- You should do it.- Can I...

ask why you trust me to this extent?

I am one who's trying to survive no matter what.

You are one who's trying to save people no matter what.

All doctors try their best to save their patients, Mr. Chairman.

Even if hundreds of millions are at stake?

Do you think that's still the case?

- Pardon? - So,

who's the doctor-in-charge? Is he capable?

I'm not sure if you remember him.

He worked in Geodae Hospital at one time, under the name of Boo Yong Joo.

Boo Yong Joo.

Do you mean that crazy guy?

That's right. That crazy guy.

The era of subordination. Rather than respecting others for their ability and uniqueness,

the world that equalizes them and puts them on a scale by their function and usefulness.

Dr. Boo Yong Joo, please answer the following questions.

Have you had your juniors take your place in surgery?

Two table deaths prior to the latest event with Jang Hyun Joo,

were the results of surgery done by proxy. This is the report I received, is that correct?

That I ordered them?

Did I order you to do those surgeries?

Why are you not saying anything?

Did I ever order any of you to stand in for those surgeries?

Be quiet, Dr. Boo Yong Joo. I ask the questions!

You answer the questions.

A so-called elite group created by a manual.

And the world that belongs to the people who know how to effectively control that group.

To learn that the result of your work at Geodae Hospital has been

illegal and substandard,

it's humiliating as the one-in-charge of administration of the hospital.

I'm sorry, but ask someone else to do that surgery.

He is the next presidential candidate.

Let's make time this week for the surgery.

I have a wait list of people who have waited for a minimum of one month

and others for as long as 3 to 4 months for a surgery.

I will do the surgery on them first.

In the order of their wait time.

Acting haughty and doing whatever you want,

as long as you make money and make a name for yourself, do the ethics and morals as a doctor

not matter at all?

The ones who pushed me into this place and applauding me...

- were all of you!- We had no idea that you were

- such a shameless, immoral man.

Are all these patients who received surgeries by proxies without my knowledge?

You are so famous and busy already.

What were we supposed to do?

Everyone coming to our hospital was asking for you.

Still, how can you deceive patients when I did not do the surgery?

If you are worried something might go wrong,

don't worry too much.

The hospital administration will cover everything up.

You bastard. Who told you to do that surgery? Huh?

Huh? Who is it?!

Since we cannot tolerate Dr. Boo Yong Joo's actions any longer.

We will hereby file an official notice with the Hospital Association and the Medical Professional Association.

To make sure you will not be able to perform any function as a physician.

We will conduct accordingly.

That is the final decision of the Hospital Board.

The loyalty to the faction has become the highest virtue.

Those capable who have faith are ruthlessly discarded.

This is how strange our time has become.

That's fine. Let's just go to the hotel for today.

- And the Chairman? - Well, we will meet tomorrow.

He's probably sleeping anyway.

Chapter 15: Cornered Stone Syndrome.

Good Morning.

It is? Good for you.

Are you not feeling well?

The one asking the question is looking to be in a very good mood. Why would that be?

Well, it's just a good morning you know.

Hello, good morning.

You're here?

Yeah, hi.

Oh my, so suffocating. Why is it so hot?

It must be warming up. It does feel a little hot.

I need to go to the staff room.

I have things to do in the ER.

- Well, then. - Yeah, then.

- I'm this way. - Oh, I'm this way.

It's hot?

It's -2 outside. What are they...

A patient with stomach pain, Doctor.

The patients's name is Hwang Gi Soo.

He's a man of 45 years of age. He hasn't vomited or had diarrhea but he has a pain in the stomach and is feeling chilled.

His current vitals are 110/80, 120. HIs temperature is 39.5.

One moment.

You've even checked his gallstone history?

Yes, just in case that's a possibility.

But there was nothing like that in his checkup earlier this year.

You did the check up meticulously, well done.

You said your stomach hurts a lot. Since when has it been that way?

