Dr. Romantic (2016–2023): Season 3, Episode 10 - The Abuse of Justice - full transcript
Doldam Hospital receives news of a second collapse and Kim Sabu runs to the scene of the accident.
(The characters, places, organizations, and
events in this drama are works of fiction)
(Episode 10)
There seem to be
fragments of sand still in the wound.
Let's clean up the wound first.
It hurts.
Does it hurt anywhere else?
Were you hit in the head or chest
for example?
No.
Would you stop crying?
You're driving me crazy.
What if they're all dead?
Bumjae and our teacher are still
under there.
Gosh, this is so annoying.
Painful, hard times began…
for both the people
who couldn't make it out,
and the people who made it out.
Nurse, could you finish this up for me?
Nurse Eom.
Do you think the students reached
their guardians?
Nurse Eom.
Dr. Areum.
What do we do?
Why? What is it now?
Along with the first two victims
of the initial collapse,
two paramedics
and two members of the medical team
are now buried under the rubble.
It is not yet known
whether they are alive or not.
As it is difficult to maneuver
heavy equipment in old concrete
that may collapse at the slightest touch,
search and rescue has been slowing down.
He's not answering.
Why aren't you answering?
(Dr. Jang Donghwa)
Dr. Jang Donghwa.
What's going on out there?
Dr. Jung.
What do we do?
What are we going to do?
(2 Medical Staff, 2 Paramedics
Buried in Second Collapse)
(Status of Their Survival Uncertain)
What do you mean it collapsed again?
Then what about Seo Woojin
and Park Euntak?
They say they're still in there,
Master Kim.
Right-angle clamps, please.
- Master Kim!
- What's the current situation?
Did you speak to anyone at the site?
I can't get a hold of Chief Jang.
I think he's too busy handling
the situation with Disaster Headquarters.
I talked to Dr. Jang just now,
but he just keeps crying.
Dr. Yoon Areum.
It can't be.
The news is wrong about…
Nurse Euntak and Dr. Woojin.
Right?
Master Kim.
Return to your station.
There's no need to be uneasy.
Go back to your station, Dr. Yoon.
Master Kim.
Nothing is official yet,
so don't assume anything.
Don't jump to conclusions
and discourage yourself.
Not until…
I go check it out myself.
Until then,
go back to your stations
and do your jobs, got it?
- All right, cut.
- Cut.
I've taken care of the spleen,
so we'll temporarily close the stomach.
Are you able to take care
of the hemothorax alone, Dr. Cha?
Yes, of course.
All right, I will be leaving now.
Thank you for your work.
Scalpel, please.
Hemovac, please.
Nurse Oh.
- What did you say?
- Hemovac, please.
Yes, Doctor.
I'm sorry.
Something seemed to be going on outside.
Kelly.
- All right, cut.
- Cut.
(Defendant)
(Bu Yongju)
Pick up the phone, you bastard.
(Bu Yongju)
The person you are calling--
The complaining party
should put up
with the shortage of medical staff
due to useless lawsuits like this.
Master Kim.
Don't say a single word!
I won't listen to you.
You may throw stones
at my decision right now,
but I'll just take them.
I have to go.
My car is waiting outside.
I'm still the Director.
I'll take care of the hospital,
so go, Master Kim.
Go…
and bring the two doctors back.
(Volume 10
The Abuse of Justice)
Dr. Seo.
Dr. Seo!
Dr. Seo, wake up!
Dr. Seo!
Can you hear me, Dr. Seo?
Are you conscious?
Don't move.
Nurse Euntak.
What's wrong with my hand?
Don't move. Don't even flinch.
Wait one moment.
Why are you guys here?
Is there another patient to operate on?
Well…
Try not to freak out.
There was another accident
at the collapse site.
And Dr. Seo Woojin and Nurse Euntak…
…were inside the building.
(Nurse Park Euntak)
The person you are calling is
unavailable--
Excuse me.
Yes, what kind of patient…
I stopped by because I was worried.
Are you okay, Dr. Yoon?
Nurse Oh.
I'm sorry.
I know I shouldn't do this in the ER.
No, it's okay.
Doctors are humans too.
They're allowed to cry as well.
It's okay.
It's going to be okay.
It collapsed and the kids--
Excuse me.
I'm sorry. Excuse me.
Let me through, please.
- Master Kim?
- Yes, it's me, Master Kim.
Hey, Mr. Jang!
Master Kim.
What is going on?
I'm really sorry.
I couldn't stop
the two of them from going in.
This is all my fault.
Chief Park.
Master Kim.
How is the rescue going?
We've been trying to get in contact
with them since the accident,
but we got no response yet.
So we don't know
whether they're alive or not?
It may take some time
before we can determine that.
Due to the risk of further collapse,
the outer and right walls
are under inspection.
I'm planning to make an entry route
as soon as it's secured.
For now, you should
go back to the hospital and wait.
Nurse Euntak.
Dr. Seo Woojin.
Nurse Park Euntak.
Dr. Seo Woojin.
Nurse Park Euntak!
Dr. Seo Woojin.
Nurse Park Euntak!
Dr. Seo Woojin.
Nurse Park Euntak.
You guys are okay, right?
Master Kim.
Come on.
Answer, you guys!
Seo Woojin.
Park Euntak!
Seo Woojin!
Park Euntak!
Master Kim.
Master Kim.
Nurse Euntak? Dr. Seo Woojin?
Dr. Seo--
Who is this?
Is this Nurse Euntak?
Yes, Master Kim. It's Euntak.
Are the other people with you?
How are the other people?
What about Seo Woojin?
What about the rescuers?
Everyone is alive.
- They're alive!
- Yes!
Thank goodness.
But…
there are three injured.
Tell me the situation.
There's a REBOA patient
and an unconscious male student.
His level of consciousness
doesn't look good.
Vitals are 100/70. Heart rate 110.
The male student has been losing
consciousness
right after the second collapse.
Any signs of trauma?
There are no signs or symptoms of trauma.
The torso is fine too.
Oh.
There are signs
of acanthosis nigricans in the neck area.
Check the blood sugar level first.
Also, didn't you say
that three people were hurt?
Who's the last person?
It's Dr. Seo Woojin.
Rebar
in the fallen structure pierced
the back of Dr. Seo's left hand and wrist
while he was trying
to protect the REBOA patient.
Is he conscious?
Dr. Seo is conscious,
but the REBOA patient
is still unconscious.
Put Seo Woojin on the phone.
Can you respond, Seo Woojin?
Yes, Master Kim.
How is the pain?
I think the nerves were struck.
It hurts a lot.
And the person below you?
He's not conscious yet,
but it looks like the rebar
that pierced my wrist
has pierced the patient's chest.
Stay where you are for now.
One wrong move and you might
damage your nerves even more.
Stay as still as you can.
Don't try to do anything.
Wait until I get down there.
No, Master Kim!
What if things become worse
while you're down there?
Chief Park.
- How fast can you open up a path?
- Master Kim!
I understand how you feel,
but it's dangerous for you to go yourself.
I can't allow it.
Weren't you listening?
A rebar that pierced a doctor's wrist
is stuck in a person's chest.
One wrong move
and a surgeon might lose his hand
and a patient might lose his life.
To save them both,
I have no choice but to go down myself
to take care of them.
Still, you can't go down yourself,
Master Kim.
Is the reason why I can't
be more serious than saving their lives?
All right.
Give me an answer.
Are you going to save them or not?
(Gangwon-Do Jeongseon-Gun Jungha-Ro
Redevelopment Committee)
Hello, sir.
- He's here.
- Hello.
- Hello, sir.
- Where's Assemblywoman Ko Kyungsook?
She's still in the collapsed building.
Have you heard from her?
We haven't heard from her
since it collapsed again not too long ago.
What is the rescue team doing?
That's what I have been asking.
It's this way, sir.
- Please make way.
- Out of the way.
(Police line - Under investigation)
He's the commanding officer.
Hello, sir.
Is Assemblywoman Ko still in there?
Yes, we're still searching right now.
We're currently trying to rescue
the male student, the academy teacher,
and the medical staff
after they were confirmed to be alive.
Don't you know your work priorities?
You should have rescued
Assemblywoman Ko as soon as possible.
What do you people think you're doing?
There are young students
and a teacher
who tried to save the students down there.
The medical staff that ran in
to save them are also down there.
Where is the priority there?
Hey, Chief!
Are you lecturing me?
There are reporters nearby.
They'll hear you
if you speak too loud.
Thank you for your hard work.
Well, report the situation.
Wait, sir.
Sir!
Thank you for your hard work.
Keep up the good work.
(Rescue and control team
On-site command post)
Shouldn't rescuing come first
instead of reporting in these situations?
He should stay behind a desk
if he wants a report.
Why the heck is he coming
to the site and asking for a report?
It's not like we have time
on our hands. This is an abuse of power.
Are you okay?
- Please help me with this.
- Okay.
One, two…
Paramedic Heo.
Master Kim.
Did you check the blood sugar level?
It was at 60 earlier,
but I'll check again.
Master Kim.
Is that you, Nurse Euntak?
There, there.
All right.
How are your injuries?
I'm fine, but Dr. Woojin is really hurt.
Where is he?
Woojin.
Master Kim.
Yes.
This patient…
It's been an hour since the REBOA.
It was a partial REBOA,
but we can't delay any longer.
As of now, there's only one option.
We have to pull
the rebar out of your wrist.
What if something happens
to Dr. Seo's nerves?
Please take it out.
Dr. Seo.
He could die
if we delay any longer.
Then all of this…
would become meaningless.
Please take it out, Master Kim.
Darn it.
Are you okay?
Hey, Jang Donghwa.
Why did you come down here?
