Original subtitles

How did you know that I came from Joseon?

That's not what matters now.

What matters is that you're in a desperate situation.

I will provide everything to support you

so that you can stay here as a doctor.

Why would you do me such a favor?

You told me yourself before.

To recognize people's talents

and recruit them to proper positions

is a virtue of someone with high status.

I usually seize an opportunity and don't miss it

when it comes into view.

How about you?

I appreciate that you took me under your wing.

I will not forget what you've done for me.

There is a path ahead of me.

I will take this path that I wasn't able to take when I was there.

I will become a doctor who becomes happy

when he saves lives,

and glad when he heals people.

Dr. Heo Bong-tak

graduated from Myeongin Oriental Medical College with honors.

After he finished his residency training at that hospital,

he's been all over the world

and gained a lot of clinical experience.

He's a very competent doctor.

I guess you already know Dr. Heo, Secretary Jo.

Do you remember me?

-I'm not sure. -The other day,

when you came to our hospital and collapsed,

Dr. Heo was here to see me.

He happened to look at your complexion,

and found out your disease.

It was an emergency and each minute mattered,

so I applied acupuncture without your consent.

I apologize.

-You were the one from the other day. -Right.

Before a cardiothoracic doctor performed CPR on you,

he took emergency measures with acupuncture.

Isn't that true, Dr. Choe?

That's true.

I didn't know that.

I owe you big-time, Dr. Heo.

-Thank you so much. -You are welcome.

I appreciate that.

You must be happy

to have such a competent doctor at your hospital.

Thank you.

With Dr. Yoo, I will do my best in leading the acupuncture...

-VIP. -And the VIP ward.

I hope you can help me a lot.

-Sure. -Yes.

-See you later. -Sure.

I'll see you again.

Heo Bong-tak.

How have you been, Yeon-gyeong?

I wouldn't have recognized you if I ran into you outside.

It is my first day, so I paid special attention to how I look.

-You paid special attention? -Do I sound awkward?

I practiced a lot.

You don't have to act in front of me.

Okay.

I cringed myself there anyway.

-Goodness! -What happened?

What happened to you while you were gone?

As you can see,

I have been quite busy.

I had no idea, and...

How did you get a job here?

They say faith will move mountains.

Maybe my faith moved the deity.

Director Ma gave me an opportunity.

Does he know that you're from Joseon too?

He just recruited a talented person.

Does that mean that you deceived even him?

Come on.

What's the reason?

Why did you have to go that far to get a job in this hospital?

HEO BONG-TAK THE ASSOCIATION OF KOREAN MEDICINE

What is this?

Where did you get this?

Director Ma gave it to me.

I wonder why they decide

a doctor's qualification with such a small token.

He said this is exactly what I need now.

What is he thinking?

Do you have any idea what that is?

It's illegal to give it to you like that!

I heard this is given by the government.

I thought they gave it as they know I am competent.

Do you think I am not qualified?

That's not what I'm talking about.

Do you still want me...

to go back to Joseon?

I decided to live here as a doctor.

To achieve that goal,

this is the only way for me.

If I still irritate you,

I will try my best not to get in your way.

I wonder whether she still suffers from that symptom.

She looks so pale.

Goodness.

What happened?

Why didn't you tell me earlier?

Didn't I tell you?

I recruited him as he seemed to be a competent doctor we need here.

He is suspicious in many aspects.

Remember what happened at Shinhye Hospital?

That's right.

Since you saw that footage too, you must know how competent he is.

It was just a coincidence.

No way. A coincidence cannot save a life.

We'll see.

He'll be a huge help in settling down our VIP ward.

Am I...

not good enough to do that?

He's the kind of person you need.

If he doesn't seem to be competent, we can kick him out anytime.

If you don't think I'm competent,

you would kick me out anytime,

just like you did to my dad.

Please find out information on Heo Bong-tak.

You don't look like you're from the event company.