Since a month ago,

I've had pain in my stomach on and off.

But it was really painful yesterday morning.

Since last night, I've had body aches all over like a flu

and I have fever.

Hold on, I will elevate your knees.

I will touch your stomach a bit.

- Does it hurt if I press on this? - Yes, it hurts.

- Then, how about here? - Ah, that hurts the most.

Do you drink alcohol often?

About once or twice a week?

Has your stomach felt acidic lately?

Yes, lately.

Alright. First of all, we will do a test.

It looks like you have an inflammation in your stomach, so we will have a CT scan taken.

Doctor, please...

can you do something to lessen the pain?

Alright.

Give him one ampule of tramadol through IV and get his amylase lipase

- for the OP lab and get an abdomen CT scan, too. - Yes, Doctor.

I will take him to the CT scan.

Oh, you scared me.

- Did you succeed? - Huh?

The necklace I mean.

Oh, well.

Congratulations Doctor Kang Dong Joo. What did I tell you?

I told you it would work. I don't mean to brag but...

I have a good sense for that sort of thing.

Ah, yes.

Did you personally put the necklace on for her?

- Did I have to?- Oh my goodness.

How could you miss something so basic?

Miss it?

Why would men spend all that money to buy such gifts for women?

Don't you think there is something very meaningful in such actions for men?

Rings are for touching the hands of a woman.

Necklaces are for embracing a woman.

Like this.

Is that so?

So, did Dr. Yoon wear the necklace to work?

No, I did not really check, but...

Oh dear, dear. If it's the case that she did not wear it,

It could only mean one of two things. Either she didn't like the necklace,

or didn't like the person who gave her the necklace.

I don't think that is it.

Uh huh. Don't let your guard down.

Dr. Kang, can you check on the patient in bed #3?

Yes, I will.

What do you think you are doing right now Chief Jang?

You don't have to worry about it. I was just playing around because I was jealous.

You're jealous, why?

Because I failed, yet he succeeded. I will take my leave now.

Yeah, what's up?

Did you wear the necklace I gave you today?

Why are you asking that?

You didn't wear it?

I'm busy right now. I have to do my rounds.

Just tell me if you wore it or not.

Look here, Doctor Kang. It's working hours now. Let's separate our private and personal matters, yes?

S-Sunbae.

What is this? Did she really not wear it?

Hello, Chairman, good...

morning.

- His daughter? - Yes.

The Chairman's daughter just arrived now.

You might know her.

She was once the director of business strategy of Geodae Hospital.

Stop being stubborn and just leave the hospital, Father.

What unsuitable things are you saying?

Are you telling a sick patient to discharge from the hospital?

Just readmit into a proper hospital with a proper doctor this time.

Why did you come here?

Why are you bothering me instead of raising your kids in Florida?

Who called you here? Director Do?

It's not even any other surgery. It is artificial heart surgery.

How could I stay still when you're going to do it in a hospital that isn't even ranked well?

You are the Chairman of the Foundation on top of that.

If something happens to the Chairman of the Geodae Hospital Foundation,

while getting an artificial heart transplant in an unspeakable branch hospital like this,

what will become of the hospital's image?

No question of a rapid rumor about your lack of judgment,

and you'll definitely hear people saying that you're senile.

What? Senile?

If you don't like hearing that, go to Seoul with me.

I'll bring the papers for discharge.

Excuse me.

You need consent from the doctor in charge to be discharged.

What are you going on about?

If a patient is to be discharged,

the doctor-in-charge has to give permission for that to happen.

I am a board member of this hospital. No matter which end you look at it,

I have much more power compared to you.

Do you understand?

Mr. Boo Yong Joo?

What are you doing here right now?

What else would a doctor be doing in a hospital?

I'm treating the patients.

You've already been thrown out from the business.

How dare you robe yourself in a gown and act like a doctor?

