[Episode 2]

Yong Pal, I guess our luck has run out. Let's stop.

Sir, what should we do with them?

There is no need to rush.

Those bastards, are they really...

Don't come any closer! Don't come any closer!

Yong Pal! Let's stop now!

I'm tired!

If you jump from there, you'll die!

What's that? What's in the syringe?

Epinephrine. If we jump from here without this, we'll die for sure.

Okay, okay...

If we take the shot, will we really...

We're going.

- Bring the boats! - Call them!

Can you see anything?

Wake up!

I said, wake up!

I can't see anything. I think they drowned.

No, I'm sure he made it.

I clearly saw him administering a shot earlier.

What kind of shot saves you from drowning?

How would you know?

There has to be something.

Otherwise, how could he have jumped without even a trace of hesitation?

When people are cornered, they'll try anything!

Some people drive drunk and jump off the bridge over Han River.

He had a lapse in judgment and jumped off.

Stupid bastards...

The water is one thing.

They probably died from a heart attack when they jumped off from that height.

Heart attack?

Injection?

You know, if something went wrong with my Bro

you guys will die too.

No, I don't know. Why would we die?

Why are we going through all this trouble now?

Yong Pal is taking care of my Bro right now!

What a weird way of thinking.

Even if your mouth got twisted like this, you should say the right things!

You forced him to take him, and now what?

If your Bro dies, then we'll die? What the--

This punk... Did you forget your fear?

I'm getting a call.

Yes, this is Man S--

Is this Yong Pal?

Yong Pal? What about my Bro?

- Are you safe? - My Bro, bastard!

South of Seongsu Bridge? Okay, I'll be right there.

Do you have a death wish?

You know who Yong Pal is. He's safe.

Let's hurry up and get there.

Bro!

Bro!

Yong Pal!

Bro, are you okay?

Are you okay?

Bro, are you all right?

I guess I look okay in your eyes?

What's this? Did you jump off?

You must be cold.

- What a relief! - I know, I know.

- Turn up the heater in the car. - Yes!

I'll take you.

Hey... Hey!

Crazy bastard.

What's that yellow head saying?

Let's go now. It's cold.

Be careful.

Why didn't you leave me behind and run?

I don't know. Leaving you behind doesn't suit me.

What an odd kid.

- Hey, hey... - Yes, Bro?

- Find out about him. - By "him", you mean...

Who else? Yong Pal, that guy!

Stop the car! Stop the car!

Now! Stop the car! Stop the car!

I said, stop the car! Stop the car!

- Hey, didn't you take my scalpel? - It's all in there.

Seriously...

Why? Is it an expensive one?

Are you stupid? The police will track me down with the scalpel!

You always hold it with gloves on.

Fingerprints are not the problem. There is a serial number on the scalpel.

And the police will track you down from that?

Yes.

- Hey, you have an inflated ego. - What?

I'll bet my hand and three months of interest

that they won't visit your hospital.

What will you bet on?

- What are you saying? - Did the police go mad?

Don't they have things to do?

They're busy enough chasing gangsters.

They'll trace your scalpel?

Who do you think you are?

- Right? - You're too funny.

- By the way, did you get it? - What now?

- The fee for the house call! - How can you ask that in this situation?

That's not right. I did what I was supposed to, so I should be compensated.

If they go to prison, how will I get it?

Yong Pal, is your dream to become a loan shark?

Make sure to get it. This is a big one.

And if I get caught for this...

it's really over.

Don't touch anything and get out!

- Why did you let him clean up? - I'm sorry.

Ah-ha! Yong Pal!

No! Doing that puts the patient at risk to lose more blood.

Keep giving oxygen and wait for me.

I'm in the parking lot. I'll be right there.

Why is he...

This is already the second fit this week.

- We've used the same drug for too long. - Did she build up a tolerance?

- Should we increase the amount? - No, that would be dangerous.

Check Mr. Kim Chul Soo's blood work

- and run a CBC. - Yes.

- Tae Hyun. - Yes?

You should assist the surgery today.

- What time... - Why? Do you have plans?

- Professor Park in the afternoon... - Professor Park? Park Moo Sung?

Why? Is Park Moo Sung nice to you these days?

No, it's not like that.

You punk...

Okay, I'll cancel it for you.

How dare he as a fellow?

You're reserved for the staff.

Wow, you're too kind.

You may go now.

Tae Hyun, come with me to the twelfth floor

to see the patient we operated on.

Yes.

Bye now.

