(The characters, places, organizations, and
events in this drama are works of fiction)

How old was I when it happened?

Look over here.

I had woken up to the sound

of my dad coming home
from work late at night.

Suddenly, he took my hand
and started dancing with me.

It seemed like he had been drinking,

but my dad looked so happy then.

It was the day he successfully performed
an open heart surgery for the first time.

As a child,

I believed my dad was the most confident,
cool, and respectable adult

in the whole world.

However,

the dad I saw as a grown-up…

Yes, give up.

From what I can see,
there is no hope for this patient.

(Professor Cha Jinman!
Give me an answer for my son's death!)

I heard he drove
his student to his death.

Is that true?

Yes, he put all the blame
for a patient's death on the student.

It's no joke.

I heard he was practically
kicked out of Hankuk University.

- Hello.
- Hello.

For two years in a row,

there were no applicants
for cardiothoracic surgery,

because no one wanted
to work under Professor Cha.

Did my dad change?

Or…

did I become
a different adult compared to my dad?

I swear it wasn't me!

It wasn't me!

Then how do you know in such detail

about the Hankuk University
resident's suicide?

And how did you know
that Dr. Lee was a colleague

of that resident?

That's because Director Park told me to…

That's not what I meant.

It wasn't Director Park. It was me.

I dug a little
because of my personal curiosity.

What are you scheming right now?

Hey.

What do you mean by scheming?

That's a little harsh.

It's not like that--

Then explain it in a way I can understand.

Just know that all of this

is for the sake
of the Trauma Center, okay?

It wasn't me.

I wasn't the one
who went into Professor Cha's room, okay?

(Doldam Hospital Trauma Center)

Director Park.

What did you do just now?

I did as you said, Master Kim.

You said a leader is someone
who must fight the big waves upfront.

Don't tell me

you're thinking about accepting
Assemblywoman Ko Kyungsook's terms?

I chose the practical route.

I can't put the Trauma Center in a crisis

just to protect Professor Cha Jinman.

It sounds like a humiliating compromise

rather than a practical route.

I did what I had to
as the director of Doldam Hospital.

No matter how valid the purpose is,

if the way to achieve it isn't just,
it's not right, Director Park.

This isn't about
what's right or wrong, Master Kim.

It's a matter of cost-effectiveness
and competence

as the head of the Trauma Center.

I've come up with a list of doctors
to join the Trauma Center.

Ah, yes.

A few of them have given me
positive responses.

I answered that out of courtesy.

He really believed that.

What should I have done then?

He was my department advisor.

I couldn't say no to his face.

That's why I politely declined
by saying I'd think about it.

Or you could convince me
with a higher annual salary.

Honestly, the amount
you're offering is not enough.

Nowadays,
local hospitals offer different salaries.

None of them said yes?

No, no one on that list

said they would come down here with you.

We didn't expect

anything like that
from Professor Cha in the first place.

He should have
at least shown his potential as a leader.

But look what happened.

He is the head of the Trauma Center,

but he wasn't here
during the building collapse incident.

He couldn't give a sincere apology
to Assemblywoman Ko

and created an even bigger situation.

In the last two months, he was nowhere
near implementing a working trauma system.

Rather, he encouraged disruption
and put forward his own authority.

Honestly, there's no reason
to cover for Professor Cha anymore.

So you're going to kick Cha Jinman out

and accept Assemblywoman Ko's deal?

Master Kim,

I think we should make a decision
before we end up losing more.

Sure, if someone doesn't have the skills
or is incompetent,

you can fire them all you want.

However,

political deals shouldn't be involved

in that decision.

Personally, I think
it's killing two birds with one stone.

Director Park.

Do you really think

Assemblywoman Ko is doing this
just because of a personal grudge?

You think she would put
that huge budget on the line

just to get Cha Jinman fired?

Is that really what you think?

If not, what other reason is there?

(Assemblyman Yoo)

Yes, this is Ko Kyungsook.

You don't have to worry too much.

The head of the Trauma Center
will be stepping down soon.

It'll only be a matter of time

before the leaderless Trauma Center
shuts down.

The calls for budgeting will stop too.

You may begin

with the eco-city contractor selection
as planned.

Yes.

(Korea, A Just Country)

Let's do that.