Legally, I have not done anything that would relieve me of my medical privilege,

throwing me out of the business was something that was fabricated by your people.

So basically, you want to make a comeback

through the likes of Chairman Shin?

I know that he's a rich old man, but

I had no idea he was the Chairman of this hospital foundation.

Nor did I know that he was your father.

I'm just getting consecutively surprised here.

I will assist my father back to the main hospital right now.

Did Chairman Shin allow you to do that?

I made the decisions as his guardian.

I don't want to waste any time with a doctor like you to be in charge of my father.

"A doctor like me?"

- What does that mean exactly? - What?

You need to clearly define that for me.

I really don't understand what you're saying.

Properly answer me one time.

What exactly "a doctor like me" means.

Look here! Mr. Bu Young Ju!

In here, everyone calls me "Master Kim."

"Master Kim."

You may think you can hide your past by changing your name but-

I'm not trying to hide it.

Let's just say it's something like self-reflecting.

For being intoxicated by your words once

and living crazily towards the same things as you guys.

It's like a self-reflection of me back then.

Timing and subtitles brought to you by The Romantic Doctors ♡ @ Viki

- The Chairman's daughter? - Yes.

She said she was far above us in any way whichever way we looked at it.

She seemed to have a terrible past with the Master as well.

Do you know anything about it?

I already told you.

I only met Master Kim after he left Geodae Hospital.

But you've spent so much time with him.

You didn't hear even the smallest bit of information about it?

I haven't. Never.

What is it?

Are you dating Doctor Kang by any chance?

Wh-Who said that? Is that what that jerk Kang Dong Joo is saying?

No, it's Chief Administrator Jang's presumption.

He says your relationship with him seems a bit different lately.

- Is that true? - No, it's not.

It's not. Seriously.

Oh, I see.

It's true, Head Nurse Oh!

Please believe me. You have to believe me.

Alright.

- Yeon Hwa. - Yes.

- Where is Kang Dong Joo? - He's in the hybrid room.

What do you think it is?

From what I see, I think it's from the pancreas tail.

It seems like that to you, too?

I don't think it's the pancreas.

Really, you think it's not?

There is abscess, but the origin... it seems like it's originating from the bowel.

From the bowel? Does it look like that to you, Doctor Do In Bum?

Should I call Master Kim?

Look here Doctor Kang Dong Joo, why call Master Kim when I'm here.

I didn't mean it that way, but if the scan is ambiguous, aren't we supposed to listen to another person's opinion?

You are speaking up too much and rebelling all the time these days.

Are you choosing to be disrespectful because he favors you?

Technically speaking, I don't think he's ever favored me before, though.

If you have eyes, look correctly!

How does this look like the pancreas, this is definitely the bowel!

- But right here, it's connecte— - Well, look at you.

Are you schooling a chief surgeon right now?

I'm just telling you my opinion.

- It looks like a bowel at first but if...- That's why it's a bowel origin (originates from the bowel).

How can this be pancreas tail?

Don't you agree, Doctor Do In Bum?

Yes, it seems that way to me, too.

- Chief Surgeon— - Doctor, the patient's blood pressure is dropping. It's currently at 80/40.

Prepare the T-line at 500cc, full drop, mix 30cc of norepinephrine and give him at 10cc.

Prepare the poly, too.

Forget it. Don't butt in, you.

Prepare C-line at 500cc, full drop,

and what was it? Mix 30cc of norepinephrine and give him at 10cc. And prepare poly, as well.

And Dr. Do In Bum will be in charge of this patient.

It's my patient, Chief.

I won't leave a patient to a Doctor who can't even read a CT properly.

Get a c-line prepared and move the patient to the operation room after.

Yes, I understand.

Get me some antibiotics while I grab the c-line.

Alright.

Looks like Doctor Kang Dong Joo is really angry.

It seems that way, doesn't it.

- Doctor Woo Yeon Hwa. - Yes, Doctor.

