DOCTOR X: MAFIA IN WHITE

The siblings lost their house to a government airstrike

along with their parents.

They moved in with relatives,

but civil war soon forced them to flee again.

Hold my hand tight and watch your step.

After harrowing days of wandering the streets,

doing their best to evade soldiers and looters

-and scavenging through ruins to survive… -Wow.

Drink this.

The two eventually collapsed from malnutrition.

Even as they lay there,

they held hands, refusing to give up on each other.

And the White Wings Medical Corps didn't give up on them either.

Does it hurt?

Dr. Kim Seung-hyo, a world-class surgeon and distinguished medical professor,

turned his back on wealth and fame

to found the White Wings Medical Corps and settle here in Lagota.

His daughter also became a doctor,

and even though he was asked to return to Korea,

he left everything behind and went to Lagota.

The greatest treasures in his simple life

are these pictures drawn by the children.

Baba.

-The children call Dr. Kim "Baba." -Thank you.

Lagota's Baba, the white-coat hero.

However,

Baba Kim Seung-hyo can't do this alone.

-Patient coming through. -Clear the way.

The civil war continues.

-Let's get her to the treatment room. -Medical supplies are dangerously low.

Baba Kim Seung-hyo barely managed to receive a heart transplant

under these poor conditions.

All the children prayed for Baba.

-Baba! -Baba!

Please help the children of Lagota.

Please become a baba for these children.

Please help them continue to smile.

DOCTOR X: MAFIA IN WHITE

Okay, let's go.

Time to go outside.

-Neema, open. -Good job.

Teacher.

Yes?

Is Baba good?

Good people?

Right.

He saved you,

Neema,

and your friends.

He teaches you too.

You said that yourself.

Am I good?

What about me?

Hey.

Baraka.

Baraka!

Na-gyeong!

My family looks nothing alike, right?

Gosh, I'm really bad at drawing.

Won-jin.

Your dad's a doctor.

Yeah.

So have you played doctor with him too?

No.

I got into big trouble with my mom

when I picked up his stethoscope.

And my dad's too busy to play with me.

I know he's a great doctor and all, but…

Hey, where are you going?

Na-gyeong!

MOM, DAD KIM SEUNG-HYO, KIM WON-JIN

"PLAYING DOCTOR" BY PARK TAE-GYEONG

How about we go and play doctor now?

PARK TAE-GYEONG

"PLAYING DOCTOR" BY PARK TAE-GYEONG

No!

GUSEO UNIVERSITY SEONAM MEDICAL CENTER

It's been ages since we've seen

Dr. Yoon from thoracic and Dr. Sim from cardiology.

Well, joint department meetings are rare.

It's always tough going into briefings on organ donation surgery.

I agree.

For his heart transplant,

I heard Dr. Kim Seung-hyo personally requested Gye Su-jeong.

Apparently, she did his first transplant.

I know.

Who on earth is Gye Su-jeong?

And he wants Dr. Jo to be the anesthesiologist.

Did you know, sir?

That Dr. Jo is Dr. Kim Seung-hyo's daughter?

No.

I had no idea.

You didn't know either?

I was actually wondering if she was related to him.

I'll have to ask her in a bit.

Apparently, she changed her name from Kim Won-jin.

Everyone's talking about it.

I'm sure she had her reasons.

It's a re-dissection,

so we need to make adjustments to align with her surgical plan.

I'll get on that, sir.

Jeez, I can't ask her. Why do they look so serious?

I don't see Park Tae-gyeong either.

Good job, Hyeon-a.

It's healing well.

Dr. Gye stopped by earlier

and said the same thing.

I see.

Thank you.

No, you should have it.

Dr. Gye gave it to me.

I have tons.

You sure do. Good for you.

Excuse me, Dr. Park.

That famous doctor,

the one who founded a relief organization…

Dr. Kim Seung-hyo.

Yes, him.

Right now, Hyeon-a wants to be like Dr. Gye,

but her original dream was to be like Dr. Kim Seung-hyo.

I even sent donations to Baba with my allowance money.

Rock, paper, scissors.

Hyeon-a really wants to meet him,

saying he's a great doctor for helping sick children overseas.

She wants to wish him a quick recovery.

Before we eat,

let's play doctor.

You can't tell your mom and dad, okay?

Today,

you'll be the doctor.

Young doctor.

Isn't it time to eat?

I'm okay. Please excuse me.

I'm the one

who took Dr. Gye to Kim Seung-hyo.

I wanted to show off.

I wanted to show that great doctor

how amazing my student was.

I took her there to learn,

but the fallout followed us here.

So…

why not resent me instead?

Don't take it out on Su-jeong.

