You can get the lights
back up today, right?

Seok-hyeong, I'm holding a cup of coffee.

Sorry.

How long has this place been empty?

Gosh, look at all this dust.

-About three to four years?
-Gosh.

I feel like I'm in a club.

That light will burn out soon.

Goodness.

Mom, the power went out again.

Can you get a technician quickly?

I see.

He'll be here shortly, then.

Okay.

Why didn't you also ask her
if it's okay for you to drink coffee?

She said one cup a day is okay.

You haven't thrown those out yet.

Why would I throw them out?

By the way,
are you really not going to do it?

Gosh, no. Of course not.

Then why are you here?

To see you. I was worried about you.

Then just do it.

You just need Ik-jun.

You don't need me.

He said no.

Seriously? He won't?

I won't do it either.

I don't have time anyway.
I need to help my guys with their thesis.

-Help me too.
-Why should I?

By the way, did you see Ji-eun today?

Yes.

Did you buy her things that she likes?

I bought her some food

and gave her a Bluetooth speaker
so that she can listen to music.

If only you were half as nice as that
to your friends.

Did the lights go out again?

Yes. This one was flickering
for a bit and burned out.

Gosh, it looks like
you probably should redo all the wiring.

We'll get this working temporarily,

-but call a bigger company if it reoccurs.
-Okay.

You could've worked on my room tomorrow.
You didn't have to work so late.

Thank you.

-All right.
-Oh, no.

Be careful, sir.

Sir, you should shut off the breaker
before you do that.

You're not even wearing gloves.
You'll get an electric shock.

Call an ambulance.

Are you all right? Are you in pain?

Hello? The address here
is 33-1 Jogang-dong.

A man collapsed due to an electric shock.

Get here quickly, please.
As soon as possible.

Are you having difficulty breathing?

My goodness. What's happening?

Goodness.

Oh, no. What's happening to him?

Here!

We're here!

Here!

Sir.

Sir?

Sir, do you know where you are now?

Just leave him there, please.
You did great.

Hey, I'll be back soon.

He had an electric shock seven minutes ago
and got a mild burn on his right hand.

I performed CPR for two minutes.

His heart is pumping again,
but it's not stable yet.

-Are you a doctor?
-Yes.

His vitals seem unstable.

-Could you come with us?
-I got an emergency call.

Another doctor will accompany you.

That one.

Are you all right?

You were extremely lucky, man.

Both of them happened to be doctors.

You can hear me, right?

Both his BP and pulse are okay now.

I see.

Why is he shivering like this though?

Hey, are you okay?

He's just cold.

Excuse me.
Can you please turn up the heater?

Can you message him or something?

Tell him to jack up the heater.

Seok-hyeong texted you, right?
I said I'd do it.

-My answer is no.
-So, you got his text?

No, that's what I'll say if he does.

I mean, aren't we too old for that?

I'd much rather go see my girlfriend.
Why would I see you guys?

Hey, are you getting engaged today
or something?

Why get all dressed up
just to see your girlfriend?

I made a reservation at a romantic place
in Busan with an ocean view.

Good for you. You're going on a date,
while I'm just going to work.

-By the way, how will you get there?
-By my girlfriend's car.

There she is. Pull over.

It looks like she's still drunk.

She pulled an all-nighter.
And we're leaving right away.

-Hey, you should drive.
-All right.

-Hey.
-Yes.

Work hard.

You prick.

According to my research,

Daeseong Hospital uses

a non-surgical procedure
to treat intussusception.

I've explained to you just now.

As for Bit-na, it's likely that necrosis
has already begun.

So surgery is the only option, ma'am.

You're sure, right?
Can she actually undergo the surgery?

She definitely needs the surgery, ma'am.

I read on the Internet that it stops kids
from growing taller after the surgery.

Don't believe things like that.

Just go to the reception
and have them book her surgery.

Okay.

-Then I'll trust you and--
-According to my research,

Daeseong Hospital
uses a non-surgical procedure to treat...

Do we have a room for Bit-na?
Call the ward again.

Yes, sir.

Please take good care of Bit-na.

-Thank you.
-No problem.

Dong-min, can we pull up your top
for a moment?

Just once, please.

My gosh, Teddy Bear.
You're here because of a stomachache?

Let me have a look.

Yes, doctor. My stomach hurts so much.

Let's see. What?

Wow, this took all the pain away.
You're totally fine now, right?

Yes, I'm fine now.

All right, then.

Let's check your mom's stomach now.

Doctor, I already feel much better.

I'm totally fine now.

All right. Then who's next?

-Dong-min, you want to try it?
-You want to go next?

Let's see. Good boy.
You're such a good boy.

Is this Busan?

I bet I got here before you did.

Let's have dinner together.

Okay. I just need to check
on a patient first.

-Doors are closing.
-Take it easy.

Who's in charge of Room 513?

Then who worked last night? You?

Who prescribed the fever reducer
to Kim Suk-hui in Room 513?

-It must've been you.
-No, it wasn't me.

Then was it you?

No, not a chance. I don't even know
what she looks like.

Right? You've never even seen her.

You prescribed it without even seeing her
because you wanted to sleep.

How dare you prescribe without seeing her?

Are you that confident as a doctor?

If you don't want to be a doctor,
just tell me. Don't waste my time.

Do you understand?

-I'm sorry.
-I'm sorry.

Hey.

Why all of a sudden?

Okay, I'll be right there.

Come on! Let's go.

Dr. Kim, the patient was hooked up
to the ECMO,

but she developed pulmonary edema,
so we intubated her.

