(Episode 2)

You asked if I need a job.

The thing is,

I need money.

How much can you give me?

You need money,

so you'll go into the OR for that?

That's how it sounds like. Am I right?

Yes.

If I offer a good price,

you'll sell yourself for anything?

If need be.

How much will you pay?

(Hope, Love, Service)

Help.

Please help.

Hello. That wasn't clear. What did you say?

It's my mom and dad.

They're not moving.

Can you tell me more about your situation?

I can't breathe.

Please help.

Can you confirm your location as Buam-dong?

What's your address?

Hello? Sir?

Hello?

I'm curious.

Why didn't you repair the diaphragmatic tear yourself?

(Diaphragm: muscle across the bottom of the ribcage)

I'm talking about the operation at Geodae Medical Center.

There was no need to call in another doctor.

I figured that a CS surgeon was better skilled to handle it.

Is that all?

What other reason do you need?

I'm just curious, that's all.

Maybe you didn't know how to do it yourself.

It's hot.

They were just baked in our office stove heater.

Would you like one?

Sorry. I don't eat carbs after 6pm.

Oh, I see.

You're truly disciplined when it comes to your health.

That's something I always have trouble with.

I can do it but I chose not to.

Why take on unnecessary responsibility?

No one's impressed by a pay doctor...

who plays hero anyway.

It's not like I'll be paid more.

Is this how you usually solve problems?

I was taught to do so to survive.

Then why did you expose your senior?

It doesn't make sense.

You don't want to be responsible,

and don't want to be noticed.

You just want to avoid the hassle,

and you blew the whistle?

I'm not here for counseling.

You asked me to name your price.

I must know the basics.

I was just naive.

A momentary lapse of judgment...

cut short my career as a doctor.

I regret it with all my heart right now.

Is that enough?

At the end of this corridor is the staff room.

There are no buses out now.

You won't have a place to stay, so tonight...

You haven't said...

how much you'll pay me yet.

Sleep in the staff room tonight and return to Seoul tomorrow.

- You want me gone? - Yes.

I think I got you wrong.

What are you doing?

You brought me here for this. Is this a joke?

Do you think I'm that sweet?

You said you need help!

What I need is a doctor!

I'll pay you for your troubles coming all this way.

Now get lost.

What am I doing here?

What?

Were you talking to me?

Are you going somewhere?

No. It's fine.

No. I'll help you.

I don't like others touching my belongings.

I see.

- Good job. - Same to you.

Thanks. Bye.

Manager Jang, you're still here.

I was interviewing the new doctors.

Oh, I see.

Oh, right. You left this earlier.

My extra fingers. Thank you.

- You're welcome. - Bye.

It's been a month.

What? What do you mean?

Dr. Bae Mun Jung.

He came to Doldam Hospital a month ago.

I got the feeling you were curious.

Me? I'm not.

Did he bring his family?

No. He came alone.

I heard he's newly single.

Newly single?

Mun Jung got divorced?

Do you want me to find out more?

No, well, you don't have to.

I see.

Yes. Okay.

Hello, Elizabeth.

I'm back. Were you bored, all alone?

I can't breathe.

Save me.

One week.

Give me one week.

I'm great in the OR if not anything else.

During that week,

I'll change your mind with my skills.

In my whole life, I never judged anyone with a price.

And I won't in the future.

I need 10,000 dollars.

Whether I'm paid in advance or loaned,

I don't care.

Make me 10,000 dollars for now.

Can you do that?

Why Seo Woo Jin?

His reputation within the hospital is just terrible.

He doesn't get along with others,

and he has character flaws.

Not long ago,

there was a rumor that he worked at a bar...

as a gigolo to pay his student loan.

Why don't you find someone else?

Can you do that?

Prove yourself then.

Within the week, show me why I must...

change my mind.

Then will you get me 10,000 dollars?

It'll be much harder than you think.

Will you really give me 10,000 dollars?

Okay.

How long will the joint training go on for?

About two-and-a-half hours.