(Volume 12
The Courage to be Ordinary)

(Doldam Hospital)

(Emergency medical center)

Oh, Mr. Koo.

What about the elderly lady?

I don't believe
she went to the Trauma Center.

No one has seen her there.

I've checked the CCTVs.

I only saw her leaving the ER,

but her whereabouts
after that are unknown.

I didn't see her on the screens.

Nurse Eom,
did you get in touch with the guardians?

I just talked
to the elderly lady's daughter,

but she lives in Seoul.

She said she won't be able to come
until tomorrow afternoon,

because she has a son
who's a senior in high school.

Darn, what should we do?

Why? Is there a problem?

These are
the elderly lady's chest CT results.

Her aortic aneurysm is
completely swollen.

Is she in serious danger?

It's a time bomb.

We don't know when it'll burst.

We haven't heard
from Nurse Euntak yet, right?

What?

Hey!

Who are you?

My goodness, you're so pretty.

Your hands are pretty too.

They look like you've never had
to work a day in your life.

Are you coming in just now?

Yes, are you going somewhere?

I'm looking for the elderly patient.

By the way, Dr. Seo,

someone came and dropped off
your belongings not too long ago.

I asked them who they were,

but they left without saying anything.

Hello?

It's me, Dr. Seo.

Yes.

Does this even work?

Darn it.

Hello.

Are you going somewhere?

An elderly patient is missing,
so I'm looking for her.

She has dementia,
but her CT results seem to be pretty bad.

I see. Good luck.

By the way,

is Dr. Seo Woojin
still in the medical office?

Oh, he just left.

But I think he got kicked out
of the boarding house.

What do you mean?

Someone just left
after coming by the medical office

to drop off
Dr. Seo's clothes and belongings.

It can't be because he couldn't pay rent.

Maybe he fought
with the boarding house's owner.

Jeez.

(Cha Eunjae)

I'm sorry I'm late.

Sit down.

(My Daughter)

The person you're calling…

Did you receive all your belongings?

Yes.

I saw them before I came here.

To be honest,

I'm very disappointed, Dr. Seo.

Did my daughter look that easy to you?

Living together…

How could you make
such a reckless decision?

I apologize
for not letting you know beforehand.

However,

I didn't think we needed permission
for making such a decision.

Eunjae and I

are adults well over the age of 30,

and we discussed it countless times

before making this big decision.

Dr. Seo.

I wanted to be with her
because I like her.

I made that decision because I wanted us

to have a stronger relationship.

It goes to show
that you grew up without parents.

If I'm being honest,

I'm not too sure about you.

I'm letting things slide

because Eunjae likes you
and Professor Cha complimented you,

but something about you makes me hesitant

and reluctant.

I can't imagine
what it's like to live without a family.

In truth, how your parents passed away

really bothers me.

You shouldn't take
making a family

and being the head of a family lightly.

It doesn't always shine beautifully
like a rainbow.

You can hurt them more easily
because they're family,

and there are times it hurts more
because they're family.

Sometimes,

you have to endure the cruelest,

most painful times together.

That's why I wanted

someone who grew up with plenty of love
from his family to be Eunjae's partner.

Only people
who have received love can give love.

You may be a good doctor,

but being good to a family
is another matter.

Do you understand

what I'm saying?

Yes.

I'm glad you understand.

I expect you to be the one
to take care of this problem, Dr. Seo.

Please ensure
that Eunjae doesn't make a fuss again.

(Cha Eunjae)

- The person you're calling--
- Gosh, answer the phone!

(Mom)

Mom.

Did Seo Woojin tell you already?

Are you with him right now?

I just finished talking to him.

You two living together
never happened, okay?

Mom!

Get that in your head
and stop talking about it.

Don't you dare say another word.

I really will get angry.

Did something urgent happen?

Yes, a little.

It should take about two hours.

I told Insu, so--

No worries. I'll see you later.

I'll take up your next shift
and the one after that.

No, there's no need.

Just go and take care of
everything you need to.

I heard

what you went through at the university
because of Professor Cha.

I'm sorry.

I'll apologize in his stead.

No, you don't need to do that.

It has nothing to do with you.

I know

how to distinguish the two.

Still,

my father shouldn't have done that to you.

What you went through

never should have happened,
no matter what.

