Original subtitles

Well, I'm sorry but now I want to win.

I won't let you go alone into any operation room.

-Has it started? -Yes, just now.

We'll perform a SAVER.

If we operate on him without their consent,

we'll be in big trouble.

His blood pressure is going down.

-Let's do it. -Get things ready.

-Dr. Park. -He'll die if we don't do anything.

We need the consent of his family.

What use will there be when he's dead by that time?

What are you doing?

Get the defibrillator ready.

Tell me right away if there's bleeding somewhere else.

Okay, we will perform the SAVER.

Scalpel.

So they are the doctors?

Yes, they are competing against each other.

And this is their final match?

Yes, Sir.

What are the evaluation criteria?

It's a heart operation.

So the heart must beat after the surgery.

That's very simple.

Bone saw.

That's gross.

You're right. The path a doctor must go

is gross and scary. That's why it's hard for me.

Hey, Tomboy!

Don't do that. Your bro is performing a surgery. Look.

-Is he? -Yes.

This operation will decide who treats the prime minister.

And that's your bro, right?

The one in the left--

Where is he?

Right there.

Bovie.

Please prepare the bone saw.

Mrs. Min?

Give it to me.

Dr. Park. Check the bone saw once more.

We have no time for that.

Wait. Stop.

Dr. Park!

What's going on?

The saw blade came off.

-What? -It happens sometimes.

-Dr. Park. -Silence.

I need new gloves.

Vital check.

Blood pressure is dropping but--

Just keep your eye on that.

I need to stitch this. Please get me some needle and thread.

Come this way.

Get out of here.

Right now!

-Mrs. Min. -I said get out.

What are you doing? Whatever it is, do it after this.

Get out of here for our son's sake!

You don't deserve to be here. Get out right now.

What's going on there?

What happened?

I think Dr. Park is injured.

He was cut by the saw blade.

Is it serious?

-This much. -Then he can't operate.

They have a big problem.

What? Dr. Yang is leaving?

I'm sorry. I'm afraid he's...

Later. We need another surgeon.

They're all in an operation.

Anyone but Dr. Yang.

Call the next operation room.

It's Dr. Park.

What is it?

I need you to send me a surgeon.

Call Dr. Yang back in.

Just send me one of yours.

Dr. Kim will be there.

Bovie.

Jae-jun.

Stay focused.

-Dr. Kim can't assist yet. -Where's the donor heart?

It will be here soon.

Hello?

Yes.

Okay, got it.

Move! Move!

Wait.

I'll go and help them.

-They have Dr. Kim. -Jae-jun.

-What? -Dr. Kim can't do it. I'll do it.

Is that the only reason you want to help him?

Don't go.

It's just your curiosity.

A temporary attraction for something new.

Are you sure?

Did you call me?

-Go and help them. -Okay.

No.

Stay here.

What?

Dr. Oh.

-So he sent the quack? -Shut it.

You got injured like an idiot?

-Come over here. -Are you asking me to perform it?

Is the injury that serious?

Just listen to me and come here.

What's going on?

You'll use your left hand?

What? He's going to operate with his left hand?

Be quiet and just watch.

Okay, let's start. Scalpel.

Gosh, I can't believe what my eyes are seeing.

Is it okay to use his left hand?

He's doing it.

That won't be easy.

How can he do this with his left hand?

That's amazing.

Wow. Dr. Han is really good.

Needle holder.

Cut.

ACC off.

How did it go?

They made it.

Really?

That's good news.

Yes!

You did great, Dr. Park.

Good job, Dr. Park.

You did a good job too, Mrs. Min.

What are you doing?

-Okay. I'm sorry. Good job. -Good job.

Good job.

Hey, Quack.

What's going on? You did a good job.

I'll go and see his family. Good job, everyone.

-Good job. -Good job.

OPERATING ROOM

The operation was successful.

But his condition was very poor. He might need more time to recover.

What do you mean time to recover?