You'll watch for an hour,

then you have a 30-minute strategy briefing.

Then we'll move to the next event.

Stop the car!

Mr. Park. Mr. Park, look up.

Head Peddler, report back. Head Peddler, report back.

This is Head Peddler. Code One. Code One!

Mr. Park, wake up. Mr. Park!

Hello. Good morning.

Hello. Good...

Who are you?

Hello.

I'm fourth-year EM resident Yun Ah Reum.

I was transferred to Doldam's ER.

I hope we all get along.

Welcome. I'm Oh Myung Sim.

She's the head nurse and the real big shot here.

And I am...

your high and lofty direct senior Jung In Soo.

I manned this ER all on my own,

feeling so lonesome.

That long time...

Dr. Yoon left only two months ago.

Exactly.

Those two months felt so long.

Anyway, I'm so pleased to have a comrade.

I'm full of cheer now.

I'm Uhm Hyun Jung.

I'm the Doldam's ER expert.

You can ask me anything you don't know.

I'm Joo Young Mi.

I'm also a newcomer who joined this hospital two months ago.

- And this is... - I'm Park Eun Tak.

I'm mostly at the ER when I don't have any operations to go into.

You're handsome.

Excuse me?

You do have a good eye.

He's the handsome guy in our hospital.

From grandmas to grade school kids, everyone loves him.

Now that we introduced each other, let's get to work.

- Ms. Joo. - Okay.

Perhaps because it's in the morning, we don't have many patients.

What...

What's wrong?

Did I say something wrong?

Well, Dr. Yun.

There's something you must not say in this hospital.

What is it?

It's what you just said.

That there aren't many patients?

Dr. Yun!

I'll politely ask you once again.

Do not ever say that here...

in our hospital.

Regardless of reasons or facts,

don't do it. Never.

Do you understand?

Okay.

Why? Why can we not say that?

That's our jinx.

What jinx.

The moment someone says that,

we suddenly become busy with emergency patients.

That's the frightening jinx of our hospital.

What?

Gosh, I thought it was something serious.

There's nothing like that in the world.

(Doldam Hospital)

I can't believe this.

I can't believe this.

Is it just me?

No, I bet it's the same for you.

Let me hear your reason first.

Why on earth did you come here?

Didn't you hear the rumor?

No, I didn't.

I got fired from the main hospital.

Why, this time?

What made you get fired again?

Ask Ho Jun. I'm curious about that too.

And why did you come here?

Didn't you hear the rumor?

No, I didn't.

Some GS surgeon insisted...

he wouldn't deal with diaphragm tear.

I was forced to operate two times in a row and passed out.

I was literally knocked down.

Hey, that's not true.

You fell asleep.

No, I fainted.

I overworked way too much from two days ago.

And I was struck with a cold too.

How will you explain your snoring?

- Do you have proof? - Everyone in the OR heard it.

Should I send them a group text?

Do you even have their numbers?

It's not a big deal to get their numbers.

I know no one is close enough to tell you that.

It won't have any problem checking the fact.

Goodness, you're unbelievably annoying.

What are you doing?

What? What are you trying to pull?

Go away.

Sleep.

What?

You have sleep in your eye.

Darn.

Who...

Hello, sir.

I'm Cha Eun Jae, the second-year CS fellow.

I see. You're the new doctors who came yesterday.

Who are you?

What's wrong?

He's our senior from college.

He's a general surgeon.

His name is Seo Woo Jin. We're from the same class.

So you guys are my juniors.

I'm orthopedic surgeon Bae Mun Jung.

- It's good to see you, juniors. - Me too.

I guess you came to work now.

Right, I'm a little late.

Gosh, sir. Please drop the honorifics.

We're years behind you.

[VIU Ver] SBS E03 'Dr. Romantic S2' "Prove Yourself" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

We have an emergency patient. Aren't you coming with me?

Coming!

(Emergency Medical Center)

Hello, this is Master Kim of Doldam Hospital.

Gosh, hello. What's the occasion?

What?

