Original subtitles

Do something.

Why isn't he coming?

Dr. Han, come here quickly. Come on.

Dr. Park.

-What's all this, Master? -Park Hun.

Okay, time to change players.

-That's Park Hun. He's here. -Dr. Park came.

-Really? -Where had he been all this time?

Needle holder. Forceps.

Done. He's fine. We saved the patient.

We're not done yet. Stay focused.

All right.

Why did you come back?

Did Dr. Mun take care of it?

No,

Park Hun is there.

Dr. Yang Jeong-han.

Yang Jeong-han speaking.

You still remember what I said?

Don't let Park Hun's operation turn out to be successful.

You must make him lose.

Yes, Sir.

We have a mess in the septum and valves.

The damage is severe.

Yes, nothing's good here.

This does require a lot of work.

Then we'll suture it quickly and nicely.

Okay, let's start with the interventricular septum.

You're blocking my view.

I'm sorry. I was trying to help.

Please continue.

Stop hesitating and step back.

I won't tolerate anymore.

Master, you be the first assistant.

Why me?

Just do it!

Cut.

Turn the pump off.

-Hey, what are you doing? -He's unstable. It's fluctuating.

-Stay focused. -You need a cardiac anesthetist.

I'll do it.

How about you seriously consider being my adoptive son?

My mother won't like it.

-Would you finish it for me? -Of course.

Dr. Park.

How can you smile right now?

Should I cry then?

Hun.

Stop it.

I told you not to come.

I told you I won't let you go alone in an operating room.

You weren't supposed to be in there.

I know it's dangerous.

That's why I won't let you do this alone.

It's not too late, so leave.

I'm not leaving you.

Leave, please.

Don't do this if you really care about me.

I hated you when you let go of my hand on that bridge in Budapest.

Life without you was meaningless.

I hated myself for not falling down the river with you.

So don't do that again.

I'm going to win this match no matter what, so let's do this together.

We'll stick to your first plan and perform the operation together.

I'll win, so that you can meet the president.

And Han Jae-jun is a good doctor.

We can't ruin his life by getting him involved in this.

Worry about yourself.

True, I've got plenty to worry about.

But there is one thing you can do to help relieve my concern.

What would that be?

My mom.

Please.

Hello?

So, Park Hun returned?

He still stays

out of the plan.

Han Jae-jun and I will

operate on the prime minister.

Maybe I should wash it.

Bro!

Where's Mom?

Whose mom?

Mom.

Hun, there you are.

Where have you been?

I've been looking for you.

I'm sorry, Hun.

I'm really sorry.

Don't be sorry.

It's my fault.

Who are you?

It's me.

Hun.

My son Hun is only eight.

I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry.

I always thought

you abandoned me.

And I blamed you for it.

I didn't know you were in this condition.

I'm sorry, Mom.

I'm sorry.

Does she have to stay with me?

Yes, please.

But I'm scared.

I mean, I'm not scared of her.

It's more about Jae Hui.

Hiding her here means that there are people looking for her.

That's why I'm asking you. Because I trust you the most.

Cut the nonsense.

Then the second most?

That's not funny.

I think it's funny.

I'm leaving. Take care of her.

I'm surprised you personally came here to see me.

I heard that

Park Hun won't make it.

That's what I said.

Very well. What's going on?

You just have to choose the doctor you want.

Why can't you make a choice?

I'm afraid our hospital will have to pull out of this.

The heart to be operated...

is not mine.

It's not my heart

but my boss's.

Are you saying...

Yes, it's the president's heart.

But why didn't you...

His health condition

is confidential.

The public's support rate is already low.

It wouldn't do him any good if the public knows.

Then after the operation...

Yes, you'll get government aid.

And Myeongwoo will be known as the hospital that treated the president.

Gosh, I really thought he was going to die.

Well, it has been a while you last operated on a patient.

But why did Park Hun ask you to step back?

I guess he thought you were better.

And you also left the operating room the day that saw blade came off.

But what's going on with the match?

The match?

It's a tie, right?

Of course, it is.

Mr. Oh hasn't come back yet. I'll call you when he comes back.

Dr. Han!

It's a tie, right?

Yes or no?