He needs an artificial ventilator until his heart functions normally.

He will be kept under anesthesia.

When will he wake up?

I think four days will be enough.

Is it because there was a problem during the surgery?

We did our best so don't worry and be patient.

Thank you.

Dr. Park!

Hey. Go to intensive care and check our patient.

-I need to talk to you. -Okay. Later.

-Did you see Mrs. Min or Dr. Yang? -Dr. Park.

You did a great job today.

I'm exhausted. Where did Mrs. Min go?

Do you really know

how hard that was for me?

What have you done?

Jeong-han.

That patient could have died.

He couldn't afford an operation.

He had the operation anyway.

Yes. Thanks to Park Hun.

But there is only one Park Hun.

He won't always be there to help us.

We need money and power to protect ourselves.

So that's why you did what you did?

Yes, to protect my family.

-Or for the money? -What difference does it make?

-You think it's the same? -My family needs the money.

We don't need money. We need an honorable husband and father.

Can't you see that?

Until when should we tolerate this?

Until when should we...

I want you to apologize.

I'm sorry, Su-ji.

Not to me.

To Dr. Park.

-I don't like him. -Why?

-Tell me. Why? -I just don't. He's too good.

Dr. Yang. Dr. Yang!

What? You heard us?

Well, you were quite loud.

-I'm sorry. -Don't worry.

I have very poor memory and I already forgot.

Thank you. But next time try not to overhear.

Okay?

-His blood pressure keeps dropping. -More Norepinephrine.

NOREPINEPHRINE: TREATS LOW BLOOD PRESSURE AND HEART FAILURE

Do you think he'll be fine?

They're just common symptoms after a big surgery so calm down.

His family's watching.

INTENSIVE CARE UNIT

We barely succeeded so don't make them feel anxious.

Okay.

Yes, understood.

He is fine. He only needs more time to be stabilized.

-What should we do? -We must find a solution.

INTENSIVE CARE UNIT

Excuse me, may I have a minute with you, Ma'am?

Okay.

A surgery that is not practiced anymore?

So you gave your consent for a VAD operation, right?

Yes. I heard it's a very expensive treatment but they did it for free.

In fact, he had some other strange surgery.

That's why he's still unconscious.

No, but the doctor told us the operation was successful.

No doctor says his operation wasn't successful.

Actually, he even killed a patient during an operation.

He killed a patient trying to show off his skills.

I thought he was a graduate from Myeongwoo Medical School.

Doctors from there are good.

No, don't even say that.

He is from North Korea.

-North Korea? -Yes, Pyeongyang Medical School.

I didn't want to say this. But he killed a patient

and he performed that strange operation to make up for it.

Both operations were successful, Mr. Oh.

And I believe the SAVER is

much more difficult to perform than a heart transplant.

And that's why nobody performs it nowadays.

-Right, Sir? -Yes.

-I acknowledge it was difficult. -Yes.

But that doesn't mean the competition is over.

-What? -The patients are still recovering.

We'll choose the winner after the patients wake up.

Are you sure your patient will wake up with no problems?

Yes, I told you he will. So go and get the confirmation.

What confirmation?

It was a more difficult operation that will have better results.

So get the confirmation that if the patient wakes up,

we will be the winners.

-I must talk to Dr. Park Hun. -Ma'am, please.

I have to talk to him. Please. Don't try to stop me.

I hear no doctors perform

the SAVER anymore.

That was the only solution for your husband and it was successful.

Successful? He's still unconscious!

He's only being treated.

-Don't lie to me. -What do you mean?

They told me you killed a patient during an operation.

And you're not a Myeongwoo Medical School graduate.

You're from North Korea!

And you dare to perform a strange surgery on my husband?

And without our consent?

I apologize for not getting your consent prior to the operation.

I don't care!

If the operation was really successful, wake him up right now.

-I can't do that. -Something went wrong, didn't it?

Do I have to sue you for murder?

