RESIDENT PLAYBOOK

EPISODE 3

Goodness.

All right. Gosh.

Get up.

I'm folding laundry here.

Can't you see?

Geez. You little…

Why fold them
when I'm going to wear them anyway?

Aren't you going to do the dishes?

Later.

I'll do them after we have dinner.

Did you clean the bathroom?

I'll do it when I shower.

And the living expenses?

You didn't wire it yesterday.
When will you send it?

You told me to pay off my debt.

If I had money, I'd give it to you.

You have until tomorrow
before I kick you out.

Joo-young, it's exhausting for me too.

Forcing yourself to work is hard.

And time passes so damn slowly.

Do you act like this outside too?

Do you have that "I hate this" expression

and say the most despicable things
at the hospital too?

I'm not like this at work.

Right? You're being professional,
aren't you?

No, I'm not. I can't be like that at all.

Speaking of which…

Can you buy me an outfit
so I can be more professional?

Don't be ridiculous.

Hey, your brother-in-law wears his shirts
until the collars are frayed.

Beggars can't be choosers. Geez.

-Do-won is home.
-It's Seung-won.

You should exercise too

instead of lying around
like a zombie every Sunday.

I'll end up in the ER
if I work out like them.

Seung-won, you got a package.

-I put it on the vanity in your bedroom.
-I see.

Should we eat out tonight?

Eat out?

Should we? All of us together for once?

To celebrate my first paycheck,
I'll treat you to frozen pork belly.

It's Seung-won's favorite.

I prefer pork neck.
Do-won is the one who likes it.

Oh, is that so?

We have similar taste.

Joo-young, we're out of bottled water.

There's no beer either.
I'll buy some on my way back.

-You're leaving? What about dinner?
-And the pork belly?

-I need to go to the hospital.
-Why?

Why ask? He must have work to do.

But it's Sunday.
Why does he need to work today?

Sir?

Sorry. It just turned out that way.

What about the pork belly?

You guys can eat without me.

Should we?

Let's do that.

We can't say no if it's Yi-young's treat.

I have plans.

What?

I have dinner plans too.

Didn't you want pork belly?

When did I say that?

You little brat!

Are you really meeting someone
at the hospital on a Sunday?

Yes, I am.

It just turned out that way.

Want to listen to music?

Sure.

Go ahead.

I thought you'd play it.

No, I don't really listen to music.

I meant you could play it if you're bored.

I see. You don't like music.

I like bread.

White bread, red bean bread,
cream bread, streusel bread, everything.

I like tteokbokki and gimbap,
but I'm not a fan of sundae.

I love getting massages
and hate running, walking, and hiking.

But I'm good at swimming.
I was on the Dolphin Swim Team.

That's why I prefer the ocean
to the mountains.

Am I being too chatty?
Am I distracting you?

It's okay. I wasn't listening anyway.

There's less traffic on Sundays.

I was almost late for work yesterday
due to severe traffic.

Why are you going
to the hospital on a Sunday?

I'm supposed to work
on a paper with Dr. Myeong.

We need to review some charts.

There's absolutely no time on weekdays,

so weekends are the only time
I can do research.

Why did you agree to do it with her?
You should've said no.

How could I?

You should have.

Get your head on straight.

Before you know it,
you'll be doing it all by yourself.

I doubt it.

Gosh, this is frustrating.

It won't be easy,
but I think it'll be helpful for me.

And she'll list me as the first author,
so why would I refuse?

Do you think being called a yes-man
or a team player is a compliment?

Those are different nicknames
for a pushover.

That's why they call me
Do-won the Pushover.

Funny, right?

Sometimes when I look at you, I think…

-That I'm handsome?
-Yes.

What? No.

Are you crazy? What are you saying?

Sometimes when I look at you, I think…

That I'm pretty?

You're really funny.

You're the funniest woman I've ever met.

What do you mean? I've never been funny.

What's so funny about me?

See? You're funny.

The way you talk, your reactions…

Are you okay?

No, I'm not okay.

RESIDENT PLAYBOOK

Thank you.

Hello.

Did you sleep well?

We were on call, so we stayed up.

I see.

Jae-il, why are you here so early?

Well, I--

First-years have a lot to do
in the morning.

They're still a bit slow,
so it takes longer to do things.

Yes, she's right.

You're working hard.

They say the first year is the toughest.

But guess what?

The second year is even harder.

And the third year makes
the second look easy. Okay?

Today will be tough once again.
Every day is tough.

Shall we go then?

Okay.

Right. I saw Dr. Ku.
Should we get him some coffee?

He already had some 30 minutes ago.

He's probably basking in the sun
on the bench in front of the stairs now.

How do you know that?

Everyone in OB-GYN probably knows
where and what he's doing by the hour.

He's the first to show up for breakfast
at 5:00 a.m. before work.

Good morning.

He goes to the basement convenience store
during surgery breaks,

eats a red-bean bun, and downs some coffee
before working again.

His meals always follow a clockwise order.

Korean snack food, Chinese the next day,

Western food the day after, and then--

-Korean snack food.
-Correct.

Mondays, he's at the gym
across the hospital.

Wednesdays, he plays tennis
across the hospital.

Then he comes back here.

Gosh, he's really living
a "that guy" lifestyle with that routine.

I wouldn't say "that guy."

He's pretty much living at the hospital.

"That doctor"?

"That doctor"?

-Shall we?
-Let's go.

-Let me.
-It's okay.