What is that... event-something?

Do you have a license?

What is that?

A special bean latte, please.

A cold one, please.

Heo Im?

Dr. Yoo, I am Heo Bong-tak.

You became a different person in a couple of days.

You were Heo Im then,

and now you're Heo Bong-tak.

Who will you be next?

-Is it that important? -What?

I am here as an oriental medical doctor, and I will treat patients.

Who I am will be revealed naturally during this process.

You can fake your position,

but you can't fake your skill.

No matter how high a person's position is,

only skills represent that person.

Skills?

Are you that confident?

-Aren't you confident? -What?

I'm asking you because you always ask me that.

If a doctor doesn't trust himself,

how will patients trust him to treat them?

This coffee tastes amazing.

When you're frustrated and have a bitter taste in your mouth,

drink some cold, sweet coffee.

This coffee tastes amazing.

Heo Bong-tak appeared so suddenly.

Who is he?

He's a skillful doctor that the director scouted himself.

Strong background or skills. Which one will win?

Should we choose to stand behind Dr. Yoo or Dr. Heo?

That is the question.

Pick Dr. Yoo.

-Why? -How could skills win connections?

You're sharp.

What? Is someone coming?

Dr. Heo.

-We meet again. -Yes.

If both arteries have an issue, you should put it on the other side.

I'll show you if I have a chance next time.

I see.

This is diagnostic measurement equipment.

This equipment measures the qi and pulse

to find out one's health condition.

If doctors don't diagnose their patients,

how could they be doctors?

Don't worry. You can maintain your own method.

This is a SSP.

It's an electronic acupuncture machine.

When the patient's afraid of needles,

or when you're in a situation where you can't do acupuncture,

you can use this machine on the patient instead.

It's quite a convenient world since you don't have to wash

-or heat the needles with fire. -Yes.

Practice until you get used to it.

SPECIALIST HEO BONG-TAK

ORIENTAL MEDICINE DOCTOR LICENSE HEO BONG-TAK

ACUPUNCTURE DEPARTMENT HEO BONG-TAK

SHINHYE ORIENTAL CLINIC

Yes, Dr. Heo. What is it?

I will start the treatment.

Send the patient in.

Did something happen to Dr. Choe recently?

It looks like she isn't in good condition.

Why? What? Where?

A paramedic said something strange a few days ago.

That day when Jo Mi-yeong was rushed in,

they said she acted strangely

in front of the man who was in a motorcycle accident.

Really?

Is that why she went to the psychiatry department?

What? The psychiatry department?

She went there because of her friend.

Her friend? Who?

Why? Do you want me to introduce her?

I heard you were dumped by your girlfriend.

Mind your own business.

We're just taking some time apart. You're a two-timer.

And you? You look free right now.

I need to change the dressing of the patient in room 508.

I have so much to do.

Thank you.

Why are you sighing?

I thought I was starting to get to know a person,

but he suddenly showed a different side.

When I think that's his true side,

he suddenly shows another side.

I'm not sure what the true side...

of that person is.

It's been a while.

-Yes? -When you were an intern,

you asked the professors hundreds of questions

You were curious about illnesses, not a person, at that time.

Was I like that?

Why don't you ask questions like at that time to that person?

Yes?

Yes, I'll come right away.

I got a call from the emergency room.

-Slowly. -Oh, my!

-Let's move him. -Oh, my!

EMERGENCY MEDICAL CENTER

Did you also get the call?

What happened?

They stabbed each other. I think he was meant to be stabbed in the heart.

I'll do it.

Blood pressure 80 over 60. The pulse is 120.

The oxygen saturation is 90 to 92 percent.

Secure the peripheral route and give me volume.

Okay.

-Please take a chest X-ray. -Okay.

-How long is it since he was stabbed? -It's been a while.

His wife put pressure on it right away, so he didn't bleed a lot.

-His wife did this? -She was a nursing auxiliary.

Let me take a look.