Call me as soon as a patient
comes in for an operation.

I'll only be five minutes
away by car, okay?

Yes, Doctor.

Thank you, Dr. Lee.

Is this why you called me here?

To make me look like a fool?

Is it fun?

Just because I don't like you

doesn't mean I don't respect you.

As a doctor, you're still admirable.

Which is why I was sorry to hear
that you were leaving the field.

Did you run a background check on me?

We can't be lenient about personnel issues

concerning the head of the Trauma Center.

How much of this

did you plot out?

Were Lee Seonung, the Trauma Center,
and Assemblywoman Ko Kyungsook

all a part of your scenario?

The scenario I came up with

involved you adapting well
as the head of the Trauma Center.

From what I recall about you,

you could do anything
once you put your mind to it.

You said I was your Plan B,

but I didn't know
you expected that much from me.

Yes.

If I'm being honest,

deep down I was rooting for you.

I wanted you to find your own solution,

one that was different from mine.

I honestly believed
it could happen until some point.

However!

However,

you're still risking your life
for futile and worthless things.

Why is it futile to protect your authority

and pride as a doctor?

What does a doctor have but honor?

Their sense of duty.

Jinman.

At the end of the day, our job is
to treat sick and injured people.

That's where we start and where we end.

Everything else is futile nonsense,
Jinman.

Sense of duty?

You know how the Korean medical community

entraps and abuses doctors

with that sense of duty like a leash?

And yet, how could you say that?

Nevertheless, it's something you can't do
without a sense of duty.

This darn hospital system won't work
without it!

What else can you do?

Are you just going to sit
and watch the dying patients?

Just how long?

How long do I have to put up
with their rudeness?

All I get in return for fixing them

is verbal abuse and resentment.

Just how long--

Until it works!

Until we find the answer
to all the irrationality.

That's why…

That's why we old folks are standing
in the front line, Jinman.

We're not at the top to work the others
to the bone and boss them around.

We're here to make a better world

with our experience and insight!

I put you in that position
not for your own honor,

but for everyone's well-being
and benefit, got it?

You were off to a good start.

If you were going to put on a performance,
you should have been more magnanimous.

The second you won that case,

you turned around
and picked on Lee Seonung.

He provoked me first.

That little punk started it.

Jinman.

When you want to pretend
to be a good boss,

you have to have
more patience and perseverance.

With more generosity.

Why even pretend
when you'll be found out right away?

Aren't you embarrassed?

What are you really trying to say?

"Now that it's come to this,
you should stop"?

Are you saying I should step down?

No, you should stay
and fight until the end!

Put your pride or whatever aside

and dedicate yourself to the Trauma Center
as a part of the team!

Pull yourself together
and hang on until the end,

so you can try and humble me, you punk.

You…

better not throw
in your resignation and run away.

If it comes to that,

we won't be friends or anything like that.

Got it?

Mom.

What are you doing?

Can't you see I'm cleaning up the trash?

What are you doing, Eunjae?

This isn't your house, Mom.

It's ours.

It's the house Seo Woojin and I live in.

- Don't you know what that means?
- That's enough.

I don't want to hear it.

You're hurting me. Stop it.

Why?

Why is my happiness

hurting you, Mom?

Do you

not want me to be happy?

I'm doing this
because I'm afraid you'll be unhappy

and regret all of this later!

"That's not going to happen."

"You're going to live well."

Can't you just say that?

He's the man your daughter loves.

I even decided to live with him.

How can you be

so unhappy about everything I choose?

Is your life perfect then?

What about Dad?
Is he respected by everyone?

You're going too far.
How dare you bring your dad into this?

So please respect my decisions!

He's the man I chose

and this is the life I chose.

And I already became independent of you
three years ago.

So, Mom…

Can you please

become independent of me?

Allow me to pour you a drink.

That's right.

Even someone like me isn't respected
by everyone.

Drink.

Woojin.

How long do you plan on staying
at Doldam Hospital?

I have no plans to leave.

Don't you have any ambitions?

With your skills,
you would be treated well

and welcomed at any hospital in Seoul.

Why are you wasting that
in the countryside?

That won't be a problem

if this hospital becomes
the best in the country.

I dream of the day

the ace of Doldam Hospital
becomes the country's ace.

Is this the romance

that Bu Yongju talked about?

