DR. ROMANTIC SEASON 3

THE CHARACTERS, PLACES, ORGANIZATIONS, AND
EVENTS IN THIS DRAMA ARE WORKS OF FICTION

(tense dramatic music)

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

You have nothing to be afraid of.

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

Are you perhaps...

thinking about being the head
of the trauma center, Master Kim?

Someone more intense...

than me will be.

HOJUN: Still,
how can you bring in Kang Dongju?

Someone more intense than you?

He has a bigger dream

for Doldam Trauma Center
than anyone else does.

Who has been working the hardest
for the provincial budget?

It's you, Director Park.

Without a doubt,

he will have brought his own solutions.

Isn't Master Kim just trying
to start internal strife?

How much authority
are you planning to give him?

I'm thinking about giving him
full authority.

What do you think, Director Park?

Even authority over personnel management?

Why not?

Don't you think Master Kim is wielding
his authority however he wants?

(soft sigh)

DONGJU: Gauze!

More gauze, please.

(suspenseful music)

Richardson.

CURRENT TIME
OPERATION DURATION

(sighs)

WOOJIN: Are you really going in alone?

DONGJU: What are you worried about?

If you're risking
a patient's life for bravado--

DONGJU:
You have to have skills to have bravado.

(scoffs)

It's not too late for me to go in
as your first surgical assistant.

DONGJU: Just don't get too impressed
by my surgery.

I don't get impressed easily.

DONGJU: And if I do manage to impress you,

will you work with me?

I know you're actually curious
about this place.

Isn't that why
you keep showing up in front of me?

I am curious
about what you're trying to do.

DONGJU: Then come work with me.
I'll impress you.

DONGJU: The spleen is completely ruptured.

I'll work on the liver
after the splenectomy.

Right angle.

(hissing)

DONGJU: Tie.

(upbeat hopeful music)

-Cut.
-MYEONGSIM: Cut.

DONGJU: Tie.

-Cut.
-MYEONGSIM: Cut.

DONGJU: Metzenbaum.

Taking out the spleen.

CURRENT TIME
OPERATION DURATION

(scoffs)

(phone vibrating)

Yes, Eunjae?

How's the surgery?

WOOJIN (over phone):
It took him only 15 minutes

to take out the spleen.

What's with that crazy speed?

He's going that fast

even though it's just him and Nurse Oh.

That's crazy.

What about you?
Is it going to take you a while?

I was changing my scrubs.
I'll be there soon.

DONGJU: We got the spleen done,
so I'll be moving on to the liver.

Pledgeted suture.

EPISODE 14

(exhales sharply)

(groans)

I don't have time to waste.

(soft gasp)

(foreboding music)

(gasps)

(gasps loudly)

(Eunjae gasps)

(dramatic music)

OPERATOR:
The call has been forwarded to...

This brat isn't answering the phone again.

(sighs)

-Nurse Eom.
-HYEONJEONG: Yes.

Did you find
the female high school student?

No. Two staff members searched
the hospital, but couldn't find her.

However...

(softly)
According to the guardian,

she ran away from home every now and then.

Ran away from home?

He said he had just found her
after two months and was taking her home.

Could it be that she ran away again?

I think so.

OPERATOR:
Your call has been forwarded to...

Why are you being like this?

-(door opens)
-(Eunjae grunts)

Dr. Yoon Areum, hurry!

-EUNJAE: Nurse Eom, covers, please!
-HYEONJEONG: Yes, Doctor!

(Areum gasps)

What's going on, Dr. Cha?

-I found the baby in the women's bathroom.
-What?

In one of our bathrooms?

-Nurse Eom, give me a BVM, please.
-Yes, Doctor.

(tense music)

Give me a stethoscope, Areum.

Yes, Doctor.

The heart rate is too slow.

I'll start compressions.

Intubation, please.

Not that one. The straight one.

-Straight blade no. 0.
-Straight blade no. 0.

Oh, yes.

Have you ever intubated a newborn?

I did it once when I was a resident.

-Here you go.
-Okay.

(suspenseful music)

(sighs)

Give me an uncuffed 3.5 mm tube, please.

(gasps)
Oh, wait.

How far did PALS say
the neonatal intubation tube had to go in?

It said...

-It said nine centimeters.
-Okay, nine centimeters.

(exhales shakily, inhales sharply)

EUNJAE: Make sure
it's deep enough to not fall out.

Make sure it's not too deep
or it'll only ventilate the right lung.

Areum, the sound.

(exhales shakily, inhales sharply)

It sounds good.

-AREUM: The heart rate is up too.
-(sighs in relief)

I'll take over.

(whimsical music)

(soft groan)

(exhales shakily)

There's an incubator at the Trauma Center.

It's important for newborns
to maintain body temperature.