- Have you assisted for a surgery before? - Yes, I have.

That's great. You will be assisting this surgery, Doctor Woo Yeon Hwa. See you in the OR in ten minutes.

No matter how I see it, it's definitely the pancreas though.

Sunbae, try knocking.

What was that with Chief Surgeon Song? Why did you pick a fight with him?

It's just... well, we had a difference in opinions.

Anyway, Kang Dong Joo.

Did you tell Chief Jang some weird things?

What do you mean?

That we are dating, or something similar to that.

Well, I did not say something exactly like that.

Then why did Head Nurse Oh say that?

What did she ask you?

She asked if you and I were dating, out of the blue.

Didn't you act suspiciously?

No, I didn't. I'm very precise and responsible in that area.

How come... you didn't wear the necklace?

Why are you all asking me?

I'm just checking to see if we are an item from yesterday or not.

It's because of this that I can't start anything with you.

What... are you saying we haven't even started?

Then what was it that we did yesterday?

Did we do something yesterday?

Do you not remember?

Wow... this won't do.

- I'll have to do it again.- Look, look at this.

What, what, what did I do?

You make it so obvious like this so how can I start anything with you?

Make it obvious? Me? No way. Do you know what a poker face I am?

Haven't you heard of the "poker face Kang"?

Poker face, my ass. It's written all over your face.

Why not? Why don't you just go and tell everyone at Doldam?

Can I do that?

Ah!

You... promise me.

What?

You will be clear about private and official business at the hospital.

I am Senior Yoon Seo Jung as I have been all along and you are just Dr. Kang Dong Joo.

Just like we have been. No personal emotions during work hours.

Tidy and cool. As colleagues.

Let's act like that, okay?

Okay. If I keep that promise, it will be day one (of dating) from today?

Depends on how you do.

Depends on how I do? Then when do we start our day one?

Depending on how you do. Back to work.

I love you.

You want to die?

Look at that. You need a poker face!

You will let everyone at Doldam know, looking like that.

Stop that.

Stop what, what? Ah, that "I love you?"

Ah, honestly.

Ah, you don't want me to say "I love you?"

- Don't, don't, don't.- I got it. I love you.

- Ah, don't don't.- I got it, I will never say going forward, "I love you."

"I love you." I love you.

I love you.

Oh, yah. Please don't. Don't.

Je t'aime (French). Aishiteru (Japanese).

I love you.

I love you.

What is it that you are after? A comeback to Geodae Hospital?

Aren't you curious about the Chairman at all?

Regretfully, Geodae Hospital will be Director Do's world for a while.

He will be re-appointed with 99% votes at the next board meeting.

Even if you came back, we have no position for you.

Mr. Chairman's condition is a lot worse than I thought.

You want to succeed in the heart transplant surgery, no matter what.

So that you could get a dramatic reverse of some kind.

You know how to read a CT scan, right? You went to med school I believe.

Whose scan is that?

It's Chairman Shin's.

As you can see, he is in the final stage of lung cancer.

Lung cancer?

Yes. That's how the CT scan shows.

How about treatment? Is it not possible?

There are many kinds of lung cancer, Mr. Chairman.

We need to do a biopsy first to see what kind of cancer this is.

Then we will look for treatment options.

Ah, really.

If I don't get treatment, how long do I have?

Three months, or less, Mr. Chairman.

Unrelated to the heart, you mean?

Yes.

So?

What do you propose that we do?

There is not a lot a doctor can do.

Not a lot of suggestions for options either.

Yeon Hwa!

Are you going into a surgery?

The abscess patient, by chance?

Yes, Dr. Do In Bum asked me to be an assistant.

Ah, really?

Excuse me...

What's this?

Uh? I'm here to assist.

I asked Yeon Hwa.

Ah, she got tied up with something so I'm here instead.

It's okay, right?

Timing and subtitles brought to you by The Romantic Doctors ♡ @ Viki

How are you doing the surgery?

