(The characters, places, organizations, and
events in this drama are works of fiction)

(Cardiothoracic Surgeon
Woo Sangmin)

The field of medicine

is currently facing a crisis.

(69% of Hospitals in Provinces
Don't Have Enough Doctors)

(From Being in Charge Of Wards, ICU, and ER
to Consulting Guardians...)

(Zero Applicants to Cardiothoracic Surgery,
No Doctors Even If Your Heart Stops!)

(Sense of Duty Not Enough Reason
To Apply for Core Medical Dept)

The number of applicants
to core medical departments is declining.

(Medical Staff on Call 24/7
for Emergencies)

In the provinces...

(National University Hospitals
Short on Core Medical Students...)

...there already aren't enough doctors
in pediatrics, emergency medicine...

(No Use in 'Increasing Manpower'
Without Better Treatment of Doctors)

...let alone doctors to perform surgeries.

My kid was burning up.

I was so worried

something bad might happen soon.

But we've been waiting for over six hours.

All the university hospitals in Seoul

told us to wait for several months.

I had to call around for days

until I found a surgeon
all the way in Incheon.

And we live in Daegu.

They closed the ER
because they had no doctors on call.

The splitting pain in my heart
was unbearable.

I thought I might actually die

right then and there.

We just keep circling
for two to three hours

until we find a hospital
that will take the patient.

And some patients die in the process.

Each year, there are
plenty of applicants for medical schools.

So why do we lack doctors each year?

Some say it's because everyone goes into
plastic surgery or dermatology for money.

That's partly true and partly false.

I'm sure there are
many doctors who want to make money.

The number problem is a real issue here.

However, the more important reason is...

...that the respect
for medical professionals...

has disappeared.

Our families discourage us.

Our seniors discourage us.

You quack!

- And you call yourself human?
- Despite that,

so many surgeons chose this path
to become true doctors.

How is someone like you even a doctor?

However, they face
verbal and physical abuse...

...without any protection whatsoever.

This is overtreatment!

How dare this hospital
try to make money off of sick patients?

They're being bought over.

Get your hands off me.
I don't want to be treated by you!

What are you waiting for?
Let's go!

And they're being hurt.

As the police investigation
has already shown,

the car accident on that day
was caused by the driver's drowsiness.

Even in the moments
where the plaintiff claims

that our medical staff neglected her son,

they were fighting hard
to save the other two patients...

who were her aides.

We were swamped that day
with a patient who fell,

two traffic accident patients,

and even a drunk patient causing a scene.

Dr. Jung Insu in emergency medicine

was handling
all of those patients on his own.

I'm sure you have checked this as a fact

through the CCTV footage
that we've submitted.

It was not negligence.

It was a tragic accident

due to a lack of manpower.

Despite covering
the workload of a hundred doctors

due to this shortage of staff
by treating and operating on patients,

the current situation forces us

to prove that we did our best in court.

The world views us
as money-hungry villains of society

with much disdain.

As someone...

who has only lived
for my patients for decades,

it makes me feel bitter...

and like everything was all in vain.

There is no honor for doctors,

let alone respect.

If we can't even have
the least bit of dignity,

which doctors will be there
to maintain the emergency rooms

and keep the operating rooms going?

(Plaintiff)

I close my final statement

by posing that question.

Master Kim!

- Master Kim!
- What is it?

(Emergency medical center)

- Master Kim!
- Yes?

I just got a call from Director Park.

The courts have ruled
in favor of Doldam Hospital!

The plaintiff lost. We won.

See? What did I tell you?
I knew this would happen!

Didn't you say we had a fire inspection
in the trauma center?

I was just on my way over there now.

You should go and finish preparing for it.

Right.

I know he's happy on the inside though.

Ms. Oh. It's me.

We won in court!

There's no need to be so happy.

I will appeal right away.

Are you still not done letting off steam?

I'm mourning the loss of my son
in my own way right now.

Wallowing in self-pity
and blaming everything on others

isn't mourning but being a nuisance.

Is it so hard to give me
a sincere apology?

Do you know...

how often I've had to deal
with people like you over the years?