We don't have time for a CT scan. Let's go to the OR right away.

Yes, sir.

He has a lot of blood pooled in his thoracic cavity.

We can't rule out heart damage either.

I'll open him up right away in the operating room.

Dad!

My head hurts like it will explode,

and it feels like my eyes are going to fall out.

My neck and nose are congested and stuffy,

and my face feels like it's paralyzed.

Let me feel your pulse for a diagnosis.

It is sinusitis.

I have treated this hundreds of times.

It is acute sinusitis.

Yes?

What is that?

A person's face is a cave that has a spirit.

A spirit is a mind like fire,

and a cave cools things.

Those symptoms will appear

when the cave is blocked by a runny nose.

What is he talking about?

Just like how the wind blows and cools you down in a valley,

the hapgok acupuncture point will blow a cool wind to your nose.

Lieque is thunder and lighting.

As the air clears up after thunder and lighting,

lieque will clear up the air the nose breathes.

Yeonghyang means to welcome scent.

It will help the nose smell better.

Sangseong will make your head clear...

by adding starlight to your heart,

just like a night sky full of stars.

-He explains it so well. -What?

Now your nose will feel better when I get rid of the stuffiness

by applying acupuncture inside your nose.

The human body will live when it is open to nature,

and die when it is closed to it.

How does it feel?

Goodness.

My head is clear,

and the stuffiness of my nose is gone.

I'm also seeing better.

Thank you, Doctor.

My nose is bleeding.

Doctor, why is this happening?

Why is this happening?

-This should not happen. -Oh, my.

-I'm bleeding. -Tissue.

-This should not happen. -Help me.

Save me.

Give me some gauze.

Don't tilt your head back. Please bend over.

Don't swallow and spit the blood out of your mouth.

Rest the patient's head at a higher place and apply an ice pack.

How did this happen?

I just did what I always do.

Give me his chart.

LONG-TERM USE OF ASPIRIN

This patient...

has been taking aspirin for a long time.

Aspirin? What is that?

Aspirin is an anticoagulant agent. You can't draw blood like that.

I'm going to pick Dr. Yoo. It looks like he doesn't have good skill.

You don't treat patients with only words.

He's nothing but a big talker.

His fifth and sixth ribs are fractured.

I'll have to open his chest to see the condition of his heart and lungs.

We'll check the condition of the patient with a stab wound.

Scalpel.

What's wrong, Yeon-gyeong?

It's nothing.

His lungs are a little torn, but his pulmonary arteries are okay.

His heart and pericardium are also okay.

He bled a lot because his intercostal arteries are torn.

What? I thought it was really serious.

He was stabbed while the blade was extended,

and the blade got stuck in the ribs.

That's why he wasn't stabbed deeply.

Let's take care of the blood vessels and stitch up the torn arteries.

Let's start with the blood.

Okay. Please give me the hemoclip.

According to the police, he was stabbed by a professional.

-Professional, my foot. He's an amateur. -What about the other person?

They said the patient stabbed the leg to protect himself.

What are you doing?

Are you now trespassing in other people's operating room?

I'm sorry,

but let me take a close look.

What?

Why do you need to see this?

How could this happen?

Can't you tell? It's done by a professional.

He precisely went for the femoral artery.

He also cut the nerves and veins.

I can suture the veins,

but he won't be able to use his legs.

Please give me the irrigation.

We're the police. Did you perform surgery on Jo Sang-hyeok?

How is his condition?

There's no need to ask.

He tried to kill my boss and stabbed him in the heart first.

No, he stabbed my husband in the leg first.

-What? -Wait a minute.

-What... -Please be quiet!

He was in a bar fight with the owner and they brandished knives.

As you can see, the testimony of the witnesses contradict each other.

Jo Sang-hyeok, who I performed surgery on,

had damage in the veins of his wound area and lung tissue.

But there wasn't any damage to his organs.