Let me.

Give it to me.

Good morning.

-What are you wearing?
-What?

Hey, Shoulder Pads. Will you fit in there?

Geez.

Please wait.

Excuse me.

Fifth floor, right?

Yes.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

What was that for?

I really don't like workplace romances.

What are you saying?

That doctor seems to like me.

Really? Seriously?

-I seriously doubt it.
-I'm telling you.

I see. I'm going first.

Oh, come on.

I'm positive.

Stop looking back all the time.

Someone might think
you have a crush on them.

Did I do that?

Yesterday at the café,

you kept glancing
when we were with our colleagues.

Geez.

-Do you like me that much?
-Yes.

I didn't realize I was being so obvious.

Professor Yong Seok-min.

It's the same short white coat,
but I sense a different vibe.

What do you mean? I haven't changed.

Geez. I'm the youngest professor.
An underling.

Are you writing another paper?

You've been writing so many.

There's a lot to study.

I need to go as soon as I get the data.
Professor Chae Song-hwa is waiting.

Actually, she called earlier this morning.

She told me
to make sure you eat before you go

even if you used her as an excuse.

-Really?
-Yes.

She's really the Ghost.

I'm so touched. My heart's fluttering.

Your heart should only flutter for me.

Come on.

What? Too cheesy?

No. You really made my heart flutter.

JONGNO YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

Are they dating?

How did he know
I was going to the fifth floor?

How long has this been going on?

That's where the residents' office is.
Where else would you go?

This wasn't the first time.

Yesterday, we ran into each other
at a café during lunchtime.

We always go there after lunch--

He was drinking coffee then looked at me
as if mesmerized, and smiled.

As he was leaving,
he turned to look at me and smiled again.

Maybe you're funny-looking to him.

Even today.
How did we just meet right there?

I think he timed it.

Go ask him if he likes you.

Why ask? It's so obvious.

What do you mean?

He kept looking and smiling.

His body reacts before his mind does.

What else could it be?

It's love.

Love isn't something you say with words.

Your body just reacts
without you even realizing it.

It's like an uncontrollable sneeze.

Gosh, did I catch a cold?

The residents' meeting
is at 6:30 a.m., right?

There's so much work,
so why are we doing it so early?

We have to.
I have more than a few things to bring up.

Look at these scrubs.

I washed them so many times
the pants are fraying at the hem.

And the on-call pay.

Isn't this pretty much labor exploitation?

It's absurd how the pay
hasn't increased for years.

That's not what we're discussing today.

Then what? What are we discussing?

Do you really not know?
Do you have no idea?

What's the topic?

You.

These are just
some of the countless reports.

It's just the tip of the iceberg.

"Case one."

"April 22, Professor Jo Joon-mo."

"Shouted due to delayed GS arrangement."

Who was responsible?

He wasn't exactly shouting.

He was just a bit irritated.

I'm sorry.

"Case two.
April 24, Professor Jo Joon-mo."

"Was extremely furious
and gave the resident an earful

due to delayed patient echocardiogram."

Was this you again?

I immediately apologized.

-She's always quick to apologize.
-Be quiet.

This is why
we have to have these meetings.

Professor Jo is known for having
the shortest temper in our hospital.

He hates delays
more than anything in the world.

You can't even get that right?

Yes, I understand!

Dr. Oh isn't the only problem here.

Let me point out a few issues
with you first-years.

You don't properly greet your seniors.

Whenever things get a little hard,
you show it.

If you're going to work anyway,

can't you respond with a smile
when asked to do something?

Yes, ma'am.

Gosh, she's the scariest type of fogey.

A young fogey.

Dr. Oh?

Can you do it?

Yes, ma'am.

But…

How can we not show
we're struggling when it's hard?

What did you say?

I mean, we don't want to show it either.

But

it just shows on our faces.

Wasn't the study group at 7:00 a.m.?
Why are you here so early?

Have you eaten?
Have our first-years eaten yet?

-Hello, Dr. Ku.
-Hey.

What were you up to?

Da-hye.

Yes?

Don't tell me
you've revived the residents' meeting.

That kind of uncivilized
public execution is forbidden.

I worked hard to abolish that,

so don't hold such meetings

and don't attend them either.

Understood?

Yes, we understand.

Say, "Yes, sir."

Yes, sir.

Right.

A patient left this at the ward.

It's for a male resident,
and since it's not me…

Look at you, Um Jay!

Me? Is that for me?

She asked me to tell you
she's very grateful.

She wanted to compliment you
and even wrote down your name.

Professor Seo was elated
and bought us this food.

-Thanks, Um Jay.
-My pleasure.

She's Cho-rong's mom from Mapo
who runs a flower shop,

and her husband is a car dealer.

Yes, that's her.

If he gets featured
on the Compliment Board,

wouldn't he be the first
among OB-GYN first-years?

-That's right.
-What?

Even I've never done that.

"The first"? Really?

Probably.

-Congratulations.
-Congrats.

It hasn't happened yet.
I'll congratulate you once it's official.

Sure. Do as you please.

I thought it'd be Sa-bi for sure.

Making it to the board won't affect

the medical knowledge assessment
or research evaluation.

But isn't it helpful
for the residency evaluation?

The mid-year evaluation is coming up.

I doubt the professors care that much.

My friend's hospital gives
a 20,000-won coffee voucher for it.

That's not the point.

The fact is that
a patient found comfort in what I said.

They said not to get
too emotionally invested in our patients…

But you could do a bit of that.