She still has nightmares and can't even open that child's letters.

So take it out on me,

Jang Hui-suk, the arrogant fool.

He was my parents' oldest and closest friend.

He lived with us for a year

while the new hospital was being built.

By your logic,

since my parents are the ones who brought him to our home…

then I should be upset with my parents.

But my parents did nothing wrong.

I know that much.

Aunt, I have something to tell you.

Did you operate on the patient with the epidermoid cyst?

Did you see it?

You should've seen me scoop out the tumor with a cup.

A cup?

Are you crazy?

But Dr. Kim said he did it back in the day.

-What? -That tumor

had kept the patient from sleeping on their back.

Now they can, thanks to me.

Do you know what they went through?

You couldn't stop the bleeding, and they kept passing out from the pain.

But they were dying

from late-stage cancer anyway. I figured it was the least I could do.

And not because Dr. Kim suggested adding them to the Doctor X case logs?

What's wrong, Aunt? It was a new procedure--

How do you know for sure it was an epidermoid cyst?

It was in the data.

Was that really for the patient?

Or was it to see if you could pull it off, what the tumor looked like,

what would happen if you cut into it,

and how far you could push a surgery without anesthesia?

I mean…

That's not why--

You need to ask yourself.

Was that surgery done

solely and purely in the patient's best interest?

Teacher is really angry with me.

Why?

I guess I'm…

a monster?

No way!

You're not a monster!

Baraka.

Monsters shoot.

Monsters drop bombs. Monsters fly airplanes.

Su-jeong, you're not a monster.

My dream is to be a doctor.

Being like you is my dream.

I want to become a doctor.

You can go in.

He's sleeping, so he won't even know.

It's okay.

You heard, right?

About Park Tae-gyeong and the cushion.

Dr. Gye saved his life again.

While I just stood there watching.

So these are the battle scars you got while saving those children from the fire.

People say these are proof…

that you're an angel.

Dr. Gye Su-jeong?

It's been a long time, sir.

Park Tae-gyeong?

It's me, Tae-gyeong.

Director Park Yun-il's son.

I brought my sketchbook

in case you forgot who I was.

Do you want to see it?

I drew pictures with you

and practiced my handwriting.

You told me to throw this away because it was a secret.

But I couldn't dare do it, so I kept it well hidden.

You said you wouldn't treat my parents if they got sick,

so I didn't tell anyone.

I even drew pictures from when we played doctor.

So have you played doctor with him too?

Na-gyeong!

Na-gyeong…

You can get clean.

Remember what I told you in the ER

when we ran into each other?

I said now that we've reconnected,

I could help you get clean.

Remember?

Please come down.

Why won't you believe me?

Na-gyeong, that's…

Please get up here. I'm on the rooftop.

It wasn't a hallucination.

We played doctor.

It happened.

Whenever I slept over at your house…

he gave me gifts.

Let's go up to the room now.

A secret…

He said it was a secret.

Okay, I hear you.

I need you to get up here right now!

Your mom…

gave my mom money.

What?

You know,

everyone says that your dad

is an angel.

Na-gyeong.

It's the drugs talking right now.

-You're just confused. -Won-jin.

I'm so happy

to see you again.

Good.

Me too.

So just take my hand and--

I'm so happy that I can show you.

Watch closely.

Your dad…

is a monster.

A long time ago,

my dad said you'd come here for your transplant

if a donor became available.

That's why I chose to intern here.

Because I had to ask you something.

Sir?

You look so peaceful.

Excuse me. Are you okay?

Oh, Ms. Jang!

Let me help you up.

Tell me what's wrong.

Let me take you to the ER.

-I'm okay. -No, you're not.

I've never abandoned a patient who needs help.

You can't go. You're having trouble breathing.

Lean on me.

Dr. Kim.

You're such a good doctor.

Me?

Of course, I am.

So lean on me, and let's go in.

You hyperventilated a bit, so let's get you checked out.

Here.

This is for you.

What is it?

You get to have it today.

Please enjoy it,

and take good care of your patients.

But I don't have any patients because the ER is closed.

-I can't take this-- -Goodbye.

But…

You're okay, right?

He's dependent on pain medication,

so he can't hear anything anyway.

And he won't remember what happened.

I wish we could do the same.

Why are you looking at me like that?

Dr. Gye.

Is it true?

Were there other children too?

-Ms. Jang. -You're home.

-Eung-gu, get her some water. -Okay.

Where's Su-jeong?

I didn't see her.

You didn't?

Or you couldn't?

I didn't have the energy

after seeing the young doctor and Dr. Jo.

Oh dear.

Here we go.

There's no way this is just for me.

