EPISODE 11

Lady, are you okay?

Hey.

Lady.

She doesn't want your help.

Yeon-gyeong!

What?

They're not here, right?

There's no one, right?

It wasn't a hit-and-run, okay?

What...

What is this?

How...

How did this get here?

Did you recover your senses?

Are you okay? Are you hurt?

I am sorry.

But don't worry. We know how to go back.

Let's go.

You should have left me alone.

You should have just left me to die.

What?

What do you mean?

Why would you say that?

Let's go.

When you fall down, it is not a bad idea to rest for a bit.

Let's rest here.

Everything happens so quickly there.

It was hard to get a hold of myself.

But here,

it feels like the time has stopped.

There are no loud noises that numb your ears,

and there is no fine dust

that suffocates you.

This is what the village I grew up in felt like.

There was a well in the middle of the village,

and in the morning, women with buckets met there and spoke to each other.

Next to them,

children would play with water until they got scolded.

Come to think of it, I miss those days

when I would play with my friends

without any worries.

There must be a well somewhere in this village.

I will get some water to quench our thirst. Stay here and rest.

Can you feel the heart

that you fixed for me?

Dad.

Dad.

Dad.

Dad.

Dad.

Why did this come back here?

How am I back in Joseon?

Do I...

need to thank you for saving my life?

Or should I resent you

for not letting me go?

Eat this.

Lady!

Where did you get that rice ball?

You should drink this first. You'll feel better.

This is normally what women do for a passersby.

I put it there so that you would not get an upset stomach after drinking.

Just like that,

we need to go slowly so that

we don't get an upset stomach.

Gosh, what are they doing?

Japanese soldiers are coming!

Run!

Run!

We must leave.

Dad.

Dad.

Dad!

Dad!

Who is he?

Well, he's my grandfather's guest.

I came from far away.

HYEMINSEO ORIENTAL MEDICINE CLINIC

Is that what happened?

Back then,

I thought it was better for her to have lost her memory.

It must have come back.

I will go and see her.

Do not worry.

Why aren't any of them calling me?

I was told that Heo Bong-tak was your guest.

Who is he? You know him, right?

Why are you asking me such a strange question all of a sudden?

He told me he came from far away. Where is that?

Why would you ask me that?

At first, I thought he was just a quack with no medical license.

Later, I thought he was a fraud that my grandfather had helped.

But I thought about it, and there were so many strange things.

Who is he?

Strange things?

What strange things?

Like his name, clothes, and how he talks.

The strangest thing is that he disappeared in front of my eyes.

-That was together with Yeon-gyeong! -What?

He did that again?

Again? Does that mean he did that the last time too?

Mr. Choe, please tell me.

Who is he?

Where did they go and how?

Gosh.

-Mr. Choe. -What?

-Director Choe! -Director Choe.

-What is it? -Are you all right?

It's nothing. I am fine.

My chest felt a little tight.

I must have an upset stomach because of what I ate yesterday.

You should take some medicine. What are you doing? Take him inside.

Okay. Let's go in.

Let's go in.

Why is he here this early?

Why did you come outside in this cold weather?

-Can't you reach her? -No.

-The number you have dialed... -Gosh, she must have been shocked.

She's never done this before.

I know. Yeon-gyeong wouldn't be like this otherwise.

I'm worried.

When someone acts out of character, they've hit rock bottom.

-Hello. -Hello.

How are Ha-ra's parents doing now?

As you can imagine. They're holding on to Ha-ra.

-Dr. Hwang, come in. -Yes, Director Shin.

What happened? Death on the table?

It was too late when they found her. Her heart was already damaged.

Still, Yeon-gyeong tried her best until the last moment.

-Are you sure it's not our fault? -What?

Yes, sure.

The chairman is so mad now.

At this rate, Director Ma will take the lead.

I think we need to use that card now.

-What kind of a card do you mean? -You know what it is.

The medical record of Chairman Park's son.

Right.

But he entered here voluntarily as Yeon-gyeong's patient.

I also heard he turned himself in for using drugs.

What's wrong with Dr. Choe all the time?

Why is she so fickle? Is she playing a game with me?

Where is she now?

Look over there. The kids are hiding there.

I will go.

I will go and bring the children. Stay here.

This way.

Don't worry. I am here to save you.

We don't have time. Hurry.

Let's go with him.

Hey.

Damn it.

-Follow them! -Yes, sir.

Hey!

-Stop! -Stop!

Hey!

Hold my hand now.

What about these kids?

Can they go with us?

We can't leave them here.

What are these people?

Hey, you two.

Are you from Joseon?

You are.

Kill them.

Stop!

I'd like to

sincerely thank you both.

I told you not to break away from the camp.