If he shows satisfactory progress, he will be discharged in a few days.

That's all.

See? She said he did it first.

No, Detective. That's not true.

-What are you talking about? -That's not true.

Dad!

Hey, be quiet.

Be quiet already!

Can't you all be quiet?

She said he did it first.

My boss doesn't lie.

-Dad! -Would you believe this

-if you were... -Dad!

...in this situation?

-Dad! -I said that wasn't it.

Detective,

I'm sure you already know, but if you intend to kill someone,

you stab with a knife horizontally,

so organ damage is severe.

But Jo Sang-hyeok was stabbed vertically.

Normally, in this situation--

Wait a minute.

You're saying that this wound was made accidentally

or to protect himself?

Detective, that's not the case.

Doctor?

Why did you come back and do this?

Her husband was seriously injured by being stabbed in the femoral region.

The doctor who performed the surgery will explain this in detail.

His femoral artery...

was cut precisely.

-Oh, my. -Mom...

In this case,

he could die from hemorrhagic shock.

Mom!

Even if he lives...

it's highly probable that he might not be able to use his legs.

Mom!

What?

So this side stabbed him from a detailed plan,

and the other side was just protecting himself.

Detective, that's not the case.

Doctor, you're causing me a lot of stress.

Hey, stop.

Mom!

Mom!

Honey!

I mean...

-Listen to the doctor. -Excuse me. Hey!

-Honey! -Mom!

Mom!

Mom!

Yeon-gyeong, what is wrong with you these days?

Why do you suddenly meddle in other people's business?

Don't you know who they are?

You're right.

I also think I'm strange these days, Min-jae.

You suffered a lot from the first day.

Forgive...

I'm sorry.

Everyone needs an adaptation period.

Humans can't do everything perfectly from the start.

Everyone makes mistakes.

Consider yourself lucky since it wasn't a VIP patient

but an ordinary patient, and forget about it quickly.

I am still insufficient. I will try harder.

Of course.

That's the Heo Im I know.

-I must go now. -Okay.

Yes, Secretary Jo.

I think we will have to postpone...

the date of the meeting at Chairman Park's house.

There is something...

clearly.

Like his grandson's symposium last time,

and today's opening of the VIP ward.

Why does he keep inviting people from the Blue House?

You're right.

It's not like the Blue House appoints chairmen.

It's the same with Heo Bong-tak.

He planted him in our hospital to cause trouble.

He also invited him just in time when the secretary fainted.

Speaking of which, you should find out what's happening.

Yes, Director Shin.

SHINHYE HOSPITAL

Who are you?

It is me, the grown man.

It is me.

Oh, my goodness!

It is a relief.

It is nice to see you again.

You said you were from Joseon.

You were lying.

I did not lie.

Did I not tell you that Dr. Choe was going to save you?

Anyway,

did you come here empty-handed?

I did not know what I needed to bring.

I will be back soon.

Gosh, wait!

Should I call Dr. Choe?

No, no.

Why not?

That is...

If she sees me right now,

she will get angry or dislike me.

If I still irritate you,

I will try my best not to get in your way.

Did you do something wrong to her?

In fact,

I am a "DL" to Yeon-gyeong.

"DL"?

What is that?

-Dislike. -Gosh!

Do you trust Dr. Choe?

That's why I waited.

She is lucky...

that her patient trusts her.

Why? Did someone say that they can't trust you?

How can a patient trust a doctor

when the doctor cannot trust himself?

I apply acupuncture to save people.

But if I can also hurt people with it...

Why am I telling you this?

Oh, right. I have a cell phone.

It's freaking awesome.

"Freaking awesome"? What does that mean?

I need to get your number.

How do you get my number?

I can get you apples and pears,

but how can you get my number?

There's something like that. Just wait and see.

But at least tell me.

What are you doing here?

It is nothing like that. I was not trying to see you.

Was that the way out?

No.

It's that way.

Isn't he that man?