I have a feeling it's a feast

Ms. Jang prepared to feed you and a couple of others.

Wow, I've never seen you

this calm around food.

Something is definitely wrong.

No, there isn't.

Did you just pick up chopsticks?

Chopsticks are for nibbling. Where's your spoon?

This isn't like you. What's going on?

No, no.

I was just kidding.

You should've clocked out by now,

but you're roaming the hospital like a stray cat.

So like a good cat caregiver,

I'm taking you in and feeding you right meow.

Meow.

Pretty good, right?

Let's eat.

I saw Ms. Jang earlier today stumbling near the lobby

and breathing heavily.

Like this.

Luckily, she got better and went home.

You know,

an ordinary guy like me

can't even begin to imagine

how you and Ms. Jang have managed to make it this far.

Or how Buzzkill Jo Won-jin used to be Kim Won-jin.

How could she not tell me? It makes me feel so left out.

Seriously.

And I don't know why Tae-gyeong, that oh-so-cheerful fool,

just disappeared from your side.

But I do know this.

I know you're all doing your best

not to fall apart.

I can see that in this this meal.

Ms. Jang made it with the desire to help you stay strong.

And her own desire to stay strong.

Dr. Gye.

Don't fall apart.

For Ms. Jang's sake.

Man…

This kind of rice takes a lot of work.

It's nutritious steamed rice.

It was cooked in a stone pot.

Buzzkill Won-jin and MIA Tae-gyeong should be eating with us.

Where are they?

ONYU NURSING HOME

It's strange. She never throws that.

She wipes it every day.

Her dementia makes her forgetful and clumsy,

but she always leaves that photo alone.

Isn't it remarkable?

Come often. You don't visit enough.

How?

How? Tell me how!

How could he?

He stopped after I found out.

I apologized to Na-gyeong,

and then her mom asked for money--

Do you call that an excuse?

Your dad…

He has a disease.

What?

God gave him the disease as a test.

Is that what he said?

Your dad is a great angel.

Even now, he's in that faraway place

caring for those in pain and expecting nothing in return.

He's serving as a good shepherd to the lost sheep--

Dad is…

Dad is a monster!

Won-jin.

How could you…

call him that?

Your dad isn't like that anymore!

Has it ever occurred to you

that your dad might have done that

to spare you from the test he was given?

Mom.

Mom…

You're a monster too.

We're never going back to that photo.

I'm no longer your daughter.

Why did you come here instead of the police?

You could've told them what he did.

So why did you come here first?

It's because you want to believe him.

Won-jin.

Now that you know the truth, we just need to believe it.

Right, Won-jin?

INTERN, KIM WON-JIN

Darn it, they need to pay you overtime.

It's so late…

Goodness.

Where's your umbrella?

My word.

Have you eaten yet?

That's…

Come here. You're soaking wet.

Aunt.

Why did you take me in?

What do you mean?

This won't do. Go and get changed.

I'll have some hot ginger tea ready.

Hurry. You'll catch a cold.

Tell me.

You're not even my real aunt.

I asked your mom that same question.

"In-ok."

"Why did you take me in?"

"You're not even my real sister."

What did she say?

"I don't know."

"The moment I saw you,

I just wanted to take you home,

bathe you in warm water,

feed you a warm meal,

and give you a warm bed. That's all I could think of."

That's what she said.

I didn't understand at first.

Remember how I was late…

to her funeral?

THE LATE KANG IN-OK

All I wanted

was to bathe you in warm water,

feed you a warm meal,

and give you a warm bed.

That's all I could think of.

That's just life.

You know?

I wanted to do the same.

For Baraka,

Neema…

and all of the children I met back then.

The bulgogi was good.

GUSEO UNIVERSITY SEONAM MEDICAL CENTER

He went to get examined.

I see.

He missed you a lot.

You look even more like him in person than in the photo.

What brings you here?

Is this it?

The album you saw that day?

Is this it?

Excuse me, but did you see…

He brought this here.

He brought…

How dare he?

What…

Look, it's Dr. Gye.

Dr. Gye!

Hyeon-a…

She wanted to meet him.

She said he told her to come.

Dr. Gye.

Just this once…

Could you fail?

Just this once.

Could you please fail?

Hi, Neema.

I'm sorry it took so long to write back.

I just didn't have the courage.

To be honest…

I'm a coward.

I'm not brave enough to read your letters.

But…

I always think about you

and wonder how you're doing.

Neema.

What do you like now?

What songs do you sing?

Does Baraka appear in your dreams?

Teacher!

Neema.

Wow.

It's so pretty.

Baraka, bum cream. No, no.

Baraka is going to get in trouble.

Night, every day. To Baba.

He's not getting better.