Nurse Park, incubator.

-NURSE: Yes, Nurse.
-Dr. Areum,

check if the tube went in properly
with the portable X-ray.

We checked it with the stethoscope,
but just to be sure.

I have a trauma operation.

You can go. I'll take care of everything.

Thanks.

AREUM: Nurse Eom.

Please record the Apgar score.

The first results were zero, one,

zero, zero, one, so put down two points.

Ten minutes later,

it was two, two, one, one, one,
so put down seven points.

We should call the police first.

Let's take care
of the baby's umbilical cord before that.

Do we have an umbilical clamp?
If not, I'll take the Kelly and Metz.

We have one. Hold on.

OPERATOR: Your call has been forwarded
to an automatic voice message...

(rattling)

(exhales deeply)

Gosh, how could this happen
to such a pretty little baby?

Tell me about it.

The baby went through
such a huge ordeal...

(inhales deeply)
...after just being born.

What's the matter, sir?

Why is this here?

That was wrapped
around the baby here. Why?

This was...

my daughter's.

(dramatic sting)

DONGJU: How much fluid has been drained?

DOIL: Not a lot,

but the vitals
are still not looking too good.

Is there bleeding somewhere else?

-DONGJU: Cut.
-MYEONGSIM: Cut.

DONGJU:
There's more bleeding in the chest.

DOIL: Is Dr. Cha still not here?

Please hurry up and check.

DONGJU: It might be the tube's position.
I'll put another one in.

(suspenseful music)

I've done this many times, so don't worry.

Scalpel, please.

Tube, please.

Not that one, but a right-angle tube.

(thrilling music)

-Kelly.
-(exhales softly)

MYEONGSIM: Bottle, please.

DONGJU: Another Kelly, please.

Suture.

MYEONGSIM: Cut.

You know all kinds of things now,
Dr. Kang.

DOIL: The trauma center in the US
must have been pretty tough.

DONGJU: You'd be even more surprised
if you knew how much I've been through.

EUNJAE: How is it going?

(Woojin exhales sharply)

-He just put another tube in the chest.
-(water running)

EUNJAE: What? He did what?

DONGJU: Irrigation.

DOIL: Oh, nice timing, Dr. Cha Eunjae!

DONGJU: Suction.

Give me the drain, please.

Suture.

(tense music)

(Eunjae exhales deeply)

EUNJAE: He put that in?

And he's a GS.

EUNJAE: How much bleeding is there?

NURSE: 500 milliliters from the chest.

EUNJAE: Did you do this, Dr. Kang?

-DONGJU: Cut.
-MYEONGSIM: Cut.

DOIL: About that, Dr. Cha Eunjae,

the patient was still bleeding--

DONGJU: If the bleeding continues,
I'll do a chest exploration.

EUNJAE: That's something I'll decide.

DONGJU: If you wanted to decide on that,
you should've been here on time.

No.

You shouldn't have left
the Trauma Center in the first place.

-Cut.
-MYEONGSIM: Cut.

EUNJAE: I won't make any excuses.

I'm sure you are aware of what condition
the emergency patient was in.

DONGJU: No, you'll have to make an excuse.

Otherwise, you might have to leave
the Trauma team.

(tense music)

(scoffs)

(upbeat music)

VOLUME 14
THE ADDICTION TO SUCCESS

(soft music)

SABU:
Is this your first pediatric patient?

Yes, I've only seen data videos.
It's my first time operating on one.

SABU: In a way,
the most difficult and unpredictable thing

is surgery on a young child.

Even general anesthesia is too risky.

Is there something on my face? What is it?

Well...

you were once six years old too, right?

What kind of nonsense is this?

-Of course I was.
-(soft chuckle)

I just don't remember what I did
as a six-year-old.

Why did you become a doctor, Master Kim?

Well, there was

no particular reason.

Really?

I thought you would've had
some grand, marvelous reason.

(chuckles)

(clicks tongue)
I vaguely wanted

to know what success was

and chose to be a surgeon
since I only had my brain and hands.

(sucks teeth)

So here's another thing we have in common.

I also happened to become a doctor
because I got good grades.

(scoffs, chuckles)

(sighs)

I used to make
a lot of money at one point,

and I would get cocky
and consider myself successful

because everyone around me
would call me a doctor.

Sheesh.
(soft chuckle)

How did you become Master Kim then?

(pensive music)

Someone...

started calling me that.

Was it the new Trauma Center doctor,
Dr. Kang Dongju?

No.

Oh, so it was Dr. Yoon Seojung?

No, it wasn't.

Who was it then? Can you tell me?

Hey, stop talking nonsense
and check the urine.

Check the patient's condition
every 30 minutes too, okay?

DONGHWA: Then when should I clock out?