It's the man who applied acupuncture on Ha-ra.

He looks so much better now.

Was she talking about him earlier?

-Are you-- -Did you--

Are you not going home?

Did you do well today?

You know how good I am.

Word must have spread. So many people came.

I had to apply acupuncture all day.

All of my body hurts.

Goodness.

You should try to do well now you're in there.

What did you just say?

I didn't say anything.

I definitely heard it.

Say that again.

I didn't say anything.

But I heard you say something.

Jae-ha.

-We were going to have dinner today. -Were we?

After what you did today,

I didn't think you'd have time for this.

Shouldn't you go and study?

Or at least repent.

Jae-ha.

You need to come back in later, right?

Let's go. I made a reservation at a nearby restaurant.

All right, let's go.

You should go first.

Wait a moment.

I thought you were an incredible doctor

because you were so confident.

I don't know why Grandfather let you in the hospital,

but you won't last long with your poor skills.

See you tomorrow.

That's if you come to work tomorrow.

What are you worried about?

-What? -Are you worried...

about the patients or your post?

What's up with those two?

What's happening?

If you are worried about the patients, it will not happen again. So don't worry.

I will not forgive a doctor

who hurts his patients even if it is myself.

Is that baseless confidence what you're going for?

If your post is what you're worried about,

you should keep worrying.

I am looking forward to...

what I can show you from now on.

We finally get to have the dinner that you promised since I got here.

It's really hard to have a proper meal with you.

Do you remember when you bought me ramyeon

at a convenience store after getting your first pay

when you were in college?

What were you talking about earlier?

Did something happen in the hospital?

That must be how you earned all your tuition fees

-for medical school. -Jae-ha.

I know he is weird,

but he is not a bad person.

"He is not a bad person"?

Then is he an awful person?

-Jae-ha. -That man drew blood

from a patient taking aspirin and caused a nosebleed.

It's a basic mistake that even interns don't make.

Yet,

he doesn't even know what aspirin is.

So I'm trying to find out

what his real name is and who he really is,

how he got in and what his intentions are.

Why are you trying to find that out?

You must know about him.

I didn't want to ask you this question,

but I need to.

What's your relationship with him?

How much do you know about him?

That's not important.

Why are you so interested in him

when you were only interested in work until now?

I can't do this. Let's go.

Yeon-gyeong.

I'm getting to know...

about him.

What?

I'm getting to know who he is,

what kind of life he has led,

and why he wanted so badly to get into the hospital.

I'm getting to know him.

What it is about him that I have missed?

-I don't get it at all. -What?

How did he get in?

He must have been qualified.

If that's the case, would the director's face look like that?

Heo Bong-tak?

How did he trick them?

I didn't think he was like that.

I know, right?

Jae-suk, we're feeling down, right?

Want to go to the new cart bar and have skewered chicken?

-You're here. -You're here.

Have you finished work?

Yes, where is Grandfather?

He's on the second floor. He'd love to see you.

Yeon-gyeong, did he visit your hospital?

There's a mosquito.

He'd be happy to see you.

He'd be happy to see you.

Let's go.

A mosquito?

SHINHYE ORIENTAL CLINIC VIP WARD OPENS

THE VIP WARD OPENED ON THE 15TH

Heo Im came.

What are you talking about?

Heo Im? Who is that?

Did you see his acupuncture method?

You showed up out of the blue without contacting me once

to talk about that nonsense?

If you're going to keep talking nonsense, you should go.

This time, he came to me first.

So?

What will you do this time?

You've earned enough by using Heo Jun back then.

Do you still want more?

Let's wait and see which choice he makes.

It could be for the best.

He would learn more...

if he's with more people,

rather than being stuck in this small clinic.

-Did you have dinner? -Yes.

I will go to my room.

I let him sleep here since he didn't have anywhere to go. Why are you making a fuss?

The director scolds him frequently, but he seems to have something planned for him.

Do you mind if I try?