Loot the Joseon villages is at each platoon's discretion, isn't it?

He is a doctor.

Bring him, and let him treat Suzuki.

How do you know that, General?

When I got hurt before,

he treated me.

Which is more important to us?

Killing one more person from Joseon or saving one more person from our comrade?

You're right. Instead of being killed right now,

being killed after treating a Japanese soldier

will be an honor to a man of Joseon.

Bring the woman and children as hostages.

Lock up the woman and children. Take that man to the quarter.

-Yes, sir! -Yes, sir!

Let me go. What are you doing?

Let go of me.

Hey, stop this.

Lady!

Hold on! Where are you taking the woman and children?

It will be all right.

Yeon-gyeong! Wait!

Let me stay with her and the children.

Hey!

Brother!

Wait. No!

Let go!

Let me go.

Walk straight. Move!

Let go of me!

Excuse me.

I should have left you

to die then.

How can you bite the hand that fed you?

Did you forget she saved your life?

You made the choice at that time.

The tables have turned now.

You must save this patient.

Do you think I would make the same mistake again?

If innocent people lose their lives from someone I saved,

it's the same as if I killed those innocent people.

I won't make that mistake again!

This is what that woman said.

How someone lives after she saves him is up to him.

That she is just...

trying her best as a doctor.

Finding out the result of her deed,

she must be devastated now.

That is her business.

If you cannot save this patient,

you, that woman, and the children will all die.

A doctor's duty and goodwill

could cause more harm at times.

He was right.

Does it hurt?

You got hurt.

I don't have my bag now.

There is nothing I can do for you.

I can help you.

Brother.

I am scared. Are we...

going to die?

No.

I won't let them kill us.

Your mom and dad must be worried.

We do not have parents.

Due to an epidemic from last year,

they passed away.

I will

protect my sister.

Did you hear what the man said earlier?

Do not worry.

That man will save us.

That is not how it should be.

Promise that you will let the woman and children live.

Then I will save the patient.

Are you that confident?

Promise.

Can you trust my words?

I will trust the words of the one the woman saved.

The ascites seem serious.

In this condition, the slightest mistake can be critical.

Are you saying you cannot save him?

His pulse

is irregular.

If you do anything rashly,

I will not forgive you.

Why are you not taking out all the water?

The patient will die if I take it all out now.

That is why I left some on purpose.

Feed him ground radish seeds,

angelica gigas, Chinese pepper seeds, and rhubarb.

He will get better little by little after three days.

General.

Can you hear me?

You will be okay now.

General.

Come out.

Come on!

Brother!

-No! -Let go of me.

-Shut up. -Shut up!

Seol!

Where are you taking us?

Let go!

Go.

Are you okay?

What about you? Are you okay?

I am all right.

How about you two? Are you okay?

Yes.

I will not thank you for keeping your word.

Thank you

for saving Suzuki.

Are there a lot of doctors like you

in Joseon?

Why do you ask such a thing?

They would need

a lot of doctors at a time like this.

Oh, right.

I did not know why,

but I thought I should not reveal

this object or its owner.

Was I right?

I'm not sure which infirmary you work for,

but this belongs to you.

So I shall return this to you.

What is your name?

My name is Sayaka.

HE WAS NATURALIZED IN JOSEON DURING THE JAPANESE INVASIONS OF KOREA

Will you remember my name?

Are we going home now?

Yes, he saved us.

You can walk home, right?

Yes, I can.

Let's go.

What happened?

Did you save that patient?

He would have released us

even if I could not save him.

It looks like

you saved all of our lives.

My shoe.

I will pick it up for you. Stay here.

What happened?

What do you think you are doing?

I cannot stop you from releasing them since you're my superior,

but it is up to me whether to kill

those released Joseon people or not.

Nakamura!

We need to hurry. Hurry.

Let's go.

Excuse me. Here!

Wait a minute.

A child is hurt.

There is no time to waste.

I am begging you. Please help us.

Be careful.

Hayumaek. It is the most dangerous state of pulse.

What on earth is this wound?

It's from a bullet.

A small piece of metal is stuck in his body.

If we leave it, the wounds will fester, rot, and could develop into septicemia.

What is wrong with you?

I can't do this.

What do you mean?

What if he also dies

after I treat him?

Look at me.

Come to your senses, and listen to me!

You are a doctor.

You do your best to save a patient, whoever that patient is.

You are the best doctor I know.

I do not know what a gun is.

I never treated nor ever seen a wound like this.

I cannot do this by myself.

The only person who can save this child

is you.

Brother,

do not die.

Brother.

Brother.

Dad.

Dad.

Brother.

I don't have my bag with me. I need to disinfect...

and anesthetize.

Do you have any acid?

We do not have acid,

but we have some toad secretion.