Doesn't Chief favor Tae Hyun too much?

- Does it look like favoritism to you? - Of course!

- That's called "trade". - Trade?

It's a very temporary trade.

Have you ever seen a resident from another med school become a fellow?

Once his residency is over, Tae Hyun won't be in this hospital anymore.

He won't be assisting anymore.

I see.

- Let's go. - Please.

- Hey. - Hi, did you come for your rounds?

Yes, No. 27.

By the way, why do you look like that?

I came in early this morning after getting an emergency call.

Call? Oh my... Since you've been on the twelfth floor, you've become weak.

One emergency call and your dark circles are down to your neck.

And, you should have an assistant. Why does a Chief take an emergency call?

Stop saying nonsense. Take good care of the patient in No.27.

He's ranked pretty high in the financial circle.

Okay.

- But what about him? - Huh?

- We operated together. - Did you come to collect your fee again?

What's with you?

If you get caught one more time doing that with a VIP client...

get ready. And you should teach them properly.

Why? Did something happen?

Yes. I made a mistake with Chief Lee yesterday.

Why did you do that?

I'm sorry, Chief. Forgive me.

Yes! He seems to regret it deeply. Why don't you forgive him this time?

It's not like you'll never see him again... in the OR.

- Let's go. - Yes.

Yes. Really? I got it.

We don't even need the serial number or anything.

Hanshin Hospital is the only one in the country that uses that scalpel.

Really?

Okay!

Get a reading for the CT that was just taken.

Got it!

Are the results back for Mr. Kim Chul Soo's CBC?

Yes.

- Tae Yong. - Yes?

Do you know who Young Ae is? She's on the twelfth floor?

Young Ae? Lee Young Ae? Dae Jang Geum?

Dae Jang Geum?

Is that it?

Lee Young Ae is in our hospital...

That's not it. It's odd...

My goodness. Our doctors must've studied a lot to become doctors

but you lack common knowledge.

Do you know who Young Ae is?

"Young Ae" is the respectful way to refer to someone's daughter.

Especially someone with higher status.

It's usually used with a President, but it's also used in other cases.

Oh, that "Young Ae"? I see.

What? Now you're pretending that you knew all along?

Who doesn't know that?

I believe it's better to be stupid than dishonest.

What an odd guy. Just because you're stupid, why do you drag me down?

Really?

Okay, if the daughter is referred to as "Young Ae", then what's the term for son?

There should be a term for the son, too.

Don't tell him.

You're hopeless. Did you do the dressing for Patient Kim?

See? See? You are not honest.

What?

Fine, okay.

It was here somewhere. Here we go.

Here, take Patient Kim Young Shik. He's in the ICU.

ICU...

I don't want to! I'm too important to take those kinds of patients!

You think I'm not important enough to assign cases to you?

It's not that. But why assign me this one when we have so many juniors...

This is a punishment. For saying that I'm not honest.

Huh? What are you saying?

Ask Chief Nurse.

What did he mean?

The name is Kim Young Shik.

When you refer to someone's son in a respectful way, it's "Young Shik".

He's smart.

By the way, did some Young Ae check into our hospital?

What?

I saw it on the twelfth floor the other day.

The Chairman of the Group came.

And Chief Lee said "Miss Young Ae" and other things.

Really? I'm not sure.

So, she's a real VIP.

- Are you curious? If you're curious... - Do you really know?

Well, I don't lie too much.

If you're curious, just get me a latte. Not one from the convenience store.

No thanks.

That money bug.

I'll make him buy me some food somehow!

Just wait and see!

You're not a crazy girl.

You're a beggar.

Chief Nurse!

Where is Patient Kim Young Shik?

Excuse me, where is his guardian?

- He doesn't have a guardian. - He doesn't?

- Right, he has no family or friends. - What?

Seriously, did he go mad?

- Is this your patient? - Yes.

- You're finally coming to see him now? - I just got assigned to him.

Just now?

- They're too much. - What?

Don't you think? Because he has no family, he only got part of an emergency surgery.

He's been neglected. His abdomen wrapped up without stitches.

And his doctor shows up a full day later.

Excuse me, do you think he got a partial operation just because he has no family?

The surgeon must've had a reason. I'm sure he took care of him.

You mean, his internal organs are swollen

and there is a risk of tissue necrosis if you force it closed?

- Yes, you know very well. - Since you know so well

you also know that the initial surgery can be done without a guardian's consent.

But under hospital policy

he can't be operated on again without a guardian's consent.