Why did you let him in here at first?

How did you know?

What are you talking about? Who?

You took him in knowing that he didn't have a license.

You even took him to Seoul Station and let him apply acupuncture.

Why did you?

I told you I let him sleep here a few nights as he had nowhere to go.

I saw that he had learned a few skills of acupuncture from somewhere

and thought I'd use him as an assistant now that I'm old.

But he doesn't even thank me for letting him sleep here,

and just went away without saying goodbye. How rude.

But why do you ask?

It's nothing.

Why does she...

ask about him all of a sudden?

Did she...

meet him there?

How much do you know about him?

Why are you so interested in him?

He is from Joseon.

He's a doctor from Hyeminseo.

And he did something wrong to the king.

And he ignored the mother of a servant called Du-chil.

I am very curious about you.

I want to know what happened to you yesterday.

I need to examine your pulse that I felt yesterday when you fainted.

After I met him...

I keep remembering strange memories.

I cannot.

I cannot sleep.

You should try to do well now that you're in there.

SHINHYE ORIENTAL CLINIC

Let me examine your pulse.

Are you all right?

I will apply acupuncture. Needles.

Dr. Heo, here are the sterilized cotton balls.

Here is the needle.

Thank you.

I will apply acupuncture.

Dr. Yoo told me not to allow patients to get treated by you for a while.

You must have numb hands.

You have so much heat in your body.

It must be hard to wear socks or shoes?

That's right. How did you know?

Here.

-Take it. -"Heo Bong-tak"?

I think I have an upset stomach.

I had soy sauce marinated crab and frozen persimmon.

These two foods conflict with each other.

It would naturally cause an upset stomach.

It looks like

you are full of anger.

Here. I am Heo Bong-tak.

It looks like your womb has bad blood circulation and discharge.

Yes.

You should apply moxa cautery on your stomach.

Moxa cautery?

It looks like you have a problem with your stomach.

-Is that true? -How can he tell by her face?

-Is that true? -Excuse me. I am sorry.

-How can he tell? -He must be able to see everything.

-I see everything. -Gosh.

I must be disturbing...

other doctors' treatments. I must go inside.

-Gosh. -He's so cool.

-Dr. Heo! -Dr. Heo!

Can I make an appointment with Dr. Heo?

Can I?

Doctor, I want your treatment.

Dr. Heo can't treat anyone today because of what happened yesterday.

I feel so bad for him. He just came.

Why did he make such a simple mistake?

Dr. Choe!

Dr. Choe!

Here, here!

Here!

What are you doing? You shouldn't call out for me so loudly here.

I'm so lucky that I met you here. I wanted to ask you something.

Me too.

I have a lot to ask you as well.

Here.

This medicine called aspirin prevents people

from getting cardiovascular diseases and enables blood circulation.

I thought it was herbal medicine, like a sage plant.

Is it true that it helps with fevers, headaches, and arthritis?

The as...

As...

The as...

Do you not know? What should I do?

I do not have anyone else I can ask.

It's "acetylsalicylic acid," which is the main component of aspirin.

It comes from the bark of willows,

and it's good for fevers and headaches.

Was it from the bark of a willow?

Then what does this mean?

"It helps with platelet aggregation."

It stops the blood from solidifying.

So that's why the patient couldn't stop his nosebleed.

You seem to know everything.

"Aspirin...

cannot be used on people...

who have high blood pressure, diabetes,

and hyperlipidemia,

which causes the hardening of the arteries."

So this...

Dr. Choe, what is "allergy"?

Why did you come here?

Please help me out. I do not have anyone else to ask.

To make it simple,

the membrane of the nose reacts sensitively to certain things.

Dr. Choe, do you know what "athlete's foot" is?

The patient said it was serious.

What are you doing in front of my patient?

Tell him. He says it's serious.

When the airway cannot filter them, they go into the lungs

and cause respiratory diseases.