Please give us that. We also need hot water to disinfect.

Please boil water with salt.

Yes.

I will apply acupuncture to decrease the pain.

Do you need anything else?

I must stop the bleeding and treat the infection.

Do you have dried crown daisy, elm bark, and taro?

Yes, we have.

Okay.

We also need a clean white cloth, a needle, and some thread.

Thread?

-Do you have hemp yarn and morus bark? -Yes.

The pulse is stable. I think he is out of danger.

You saved this child.

No.

This child

saved her brother.

I thought I could never hold it in my hands again.

Maybe that is why it remained here.

It is smart and praiseworthy just like its owner.

It's amazing

that I did surgery with only this

in a place like this

and saved a life.

Like you said,

the child's strong will to save his sister

must have saved his own life.

What's more important than a doctor's skill

is the patient's will to live.

That is the first thing I learned from my teacher.

You must study the patient's mind first

to heighten their life force and healing power.

The patient's mind.

But,

there is something he did not teach me.

That there are more patients

you cannot save

than patients you can save as a doctor.

That is the fate of doctors

who are living in this land.

I cried out loud for an entire day

when I first lost a patient.

I couldn't even cry later.

Although death is sad,

it is beyond our control who lives or dies.

We only do our best to stop people from dying.

Ha-ra and your father

must have

done their best until the end

because they knew how you felt.

This is the gift she left for you.

She wanted me to tell you

that this brightest one is her heart.

Although her heart stopped beating,

her soul that was contained in her heart

still shines brightly like this.

Everything will be fine, right?

My daughter will be safe, right?

I know

it's shameless of me to say this,

but if you happen to run into her,

please take good care of her like last time.

I know you're in an awkward situation,

but please give me a few more days.

Something came up with Dr. Heo.

How could you say that? I'm not your subordinate!

This isn't only for my sake.

Director Ma, did you just yell at me?

I buttered him up a bit, and now, he thinks he's the president or something.

Goodness.

Heo Im, that punk. I turned him into a human being,

and he's behaving as he pleases.

Where on earth is he?

Did he go back to Joseon by any chance?

Where did you say he went?

You just said

Heo Im, didn't you?

How long have you been standing there?

Joseon? What was that about?

You heard it wrong.

-Grandpa. -I said you heard it wrong.

Things are complicated as is.

Don't add up to it.

SPECIALIST HEO BONG-TAK

Excuse me.

The woman you were with just now.

Did she go somewhere?

My name is Im

from the Heo family.

In the Joseon Dynasty, our acupuncture skills were the best

compared to China and Japan.

The doctor at the top

was Dr. Heo Im,

the best acupuncturist in Joseon.

It doesn't make sense. He's Heo Im?

Then does it mean

the two are in Joseon now?

Are you okay? Are you awake?

How is your back? Does it hurt a lot?

Where is my sister?

She's sleeping behind you.

Brother.

I am sorry.

Because of me...

You...

It is all right, Dam.

It is not your fault.

Do not cry.

My...

My shoe came off.

That is why you...

I will buy you shoes that fit you well next time.

So do not cry.

Look at you.

Hey.

-I'll play with his hair too. -Why are you staring at me?

-I don't look good in these, do I? -That is not true.

You are pretty whichever clothes you wear.

Walking like this together, it seems like

we are a family. Goodness.

What?

I'm too young to have big kids like them.

Gosh, I mean,

in Joseon, people get married at 15 years old.

People of our age have kids this big.

Then why did you not get married

until now?

I had so many women who went after me, but I was busy treating people

with my extraordinary medical skills.

So I didn't get a chance to find someone.

-That's the same as me. -The same...

Then we must be meant for each other.

Shall we get some rest?

Don't your shoulders hurt?

Come to think of it, they hurt.

Let's rest here for a while.

It tickles.

A little more.

Yes. Yeon-gyeong, look here!

Everything that grows on the ground is nutritious.

You need to eat the most important part.

Like this.

-It's okay to eat that? -Yes.

You should eat this too.

Do you want flowers too?

Excuse me.

Are you all right?

What happened?

As you can see, the Japanese soldiers have come.

Everyone got hurt.

But,

who are you?

Well, I...

Mister.

Kang? Is that you, Kang?

Gosh, Dam is here too!

The children are alive!

Mister.

Are you all right?

Mister.

I sewed up the skin so that the wound would heal quickly.

It will disappear after a while.

Really?

-You sewed it up? -Yes.

I have never seen a doctor treating patients before.

Are you a female physician?

-Yes. -I see.

When I first arrived in your world,

I was surprised by the ambulance and the hospital.

Because people from that world

could get treated whenever and wherever they are.

Yes,

for most people.

Those people outside

would hardly ever get to see a doctor in their lives.