We looked at the echo
but her heart was barely beating.

But Eun-a was okay up until yesterday.

We were going to remove ECMO
and move her to the ward.

-Does her family know?
-Yes.

Please spare us a moment, ma'am.

Eun-a has developed pulmonary edema
as her heart is not functioning well.

ECMO isn't enough anymore.

An artificial heart will be better

in reducing the pressure
on her left ventricle.

She needs surgery
either today or tomorrow.

My gosh, what should I do?

Doctor, we can't afford to pay
for the surgery at the moment.

It'll cost a fortune.

Where can I get the money?

Doctor, please give me a week.

Then I'll figure out a way
to get some money no matter what.

Please... My Eun-a...

Please save her.

We can't really wait though.
She needs surgery immediately.

If we wait, she may not make it.

What do I do, then?

Don't worry. We have many programs
to support our patients,

so I'm sure Eun-a can get the surgery.
And we can do it right away.

Hey, look into it.

-Hey, call them now.
-Yes, sir.

CARDIOTHORACIC SURGERY CHAT ROOM

5-YEAR-OLD GIRL, DCMP

WHERE SHOULD I CALL?

I have to do the surgery
and take care of this?

What do you do?

Hello? This is Kim Jun-wan
from Cardiothoracic Surgery.

Can we get some help
from the Daddy-Long-Legs Program?

Just a second, please.

SOCIAL SERVICES OFFICE

Hello. I'm Lee Seok-hyeon,
a cardiothoracic surgery resident.

Could you help one of our patients
with her surgery costs?

We can't wait.
She needs surgery immediately.

Yes, can the Daddy-Long-Legs Program
help her finance it?

She's five.

It's for implanting
a ventricular assist device.

What did you order?
Did you order tteokbokki again?

When can we find out?

Go ahead and eat.

Hey, why didn't you order burgers instead?

I got level one, so it won't be spicy.
Just eat, will you?

You haven't texted them yet?

We had to do some final checks.
We'll text them now.

If everything looks good,
you'll get the money in a couple of days.

I see. Please let me know
as soon as you hear from them. Thank you.

It's not spicy, right?

You don't find this spicy?
You need to see a doctor.

No, that will cost me.

I'll probably get a call soon.

-See? Tteokbokki was a good call.
-Just answer that, prick.

Gosh, today's been a disaster.

Hey, I'm still at the hospital.

I'm going to leave now.

Yes, where are you?

Why? I didn't eat anything. Right.

Of course.

-Where are you?
-What do you think?

What are you doing this weekend?

I've got a date.
Professor Jang is free this weekend.

Everyone's going on a date.

Is Jun-wan still seeing that girl?

This one's lasting for a while.

Why did you call?
I bet it's about Seok-hyeong.

I already said no.

No. As for that fool,
we can just ignore him.

I have a favor to ask.

-Is everything okay?
-Yes, everything's fine.

There's something I've been working on.

You know what? Let's talk in person.
You should go home.

I'm going home early for a change.

-What's up?
-Min-yeong's vitals aren't looking good.

I have to go.

-What's going on?
-Her BP keeps dropping.

It's not getting better
even after a full 100ml bag of saline.

-Has she gotten norepinephrine?
-Yes, but her vitals are still unstable.

It doesn't sound like
you can go home tonight.

YULJE'S CHAIRMAN AHN BYEONG-U
UNCONSCIOUS DUE TO BRAIN HEMORRHAGE

CHAIRMAN AHN HAS FALLEN INTO A COMA

WILL HIS THIRD SON TAKE OVER
YULJE MEDICAL CENTER?

ALL EYES ARE ON WHO WILL BE
THE NEXT LEADER OF YULJE FOUNDATION

Yes, sir.

I read the article.

I have to stay
with the chairman all night.

So take care of the craniectomy
for the subdural hematoma patient,

as well as the VP shunt surgery tomorrow.

Yes, sir.

But are you all right?

No, everyone's getting ready
for the worst-case scenario. It's hard.

-Hello, how are you?
-Not well, obviously.

My apologies, ma'am.

No need to apologize. It is what it is.

Don't worry about it.

He's the director of the hospital.

And he is in charge of the Brain Center.

Is that important now?

Right. It's nice to meet you anyway.

Will he not make it?

Frankly, it won't be easy.

But we'll do our very best.

Mr. Pyeon, you're here.

What on earth happened?

Ma'am, please spare me a moment.

Mr. Ju, why don't we have some coffee
in my office?

Don't worry about things here.

DIRECTOR JU JEON

-Hey, come and have some coffee.
-Oh, I was going to do it.

What's the point of saying that now?

Hey, come join us.

The night view is awesome.

Can you actually enjoy
the night view right now?

That punk who's still wet behind the ears
is about to inherit the hospital.

He's 40. He's not that young.

Will the hospital

fall into the hands
of his youngest son who's a doctor?

I bet he hasn't even written his will yet.

Even if he has one,

the board will have to vote
to make the decision.

But they may vote
to appoint Mr. Ju to the position.

I think you should call
the board members, ma'am.

Even better
if Andrea can call them himself.

I'm sure things will go smoothly,
but just in case. I mean, you never know.

I suggest you call Chairman Hwang
first thing tomorrow.

It's because of Mr. Ju, isn't it?

All the board members
are Chairman Ahn's people.

The other members tend to follow
Chairman Hwang's lead.

He's Chairman Ahn's friend for 30 years.

Chairman Ahn's wife just needs
to make one phone call to him.

Then it's game over.

Chairman Ahn is such a wonderful person.

But he, too, is a greedy man after all.

