (cold noodles) at his house. Ha-Neul secretly stole some green onion kimchi (fermented cabbage) and smartly escaped her mother to head to Jeong-Woo’s room. The duo ate the food before sleeping together. The following day, however, Ha-Neul’s mother, Gong Wol-Seon, caught him sleeping with a woman, without being unaware that it was her own daughter.

Meanwhile, Ha-Neul escaped her family’s eyes by pretending to come home from a jog. The same morning, Lee Hong-Ran gave Dr. Bin Dae-Young her son’s gift for him. She also brought macaroons for his daughter as an expression of gratitude for helping her. Jeong-Woo and Ha-Neul resumed work at Dae-Young’s office, promising to keep their relationship a secret.

However, Ha-Neul was upset that Jeong-Woo claimed to be single in front of the female employees. Even Jeong-Woo was upset about her silence over her mother’s confrontation. The duo got into an argument after lunch with the employees. Their fights worsened after the bus ride when Jeong-Woo, by accident, sat on the seat Ha-Neul saved for herself. The duo wanted to contact each other throughout the night, but let it be.

The following morning, Gong Wol-Seon found out that her daughter slept with Jeong-Woo. Instead of being angry, she accepted the relationship and approved Jeong-Woo. Meanwhile, Ha-Neul had booked a restaurant for her mother’s birthday. It turned out that Wol-Seon had called Jeong-Woo as well. He brought her flowers, and she expressed her approval to both of them, and felt happy over Ha-Neul’s progress in life. Moreover, both Jeong-Woo and Ha-Neul resolved their argument.

After an argument with his daughter, Dae-Young felt upset over being unable to bond with her. Then, Hong-Ran met him and helped him repair his relationship with his daughter. Not only did she give sound advice, but helped him shop for his daughter’s lingerie.

At night, Jeong-Woo spoke to Ha-Neul about his family dynamics. Ha-Neul confessed to meeting his mother back in high school. Apparently, his mother was more concerned about his success in his studies than his health. Jeong-Woo expressed that his parents always only cared about their image, considering they were both esteemed cardiothoracic surgeons. When they were still the same after Jeong-Woo went through the scandal, he understood that they may never understand or support him.

Jeong-Woo further mentioned that he’d expressed his concerns to his senior, Min Kyung-Min, before he found out about how the latter used Ha-Neul to gain a better position. This didn’t sit well with Ha-Neul, who further enquired about their relationship. Jeong-Woo recalled that he found Kyung-Min odd at times. There was a time when Kyung-Min spiked his drink, leading Jeong-Woo to end up in the hospital. Initially, Jeong-Woo thought it was a dream, but after what happened with Ha-Neul, he realized it might have been true.

On the other hand, Kyung-Min became the director of a hospital and struck a deal with a prominent hospital chief about being their pharmaceutical supplier. Meanwhile, Ha-Neul visited her psychiatrist, who claimed she’d improved significantly. After her visit, Ha-Neul spent more time with Jeong-Woo, feeling grateful for their relationship. However, they were completely unaware of the issues ahead because of Kyung-Min.

By the end of the episode, Kyung-Min had a visitor. Jeong-Woo’s assistant from the hospital gave him the crucial evidence that found him not guilty during the scandal. He visited Kyung-Min to remind the latter of a promise he made.