To see if I could help…
Hey.
If you're going to stand there
with that look, go back up.
I don't want to.
Go back up!
No, I will not go back up.
You little--
This student's blood sugar
level is too low, Master Kim!
He's in hypoglycemic shock.
Jang Donghwa,
hurry up and grab an IV with 50 DW.
You can do that, right?
- Yes, Master Kim.
- Hurry up and go!
Master Kim.
Woojin.
It will be unbearably painful.
I understand.
When this rebar is cut,
the vibration can cause more damage
to the already damaged nerves.
Yes.
In the worst-case scenario…
the nerves could be completely severed.
I understand.
- Paramedic Heo.
- Yes, Master Kim.
Prepare cutters, please.
Yes, Master Kim. Cutters!
Nurse Euntak.
Give Dr. Seo Woojin 50 mg of tramadol.
Prepare a tourniquet too.
Yes, Master Kim.
- Tourniquet.
- Here you go.
- Paramedic Heo!
- Yes, Master Kim.
Remove the patient underneath
as soon as the rebar is cut.
Be careful not to dislodge
the rebar in the chest as well.
If it dislodges,
it'll lead to massive bleeding
and the patient will die immediately.
Yes, Master Kim.
Nurse Euntak.
As soon as the rebar is cut,
help them transport the patient.
We'll need to operate
as soon as he arrives at the hospital,
so let Dr. Nam, Director Park, and Eunjae
know about the patient's condition.
Yes, Master Kim.
The cutters are ready.
Where should I cut the rebar?
- Please hold this up.
- Yes, Doctor.
No, please don't do this.
All right.
It's all ready.
No.
Cut it.
Cut it!
It's okay, Woojin.
It's all over!
You did well.
It's over.
You did well.
Let's move the patient!
Yes, Doctor.
Carefully.
There is an update
on the collapse
of a public building in Jeongseon.
We have just received word
that the academy teacher
and the male student who were trapped
in the basement
due to the second collapse,
as well as the two medical staff
and paramedics who went in to save them,
were all rescued.
Please allow me to repeat this.
We have just received word
that the academy teacher
and the male student who were trapped
in the basement
due to the second collapse,
as well as the two medics
and paramedics who went in to save them,
were all rescued.
Dr. Cha.
(Doldam Hospital Trauma Center)
They say Dr. Seo and Nurse Euntak
are both safe and have been rescued.
Really? They're safe?
They're safe?
They're on their way
from the site of the accident.
This is what they
call a "close call," right?
It really felt
like my life was fading away.
Same here. I was really afraid this time.
Oh, what a relief.
But…
I think Dr. Seo is a little hurt.
Hurt?
Seo Woojin is hurt? Where…
Nurse Oh! You got the call, right?
A hemoperitoneum patient with a rebar
in his chest is coming in right now.
There are suspected spleen
and liver damage,
and REBOA was used to stop the bleeding,
but a penetration wound in the chest
may cause massive bleeding.
Have you ever removed a foreign body--
Yes, I have.
Can you do another combined surgery?
Yes, I can. But I…
I heard Dr. Seo Woojin had an injury.
He hurt his hand.
What?
Master Kim is also on his way.
Master Kim said
he'll be arriving in five minutes
and he'll be operating on Dr. Seo himself.
He's asked us to prepare an OR at Doldam
and for you to join the operation.
Yes, I heard. May I go now?
Yes, go.
Don't worry too much.
I'll be back, Dr. Cha.
All right.
We have a patient!
To the hybrid OR, quickly!
Dr. Yoon, there's another patient as well.
Yes, Doctor.
Carefully.
Let's move the patient.
One, two, three! Careful!
One, two, three!
All right, carefully.
Did you take out the rebar?
It was stuck in the chest
of another patient, so I had no choice.
Doil,
there was a lot of bleeding
when we took it out.
I understand.
I'll hang up some blood first.
Bring the packed RBC!
Get a CT and X-ray and run OP labs.
Doil,
I'm just going to go change,
so set up an OR for me.
Don't worry. I'll have one prepared.
Nurse Eom, let's run the labs.
Yes, Nurse Oh.
Dr. Seo.
Take him to Bed Four.
Let's move the patient.
One, two, three!
He's a hypoglycemic patient.
He regained some consciousness
after getting glucose.
What about Nurse Euntak?
He went to the Trauma Center.
Nurse Euntak got hurt too? Where?
He's okay.
He went over there
because of another patient.
Oh, Dr. Yoon, the patient
is becoming conscious.
Sir?
Sir, are you conscious?
Mom…
We have a patient!
This way!
Take the patient to Trauma Bay!
This way, quickly!
Darn it.
Nurse Euntak!
Are you okay?
I'm okay. I'll go get ready.
It's fine.
Leave this to us.
You should get some rest.
I'm staying by the patient's side
until the surgery is over.
That patient…
is the patient Dr. Seo
protected until the very end.
Darn it.
There's massive bleeding
and a lot of fluid.
The chest area is
in better condition than expected.
It seems like the rebar
is preventing the bleeding.
Vitals are 95/40. Heart rate 130.
I'm taking the scan now.
Okay.
That's the REBOA, right?
We're going to open the stomach
and use gauze for damage control.
Then remove the rebar in the OR.
I'll go prepare.
Should we remove the REBOA?
Let's remove it after checking
the patient's condition in the ICU.
Dr. Jung, take care of
sedating the patient.
Yes, Dr. Park. C-line, please.
Yes, Doctor.
Dr. Lee Seonung, tell an anesthesiologist
to prepare Operating Room One.
If there's a lot of damage,
we'll do a lung lobectomy too.
Yes, Doctor!
Dr. Cha.
Do you mind if the punctured lung surgery
is postponed to the second half?
You would have done the same, Master Kim.
What if you had gotten hurt?
Then you could fix me up, Master Kim.
(Chief of Surgery
Master Kim)
Master Kim, are you okay?
Yes, I'm okay.
I just needed to catch my breath.
What about Seo Woojin?
Are we ready to operate?
- One moment, please.
- No, it's fine.
Just one moment.
Look at this. It says 37.8°C.
You should be careful
with a fever this high.
Don't worry about it.
It's temporary.
You know that stress
and high fever are detrimental to MS.
You even passed out due to a high fever
last year because you overdid it.
The more it happens,
the more the damage will accumulate.
Seo Woojin hurt his hand.
I know.
In this situation,
I can't worry about the damage I'll take.
I don't have the mental capacity to.
- But Master Kim--
- I must
perform this surgery, Dr. Bae.
I'm going to fix him for sure
even if it costs my own wrist.
The patient has been sedated.
There will be a lot of blood,
so prepare a lot of gauze.
Scalpel.
Mayo scissors.
I don't see any fractures
on the X-ray,
but looking at the location of the rebar,
I suspect ulnar nerve
and arterial damage.
I also suspect digital nerve
and digital arterial damage
in the back of the hand.
From my initial check,
the fourth and fifth are starting
to lose sensation.
Let's quickly open up
and connect them.
- The tourniquet pressure is at 200, right?
- Yes, Doctor.
I'm going to operate
without removing the tourniquet.
Can I start, Doil?
Yes, you may start.
Okay.
I'll remove the rebar now.
Scalpel.
Gillies forceps.
Mosquito forceps.
Senn retractor, please.
Self retractor.
More gauze.
Pack it in to stop the bleeding.
Yes, Doctor.
I think the bleeding stopped.
The vitals are no longer dropping.
Where is Dr. Cha Eunjae?
Nurse Joo,
please get Dr. Cha Eunjae!
I'm here.
I'll get ready in the OR.
Ioban, please.
We move to the OR
as soon as we're done packing the gauze.
Yes, Doctor.
Do you see it?
Vessel clamp.
Senn retractor, please.
Another clamp.
Metz.
I'll cut off the torn artery.
After we check the punctured lung,
I'll decide on the scope of the surgery
and how to remove the foreign body.
I understand, Doctor.
Scalpel.
- Suction.
- Suction.
Thankfully,
it's not completely destroyed.
Give me the 8-0 Nylon.
It must have hurt a lot.
I'm going to work on the artery now.
Suture, please.
Master Kim,
do you need to take a break?
We've already connected the nerves.
Should I call another CT surgeon?
Dr. Cha and Dr. Ung are
in a trauma operation right now.
Administrator Cha Jinman is still
at his trial.
Nurse Oh, I'll continue.
Suture, please.
At that moment,
it was like Master Kim
was superhuman.
Thankfully, the damage
in the hand isn't too bad.
It seems the heavens helped us.
Give me the 9-0 Nylon, please.
Tourniquet off.
At the end,
there was another crisis, but…
What's going on?
Blood isn't flowing
through the nerve artery.
What happened?
But the surgery was successful.
Why isn't the blood flowing?
He doesn't seem to have
a blood clot.
Forceps, please.
Okay.
What happened just now though?
Did we keep the tourniquet on
for too long?
When you get seriously injured,
sometimes part of the blood vessel
contracts and flattens.
Nurse Oh, hemovac, please.
I'm going to finish up now.
Suture, please.
Perhaps, at that moment,
Master Kim was putting
all his strength and luck
into the operation.
- Cut.
- Cut.
Okay.
At least it didn't touch the hilum.
Let's remove the foreign body now.
Dr. Lee, do you want to do it?
Careful not to move the rebar
while doing the wedge resection.
You've got this, right?
Yes, I'll give it a try.
"I will get it done."
Only then can the patient live.
Yes, Doctor.
Linear cutter, please.
Okay.
I'm sorry.
It's okay. Keep going.
Scissors, please.
Calmly.
You did well.
We'll be changing gloves.
Forceps, please.
Another one.
Mixter forceps.
Tie.
I'll save him, Seo Woojin.
I will save…
this person
no matter what.
Cut.
Please help me.
There's someone here!
A survivor!
Thank you for your hard work.
Goodbye.