No, it's not.

It's just my dream.

Your dream?

Your dream?

At that age?

What of it?

Don't you have any dreams?

Your dream, you say…

I just

wanted to instill
a sense of responsibility in him.

His competence as a doctor

is directly related to his patient's life.

I wanted to help him realize that.

I didn't think…

he would jump to his death.

To be honest,
I don't understand your generation.

You all say
whatever you want to so easily,

but fall apart just as easily
when taking responsibility.

You all have a weak mentality.

You're all so difficult

and demanding.

You don't even try,

but you want results.

You don't even work hard but complain
the second you're given something to do.

It's a wonder

what you can accomplish in that state.

Our thought processes have changed,

and above all else,

the world we live in is different.

It's no longer an era of possibilities.

To the youths, we live in an era

where we have to hold out.

Do you think…

I'm at fault for the kid's death too?

Master Kim

is tough sometimes.

Sometimes, he curses…

…and yells if he doesn't like something.

However,

he never gave up on me

no matter the situation.

No matter the situation,

he was on my side.

He was like that

not only to me

but also to everyone at Doldam.

I see.

I see.

Here.

- You think I won't hit you?
- Let go.

- You gals will get hurt.
- No--

- You--
- Why is it so loud?

Be quiet this instant!

How dare you call a doctor "gal"?

These two are at it again.

Sit down!

I said sit down!

Ow, it hurts.

As if.

Look into the light.

It hurts.

Gosh.

There was hemothorax, so I put in a tube

and the first drain was about 400 cc.

That wasn't so much.

No, but it hasn't been an hour yet.

At the current rate,
it's 300 cc per hour though.

The primary site of bleeding is…

Where do you think it is?

Hey.

I said, where do you think it is?

I don't think it's clear on the CT.

What do you have to do
when the bleeding is

over 300 cc per hour?

Sur…

Surgical…

Surgical?

Tho…

A surgical thoracostomy
should be performed.

Have you ever done an exploratory surgery?

I've been
a surgical first assistant in several.

- Is that true?
- Yes.

Okay.

You perform the surgery today.
I'll assist.

Dr. Jung,

make sure to keep the patient's vitals
stable until she gets to the OR.

Yes, Master Kim.

Nurse Joo,
please hang up the packed RBCs.

Yes, Doctor.

Pull yourself together.

Let's eat some meat after you're done.

Take deep breaths. Yes.

There you go.

Master Kim!

What is it now?

Am I really

going to operate?

What? Are you afraid?

Yes, a little.

Why did you do such a thing

when you're afraid
over something like this?

I believe
Dr. Lee Seonung did it, Master Kim.

He was the one who was in front of

Assemblywoman Ko's room too.

Tell me why you did it.

I just wanted

to get revenge in some way.

For my friend's death

and his discrimination against me.

It looks like you have a lot
to say about that incident.

Tell me.

What would you like me to do?

I thought

it would be better if Professor Cha

stepped down from being
the head of Doldam Hospital Trauma Center.

I told you
that's how you're supposed to do it.

Yes.

If Professor Cha leaves,

there would be no problems
receiving the grant for the Trauma Center,

so I felt like I needed to do something.

(Head of The Trauma Center, Cha Jinman)

Do you know how to really get revenge?

By becoming a better human than them.

Okay?

You prove to those who ignored you
and discriminated against you

that their prejudice and concerns
were misplaced and nothing but nonsense

with your skills.

There's no better revenge
than that, you know.

Can I really be that kind of surgeon?

Hey.

Why not? Just do it.

If you've endured
that long decade of training and residency

to become the fellow you are now,

you're more than qualified to do so.

So…

don't play such cheap tricks from now on.

That's not revenge or anything, you punk.

That's just destroying your own character
with your own hands.

You may be able to hide
your actions,

but your conscience

will haunt you forever.

Do you understand?

Yes, Master Kim.

Count yourself lucky, you punk.

I don't assist just anyone
in surgery, you know.

Hurry up and get ready.

Yes, Master Kim.

Excuse me, Master Kim?

What is it?

Thank you.

I will do my best.

I mean it.

Hey, don't laugh.
I might start liking you.

Now get lost and get ready.

That little…

Oh, boy.

Is anyone here?

Ma'am!

Ma'am!