Mr. Oh will decide.

Your face says it's a tie.

Mr. Oh.

It's a mitral stenosis patient.

I can see some calcific valves.

Yes, that's the patient for the next match.

It's a simple operation. He only needs a prosthetic valve.

What?

Your case is even easier.

The one who finishes first will be the winner.

-The prognosis will be counted too. -Sir, this is not fair.

Our patient is a male in his 40s and his is a female in her 20s.

Also, our patient has a calcific valve which will make it more difficult.

-You don't want this patient? -Of course not.

Then we'll end this here and consider Dr. Han the winner.

-Mr. Oh... -The prime minister wants a doctor.

You can't keep competing forever.

-But... -But what?

What?

I'll do it.

What? Hey!

You don't want me to?

Hey!

It's never been fair.

But this is too unfair.

I'll win so don't worry.

Are you sure?

Yes, but I need to reorganize my team.

Explain to me.

What happened?

Didn't I tell you

that I won't let it go if I find you doing anything suspicious?

I didn't do

anything wrong.

Stop lying.

Very well. Dr. Yang, you're not permitted to my operating room.

Dr. Park.

It's not just about the money.

I just can't tolerate your arrogance.

Jeong-han.

You have no idea how hard it is for someone ordinary like me

to survive in this world.

Dr. Mun gave you the check you gave me for the patient.

You can get that money anytime you want.

But I have to work months for that money.

Or play dirty.

Jeong-han.

I've played dirty many times before.

And I know how much that hurts and how much I regret it.

That's why I'm asking you to stay out of my OR.

And you are not an ordinary man.

Just by wearing that doctor's gown,

people will entrust their lives into your hands.

So let's not disappoint them anymore,

Dr. Yang.

Dr. Park is right.

Jeong-han,

you might lose everything

if you stay here any longer.

Just perform the operation.

Will the prime minister approve of this?

Don't worry about that.

Yes, Sir.

If you are chosen as the prime minister's doctor,

you must act on behalf of me.

You'll win the match so I'm letting you know ahead.

But how?

My son will help you with anything you need to know, so don't worry.

LAWSUIT

Don't forget. I will have my revenge!

I will have my revenge!

I'm almost there.

Almost there.

Do you have a minute?

What is it?

I'm sorry it ended in a tie.

Goodness.

You came to say that?

Well, no.

You must be busy so I'll make it short.

I want you to give up on this match.

At least I offered you money when I asked you to give up.

Your career might depend on it.

I don't understand a word you're saying.

It's because I can't tell you everything.

My answer is no.

Are we done?

Give up the prime minister's operation for your own sake.

You have to trust me.

You give up if it's really for my sake.

Can't you go with what I say?

Those involved in that operation will get their hands dirty.

Like your father did?

What does he have to do with this?

Let's say there is some sort of association.

If that's all, please leave.

So you're very interested in my father.

How did you know that?

-Know what? -That he went to North Korea.

Because I don't remember telling you that information.

I met a friend called Lee Sung-hun in Harvard.

LAWSUIT

How did you get this?

He asked me

to find out what happened to Park Cheol if I go to Korea.

The man that betrayed his father and family

for his own ambition.

He said he wants to repay him for what he did.

I think he's got it wrong.

Wrong?

My father didn't go to North Korea for his ambition.

He went there to stop a war.

To be precise, he went there because he was deceived

-by Oh Jun-gyu and Jang Seok-ju. -Don't lie.

Do you think my friend will believe such nonsense?

I want him to believe me so I must talk to him.

I heard that Mr. Choi Byeong-cheol went to the US to find him.

I lost contact with him.

Hey, Quack.

Why are you running away?

Why are you running away?

I'm not running away.

Then why do you walk so fast?

WHEN DID I DO THAT?

Yes, you did. I had to run to catch you.

What do you want?

Don't you have anything to tell me?

I don't.

Then I'll talk.

First of all, I'm very sorry.

Second, don't worry about what your father did.

It's not your fault.

And third, you need some scalp massage to prevent hair loss.

Don't do that.

Why not?

What are you doing?

I just want us to get along.

-And you think that's possible? -Of course, it's possible.

-Stop it. -Yes, it's possible.