It's peritoneal abscess. And I think it's originated in the bowel so I will do a bowel resection.

Okay.

Then, we will begin.

Scalpel.

Doctor.

Dr. Kang Dong Joo asked me to deliver this to you.

Please check the CT scan for patient, Hwang Gi Soo.

Where is Kang Dong Joo now?

He's in Patient Hwang Gi Soo's surgery.

It's an abscess. Do In Bum thinks it's originated in the bowel, but...

Kang Dong Joo thinks it's from the pancreas tail.

[Hwang Gi Soo]

It's a bowel origin.

The bowel looks okay to me.

I will check the pancreas.

- I will do an omentectomy.- A pad.

Bovie.

Retractor.

It's pancreas tail.

Aigoo, Aigoo, is that right?

I will call you back, Madame Oh.

- What's up? - The abscess patient, Hwang Gi Soo.

He's being operated on for a bowel origin.

That's because Dr. Do In Bum...

Kang Dong Joo's opinion was different so why did you ignore it?

Did I?

I can't remember well.

You were there and saw the CT scan with your own eyes.

Did you not at all think that it could be the pancreas tail?

No, I thought so at first but Dr. Do In Bum

was certain it was a bowel origin.

If two fellows had different opinions you should have re-looked at it with a healthy skepticism

as the Chief Surgeon!

But all you were doing was being a splitter?

Why are you being like this?

I know how to read a CT scan.

My opinion was the same as Do In Bum so that's how we made the decision.

How can you insult me this way?

[Do In Bum]

Yes, Dr. Do In Bum, what's going on?

In checking it in the field, we see that it's not a bowel origin.

Really? Then what is it?

It's on the pancreas tail.

Ah, I see. That's possible.

Surgeries are such that when you actually go in, things can look different from what was suspected.

Don't panic, a part of surgeon's skill is to respond to the situation at hand.

So, what should I do now?

Ah, have you ever done a distal pacreastectomy before?

Yes, once. I've also assisted a few times.

That's good that you've done it before.

Show us your skills through this surgery again.

I'll come immediately if a problem arises, so don't worry.

Yeah, okay, okay.

So it was the pancreas.

Is it true?

You've really done a distal pancreatectomy before?

Why? Do you think I'm lying?

You lied with Boerhaave, last time.

From this moment on, we will go ahead with a distal pancreatectomy.

I will begin with a dissection.

Forceps.

Bovie.

Please call Chief Surgeon Song again.

Yes.

What are you doing? Are you going to answer your phone?

It's a number I don't know. I'll call back later.

[Do In Bum]

What is it?

Tell me what the problem is.

Doctor Do In Bum is in the midst of performing a distal pancreatectomy.

And?

You tell him what the problem is.

I called to ask if we are supposed to remove the spleen along with the pancreas during a distal pancreatectomy.

He said that he called to ask. Tell him now.

Of course, of course. You have to remove it together.

Why? Is there a problem?

I'm having a problem with the detachment of the spleen artery.

I feel like it will burst if I touch the wrong place.

Ah, I see. Gosh, what should we do?

What do you mean what? You should head over to the operation room.

Who? Me?

Then should I go in?

I got it. Wait a moment, Doctor Do In Bum. I'll head in now.

Thank you.

What a pathetic bastard.

Have you heard of a spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy?

I have,

but I have no experience with it.

In that case, then feel honored to be here. Look closely at what I do.

Forceps.

Bovie.

Because of anatomical position,

when removing end-point of pancreas, you remove the spleen as well.

But there are reports that if the spleen is removed, the patient's immunity is lowered,

so if the lesion is localized to the pancreas, trying to leave the spleen in is the trend.

I thought you'd stopped operating but you are not doing so badly.

Of course. I am Geodae Hospital's Chief Surgeon.

I'm about done now.

You detach it like this and just cut the end of the pancreas.