- Ma'am!
- Ma'am!

Nurse Euntak, let's…

Ma'am?

Ma'am!

By chance,

have you ever felt

that ever since
the Trauma Center was built,

there's been a lot of strange happenings
at Doldam Hospital?

There's always been
a lot of strange happenings

at Doldam Hospital.

Did we build it in the wrong location?

Oh, right.

My uncle-in-law said

that during the Korean War,
a lot of people died in this area.

The field hospital at that time
became Doldam Hospital.

Then…

there must be
a lot of vengeful spirits here.

Why are you saying such scary things?

Ghosts scare me the most.

Me too.

Who said there's a ghost?

Where could she be?

- What the heck?
- What?

- You scared me!
- Gosh!

What? Darn it.

Oh, sorry.

What, aren't you guys
looking for the elderly lady?

Dr. Dong, you scared us!

My heart…

Is she not here either?

No, we haven't found her.

She wouldn't have gone
near the lake, right?

Nurse Euntak,
where are you going?

You're not going
to search by the lake, are you?

Gosh, going that far would be too much.

Nurse Euntak!

What are you doing?

Aren't you going with them?

Ghosts are known to like water.

We should just call the police.

Wouldn't that be faster?

Why don't you show
the same level of passion for Dr. Areum?

I mean,

you're putting a lot of effort
into finding a missing patient,

but you're indifferent toward Dr. Areum.

I'd rather not have
this conversation with you.

Let me ask you a question.

What would you do

if I confessed my feelings to Dr. Areum?

I mean I was pretty popular
for my looks in my school days,

so if I put my mind to it,

I'm sure it'll bother you a lot.

What do you think about this?

- Do you want to hear what I think?
- That's why I asked.

I think it'll go like this.

Come on.

It's just frustrating to watch you guys.

What do you say?

Would you like to use
the Jang Donghwa free pass?

Gosh.

It must be hard
working practically every night.

Professor Shim should be here next week,
so it should get better.

By the way,

Professor Cha and Dr. Seo Woojin

stopped by my restaurant, Come and Go.

What happened? Did they say anything?

You and I both know
Professor Cha has a rigid personality,

but he seemed very confused.

Every belief he's ever had

has been contradicted and shaken.

He must be having a hard time.

Ma'am, what are you doing here?

Are you looking for someone?

Shh! Be quiet.

You're scaring all the fireflies away.

Ma'am.

Are you not feeling well?

It must be great for them.

To be so pretty.

Excuse me, ma'am.

Where are your guardians?

They've already gone to a better place.

Living a long life isn't always great,
don't you think?

I'm all alone now,

so nothing is fun anymore.

It feels lonely, doesn't it?

That's why not anyone can do what you do.

You have to endure a lot of things alone

and take on a lot
of responsibilities by yourself.

But you're doing a great job.

Sit up straight, honey.

Sit up straight.

Yes, ma'am.

Oh, my.

They're flying around again.

Ma'am?

Ma'am?

Ma'am?

Dr. Yoon Areum!

Dr. Yoon, the hybrid OR, quickly!

Yes, Master Kim.

Okay, be careful!

Slowly, be careful.

Slowly.

Slowly.

What's the medical history
of this patient?

She has symptoms of dementia
and came in for cardiomegaly

and pulmonary edema.

Her pulse is weak.

From the moment she got here,

both dorsalis pedis arteries were weak

so I notified Dr. Ortho
that I suspect Buerger's disease.

I couldn't get into contact
with the guardians,

so I had no choice but to just drain
the excess fluid in the lungs.

The patient disappeared
after we took her chest CT,

and the CT results
showed an aortic aneurysm.

Master Kim, BP is 90/50.
And her last heart rate measured was 140.

Give her more oxygen
and prepare an ultrasound.

Let me borrow your stethoscope.

It doesn't sound good.

I think it's cardiac tamponade.

Dr. Yoon, get me a needle
for pericardiocentesis.

Yes, Master Kim.

Master Kim found her.

She's in very bad condition
so we have to perform pericardiocentesis.

Pericardiocentesis?

I'll prepare for it.

Jang Donghwa,
don't just stand there. Put in an A-line.

What?

I'm actually not on duty today…

but I'll do that right now.

Dr. Yoon Areum.