You can't call him greedy for this.

He's donated most of his assets.

Why did you pick the foundation
to begin with?

As for all the other subsidiaries,
they hired management specialists.

Jeez, I thought I'd ride on my cousin's
coattails for the first time ever.

We don't know yet.

I should do my best.

I called them a while ago.
Why aren't they here yet?

I taught my children wrong.

There he is.

Where did Mr. Ju go?

He probably went to his wife's office.

What an eventful year
this has been for him.

By the way,

why would Chairman Ahn pass
the hospital down to his youngest son?

I heard he has three sons.

Did the elder ones cause trouble
or something?

Is next week your last week here?

-Yes.
-Back to your hometown?

I suppose you really have no interest
in worldly matters.

Even little kids would know
the answer to that.

As for his eldest son,

he's too busy with his current job.

Hello.

Hey, you came.

Hi.

Mom, are you all right?

-What about his second son?
-He assists someone who's very high up.

Doesn't he also have a daughter?

She's the same.

It's been a while.

Dad...

His second daughter too?

Is Jeong-won coming or what?

At this rate, he'll get here
after your dad's funeral.

Mom, Andrea is in the elevator now.

Finally. Your brothers and sisters are
all here.

Jeong-won, spare me a second.

YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

-You told him, right?
-Yes.

It would be a good idea to call him now.

I know it's late, but he'll answer
because he's a businessman.

I told him to call him right away.

He's the only one
that actually listens to my advice.

He's the most reasonable of them all.

The number you've called is busy.
Please leave a message...

He's been on the phone
for so long already.

You probably didn't get any sleep.
Go get some sleep.

Do you smoke?

Since when?

Jeez, you're a doctor.
You shouldn't be smoking. My goodness.

Good.

Mom, he smokes.

I taught him how to smoke 20 years ago.

Did you talk to him?

-Have a good day.
-Thanks, you too.

Ground floor.

Such injuries can cause mild bruises
and even serious adverse effects.

It tends to happen more often
at nighttime.

So if you're a guardian, keep an eye
on the patient you're looking after.

If you're a patient
on high-risk medication,

or if you need to leave your bed
at nighttime,

please make sure
you're accompanied by your guardian

or call your nurse for help.

Yulje Medical Center
will always do its best

to ensure all patients' fast recovery.
Thank you.

PROFESSOR OF NEUROSURGERY
CHAE SONG-HWA

All right. Open your mouth like this.

How does this feel?

Both your left and right sides.

-Both feel good.
-I see.

I was worried you might experience
facial palsy, but it looks good.

You're doing great.

As for your medication,
I'll keep you on the same routine.

You can come back in three months.

Thank you for coming all the way here.

Thank you.

Well, I have something for you.

It's just something small.

It's a great book, so I got one for you.

Isn't this book amazing? I have one.

You read it too, right?

Yes, I've read it too.

-My favorite.
-I see. You've already read it.

My husband told me to give it to you.

All right, then.
I'll see you in three months.

Okay.

-Hello, doctor.
-Hello, have a seat here.

Mom, sit here.

We have the results.

A lump was seen on your CT scan,
so you got an MRI done.

Unfortunately,
it looks like it might be cancerous,

so we'll have to do a biopsy.

You aren't young,

and the location of the tumor isn't ideal,

so it'll be quite difficult
to remove it surgically.

You must've been experiencing
severe headaches though.

How did you endure the pain?

Can it be treated by surgery, doctor?

No, she needs chemotherapy
or radiation therapy.

But before that, we need to do a biopsy
to confirm the diagnosis.

I'm suspecting that it's neuroglioma.
If I'm right,

and if it's not too bad
like grade one or two,

the survival rate will be high.
Even just with radiation therapy.

If it's grade three or four,

we'll have to combine chemotherapy
with radiation therapy.

But the recurrence rate

and the survival rate
will be substantially lower.

My gosh.

What do we do?

Mom.

Mom.

Gosh, my poor mom.

It's okay.

I've lived long enough, so I'm fine.

Gosh, I don't want to hear it.

Oh, Ma'am. It can be treated.

Please don't cry... Oh, my.

First, let's get her admitted
so that we can do a biopsy.

I'll explain the plan in more detail
when we have the results.

You need to stay strong for your mother.

I'm sorry, doctor.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I feel bad.

By the way, that patient's daughter.
Doesn't she look familiar?

I feel like I've seen her somewhere.

KANGWOON MEDICAL CENTER PEDIATRIC ICU

Gosh, another skin tear?

Doctor, that last one
took a long time to heal.

My goodness.

Min-yeong, it must be stinging.

-I'll tell him off.
-Her skin is delicate,

and she had it on for too long.

My daughter can feel pain too, you know.

Right, I'll be careful from now on.

When will Professor Ahn be here?

What he prescribed yesterday is so
different from what she got last month.

She takes Vitamin K and traces elements
every Thursday. Why doesn't she anymore?

And as for the blood tests,

you used to draw 30ml.
Why do you need 70ml now?

-She's already exhausted.
-I explained everything to you before.

-Min-yeong is no longer...
-Min-yeong.

Hi, Min-yeong.

Doctor, why did her prescription change?

And last month, she was
on the TPN drip for 16 hours last month.

Why is it shorter now?

And don't you think she looks like
she's having trouble breathing?

She keeps grimacing too.
Something must be bothering her.

Ma'am, Min-yeong doesn't have the strength
to hold out for much longer.

I'm sure Dr. Jo already told you,

but we should start mentally preparing--

What's the problem?
I did everything you told me to do.