What did you do?

Well… I put my heart into it
when dealing with my patients.

I empathize with their feelings
and always make sure to speak warmly.

I realized words are crucial--

I see.

I have to go.

But…

I thought it was something profound.
See you.

Isn't this profound?

It was a pro tip.

Speak warmly, was it?

If I do that,
will I also be featured on the board?

You bet.

"Ms. Patient."

"Ma'am."

EXAMINATION ROOM
ATTENDING DOCTOR: JO JOON-MO

This is our first time
being referred to a big hospital.

You've probably already heard,

but the biopsy results
confirm endometrial cancer.

The cancer in the uterus is quite large,

so preserving the uterus
will be difficult.

I heard it might've spread to the ovaries.
Is that true?

Yes, there are masses on both ovaries.

But we can't determine

if they're metastasized cancer
or just simple cysts.

A pre-surgery biopsy
of the ovaries is impossible,

so we'll need to perform a biopsy
during the surgery to know for certain.

I mean…

Cancer?

I'm sorry, Doctor.

My mom hasn't come to terms
with this just yet.

That's okay.

First, you'll need to be admitted
and get MRI and CT scans.

Then we'll schedule your surgery
as soon as possible

to get a better look at the ovaries.

Ms. Geum Seon-mi?

Yes, that's me.

Let's begin the MRI scan.

Okay, I'm coming.

Mom.

I just need some tests and surgery.

Okay.

I've been fasting in preparation.

I was worried
I wouldn't be able to get the tests done.

But we're getting the MRI right away, see?

I'm relieved.

Mom, I'm fine. Okay?

I'm fine, so why are you crying?

JONGNO YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

Check Ms. Geum's symptoms thoroughly.

Check when and how frequently
the irregular bleeding occurred.

Yes, sir.

There you go again.

Oh, it's just my hobby.

You know that.

She must be tense
since the surgery was moved up suddenly.

Go comfort her well.

I'm not good at comforting.

Explain things well and visit her
frequently as her attending doctor.

Showing that you care is comforting.

Yes, sir.

By the way…

The patient was very brave,
but her mother was…

She cried for over 30 minutes
after leaving the examination room.

I tried to explain everything,

but she barely listened.

In that case…

Explain well to the guardian

and visit her frequently
as the attending doctor.

-Showing that you--
-"Showing that you care is comforting."

-You know it well.
-Tell me.

How exactly do I do that?
I really don't know.

How am I supposed to teach you?
Even I don't know.

Yes, I'm coming.

Work hard.

I read online

that there's a new targeted therapy.

Could that apply to me?

-A new chemotherapy drug?
-Yes.

Maybe the current drug is too strong.

My body feels so weak,
and I have no energy.

I wonder if it's because of the drug.

Am I right?

You see, I'm still a first-year resident.

I'll ask and get back to you right away.

Goodness.

How do you know
even less than your patient?

-Hello, ma'am.
-Hello.

-Oh, my.
-It's tough, isn't it?

Goodness.

Physical strength is crucial
during chemotherapy.

You need to eat well and exercise a lot.

You look better
than when you came three weeks ago.

I was worried
I wouldn't see you before leaving.

Right, Doctor.

Strangely, I feel especially weak
and have no energy.

I really feel like I'm dying.

Ma'am, you barely ate yesterday,
didn't you?

My mouth tastes bitter, so what can I do?

I'm sick of hospital food.

Still, you need to eat and exercise a lot.

That's the best thing you can do. Okay?

All right. I will.

I'm going to check tomorrow.

-Goodness.
-To see if you finished your meal.

I said I would.

All right. Stay strong.

Thank you.

Goodness.

Hey, no patient is going to like it

if you stand there
with that "I don't know anything" look.

But what can I do if I really don't know?

Everyone in the hospital
already knows that we're idiots.

Even that kind transport attendant,
Mr. Hwang Min-cheol, doesn't trust us.

There's absolutely no one here
who trusts first-year residents.

This is the advanced version
of the tip I mentioned earlier.

Gosh. Should I tell you or not?

Go ahead. I'll give it a listen.

"Eat well and exercise a lot."

What?

If you're not sure, just say this.

"Eat well and exercise a lot."

Is it not true?

It is true.

Eating well and exercising a lot
are shortcuts to good health.

I shouldn't have taken you seriously.

You're just stating the obvious--

Hello, Doctor.

Oh, hello.

How's the pain?

It's still a bit uncomfortable.

It's taking some time.

You need to focus on eating well
and exercising a lot.

Did you exercise a lot today?

-Not much.
-Oh, dear.

That won't do.

Consistency is key.

Let's walk together.

That would be nice.

I'd be spending
some quality time with you.

-Let's walk to the annex.
-Okay.

You need to exercise a lot
even when I'm not here.

Yes, I understand.

I'll check on you every single day.

-Mom.
-Yes?

My hands and feet are fine.

I'm just doing this because I want to.

Oh, right.

They said a window-side bed
might be available tomorrow.

So hang in there.

I like it here. It's close to the hallway.

What's good about it? It's a doorway.

No, it's not.

It's close to the nurses' station,
and the bathroom is right there.

You're so considerate.

You're kindhearted and optimistic, so why…

Here we go again.

Your nose will get chafed.

-Hello.
-Hello.

Hello.

Is everything okay?

Yes, everything's fine.

Your surgery will probably be
the day after tomorrow in the afternoon.