Unstable blood pressure and arrhythmia

are common after a heart surgery.

I explained to her but she won't listen.

Then we'll explain until she understands.

What if we wake him up for a moment so she will stop complaining?

And do something that might affect the patient's recovery?

Everything will be fine when he wakes up.

We'll just wait a little bit more. We can't risk his health.

If we don't prove her the operation was successful,

we might have a serious problem for not getting her consent.

Serious problem?

They might hold a disciplinary committee.

I don't care. He will wake up and be fine.

Then we'll be winning. So don't worry, okay?

Okay.

Just stay with him.

Whatever the reason, don't wake him up without my approval.

Don't you have anything to say?

I'm sorry I left

the operating room.

Not that.

Park Hun

is not for you.

Why?

You really don't know?

He has someone else.

I know. Jae Hui.

You will only get hurt.

He might not find Jae Hui.

But she is still in his heart.

-Finding her or not doesn't matter. -Yes, I know!

-Su-hyeon... -I know.

I just can't help it.

I know Jae Hui is in his heart but I still like him.

I thought it was out of curiosity. That I'll soon get tired of him.

So I tried to forget but I can't.

The harder I try to forget the more he comes to my mind.

And I can't stop crying.

I'm sorry.

I...

I don't want to hurt you anymore.

I really don't.

Don't go.

Let me go.

You'll soon forget me.

Please.

Stop, stop, stop.

Do you know what this is?

I don't and I don't care.

Wait, this is called the BIS.

Your bro had a match with my bro yesterday, right?

Well, this thing will decide who the winner is.

How?

This will check if the patient is returning to consciousness or not.

If the numbers here go up, the patient is waking up.

But this device has a secret important function.

You stick it here.

It can see if we are compatible, you know.

Then you should know what I'm thinking right now.

Dr. Han, isn't it too early to wake her up?

It's just the right time.

-Mom! Mom. -Honey.

-Honey. -Dad, she's awake.

Doctor, thank you. Thank you very much.

Honey.

Would you blink your eyes if you can hear me?

Why is our patient not waking up?

Today and tomorrow are critical, so keep an eye on him.

I'll explain to you in detail outside.

Fine, go ahead.

She woke up. Why isn't my husband waking up?

His condition was poor before the surgery. That's why he needs more time.

Then when is he waking up? Tell me specifically.

We're only being more careful because he might have complications.

We're doing our best so just wait a few more days.

How much longer?

Are you trying to get rid of evidence before we find out?

No, Ma'am. Please be patient.

I can't! Wake him up! Wake him up right now!

Male patient, age 45.

We had further examinations in case of cardiac infarction.

We found out his valves and left ventricle showed anomalies.

So we tried to insert a ventricular assist device.

But the patient suffers from blood coagulation disorder

so I decided to perform a SAVER.

Why perform an operation that nobody performs anymore?

Are you that ignorant?

It is only very difficult, but it is still performed.

The patient had 40% dead tissue so it wasn't an easy decision.

But the operation was successful.

How can you be so sure?

Because I've done it many times.

Where?

In North Korea?

Yes.

Did all your patients survive?

Did they?

No.

Then this one might also die.

So you perform a surgery that could kill your patient, right?

Did you manage to save all your patients?

Did you?

They say a cardiothoracic surgeon

is as good as the number of patients that die in his operation room.

We painstakingly study and work so their deaths won't be in vain.

Because we can't let the next one die.

Because we must save this one.

Because that's the only way to be forgiven for their deaths.

The operation was successful.

I'm sure the patients that died in my operating room will forgive me.

They won't forgive me if I hadn't tried just to avoid a failure.

That's very touching.

But isn't it too soon to be forgiven?

Your patient must first wake up and then you'll be forgiven.

He is under anesthesia to help him recover.

Is it that you won't or that you can't?

-What do you mean? -Maybe you want to hide you failed.

And you don't want to wake him up.

