Synopsis[]
After King Gongmin of Goryeo (Ryu Deok Hwan) marries the Yuan princess, Noguk (Park Se Young), they return to Goryeo. On their way, they are attacked and the queen is fatally injured. According to the advice of his royal advisor, the king orders the Captain of the Royal Guard, Choi Young (Lee Min Ho), to pass through a mystical portal ("heaven's gate") and find the "heaven's doctor". Choi Young travels to the future and brings back Yoo Eun-soo (Kim Hee Sun), a modern-day doctor from Seoul, to save the queen's life. He promises that he will return her to her world once she saves the queen, but the royal advisor schemes and persuades King Gongmin to force Eun-soo to stay as she can be useful to him.
As Eun-soo accustoms herself to her new surroundings, she and Choi Young gradually fall in love with each other.

Constantly risking his life, Choi Young thwarts numerous attempts by Ki-chul and Deok-seung, who are out to have Eun-soo in their possession.
