'Time Slip Dr. Jin (2012)' is the Korean version of the Japanese drama 'JIN' (2009) and 'JIN2' (2011).
Both deal with medical, history and time slip.
While the Korean version plays more with the romance by adding a male character as love rival, the Japanese version gives a more acceptable reasoning to why the time travelling happen.

It has the same concept of time travel during the Edo era, but this is a more serious drama with more gist on the medical side.
Both dramas are about a person time travelling, ending up in Sengoku period. Both are based on famous manga. Both are very similar.
The two drama had an almost similar plot that is a doctor time-slipping between two different time periods. But in JIN's case, it was a modern doctor who ended up time-slipping towards the past. To be fair, I would've recc Dr. Jin that was a Korean adaptation of JIN for the sake of sticking to the same Korean setting but I might as well recc the original instead.
The story follows a brain surgeon named, Minakata Jin, who has spent the last two years in anguish, as his fiancee lies in a vegetative state after an operation he performed. One day, he faints at the hospital and awakens to find himself transported back in time to the Edo period. He is soon attacked by a samurai, but he escapes with the help of a man named Kyotaro. Kyotaro suffers a serious injury to the head while trying to protect him, but Jin manages to save his life despite a lack of proper medical equipment. Because of that, Kyotaro's sister Saki begins taking an interest in Jin and becomes his assistant. Meanwhile, Jin is determined to find a way back to the present.
