The Third Hospital is a medical drama that aired in 2012 and was produced by CJ Entertainment. The series follows the story of a rivalry between two brothers who are both skilled doctors with different philosophies. The main character, Kim Doo-hyun, played by Kim Seung-woo, is a neurosurgeon who believes in Western medicine and is on the verge of a major breakthrough in his research on the treatment of brain tumors. On the other hand, his younger brother Kim Seung-hyun, played by Oh Ji-ho, is a Traditional Korean Medicine doctor who believes in a more holistic approach to medicine.

The tension between the two brothers becomes increasingly intense as they both have to work at the same hospital, The Third Hospital, which specializes in the treatment of neurological diseases. They clash in their approaches to patient care, and their rivalry is fueled by their past history and personal beliefs.

Adding to the drama is the presence of another doctor, Jin Hye-in, played by Kim Min-joung. Hye-in is a former love interest of Doo-hyun who is now the director of the hospital. Hye-in also becomes a love interest for Seung-hyun, which further complicates the brothers' relationship.

Another character that brings an interesting dynamic to the show is Lee Eui-jin, played by Girls' Generation member Sooyoung. Eui-jin is a medical resident who is ambitious and determined to succeed in her career but is struggling to find her place within the hospital hierarchy.

Throughout the series, the doctors tackle difficult medical cases involving neurological diseases and try to find a compromise between their vastly different approaches to medicine. In addition, they face personal challenges and conflicts, including love triangles, family secrets, and professional jealousy.

The Third Hospital was praised for its realistic portrayal of medical situations and its exploration of different medical philosophies. The show also highlighted the importance of collaboration and communication between doctors from different backgrounds and specialties.

Overall, The Third Hospital is a gripping medical drama that weaves together personal and professional conflicts, unique medical cases, and the exploration of different medical philosophies. The dynamic relationships between the characters and their commitment to their patients create an intense and engaging storyline that keeps viewers hooked until the very end.