To Baba?

Every day? At night?

Doctor play.

They play doctor?

Doctor. Study.

They said no.

I can't.

I see.

Some kids can't sleep

because of nightmares.

So they feel better when they sleep with Baba.

Really?

Why?

It's nothing.

We raised so much money this time

that we can cover the cost of all our medical supplies.

Everyone's relieved

since the kids have nowhere else to go.

Is there somewhere else we could go?

What do you mean?

I don't know.

There's nowhere else we could go, is there?

-It's Baba. -Baba.

Good day, Baba.

-Baba! -Hello.

Good day.

Hello.

We're on patrol tonight, right?

Get some more sleep. I'll go to the clinic.

No, it's okay. Oh my goodness…

It's fine.

Why does my body feel so heavy?

I hope these fit him.

They will.

After everything you did to get them, they will.

Su-jeong.

I'll be there in 30 minutes.

Baraka and Neema. Where are you?

Neema.

Neema.

Neema!

Baraka?

Neema?

Is Baba good?

Good people?

Please…

Is there somewhere else we could go?

What do you mean?

I don't know.

There's nowhere else we could go, is there?

-Hurry, outside! Go! -Careful!

Neema!

Baraka!

Neema!

Baraka!

Baraka!

Neema!

Baraka!

Neema.

Teacher…

Let's go.

Su-jeong!

Baraka. Where's Baraka?

Don't make me start a fire.

Teacher, please leave us alone.

Poor Baraka.

Neema.

You're still outside the door.

Run, Neema!

Baraka!

Baraka!

Baraka!

Baraka!

Baraka!

Baraka.

Wait…

No.

Baraka.

One, two, three, four…

Baraka.

One, two, three, four…

Baraka.

Baraka?

Wake up.

Baraka…

No matter how long I wait…

No!

…Baraka doesn't appear in my dreams.

That makes all dreams

excruciating for me.

We removed all items of concern.

The children…

Yes, we're still looking for Neema.

We'll handle everything so it won't affect Baba.

We asked Mi-gyeong for help

to find you a foster family.

And then…

I ran away.

To another place.

LAW

It's your turn next.

That settles the old debt I owed you for saving my life.

It was nice seeing you again. You're welcome here anytime.

But…

Dr. Jang Hui-suk didn't give up on me.

Let's go home, Su-jeong.

Home…

Do I even deserve to have one?

Do I deserve to eat

and find the strength to go on?

Here.

I know you went there to die.

Do you think I'll let that happen?

Eat.

Eat this right now.

Open your mouth.

Aunt.

We…

saved that person.

What?

We…

saved that person…

and felt happy.

We…

were glad…

that he survived.

We…

saved that person…

and laughed!

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry we saved that person.

I'm sorry we saved him,

laughed, and felt happy about it.

I'm sorry I didn't know.

I'm sorry I couldn't save Baraka.

Just one bite.

I'm sorry.

-Come on. -I'm sorry.

I'm sorry for being alive.

Neema…

sent you a letter.

She's doing well at her new home.

A letter?

Then Neema can…

She learned how to read and write.

She knows how to write now.

Neema sent this…

to protect you.

Su-jeong?

-Ms. Jang! -Blessing and grace.

-Mi-gyeong! Get down here! -Baraka and Neema.

My friends.

My saviors.

Dr. Gye.

Please. Just this once.

Could you please fail?

Do you have dreams too?

Nightmares?

But…

you were all alone.

I'm going to save that person again.

That monster who buried his face

in Baraka's chest

to survive the flames.

That monster who took away your voice.

I'm going to save him.

He'll get a new heart

and look for ways to be around children,

and his followers will keep covering for him.

And then one day,

he'll die peacefully,

mourned and respected by all.

But that's too easy.

That's too…

good for him.

PATIENT: KIM SEUNG-HYO PRIMARY SURGEON: GYE SU-JEONG

Everyone.

A moment of silence.

We honor the donor and their family,

whose choice was a beginning, not an end.

My last patient…

Yes, understood.

They're putting the donor under.

My last surgery…

They're inducing the donor now.

Let's begin.

Second surgeries always have more adhesions to deal with.

Keep us posted so we can stay on schedule.

Yes, Doctor.

You're playing music today, Dr. Jo?

Yes.

The patient asked for songs and ambient sounds he liked.

Oh, Dad!

Hello.

May the children's nightmares…

their screams…

and their pain…

follow you to your bed.

He's just not that kind of person.

But that's not the case for me.

Closing the hospital?

Damn it!

Somehow we both survived

and made it all the way here.

You're done being a doctor after this!

Do you believe in God?

I hate God.

I'm stopping

the surgery.