You have to keep an eye on her tonight.
She just got out of surgery.

And she's a pediatric patient.

Why? You don't want to, do you?

No, that's not it.
I'll make sure to check every 30 minutes.

Make sure you do well.

SABU: And you.

Stop smiling. I might start liking you.

Hmm? Nurse Euntak.
Are you done with all your operations?

EUNTAK: Yes.

Wait, what about the flowers?

You still haven't?

Now isn't the time for that
with what's going on in the ER.

I don't have the time.

Then you have to make the time.

You can't be stuck in a stalemate forever.

If you take any longer,

it'll become more awkward.

I'll take care of it.

But...

You're not taking care of it at all
right now.

(tense music)

(soft music)

-(cart rattling)
-NURSE: The incubator is here.

Put it over here, please.

(incubator clicks)

(sighs)

EUNJAE: Dr. Kang Dongju!

I'd like to correct
what happened in the OR right now.

Correct what?

You crossed the line.

(scoffs)

General surgery and CT surgery are
clearly different departments.

Who doesn't know that?

We should cooperate with each other

as we are equals
before the operating table.

I do not take orders from you.

You were late to the operation

and I did what I had to
in order to control the situation.

I told you many times that the patient
with an embolism was in a dangerous state.

Nevertheless, I clearly told you
not to treat non-traumatic patients.

Wasn't the Trauma Center built
to save people?

However,

while you were away
to see another patient,

a critical patient died
in the Trauma Center.

Just because you can run,

does that mean you can do
both a marathon and a 100 m race?

DONGJU: No, right?

You'd probably die.

That's the difference
between a trauma center and an ER.

They may look similar, but they run
on completely different systems.

If you don't change your mindset,
I assure you

that you will not be able to stay
at the Trauma Center I lead.

(scoffs)

(tense music)

What happens if I can't stay?

I'm the only CT surgeon
in the Trauma Center right now.

What will you do without me?

You don't need to worry about that.

Soon, we'll have a CT surgeon,

a neurosurgeon,
and an interventional radiologist.

These are the teams I set up
while studying trauma in the US.

(tense music continues)

EMPLOYMENT APPLICATION

Did you know this already?

No, this is the first time
I heard about this.

So I hope you will be clear
about your stance on things.

If you still can't tell the difference
between emergency and trauma,

you can go back to Doldam Hospital.

If you want to stay at the Trauma Center,

follow my instructions.

Are you...

kicking me out?

Would you like me to?

(tense music continues)

(Eunjae sighs)

He's practically trying to take over
and make personnel changes, right?

Let's calm down first.

I can't calm down
during such an infuriating situation.

He just got here and he's trying
to boss his juniors around.

No way. Kang Dongju wouldn't have meant it
in that way.

He said he put together a team
while in the US.

"I have my own team."

"If you won't follow me, get out!"

He practically declared war.

You felt that way too, right?
It's not just me.

Absolutely, 100%.

I'm telling you,
Kang Dongju isn't that kind of guy.

HOJUN: No.

Kang Dongju is that kind of guy.

INSU: What are you doing here?

Where were you all this time?

Well, I'm on call today.

Please go on. What do you mean by that?

I know him well as I've been watching him
ever since he was a fellow.

He's a totally ambitious person.

He wanted to advance in his career

but came here after getting kicked out

after performing a high-risk VIP operation
where the patient died.

And look.

Even now, he's doing everything he can

to take over the Trauma Center.

As they say,
legends are exaggerated and glorified.

It turns out
he's just an ambitious person.

(scoffs)
What do we do?

WOOJIN: What are you thinking?

What does that mean?

It seems like you're causing
problems and conflicts

between people on purpose.

We don't have the time.

-(mouse clicking)
-What time?

Time for friendly conversations
and persuasions.

I'd rather go head-to-head to see
who'll make it and who won't,

who'll go together and who'll give up.

It's better to quickly determine
who stays and who goes.

That way it'll be less tiring
and time won't be wasted.

Is that how you sort people?

If it's necessary.

Master Kim trusts you.

I know.

(scoffs)

However, you do things very differently
compared to Master Kim.

The goal may be the same,
but we have different ways to achieve it.

Master Kim thinks
the process is more important.

(scoffs, inhales deeply)

He had many irregular methods
of achieving his desired results.

Yet, he's never violated
his beliefs and principles.

There can be different interpretations.

Anyway, how did it feel

watching my operation?

May I ask why

you acted so rashly?

Because Master Kim is my opponent.

I should go against him properly,
even if I have to be rash about it.

(scoffs)
It sounds like

you're trying to beat Master Kim.

(scoffs)

It seems like you understand.

You're right. That's why I came back.

I wanted to see if I can beat Master Kim.