It's the last slot of the day.

If earlier surgeries are delayed
or there's an emergency,

yours could be pushed back.

Look. She's already fasting today
for the tests.

And she'll be fasting until late
on the surgery day too.

She'll be too weak by then.

Can't the surgery be in the morning?

There are other surgeries
scheduled before hers.

Otherwise, we'd have to postpone the date.
Would you like that?

No, that's okay.
I'll have the surgery as planned.

Okay.

Mom, I'm young. I'll be fine.

You should stop fasting and eat something.

Can you please tell her?

Ma'am, you need to eat to stay healthy.

Please eat.

Don't mind me.

Right, Doctor.

How long will the surgery take?

The hysterectomy alone
takes about an hour and a half.

But it could take up to three hours
if there is ovarian metastasis.

We just did an MRI scan earlier.

Can't you really tell if it has spread?

No, we can't determine that clearly.

But still, it's a major open surgery.

But you don't know how long it'll take
or how much you'll need to remove.

That doesn't make sense.

That's often the case in gynecology.

Why is everything like this?

There could be good news too, Mom.

Right, Doctor? My ovaries could be fine.

Well…

I can't tell you
anything definitive right now.

We'll know after the surgery.

You made my mom cry again.

Ms. Yang, stop crying.

-Okay.
-Okay?

Look, I don't know about all that.

The day after tomorrow, okay?

Just make sure
I can be discharged by then.

Ma'am, I can't guarantee that.
Nothing's for sure right now.

But we need to reinsert your catheter.

Your residual urine is over 400.

Four hundred?

What's that?
Are you talking about my hospital bill?

No, it's the urine left in your bladder.

You're not getting enough urine
out of your body.

Hold on. How do you know that?

Goodness, I must've not flushed.

That's not why.

We'll reinsert the catheter later today.

You can only be discharged

if your residual urine
has decreased by tomorrow.

What should I do?

I have to attend a wedding in three days.

What will I do?

Goodness.

I didn't want any bad luck
before the wedding,

so I didn't even tell
my family about this.

What should I do?

Let's keep this a secret, okay?

I need to attend the wedding.

Doctor, is there any way you can help?

I'd love for you to get discharged.

But a discharge isn't possible
with high residual urine.

Gosh, why isn't my urine
coming out properly?

Then how about you give me some medicine?

Whatever you need to do,
please do it quickly.

-I want to leave in three days.
-We need to monitor you first.

Why do you need

to monitor my urine again?

It's residual urine, not just urine.

Ma'am.

You're not eating well, are you?

Well, that's because…

How can I eat what you serve here?

I knew it.

Ma'am, you need to eat well
and drink plenty of water.

And exercise. You need to exercise a lot.

That's how you can be discharged.

Are you serious?

Do you think I don't know that?

My stomach hurts from the surgery,
and my knees are aching too.

That's all the more reason
to eat well and exercise a lot.

Okay. I'll do that.

I'll start today…

No, I'll start right now.

Don't worry.

Good.

I'm telling you.

I would've been up all night
with that lady if it weren't for Jae-il.

It's true. It's totally effective.

What's the point of just filling your head
with reading and studying?

The real world isn't just about studying.

I want to try it too,
but I haven't had the chance.

-Hello.
-Hello.

You guys have become so close now.
You're even getting off work together.

Where are you going?

-Home.
-Home.

Right. We have homes to go to.

Go on then.

Goodbye.

Aren't you guys

hungry?

-What?
-Food?

Yes. Should we have dinner together?

Is it your treat?

I'm grateful that at least you stayed.

Eat up.

You better be grateful.

Who'd want to stay if someone
offered dinner on their way home?

I made a big mistake.

I really wasn't thinking much.

But I'm glad that they were honest
and asked to take a rain check.

I don't feel bad, and neither do they.

Don't you know Gen Zs?

Of course. I'm a Gen Z too.

No, you're not.

Why aren't you going home?

I need to watch a surgery video.

Why aren't you going home?

You wanted to eat…

I was leaving, you know?

Right. Sorry.

-Are you done already?
-Yeah.

Take your time.

It's okay. I'm full.

Why ask us to eat with you
if you're going to eat so quickly?

Why come if you wouldn't eat?
Why not leave like a true Gen Z?

I thought we were going out…

I thought we were going somewhere nice.

The cafeteria? Really?

I should apologize again, right?

Sorry.

That was so insincere.

Is Hwang Gyeong-ju here?

I'm her dad.
I got a call that she collapsed.

She's over there.

Gyeong-ju, what happened?

Where does it hurt?

Does it hurt a lot?

What's going on?

I'm fine, Dad. It's nothing serious.

Just go back to work.

Go on.

She was fine this morning.
Where is she suddenly hurting?

Does she have appendicitis?

No, that's not it.

Then what is it?

The professor will be here soon.
She just finished a delivery.

Sorry?

Hello.

Are you in a lot of pain?

Let me check your belly.

COUNSELING ROOM

I already explained everything
to her and Ms. Geum,

but she wanted another doctor
to explain it again.

You all kept saying you didn't know, so…

I'm just so anxious.

Then let me explain
the procedure again, ma'am.

Okay.

First, we'll remove
the suspected ovarian cyst

and send it for emergency biopsy.

Then the endometrial cancer
will be removed through a hysterectomy.

Then depending
on the ovarian biopsy results,

we'll decide
whether to remove the ovaries or not.

I see.