We need you to vacate the ER completely.

The whole ER?

We can't do that.

This is an inevitable situation. We need your cooperation.

I see. I understand.

You're working for someone big. Of course...

No.

I understand your situation,

but we can't let you take control over the ER.

It's the Minister we're talking about.

I get that,

but we can't send other emergency patients away.

It's the principle of our hospital.

Who on earth is here?

It's the Minister of National Defense.

What? The Minister of National Defense?

Wait, who are you?

They are new doctors here.

Oh, it's good to see you.

- I'm the EM doctor, Jung... - Ms. Oh.

The ambulance will arrive with the Minister in two minutes.

Now please leave.

We have to get ready to treat the patients.

This is for the smooth treatment for the Minister.

Step aside.

It's better you do that for now.

Let's go for the sake of the Minister.

There, let's go.

Eun Tak, call Master Kim.

Have enough of warm saline ready...

along with a central line.

- Okay. - Okay.

Ms. Oh, they are the new doctors.

Hello, I'm Cha Eun Jae, a second-year cardiac surgeon.

I'm general surgeon Seo Woo Jin.

I'm Oh Myung Sim, the head nurse.

- And I... - We're expecting patients...

who got injured in a car accident on a highway nearby.

The driver died on the spot.

The one in the passenger seat and the Minster in the back seat...

are in major trauma.

Especially, the Minister didn't have his seatbelt fastened,

so he's has a blunt abdominal trauma with abnormal vital signs.

Get things ready.

Dr. Yun, have MAC catheter and sonography ready.

Oh, a chest tube too.

Yes, doctor.

Hello, this is Do Yun Wan.

It's been a long time.

Please don't say that.

I've returned safely thanks to your concern.

Yes.

This morning?

Oh, dear. And?

To Doldam Hospital?

The Minister is here.

- Dr. Jung. - Yes?

What are his vital signs?

His blood pressure was 100 over 80 at first,

but it dropped to 80 over 40 on the way.

What about the saturation?

We've kept it full from 88 percent.

Insert an IV line on both of his arms for warm saline.

Bring me a reservoir mask.

Yes, doctor.

Those new doctors are quick to respond.

Don't you think so, Dr. Jung?

- What are you doing, Ah Reum? - Yes, doctor.

Have a FAST ready too.

The patient is here!

What are his vital signs?

BP, 110 over 70. HR, 115. It's comparably stable.

But he's suffering from the pains in his right shoulder and leg.

Dr. Bae.

Yes, I'm coming.

Slowly.

We'll run an OP laboratory test as soon as the IV lines are inserted.

Yes, doctor.

We'll cut your shirt open, sir.

It's way worse than I thought.

- What's his blood pressure now? - It's 80 over 40.

Do you hear me, sir?

It might not be so easy.

If there's anything I need to know,

do explain it to me.

Is he taking any medication?

- Stand by at the gate. - Yes, sir.

The sonograph is here.

It's a massive hemoperitoneum.

Both his liver and spleen are damaged.

Let's check his chest too.

Checking BLUE protocol. Seems normal.

And the PLAPS point...

(PLAPS: Posterolateral alveolar or pleural syndrome)

There's bleeding.

A blunt injury, hemothorax, hemoperitoneum,

unstable vitals,

and the patient is the Minister of National Defense.

What a first day.

His saturation is dropping.

Minister. Minister?

I'll intubate. Eun Jae, get a line ready.

You do it and I'll intubate.

There's no time to argue.

Seriously? What's taking you so long?

I'm in.

Are you having issues? Need me to step in?

You can take it out now.

Secure it at 21cm.

Have two packed RBC sent up in case of an emergency...

and then prepare 10 more as well as 10 packs of FFP.

- Yes, Doctor. - Do you have a RIS?

- Yes, we do. - Good.

We'll get a CT scan first then.

Forget the CT scan and send him to the OR.

His BP and saturation dropped, so Dr. Seo intubated.

The sonograph revealed a hemothorax and hemoperitoneum.