Was fine particulate matter that dangerous?

-Follow me. -Okay.

ASPIRIN

HA-RA

Straightforward men are considered trendy.

"Straightforward men are considered trendy"?

"Straightforward men"?

STRAIGHTFORWARD MEN?

"Straightforward men"?

A MAN WHO GOES STRAIGHT

"Straightforward men"!

"Straightforward men."

"Straightforward men."

You are my style.

We should...

never see each other again.

Did I bother you that much?

In the hospital.

Try to avoid rough activities even after getting discharged.

Try to get some rest after physical activity.

And you should have low-salt and low-fat meals.

Stop nagging me.

I'm happy to live without your nagging.

Yes, live happily like that.

And don't be sick.

Can you feel my heart...

that you fixed for me?

Your heart feels warm.

I'll go home now.

-Dr. Choe, he's a good man. -What?

You should stop playing games and get serious.

Gosh.

I'm playing games?

With whom?

Doctor.

According to the detective, my husband will be

on probation and be released due to extenuating circumstances.

It's all thanks to you.

Thank you so much.

It's nothing.

The man called Du-ok kept asking him to come and work for him again.

He refused

and he came to our house yesterday.

My husband quit working for him three years ago

and worked hard on his cart bar.

He wanted to be a proud father for our daughter.

SHINHYE ORIENTAL CLINIC

Goodness.

Welcome, Councillor Jung.

We've been waiting for you.

There aren't any reporters. So you don't need to be worried.

Let's go this way.

Gosh.

Councillor Jung, I'll examine a few places.

-If it hurts, please make a sound. -Okay.

Excuse me.

As your bones aren't swollen,

it seems like there aren't any problems with the bones.

There must be a problem with his muscles.

I will apply acupuncture on a few spots, and see what happens.

The liver controls the muscles.

I will apply it on the acupuncture points of the liver, then apply it on your face.

Councillor Jung In-bu came in

as their first VIP patient.

What? Jung In-bu?

Why? What was his problem?

I heard he can't open his mouth.

He made such blunt remarks during the congress

and made people angry whenever he opened his mouth.

He should close his mouth forever.

Wait a moment. Where's his local constituency?

He won four times in Gyeongin.

What?

Gyeongin?

According to the secretaries,

Director Ma has been traveling a lot to Gyeongin lately.

Does that mean he's after...

the Hanshin-dong land?

This man...

is doing business on a large scale.

You!

What is this? He didn't get better.

Did you fail?

You!

What are you going to do?

There's an important meeting at 6 p.m.

He needs to depart an hour from now at the latest.

Director Ma, you can't do this to him.

You!

Let me try.

Dr. Heo,

this isn't the time or place.

I can open his mouth within an hour.

If I fail, I'll leave the hospital.

Dr. Heo seems to be confident.

You should get his treatment.

All right.

I asked you to treat his jaw. What are you doing?

You must worry a lot...

on a daily basis, sir.

What?

He must sigh a lot day and night.

How did you know that?

He sighs all the time.

He looks like he has a temper,

but he cannot let out the anger he has within.

It is not a problem of his muscle,

but a temporary disorder caused by stress.

Stress?

On what grounds did you make that assumption?

He has a red face, and he smells a lot, especially of sweat.

That happens when the heart is heated.

And he has dry lips,

meaning he has a lot of heat, and his heart is beating fast.

These all happen when one is stressed due to overwork,

anxiousness, and tension.

You know this well, do you not, Dr. Yoo?

I will apply acupuncture on him.

Wait a moment.

Watch and learn.

Wait.

The time I have promised is up.

You can open your mouth and talk.

Honey, I want some water.

What? I can talk.

I'm able to talk.

-Oh, my. Honey! -Goodness!

Honey, that's great!

-It's so fortunate! -Congratulations!

It's great.

You went to a lot of trouble.

How did it go? Did you find it out?