Hurry up and call the guardians.

We may have to perform
an emergency operation.

Yes, Master Kim.

Come on, please pick up the phone.

Dr. Yoon, have you spoken
to the guardians yet?

No, they won't answer the phone.

Honey.

Yes?

Don't call the kids.

They're already

busy as it is.

Ma'am.

The condition of your aorta
is very bad right now.

You may need
to get emergency surgery soon.

In order to do that,
we need the guardian to--

I'm sleepy.

I want to sleep.

Honey.

Take your time getting here.

After you finish doing
everything you need to.

Okay?

Thank you.

You chose a very nice

and cozy house.

It looks like a perfect place
for the two of you…

…to start something together.

You really like

Eunjae, right?

- Yes.
- How much do you like her?

More than words

can convey how much.

That's a nice saying.

That cowardly little girl

wouldn't have made that decision

without certainty.

I hope you cherish her.

Yes, I plan on doing that.

All right.

You can go.

(Doldam Hospital Trauma Center)

Hello.

Good morning, Dr. Cha.

Oh, you're here?

Did you stay up all night?

Last night, Dr. Lee operated
on a hemothorax patient

so I was watching over the surgery.

Dr. Ung operated?

Master Kim assisted him too.

That lucky guy.

You should get some rest.

You have huge dark circles.

Then I'll be taking my leave.

Oh, are you getting off work?

Hey, Dr. Jang. Did you sleep
in the medical office yesterday?

Yes. In the end,
the elderly patient passed away.

I barely got any sleep.

Really?

Are you looking for Dr. Woojin?

What? No, it's nothing like that.

I guess he's not here.

- Where did he go?
- Oh,

I guess things worked out between him
and the boarding house's owner.

He answered a call this morning

and packed his things and left.

Hey, what happened?

How can you come out like this
when my dad is here?

Hurry up and get dressed.

- You haven't met Professor Cha yet?
- What?

He left for the hospital
early this morning.

What?

(Letter of resignation)

This is a rather sudden decision.

Isn't this what you wanted, Director Park?

Still, I didn't think
you would decide so quickly.

There's no reason

to drag on an uncomfortable situation.

We know each other's stance on things.

Anyway,

although you weren't here long,
I'd like to thank you for your hard work.

There's always a price to pay

for every choice we make, Director Park.

However, most people

don't realize that at the moment.

Only after time has passed

will they realize

what was lost because of the choices.

That's why I always try
to be careful about everything.

I tend to take everything
into consideration as well.

Don't trust your capabilities
and intelligence too much

or else you might be proven otherwise.

Let's go. I'll escort you to your car.

No, it's okay. I know the way out.

Take care.

(Letter of resignation)

Hello, Ms. Ko. It's Park Minguk.

Generally speaking,

it's important to make it down well.

But fear of the downward slope

makes a man act petty.

(Woo Sangmin)

If you're going down anyway,

you might as well look cool doing it.

But greed

and arrogance

make you try so hard.

And in the end,

you will become a wreck.

Is there no way for a man

to look graceful

on his way down?

Dad?

Yes, Eunjae?

Where are you?

Where else?

I'm on my way home.

But…

...how can you leave
without saying goodbye?

When you have time,
you can visit me in Seoul

with Woojin.

I'll make you a delicious omelet.

Dad.

- Yes?
- Can't you go back to Seoul?

I don't want to see you like this anymore.

I don't want to hear the hospital staff
whisper about you either.

I'm having

a really hard time.

Eunjae.

I'm…

I'm really sorry.

I should have left a better impression.

I'm sorry, Eunjae.

Did you know

that when I was torn
between general surgery and CT surgery,

I chose CT surgery without hesitation

because of what you said?

What did I say?

"Do you want to hold dung or a heart?"

I did say that.

Dad.

I love you.

You have always been

a decorated hero to me.

Thank you, Eunjae.

Make sure you eat well.

Yes. Keep up the hard work.

Yes, Ma'am.

I heard that the development company
sent an official letter.

Yes, I looked at it. The environmental…

Excuse me. Wait, Ms. Ko!

- Director Park Minguk.
- Are you

just leaving like this?

Yes, I'm done with all my meetings today.

You should have something
to discuss with me.

Oh, you mean the lawsuit?

I already informed my lawyer.