HOJUN: Speaking of which,

since it's like this,

let's make our voices heard.

Make our voices heard? Should we protest?

No, that won't work on Kang Dongju at all.

Let's simply boycott him.

(comical music)

Hey.

He sent all the patients
to Doldam Hospital

while idly sitting around,

but told Cha Eunjae to get out
after she operated on an embolism.

That doesn't make any sense!

All because he's an original member
of Doldam Hospital?

It's not like we care
about who came first.

How dare he try to boss us around
and take over things!

Who's been guarding Doldam Hospital
for the last three years?

INSU: That's a bit extreme, Hojun.

I wouldn't take it to that extent.

Anyway,

I think he needs to be humbled
at least once.

If we don't do something from the start,
his ego will only get bigger.

We won't be able
to do anything later then.

(slams on table)
That's enough, Dr. Yang Hojun.

INSU: Is this really the time?

We don't even know

when the provincial budget officers
are coming.

(slams on table)
Exactly!

If he's in a hurry to get
the budget approved, he'll listen to us.

Negotiations are supposed to be cutthroat.

I agree with Dr. Yang.

INSU: Nurse Joo!

Honestly, we have a lot of complaints
about Dr. Kang too.

He suddenly wants blood refrigerators
to be added to Trauma Bay.

The nurses will have to manage them,
but he didn't even discuss it with us.

YEONGMI: We're against him
making decisions unilaterally.

I agree.

-I agree with boycotting him.
-Hey.

You should make your stance clear.

Will you be acting with us or not?

Eunjae, not you too.

Which side are you on?

Are you on our side or Dr. Kang's side?

This is not about picking sides.

This isn't right!

WOOJIN: I'm against it.

Regardless of how angry you are,

I don't think a boycott is right, Dr. Cha.

"Boycott" is putting it nicely.

It practically means
making someone an outcast.

Dr. Kang was the one
who started casting people out.

Obviously, he thinks
we're not on the same team.

You can calmly ask him

what he's thinking.

Enough!

This only concerns the Trauma Center.

Doldam Hospital doctors
do not have a say in this.

So what will you do?

YEONGMI: Exactly.

The interim head of the trauma center
seems to do whatever he wants.

Apparently, he's bringing
his own team from the US.

I can't believe this.

He's basically trying to run
the Trauma Center however he wants.

Then what do we do now?

We should act.

Act how?

We're going to boycott
Dr. Kang Dongju together.

Dr. Yang and Dr. Cha are on our side too.

NURSE: Boycott?

Will that work?

(nurses murmuring)

Dr. Cha Eunjae.

Hey, Yang Hojun.

DONGJU: What are you doing right now?

This isn't just your Trauma Center.

I can no longer accept
your dogmatism and self-righteousness.

EUNJAE: Please withdraw the orders

that you gave unilaterally
over the past few days.

Until you do, the Trauma Center staff
will take group action.

I want you to be clear.

So are you saying
you're leaving this center?

No, the Trauma Center is my dream

and I put in a lot of time and effort
to get here.

Why should I give up that dream
because of you?

Return to your station
if you're not leaving.

I can't tolerate group action
that uses patients as hostages.

You're not going to treat
any patients anyway.

You're going to send them all
to Doldam ER.

(scoffs)

If you want to stop this from happening,
you should change how you do things.

We'll return as soon as you do.

Hey.

(door opens)

(door slams)

What she said.

Good luck then.

INSU: Hey.

(door closes)

(sighs)

(Eunjae sighs)

We need to talk.

(Hojun clears throat)

EUNJAE (sighs): Don't try to stop me.

I made up my mind,

and I just notified Dr. Kang about it.

You're only making things bigger,
not solving them.

Was I late because I was messing around?

No, I wasn't.

I saved someone at that time.

I saved a patient with an embolism

and I intubated and barely saved
a dying newborn.

I'm here to save people.

But he wants to ignore the basics
and change everything

without persuasion
or explanation, unilaterally!

Isn't that a bit much?

I think you're being just as unilateral.

-(tense music)
-What?

Even if you're 100% right
and Dr. Kang is 100% wrong,

you became the person in the wrong

the moment you chose this method.

Do you understand?

Then I'll be in the wrong.

(sighs)

HOJUN: Thank you for your hard work.

Thank you so much
for participating in the boycott.

First, let's have a meeting
in the Doldam meeting room.

Let's go.

Let's go now.

(sighs)

A boycott?

Eunjae is boycotting?

Yes, Master Kim.

The situation is getting out of hand.

Yang Hojun played a part in that.

What?

INSU: Eunjae and Dongju
were already at odds

with each other,

and Hojun kept urging her to take action
and caused this to happen.

Goodness.

(door opens)

-Master Kim.
-Yes?

