God’s Quiz (also known as Quiz of God) is a South Korean medical crime drama that aired on OCN. Created by Park Jae-beom, the series blends forensic science, rare diseases, and criminal investigations, making it one of Korea’s first dramas to explore this unique genre.
🔥 Story Overview
📍 The series follows Han Jin-woo (Ryu Deok-hwan), a genius but eccentric neurosurgeon and forensic doctor, who leads a team at Hankuk University’s forensic department.
📍 Together, they solve mysterious deaths and unravel cases involving rare diseases, often referred to as “quizzes from God.”
📍 Each season introduces new challenges, conspiracies, and personal struggles, as Jin-woo confronts both criminals and his own past.
🔥 Why It Stands Out
✅ Unique Concept: Combines medical drama, crime investigation, and mystery, with a focus on rare diseases. ✅ Complex Characters: Han Jin-woo’s brilliance and flaws make him a compelling protagonist. ✅ Intriguing Cases: Each episode tackles unusual medical phenomena, keeping viewers engaged. ✅ Long-Running Success: Spanning five seasons, the series evolved while maintaining its core appeal.
🔥 Reception & Legacy
📍 Premiered on October 8, 2010, and concluded on January 10, 2019, with a total of 62 episodes across five seasons2. 📍 Praised for its innovative storytelling and Ryu Deok-hwan’s performance, though later seasons faced criticism for inconsistent character development. 📍 It remains a cult favorite among fans of medical and crime dramas.