The case should be dismissed
by tomorrow afternoon.

There will be no appeal.

Will that be all?

Will the Trauma Center's budget
be passed without incident then?

What are you doing right now?

- Pardon?
- Listen here, Director Park Minguk.

Every provincial budget deliberation
has its own deliberation process.

What do you mean
by "pass without incident"?

Are you trying to take tax money without
going through the appropriate process?

You made the promise first, Ms. Ko.

What a troublesome man you are.

What promise did I make?

I am a government employee

who works for the people.

Are you now saying

I used the provincial budget
as some kind of bait?

Ms. Ko.

I'm really sorry,

but I don't understand
what's going on right now.

Why have you suddenly changed your mind?

You were there too.

Then you should have heard what I said.

That you should be
prepared for an all-out war.

Since you asked for a political war,
I said I would pay you back with politics.

The head of the Trauma Center, Cha Jinman,
has been taken care of.

Next will be the Trauma Center
that let my son die in vain.

It sounds like a humiliating compromise

rather than a practical route.

Don't trust your capabilities
and intelligence too much

or else you might be proven otherwise.

Where are you going?

Doldam Hospital.

Okay, sir.

Is something the matter?
Are you meeting someone?

No, I wouldn't say that.

- Let me.
- Here you go.

Thank you.

Is something the matter?

Are you waiting for someone?

Oh, no. I wouldn't say that.

I'll see you later.

What's going on?

Chief Jang.

What is it now?

Is someone coming today?

Are they here already?

Who's coming?

Oh…

Are they not here yet?

Who is it?

You'll find out soon enough.

When will I be able to operate again?

Gosh, I told you.

Until I say you can.

It's just that
Master Kim has been overdoing it lately.

You're supposed to rehabilitate
with a sense of ease.

If you rush things,
you'll hurt yourself again.

You know that, right?

Did your meeting
with Assemblywoman Ko go well?

Master Kim.

You were here?

You said

you were meeting
Assemblywoman Ko Kyungsook today.

I was curious about how it went,

so I came up here.

So…

did Assemblywoman Ko say she would
pass the budget without incident?

Yes, well, you see…

She first said
she'd drop the appeal for now.

For now…

What about "five now"?

What?

The budget.

What did she say?
Did she say she'll pass it?

I'm meeting with the people

in charge of the budget next week.

And then?

Then…

they'll have to go
through various deliberations

since they have to enforce taxes.

I mean…

didn't you say she would
pass the budget without incident?

About that, Master Kim--

Now, now.

Let's keep it simple
and get straight to the point.

So…

what did Assemblywoman Ko say?

She said it was an all-out war, right?

How did you know that?

There was a moment when Assemblywoman Ko
told me her true intentions

for the first and last time.

But you'll have to be prepared
for an all-out war, Master Kim.

The head of your Trauma Center
came at me asking for a political war,

so I should pay you back with politics.

The civil suit

was like the foundation
for forcing us to kick Cha Jinman out.

She had no intention

of giving us the budget.

Should I meet
with Professor Cha Jinman again?

Even if I have to get on my knees
and apologize to bring him back,

I'll go and do that.

Do you really think Professor Cha
would come back if you did that?

What do we do then?

Meeting the people in charge of the budget
without the head of the Trauma Center

will definitely reflect poorly on us.

You have nothing to be afraid of.

In an all-out war, you go all-out.

An eye for an eye

and a tooth for a tooth.

Are you perhaps

thinking about being
the head of the Trauma Center, Master Kim?

Someone more intense

than me will be.

Someone more intense

than you?

Who are you?

I'm Kang Dongju, a GS at Doldam Hospital.

And you are?

I'm Seo Woojin, a GS at Doldam Hospital.

There you are.

It's been a while, Master Kim.

You haven't changed at all.

Are you back now?

Yes.

I'm back.

(Dr. Romantic 3)

Dr. Kang Dongju is going to be
in charge of the Trauma Center?

How much did you think about doing
while coming here?

We'll start

by following the rules.

Send them to the Doldam ER.

Move them to an OR.

I'll be right there.

You shouldn't treat
or operate on non-trauma cases!

Let me ask you something, Dongju.

What do you want to become?

May I ask why you acted so rashly?

I wanted to see if I can beat Master Kim.