This is the list of people

that Dr. Kang notified me
about 30 minutes ago.

They're new doctors
who will be coming to the Trauma Center.

MINGUK: Did you know about this?

No, this is my first time
seeing this list.

So he didn't even discuss it with you?

I did suspect he was up to something

when he asked for authority
over personnel management.

You're not bringing these people in
without a verification process, are you?

Let's just wait and see.

I promised Kang Dongju that I would.

I'm sure you're well aware of this,
but all of our Trauma Center medical staff

are boycotting Dr. Kang Dongju.

MINGUK: The existing staff members
are having problems with him alone.

Imagine what would happen
when the new staff come.

It will only add to the confusion.

He'll take care of it on his own.

Kang Dongju set this in motion

so it's up to him to handle it.

(sighs)
Master Kim.

My gosh, don't worry!

It's not like he'll cause
that well-established Trauma Center

to close down.

I don't think
showing favoritism toward someone...

will help this situation at all,
Master Kim.

What do you mean
by "showing favoritism," Director Park?

I mean that in someone's eyes,

this situation may seem like
only one particular person is receiving

unconditional belief and full support.

And this can break and disrupt
the faith of the Doldam Hospital staff

that had been firmly built up so far.

(tense music)

Is that "someone" perhaps

Dr. Yang Hojun?

(sighs)

You represent Doldam Hospital, Master Kim.

Please help keep the balance.

(sighs)

Do you understand?

We can't back down.

We must show him
the definition of justice.

Come on!

I don't know about justice,

but let's just finish what we started.

YEONGMI: Dr. Cha.

To win!

ALL: Without fail!

Let's go!

MUNJEONG: You couldn't persuade Eunjae?

She's angry

because I didn't take her side.
She won't answer my calls either.

(sighs)

Dr. Cha must have been very upset
because of Kang Dongju.

(Munjeong clicks tongue)

By the way,

when will I
officially be able to operate again?

(soft chuckle)
Why?

-Do you keep getting anxious?
-(sighs)

(inhales deeply)

I'm just a little frustrated.

I mean,

you already used that hand
without me knowing.

I heard you operated with Kang Dongju

on the TA patient with hemoperitoneum.

Cha Eunjae went into another OR,
so someone needed to replace her.

No, you're not allowed to operate.

Woojin,

there's only one way
a parrotbill can keep up with a stork.

(soft music)

It can be done

by looking in the same direction
as the stork.

Without feeling intimidated
by the stork's pace

and going at its own pace.

It may take some time,

but they'll eventually arrive
at the same place.

It won't lose direction

or tear its legs apart.

WOOJIN: But, Dr. Bae...

I don't want to arrive late.

I want to arrive together.

CONSULTATION ROOM 2

Honestly...
(sighs)

...I didn't expect a boycott either.

SABU: What will you do?
Should I go and help you?

DONGJU: No.
(sighs)

I won't surrender just because of this.

Why?

Would doing that hurt your pride?

(scoffs)

I wouldn't have asked you to trust me

if I was going to give up so easily.

I'll do everything I can.

Dongju.

Everything is made by people.

No matter how good a hospital is
or how good the system is,

you won't be able to do anything
without people.

I know.

However, I can't force those who disagree
to follow me.

Let me ask you something, Dongju.

What do you want to become?

Do you want to be a boss or a leader?

(sighs)

(exhales deeply)
The baby is so small.

Didn't the baby just laugh a little?

I think the baby frowned.

I see...

But how long will the baby stay here?

We're waiting for a response
from the hospital in Seoul.

There used to be a hospital
15 minutes away with a neonatal ICU,

but it closed last year.

Because of the low birth rate,

all nearby OB-GYN clinics
are closing down one after another.

I see.

Look at those fingers.

SEONUNG: What in the world
could the baby be clutching so tightly?

It's fate.

My mom said...

that when a baby is born,

they hold onto their fate tightly
in that little fist.

And then, as time goes by
and they learn human language,

they slowly lose their memory.

That's fascinating.
I've never heard that before.

Whatever it is,

I hope there's a happy fate

in that baby's hand.

YEONGMI: That's all superstition...

and something fatalists came up with.

What are you doing here
at this hour, Nurse Joo?

Aren't you working?

I see, you didn't know.

We're boycotting
Dr. Kang Dongju right now.

ALL: What?

(pensive music)

So this is the patient you operated on?

-Yes.
-I see it went well.

It wouldn't have been an easy operation.

I heard you found
the newborn in the ER too.

-Yes.
-(soft chuckle)

Good job.

But from now on,

you don't have to worry
about patients in the Doldam Hospital.

I'll take care of things on this side.

What I mean is

don't waste your time

doing things you usually wouldn't do

like a boycott or whatever
and go back to your post.

Do you understand?