The moment I apologize,

you people swarm us like a pack of dogs

to frame us
as the offenders and murderers.

It's not the first time this has happened.

I don't intend to let people
trample on us like that any longer.

Your power and pride are more important
than people's lives. Is that it?

I mean we will maintain
our self-esteem as doctors.

Let's say it's our last line of defense.

I'm curious about something.

Yes?

Why did you bring in Professor Cha Jinman?

He seems different from you
in both disposition and personality.

That's why I brought him in.
Because he's different from me.

In any organization,

being too one-sided isn't a good thing.

Many ideas and opinions
must be able to coexist

to become a healthy organization.

Also, Professor Cha is
one of our field's finest.

So there's no reason for me to refuse him.

Do you know about the incident

where a resident from Hankuk University
jumped to his death three years ago?

There were rumors
that he committed suicide

because Professor Cha was too oppressive.

We can't deny his whole career
just based on one rumor.

But what if all those rumors were true?

Would you still think the same way?

In the end,

all you people are the same.

Let me make you an offer.

Dismiss Professor Cha Jinman.

Then I'll drop the lawsuit.

I'll also review the budget needed
for the trauma center

in a favorable light.

What are you trying to say?

I'm saying we should make a deal.

I must see
Professor Cha leave this trauma center.

What do you say?

Will you take this deal?

I hope you defend yourself well
in the second trial too.

I will.

(Court)

I wish you luck.

Looks like this will become a long fight.

Right?

Well, we'll have to find a way
to win this fight.

Let's go.

Right.

(Head of The Trauma Center, Cha Jinman)

(Doldam Hospital Trauma Center)

(Volume 11
The Certainty of Uncertainty)

Ms. Eom. We're out of foam dressings
in the hybrid OR.

Nurse Euntak is in charge of that room.

The company is short in supply
and can't send any for a while.

We'll switch to another company's product.

I'll restock them
once they arrive this afternoon.

And check the BST
for the patient in bed five,

and notify
the patient can be discharged, Ms. Eom.

Yes, Doctor.

(Restricted area
Operating room)

Dr. Yoon cried a lot that day.

She was so worried about you.

I thought you should know that.

Right.

Stop staring. You're being too obvious.

You're not even good at being angry,
and yet you're pretending to be mad.

You're pretending to be mad,

and yet you keep watching
how Nurse Euntak feels and acts.

You pretend not to be,

but you keep fretting about
and caring so much about him.

It's so obvious.

I'm not pretending.

I really am mad.

But what you're doing
doesn't seem to work.

You're the only one
who's suffering. Right?

Since it has come to this,

you should take a stronger stance.

A stronger stance?

How?

First of all, you should hang out with me.

Mom.

What are you doing here?

Were you home?

I thought you went to work.

Here. This was outside.

How did you open the door?

I asked your dad what the password was.

It seems like he'll be here for a while,
so I brought some stuff he might need.

Come in.

The steam closet and dryer
will be here in a couple of hours.

But is there
enough space for everything?

Why are you bringing
Dad's stuff here?

It should go to his new place
once he finds one.

Well, it looks like
we'll have to find a new place anyway.

This place is too small
for our family to live in.

What do you mean by that?
Are you moving here too?

Should we find a two-story house?

It was your dream to live in one
and not an apartment.

How could you decide something like this
without even discussing it with me first?

We're discussing it now.

I moved out, Mom.

I've already started
living apart from you and Dad.

That was when your dad and I
weren't living nearby.

By the way,

how is Dr. Seo's hand? How is it healing?

He started rehabilitation two days ago.

Seriously, that kid.

He's a natural at making people worry.

Why would you be worried about him?

He's a surgeon. If his hand is ruined,

what good would he be?

Mom.

Dating is short, but marriage is long.

No matter
how hard you pick and choose,

you end up regretting who you marry.

I haven't given my full approval
for Seo Woojin just yet.

I thought you should know that.

Are you on call tonight?

I've cut her too much slack.

Look at those boxes of instant noodles.

All that junk food
has made her act irrationally.

My goodness.

M-Mom.

My fourth and fifth digits
aren't responding very well.

It's only been two days
since you started rehabilitation.

There's no need to rush. Take it easy.

