Los Protegidos is a Colombian telenovela aired since May 6, 2008 on Colombian TV network RCN. This telenovela is produced by Teleset and it was created as a counterweight for Caracol Televisión's new production El Cartel, but it was premiered before this last one in order to get a higher impact in the viewers.
Javier, a thirty-something doctor whose enthusiasm does not wane despite working in a chaotic emergency room, decides to move to the United States, because his beautiful, sophisticated and not so happy girlfriend Maria has convinced him to follow the American dream.