I'm disappointed, Master Kim.

-What?
-So in the end,

you were on Dr. Kang Dongju's side too.

How can you not listen to anything I say
and just tell me to go?

(scoffs)

Eunjae.

(inhales deeply)
Do I look like that kind of person to you?

Do you think
I'm the kind of person to favor one person

and only take their side
to cause a rift among you all?

-I mean...
-Oh, my.

Then I must have done something wrong.

-What?
-If you saw me like that

regardless of my true intentions,

then I must have done something wrong
and taught you wrong.

No, Master Kim. That's not what I meant.

Eunjae.

No matter how just the reason is,

if the process of achieving it
isn't right,

then it isn't right.

(Sabu sighs)

Besides, you know better than anyone else

that the person closest to you was hurt
by a boycott for a long time.

Did you really have to use this method
to handle this issue?

(soft music)

WOOJIN: I'm against it.

Regardless of how angry you are,

"boycott" is putting it nicely.

It practically means
making someone an outcast.

DON'T THINK YOU'RE RIGHTEOUS, IDIOT!
GET LOST

SABU:
I'm not saying it's wrong to be angry.

You can go against it if it's unfair.

However, as you get older
and go through life

to become the adult that you are now,

instead of nitpicking and asking,
"What's wrong with you?"...

you need to ask,
"Why are they doing this?"

And put yourself in their shoes.

Once you understand them,

there can be endless possibilities
for a solution to the problem.

Okay?

(soft chuckle)

(sighs)

MYEONGSIM: How may I help you?

We're from
the Gangwon-do Budget Committee.

Are you the provincial budget officer?

Yes, that's right.

-(tense music)
-I see.

(phone vibrates)

(sighs)

(phone vibrates)

(gasps)

(phone vibrates)

Master Kim!

Did you see the text?
Right now, at the Trauma Center--

SABU: Yes, I saw it.

-What about it?
-GITAE: What?

What do you mean by that?

The provincial budget officers
are here right now!

Kang Dongju is there.

The person in charge is there.
What's the big deal?

-Hey, Master Kim!
-(door opens)

MINGUK: Chief Jang!
(panting)

-Did you see the text?
-GITAE: Yes, I just received it.

-All right. Let's go together.
-GITAE: Right.

(mysterious music)

(breathes shakily)

(sucks teeth)

(breathes shakily)

(sobbing)

They're from
the provincial budget committee.

DOLDAM HOSPITAL TRAUMA CENTER

Hello, Director Park Minguk.

We met briefly
during the last briefing session.

Oh, you're Officer Choi, right?

(chuckles)

Welcome, I was wondering
who I would be meeting.

Pleasure to have you here.

MYEONGSIM: The interim head of the center
is here as well.

Let me introduce him to you.

This is the new interim head
of the trauma center, Dr. Kang Dongju.

MINGUK: He studied trauma
for two years in the US.

They are the provincial budget officers.
Please give them a warm welcome.

I'm Kang Dongju.

Aren't you

the doctor who used to work
at Doldam Hospital some time ago?

You operated on my brother
who had liver cancer at the time.

Oh...

Do you mean... Mr. Choi Euiseok?

Goodness, you even remembered his name?

(chuckles)

After he recovered,
we went fishing twice together.

You look a lot like him.

(soft chuckle)

Let's go up first.

-MINGUK: Chief Jang?
-This way.

You seem to have a great memory,
Dr. Kang Dongju.

I did some research in advance.

DONGJU: Nurse Oh.

Please keep an eye on the ICU patient.

Yes, Doctor.

Dr. Kang Dongju is an interesting person.

There's a reason why

Master Kim brought him in
as a hidden card.

I said he was interesting,

not that I've recognized his ability,
Nurse Oh.

(scoffs)
You will recognize it soon enough.

(sighs)

(mysterious music)

Why aren't there any people?

SABU: Dr. Yoon Areum.

Did you check that patient's brain CT?

AREUM: Yes, well...

I didn't find anything problematic there.

-Yes?
-But...

Can you take a look at the abdomen?

(sighs)

He had cancer in the stomach.

It looks like it's progressed a lot too.

Given the seriousness,
I'm sure the patient knew about it too.

(exhales sharply)

Right, what about the baby?

The vitals are fine,
and there aren't any problems.

There are no nearby hospitals
that can accept newborns,

so we're contacting
the hospitals in Gyeonggi-do and Seoul.

-(gasps)
-Excuse me.

Are you looking for your baby?

It's okay.

The baby is safe.

(sobs)

(crying)

(somber music)

(crying continues)

Minjung!

What happened, you brat?

What's going on here?

(voice breaking)
I'm sorry, Dad.

I'm really sorry.
(sobbing)

I didn't know this would happen either.