Just focus on your rehabilitation
for the next six months.

When will I be able to do surgery again?

It will be possible in a couple of weeks,

but I'll give my final approval
after I look at your hand then.

So don't even think about
holding a scalpel

until I give you the okay.

All right, let's try again.
With more force.

Open.

With greater force.

I thought this only happened to others.

I never thought
I'd see my own child do this.

Mom.

Who knows you've been living like this?

Does Dad know too?

No, I haven't told him yet.

Dad came here
not long after we moved in together.

And people at work?

Nobody at work knows yet either.

Then it's fine.

Go and tell Seo Woojin
to take his stuff away.

Mom.

No matter how much the world changes,

I won't allow you
to live together before marriage.

Mom.

Do you think
I worked so hard to raise you

to see you live like this?

How can you bring such shame
to your parents?

What if rumors get out

that you're living with a guy
while working at a countryside hospital?

How will your dad...

be able to hold his head up high
at the hospital?

And how will I be able to show my face
in front of people?

How can you be this selfish?

Don't you care about your family?

I wanted to be with him.

He's the man I love.

If he truly cared for you and loved you,

he wouldn't have made this decision.

He decides to skip
all procedures and formalities

and irresponsibly start living together?

It's so vulgar I can't even say it.

I decided to do it, not Woojin.

Don't try to protect him.
Pull yourself together!

Putting aside everything else,

I won't back down on this issue.

People don't consider marriage
the event of a lifetime for no reason.

Do you understand?

I thought she was happy
to see me move out.

And yet, she still nitpicks and butts in
on everything.

I'm the one
who's living with him, not her.

Seriously!

I can't even...

There's a possibility that his hand
won't recover to the way it was before.

In particular,
there's a high probability

of permanent disability
in the fourth and fifth digits.

Does Woojin know about this too?

I haven't told him the specifics yet.

He just thinks of it
as the sequelae of surgery for now.

But he'll catch on soon.

The sensation
and the way his fingers move

won't feel the same as before.

He's quite sensitive about his hands,
after all.

How long do you think it'll take
for him to perform surgery again?

Even if he does...

...he won't be as nimble as before.

Darn it.

What are you doing?

You're here.

You got here early.

Here.

These are a change of clothes,
and this is a present.

Ta-da.

What's all this?

It's for your rehabilitation.

I didn't want you to get bored,
so I bought them in every color.

For Monday to Sunday,
every color of the rainbow.

Which color do you want first? Green? Red?

Or yellow?

That looks good on you.

Something happened, didn't it?

No, nothing happened.

Tell me. What is it?

Don't read my mood
without my permission from now on.

I can tell just from your voice.

We'll only text from now on.

You think I won't catch on that way?

Sometimes, I have feelings
I want to keep to myself too.

Don't worry, Eunjae.

I'll be fine.

I'll work hard in physical therapy

and get back into the OR
in good condition.

It might be frustrating for a while,

but I'll overcome it.

I can overcome this much.

I'm the icon of resilience, aren't I?

Should we get married?

Let's just register our marriage.
What do you say?

- Hello.
- Hello.

- Dr. Cha--
- Just leave her be.

She's been like that for a while.

Why? Did something happen?

Who knows?

I asked her twice,

but she's not here right now.

It's as if her soul left her body.

That's how it feels at the moment.

I see.

Why, all of a sudden?

Why are you bringing up marriage like this
out of the blue?

There's no reason. I just want to.

Did we get caught?

Well, it's not exactly like that.

Still,

you can't throw out
the word marriage just like that.

I didn't throw anything out.

That's how it felt to me.

You want to get rid of everything
that's bothering you at once.

You figured you could do that
by getting married

and threw out that word.

So you don't want to?

You don't...

want to marry me?

No.

Not like this.

What did you just say?

I'll give you a free pass
to use Jang Donghwa.

What's that?

It's exactly what it sounds like.
It's a special pass to use me.

I usually don't give this out
to people lightly.

But you did teach me to read ultrasounds,
so I thought I'd repay your kindness.

So what am I supposed to use
this pass for?

You're in a cold war
with Nurse Euntak right now.

And?