Are there cases
where the ovaries aren't removed

because it's not cancer?

As we mentioned,
we can only determine that during surgery.

I meant if the ovaries were fine.

If her ovaries aren't removed,

does that mean
she can live without hormone therapy?

Yes, hormone therapy isn't needed
if only the uterus is removed.

So, after the surgery,

will my daughter be able to study
and work like before

and live a normal life?

She'll need chemotherapy
or radiation treatment after the surgery.

I see…

-Chemotherapy…
-Ma'am.

This is very hard for you, isn't it?

Please tell me something positive.

Tell me things will be okay.

Why is everything so uncertain?

What did my daughter do so wrong?

There needs to be a glimmer of hope

for me to reassure her
that everything will be okay.

That would make me feel less guilty.

Ma'am.

I was wondering who was crying.

Mom, there are people
staring in the hallway.

Is this why you wanted me to take a walk?

Come on.

I told you I'm okay.
People will think someone died.

Don't say such a thing.
That's no way to talk to your mom.

Okay. I get it, so let's go already.

You're starting to embarrass me, Mom.

I'm sorry.

Next time,
please just explain everything to me.

It's so exhausting
to comfort my crying mom.

Okay, Doctor?

I see.

Okay.

What were you thinking?

Hwang Gyeong-ju.

Say something, will you?

You must've thought this through
to have hidden it from me all along.

Gyeong-ju.

You're a freshman in university.

What are you planning to do now?

We've administered
a uterine contraction inhibitor.

We'll monitor you for an hour or two--

Are you not going to talk?

Answer me!

I'll handle it on my own, so just go!

If I go, then what? What if I leave?

Your mom's not coming, so who will?

Who else will come?

God…

Does he know? That crazy son of a…

Does he know about this?

I'm going crazy.

Don't tell me
you're going through this alone.

Do you…

-Do you even know whose baby it is?
-Dad!

Dad… I mean…

Sir, please calm down--

Give me your phone.

Give it to me!

Gyeong-ju.

Is it you?

Is it?!

You bastard…

Yeong-chan.

Are you okay?

Did you wait long?

Shall we begin?

Can you hear the heartbeat?

The baby is growing well at about 2.7 kg.

You've been taking good care of your baby.

That's the baby's head…

Hello?

That's the head.
You can see the eyes and nose clearly.

Right.

I can see them well.

The amniotic fluid volume is appropriate,
and the placenta is in a good position.

The baby's position is also good.

There are no unusual findings for now.

Ta-da.

Ms. Yoon Ae-sin from Haenam gave me these.

Every time we meet, she says
she wishes I could be her son-in-law.

Her daughter visited yesterday.

What? Doesn't she only have two sons?

I see. She must've forgotten
about her daughter.

Come here for a second.

Just ask without expecting much.

What is it?

It's about

a guardian.

Right?

See?

I can't believe
you're asking me for advice…

I see.

This is quite tricky.

The patient's father is livid,

and the boyfriend seems suspicious
like he might run away.

Yes, that's what Sa-bi just said.

Things can seem very complicated in OB

since baby issues
overlap with family issues.

But surprisingly,
the solutions are often simple.

A baby's cry.

Think back to your intern days.

We tear up and feel emotional
even when a complete stranger gives birth.

So imagine
if it's your own child or grandchild.

Sure, he might be angry with her
and shocked by the situation right now.

But his heart will melt
once he hears the baby's cry.

Come to think of it, the dad responded
for the first time and even smiled a bit

when he heard the baby's heartbeat.

That's good then.

The dad… No.

The grandfather… No.

You just need him to hear the baby's cry

and say, "Congratulations,
the baby is so beautiful."

It would be a happy ending.

But the problem is--

The patient's boyfriend.
That's why Sa-bi is here.

Maybe he's scared
because he'll become a dad overnight.

The same goes for moms too.

I know.

But he didn't even know
about the pregnancy,

so he had no time to prepare himself.

Maybe he'll sort out his feelings
and show up by tomorrow.

If he doesn't,
he won't hear the baby's cry.

What's so simple about this solution?
You don't know either.

Why are you mad at me?

-You drank my Americano!
-Yes, you did!

I'll buy you one tomorrow.

Let's go home. It's way past our shift.

Bye.

You're superfast when it's time to go.
Who's chasing after you?

Where's Oh Yi-young?

Where is she?

Don't tell me
she delayed surgery again and went home.

Damn it.

Hello.

Hello.

What's your problem?

Why are there always delays?

Don't you know
I hate surgical delays more than anything?

I know. I'm sorry.

You and your damn apologies.

What's the reason today that
I have to perform surgery at this hour?

It's a co-op and even urology is waiting.
Do you even know how upset everyone is?

I needed the echocardiogram

and pulmonary function tests done…

What?

I contacted cardiology,

but they told me to wait.

You couldn't even manage
one test schedule properly,

and you're sitting on your hands
because they told you to?!

All I asked
was to get the patient's tests done

and bring her
to the operating room on time!

Is that so difficult?
These are the basics!

If you can't even do this,
it just means you don't want to work.

What is it? Are you going to quit again?

Are you going to give up again?

Excuse me, Doctor.

I need your help.

The IV solution seems to be leaking.

Well…

A nurse will come over
and check it for you soon.

It's a bit urgent.

Maybe Dr. Oh could take a look at it.

Would you like that?

Dr. Oh, go ahead.

Go and check.

Bye.

Goodbye.

The professor must be scary.