We must open him up and stop the bleeding first.

Without a CT scan?

No way.

Where's Dr. Nam?

He said he'll wait in the OR.

Ms. Oh, you should head there right now...

and have the OR prepped.

Yes, Doctor.

I brought the blood.

You'll operate without taking a CT scan first?

There's a higher chance of him going into cardiac arrest...

while prepping him for a CT scan.

We can buy enough time...

by pumping him fresh blood.

Have you had to do damage control before?

- No. - Every second is vital here.

Dragging it out by sticking to ever protocol...

will only end up killing him.

Mr. Park, transfer this patient to the OR.

Woo Jin, you'll be backing me up.

You have five minutes to get ready and meet me at the OR.

Go.

Yes, Doctor.

Dr. Yun?

And who are you?

I'm second-year CS fellow Cha Eun Jae...

who was transferred here yesterday.

I doubt you remember me, sir.

Have you treated a hemothorax before?

Yes, of course.

I'm a second-year attending.

I have zero tolerance for those who faint or doze off in an OR.

If I ever catch you in that state...

Speak up now if you can't do this.

No, I'm fine, sir. I can do it.

Then meet me at the OR in five minutes too.

You are not to enter unless I call you.

Yes, Doctor!

How did he know that I collapsed in the OR?

It's fine that he knows, but did he have to say it...

in front of everyone?

Darn it. Unbelievable.

Darn.

(Men's Room)

Are you joining the surgery too?

You think it'd only be you?

This time,

I won't carry you out.

This is driving me crazy.

It's your first surgery at this hospital.

I hope we get along.

Nice to meet you, Dr. Seo. I'm Nam Do Il.

Hi, I look forward to working with you too.

I guess you're lucky when it comes to work.

Can you believe that your first operation here...

would be on the Minister?

Don't be too nervous though.

We're all veterans here.

(Operation Room, Elevator)

Where's the Minister?

He's in critical condition...

and is now in the OR.

You bring him to this dump when he's in critical condition?

Stop the operation and call a helicopter.

We will transfer him to Seoul.

Then he'll die en route.

I'm Master Kim of Doldam Hospital.

I just got off the phone with Doctor Hong...

of the Seoul Military Hospital.

He also agreed on the Minister's emergency surgery.

Yes, I ordered the men to take the Minister there.

There's massive bleeding in his abdomen.

Waiting any longer will danger his life.

If you wish for him to live,

you'll let Master Kim conduct the surgery.

That's your one and only option.

Shouldn't you head over to Doldam Hospital?

Sir?

It's fine. Maybe I will later on.

But it's the Minister.

I also heard he's in critical condition.

He won't be left to die though.

Boo Yong Joo...

would never pass up on an opportunity like this.

Although, the surgery seems like a tough one.

The Minister has angina.

He's been taking aspirin for the past two years.

He'll be bleeding intensively and hemostasis will be tricky.

Considering his age and the risks of this surgery,

I'm not sure if I can...

ask you to do this.

Master Kim, it's the first operation in the new OR.

Also, the first patient is the Minister.

If this isn't a good sign for the hospital, I don't know what is.

Don't get ahead of yourself.

Our first surgery could be our very last.

What? I mean...

I'm curious.

Who will this surgery...

serve as an opportunity for?

(Alprazolam)

Due to massive trauma to the abdomen,

he is suffering from both a liver and spleen injury.

His BP is low and his oxygen saturation level...

is unstable because of the left hemothorax.

He could go into cardiac arrest the moment we open him up.

Are you sure about this?

Today, we'll focus on damage control first...

and then his bleeding.

After a splenectomy,

we'll do a perihepatic packing.

Then after we monitor him, we'll conduct a second surgery...

within 48 hours.

You may begin.

He has massive bleeding in the abdomen.

There will be blood everywhere.

Ms. Oh, prepare enough large tape...

and several abdominal suction tubes.

Scalpel.

Suction.

Bovie.

His BP is dropping.

Large tape.

Keep the suction going.