And your tactic isn't working.
You're the only one who's distressed.

So?

- So I'll help you.
- But how?

By getting on his nerves.

You'll only talk to me, only eat with me,

and only act friendly with me.

He might be able to act cool
about it a few times, but if it continues,

he will become anxious.

That's when you turn the tables.

That's when you take control
and dominate your relationship.

Game over.

Do you actually think
that will work?

I've played games for over 20 years.

Reading the flow
and carrying out a strategy

is what I do best.

What do you say?

Do you want to see Nurse Euntak's eyes

flashing with jealousy?

And what if they don't?

Then you should break up with him.

It'll mean he doesn't really like you.

If I were to see another guy
hanging around the girl I like,

I don't think I'd be able to stand it.

Then don't hang around me.

- What?
- It's true I'm mad at Euntak,

but it's not right
to test someone's feelings like that.

If you really want to give out
a free pass to use Jang Donghwa,

you should give it to a patient instead.

Then you'd seem a lot cooler.

We have a patient!

What happened to her?

She slipped and fell down the stairs.

According to her neighbor,
she's been showing signs of dementia.

She had a forehead laceration,
but the bleeding was light.

And she has a scratch on her arm
that's about 8 cm long.

Her BP is 150/100, heart rate is 90.

She's having trouble breathing.

And her guardian?

We haven't reached anyone yet.

Goodness.

Doctor.

Please save me.

These people are trying to kidnap me.

Ma'am, this is the hospital.
You came here because you got hurt.

Save me, Doctor.

Please untie me.

I don't want to go to jail.

Take her to bed three.

Okay.

Ma'am, you're okay.

Here we go.

- Lift on one, two, three.
- One, two, three.

One, two, three.

Ma'am, your breathing doesn't sound good.
I'll take a listen.

No!

Go away, you brat!

I don't have money!

What are you trying to take now?

What are you trying to steal, you brat?
Go away.

- Go away!
- Ma'am, calm down.

This is the hospital.

You were hurt.

Brother?

It's me.

It's Junggeum.

Why did you come so late?

Father and Mother waited for so long.

Ma'am.

Brother.

Brother.

We have a patient!

Nurse Euntak, get her on oxygen
and page Dr. Lee.

Okay.

He's a dialysis patient.
We heard he had trouble breathing.

His heart stopped on the way here.

To the hybrid OR, please.

Okay.

- Lift on one, two, three.
- Three.

Take out the gurney.

Let me check the rhythm.

There's no pulse. PEA. Let's switch.

The left arm is used for dialysis.

Start a line in his right arm.

Yes, Doctor.

Let's do an ABG test.

Is the IV not ready yet?

I can't find a vein.

Ms. Eom, do the ABG test.

Okay.

- Let's do an IO.
- Yes, Doctor.

Push epi through this line
once every three minutes.

Yes, Doctor.

Here are the ABG test results.

It's hyperkalemia. His levels are 8.6.

Let's check the rhythm.

Bring calcium gluconate.

There's no pulse. PEA.

How long has it been?

It's been 12 minutes.

Let's check the rhythm.

Okay. He's back.

What was the BST?

It was 190.

Give him half a pack of D50W

mixed with 10 units of regular insulin
for 5 minutes.

After that, give him 10D.

Check his blood sugar
every 30 minutes for 2 hours.

Yes, Doctor.

Get a c-line
and hemodialysis catheter ready.

Arrange for a CRRT
once his vitals are stable.

Yes, Doctor.

Do I seem...

...pretty cool now?

Jang Donghwa free pass.

A bit.

Come on. I was really cool.

- What?
- I was very cool.

Oh, right.

You used your Jang Donghwa free pass.

You are pretty cool.

Hey.

Yes, please lie down.

- Good work today.
- Good work.

Dr. Jung.

You're back.

You did great today.

We heard about the win in court.
I'm so relieved to hear it.

It's nothing big.

She's going to appeal right away.

Is she really going to do that?

She's so harsh!

You even caught her compartment syndrome.

If you hadn't caught it on time
and she had gone elsewhere,

there's no saying
what might've happened to her.

What did Administrator Cha
and Director Park say?