She was doing great yesterday.

Were her vitals good yesterday?

-They were about the same as today.
-You doctors rarely see her.

I know much better than you.
I'm her mother.

Then I'll have Dr. Jo monitor her
all day today.

Call me right away if anything happens.

Yes, sir.

Min-yeong.

Min-yeong.

I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry, Min-yeong.

I'm so sorry
that you have to suffer like this.

I'm really sorry, Min-yeong.

My sweet daughter, I'm so sorry.

AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY

Is BP low?
How much norepinephrine did you use?

-We're scaling it up.
-I'll do it!

My son is waiting for a liver transplant.

I see. That's why you looked familiar.

He was in and out of the hospital
all the time for six months.

He practically lived here.

Then three days ago,

his condition suddenly worsened.

My son...

I guess I should give up now.

No, don't say that.

Ma'am, he can get better.

I was so preoccupied with my son
and his illness

that I had no idea
that my mother was also ill.

It's all my fault.

What kind of mother would think
of something else

when her son is critically ill?

No one can blame you, ma'am.

DID YOU MAKE DINNER FOR MY MOM?
COME HOME NOW!

Doctor.

I'm pretty sure I'm the unluckiest woman
in the whole wide world.

I put up with my in-laws for 40 years,

and my husband

spilled every last penny we had
into his darned business.

And my one and only son...

He has a heart of gold, so he's the one
that got me through everything.

I must be cursed or something.

I guess that's why both my mom
and my son ended up like that.

I'm telling you.

I've been so unlucky in life.

Seriously, I don't even want to live.

Not even one bit.

I just want to end my life.

Doors are opening.

Take the next one.

Okay.

Doors are closing.

I performed your mom's brain surgery.

Shouldn't you be buying me coffee,
not the other way around?

When your dad came to the ER at night
with a broken leg,

I ran to the ER even though I was off
that night. And what? Just iced Americano?

It should be good enough.

If I get you something better,
it'll make you uncomfortable.

You have such a way with words.

I guess the ER isn't busy today.

You had time
to go to the convenience store.

Watch what you say.
You should never say that.

Near Bupyeong IC
on the Gyeongin Expressway,

four vehicles, including a one-ton truck,
have collided.

In total, six people,
including the 52-year-old truck driver,

got critically injured in the accident.

-They're being transferred...
-They'll get here soon. I have to go.

Two of them
are said to be fatally injured.

The Gyeongin Expressway
is partially restricted...

He was found barely conscious.

When we got there, his BP was 60 over 30.
And his oxygen saturation was around 70.

He's bled a lot due to a scalp laceration.

Get him ready for an IV
and give him normal saline.

What?

Doctor.

Doctor.

My son can finally get the surgery.

Is this a dream? I still can't believe it.

I almost gave up,
because he was only third in line.

My gosh, is this really happening?

I heard the patients before him
can't get the surgery anymore.

Thank you, God.

That's such amazing news.
I'm so happy for you, ma'am.

But I have to say, I feel so bad
for the ones who passed away.

I'm not sure if it's okay for me
to feel this happy.

I guess we're all selfish after all.

Who's your son's doctor?

He's very famous.

What's that show called?
Good Doctors. He was on that show.

-Dr. Kwon Sun-jeong?
-Yes, that's right.

He and I are close. He's a great doctor.

Wait. I think he's away today though.

He already heard the news.

He'll come back as soon as
he finishes the surgery in Milyang.

He also said he'll operate on my son
as soon as he returns.

But... Poor him. He'll be exhausted.

I see.

Is that what's happening?

Doctor, there's another patient
over there.

This kid put super glue all over a helmet,

and his dad wore the helmet
because he had no idea.

Now, the helmet is stuck on his head.
He can't take it off.

He needs to be looked at immediately.
Can you take him in first?

But then I'm dealing with an emergency
case now. Please wait.

This is an emergency case too!

He's embarrassed to death right now.

Excuse me. Coming through!

Sir, shall we go to a different hospital?

Where are you going, sir?
They haven't called your name yet.

U-ju, stop your dad.

Daddy is fuming mad.
He said he'll knock them all down.

Professor Kwon, what happened?

I didn't dislocate my shoulder,
so don't worry too much.

I can't really move my fingers,

so it's probably a radius fracture.

Get an X-ray done and call Orthopedics.

-What about Neurosurgery?
-I'm here.

Hey, you.

This is bad.

Professor Kwon, what about the surgery?

How do you know about it?

You should call another professor at once.
The patient needs surgery immediately.

Had there been someone else, I wouldn't
have come here after an all-nighter.

There's no one.

Send the patient to another hospital.

If we say we can't do the surgery,
they'll just want to take the liver.

This is his last chance.

A long midline incision is required,
so it won't be an easy operation.

Gosh, this is nuts.

Let's do this.

How?

We have him.

Me? Hey.

I am double board-certified,

but I haven't dealt with any operations
for over five years.

Transplant surgery is no joke.

I'm not talking about you.

Gosh.

Crap.

This is... Oh, right. U-ju, say hello.

They're Daddy's friends. Good boy.

But...

What if the director finds out?
Are we going to be okay?

Dr. Chae said she sorted everything out.

But we need to get his mother's consent
and explain everything to her.

Dr. Chae knows her well,
so she got her to sign it in five minutes.

Still, wouldn't this upset his doctor?
I mean, I would be.

Dr. Chae already talked to him
and got him on board.

What the heck?

She should get this off my head
if she has all that time.

Thank you all in advance.

Let's save this patient.