At least in Hanyang, they have Hyeminseo.

I just used acupuncture and moxa to circulate chi.

That way, they can at least get on with life and eat something.

It is frustrating,

but that is all we can do.

Why are you looking at me like that?

I want to remember

the real side of you.

I just did it because there were patients in front of me.

That is what I did.

Then tell me.

Why are you

treating these people for nothing in return

and worrying about them?

Dam.

Gosh, why is she suddenly like this?

She must be in shock.

It is all right now.

Child,

it is all right.

We will have a chance to talk about our connection when the time comes.

If my prediction is right.

Here.

Is Hanyang far away from here?

Why do you ask?

There is someone I need to meet.

Who is that?

Heo Jun.

No,

I mean, Lord Heo Jun.

Heo Jun? Do you mean the doctor?

How do you know Master Heo?

That's what I want to find out.

What does that mean?

I will tell you more about it later.

I am not sure about anything yet.

The Japanese soldiers are nearby.

You know it's dangerous to be in Hanyang now?

I know. But,

if I don't see him now,

I might not get another chance.

Maybe,

I might find out

the reason why I met you

and why I came here.

I went through so much trouble,

but at least it did not last long.

This is all thanks to you, my lady.

If I leave Hanyang and evacuate,

I do not know when I will return.

I do not get to see you in the end.

I hope you survive this war

so that we can meet in the future.

-Let us go. -Yes, my lord.

What is that?

Excuse me.

Where is the place that's on fire?

You did not know that?

-It's the palace. -Why is the palace on fire?

Didn't you hear that the King ran away this morning?

So the angry people are setting everything on fire.

He deserves to be ripped to pieces.

How could he run away? I cannot believe this.

Even if you do not get to meet him,

do not be discouraged.

He is the royal physician.

If His Majesty is on a royal flight, Master Heo might have followed him.

Okay, let us go.

Who are you?

Dr. Heo!

-Dr. Heo, I was worried. -Oh, my.

It was true that you'd come here.

Mak-gae, wait.

Goodness, Mak-gae.

You changed your appearance to hide from the Minister of War?

What could I do?

After we ran away last time, he is doing everything to find you and me.

You are being chased again.

That is not important.

What happened?

What did I see that day?

Why are you still here anyway? Did I not tell you to leave Hanyang?

How could I leave without you?

We are all in this together, live or die.

Do you not know what times we are in?

I do not know about that.

She is here again.

But you look like a village woman this time instead of a noble lady.

I am here to meet Lord Heo Jun.

He went to a village over the mountain to treat a patient.

Do you mean that he did not follow the king?

I heard he said that he can't go right now

because his leg was hurting, and that he'd meet them later.

He went to treat other patients after that?

When will he return?

He won't be back today. Maybe tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.

Do you know where he is?

The roads are rugged. Be careful.

I wanted to know since last time,

but what kind of relationship do you have with each other?

Why are you staying at Master Heo's house?

You did not answer my question.

I had to leave Hyeminseo, so I did not know what to do.

Lord Heo told me to stay until you got back.

Did he say I would come back?

Yes, he said you would surely come back.

Judging by your hair, you must not have returned voluntarily.

You must have caused other trouble.

He thinks I will come back voluntarily.

Gosh.

Look who we have here.

Isn't that the woman from last time?

Yes, I think you are right.

Wait.

Look.

I think those are warriors judging from their swords.

Warriors?

What on earth is happening?

You scum.

It is good to see you like this again.

That girl helped Heo Im run away.

He even had a girl.

They must not recognize you.

Run away without looking back. Now.

I cannot do that without you.

Did you not see last time?

You have to leave for us to live. Hurry.

-Who is that girl? -Should I follow her?

That is unnecessary.

Heo Im, you punk!

I cannot sleep at night because of you.

The almighty must be helping me.

Who knew that we would put an end to this on our way out of Hanyang?

I see you became a dog while I was away.

What?

What did you say?

You punk!

How could you tell between humans and dogs according to the clothes they're wearing?

The way you are behaving is like that of dogs and pigs right now.

Gosh.

Dogs and pigs would be offended.

How dare you run your mouth like that?

I guess you are afraid of the people.

I take it that it is because you value your life so much

to run away

in the middle of the night like this.

You punk.

How could a lowlife like you disrespect me?

As a minister of the court, you should protect

the people and the king, especially in crisis!

I cannot believe that a vulgar man like you,

who betrayed the king and left the people to save his own life,

is still talking about social ranks.

Are you not embarrassed to face the lowlifes?

You little...

What are you doing?

Make him shut his mouth!

Yes, my lord.

Do not worry.

Pain like this is nothing to me now.

Lady Yeon-gyeong.