The head of the trauma center
didn't say much.

Director Park went to Master Kim.

He's very worried
we might not get the provincial budget.

Assemblywoman Ko says
she will appeal the court ruling.

If things come to this,
we might not get the provincial budget.

If we don't get the grant this time,

our trauma center

will have a hard time
staying open the following year.

Please have a seat first.
Do you want some coffee?

Master Kim.

If Assemblywoman Ko refuses
to back down like this,

shouldn't we consider

her offer?

What's this?

(Head of The Trauma Center, Cha Jinman)

(Woo Sangmin)

It was your fault.

So you take responsibility.

(Woo Sangmin)

Professor.

I'm sorry.

(Cardiothoracic Surgeon
Woo Sangmin)

Hey. How is someone like you
even a doctor?

You quack!

Professor.

Please help me.

Sangmin!

Sangmin!

I...

Sangmin!

...will take responsibility.

That's not an offer, Director Park.
That's a threat.

If we take up her sweet offer

by turning a blind eye
and acting like we have no choice,

you think we'll get what we want,
don't you?

No way.

She'll see us as pushovers

and start demanding much more than that.

But the current situation--

I know it's hard.

But, Director Park,

when did we ever have it easy?

We've always...

faced hardships and crises.

It has always been hard.

Still, we never once tried

to dodge those hardships like cowards.

We always tried to find a way
to break through it,

and that's how we got here.

If we had compromised

in a way that wasn't right,

Doldam Hospital as it is now...

wouldn't be here.

Do you mean you will take on any risk?

I mean that no threats

should be able to sway us.

A leader is someone

who must fight the big waves upfront.

That's how other people
don't feel anxious or get swayed.

I hope that...

you become that kind of leader.

(Consultation room 2)

Ms. Oh.

Yes, Professor.

I want to check the CCTV
in the hall outside my office.

Who can I ask?

What is this about?

I think someone came into my room
without permission.

You can always ask me for such things.

Let's take a look.

(Doldam Hospital Trauma Center)

(Head of trauma center's office)

(Head of trauma center's office)

Nothing looks out of the ordinary so far.

I'll fast-forward it a little.

Wait, there.

He's going into your room.

I don't think
he's carrying anything out.

If you tell me what exactly you lost--

Ms. Oh.

Do you recognize who that is?

I'm not sure.

Will we have to call the police for this?

No, that won't be necessary.

Things are uneasy around here
with the court case and all.

No need for the police.

But I'd like to see
the doctors' personnel records.

Personnel records?

I don't need everyone's files.

Just those who went to Hankuk University.

The faster I get them, the better.

Yes, Professor Cha.

What do you think he means

when he says he only wants the files
of those who went to Hankuk University?

It must mean he has a hunch.

What can I help with?

Dr. Ung.

She's a patient with dementia.

Her X-rays show
cardiomegaly and pulmonary edema.

Current BP is 140/90 and saturation is 92.

She must've had a hard time breathing.

She seemed to be in bad condition,
so I had her moved to the hybrid OR.

Her extremities are pale,

and dorsalis pedis pulse
is weak on both sides.

I suspect it might be Buerger's disease.

Let's restrict fluids for now

and remove the water from her lungs
with furosemide first.

Nurse Euntak,
let's switch the oxygen to high flow.

Make it 0.4 at 40 liters.

Yes, Doctor.

Brother. Where are you going now?

Just stay here. Don't go.

I'll be right back
for your treatment, ma'am.

Don't go.

Ma'am.

We'll make it easier for you to breathe.

The nurse here will give you a shot.
Please wait a little.

- Honey.
- Pardon?

What brings you here?

Why have you gotten so young?

Are you perhaps

- seeing another woman?
- No. What?

Tell me.

Go ahead and tell me.

I'm sorry.

It's fine. Just tell me.

It's fine. Tell me.

Come on.

- I'm sorry.
- But...

Let's get the high flow ready.

Yes, Doctor.

- Ms. Eom.
- Yes?

Have we still not heard
from the elderly lady's guardian?

No. She has two sons and a daughter,
but no one is picking up.

Paramedic Heo said he asked
the lady's next-door neighbor.