So, you also know that this patient with no family can't have his abdomen closed.

His guardian will show up.

The only thing I know about this patient is that his name is Kim Young Shik.

He went to work as a day labor at a construction site

and fell from the fourth floor. He seems to be from China.

We asked around, but no one has shown up as a guardian.

And people at the construction site said it was his first day there.

Now, what are you going to do?

It's really weird...

Did I do it?

Did I push him from the fourth floor?

Also, did I operate on him?

Why are you getting mad at me?

Did you contact the administrative office?

If the patient has no family, we need to send him to a patient care facility soon.

In this condition?

[Patient Chart]

How nice would it be if other doctors were so cooperative in our work like you?

- Right? - Right?

Right!

We understand each other.

What are we supposed to do with a patient who doesn't make money?

Does a hospital work itself to death to keep the doors open?

You do have a business mind, Dr. Kim.

I'm sure you'll be successful!

By the way... when would this get done?

If we submit it today, maybe by tomorrow or the day after.

- Can we do this today, as a rush? - A rush?

That would be so great for us!

How much does it cost to admit a patient to the ICU overnight? You know that!

Manager, they're from the police.

Excuse us. We're from the criminal investigation team

of the Seoul Police Agency.

What crime could you have committed?

I'll consider the situation.

At most, you violated the Medical Service Act.

Reprieve. You know?

What is it...

It's about...

We came to ask a few questions about this scalpel.

Scalpel?

- Call the doctor now! - Yes!

This scalpel, used by a criminal suspect, is the one we use at our hospital?

That's right.

Dr. Kim?

- What should I do in this situation? - Pardon?

This is the scalpel you were using.

It's a joke! Why are you so shocked?

Excuse me, Sir.

Do you know how many scalpels are in this hospital?

Also, think about the number of people who use the same scalpel as this.

Doctors, nurses, sterilizers, even cleaners.

I guess this is funny to you.

Anyway, there is a serial number on this scalpel.

And we're sure that this scalpel was supplied to this hospital.

It doesn't matter if there are thousands of people who touched this scalpel.

I... need to know where it has been.

Should I get a search warrant or will you show me the equipment log?

Yes, this is Kim Tae Hyun.

Patient Kim Young Shik? Got it.

I have to go. Patient Kim Young Shik is arresting.

Oh my. Hurry up!

- Is he also a surgeon? - Yes.

Where have you been?

- The administrative office. - What?

The administrative office?

To request a transfer for this patient?

Yes.

You dirty scumbag!

Sir, please calm down!

People like you are hopeless.

Yes. This is how I am.

- Bastard... - So what?

- And you call yourself a doctor? - What?

- Are you really a surgeon? - Are you...

Say one more word!

I'm going to fire you no matter what it takes.

Hey. You take care of Patient Kim Young Shik.

Me?

Is he jealous?

I'm not a doctor?

Work hard. I'm leaving.

Really? You're leaving?

Didn't you hear Tae Yong?

He's your patient now.

Excuse me, Tae Hyun! Tae Hyun!

Are you feeling okay? If you wait here for a bit...

Oh my! Chief Lee! This way please.

This is Dr. Lee Ho Joon, Chief of the Surgery Department.

- This is... - Hello.

I'm Detective Lee from the Seoul Police Agency.

He has a few questions about a scalpel.

What's this? Why Chief Lee...

Scalpel?

- Dr. Kim! - Yes?

What happened to Patient Kim Young Shik?

Luckily, he came back.

Oh my. That's a relief.

What about the detectives? It looked like a headache.

Headache? Not at all.

I handed them over to the surgery department.

The surgery department?

Chief Lee.

I saw the record.

Chief Lee Ho Joon was Chief of the Surgery Department

when the scalpel was scrapped.

So, I sent them to him.

Take them!

- Good job. - Good job! Right?

Right? Take them!

Not my business!

It's true that my friend's company imported the scalpel.

But there were no kickbacks in the purchasing process.

The reason we came here has nothing to do with that.

If that's not it--

It's not about the new scalpels purchased.

I have questions about a scalpel that was scrapped because of the new purchase.

What do you need, Dr. Kim? Can I help you with anything?

Yes, I was wondering how the patient in No. 27 is doing.

- He's gotten a lot better. - I see. That's great.

- If you're curious, you can go in. - Okay.

If it's urgent, can I help you?

No, don't worry about it.

You should've told me that sooner.