-Hear me out. -Stop it.

Hey, come on.

Hey, come on!

Come on, Quack.

I don't want your father to be upset.

So I can pretend that everything is fine between us.

But I won't tolerate Park Hun.

I know.

But you joke around with him.

I don't want things to get awkward, that's why.

Jae Hui is everything to him.

I'm trying to move on

so don't worry so much.

I was confused that day. It was too much for me.

And I was embarrassed too.

I'm sorry I lied to you.

Then tell me.

Dr. Han... No, Jae Hui.

Are you from North Korea?

Do you have an ulterior motive for operating on the prime minister?

-Dr. Oh. -If that's the case,

I'm not going to let you go ahead with your plan.

Don't put Park Hun in danger.

Yes, Hun and I met in North Korea.

But to be precise,

I'm from Japan.

I was sent to Japan after Hun and I got separated.

I was treated in Japan and finished medical school there.

Then why did you pretend you didn't know him?

Honestly,

I wasn't ready.

What do you mean? You're the only one for him.

You saw my kidney.

Yes.

That kidney

was my father's.

And Hun transplanted it.

He did it to save me but

he let my father die.

That's why I wasn't ready.

I wasn't sure I'd love him

like I used to upon meeting him.

No, but he loves you.

Yes, I hoped so.

But what he feels for me...

might be guilt or obligation.

I feel that

especially when he's with you.

-No, I... -I'm going back to Japan soon.

To Japan?

Hun...

No, Dr. Park

likes you.

Not out of guilt or obligation.

He genuinely likes you.

What are you talking about?

If Hun hadn't let my father die

and your father and his weren't fated to be enemies,

he would have

chosen you.

No,

you're the only one for him.

Hold on to him until I go back to Japan.

If you stay close to him, you'll get to know how he feels about you.

You've worked in a restaurant before, right?

Yes.

Why?

Okay. That's all I need.

You said you worked in a restaurant.

I only saw the chef cook.

I was the delivery girl.

Mom, dinner is ready.

See? I told you she only eats porridge.

Your food is not appealing.

Come on. I did my best.

What now?

-Eat. -Okay, eat.

Thank you.

We don't have the blood test result yet?

We have it. I pushed them to get it ready.

Well done.

Hello, everyone! Hello, Quack!

Hold on to him until I go back to Japan.

If you stay close to him, you'll get to know how he feels about you.

Did you fight again?

You should at least say hi back.

Stop calling me "Quack."

My patients will think I'm really a quack.

I'm sorry, Quack. Sorry.

It's become a habit, what can I do?

So, Quack...

Oh my.

Forget it.

I'm forgiving you only because I'm a better person than you are.

-I think we should go. -Yes, we should.

I don't feel comfortable anymore when you make jokes.

Please don't do that.

I'm trying to make you feel comfortable.

It won't happen overnight.

Jeez.

She likes you, right? There's something between you two.

-Playing hard to get, huh? -Who are you?

Me?

They called me the flaming stick from Eungam-dong.

What?

A flaming what?

Oh, forget I said that. I'm just a patient who is trying to be a nice person.

You know we all have a past.

Well, young lady. A patient shouldn't be here.

So go back to your room.

What?

Good luck with her.

What's wrong with her?

What's going on?

What? Why did you tell Mom?

Because I had to!

She's just a hard-working girl.

It's not about her. It's about you flirting with every girl!

Like you don't flirt with everyone!

But I stopped doing it.

-I'm getting married next month. -What?

Does he know how many guys you stepped on with those shoes?

You are a criminal!

This jerk is really starting to rile me up.

-Jerk? I'm your brother! -Then behave like one!

-Put that down! -Oh, yeah?

-Hey. Calm down. -Come here.

-We're in a hospital! Please! -You jerk.

-Hey. -What?

We're in a hospital! Stop!

-Behave like a brother. -Okay, okay.

-Stop it. -You heard me?

-Hey. -What?

It's my boss.

What are you doing to the patient?

Oh, yes. She is a patient but...

Hello. I'm the sister of this punk doctor.

-Your boss looks really nice. -Shut up.

-What are you doing? -Would you stop!

-Operating on my valves? -Yes.