We finally have a visual.

We will wrap up the splenectomy in five minutes.

- Fine minutes? - Splenic artery.

Forceps.

Right angle.

Give me another.

Metz.

I didn't expect this level of speed.

Are you just going to stand there and gawk?

Crile.

I'm sorry. Can I have another one?

I thought surgery was your comfort zone.

Don't tell me that this is all you've got.

Cut.

Clip.

Bovie.

Okay.

Next, we'll move on to the liver.

Bovie.

My gosh. He has fast hands.

Why else would he be known for having the hands of a deity?

Dr. Cha, you're requested in the OR.

There's too much bleeding.

His liver must nearly be severed.

Bipolar forceps.

- Tie. - I'll do it.

Cut.

Bipolar forceps.

Bovie.

Suture.

He's bleeding wherever we touch.

It's due to the aspirin he's taking.

Aspirin?

Cut.

A patient taking aspirin is now suffering from a massive hemorrhage?

How am I supposed to stop the bleeding?

Clip.

Smaller vessels won't be manageable with clips though.

Spray topical hemostatic agents,

pack him up,

and then we'll stitch him up during the second OR.

This is unheard of.

Am I just supposed to follow his lead?

Gauze.

CS. Is the cardiac surgeon here?

Yes, I'm here.

Insert the tube.

Yes, Doctor. Hand me the tube, please.

Scalpel.

You can do this, Eun Jae. You've got this.

Kelly.

The amount?

600cc, Doctor.

600cc?

There must be another bleeder.

What should we do, Master Kim?

800cc.

(Elapsed time: 1 hour 30 minutes)

(Time under anesthesia: 1 hour 40 minutes)

What is he going to do? No way...

Master Kim.

Master Kim?

Is this surgery doomed?

Master Kim.

Master Kim.

Is this surgery doomed?

The intercostal vessel.

(Intercostal vessels are between the ribs.)

We'll open his chest.

Let's see from there.

But there are no indications...

It's the aspirin.

The blood won't clot.

We must save every drop we can.

Dr. Nam, vitals?

The transfusion's keeping up.

He's stable at about 80.

We'll position the patient right semi-decubitus.

Okay.

(Right semi-decubitus: Positioning the right side higher)

What? Everyone's going along with this crazy operation?

Dr. Cha, are you all right?

I'm sorry. I'm...

Seo Woo Jin. Move.

Scalpel.

Retractor.

Suction.

Suction!

I found it.

No way.

It was intercostal vessel bleeding.

(Intercostal vessels are between the ribs.)

This guy.

He's really insane.

Clip.

Dr. Cha.

Are you sick?

- Dr. Cha. - I'm fine.

I'm okay.

Yes, he was transferred to the ICU just a while ago.

Yes, it won't be easy.

Yes.

His vital signs aren't dropping any more.

Watch him closely.

If his vital signs become unstable even for a bit...

or he shows any unusual symptoms, call me right away.

Call me right away.

Yes, doctor.

I'll keep checking on him too.

Okay. Please do that.

Okay.

- Dr. Jung. - Yes?

How did it go with the other patient?

Did you say he's the Minister's aide?

Yes, according to the CT scan,

his spleen is slightly damaged,

but it doesn't seem its capsule has ruptured.

The bleeding isn't too serious either,

so we've decided to observe him in the ICU for now.

The amount of bleeding could hike all of a sudden.

Then we'll have to operate on him right away, so watch him tightly.

- Yes, doctor. - Thanks.

No problem.

I'm Jang Gi Tae. Would you like some beverages?

It's for free.

Would you like some beverages?

No?

I'm Manager Jang Gi Tae.

Here. The Minister will be all right.

Manager Jang! Can I have a moment with you?

- What is the matter? - Well...

You need to see this.

(GS Park Min Guk)

Hello, this is Park Min Guk of Geodae Medical Center.

This is Do Yun Wan.

Oh, hello.

How may I help you?

("Minister Ryu Woong Il of National Defense Got into a Car Accident")

Yes, I'm reading it now.