Good job, Dr. Lee.
I learned a lot thanks to you.
(Dad)
Hello?
Seo Woojin got hurt?
Yes.
Where? How bad is it?
I don't know yet.
I just finished operating
on a different patient.
Where are you, Dad?
The trial just ended.
I'm on the way back now.
Was the trial that important?
What do you mean?
There was a disaster.
There was even a code orange.
As a doctor,
you should drop everything
and come back to the hospital.
The assemblywoman is determined
to denounce and attack us.
Should I sit around and let it happen?
Despite all of that,
I should have dropped everything
and gone back, like a saint?
Why on earth did you come
to the Trauma Center, Dad?
What do you want to do here?
I have to fight
everything that tries to treat us rashly.
Master Kim.
Hey, Eunjae.
The surgery went well.
We'll have to wait and see
if the nerves recover or not.
Don't worry too much about it though.
Let's wait and see, okay?
Master Kim.
Yes?
Thank you.
All right, go on in.
Okay.
You're awake.
It's Cha Eunjae.
It hurts a lot, doesn't it?
Yes, a little.
Don't cry.
The patient is alive too.
The one you protected.
You successfully removed the rebar
in the chest, right?
Of course.
Dr. Cha Eunjae.
You did a great job.
You're going to be okay too.
You know that, right?
Yes.
By the way, Seo Woojin.
I'm curious about something.
What is it?
Why did you go so far?
Excuse me.
Who are you looking for?
Well,
I'm looking for my teacher.
I heard he got surgery over here.
No visitors are allowed right now,
but I'll let you see him
from here for a bit.
You even injured your hand.
Was he worth doing that for?
Yes.
He's a teacher.
My gosh! Are you okay?
I still think about it.
What would it be like
if you or I…
Let me take a look at you.
…hadn't met Master Kim that time.
I would still be throwing up
or passing out in the OR.
I might have even given up
on being a doctor.
I feel the same way.
My life
would have come crashing down endlessly
if Master Kim
hadn't caught me that time.
Kid, you should go up now. It's your turn.
I could tell that the teacher
meant the same for that child.
I said I would go up with my teacher.
I swore at him!
Sir.
Teachers are like that.
They are people…
who can profoundly change someone's life.
What is it? Do you have something to say?
What kind of person are you, Master Kim?
What kind of nonsense is…
As you can see,
I'm just this kind of person.
A person like me.
Personally, I think
you're scary sometimes.
What?
You think I'm a scaredy-cat?
I think you're scary.
Very, super, absolutely scary!
For someone who thinks
I'm "very, super, absolutely scary,"
you sure have a lot
to say while sitting there.
Just what kind of person are you,
Master Kim?
What are you?
This reminds me of the past.
A long time ago,
someone else asked me that question.
Just like you.
And? What was your answer?
"Master Kim."
- What?
- I said I was Master Kim.
That's what I told him.
This is driving me crazy.
Hey, don't go crazy.
We don't have another resident
with your specialty here.
I told you I wanted
to be a colorectal surgeon.
Did I say anything?
That's why I'm asking you
to stop trying to change my mind.
Were you about to?
Why?
Do you want to stay here?
No way! Not at all.
I dislike you right now anyway.
Maybe we can talk about it some more
if you pass the board.
I told you no!
I really don't like this hospital.
I hate it!
I never have time
to go home or play games.
Instead, there are people.
I'm not the type
to get along with people anyway.
I'm an ISFP. My disposition is--
What are you even saying?
It means that I don't get along
with strange people in a strange hospital.
Then why did you almost change your mind?
Is it because
you like me?
Please stop doing that.
I'm allergic to words like that.
Look at these goosebumps.
I've noticed young people these days
aren't good at expressing their emotions.
If you like something or someone,
just say so!
It's not that big of a deal.
No! It's not like that at all!
Come here!
Come here.
This guy…
Master Kim!
Yes?
Assemblywoman Ko has just arrived
at the Trauma Center.
She came to our hospital?
She said she wanted to be brought
to the main regional hospital.
What should we do?
She filed a lawsuit against us,
so it's an awkward situation.
How hurt is she?
You already heard
from our secretaries, right?
First, please have
a room prepared for Ms. Ko.
And please run blood tests
and a CT as soon as possible.
You got a yellow tag.
Please take her to the Doldam ER.
Wait a minute.
Don't you understand what's going on here?
Right. We're in Code Orange right now.
According to
the degree of emergency,
all non-emergency
and emergency patients go to the ER
while critical patients
are treated here at the Trauma Center.
Look here, Nurse Oh!
Do you know how long it took Ms. Ko
to be rescued from the collapsed building?
You don't know
where or how hurt she may be--
Even if you don't have severe trauma,
you can get a CT at the ER.
Are you refusing treatment right now,
because I filed
a lawsuit against the hospital?
Are you allowed to do this?
As the main regional hospital?
The Doldam ER is
the main regional hospital,
not the Trauma Center.
All of the patients here
are being classified and treated
by the same standards, Ms. Ko.
- Chief Advisor Lee.
- Yes?
Let's go to another hospital.
Yes, Ms. Ko.
Hold on.
Ms. Ko.
May I take a look?
I said let's go to another hospital.
I'll take a look first.
Get your hands off me.
I don't want to be treated by you!
Excuse me.
What are you waiting for?
Let's go!
Yes, Ms. Ko.
Ms. Ko?
There's a symptom you didn't tell
the paramedics about, right?
You have to tell every symptom.
That way you can get proper treatment.
Do you feel
a little numb below your ankles?
What about your toes?
Is it hard to move your toes?
Nurse Oh.
I suspect compartment syndrome.
Page OS.
Transfer this patient
to the Observation Area.
Nurse Oh, a pillow!
Be prepared to face the consequences
if anything happens to Ms. Ko.
Darn it.
What happened?
It's compartment syndrome.
We've lost a lot of time,
so we need to operate immediately.
Forget it.
I will not receive
surgery in this hospital.
What?
Ms. Ko, this is considered
an emergency orthopedic situation.
If you don't open the muscle
with a fasciotomy immediately,
you'll get necrosis in your tissue.
You don't have time to move
to another hospital and get tested again.
I don't understand
this situation right now.
You said it wasn't an emergency earlier,
but now you're saying I'll get necrosis