FAMILY WAITING ROOM

SURGERY STATUS INFORMATION
SURGERY IN PROGRESS

Yes. Hello, sir.

Dr. Chae,
you're still at the hospital, right?

Yes.

He didn't make it.

Kim Dong-hyeok's surgery didn't go well?

What are you talking about?
The chairman passed away.

I see.

His funeral will take place in Room 201.
You head over there first.

I came home to get changed.
I'll be there shortly.

Yes, sir. Will do.

CHAIRMAN AHN BYEONG-U
HAS PASSED AWAY AT THE AGE OF 78.

Hello.

I'm so sorry for your loss, ma'am.

You know
that you were his favorite, right?

Yes, of course.

That's why...

I am completely...

heartbroken for him.

I guess we are not too old for tears.

We seem to meet a lot these days.

Aren't you Jeong-won's best friend
since little?

I thought you knew his family well.

Yes.

-You knew who he was, right?
-Yes.

-Why didn't you tell us?
-You didn't ask.

You knew Jeong-won's family was loaded.

I had no idea they were this rich.

Actually, I thought
his family went broke these days.

He's been mooching off me for years now.

Seriously. Rich people are stingier.

How could he keep it a secret
for 20 years?

So what if we knew?
Would we ask for jobs or money?

-That's possible.
-That's possible.

That's why that jerk didn't tell us.

Why isn't Ik-jun here?

He's still in surgery.
He's probably finishing up now.

It's a difficult one.
It'll take him some time.

What do you mean?
Why would he do surgery here?

Things just happened that way.
We needed him to do surgery.

-He knew about this.
-No, he didn't.

Wait. The director is here.

-Hello, sir.
-What brings you here?

Say hello. He had been
a student of mine long ago.

-I see. Hello.
-Hello, ma'am.

Do you know the chairman's son,
Professor Ahn?

Yes. He's my closest friend.

-Thanks for coming.
-No need to thank us.

We ought to come
to our friend's father's funeral.

Is the chairman your father?

Why didn't you tell us?
You thought we'd ask for money?

I just couldn't find the right time
to tell you guys. I'm sorry.

I didn't try to hide it from you.

I mean, there's nothing to tell you.
I don't have any money. I swear.

That's more annoying.

What about the hospital?
Will you take charge of the hospital?

The hospital?

I thought I lost my unborn child.

-My heart almost exploded.
-We all know you're a doctor.

-Why that ringtone?
-Well...

Heart explosion sounds scary.
How can you say that so casually?

Do you know how sad it is to lose
an unborn child? How can you say that?

You know what?

You don't have any paternal love.

Hey, guys. Stop arguing.
My head is about to crack.

Your head is about to crack?
Then, you'll die.

Jeong-won.

Uncle is here.

He's here?

Thank you for coming, guys.

Please take care of my brother, Jeong-won.

I called you multiple times.
Why didn't you answer?

Sorry. I set my phone to vibrate.

-Dr. Chae, I have the result.
-Okay.

Thanks.

Hey, Ik-jun.

All right. I'll be there soon.

-Did the surgery go well?
-Yes.

Tell him to come here right away.

I need to do something. I'll be back soon.

-Okay.
-Sure.

You were the one who did the surgery.

You should tell her.

Looking like this? Forget it.

If she sees me,
she'd lose all of her confidence in me.

Gosh.

I thought about asking the resident
to inform his mother.

But I thought hearing it from you
would be better. You should go now.

She must've waited for long.

Okay.

Ma'am.

Goodness.

His surgery went really well.

It was a difficult one.

But there's almost no bleeding now,

and the liver he received
seems very healthy.

Right now, he's transferred to the ICU.

Thank you.

Oh, my. I mean it.

Thank you so much.

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

And I have your mother's biopsy result.

It's only stage one cancer.

With the radiation treatment,
she'll be healthy for another ten years.

This is good news. Why are you crying?

My goodness.

Doctor.

Thank you so much.

Thank you for everything.
Thank you so much.

Doctor.

I am the luckiest woman in this world.

There's no other woman
who's as lucky as I am.

I am such a lucky person.

I am the happiest person in the world.

That's why I was able to meet
a nice doctor like you

and my mother will live now.

How can I not call myself lucky?

My goodness. Oh, my.

Doctor...

OUR CONDOLENCES TO YOU

Why on earth would he come here?

He must be out of his mind.

CHAIRMAN AHN BYEONG-U

Mom, should I put
our family photo in the box, too?

Put it in my bag over there.

This is a lot of money for a medical bill.

It's a VIP ward.

Your father is a VIP, you know.

Is the funeral service fee included?

No, that's only for the room.

They completely overcharged us.

The bill is over ten million won
for less than a week?

You're being absurd.

Compared to other hospitals,
our bill is considered not much.

The cost isn't important
to these VIP patients.

Even if it means they must pay
triple or quadruple the price,

as long as they can become healthy,

they would even pay tenfold.

Mom, do you have money for this?

Are you serious?

You might've forgotten it,
but I married for convenience.

It was a loveless marriage,
but I was happy in my own way.

Mom.

-What?
-Don't worry. It's nothing.

Mr. Ju is here.

Okay. I'll be there.

Gosh, Mom.

Seriously.

My brother agreed.

And I persuaded my mother, too.

Ma'am, you're coming
to the board meeting tomorrow, right?

No, I'm not.

Jeong-won will be disappointed.

I know how hard you have been working
all these years.

I am sorry.

I hope I can continue to count on you.

Goodness.

Your family is definitely not ordinary.

So this is already a done deal.

Yes. It's over.

Did Chairman Hwang agree to that?