It's not included in the article,

but the Minister is currently at Doldam Hospital.

He was in critical condition,

so Boo Yong Joo operated on him.

But the Minister's aides...

are deeply worried.

What is it...

that you want to say?

I'd like...

to recommend you as his doctor in charge...

since you're the most competent one in Geodae Medical Center.

What do you think?

What are you doing here?

I told you to watch the patient in the ICU closely.

What is it?

About your intercostal vessel operation earlier...

How certain were you?

What are you saying?

It's the Minister, not some nobody.

You should've chosen a safer way.

I don't care whoever he is,

whatever he does, or whatever position he's in.

He's just a patient to me the moment he was brought into the OR.

I don't think about anything else.

I just have this one thing in mind.

"I will save him. I will save him no matter what."

Does that mean you can do anything as long as you can save him?

He left his life up to me to survive.

So I should save him.

Is that why you conducted that reckless operation?

What?

You found out that it was intercostal vessel bleeding...

without even getting a CT scan.

It was all thanks to your gut feeling and luck.

What if your gut feeling was wrong, and you were unlucky?

What could've happened to the Minister then?

What's with you?

Why are you suddenly acting like you're a doctor?

I thought you only needed to take 10,000 dollars.

I know.

I came all the way here because of money,

but now that I watched your operation,

I'm getting a little scared...

I might be holding onto a rotten lifeline again.

Who says I'm your lifeline?

I haven't decided on anything yet.

Even a day hasn't passed...

of the week you promised.

And you haven't been able to change my mind even for a bit.

You know that?

Thanks to my gut feeling and luck?

If that's all you saw,

it means you aren't any better either.

What does that mean?

Find the answer yourself.

(Staff Only)

Good work.

You've gone through big trouble.

Oh, no.

I barely managed to stop the bleeding.

You don't have to behave humble even to me.

I know more than anyone else just how skilled you are.

Oh, right. Did you meet the one we talked about before?

Yes, he was in the OR with me today.

He's one talented guy.

I don't know. That could be everything of that punk.

And it's our job...

to turn such a punk into a doctor.

I'll call you again.

("A Bankrupt 40-year-old Man Commits Suicide with His Family")

("The Full Story of the Jongno-gu Family Suicide Case")

(Seo and Yu were found dead. Their son was taken to the hospital.)

("Why Did They Make Such a Drastic Decision?")

Please...

Dr. Cha.

What are you doing here?

Well, I came to see Master Kim.

- He's not in his office? - Goodness, wait.

He's in his office,

but he seems a little busy right now.

Why are you standing there?

You said you have something to tell me.

Go ahead and tell me.

Well...

Actually,

I had an upset stomach...

because of the bread I had in the morning.

I should've taken better care of me before the surgery.

I apologize for my poor job at the first operation.

I'm really sorry.

Well, you seem busy.

I'll get going now.

Why did you come here?

Pardon?

What kind of mistake did you make that you got kicked out to here?

I didn't get kicked out.

There are two options in which I can punish you.

Either be suspended...

or work off your suspension at our branch hospital.

Our branch hospital?

Doldam Hospital in Jeongseon.

I chose to come here.

Is that a habit of yours?

Why do you keep beating around the bush...

instead of answering my question?

I've never done that.

Is it that hard to admit to it honestly?

Why?

Would it hurt your pride if you get caught?

Or are you worried people might look down on you?

I don't understand what you mean.

Right, you don't.

And that explains your life.

From this moment on, you're banned from my OR.

I can't operate with a doctor who leaves her patient...

and runs out.

I already explained that I had an upset stomach.

Don't even think about making excuses.

Doctors should not bring their personal issues into the OR.

I don't care if you were sick or you vomited...

because of your anxiety issues.

You leaving your patient...

already disqualifies you as a doctor.

A CS surgeon with issues like that?

You really think you're qualified to cut open someone's heart?

Who are you trying to kill?

If you can't get over it, just quit being a doctor.