if I don't get surgery?
I thought it was just a fracture.
I'm sorry.
Don't apologize.
I don't want your apology.
It won't touch my heart or anything.
Do you think we're doing
this to please a customer?
A doctor is trying to treat a patient.
You're in critical condition, Ms. Ko.
Why now?
You left my son alone to die,
so why are you trying
to be so considerate now?
Is it because of your hospital budget?
Or are you hoping
I'll dismiss the lawsuit?
- No--
- No, that's not it at all.
We're doing this
because your condition is very bad,
and you need surgery, Ms. Ko.
Then you should have
taken care of my son like that!
Assemblywoman Ko.
I also have a child.
She's a daughter
whom I love so very much.
I've spent the past seven years
living away from her.
While I am not the best dad,
there is one thing I did
that can make my daughter proud.
I did my best
for the patients who come here.
I worked very hard
to become a doctor
and not some quack doctor.
That's the one thing I'm proud of.
You don't have to…
dismiss the lawsuit.
You should still get the surgery.
It'll be really bad
if you don't.
When we deal with patients,
we may not always meet expectations,
but we have always done our best.
So what will you do?
Your leg must be
in a lot of pain right now.
Are you sure you want
to go to another hospital?
I'll tell Dr. Nam to open an OR.
Don't forget the signs.
Okay.
I'll do it.
(To observation area)
(To Doldam Hospital)
(Doldam Hospital)
What is all this?
This is
the only thing I've ever known
how to do in my life.
Making delicious food for people.
It's unfortunate that you hurt your hand
since you're a doctor.
It hurts a lot, doesn't it?
It's okay.
Stay strong.
I already feel sorry for telling someone
who already works hard every day
to stay strong.
But you should still stay strong.
Only then can you keep living,
right?
Right.
If you want to stay strong,
you have to eat well.
People need to eat more than anything.
Come on. Take a bite.
I just made it and brought it here.
Come on.
Dr. Areum?
Did you just finish?
Yes.
I was watching the patient
since he was in bad condition,
so I just finished.
Were you waiting for me until now?
Were you hurt?
Well…
just a little.
I'm glad.
But how could you
not even leave a text message?
Well,
I thought you would have heard
from the hospital staff that I was safe.
I guess I only meant that much to you.
To you, I'm just
a part of the hospital staff.
Right, Nurse Euntak?
What do you mean?
At least I understand now.
"Why hasn't he texted or called me yet?"
"Is he having that hard of a time
to not let me know he's safe?"
"Is he hurt? Is he busy?"
It was just me doing it again, right?
Just me again.
What's wrong, Dr. Areum?
You're like a different person--
I'm being very serious when I ask this.
What percentage of your mind do I make up?
- Dr. Areum.
- Why am I the only one missing you,
worrying about you, and waiting for you?
Why am I the only one ever upset?
Is it because I like you
more than you like me?
If I like you less,
will you treat me better?
I'm sorry.
I didn't realize you were this mad.
Why?
Did you think I didn't know how to get mad
and only knew how to laugh?
I know how to get mad and be furious.
I know how to explode with anger.
I was completely out of my wits
since Dr. Woojin got hurt.
I was worried about Master Kim too.
There was the operation
for the injured teacher too, so--
See?
I wasn't on your mind at all.
That's not it.
Enough.
I won't be easily consoled this time.
I'm going to be mad for the time being.
Just keep that in mind.
Oh, you haven't gone home yet, Dr. Areum?
Nurse Eom.
Do you happen to have
some of that candy?
What's wrong?
I thought you stopped eating them.
Are you stressed or something?
I need the candy to get by today.
Please give me one.
But…
if Nurse Euntak finds out,
I'll get in trouble.
What happened?
You can tell me.
I'm going to be nonchalant from now on.
A relationship
isn't something that happens
when only one person likes the other.
From now on, I'm going
to distance myself from Nurse Euntak.
I can't let things go on like this.
Thank you for the candy, Nurse Eom.
Excuse me.
I'll be going home now.
Okay, see you tomorrow.
Do you think they had a fight?
Isn't it obvious?
I've never seen Dr. Areum this mad before.
Nurse Joo, it's me.
I think Dr. Areum and Nurse Euntak
just got into a fight.
Master Kim.
Hey.
We've made it this far
before we knew it, haven't we?
Right.
It's something
I never dreamed of happening
even when I first came down here.
I felt the same way.
Still, you were the one
who brought it all together.
I didn't bring anything together.
I just go around
talking nonsense and stirring up trouble.
It's all thanks to you guys
that we were able to get this far.
You know,
not everyone in this world
will understand our true intentions.
They're not that interested in us.
So…
there's no need to explain
how hard we lived
or how hard we tried.
We'll just
do what we've always done
and live how we've always lived.
We'll silently move forward
no matter what anyone says.
Just because we live silently
doesn't mean we disappear.
Dr. Jung.
What matters the most
never disappears.
You know that, right?
Yes, Master Kim.
My gosh. It's still chilly at night.
- You should go in.
- Right.
Okay.
Oh, right.
Ask Byeol how she's doing for me.
I will.
All right.
Byeol, it's me.
Didn't you go to bed yet?
I called because I missed you.
What did you do today?
Really? You scored a 100?
You operated
on Assemblywoman Ko Kyungsook?
I was just operating
on a patient with compartment syndrome.
So you didn't have an ulterior motive?
Does a doctor need
an ulterior motive for a patient?
That's how you took this hospital
from Chairman Shin Myungho.
What did you say?
You should
just tell me everything now.
Tell you what?
Your arm.
Did you really think I wouldn't notice?
How far has it progressed?
How much longer
will you be able to operate?
I need to know your plan
so I can keep up.
Don't worry about what I'm doing.
Worry about yourself.
As a doctor, father, and teacher,
you were totally disqualified today,
you bastard.
You should be
more respectful toward me, Yongju.
Without me,
you have no other alternative, right?
"What gets us into trouble
is not what we don't know.
It's when we boast about something
we think we know that does."
This is something Mark Twain said.
Looking at you now
made me think of that saying.
What is that supposed to mean?
It means…
that you were actually Plan B, Jinman.