Jeong-won went to him
and personally asked him

to choose Mr. Ju over himself.

I told him to call Chairman Hwang to get
him on his side. Gosh, I raised him wrong.

All of my effort to raise my children
went to nothing.

I understand.

But tomorrow is the board meeting.

How can I trust you?

I have the agreement letters Chairman
Hwang got from the board of directors.

And I put in my mother
and my resignation letters as well.

But...

I have one condition.

YULJE FOUNDATION

THE PROFIT FROM THE VIP WARDS
WILL GO TO PARTY A

PARTY A HAS THE RIGHTS
TO USE AND MANAGE THE FUND

If you don't mind,

can I ask you about
how you will use the money?

I'm still a guy from a rich family.

Everyone puts away some money.

The concept of VIP wards is
fascinating, isn't it?

There are only four wards.

But we don't need more than those.

The moment they become accessible,
no one will want them.

We must set an astronomical price

to attract astronomically rich patients.

We just need to focus on
is staffing talented doctors.

By the way, finding a good professor
will be difficult.

I heard that our hospital
needs more professors.

I'll take care of that.

Please prepare to pay handsomely
for their salaries.

EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT
AS EXCLUSIVE MEDICAL STAFF FOR VIP WARDS

You'll do it, right?

This is a long contract.

Can someone explain what it means?

To sum it up,

if Party A asks for surgery,

we have to perform emergency surgery
even on weekends.

And we have to participate
in the surgery Party A assigns.

-Who's Party A?
-Him.

It must come with a crazy reward.

-You're asking us to be your slaves.
-Twice the annual salary you get now.

Hey!

Next time,
write that on top of the contract.

He does come from a rich family.
He's very generous.

I won't resign from my job anyway. I'm in.

-Is there an ink pad?
-Here.

I should sign it with my thumbprint.

Hey, what about you?

I want to have more time off.

My goodness,
you sound like you're so well-off.

Hey, you came back to Korea
two months ago after your fellowship.

Shouldn't you get a job?

I want to hang out with my mom more.

Twice your annual salary
and an assigned parking spot.

-What about us?
-What about us?

Hey, be quiet.

I don't know.

On top of that, I'll throw in an exclusive
research lab and your own office.

-What about us? Who do you think we are?
-What? Do you think we're fools?

I don't want those things.

I only have one condition.

What is it? I'll make it work.

A band.

-What?
-What on earth is he jabbering about?

You can barely manage to text.

I won't do it. I said no.

I'm in. I like it.

I'm busy. I don't have time for that.
I can't do it.

Then, will you work here?

Sure. How can you run VIP wards
without an ob-gyn?

I don't think that's possible at all.

Goodness. I'm leaving now.

-Count me out from this.
-Hey.

I'd rather work right now.

-I don't have my ID. Help me go down.
-Okay. Let's go.

My answer was clear.
I don't have time to be in a band.

Hey, Song-hwa. You...

I just need Song-hwa to get on board.

It will be harder to persuade Jun-wan.

Jun-wan?

I can fix that with just a phone call.

You really won't do it?

I said no. I'm way too mature
for that kind of kiddie stuff.

I was going through
my old Cyworld account.

I found a beautiful photo in the album.

-It was in Hawaii.
-I'll do it.

Jun-wan is in.

What?

What on earth do you have on him?

We just need to persuade Song-hwa.

If she says no, she means it.
What should I do?

Hey, do you have anything on her?

My gosh, is that your strategy?

Why are you taking a negative approach
like finding people's weaknesses?

Try to think of what Song-hwa
would want or want to do.

-Take that approach.
-I know a way.

-What?
-What is it?

-She'll do it if she's the vocalist.
-You lunatic.

A vocalist? Is she still hung up on that?

I told her first. She said she'd be in it
if she's the vocalist.

I can't believe this. Song-hwa is
tone-deaf and has no sense of rhythm.

It took her five years to learn
to play the bass guitar.

Seok-hyeong, do you want our band
to win a Grammy Award?

What?

-You don't want to perform at Wembley?
-I don't want to.

Then...

let Song-hwa sing.

Hey.

I don't care.

I just want to do something together
with my friends.

I thought that
Song-hwa had an attractive voice.

My gosh, you're awful.

She has a unique voice.

My goodness. You're all going nuts!

Don't be so mean to her.

You ought to bring her to the right path.

If you care about her,
you can't do this to her.

It's all good now.

Ik-jun, you're truly looking out for her.
Which means you should be okay with this.

We'll start the band.

You're starting work next week.

Nice to meet you, Dr. Yang.

My gosh, it's nice to meet you.

I've heard a lot about you.
People call you "Buddha".

I'm Catholic.

I see.

Hurry up, Song-hwa.
We might get called in any minute.

Gosh.

Gosh, that stinks.

You're ridiculous.

-Which song should we start with?
-Seok-hyeong already picked out a song.

You'll know as soon as you hear it.

I miss you even more around this time

When I am all alone

I know that you are gone now

But I keep thinking of you

Why did you leave me then?

You told me that
Things were getting tough between us

That could have been
The reason you left me

But I can't know for sure

I remember the night when you left me

You in my memory

You really scared me just now.

SEOUL NATIONAL UNIVERSITY
PRE-MED FRESHMEN ORIENTATION

I remember the night when you left me

Give it up for him!

His singing gave me the chills
and his face gave me even more chills.

All right. Who wants to go next?

-Me!
-Give it up for him!

I will impersonate Nam Bo-won
on Nam Bo-won's Show.

It's a mountain valley
in Gangwon Province in 1950.