(breathes shakily)
My gosh.

You silly kid,

you should have at least told me.

What if something happened to the baby?

I was scared.

(sobbing)

(crying)

My gosh.

What about you?

Are you okay?

(Minjung sobbing)

(voice breaking)
You're going to be the death of me.

(crying)
You silly girl.

You scared the heck out of me.

(wailing)

(sobbing)

-(baby coos)
-AREUM: The baby is healthy

and isn't injured anywhere.

You can touch the baby

if you put your hand through here.

(exhales shakily)

(soft music)

(cooing)

(soft chuckle)

They're so small.

One day,

this baby will use those two feet
to stand tall in this world,

just like her mom.

(sniffles, sobs)

Your daughter doesn't know
you're sick, right?

They said it's stage three already.

I don't have any money for the surgery.

Here you go.

He's a friend of mine

who specializes in gastric cancer.

We're colleagues.

I'll give him a call,
so make sure you go and get it treated.

There's also a very good treatment program
for low-income patients,

so you can go and get help from there.

Don't give up hope...

until the very end.

Doctor.

Doctor...

My gosh.

This is so generous of you.

(Minjung's dad sobs)

SABU: You have to live a long life

to see those two ladies grow.

Thank you.

(hopeful music)

(sobs)

(soft chuckle)

EUNJAE: There are times like this.

They're the moments
when I'm glad to be a doctor

no matter how tiring or hard it is

or how many troublesome patients
I have to deal with.

(sobbing)

EUNJAE: I can't quit this job
because I'm overwhelmed

by these rewarding moments.

(soft music)

-(clinking)
-(keyboard clacking)

He didn't do a dissection here
and did it directly.

EUNJAE: They say,

"You can't achieve anything
without going crazy."

I guess we're people
who are crazy for those moments

and always moving forward

to achieve those moments.

(phone vibrates)

CHA EUNJAE

EUNJAE: I love you.

STAFF LOUNGE

(phone vibrates)

WOOJIN: Pretty please.

What... is this?

Accept it first.

But why are you...

Oh.

I'll leave you two alone.

EUNTAK: No, Dr. Ung.

There's no need.

Take this to Dr. Areum
and cheer her up first.

She's in a good mood today,
so don't miss this opportunity.

Last time I checked,

Dr. Yoon was alone
in the hallway of the ER.

The universe is helping you, Nurse Euntak.

Hurry up and go.

-SEONUNG: Go.
-DONGHWA: Quickly!

(comical music)

(both mouthing)

Areum.

I have something to say to you.

Me too.

I had something to say to you too.

Oh...

Well, you can go first. What is it?

You've been having a hard time recently
because of me, right?

You've been uncomfortable because of me

while working in the ER too.

It was probably the same for you.

I shouldn't be like that...

in the hospital,
especially while treating patients.

I'm sorry, Nurse Euntak.

For making you uncomfortable.

So...

I've been thinking about it.

From now on...

why don't we make things easy...

and just be hospital colleagues
from now on?

(soft emotional music)

We're going to continue working together,

and we can't uncomfortably
stay like this forever.

Uh...

Areum.

If we're just colleagues,

I won't have any reason
to be disappointed by you

or upset with you.

And you won't have to...

needlessly worry about me either.

AREUM: Let's do that.

I want to feel at ease now.

It's your turn, Nurse Euntak.

What is it that you wanted to say to me?

I'm sorry.

I suddenly don't remember.

Let me know

when you remember.

Excuse me.

(door closes)

What happened? What's going on?

DONGHWA: What?

Why didn't he give her the flowers?

Why did she walk away?

("One Hundred Love" by Lia playing)

(sniffles)

Dr. Yoon, there's a patient complaining
of abdominal pain in bed three...

(sobs)

HYEONJEONG: Dr. Areum.

What's wrong, Dr. Areum?
Did something happen?

What is it? Are you sick?

It's nothing.

(exhales shakily)
I'm okay.

(breathes deeply)

Which bed?

Bed three.

(breathes deeply)

AREUM: I'll get going.

What's going on?

DONGHWA: Did he...

get dumped?

Get dumped?

(shushes)

(sighs)

(phone ringing)

DOLDAM HOSPITAL TRAUMA CENTER

(phone ringing in distance)

(ringing continues)

(tense music)

(inaudible)

KYUNGSOOK: It's just a formal procedure,

so just do it in a formal way.

This is an era where money is needed.

KYUNGSOOK: The only thing
that can bring in that money

is a favorable outcome
from a redevelopment.

We need to realize
the dreams of the common people

who want to turn their lives around.

Don't you agree?

DONGJU: Rather, it's divided efficiently

to make sure that severe trauma patients
receive prompt and appropriate treatment.