-You have mitral stenosis. -Mitral stenosis?

Yes.

It might cause left atrial aneurysm and atrial lesion if left untreated.

Atrial fibrillation, right?

How did you know that? Are you studying for medical school or what?

Everyone knows except for you.

The poor supply of blood in the left ventricle causes dizziness,

which is why you have left ventricular failure.

Okay. Do I have any other options besides an operation?

Can't it be treated with medication?

I'm afraid it's necessary.

-Give her the details. -Okay.

Thank you.

Hey, how did you know all that?

I've met ten different doctors telling me the same thing.

Ten different doctors?

Because I don't want an operation!

It's simple. The heart has four chambers where blood flows in and out.

There's a wall between the left and right chambers.

And a door between the upper and lower chambers.

The wall is the septal

and the door is the valve.

Yes, correct.

I did some research on it.

Okay, then that would make the explanation easier.

Basically, one of your doors is broken.

The blood flow won't be normal and the left upper chamber will expand.

That's too much work for your heart.

That's why it beats irregularly.

We'll change the broken door through the operation.

It's not a difficult operation so don't worry.

Thank you.

Get some rest.

Hey, tall one.

Hey, Stick.

Don't bring up my past.

You explain it so well.

Well, thank you.

Can I ask you something?

What is it?

So the only solution is an operation?

Yes.

Patients with mitral stenosis must be operated.

Okay?

Do you know Han Jae-jun? That doctor from Harvard.

-Why do you ask? -Can I trust him?

Well, he's good.

One last thing.

Are you sure

there's no other solution?

-I'm positive. -Really?

Are you scared of having a surgery?

Yes, but I'm getting married next month.

I met the love of my life.

You might laugh at me for saying this, but even our hearts beat identically.

You want to see? I'll show you.

KIM A-YEONG

That's pretty.

They look similar but they're different dresses.

It can be a little confusing.

I spent days choosing the right ones.

That's nice.

I want to live happily with him.

Live happily ever after and have many kids.

But that operation won't allow me to have kids!

Well, not always. But it can be difficult.

He says he'll be fine without kids.

That we can be happy together. But I really want kids.

I even bought baby clothes.

For my future baby.

Now do you see why I don't want to have the operation?

I can see that but I'm afraid you must.

Well, then.

-Show me that door. -What door?

The door of the left upper chamber of my heart that needs to be fixed.

-Why? -To vent my anger on it.

Name?

Kim A-yeong

Pretty name, right?

Kim A-yeong.

Where's that stupid door?

Here...

Stupid door! You spoiled my dreams!

I'm going to break you!

Thank you.

That feels better.

Wait.

Did you know?

Know what?

Her aortic valve.

Yes, Marfan syndrome.

-So what? -"So what"?

She can be operated when the aortic aneurysm grows.

She doesn't have to be operated now.

Her mitral valve shrank and needs to be operated.

Can't you see that?

Her heart can tolerate it if she doesn't exercise too much.

She'll get married soon.

She'll be medicated with Warfarin.

-That can affect her pregnancy. -So what?

-She can delay the operation. -And give up the match?

Her condition will worsen if she gets pregnant.

She'll die if a vessel breaks from an aortic dissection.

It's not that serious.

You can't gamble on a person's life.

You know she doesn't need that surgery right now.

She can have the surgery after having a baby.

If lucky, she could even go without surgery for ten years.

This operation will change her life.

She'll be healthy after the surgery. Who cares what happens later?

You have to consider her life after the surgery.

You worry about your own patient.

I'm operating on her anyway.

Is this because of the competition? We'll call it a tie.

It won't end in a tie. This is the last match.

Take her as your patient if you're such a great doctor.

-What? -We'll exchange patients.

But you're not going to do that

because you'll lose if you don't operate on her.

Let me know whenever you want to exchange patients.

Is that true?

I heard everything. So what you said is true?

-Why do you ask? -Well.

That patient is

my sister.

Is that true?

As far as I can see,

yes.

So you don't want the operation?

No, that's not what I meant.

I just want your honest opinion.

She needs the surgery.

Her mitral valve has shrunk, it'll affect her everyday life.

Right, I'm sure.

Can you believe she met ten different doctors so as to avoid this operation?