Frogs were croaking.

-The soldiers were having a rest.
-Hey, where are you going?

I'd rather drop out of college
than do that.

-Hey.
-Hey, Corporal Kim.

Where are you going?

We wanted to use the restroom.

My friend is very drunk.

Hey, are you okay?

Damn it. Why aren't they going back in?
They are so annoying.

It's cold out here.
Should we stay in the restroom?

We'll smell like toilets.

Gosh, is there a place to hide?

Why are they here?

Why do you think?

Like us, when things were getting lame,
they lied to people and came to hide here.

Are they Japanese?

-He's ridiculous.
-My gosh.

Can we come in?

His standard Korean accent is dope.

It's like listening to the radio.

-"Can we come in?"
-"Can we come in?"

Come on in.

Hurry up.

I know there's not much space here.

Staying in here is a much better deal
than putting on a show over there.

My name is An Jeong-won.
His name is Yang Seok-hyeong.

-Nice to meet you.
-My name is Lee Ik-jun.

You crazy punk.

His name is Lee Ik-jun.
My name is Kim Jun-wan.

We're both from Changwon.

We went to the same high school.
Did you two go to school together?

We went to elementary
and middle school together.

-You won't die from it.
-You're such a crybaby.

How long do we need to stay here?
It's too cramped here.

At least it's just the four of us.

I'm An Jeong-won. He's Yang Seok-hyeong.
They're Kim Jun-wan and Lee Ik-jun.

My name is Chae Song-hwa.

Are you guys friends?

-No, we are not.
-Are you crazy?

-We met five minutes ago.
-What?

No, we are not.

You can just say no. What's all this fuss?

Hey, it's a fun coincidence
that we all met here.

Do you want to take a photo together?

Are you for real?

I'm for real.

Sure.

We can get the chair
and put the camera on top.

Okay.

Hold on.

It will blink before taking the photo.

Hey, it's starting.

We're playing
"Love over a Thousand Years" next.

-You jerk.
-Hey.

-Hey!
-Yes?

-This is Chae Song-hwa. Go on.
-Hey, Jun-wan!

-I got it.
-Crazy jerk.

-Bring it back. Hey.
-Okay.

Open up. Hey. Damn it.

Hey, Seok-hyeong.

Hey, Jeong-won.

Damn it. Come on, give it back!

Let me see.

Here it is.

HELLO, MR. DADDY-LONG-LEGS.
EUN-A WAS DISCHARGED AS HEALTHY GIRL.

THANK YOU FOR THE MESSAGE.
I'LL BE ABLE TO HELP MORE PATIENTS.

Hey.

I don't have any money.

I barely got enough money to cover
the bills for a kid with heart disease.

I'm completely broke.

You're a priest.
Why do you always ask for wine?

-Have a life of non-possession!
-Hey, Jun-wan!

-You should be happy if you are
-Open up!

-as respected as Bopjong.
-Hey, even you?

-Seriously?
-Whatever. I don't have money.

You're a priest, not a sommelier.

How did you...

Mr. Ju heard
about his wife's condition today.

He would do anything
for his wife, you know.

I'm very sorry for him.

What do you mean?

Jong-su is already having a hard time.
I made him run the foundation.

I don't know if I can face him.

Jong-su is Mr. Ju's first name.

-I see.
-We're old friends.

I told him not to come to my husband's
funeral since his wife is sick.

No one can stop that stubborn man.

Mr. Ju wouldn't be himself if he didn't.

Goodness.

He was always quiet
and didn't express any emotions.

To be honest, I just thought that
I could never read his mind.

So I was always cautious around him.

-But it turns out--
-He just doesn't have any schemes.

Gosh.

He was just like that
when he was five years old.

And even on his wedding day.

He looks sulky so people get
the wrong idea that he's hiding something.

-He doesn't have any ulterior motives.
-Right.

That reminds me. About two days
before your husband passed away,

he came to see me at my house.

He came to my house at a late hour.

I just assumed that he came to ask me
to vote for him at the board meeting.

Well, I was irritated
that he came to see me.

But since your son asked me for a favor,

-I thought I'd give him what he wants.
-What did he say?

Goodness.

I think I already know.

Yes.

He didn't say anything to me.

He stared at the flower tree
in my garden for a long time.

Then he asked me for the tree
because his wife likes flowers.

He can never ask for favors.

He's frustrating.

That fool.

Gosh.

Goodness, it's already past 8 p.m.

You should go now.

I think he's waiting for you.

He asked me to cook for him.

It's been 30 years
since I last packed a dinner.

-Bye.
-Bye.

Code Blue, third floor.

CPR in the ICU.

Third floor of the main building.

Min-yeong, hang in there.

Hang in there, Min-yeong.

-How long?
-Ten minutes. I can't get her sinus back.

No way. Please do it one more time.

You brought her back last time!

Ma'am, you should let Min-yeong go now...

Just try it one more time, please. Please.

I'll do it. I'll keep trying.

Min-yeong.

Min-yeong.

Min-yeong, hang in there, please.

Hang in there, Min-yeong.

Min-yeong.

Min-yeong, please.
Hang in there. Min-yeong!

Ma'am, she must be in a lot of pain.

We should let her rest now.

My sweet Min-yeong,

do you want to go now?

But I don't want you to.

If you stay here a little longer,

would that be too painful for you?

I would like to see you a bit more.

I'm sorry, Min-yeong.

I am so sorry
for making you go through this pain.

Min-yeong.

I love you so much.

My daughter.

I love you.

March 26, 2019. At 2:29 p.m.