Done.

How was it? Clean, no?

Yes.

What is this? Why is it...?

The splenic artery seems to be damaged.

Pads.

Clamp. Can you see where it's bleeding?

I can't secure a clear view.

Give me the clamp back.

Suction. One more!

Irrigation.

Suction!

I got it, I got it. I found it.

This isn't going to work. I will have to remove the spleen.

Please clean it.

Wait a moment.

What do you mean wait?

What are you doing? Are you not going to move?

There is a small tear in the splenic artery.

If we just suture this, we could save the spleen.

Would it be fine if I do it?

What are you doing? This is my surgery, why are you trying to take over?

If you have confidence, then try!

You said you've done it before.

If anything goes wrong, it's all yours to blame. Are you still willing to do it?

You really are consistent.

You look for someone to blame at the worst moments.

Stop spurting nonsense, you bastard! So are you doing it or not?

Lupe.

Okay.

#5 prolene.

Doctor Kang.

Please give it to me.

Focus.

Cut.

Timing and subtitles brought to you by The Romantic Doctors ♡ @ Viki

Okay.

Cut.

I'm going to release it.

Irrigation.

There is no bleeding. I think the spleen will be fine like this.

Should I finish it?

Hey, Do In Bum!

Until when are you going to lie?

What are you talking about?

Even today. You've never done a distal pancreatectomy before!

Isn't it normal that we switch positions?

It was my surgery. I decided that I would be fully capable of performing the surgery

and I've done many simulations through internet videos.

Dude! Do you think a video simulation is the same as the real surgery?

I've always practiced like that.

If not, then how would I get a taste of all of those surgeries?

This irresponsible bastard.

A surgeon would not be perfected if one doesn't get experience using those measures.

No matter what, the moment we open the patient's stomach, you and I both don't know what will happen.

So? Are you saying that you're going to accumulate your experience through lying?

You just had some luck with taking care of the spleen. Don't boast about it.

As for you, I really hope that you don't handle the scalpel like that again.

You do it one more time and I will make an official report of your problem.

You coward.

Hey. Hey!

This bastard!

Let me go, you bastard.

Let go. Hey, let go!

Let go. Ah!

Bring your father here, you bastard.

Mr. Goo.

Let go.

Let me go. Let me go!

Hey!

Please stop, doctors.

Let go.

Really? They fought again?

Dr. Dong Joo looked cool in the surgery earlier.

Which Dr. Do In Bum shrunk a bit.

Kang Dong Joo was cool? How?

When he was closing up the blood vessel,

I though Master Kim was there.

It really felt similar.

"Now, focus.

Cut."

Kang Dong Joo imitated Master Kim?

He wasn't imitating, he really operated well.

He's behind in technics but he looked similar.

What's this? You were always saying how boastful Master Kim was.

As the saying goes, 'you learn by cursing' and 'you can get close from being annoyed.'

So where are the two fighters?

What is it this time? What were you fighting about?

You won't talk?

I got angry because he intervened in my surgery.

I will be careful to not have it happen again.

What about you Kang Dong Joo? Have you nothing to say?

No, I don't.

Okay.

The one who has nothing to say can leave.

I heard you were fighting again?

Hitting each other like dogs.

When he hit me first, was I supposed to just stand there?

Why are you two like this?

You are of the same age, why can't you be friends with each other?

You two are both prickly and difficult and have no friends.

What do you mean? I have lots of friends.

Uh, is that why you've had not one friend visiting

since you've been here?

That's because everyone's busy working and all.

It's the same for you, too.

Who has no friends?

Nurse Um, Nurse Jeong, Nurse Eun Tak.

Right, and Chief Nurse and Dr. Nam, sometimes.

We drink beer together.

If you hang out together you are friends.

Ah, if you hang out then you are friends.

Then the trees behind the hospital and birds that sing, they are all friends then.

I will go off now.

You can't just go.