He's not like that with us.

Yes, a little.

I thought about just walking away,

but you reminded me of my daughter.

No one is good from the get-go.

We all learn from our mistakes.

But I make a lot of them.

Thank you though.

I shouldn't say this
in front of someone who just got scolded…

but you're lucky.

You're doing what you want to do,
making mistakes, and getting scolded.

I envy all of that.

If my daughter wasn't sick,

she'd be getting scolded
by someone as well.

Then she'd call me

to complain about her boss
and tattle on them.

I only have myself to blame.

I sent her abroad all alone.

I was oblivious to her suffering.

I bragged about her
getting into a good school

and becoming a lawyer.

I don't even deserve to cry.

But I can't help but tear up
every time I look at her.

I'm going to stop crying now.

She's so brave.

And here I am, her mom, crying all day.

I'm going to do all the things
I couldn't do for her from now on.

I'm going to stay right by her side.

I won't let her suffer alone ever again.

It's time I started being a proper mom.

Well…

There's not much I can do for you

but try to find out as quickly as I can

if the cancer has spread to the ovaries.

I'll ask my professor once he calms down.

I appreciate it.

But I don't think that'll be easy.

Look…

Could I ask you for one more favor?

JONGNO YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

Have you decided?

Never mind.

A hot Americano, please.

One hot Americano.

Dr. Ku is treating us.

And one Mega-ricano. Next.

Iced Americano for me.
With an extra shot, please.

-Hot Earl Grey tea for me.
-Okay.

Plain Pong Crush.

With honey Pong cereal and extra honey.

I'm quitting
if I can't leave on time today.

By the way, are you attending a funeral?

Who passed away?

This is blue-black, not just black.

And it's a new release.

I have a blind date today.

He's 32, and his business
apparently struck gold.

What did he drive again?

Anyway, I really hope it goes well today.

Hey, people are staring!

They're not. Don't worry.

Have you looked in a mirror?

How do you look shabbier with time?

It's as if you suddenly went bankrupt.

Hello?

Okay, we're on our way.

Your call cannot be connected.
You will be redirected to voicemail.

-Your call cannot be connected.
-Damn it.

Will Ms. Hwang's guardian
please come to the delivery room?

She's about to deliver.

Already?

Ms. Hwang, are you in a lot of pain?

Don't forget to breathe.

Dad, call Yeong-chan…

Okay.

Your call cannot be connected.
You will be redirected to voicemail.

IN SURGERY
GUARDIAN WAITING ROOM

Ms. Hwang Gyeong-ju's guardian?

Sir.

What about my daughter? How is she?

Both she and her baby are healthy.

The baby has ten fingers and ten toes
and is breathing well on their own.

I see.

Thank you.

You've worked hard.

You'll be able to see her soon
after her post-delivery care.

-She'll recover then go to her room--
-Just a moment!

I'm sorry.

Why in the world are you so late?

Your immaturity can't be an excuse!

And why was your phone…

Oh, it's dead.

I'm sorry.

I tried to bring my mother,
but I couldn't.

I'm sorry, sir.

She slapped me once,
and that seemed to help her calm down.

I promise to sort things out
with my parents.

I'll convince them and bring them here.

You have my word, sir.

How is Gyeong-ju?

When can I see her?

She's doing fine.
You'll be able to see her soon.

Thank you.

RESEARCH CONSENT FORM

Dr. Pyo, you must have plans.

I do. How did you know?

Your makeup looks amazing today,
and you're glowing.

-You look like a different person.
-I have a blind date.

I see. No wonder you look stunning today.

Your new hairstyle suits you so well.

Everything is perfect
from your makeup to your outfit.

You're flawless.

My hair is the same as always.

What is it?

I have just one favor before you leave.

So tell me. Will I be discharged tomorrow?

I'm afraid we'll need to wait
until tomorrow morning to know for sure.

My urine must be the issue again.

Yes. Goodbye then.

What time in the morning?

Early or late morning?

Well… we'll insert the catheter tonight,

remove it at dawn,
then wait for four hours…

It'd be 9:00 a.m. at the earliest.

No, between 10:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m.

It'd be 12:00 p.m. at the latest.

The wedding is at 3:00 p.m.,
so I should be able to make it.

You may or may not be able to go.

Goodness. I know that much too.

-Goodbye then.
-By the way…

Your face is blooming like a flower.

Are you going somewhere nice?

Yes. I'll see you tomorrow.

Make sure to eat and exercise a lot!

Okay.

I have one favor.

No.

An antipyretic
for Ms. Min Bo-ra in Room 1011.

-No.
-You always say no but end up helping.

If it goes well, I'll hook you up.

I don't think it'll go well.

Do you have the devil's tongue?
I need a charm to ward you off.

It won't work.

Just help me this once.

Ms. Min Bo-ra, okay? An antipyretic.

No.

Min Bo-ra…

Yes, Room 1011.

By the way,

don't they reset the Compliment Board
around the third week?

That's strange.

Hello, sir.

Ms. Geum Seon-mi's work-up is complete.

The surgeries have been
running behind since morning,

so her surgery will proceed at 7:00 p.m.

Goodbye.

Surgery? Who?

-Professor Jo Joon-mo?
-Yes.

If this surgery is delayed too,
he'll really kill me.

Hey, are you going already?

Her guardian asked for a favor.

What is it?

Tell me.

She asked you to stay with the patient
from the entrance to the OR

until the anesthesia?

Yes, because she can't enter.