She's worried it might ruin her wedding next month.

Or that she might not be able to get pregnant.

She used to be such a party animal.

It's surprising to see how she's willing to settle down.

You can leave now.

Okay.

But Dr. Park said

she might not need the operation...

-Are you stupid or what? -What?

What are the symptoms of mitral stenosis?

What are they?

Well, the symptoms...

Difficulty in breathing and...

Atrial fibrillation, nocturnal dyspnea,

pain in the chest, hemoptysis, stroke due to thrombosis.

You didn't say it was that serious.

Then when does it get serious?

Do they come with a warning?

She needs the operation before the worst happens.

I see.

Are you doing this

because you want to win?

Other doctors diagnosed the same.

And I agree with them.

We'll fix the MS.

Okay.

It may be possible to get pregnant even after she's had her surgery.

Your sister can have the normal married life she wants.

I recommend the operation as her doctor.

It's me or Dr. Park.

Think about what you should choose.

Hey, so she has Marfan syndrome?

-Who told you that? -Kim Chi-gyu.

He's been asking everyone about it.

This is a God-given chance.

What God-given chance?

We can tell his sister

she doesn't need the operation right now.

Then she leaves the hospital and we win.

She's Dr. Han's patient so don't tell her.

I already did.

She's here.

Hey, tall one.

I really don't need the operation?

Tell me.

Tell me

or I'm going to stick my heel in your head.

That's my opinion.

You can have it later when an aortic aneurysm is noticeable.

Would you just shut it?

You heard him. I don't have to.

I can go home.

You have to!

-He said I don't have to! -And you trust him?

-He's a doctor here. -How can you trust him?

Do you know where he's from? He's from Pyongyang!

So what?

He's still a doctor.

Dr. Han is a Harvard graduate and he said you need the surgery.

And the other doctors also said you have to!

So...

So you're telling me to have the surgery?

I asked everyone.

If I have an artificial valve, it might be hard for me to get pregnant.

Even if I do get pregnant, I might have a miscarriage.

You can have a baby if you try hard.

Why do I have to try hard when it's so easy for everyone else?

I just want to

enjoy life like everyone else.

I can do that if I get the operation later.

Then you tell me.

I'll do what you tell me to.

I'll listen to you.

You want me to have the surgery or not?

Tell me.

You tell me what to do!

Yes.

Get an operation.

Is there anything you want to leave with me?

Answer the calls.

I canceled the wedding.

Okay.

Let's go. Take her.

What if this ends in a tie?

Then the hospital will choose.

Choose who?

The chairman of the hospital will decide.

He's in your hands.

What is it? Did anything happen?

-I'm helping Dr. Han. -What do you mean?

You really don't know?

Then think about it. Think about what you did to me.

What are you talking about?

We'll talk after the operation.

OPERATING ROOM

You have to get ready.

Why is she going there?

She did that the last time.

You just focus on your operation.

If you win, I'll bring her back by all means. Go.

Chi-gyu, you can stay out.

-Can I? -Yes.

Sir.

She's in your hands.

Okay.

We're ready.

How did we get here? It was a win for us when we had the twins operated.

Then think about it. Think about what you did to me.

I canceled the wedding.

KIM A-YEONG

They're ready.

-Check the vital signs. -Okay.

-Stay focused, Master. -It's our final match. I'm nervous.

Hey, Dr. Park.

I told my sister

not to cancel the wedding.

Dr. Han said

you can exchange patients, right?

Hey, what are you doing?

I just want my sister

to be happily married like everyone else.

-Please. -Get out!

Please.

Help me just this once.

I want to be a good brother to her.

What are you doing? Get him out of here!

No, wait. Please, Dr. Park!

Dr. Park.

Wait! Dr. Park!

Let go!

Park Hun. Don't listen to him or we'll lose.

Scalpel.

Hold the scalpel!

Hun. Don't forget.

You are a doctor.

Don't ever...

forget that.

I'm going to win this match no matter what, so let's do this together.

We'll stick to your first plan and perform the operation together.

What's going on?

What are you doing, Dr. Park?

Damn it.

-What's going on? -What is he doing in another OR?

-What are you doing? -What do you think?