Didn't you come because you were worried about me?

Make sure to put ointment on the cut?

I love you.

I told you not to do that.

Ah this, this.

That's enough. You should go now.

Right. Enough with the grown ups beating up on each other.

I told you that Do In Bum that bastard threw the first punch.

That's because of how annoying you must have been.

I know him and he's not one to throw a punch for no reason.

Do In Bum's never touched dirt with his own hands.

Are you taking Do In Bum's side right now?

Enough! Let's be careful from now on.

A hospital is not a boxing ring or anything.

Their acting is rather amateur.

What is it, tell me.

Why do you continue being angry?

Me?

I've not been.

I've never gotten along with Kang Dong Joo.

And then he intercepted my surgery,

so I got angry a bit.

So you won't tell the truth till the end.

Or do you not know

how to tell the truth at all?

- Pardon?- That's enough. You can leave.

Chairman Shin's surgery...

probably will not happen.

He has terminal lung cancer.

Go tell your father what I said.

What do you mean?

Isn't that why you are here?

And that's why you were trying to get into my surgery team.

You know what? Rather than a rounded stone,

I prefer a cornered stone.

Cornered means...

that there is a unique style and unique thinking within them.

So when they hit against the world,

they continually find their own shape, that's what I like.

Rather than just going along with the world,

one who keeps the edge, with one's own philosophy,

based on one's own faith,

and creating their own shape.

♬ Eyes can see. ♬

I think I might of thought you were someone like that.

You performed a gallbladder empyema surgery that you didn't have to that day.

I'd concluded that you really did it to save a patient at risk,

not an event you created out of a reliance on your father's powerful influence.

I thought you had pretty good skills, too.

That's why I brought you here.

But...

But it looks like,

I thought wrong.

Go and tell your father.

Since Chairman Shin's surgery has gone up in smoke,

he doesn't have to suffer daily over every minute detail.

And it will be best if you left Doldam now.

♬ When they ask you if you knew me. ♬

♬ Remember that you were a friend of mine. ♬

♬ As the final curtain falls before ♬

♬ My eyes. ♬

♬ Oh when I'm old and wise. ♬

Terminal lung cancer?

A final stage of lung cancer?

Yes, Father, that's what he said.

What about the surgery? What's happening with the heart transplant?

It looks like it will be difficult to go through with that surgery.

Boo Yong Joo said that himself?

He said with his own mouth that the surgery would be difficult?

He said that for sure?

Yes, he said that to me himself.

Right. I got it.

Father.

What? Tell me.

I can go back now, right?

Until the situation is confirmed, stay a little longer.

Stop whining.

Yes.

I'm here.

I've run over here as soon as I'd heard of Chairman Shin's situation.

How worried you must be.

From whom did you hear?

I have a few people who are my ears at Doldam.

- I see.- This is a bit awkward, but

given the situation, shouldn't he give up on

the heart transplant surgery?

What do you think?

Should I get the surgery?

Or since I've been given a death sentence,

I shouldn't do such an impellent surgery?

Honestly, in situations like this,

there is nothing a doctor can do;

other than respecting the choice the patient makes.

What will happen if I said I wouldn't get the surgery?

I wanted to fix your heart,

and brag about it loudly and take advantage of it.

But it looks like that's all for not.

How can you joke about that in a situation like this?

It's hard to decide or predict which one of the two,

the heart or the lung, will stop functioning first, Chairman Shin.

What if I say I want to go ahead with the surgery?

The artificial heart surgery itself has a high degree of risk.

It really is a dangerous dilemma I'm in.

Right. Okay.

Director Yeo.

You were here, too, Chief Administrator.

Would you like a cup of coffee, too?

Yes, thank you.

Our Doctor Kang Dong Joo.

He looks rough around the edges outside but when you get to know him his affection runs deep inside.

Isn't that so, Director?

Yes, well. I think so.