When we scrap surgery tools

we donate them to schools for practice or hand them over to scrap services.

But surgery tools are not a bio hazard--

Bio had... what?

It means "biologically contaminated".

Anyway, sterilized surgery tools are not dangerous

so they're sometimes handed over as scrap metal.

Scrap metal?

But in this case...

1-0-0-3-1-5...

[Missing]

Let me see...

That become scrap metal.

- By "scrap metal", you mean... - It ended up in a junk shop.

By the way, why are you looking for it?

It was a stretch to look for Yong Pal with a scalpel.

Whether they sold it to a junk shop or donated to a school...

it got to Yong Pal from somewhere.

You should know what a stretch that comment is!

This is the end of the road for that clue. It's over, okay?

Isn't it really odd though?

Even if he gets caught, he'll only get six months maximum.

But he bet his life and jumped off the bridge...

Maybe...

- A real doctor? - Huh?

Think about it. If he's a real doctor

his medical license, as important as his own life, would be gone.

Anyone would be...

Right? It doesn't make sense.

Of course it doesn't!

Hello!

Chief Nurse.

Yes?

You should tell me what it is... What I did wrong.

- You don't know? - No, I don't know.

Even when others call you "money bug" or Scrooge, and make fun of you

the reason I can't do it is...

I'm sure you know why.

How you've been making a living so far

and how you lost your mother. Because I know.

She was hurt in an explosion at a construction site.

She was barely conscious at the site, but went into arrest during the transfer.

- What are her stats? - We performed CPR, but...

- How long? - About 10, 15 minutes?

- Then she's gone. Right? - Call it.

- You want me to pronounce her dead? - Why ask me?

Time of death, 8:42, June 17, 2012.

Hyun's mom! Oh my!

- Please calm down. - Doctor, please save her!

- Please save Hyun's mom! - We can't do anything now.

Please call her son! I'm begging you!

The guardian should call the patient's son. Why would we...

Her son is a doctor in this hospital! Please call him!

- A doctor in our hospital? - Yes!

Hey, transfer her now! What are you doing?

She is in arrest! Prepare the paddles! We have no time! Hurry up!

Careful! One, two, three!

Epinephrine!

You can't do it right? Huh?

What do I do about these chicks?

Hello? What?

- Kim Tae Hyun! - Yes?

My mom's here...

Your mom...

She's alive. Hurry to the OR.

Thank you!

Mom! Mom! Mom, what happened?

I'm fine. I'm fine...

Step aside. We don't have time for this.

- You're her son? - Yes, Professor.

Please, save my mom.

Your mother is lucky that I happened to be in the hospital.

- Don't worry. I saw the CT. - Thank you, Professor!

Thank you!

What is it? What's going on?

What? Really?

Then send over Fellow Park quickly!

I have an urgent patient, so I'll send another doctor here.

Professor, how can you just leave? What about my mom?

Professor?

We have a problem. There is no doctor who can perform surgery right now.

No, we can't hold out anymore.

- Hey, you, open her up. - What? Me?

Still, at least a professor should come. How can I...

Hey, no one is coming. It's not just a VIP. It's the highest VVIP.

All the scheduled surgeries have been canceled.

All of the staff and fellows have been called in. What are you going to do?

- Tae Hyun... - What do we do...

What do you mean? We have no time!

She already arrested. If it happens again, it's really over!

Another arrest.

Mom...

Mom!

Are you listening to me?

Forget it.

And?

What do you mean, "and"?

For Dr. Kim Tae Hyun who went through such a thing

I'd never imagine that you'd turn away from a patient like Kim Young Shik.

You thought the other way around.

If I hadn't gone through that

I would have brought up pseudo humanism, mentioning doctors and surgeons...

and would have stayed with Patient Kim Young Shik.

Pardon?

But it's too bad.

I realized too early that those things don't help at all in saving patients.

A hospital is not a place for charity.

My mother...

The reason my mother died...

It was because I was incapable.

And the only way to save Patient Kim is if his guardian shows up.

With lots of money.

What?

- Did I say anything wrong? - No.

Doctors save patients.

Money and guardians are cowardly excuses.

If you have a will to save the patient

I'm sure there is a way.

Chief Nurse, are you still so naive?

Should I tell you the real way to save Patient Kim Young Shik?

Transfer him quickly.

- Otherwise, there is no hope. - What?

Before I went to the administrative office, I went to the lab.

I twisted my friend's arm and put a rush on a bacterial culture.

That can't be done without insurance. You know that, right?