It's been years since her kids visited.

What do we do?

This is my husband.

It's nice to meet you.

- Hello.
- Isn't he handsome?

Of course.

He's more handsome than you.

(Personnel records)

(Name: Lee Seonung)

(Family Relations)

(Moosung High School
Hankuk University)

(Head of The Trauma Center, Cha Jinman)

(Consultation room 2)

No way.

(Name: Lee Seonung)

Here is the information you asked for.

Everything you asked for is inside.

You're sure you were discreet?

Of course, Director.

Don't worry.

You're here.

Yes.

Do you want one? I have an extra.

No, I'm fine.

You can have it.

Should I unwrap it for you?

Oh, okay then.

I'll step out to the ER for a minute.

Okay.

Darn, it's full of ice.

(Trauma Center)

(Mom)

Whose call is it?

Is it Seo Woojin?

No, it's not.

Why? Did you have a fight?

It's not like that.

Insu.

Do you regret getting married?

No, I don't regret the marriage itself

because I did gain a lot of joy
after getting married.

To be honest,

there were more moments
that were like blessings.

Just like our Byeol.

Then why did you end up separated?

I used to...

want to live an average life.

Nothing too much or too little.

I wanted just enough to be satisfied.

But...

after I came to Doldam Hospital,

I kept dreaming of things.

Once I started dreaming,

I kept drifting away from reality.

That's how things ended up like this.

Did you ever ask her to come to live here?

I don't even have to ask.

My wife was born and raised in Seoul.

She's the kind of woman
who is terrified of leaving Seoul.

She would never move
to the boondocks like this place.

Did you ask her?

Why should I
when it's obvious what she will say?

You should still ask her at least once.

Tell her you want to be with her.

Be honest.

(Mom)

Yes, come in.

Mm.

I was organizing
some of my stuff that arrived late.

I needed a helping hand
as there are just so many files.

Can I ask you to help out?

Yes, of course. What should I do first?

First, go through the ones on the table.

Research materials should be separated

into published and unpublished ones.

And as for the surgery cases,

separate the open heart cases
from the VATS cases.

- Yes, Professor.
- Okay.

Which class were you in?

I entered school in 2009.

Then you must know

Dr. Woo Sangmin.

That's right.

I remember there was another applicant
for CT surgery besides Sangmin.

That must've been you, Dr. Lee.

Yes, Professor.

You could've done a military fellowship,
but you just served as a regular soldier.

Was there a particular reason?

I just thought...

it would be better
to get my military service over with.

I see.

Right.

Can you hand me that green file there?

No, not that.

The one on your left.

Right, of course.

I wasn't sure,

but it was you.

I remember you now.

That walk.

Where have I seen it before?

Ms. Oh, what are you doing?

Goodness, Dr. Seo.

What brings you to the trauma center?
We didn't call you.

Just because.
I had some time, so I decided to drop by.

Dr. Cha should be in the medical office.
You should go upstairs.

What were you looking at?

The man wearing the paper bag.

There was someone

who snuck into
the head of the trauma center's office.

He was wearing that on his head.

But there's something
strangely familiar about the way he walks.

I'm sure I've seen it before.

It was your doing.

- Pardon?
- Who made you do it?

Did Woo Sangmin's mother make you do it?

What do you mean?

Even so,

playing a joke with a dead friend's name

seems to be crossing the line.

- Professor.
- If not,

were you still holding a grudge
because of what happened three years ago?

Pardon?

What do you mean, I should leave?

(Professor Cha Jinman)

We can no longer
let you attend our school.

But I thought...

there were still spots available
in CT surgery.

Unfortunately,

I can't allow someone with grounds
for disqualification to enter the OR.

The moment I accept you into my team,
we will all have to take on the risk.

I don't have
any reason or necessity to do that.

Throughout my residency,

I finished the practical training
with great scores.

I worked really hard.

Anyone can work hard.

Anyone works to death

to become a doctor.

- Professor...
- It's already been decided.

I won't change my mind.

So you should go...

look for a position elsewhere.

Not here.

Even still,
how dare you threaten me like this?

Do you think
this is acceptable behavior from a doctor?