Right, that operating room corridor
is indeed scary.

And she knows you better
than the transport attendant.

It's not a difficult task anyway.

Don't tell me
you're going to stay completely silent.

Then what should I say?

Anything.

I can't do that kind of thing.

In that case…

I'll be waiting right here,

so don't worry
and just get a good rest, okay?

My kind and smart baby.

Everything will be fine, so don't worry.

Just trust me.

Okay. I'm not worried.

The doctors know what they're doing.

And it'll take only 1.5 hours
if it's just the uterus.

Even with the ovarian surgery,
it'll be done in three hours.

I'll be done in a jiffy.

An hour and a half.

It'll be done in an hour and a half.

I know.

Right, Doctor?

Right. Yes.

I'll be back after the surgery.

Don't be crying out here, okay?

I won't.

Why would I cry?

Everything will be fine after the surgery.

I'm counting on you, Doctor.

Okay. We'll head in now.

I'll be back.

HWANG GYEONG-JU

Sir, you see…

I can devote

my entire life to our child.

And to Gyeong-ju as well.

The guardian
of Ms. Hwang Gyeong-ju's baby?

That's me! I'm the father!

Were you away today?
You weren't in the room during the day.

Yes, just briefly.

I'm so

happy for you.

The baby is beautiful.

Doesn't she take after her mom?

Her boyfriend seemed really happy too.

He's already so in love with his baby.

I'm truly happy for you, sir.

I should be

happy, shouldn't I?

Pardon?

Should I be happy
about becoming a grandfather overnight?

I know I should be grateful
that the baby was born healthy.

I know they're being responsible.

I get that it's a precious life and all.

I know all that.

But that baby
who looks exactly like my daughter…

That innocent baby…

To me…

she's like an angel who's come
to make my daughter's life miserable.

There are a lot of surgeries,
aren't there?

So many people get surgeries.

And many of them
have it worse than you, so--

I know. Misery loves company?

Sorry?

If that's what you're going for, save it.

I've heard that too many times.

Misery loves company? As if.

I'm the youngest one here.

I'm the unluckiest of all.

I'll be by your side
throughout the surgery.

So don't worry.

Why are you acting out of character?

Those kinds of words
aren't comforting at all,

so can't you act like you normally do?

Someone put you up to this. Am I right?

Yes.

He's a colleague of mine. Um Jae-il.

What's wrong with me?

I'm really fine.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Ma'am--

Sir.

I have a favor to ask.

CURRENT TIME

What is it? Are you in pain?

No, I'm fine.

Did…

Did she leave?

My mom? Yes.
She'll come by again tomorrow.

She brought baby clothes
and cotton cloths.

She said you'll need them.

I see. Please tell her I said thank you.

Okay.

You're in pain, aren't you?

Does it hurt a lot?
Should I call the doctor?

I…

It's okay.

Hello.

Hello.

Here.

This feels so much better.

There's more.

I really feel so much better now.
Thank you.

Your father had thrown this in the trash.

I was going to return it to him,

but the contents seemed to be for you.

I asked the other mothers
who were being discharged.

They said you needed these.

Call me if you need anything else.

Right.

Here.

Are you okay?

Did it hurt a lot?

It's okay.

It's okay.

It's 7:20 p.m.

Please give her ten more minutes.
Thank you.

We're okay.

But what about you?

Even if we start now,
it'll take at least 30 more minutes.

Professor Jo isn't the type
who'd understand these things.

You'll get yelled at again.

I'll tell him myself.

Sir, I'm calling
about Ms. Geum Seon-mi's surgery.

Yes, I'll be there
in exactly five minutes.

We'll start right away.

Actually, that might not be possible.

Why? What's the problem now?

It's me.

I forgot to do one lab test this morning.

ABGA.

ABGA.

You forgot the ABGA?

Yes. So…

Anesthesiology is doing
an emergency ABGA right now,

but it'll take some time.

Hey! Where's your head at?

I have an academic meeting today!

How many times
did I tell you not to delay this?

I specifically asked you
not to be late this time.

Seriously. What is your deal?

What is wrong with you?!

I'm really sorry. This won't happen again.

You idiot!

Yes, I am an idiot. I'm sorry.

Thank you.

Beginning anesthesia.

SURGERY STATUS

GEUM SEON *: OPERATING ROOM, IN SURGERY

Oh Yi-young, focus.

You're the reason for this delay,
so why are you checking the time?

I'm sorry.

ANESTHESIA TIME, SURGERY TIME

It's taking longer than usual today.

It should be here by now.

This is Pathology.

Is patient Geum Seon-mi in Room 10?

Yes, that's correct.

The tissue you sent
is from the ovary, correct?

Correct.

From the section we examined…

Explain the results well.

Stay calm so they won't get shocked…

If only she prepared for the surgery
at that speed…

SURGERY TIME

Thank you, Doctor.

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

Stop crying.

Thank you for your effort.

I was worried
because the ovarian mass didn't look good,

but both are benign.

The bleeding looks fine too.

I'll finish up here.

Please count the gauze.

How have you not gotten permission yet
for tomorrow's first surgery?

It's the most basic thing.

I'm sorry.

-I'll get it done right away.
-Goodbye.

Ma'am.

Goodness, you startled me.

It's nine o'clock.

Goodness, our beautiful doctor
works so hard.

Are you ready?

Yes.

It's okay.

Why is it still over 300?

It's okay if I can't be discharged.