Yes, because the Trauma Center
isn't a profitable hospital.

I see.

(phone ringing)

Yes, Doldam...
(sighs)

(line beeping)

(groans, sighs)

(gasps)
You startled me.

Who are you?

MINISTRY OF HEALTH AND WELFARE
YEOM JUNGDO

JUNGDO:
As per the Trauma Center's permit request,

I'm here for a preliminary inspection.

By the way,

why aren't there any people here?

Well,

there are usually people here, but...

Is there a problem?

A problem? No, of course not.
(nervous chuckle)

The director
and the interim head of the center

are in a meeting
with the provincial budget officers.

(inhales deeply)

One moment, please.
I'll report this immediately.

(phone ringing)

-Gosh.
-JUNGDO: You should take the call.

This is the fourth time it's ringing.

Whoever is calling
a trauma center at this time

must be an emergency patient.

One moment, please.

Doldam Hospital Trauma Center.

Yes.

Yes.

(phone vibrates)

One moment, please.

-(tense music)
-Right,

-we must have a patient coming in.
-(phone vibrates)

(Gitae chuckles)

If you all will excuse me for a moment.

(phone vibrates)

I'm sorry. One moment, please!

BREAKING NEWS:
FOREST FIRE NEAR SABUK-EUP

(mouse clicking)

REPORTER (on TV):
A huge fire has broken out

on a hill in Jeongseon, Gangwon-do
this afternoon.

The flames are riding fast wind speeds
and swiftly engulfing houses.

All that is left of the places
engulfed by the flames is charcoal soot.

The residents who made it out

had no choice but to watch their homes
burn away from a distance.

Fire personnel and fire helicopter support
arrived one after another,

but it is said that it is difficult

to actively extinguish the fire
due to the strong winds

-and high, steep mountains.
-Mr. Lee!

REPORTER: Currently, fire authorities say
they will make efforts

to minimize the damage
to the surrounding area

-and nearby chemical fertilizer plants...
-(sirens wailing)

...by deploying all available personnel
and taking every possible measure.

All right!

Let's not get our spirits low.

You're supposed to stumble a little
on the path of justice.

You know that, right?
(chuckles)

Nurse Joo, cheer up.

It's only been six hours.

Come on, cheer up!
(grunts)

You seem to be enjoying yourself.

Enjoying myself? I'm having a hard time.
(clears throat)

(sighs)

EUNJAE: Let's get up, everyone.

Why? Are we going somewhere?

Let's go back to the Trauma Center.

What are you saying?

It hasn't even been a day.
Are you giving up?

You said you're having a hard time too.

Let's change our tactics.

The problem won't be solved
if we just sit here.

Even if we do fight,
it's better to do it face-to-face.

Hey.

If he was willing to talk it out,

we wouldn't have done this
in the first place.

Kang Dongju doesn't have any common sense.

You had no common sense
from the start either.

And yet you're doing fine,
after a few years.

-Hey, Cha Eunjae, you--
-(phones buzzing)

NURSE 1 (gasps): A forest fire?

-Don't we have to go?
-Right?

NURSE 2: What do we do?

Please move.

I have to go.

Are you really going to work
under Kang Dongju?

It's all over if you go now.

You'll have to do
what Kang Dongju tells you to do!

Are you okay with that?

It's a forest fire.

(intense music)

(Woojin panting)

PARAMEDIC: Patients incoming!

(sirens wailing)

(groans)

Sir? Come on.

MINGUK: Let me look.

Paramedic Heo!

MYEONGSIM: Paramedic Heo!

(indistinct clamoring)

Move them to Trauma Bay, quickly!

DONGJU: Quickly!

Make way, quickly!

Move, quickly!

(clamoring continues)

(sighs)
It's a mess.

(intense music continues)

(breathing heavily)

-Dr. Nam.
-(gasps)

You know, right?

DOIL: Know what?

The first pupil
to ever call Master Kim, "Master."

Why are you suddenly curious about that?

Just because.

After trying to connect with Master Kim,
I got curious.

He says it's not Dr. Kang Dongju
or Dr. Yoon Seojung,

so I'm just wondering who.

(sucks teeth)

She was the first pupil
Master Kim met during his heyday.

Her name was Jang Hyunju.

You wouldn't know her.
She is your senior by several years.

WOOJIN:
What are we devoting ourselves for?

But still,

we can keep fighting.

SEONUNG: I became a doctor
because I wanted to help people.

DONGJU: That's enough.

(shouts)
I said let him go!

(shouts angrily)
There's a forest fire spreading!

CHIEF PARK: At the latest,
the fire will reach Doldam Hospital

in 40 to 50 minutes.

MUNJEONG:
We have to evacuate all of the patients.

MINGUK: From this point onward,

there is nothing a human can do.