There's a possibility
that his hand won't recover

without permission.
(Woo Sangmin)
Maybe it has something to do
with the incident from three years ago?
I love my dad.
And I respect him
more than anyone else in the world.
- At this point, that offer…
- Will you take it?
How much of this did you plot out?
Just what are you planning
right now?

There seem to be
fragments of sand still in the wound.
Let's clean up the wound first.
It hurts.
Does it hurt anywhere else?
Were you hit in the head or chest
for example?
No.
Would you stop crying?
You're driving me crazy.
What if they're all dead?
Bumjae and our teacher are still
under there.
Gosh, this is so annoying.
Painful, hard times began…
for both the people
who couldn't make it out,
and the people who made it out.
Nurse, could you finish this up for me?
Nurse Eom.
Do you think the students reached
their guardians?
Nurse Eom.
Dr. Areum.
What do we do?
Why? What is it now?
Along with the first two victims
of the initial collapse,
two paramedics
and two members of the medical team
are now buried under the rubble.
It is not yet known
whether they are alive or not.
As it is difficult to maneuver
heavy equipment in old concrete
that may collapse at the slightest touch,
search and rescue has been slowing down.

Why aren't you answering?

What do you mean it collapsed again?
Then what about Seo Woojin
and Park Euntak?
They say they're still in there,
Master Kim.
Right-angle clamps, please.
- Master Kim!
- What's the current situation?
Did you speak to anyone at the site?
I can't get a hold of Chief Jang.
I think he's too busy handling
the situation with Disaster Headquarters.
I talked to Dr. Jang just now,
but he just keeps crying.
Dr. Yoon Areum.
It can't be.
The news is wrong about…
Nurse Euntak and Dr. Woojin.
Right?
Master Kim.
Return to your station.
There's no need to be uneasy.
Go back to your station, Dr. Yoon.
Master Kim.
Nothing is official yet,
so don't assume anything.
Don't jump to conclusions
and discourage yourself.
Not until…
I go check it out myself.
Until then,
go back to your stations
and do your jobs, got it?
- All right, cut.
- Cut.
I've taken care of the spleen,
so we'll temporarily close the stomach.
Are you able to take care
of the hemothorax alone, Dr. Cha?
Yes, of course.
All right, I will be leaving now.
Thank you for your work.
Scalpel, please.
Hemovac, please.
Nurse Oh.
- What did you say?
- Hemovac, please.
Yes, Doctor.
I'm sorry.
Something seemed to be going on outside.

- All right, cut.
- Cut.

(Bu Yongju)
Pick up the phone, you bastard.

The person you are calling--
The complaining party
should put up
with the shortage of medical staff
due to useless lawsuits like this.
Master Kim.
Don't say a single word!
I won't listen to you.
You may throw stones
at my decision right now,
but I'll just take them.
I have to go.
My car is waiting outside.
I'm still the Director.
I'll take care of the hospital,
so go, Master Kim.
Go…
and bring the two doctors back.

Can you hear me, Dr. Seo?
Are you conscious?
Don't move.
Nurse Euntak.
What's wrong with my hand?
Don't move. Don't even flinch.
Wait one moment.
Why are you guys here?
Is there another patient to operate on?
Well…
Try not to freak out.
There was another accident
at the collapse site.
And Dr. Seo Woojin and Nurse Euntak…
…were inside the building.
(Nurse Park Euntak)
The person you are calling is
unavailable--
Excuse me.
Yes, what kind of patient…
I stopped by because I was worried.
Are you okay, Dr. Yoon?
Nurse Oh.
I'm sorry.
I know I shouldn't do this in the ER.
No, it's okay.
Doctors are humans too.
They're allowed to cry as well.
It's okay.
It's going to be okay.
It collapsed and the kids--
Excuse me.
I'm sorry. Excuse me.
Let me through, please.
- Master Kim?
- Yes, it's me, Master Kim.
Hey, Mr. Jang!
Master Kim.
What is going on?
I'm really sorry.
I couldn't stop
the two of them from going in.
This is all my fault.
Chief Park.
Master Kim.
How is the rescue going?
We've been trying to get in contact
with them since the accident,
but we got no response yet.
So we don't know
whether they're alive or not?
It may take some time
before we can determine that.
Due to the risk of further collapse,
the outer and right walls
are under inspection.
I'm planning to make an entry route
as soon as it's secured.
For now, you should
go back to the hospital and wait.

Who is this?
Is this Nurse Euntak?
Yes, Master Kim. It's Euntak.
Are the other people with you?
How are the other people?
What about Seo Woojin?
What about the rescuers?
Everyone is alive.
- They're alive!
- Yes!
Thank goodness.
But…
there are three injured.
Tell me the situation.
There's a REBOA patient
and an unconscious male student.
His level of consciousness
doesn't look good.
Vitals are 100/70. Heart rate 110.
The male student has been losing
consciousness
right after the second collapse.
Any signs of trauma?
There are no signs or symptoms of trauma.
The torso is fine too.
Oh.
There are signs
of acanthosis nigricans in the neck area.
Check the blood sugar level first.
Also, didn't you say
that three people were hurt?
Who's the last person?
It's Dr. Seo Woojin.
Rebar
in the fallen structure pierced
the back of Dr. Seo's left hand and wrist
while he was trying
to protect the REBOA patient.
Is he conscious?
Dr. Seo is conscious,
but the REBOA patient
is still unconscious.
Put Seo Woojin on the phone.
Can you respond, Seo Woojin?
Yes, Master Kim.
How is the pain?
I think the nerves were struck.
It hurts a lot.
And the person below you?
He's not conscious yet,
but it looks like the rebar
that pierced my wrist
has pierced the patient's chest.
Stay where you are for now.
One wrong move and you might
damage your nerves even more.
Stay as still as you can.
Don't try to do anything.
Wait until I get down there.
No, Master Kim!
What if things become worse
while you're down there?
Chief Park.
- How fast can you open up a path?
- Master Kim!
I understand how you feel,
but it's dangerous for you to go yourself.
I can't allow it.
Weren't you listening?
A rebar that pierced a doctor's wrist
is stuck in a person's chest.
One wrong move
and a surgeon might lose his hand
and a patient might lose his life.
To save them both,
I have no choice but to go down myself
to take care of them.
Still, you can't go down yourself,
Master Kim.
Is the reason why I can't
be more serious than saving their lives?
All right.
Give me an answer.
Are you going to save them or not?

Hello, sir.
- He's here.
- Hello.
- Hello, sir.
- Where's Assemblywoman Ko Kyungsook?
She's still in the collapsed building.
Have you heard from her?
We haven't heard from her
since it collapsed again not too long ago.
What is the rescue team doing?
That's what I have been asking.
It's this way, sir.
- Please make way.
- Out of the way.
(Police line - Under investigation)
He's the commanding officer.
Hello, sir.
Is Assemblywoman Ko still in there?
Yes, we're still searching right now.
We're currently trying to rescue
the male student, the academy teacher,
and the medical staff
after they were confirmed to be alive.
Don't you know your work priorities?
You should have rescued
Assemblywoman Ko as soon as possible.
What do you people think you're doing?
There are young students
and a teacher
who tried to save the students down there.
The medical staff that ran in
to save them are also down there.
Where is the priority there?
Hey, Chief!
Are you lecturing me?
There are reporters nearby.
They'll hear you
if you speak too loud.
Thank you for your hard work.
Well, report the situation.
Wait, sir.
Sir!
Thank you for your hard work.
Keep up the good work.
(Rescue and control team

- Please help me with this.
- Okay.