I don't know what that is,
but I didn't do it.

I've never been to your office.

Are you going to keep feigning innocence?

Do you want...

to take this to its end?

Director Park. It's me, Cha Jinman.

Someone snuck into my office today.

I just caught the culprit.

It turns out...

he had grounds for disqualification.

Yes.

It's Dr. Lee Seonung.

What do you mean?

Lee Seonung snuck into
the head of the trauma center's room?

Yes, I checked the CCTV
with Administrator Cha.

He even wore a bag on his head.

He was determined to sneak in.

I don't know what he stole,

but this is certainly a serious situation.

So where's Seonung now?

What do you think?
Administrator Cha is so angry right now.

He took Lee Seonung
to see the director right away.

Let's talk outside.
It's a long story.

Okay.

What's up with those two?

I know, right?
I'm not sure what's going on.

(Doldam Hospital Trauma Center)

What's up with Dr. Ung?

What does this mean?

It says Dr. Ung snuck into

the head of the trauma center's office
with a bag over his head.

Looks like
he's been caught on CCTV like that.

What? Dr. Ung wore a paper bag
over his head? Why?

What's going on?

What's the situation?

I was on my way
to meet Director Park now.

You should come up too
if you want to know.

Wait.

Were you the one...

who hired Lee Seonung?

You should talk to me first
before you blow this out of proportion.

No.

My opinion is certain and clear.

Right now,

what we need is a decision,
not a discussion.

(Hope, Love, Service)

(Treatment from the Heart)

It feels as though he is determined
to see things through to the end.

Don't you think so?

But why on earth did he do that?

Why would Dr. Lee wear a bag over his head

to go into Cha Jinman's office?

Did he steal something?

No, it didn't seem that way.

If not, did he go in and write something?

"Professor Cha, you're dumb."

"Neener."

Dr. Jung.

Sorry.

I'm not sure about the details,

but maybe it has something to do
with the incident from three years ago?

Well, you know.

A CT surgery resident at Hankuk University
jumped to his death then.

What about it?

What does that incident
have to do with this incident?

I don't know if I should say this, but--

Then just don't say it.

Well, you know,
there were rumors back then,

that Professor Cha was responsible
for that resident's death.

I'm sure you all knew that.

That's because it's only natural

for people to discuss
who was responsible when a resident dies.

It was about a case
where a patient had died.

I heard Professor Cha was no joke
after it resulted in them going to court.

He told the resident
to take responsibility

as it was his fault.

He blamed the guy for everything,
or something like that.

Anyway, he ended his own life
because of that pressure.

No way. Seriously?

He really did.

But what does that
have to do with Dr. Ung?

Well,

the resident who died back then

and Dr. Ung...

The two were colleagues in school.

Isn't it very suspicious?

Is it just me? Don't you feel the same?

Goodness.

I'll go.

She must've heard everything.

What do we do?

Cha Eunjae.

Cha Eunjae!

Cha Eunjae isn't here right now.

- I have to say something.
- Cha Eunjae doesn't.

You can't just leave like this.

Then what should I do?

Should I have stayed and listened,
as if nothing was wrong?

About my dad who blamed his student
and drove him to his death?

I love my dad.

And I respect him
more than anyone else in the world.

I am proud of my dad
like he's a decorated hero.

No matter what anyone says,
he's my dad. Do you get that?

Professor Cha.

Can you please explain?

What is this situation right now?

I ask that you dismiss Dr. Lee Seonung
from Doldam Hospital as of today.

What's your reason?

I was threatened.

Threatened?

Threatened about what?

It's a fountain pen that I gave
to a resident named Woo Sangmin.

He was going through a lawsuit.

He couldn't bear the pressure

and ended his own life.

The responsibility for his suicide...

fell onto me, his professor in charge.

And the dead resident's mother...

still resents me, saying it's my fault.

It's not like I killed a patient.

It happened because he made a mistake

while starting a c-line.

I taught him over and over,

but that fool couldn't do
that simple work.

There's no way that I'm fine...

with the death of my student.

And there's no way it doesn't hurt me.

But then,

that punk put that fountain pen
right under my nose.

If this isn't a threat, then what is it?