There's Heo Bong-tak's name on the list of the association

and Myeongin Oriental Medical College's graduate list.

They match the photo you sent.

Who is that person?

He always came when I was busy.

Why isn't he coming?

It's making me nervous to watch.

Dr. Hwang.

He's young, but he's already trying to rise through the ranks.

What do you mean?

You know Heo Bong-tak, right?

Tell him to be careful.

It seems like Director Ma is planning something big.

He's going to get in trouble by being so greedy.

They might take him down with them.

DR. CHOE, HA-RA

I need to get your number.

How do you get my number?

I can get you apples and pears,

but how can you get my number?

There's something like that. Just wait and see.

DR. CHOE

DIRECTOR MA SEONG-TAE, DR. CHOE, HA-RA

He's going to get in trouble by being so greedy.

They might take him down with them.

YOO JAE-HA, MAN FROM JOSEON

MAN FROM JOSEON

This is my gift.

MAN FROM JOSEON

The receiver is busy. Please leave a message after the beep.

The receiver is busy. Please call later.

The receiver is busy. Please call later.

Who is she on the phone with for so long?

Who does he even have to call?

Dr. Choe, here.

-I did-- -Quit.

What did you just say?

I told you to quit right now.

You're in danger.

Are you still talking about that?

-I told you. I now have a license. -That's not what I'm talking about.

I'm not sure about the details,

but the situation is bad.

So, please...

leave that place.

Do you...

hate me that much?

That's not what I mean.

I wanted to tell you first...

about what I achieved today.

I know. But...

this isn't the right way.

Why do you only tell me things like quit, leave...

and don't do it?

Are you afraid I might do something wrong again?

I wanted to show you how well I am doing

because I know...

how you feel about me.

Can you trust me for once...

and watch?

Look at you two lovebirds.

Looking good.

My boss is about to go to jail,

but the doctor is having a nice date.

What do you want?

Does the patient have a problem?

Are you the guardians of a patient?

Don't worry. Dr. Choe will do a great job taking care of him.

Oh, no.

It seems like your boyfriend doesn't know what's happening right now.

We're planning to teach her some manners.

Why would you do that?

If someone had to do that, it would be me!

No, we're going to do it.

Calm down.

There's an unresolved matter between us.

An unresolved matter?

Who on earth are these people?

They are gangsters.

What are gangsters?

They are wild fellows, in your words.

What should we do?

I should stretch...

after a long time.

Run!

Do you have anything to use as a weapon in your bag?

Why would I have something like that?

Can you fight? Maybe martial arts or fencing?

Are you kidding me?

I asked just in case

since you are impossible to predict.

Watch your hands.

Raise them high.

Are you trying to call the police?

Do not worry. I will protect you.

-That's funny. Are you a comedian? -He's watched too many movies.

Put it down.

What are you doing?

Do you want to die?

TEMPLE

What?

SUPRACLAVICULAR FOSSA

Did you see him attacking us first?

We're going to do everything to protect ourselves.

-Hey. -Come.

You little...

Let's go.

What happened? Where did they go?

-Is he Harry Potter? -Idiot.

What were you doing?

I don't know.

I was scared because they came at me.

-It was self-defense. -Gosh.

This is Joseon.

This cannot be.

This cannot be happening.

How did we end up here again?

We are in Joseon.

Is your head okay?

My head's fine, but...

But?

No.

What do we have here?

Who are these people?

I think they are Japanese soldiers.

Japanese soldiers?

"To die is to live."

He could have returned alone.

Why did he have to take my precious granddaughter?

Could we just hold hands?

Is there a war?

How did you know it was the Imjin year?

May I ask who you are?

Welcome, Dr. Choe Yeon-gyeong.

-What would happen to him? -Wait a moment.

It will also be a good thing if he repays the country with his life.

How was the world without any class? Was it different from here?

Did you think you could have everything there you couldn't have here?

You are not free to save one's life as you wish here.

In this land, that is how things are.