That's not what's happening.

I'm suspicious about having him rest for so long.

-We'll wake him up in two days. -What if he doesn't wake up?

That won't happen. He will wake up.

He must.

Or you won't only have lost the match but become a murderer.

You didn't get his family consent.

Yes, I am to be blamed for that.

I will take whatever disciplinary action.

It's not about disciplinary actions.

His family might sue us for murder. What will you do then?

That won't happen if the patient wakes up.

Did you explain his family that he had a SAVER?

-I couldn't. -Did you not explain it on purpose?

-No. -Then why didn't you explain them?

It was an emergency.

What emergency?

Are you talking about his blood coagulation disorder?

Yes.

Dr. Yang. When did Dr. Park find out he had such disorder?

Before the incision.

So it was before the surgery.

Then you had the time and chance to explain to his family.

But you forced the operation. Am I wrong?

I believed he needed it right away considering his condition.

Considering his condition you should have stopped it.

If he copes with operation--

Stop making excuses. He was not in a condition to handle it.

He needed to be saved.

So that again. Save the patient?

Stop pretending to be the only doctor that cares for his patients.

-Dr. Han. -Why do you think we need consent?

The consent is there to protect the patient and you neglected it.

And you still say you want to save him and care for him?

-I will apologize to his family. -Apologize?

You didn't even tell them about the procedure or get their consent.

The patient isn't waking up. Why would they accept your apology?

-He will wake up. -Wake him up right now.

Wake him up and prove his family that he is fine.

What? He didn't get their consent?

-North Koreans. -He's out of his mind.

Is an operation a joke?

Did you see him do it intentionally?

If you didn't, shut it. You don't even know what happened!

Let's go.

-He will wake up. -He must.

Or you won't only have lost the match but become a murderer.

His family might sue us for murder. What will you do then?

Wake him up and prove his family that he is fine.

We must not wake him up. Give me two days. Just two days.

I don't decide that.

The success of the operation was the criterion, not when.

You might be lying to us after you failed.

You know that's not true!

Do I?

I once thought we could be good friends.

Now we are competing against each other.

But once this is over, I thought we'd be friends.

I guess I was wrong.

That will never happen.

Code blue, code blue. Intensive care, code blue.

INTENSIVE CARE UNIT

-Charge to 200 Joules. -What happened?

Once more. Shoot.

Once more, shoot.

He had a cardiac arrest while we were trying to wake him up.

What's wrong with my husband? Something is wrong, isn't it?

It's a common symptom after a surgery so don't worry.

How can I not worry?

His heart stopped when you tried to wake him up!

That happens usually after a heart surgery.

And we're ready for it.

Stop talking.

Stop what? Did I say something wrong?

Stay with the patient.

-And you call yourself a doctor? -What did I do?

-You almost killed him. -Because I trusted you.

-Then you should have waited. -The operation was successful.

I saw it with my two eyes.

-So what? -I thought we could wake him up.

Why? Who told you to do it?

Because you'll have to leave the hospital if he doesn't!

And why do you care so much if I leave or not?

Because...

Because I like you.

Because I like you.

And I don't want you to leave.

Happy?

Don't ask me not to like you. I couldn't help it.

Is it because of Jae Hui?

Your father, Oh Jun-gyu,

sent my father, Park Cheol to North Korea.

He planned it with Jang Seok-ju.

What are you talking about?

My father was to be a witness for a lawsuit against Myeongwoo.

And that's why your father sent my father to North Korea.

Now you know why, so wake up.

-Is it true? -What are you talking about?

Did you really send Dr. Park's father to North Korea?

-Did you? -He told you?

Answer me! Did you?

Yes, I did.

How?

How can you do such a horrible thing?

How?

His father tried to ruin my hospital.

Why did you? Why?

I did what I had to do to protect my hospital.

Father.

So don't get close to Park Hun.

How am I supposed to look at Dr. Park from now on?

How?