Master Kim.
Did you check the blood sugar level?
It was at 60 earlier,
but I'll check again.

Is that you, Nurse Euntak?
There, there.
All right.
How are your injuries?
I'm fine, but Dr. Woojin is really hurt.
Where is he?
Woojin.
Master Kim.
Yes.
This patient…
It's been an hour since the REBOA.
It was a partial REBOA,
but we can't delay any longer.
As of now, there's only one option.
We have to pull
the rebar out of your wrist.
What if something happens
to Dr. Seo's nerves?
Please take it out.
Dr. Seo.
He could die
if we delay any longer.
Then all of this…
would become meaningless.
Please take it out, Master Kim.
Darn it.
Are you okay?
Hey, Jang Donghwa.
Why did you come down here?
To see if I could help…
Hey.
If you're going to stand there
with that look, go back up.
I don't want to.
Go back up!
No, I will not go back up.
You little--
This student's blood sugar
level is too low, Master Kim!
He's in hypoglycemic shock.
Jang Donghwa,
hurry up and grab an IV with 50 DW.
You can do that, right?
- Yes, Master Kim.
- Hurry up and go!
Master Kim.
Woojin.
It will be unbearably painful.
I understand.
When this rebar is cut,
the vibration can cause more damage
to the already damaged nerves.
Yes.
In the worst-case scenario…
the nerves could be completely severed.
I understand.
- Paramedic Heo.
- Yes, Master Kim.
Prepare cutters, please.
Yes, Master Kim. Cutters!
Nurse Euntak.
Give Dr. Seo Woojin 50 mg of tramadol.
Prepare a tourniquet too.
Yes, Master Kim.
- Tourniquet.
- Here you go.
- Paramedic Heo!
- Yes, Master Kim.
Remove the patient underneath
as soon as the rebar is cut.
Be careful not to dislodge
the rebar in the chest as well.
If it dislodges,
it'll lead to massive bleeding
and the patient will die immediately.
Yes, Master Kim.
Nurse Euntak.
As soon as the rebar is cut,
help them transport the patient.
We'll need to operate
as soon as he arrives at the hospital,
so let Dr. Nam, Director Park, and Eunjae
know about the patient's condition.
Yes, Master Kim.
The cutters are ready.
Where should I cut the rebar?
- Please hold this up.
- Yes, Doctor.
No, please don't do this.
All right.
It's all ready.
No.
Cut it.
Cut it!
It's okay, Woojin.
It's all over!
You did well.
It's over.
You did well.
Let's move the patient!
Yes, Doctor.
Carefully.
There is an update
on the collapse
of a public building in Jeongseon.
We have just received word
that the academy teacher
and the male student who were trapped
in the basement
due to the second collapse,
as well as the two medical staff
and paramedics who went in to save them,
were all rescued.
Please allow me to repeat this.
We have just received word
that the academy teacher
and the male student who were trapped
in the basement
due to the second collapse,
as well as the two medics
and paramedics who went in to save them,
were all rescued.
Dr. Cha.
(Doldam Hospital Trauma Center)
They say Dr. Seo and Nurse Euntak
are both safe and have been rescued.
Really? They're safe?
They're safe?
They're on their way
from the site of the accident.
This is what they
call a "close call," right?
It really felt
like my life was fading away.
Same here. I was really afraid this time.
Oh, what a relief.
But…
I think Dr. Seo is a little hurt.
Hurt?
Seo Woojin is hurt? Where…
Nurse Oh! You got the call, right?
A hemoperitoneum patient with a rebar
in his chest is coming in right now.
There are suspected spleen
and liver damage,
and REBOA was used to stop the bleeding,
but a penetration wound in the chest
may cause massive bleeding.
Have you ever removed a foreign body--
Yes, I have.
Can you do another combined surgery?
Yes, I can. But I…
I heard Dr. Seo Woojin had an injury.
He hurt his hand.
What?
Master Kim is also on his way.
Master Kim said
he'll be arriving in five minutes
and he'll be operating on Dr. Seo himself.
He's asked us to prepare an OR at Doldam
and for you to join the operation.
Yes, I heard. May I go now?
Yes, go.
Don't worry too much.
I'll be back, Dr. Cha.
All right.
We have a patient!
To the hybrid OR, quickly!
Dr. Yoon, there's another patient as well.
Yes, Doctor.
Carefully.
Let's move the patient.
One, two, three! Careful!
One, two, three!
All right, carefully.
Did you take out the rebar?
It was stuck in the chest
of another patient, so I had no choice.
Doil,
there was a lot of bleeding
when we took it out.
I understand.
I'll hang up some blood first.
Bring the packed RBC!
Get a CT and X-ray and run OP labs.
Doil,
I'm just going to go change,
so set up an OR for me.
Don't worry. I'll have one prepared.
Nurse Eom, let's run the labs.
Yes, Nurse Oh.
Dr. Seo.
Take him to Bed Four.
Let's move the patient.
One, two, three!
He's a hypoglycemic patient.
He regained some consciousness
after getting glucose.
What about Nurse Euntak?
He went to the Trauma Center.
Nurse Euntak got hurt too? Where?
He's okay.
He went over there
because of another patient.
Oh, Dr. Yoon, the patient
is becoming conscious.
Sir?
Sir, are you conscious?
Mom…
We have a patient!
This way!
Take the patient to Trauma Bay!
This way, quickly!
Darn it.
Nurse Euntak!
Are you okay?
I'm okay. I'll go get ready.
It's fine.
Leave this to us.
You should get some rest.
I'm staying by the patient's side
until the surgery is over.
That patient…
is the patient Dr. Seo
protected until the very end.
Darn it.
There's massive bleeding
and a lot of fluid.
The chest area is
in better condition than expected.
It seems like the rebar
is preventing the bleeding.
Vitals are 95/40. Heart rate 130.
I'm taking the scan now.
Okay.
That's the REBOA, right?
We're going to open the stomach
and use gauze for damage control.
Then remove the rebar in the OR.
I'll go prepare.
Should we remove the REBOA?
Let's remove it after checking
the patient's condition in the ICU.
Dr. Jung, take care of
sedating the patient.
Yes, Dr. Park. C-line, please.
Yes, Doctor.
Dr. Lee Seonung, tell an anesthesiologist
to prepare Operating Room One.
If there's a lot of damage,
we'll do a lung lobectomy too.
Yes, Doctor!
Dr. Cha.
Do you mind if the punctured lung surgery
is postponed to the second half?
You would have done the same, Master Kim.
What if you had gotten hurt?
Then you could fix me up, Master Kim.
(Chief of Surgery
Master Kim)
Master Kim, are you okay?
Yes, I'm okay.
I just needed to catch my breath.
What about Seo Woojin?
Are we ready to operate?
- One moment, please.
- No, it's fine.
Just one moment.
Look at this. It says 37.8°C.
You should be careful
with a fever this high.
Don't worry about it.
It's temporary.
You know that stress
and high fever are detrimental to MS.
You even passed out due to a high fever
last year because you overdid it.
The more it happens,
the more the damage will accumulate.
Seo Woojin hurt his hand.
I know.
In this situation,
I can't worry about the damage I'll take.
I don't have the mental capacity to.
- But Master Kim--
- I must
perform this surgery, Dr. Bae.
I'm going to fix him for sure
even if it costs my own wrist.
The patient has been sedated.
There will be a lot of blood,
so prepare a lot of gauze.
Scalpel.
Mayo scissors.
I don't see any fractures
on the X-ray,
but looking at the location of the rebar,
I suspect ulnar nerve
and arterial damage.
I also suspect digital nerve
and digital arterial damage
in the back of the hand.
From my initial check,
the fourth and fifth are starting
to lose sensation.
Let's quickly open up
and connect them.
- The tourniquet pressure is at 200, right?
- Yes, Doctor.
I'm going to operate
without removing the tourniquet.
Can I start, Doil?
Yes, you may start.
Okay.
I'll remove the rebar now.
Scalpel.
Gillies forceps.
Mosquito forceps.
Senn retractor, please.
Self retractor.
More gauze.
Pack it in to stop the bleeding.
Yes, Doctor.
I think the bleeding stopped.
The vitals are no longer dropping.
Where is Dr. Cha Eunjae?
Nurse Joo,
please get Dr. Cha Eunjae!
I'm here.
I'll get ready in the OR.
Ioban, please.
We move to the OR
as soon as we're done packing the gauze.
Yes, Doctor.
Do you see it?
Vessel clamp.
Senn retractor, please.
Another clamp.
Metz.
I'll cut off the torn artery.
After we check the punctured lung,
I'll decide on the scope of the surgery
and how to remove the foreign body.
I understand, Doctor.
Scalpel.
- Suction.
- Suction.
Thankfully,
it's not completely destroyed.
Give me the 8-0 Nylon.
It must have hurt a lot.
I'm going to work on the artery now.
Suture, please.
Master Kim,
do you need to take a break?
We've already connected the nerves.
Should I call another CT surgeon?
Dr. Cha and Dr. Ung are
in a trauma operation right now.
Administrator Cha Jinman is still
at his trial.
Nurse Oh, I'll continue.
Suture, please.
At that moment,
it was like Master Kim
was superhuman.
Thankfully, the damage
in the hand isn't too bad.
It seems the heavens helped us.
Give me the 9-0 Nylon, please.
Tourniquet off.
At the end,
there was another crisis, but…
What's going on?
Blood isn't flowing
through the nerve artery.
What happened?
But the surgery was successful.
Why isn't the blood flowing?
He doesn't seem to have
a blood clot.
Forceps, please.
Okay.
What happened just now though?
Did we keep the tourniquet on
for too long?
When you get seriously injured,
sometimes part of the blood vessel
contracts and flattens.
Nurse Oh, hemovac, please.
I'm going to finish up now.
Suture, please.
Perhaps, at that moment,
Master Kim was putting
all his strength and luck
into the operation.
- Cut.
- Cut.
Okay.
At least it didn't touch the hilum.
Let's remove the foreign body now.
Dr. Lee, do you want to do it?
Careful not to move the rebar
while doing the wedge resection.
You've got this, right?
Yes, I'll give it a try.
"I will get it done."
Only then can the patient live.
Yes, Doctor.
Linear cutter, please.
Okay.
I'm sorry.
It's okay. Keep going.
Scissors, please.
Calmly.
You did well.
We'll be changing gloves.
Forceps, please.
Another one.
Mixter forceps.
Tie.
I'll save him, Seo Woojin.
I will save…
this person
no matter what.
Cut.
Please help me.
There's someone here!
A survivor!
Thank you for your hard work.
Goodbye.