Did you have to be so harsh?

You could've said it in a nicer way.

They're both menaces, that's why.

One only steps into an OR to make money...

and the other...

runs out of the OR leaving her patient on the table.

Young doctors these days...

won't learn if you push them hard.

They'll only call you old-fashioned.

So I should sugarcoat my opinions...

just to receive a good review?

I won't do that. I don't have the time for it either.

What if both doctors pack up and leave?

Then I guess...

they weren't Doldam materials.

But it wasn't easy bringing them here.

Am I wrong?

[VIU Ver] SBS E04 'Dr. Romantic S2' "Unwelcome Guest" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

It's water.

Thanks, Dr. Yun.

This isn't who I am, you know.

You see,

I worked really hard to get here.

Ever since I enrolled in medical school,

I haven't slept for more than four hours a day.

When others ate and then took a dump,

I kept on studying at the library while suffering...

from constipation.

I've shed about a liter of blood from my nose.

I worked my butt off to graduate second in my class...

and finished third place at the CS department.

But now,

after being kicked to this dump of a small hospital,

I was told to quit being a doctor.

I doubt he truly meant it.

It's unfair.

I'm sorry for the time I wasted...

so that I could wear a doctor's gown one day...

and I feel like all my hard work has been for nothing.

You should say that.

Don't you know that you're our role model?

Who is?

Me?

You know how Dr. Oh at CS is an obnoxious sexist.

So watching you hold your head up high beneath him...

taught us to be half the doctor you are.

You have no idea how many female doctors look up to you.

Also,

you were scouted by a genius.

Scouted?

By whom?

You don't know, do you?

You have no idea who requested you here.

And here I thought I finally had one decent attending.

She may be a woman,

but she's smarter than most of the other guys.

She received good grades too.

Her research paper is even better than some professors.

It's beyond me why she gets tense in the OR.

She's a second-year fellow, right?

How about you send her over to me?

What use do you have for a surgeon who can't operate?

If she ends up causing trouble in the OR,

she'll have to give up her license.

- So send her to me. - Gosh.

No way.

It's true.

I heard them talk.

They'll leave, right?

Dr. Seo or Dr. Cha?

Both.

Why do you think they'll quit?

Young people these days...

hate condescending old people like Master Kim.

They hate to be corrected and hate being told what to do.

Most of them draw a line and never go the extra mile.

That's not always the case.

Some young doctors are hardworking and devoted.

Dr. Seo...

has fast hands and a good attitude.

Right?

So here you are. I've been looking for you.

Me?

Yes. Here.

It's the medication for pain and inflammation.

I was told to give you this.

By whom?

I don't know. I was asked not to tell by Master Kim.

(Medication)

Dr. Seo,

I already gave a note to the X-ray department.

Go ahead and take one of your chest.

An X-ray?

I was told to see if you have any broken ribs.

By whom?

Master Kim.

He said you were in pain during the operation.

(Doctor's Office, Master Kim)

Thanks to my gut feeling and luck?

If that's all you saw,

it means you aren't any better either.

What does that mean?

Find the answer yourself.

(Doldam Hospital)

(Doldam Hospital)

(Emergency Medical Center)

Of course I'm fine.

The hospital isn't as bad as I thought it would be.

What? What about my voice?

Don't be absurd. I didn't cry.

You know how it's colder at night in the countryside.

It must be why I have a stuffy nose.

Of course I'm fine.

I operated on the Minister on my first day of work.

The doctors here...

are already claiming that I'm irreplaceable.

Mom, I should go. I'll call back later.

Which one do you want?

Coffee with milk and sugar.

(Milk coffee)

And the queasiness.

Are you better now?

Yes, of course. I'm good.

Do you want to take it first?

No, thanks. I only drink black coffee.

(Black coffee)

Bye then.

Bye.

Hey.

Master Kim.

What do you think he's like?

I was told to give you this by Master Kim.

Go ahead and take one of your chest.

- By whom? - Master Kim.

Who cares what he's like?

I just need to make money.