I pronounce Kim Min-yeong dead.

Min-yeong.

Min-yeong.

Min-yeong.

Min-yeong.

Did she want to see all of us?

I bet she'll just complain.

You're right. Her face changed completely.

What choice do we have?

Whatever she says,
we should try to understand her.

I can understand her.

I understand her, but we did our best.

Professor Ahn didn't get a day off
for three months because of Min-yeong.

There he comes.

Thank you so much for your hard work.

You should get back to work.

-Pardon?
-I can meet with her alone.

You should go.

You have a lot of work.

Doctor.

Thank you so much for everything.

Min-yeong...

was in so much pain
because I wanted to see her more.

But thanks to great doctors
and nurses she had,

she had three years of a happy life.

Thank you for your hard work.

Thank you for loving my daughter

and treating her

the best you could.

Thank you so much.

Father, a girl went to heaven today.

I was at her 100th-day celebration.

Every year, we celebrated her birthday
together. We made so many memories.

Just three years...

After only three years,

Min-yeong left this world.

I'm his child,

but I can't stop resenting God.

I hate him.

And I resent him, too.

It's so hard to move on
with my life, Father.

What should I do?

TO THE FRIED CHICKEN RESTAURANT
ON THE POLICE STATION ALLEY

That's why I told you
I wasn't going to be a doctor.

I told you I was going
to be a priest, too, didn't I?

Remember what you guys told me?

That I could be a priest
whenever I wanted,

but that's not the case for a doctor.

I worked all these years as a doctor
because of you guys.

Starting now, I'm going to do
what I want with my life. Okay?

Did you get that?

I don't...

deserve to be a doctor.

I can't...

I can't control my emotions.

I empathize too easily.

Other doctors tell me

that once time passes,
it becomes like nothing.

You know what?

I care too much about all my patients.

I completely go nuts for them, you know?

I didn't cry
even when our father passed away.

My father recently passed away, you know.

Is that so?

But...

when Min-yeong's mother

thanked me...

for treating her today.

Damn it.

My patient's mother comforted me.
But I'm the doctor!

But then,

to tell you the truth,

it was the most wonderful feeling...

It was a kind of feeling

that I couldn't experience in this world.

I was so grateful,
but I was sorry at the same time.

Anyway,

I don't deserve to be a doctor.

No. It's too hard.

I won't do it. I'll quit being a doctor!

As a matter of fact,
I was going to quit after this year.

I was planning to hand off
things I do to my friend anyway.

It's over now.

I'll quit my job tomorrow. Damn it.

Andrea, if that's how you feel,

I'll tell you to quit later.

So why don't you hang in there
one more year?

Seriously.

1 YEAR AGO

Hey, Min-u...

Min-u...

wrote me a letter.

He couldn't even read Korean.

But he wrote me a letter before he died.

I...

don't deserve to be a doctor.

I'm not good enough
and I've got nothing to show for!

I'm going to quit being a doctor.

I'm going to quit tomorrow!

Andrea.

Hang in there for one more year.

Seriously.

2 YEARS AGO

You know, my patient, Min-ji?

Min-ji woke up today.

She was even able to breathe on her own.

She looked at me
and winked at me like this.

Just like this.

She looked at me and winked at me.

Okay. Cheers.

It's the happiest day of my life. Cheers!

Cheers!

3 YEARS AGO

I'm going to quit.

I'm not a doctor.

I'm a fraud!

Die! I should die!

Andrea.

Let's try this for one more year. Okay?

My gosh, how adorable.

Yes, come in.

What's a good menu in the cafeteria?

-Look at you. You came to work early.
-I didn't go home last night.

I'll have breakfast before I go.

Should you drive after an all-nighter?

I'll grab a cab. Bye.

Do you have a symposium this weekend?
Was it at J Hotel?

How do you know about it?

Right. Professor Jang?

I'll send him your regards. I'm leaving.

Bye.

Hey.

Get off now.

Listen to me.

I'm sober now. I swear.

I'm completely sober.

Are you kidding me?

-I smell alcohol whenever you talk.
-No way. It's been hours.

I just smell like alcohol.

When we talked on the phone earlier,
you were still drinking at the wrap party.

That was five hours ago.
You were totally drunk then.

-This is a crime.
-I'm completely fine now.

Forget it. Let's just go.

No one will know anyway.
What's your problem?

Do you see the sauna over there?
Get some sleep there.

That's enough.

Stop making a big deal out of nothing!

I'll drop off your car at your house.
Let's talk later.

And we should...

end it then.

SYMPOSIUM FOR CARDIOTHORACIC SURGERY

The doors are opening.

Her nickname is "ghost."
She teaches and does surgery.

She helps write a thesis. Then she goes
hiking and camping on weekends.

She's never late for work though.
Only ghosts can do that.

I knew it was you. You're famous.
Your name is on the Internet.

Gosh, Chae Song-hwa. She's amazing.

Are you going to watch the patient die?

-Hey!
-We can't do that to a patient.

I was told that it's not that serious.
I want that surgery.

Reporters have their eyes on us.

It's a good opportunity for you.

-People are too interested in me.
-I want to die alone.

Can I live until then?

-Iced Americano and...
-One hot cafe latte.

-And mine too.
-Jeong-won, do you know Daddy-Long-Legs?

-What?
-He's quite famous at your last hospital.

You can't trust rich people.
They lie all the time.

Jerk.

This patient will get a liver transplant.

I'm in charge of the liver transplant.
Do you want to be there?

You're all good-looking.
How did nothing happen between you guys?

Why would you do that?

Why disturb the calm water?