Honestly when I see the energy flowing in his eye brows and the forehead,

once he finds a woman he loves, he will stay steadfast and never change his heart.

Don't you think so, Director?

Well, I'm not familiar with face reading.

As a boyfriend or as a husband, he has a look that will lack nothing.

Thank you for the coffee. I will go off now.

Yes, go ahead.

As I'd thought, she cannot hide her expression.

Hey, Kang Dong Joo. It's an emergency.

Emergency?

I think Chief Administrator Jang knows something.

Knows what?

Ah, you startled me.

He is suspicious of you and me still.

He was saying all kinds of nonsense in front of the Director.

I think he will tell everyone at the hospital these strange stories.

So what?

Let's fight.

Fight?

Really hard. That looks real.

Dr. Yoon Seo Jung, why would you give the patient pain killers first?

Hey, Dong Joo, that was me.

Don't you see that the patient is in pain?

He was in such pain.

Am I that far away?

It takes 2 minutes to move from the treatment room to the emergency. You should have called me first.

It would have been better to diagnose to see if it's surgical abdominal case.

Right, that's what I thought at first, too.

Don't you know that other than NSAIDs, painkillers do not have an effect on a physical examination?

I do know that, that's why--

From now on, when you get acute stomach pain patients, call the surgeon first.

You think the ER is a traffic control station?

Staff here can take care of things in their own way, you know?

Are you trying to pit the ER against the Surgery?

Hey, are you trying to step up on top of your senior?

What are you two doing? I said I was the one who was wrong.

- What did you do wrong exactly?- What did you do wrong exactly?

Kang Dong Joo and Yoon Seo Jung are always arguing

whenever they face each other.

I know.

It's fake.

You startled us.

Fake? What fake?

To cover up the fact that they are the Company Couple #1,

they are acting to conceal their relationship.

No way.

Don't assume things. She said they're not dating.

What would you do if I am right?

For one month, your drinks are free at my place.

Side dishes are free, too.

Okay, sure. Free.

Those two are becoming a couple and why should you be making such a bet?

- It's fun. - It's fun.

It's Master Kim.

Things don't jive!

Everyone be seated.

What's it about, Master Kim?

The surgery conference with everyone...

will be suspended as of today.

What do you mean by that, sir?

We have the results of the CT scan and it shows terminal lung cancer.

Last stage of lung cancer.

To push ahead an artificial heart surgery in this situation

will be too hard on the patient.

Therefore, everything we have been—

Can we come in for a moment?

It's okay, it's okay. Stay seated.

Are these the staff chosen for my surgery?

Yes, Mr. Chairman.

Ah, they look very reliable.

Don't you think so, Manager Joo?

Yes, they do.

We were just discussing the situation

about your surgery.

That's good then.

I've come down to talk about that, too.

Look here, Master Kim.

Why don't we carry on with our original plan?

Pardon?

Let's do the surgery as originally planned.

Mr. Chairman.

Since things have turned out this way,

what do you think of yourself going for the Chairman position?

We are in need of a younger chairman within our hospital, I feel.

You can consider it the greed of an old man or dementia.

But, even if I live one more day,

I would like to live breathing freely.

I'm going to die anyway.

You can fulfill a wish of that magnitude, can't you?

Uh? Master Kim?

Is Boo Yong Joo going to do the surgery?

You think Director Do will leave Master Kim alone?

He could put everyone at the Doldam Hospital in trouble.

I'm going to give two options to Boo Yong Joo.

Pardon? Switching of the staff?

With all the staff from Geodae Hospital?

What about Boo Yong Joo?

What do you think of going as a staff change, Master Kim?

He will never change his staff.

If you cannot change the staff...

You will have to accept other conditions. Is that okay?

There is only one thing left to do. Ousting him from this field for good.

It's hard, huh?

Thank you, sunbaenim.

That's pretty. Did you get it as a gift?

What?

It's just.