- Why do you ask? - Out of curiosity.

Is he just an ill-tempered old man or...

Or what?

Never mind. See you.

Dr. Seo, you should come over.

Who's here?

Someone called Park Min Guk is here from Geodae Medical Center.

But he didn't come alone.

Professor.

Nice to meet you.

I'm surgeon Park Min Guk from Geodae Medical Center.

So what?

You haven't heard anything yet...

from Chairman Do?

I think he means President Do Yun Wan.

What about him?

What did he say?

As of this moment,

he put me in charge of everything regarding Minister Ryu.

Did he say that...

he'll transfer to you...

a patient I operated on without my approval?

Yes. I said that.

It's been a while.

How've you been?

Gosh, you slimy little thing.

You really came back.

I said I would.

You got kicked out in disgrace.

You should've moved somewhere to live in hiding.

Why come back here when there's nothing to take?

Are you that bored?

I returned because there's a lot to do.

But then,

what would the likes of you know?

You don't know how to coexist with power,

or how to coexist with politics.

But I know very well...

who stuck a straw in someone else's back...

just to live like a parasite.

Watch your language.

I'm the chairman of Geodae Foundation's board.

What did he say?

- He's the chairman of the board. - What?

Chairman of the board.

Chairman of the board?

So what about it?

What am I to do about that?

As of this moment,

all medical treatment regarding Minister Ryu...

will be done by Professor Park Min Guk.

No one from Doldam Hospital...

is allowed to get in his way.

If you disobey,

you will be reprimanded accordingly.

What if, as his doctor,

I do not agree with that?

Your agreement isn't needed.

You just follow my instructions.

If you don't want to, leave.

Which is it?

Your livelihood...

or your pride?

Dr. Nam.

- Dr. Nam - What is it?

Well... Cars from all sorts of media outlets passed by.

Journalists?

Are they shooting a drama nearby?

They were headed to...

Doldam Hospital.

Doldam...

It's a member of staff!

- Stop her! - Excuse me!

How is the minister? Please say something.

- How is Minister Ryu? - Is it true he's still here?

Is it true that Minister Ryu is at Doldam Hospital?

How badly was he hurt?

Is it true he had surgery?

How gravely injured was he?

(Emergency Medical Center)

(Doldam Hospital)

BP is stable at 90 over 60,

but his temperature's up to 38.9℃.

Urine?

10 to 15cc per hour.

Put him on propacetamol...

and get a chest portable.

Keep checking his input, output, and temperature.

- I'll get Master Kim. - Okay.

Seo Woo Jin?

You're down here?

What brings you here?

I'm the minister's doctor now.

I'm sorry but...

I've heard nothing yet.

It was just decided. You'll hear about it downstairs.

Hand things over to Dr. Yang and step aside.

Until the operating surgeon says so,

I cannot leave the patient.

Hey. Seo Woo Jin.

Doctor. His BP is dropping.

Didn't you hear the professor?

He's in charge of the minister's treatment now.

You can back down.

I can't leave until the operating surgeon says so!

What's wrong with you?

(Doldam Hospital)

There are reporters and cars all over the place. What now?

They're asking how the Minister is.

Master Kim.

Did you call them?

Wait and see. It'll get really exciting.

What should I do?

Master Kim!

How is Minister Ryu right now?

(Epilogue)

Do you want to take it first?

No, thanks. I only drink black coffee.

This time,

I won't carry you out.

Cha Eun Jae.

Darn it. Will you wake up?

Bye then.

Bye.

(Dr. Romantic 2)

People of Doldam. Those jerks insist on fighting us head-on.

Professor. Here...

- Why you... - Don't!

Dig into Cha Eun Jae.

I think you and I can go back to Geodae Medical Center.

Will you really let them take the Minister?

Will you be responsible if something goes wrong?

Can you save him?

Will you really not return with me?

What Do Yun Wan never considered.

We must use it.

Do Yun Wan already knows...

everything about you and Doldam Hospital.

There are things he doesn't know.