Good job, Dr. Lee.
I learned a lot thanks to you.
(Dad)
Hello?
Seo Woojin got hurt?
Yes.
Where? How bad is it?
I don't know yet.
I just finished operating
on a different patient.
Where are you, Dad?
The trial just ended.
I'm on the way back now.
Was the trial that important?
What do you mean?
There was a disaster.
There was even a code orange.
As a doctor,
you should drop everything
and come back to the hospital.
The assemblywoman is determined
to denounce and attack us.
Should I sit around and let it happen?
Despite all of that,
I should have dropped everything
and gone back, like a saint?
Why on earth did you come
to the Trauma Center, Dad?
What do you want to do here?
I have to fight
everything that tries to treat us rashly.
Master Kim.
Hey, Eunjae.
The surgery went well.
We'll have to wait and see
if the nerves recover or not.
Don't worry too much about it though.
Let's wait and see, okay?
Master Kim.
Yes?
Thank you.
All right, go on in.
Okay.
You're awake.
It's Cha Eunjae.
It hurts a lot, doesn't it?
Yes, a little.
Don't cry.
The patient is alive too.
The one you protected.
You successfully removed the rebar
in the chest, right?
Of course.
Dr. Cha Eunjae.
You did a great job.
You're going to be okay too.
You know that, right?
Yes.
By the way, Seo Woojin.
I'm curious about something.
What is it?
Why did you go so far?
Excuse me.
Who are you looking for?
Well,
I'm looking for my teacher.
I heard he got surgery over here.
No visitors are allowed right now,
but I'll let you see him
from here for a bit.
You even injured your hand.
Was he worth doing that for?
Yes.
He's a teacher.
My gosh! Are you okay?
I still think about it.
What would it be like
if you or I…
Let me take a look at you.
…hadn't met Master Kim that time.
I would still be throwing up
or passing out in the OR.
I might have even given up
on being a doctor.
I feel the same way.
My life
would have come crashing down endlessly
if Master Kim
hadn't caught me that time.
Kid, you should go up now. It's your turn.
I could tell that the teacher
meant the same for that child.
I said I would go up with my teacher.
I swore at him!
Sir.
Teachers are like that.
They are people…
who can profoundly change someone's life.
What is it? Do you have something to say?
What kind of person are you, Master Kim?
What kind of nonsense is…
As you can see,
I'm just this kind of person.
A person like me.
Personally, I think
you're scary sometimes.
What?
You think I'm a scaredy-cat?
I think you're scary.
Very, super, absolutely scary!
For someone who thinks
I'm "very, super, absolutely scary,"
you sure have a lot
to say while sitting there.
Just what kind of person are you,
Master Kim?
What are you?
This reminds me of the past.
A long time ago,
someone else asked me that question.
Just like you.
And? What was your answer?
"Master Kim."
- What?
- I said I was Master Kim.
That's what I told him.
This is driving me crazy.
Hey, don't go crazy.
We don't have another resident
with your specialty here.
I told you I wanted
to be a colorectal surgeon.
Did I say anything?
That's why I'm asking you
to stop trying to change my mind.
Were you about to?
Why?
Do you want to stay here?
No way! Not at all.
I dislike you right now anyway.
Maybe we can talk about it some more
if you pass the board.
I told you no!
I really don't like this hospital.
I hate it!
I never have time
to go home or play games.
Instead, there are people.
I'm not the type
to get along with people anyway.
I'm an ISFP. My disposition is--
What are you even saying?
It means that I don't get along
with strange people in a strange hospital.
Then why did you almost change your mind?
Is it because
you like me?
Please stop doing that.
I'm allergic to words like that.
Look at these goosebumps.
I've noticed young people these days
aren't good at expressing their emotions.
If you like something or someone,
just say so!
It's not that big of a deal.
No! It's not like that at all!
Come here!
Come here.
This guy…
Master Kim!
Yes?
Assemblywoman Ko has just arrived
at the Trauma Center.
She came to our hospital?
She said she wanted to be brought
to the main regional hospital.
What should we do?
She filed a lawsuit against us,
so it's an awkward situation.
How hurt is she?
You already heard
from our secretaries, right?
First, please have
a room prepared for Ms. Ko.
And please run blood tests
and a CT as soon as possible.
You got a yellow tag.
Please take her to the Doldam ER.
Wait a minute.
Don't you understand what's going on here?
Right. We're in Code Orange right now.
According to
the degree of emergency,
all non-emergency
and emergency patients go to the ER
while critical patients
are treated here at the Trauma Center.
Look here, Nurse Oh!
Do you know how long it took Ms. Ko
to be rescued from the collapsed building?
You don't know
where or how hurt she may be--
Even if you don't have severe trauma,
you can get a CT at the ER.
Are you refusing treatment right now,
because I filed
a lawsuit against the hospital?
Are you allowed to do this?
As the main regional hospital?
The Doldam ER is
the main regional hospital,
not the Trauma Center.
All of the patients here
are being classified and treated
by the same standards, Ms. Ko.
- Chief Advisor Lee.
- Yes?
Let's go to another hospital.
Yes, Ms. Ko.
Hold on.
Ms. Ko.
May I take a look?
I said let's go to another hospital.
I'll take a look first.
Get your hands off me.
I don't want to be treated by you!
Excuse me.
What are you waiting for?
Let's go!
Yes, Ms. Ko.
Ms. Ko?
There's a symptom you didn't tell
the paramedics about, right?
You have to tell every symptom.
That way you can get proper treatment.
Do you feel
a little numb below your ankles?
What about your toes?
Is it hard to move your toes?
Nurse Oh.
I suspect compartment syndrome.
Page OS.
Transfer this patient
to the Observation Area.
Nurse Oh, a pillow!
Be prepared to face the consequences
if anything happens to Ms. Ko.
Darn it.
What happened?
It's compartment syndrome.
We've lost a lot of time,
so we need to operate immediately.
Forget it.
I will not receive
surgery in this hospital.
What?
Ms. Ko, this is considered
an emergency orthopedic situation.
If you don't open the muscle
with a fasciotomy immediately,
you'll get necrosis in your tissue.
You don't have time to move
to another hospital and get tested again.
I don't understand
this situation right now.
You said it wasn't an emergency earlier,
but now you're saying I'll get necrosis
if I don't get surgery?
I thought it was just a fracture.
I'm sorry.
Don't apologize.
I don't want your apology.
It won't touch my heart or anything.
Do you think we're doing
this to please a customer?
A doctor is trying to treat a patient.