I saw it coming.

How? Were you feeling unwell?

Yes, I was.

I felt bad for worrying you.

I did 12 laps during the day yesterday.

But at night, I only managed to do eight.

Eight laps?

Ma'am, I was just…

Just…

Just…

I shouldn't have said those things.

I didn't eat much
because I had no appetite.

I didn't walk enough either.

I may not be a doctor,

but even I knew
I wouldn't be able to be discharged.

You told me many times
to eat and exercise well,

but I failed to do that.

It's my fault, so don't feel bad. Okay?

But what about the wedding?
What'll you do about it?

Don't worry.

I called last night to say I couldn't go.

I canceled it.

You canceled the wedding?

Had I done that from the beginning,
I would've saved you the hassle.

I just really

wanted to go.

When I used to be

young and beautiful like you,

I thought I always had time
to do things later

and wait for another opportunity.

But once you age,

every opportunity becomes

your last.

There is no next time.

And time isn't on your side either.

So see things while you still have time

and do things while you still can.

Then you'll have fewer regrets
when you die.

And you'll miss them less.

I hope you'll live

that kind of life.

Don't have regrets like I do.

Okay.

Don't worry about me.

From now on,

I'll walk diligently every single day
and eat a lot too.

Ma'am, please only walk

as much as your knees can handle.

Just 30 minutes twice a day is enough.

As for food, try to eat
a balanced diet and chew well.

Overeating is forbidden.

I'm sorry.

Oh, my.

Don't be so ridiculous.

Goodness, Ok-im!
What are you doing here all alone?

How could you not tell us
about the surgery?

Is she okay?

Yes, the surgery went well.

She's doing well.

Mom.

You should've at least told us.

We can reschedule the wedding.

Grandma, do you know how shocked we were?

I see. Are you her granddaughter?

Yes.

I'm sorry that the wedding got canceled.

It's okay.

We can set a new date
after she's discharged.

You even canceled the wedding
because of your grandmother.

Well…

Of course.

How can we have a wedding
without the bride?

Sorry?

Well…

Look. She's not the bride.

It's me.

I'm the bride.

Think about it.

How could there be a wedding
without a bride?

The wedding will only happen if I'm there.

I canceled the restaurant
and photographer,

but I couldn't cancel these rice cakes.

That's great.

Yeong, please share these rice cakes
with the hospital staff.

They're all running around day and night

without even having a proper meal.

Give my beautiful doctor two…

No, three pieces!

Three?

Here you go.

Thank you.

-Thank you, ma'am.
-Sure.

Hey! Quick! They're changing it now!

What? Changing what?

Oh, my.

It's not you.

I knew it. None of his tips worked.

-"Talk warmly"?
-Did you guys actually believe him?

"Dear Nurse Oh Ji-young."

"You were always the first to come running

and eager to treat me
whenever I was in pain."

"Your actions were
a greater comfort than any words."

"I'd like to thank

all the other medical staff as well."

There you are.
"Other medical staff including Um Jae-il."

I even washed my hair to take a photo
and upload it on social media.

-That's great.
-Why?

Today is OB-GYN's photo day.
The yearly group photo.

Gosh.

Gosh, I hate it.

-Hello.
-Hello.

Is everyone here?

They should be coming.

You, the doctor at the very end.

Yi-young.

He's calling you.

Yes. Could you please come down one step?

Thank you.

Why are we taking this in May
instead of March?

To give time to those
who might've given up, quit, or run away.

It'd be awkward for both

those who've left and those who've stayed
if they're in the photo.

You can't cross out their faces.

Why isn't Gynecology here?

They have a conference with GS
that hasn't ended yet.

They should be here in five minutes.

Then could you take a photo
of just us first?

Obstetrics will take one first.

Should we do that?

Sir, please take one photo
of just us first.

Yes, ma'am. All right then.

Are all our residents here?

Where's Ku Do-won?

I don't see the chief resident.

I'm coming! We're all here.

Excuse me.

-Is everyone here?
-Yes.

Okay, I'll take it now.

Say "cheese" on the count of three.

Instead of "cheese,"

I'd like to suggest we say "wah-wah."

What is he saying?

I like it.

Let's say "wah-wah."

Make sure you say it. I'll be watching.

I don't think I can.

I have something else in mind.

Please say "wah-wah"
on the count of three.

One, two, three!

Wah-wah!

THANKS TO OUR SPECIAL GUESTS
MOON TAE-YU AND HA YOON-KYOUNG

RESIDENT PLAYBOOK

Knock, knock. I heard the news.

That you have the same taste as me.

Is he seeing anyone at the hospital?

Oh Yi-young.

Did anyone say
that they're interested in him?

Me too. I like them a lot.

Are you really that happy?

How could I not be? We're eating together.

There is one person.

Who is it?

Why don't you give it a try, Yi-young?

It's completely unfair.

Why give the opportunity
to someone who wants to quit?

What a waste of opportunity.

I can't do it alone.

Yi-young has definitely lost interest.

Professor Seo won't let this one slide.

Then who'll assist
Professor Seo's surgery?

Should I go?

We're friends, so please understand.

Why make friends when I'm quitting soon?

I'm sorry.

Whether we can do it or not
isn't for us to decide.

If it's for the mother and her baby,
we do it.

I hope the baby weighs
at least 2.7 kg at birth.

Please save my baby, Doctor.

Please. Let me meet my baby.

There is a cheat code I use
when I'm scared and terrified.