Contempt? Scorn?

Deceit? Ridicule?

Whatever it is,

I have no intention of forgiving him.

I'm still the professor who taught him.

But he wore a bag over his head

to sneak into my office
and leave that thing.

I will not let him make a fool out of me!

Dr. Lee Seonung.

Did you really do it?

I'm asking if you did this.

No.

I did not do this.

I...

never went into that office.

(Doldam Hospital Trauma Center)

Ms. Oh.

Let me borrow this.

Sandwich.

Ah...

I talked so much that I'm already hungry.

That scared me.

Are you trying
to break the door down or what?

(Doldam Hospital Trauma Center)

Do you perhaps know...

who this is?

No, I don't.

Who is this?

What was the reason?

If Dr. Lee Seonung really did bring

this fountain pen as you say he did,

he would have to have a clear reason.

What reason would he have

to threaten you now, after all that time?

That must be because I know
the grounds for his disqualification.

Could you tell us what that is?

Dr. Lee has...

a red-green color vision deficiency.

But why is that a problem?

It doesn't say anywhere
that color vision deficiency

is grounds for disqualification.

Are you seriously asking that
when you know what it means to be unable

to distinguish reds and greens in an OR?

Dr. Lee has already pulled off
a successful femoral artery repair.

If he can do
that level of arterial surgery,

I don't see how it will be a problem
in other surgeries too. Am I wrong?

This is an ethical issue as well.

He hid the fact
that he has color vision deficiency.

No, he didn't hide it.

Isn't that right, Master Kim?

Yes, that's right.

He didn't hide it.

It says here you have dyschromatopsia.

Yes, I have red-green
color vision deficiency.

Is that perhaps a problem?

No, not really.

I believe they make
good corrective lenses these days too.

Of course.

And he didn't hide this fact
from Dr. Bae Munjeong either.

Yes, he told me about that
before we went into surgery that day.

And what did you tell him?

He may not be able to tell apart colors,

but he can tell apart the situation.

I told him it wouldn't be that big a deal.

Dr. Lee was honest with us.

And we didn't think it was a big issue.

But why did you think
that was a reason for him to threaten you?

That's because this fountain pen--

And just look at what was caught on CCTV.

Dr. Lee is denying it was him so strongly,

and we're not even sure
who the man in the bag was.

So why do you insist so strongly

that it was Dr. Lee?

I am very curious about...

why you're doing this.

Is it perhaps...

because you feel uncomfortable
about Dr. Lee Seonung

since he knows about Woo Sangmin?

What does that mean?

I'm asking you
if you orchestrated this whole situation

to get him kicked out...

of Doldam Hospital.

(Hope, Love, Service)

Dr. Lee, you may go now.

Here at Doldam Hospital,
no disability can hold you back,

as long as you have the will
to circumvent it.

So cheer up.

Thank you.

I feel like I faced quite a big wave.

What did you think?

I told you, it wasn't me!

Then what is this bag?

I don't know either.
Why are you asking me?

I'm not the only person
who had sandwiches from here!

It wasn't me!

I'm saying we should make a deal.

I must see
Professor Cha leave this trauma center.

What do you say?

Will you take this deal?

Fine.

If a person gets too upset and angry,

one could do that.

One's thoughts might get out of control.

But as time goes by,

nothing is more foolish

than paying back anger with anger.

With time, you will also regret

the offer you just made.

Are you rejecting my offer?

That's right, I am.

I don't make deals over people,
no matter the circumstances.

I believe no one's life
deserves to be treated that way.

I cannot accept it.

(Head of The Trauma Center, Cha Jinman)

(Korea, A Just Country
Gangwon-Do, A Great Place To Live)

Ms. Eom.

Did you see the elderly lady patient?

What? No, I didn't.

(Dr. Romantic 3)

So you're going to kick Cha Jinman out

and accept Assemblywoman Ko's deal?

This isn't about
what's right or wrong, Master Kim.

I should step down?

This is the life I chose.

It feels lonely, doesn't it?

But you're doing a great job.

Is this also the romance
that Bu Yongju talks about?

- It's just my dream.
- Your dream?

Who are you?

Someone more intense than me.