You're in critical condition, Ms. Ko.
Why now?
You left my son alone to die,
so why are you trying
to be so considerate now?
Is it because of your hospital budget?
Or are you hoping
I'll dismiss the lawsuit?
- No--
- No, that's not it at all.
We're doing this
because your condition is very bad,
and you need surgery, Ms. Ko.
Then you should have
taken care of my son like that!
Assemblywoman Ko.
I also have a child.
She's a daughter
whom I love so very much.
I've spent the past seven years
living away from her.
While I am not the best dad,
there is one thing I did
that can make my daughter proud.
I did my best
for the patients who come here.
I worked very hard
to become a doctor
and not some quack doctor.
That's the one thing I'm proud of.
You don't have to…
dismiss the lawsuit.
You should still get the surgery.
It'll be really bad
if you don't.
When we deal with patients,
we may not always meet expectations,
but we have always done our best.
So what will you do?
Your leg must be
in a lot of pain right now.
Are you sure you want
to go to another hospital?
I'll tell Dr. Nam to open an OR.
Don't forget the signs.
Okay.
I'll do it.
(To observation area)
(To Doldam Hospital)
(Doldam Hospital)
What is all this?
This is
the only thing I've ever known
how to do in my life.
Making delicious food for people.
It's unfortunate that you hurt your hand
since you're a doctor.
It hurts a lot, doesn't it?
It's okay.
Stay strong.
I already feel sorry for telling someone
who already works hard every day
to stay strong.
But you should still stay strong.
Only then can you keep living,
right?
Right.
If you want to stay strong,
you have to eat well.
People need to eat more than anything.
Come on. Take a bite.
I just made it and brought it here.
Come on.
Dr. Areum?
Did you just finish?
Yes.
I was watching the patient
since he was in bad condition,
so I just finished.
Were you waiting for me until now?
Were you hurt?
Well…
just a little.
I'm glad.
But how could you
not even leave a text message?
Well,
I thought you would have heard
from the hospital staff that I was safe.
I guess I only meant that much to you.
To you, I'm just
a part of the hospital staff.
Right, Nurse Euntak?
What do you mean?
At least I understand now.
"Why hasn't he texted or called me yet?"
"Is he having that hard of a time
to not let me know he's safe?"
"Is he hurt? Is he busy?"
It was just me doing it again, right?
Just me again.
What's wrong, Dr. Areum?
You're like a different person--
I'm being very serious when I ask this.
What percentage of your mind do I make up?
- Dr. Areum.
- Why am I the only one missing you,
worrying about you, and waiting for you?
Why am I the only one ever upset?
Is it because I like you
more than you like me?
If I like you less,
will you treat me better?
I'm sorry.
I didn't realize you were this mad.
Why?
Did you think I didn't know how to get mad
and only knew how to laugh?
I know how to get mad and be furious.
I know how to explode with anger.
I was completely out of my wits
since Dr. Woojin got hurt.
I was worried about Master Kim too.
There was the operation
for the injured teacher too, so--
See?
I wasn't on your mind at all.
That's not it.
Enough.
I won't be easily consoled this time.
I'm going to be mad for the time being.
Just keep that in mind.
Oh, you haven't gone home yet, Dr. Areum?
Nurse Eom.
Do you happen to have
some of that candy?
What's wrong?
I thought you stopped eating them.
Are you stressed or something?
I need the candy to get by today.
Please give me one.
But…
if Nurse Euntak finds out,
I'll get in trouble.
What happened?
You can tell me.
I'm going to be nonchalant from now on.
A relationship
isn't something that happens
when only one person likes the other.
From now on, I'm going
to distance myself from Nurse Euntak.
I can't let things go on like this.
Thank you for the candy, Nurse Eom.
Excuse me.
I'll be going home now.
Okay, see you tomorrow.
Do you think they had a fight?
Isn't it obvious?
I've never seen Dr. Areum this mad before.
Nurse Joo, it's me.
I think Dr. Areum and Nurse Euntak
just got into a fight.
Master Kim.
Hey.
We've made it this far
before we knew it, haven't we?
Right.
It's something
I never dreamed of happening
even when I first came down here.
I felt the same way.
Still, you were the one
who brought it all together.
I didn't bring anything together.
I just go around
talking nonsense and stirring up trouble.
It's all thanks to you guys
that we were able to get this far.
You know,
not everyone in this world
will understand our true intentions.
They're not that interested in us.
So…
there's no need to explain
how hard we lived
or how hard we tried.
We'll just
do what we've always done
and live how we've always lived.
We'll silently move forward
no matter what anyone says.
Just because we live silently
doesn't mean we disappear.
Dr. Jung.
What matters the most
never disappears.
You know that, right?
Yes, Master Kim.
My gosh. It's still chilly at night.
- You should go in.
- Right.
Okay.
Oh, right.
Ask Byeol how she's doing for me.
I will.
All right.
Byeol, it's me.
Didn't you go to bed yet?
I called because I missed you.
What did you do today?
Really? You scored a 100?
You operated
on Assemblywoman Ko Kyungsook?
I was just operating
on a patient with compartment syndrome.
So you didn't have an ulterior motive?
Does a doctor need
an ulterior motive for a patient?
That's how you took this hospital
from Chairman Shin Myungho.
What did you say?
You should
just tell me everything now.
Tell you what?
Your arm.
Did you really think I wouldn't notice?
How far has it progressed?
How much longer
will you be able to operate?
I need to know your plan
so I can keep up.
Don't worry about what I'm doing.
Worry about yourself.
As a doctor, father, and teacher,
you were totally disqualified today,
you bastard.
You should be
more respectful toward me, Yongju.
Without me,
you have no other alternative, right?
"What gets us into trouble
is not what we don't know.
It's when we boast about something
we think we know that does."
This is something Mark Twain said.
Looking at you now
made me think of that saying.
What is that supposed to mean?
It means…
that you were actually Plan B, Jinman.
(Hope, Love, Service)
(Kang Dongju)
(Dr. Romantic 3)
There's a possibility
that his hand won't recover
to the way it was.
Should we get married?
I think someone came into my room
without permission.
(Woo Sangmin)
Maybe it has something to do
with the incident from three years ago?
I love my dad.
And I respect him
more than anyone else in the world.
- At this point, that offer…
- Will you take it?
How much of this did you plot out?
Just what are you planning
right now?