Then just don't.

I can't stop thinking about him. How?

I didn't expect you to come, Sir.

The match is over but we still don't have a winner that's why I'm here.

Dr. Park's patient has not woken up yet.

Did your patient wake up?

Yes.

Very good. What if we do this?

If we wake up his patient and he's fine, it will be tied.

If he doesn't wake up, Dr. Park loses.

-How about it? -Good, Sir.

What now? You'll lose if you don't wake him up now.

I can't wake him up.

He had an arrest so it might take even longer now.

He might wake up and be fine.

His vital signs were stable since the day of the operation.

I checked him every two hours after he had the arrest and he's stable.

Okay. I'm telling them we're waking him up, so don't stop me.

I'm not sure about waking him up.

Let's just do it. I think he'll be fine.

-Because you want to win? -No.

Because I trust you.

The operation was successful, so he will wake up.

STOP

I think we have the winner.

Sir!

Sir, are you awake?

Honey,

do you...

Do you recognize me?

My wife.

Yes, that's me. Your wife.

Honey! Honey.

Honey.

Honey.

Honey.

Then

it ended in a tie.

Yes, Sir.

Then they'll have an extra round.

Of course.

I really hope we get a winner during the extra round.

Prepare yourself well for the extra round.

That's what I want to tell you.

Do you have multiple personality disorder or something?

We were in good terms before the surgery and now you hate me.

I'm so pleased. So pleased to see him distressed.

That's because you're a mean old man.

Whose side are you on? Mine or his?

My own.

Gosh.

Jae-jun,

Dr. Oh didn't come today.

So today, I will be assisting you.

-She didn't come? -No. She's sick.

-What time is the operation? -At five.

Have a good day.

I can't see you this way.

-Let's go to the hospital. -I'm okay.

No, you're not okay.

You look terrible.

-I'm okay. -Su-hyeon.

I'm sorry

but I want to be alone.

No. What if you faint?

Leave me alone please.

Did Dr. Park scold you

for waking up his patient?

Then what is it?

Jae-jun.

You remember what you said?

You said Dr. Park is like

a new bag. Something new and eccentric.

But...

But why is this happening?

It hurts too much.

Too much.

What happened?

Tell me what's going on.

I told him that

I like him.

What?

But he said we can never be together.

I think I'm going to die from this pain.

What should I do?

Okay, just cry.

Let it go.

Where have you been, Jae-jun?

-Chi-gyu. -Yes?

-The princess in the castle. -The princess?

Oh, yes. The princess.

She fell in love with another knight.

Oh, it's a love triangle.

But the princess...

confessed her love to that knight,

but she was rejected and now cries unceasingly.

And I'm not upset about it.

My heart aches.

Then that's true love.

True love?

Yes.

You hate her but at the same time your heart aches.

Then the knight is done. He now truly loves the princess.

Eat something. I made porridge.

I'm sorry.

I don't feel like eating.

What's going on?

I told Dr. Park that like him

and I got rejected.

That's pathetic,

isn't it?

Dr. Oh.

I'm fine. You don't have to comfort me.

I'm sorry.

Sorry for what?

I'm sorry, Dr. Oh.

What's this?

I'm okay.

Dr. Oh told me what happened between you.

I told her about her father. It must have been shocking for her.

I didn't want to hurt her.

How is my mother doing?

One month?

Okay.

I'll wait.

But take good care of her.

Your father, Oh Jun-gyu, sent my father, Park Cheol to North Korea.

He planned it with Jang Seok-ju.

My father was to be a witness for a lawsuit against Myeongwoo.

And that's why your father sent my father to North Korea.

Now you know why, so wake up.

His father tried to ruin my hospital.

I did what I had to do to protect my hospital.

Jae Hui had a kidney transplant two years ago.

A kidney transplant?

MEDICAL RECORD

Both kidneys were in bad condition so she got one new kidney.

I'm sorry, Dr. Oh.