Anyway, as I expected, he has an infection.

- Why didn't you say so sooner... - Who would I tell?

This is the time to give him all the antibiotics we have.

But it's already administratively impossible for Patient Kim Young Shik.

Send him to national care quickly and have him get proper treatment.

That's the way to save him.

That's why I went to the administrative office.

What we can hope for now

is to get him transferred a day sooner if possible.

We can only hope that he hangs on until then.

With the 100 won antibiotics he's getting right now.

It'll be so delicious...

Tae Hyun, you just got a call from the twelfth floor.

- Go to Chief Lee's office. - Chief Lee? Why?

- Are you looking for me? - Yes.

Don't stand over there. Come have a seat, Dr. Kim Tae Hyun.

Yes.

Would you like a cup of tea, Yong Pal?

What? Is something wrong?

Yong... Pal.

Spare me, Sir.

Of course, it's exactly as I expected.

This attitude of yours, the innocent attitude toward life...

Anyway, I really like it. It's honest, clear, and intense.

It didn't even take a second to go from being cocky to being on your knees.

I deserve to die, Sir.

Now... what should I do?

Do I need to explain how I found out that you're Yong Pal after seeing the scalpel?

- No. - Then...

Should I threaten to call the police and hand you over to them?

No, Sir. You don't need to do that.

You can... just tell me what you want, Sir.

I can? Do you think there is anything I want from you?

If were the case...

you'd have already handed me over to the police.

- Cocky bastard. - I'm sorry.

I'll tell you what I want when I want it. Understood?

Yes. I got it, Sir.

Hello, Director. It's me.

How's your availability tonight?

I'd like you to interview the guy I mentioned earlier.

Yes. He's exactly the one we've been looking for.

Here. How's that? Do you like it?

He has no shame.

He's very calculating and selfish, enough to have "money bug" as his nickname.

He seems pretty smart.

That's why I think we can trust him.

I know about the rumors.

I heard he's good though.

Yes. He's made many house calls for gangsters.

So it looks like is skilled in treating external wounds.

How did you end up doing things like that?

I... needed money.

Hey, everyone needs money.

Even then, not all doctors make house calls for gangsters.

I deserve to die. Please spare me.

- How should I spare you? - I'll do anything you want me to do.

Just tell me.

- Really? Anything? - Tell me to do anything!

I'll work like a dog.

You'll work like a dog?

This guy is funny!

I mean it, Sir. Just spare me. I'll do anything.

Anything...

But what do we do? If you do what I tell you to do

you won't be able to work part time to make house calls to gangsters.

Yes, of course. How would I dare...

And let me see...

It won't be possible for you to hold a scalpel in the OR anymore.

Will you be fine with that?

Yes, that doesn't matter. Please spare me.

He had no pride as a surgeon to begin with.

Really? That's good then.

I like him. You can take care of the rest, Chief Lee.

Yes, I'll do that.

- Chief Lee, congratulations. - Thank you.

The sea bream is very fresh today.

You should have a glass too.

Yes, Sir!

You're so lucky.

What were you going to do after your residency?

I'm not sure. I hadn't thought about it yet.

Just be a doctor with a salary somewhere.

Doctor with a salary, my butt.

You'd have made house calls for gangsters.

Come to work on the twelfth floor starting tomorrow.

- Excuse me? - You'll become a fellow at our hospital.

And you'll be staff after that.

And you'll probably be the youngest Chief.

Pardon?

Just like I was.

Let's go.

And let me see...

It won't be possible for you to hold a scalpel in the OR anymore.

Will you be fine with that?

Yes. That doesn't matter. Please spare me.

He had no pride as a surgeon to begin with.

Hi, it's me. How are you?

You are? That's a relief.

Drink?

A little. Not that much.

Anyway, I got promoted. To the twelfth floor.

Hey kid, going from the sixth floor to the twelfth floor is a huge promotion.

You're clueless.

I don't need to operate anymore.

I will only deal with the VIP clients who come to the twelfth floor.

No, we don't call them "patients" on the twelfth floor.

They are "clients".

Hello?

What? Arrest? I'll be right there!

One, two, three, four, one, two, three, four!

Five, six, seven, eight, two...

He's back!

- What happened to him? - Can't you see? He's in cardiac arrest!

This is the second time this evening.

I don't think he will make it through the night.

It's really over if he has another arrest!

Over. Arrest?

They're not coming! It's not just a VIP. It's the highest VVIP!

- What do we do... - What do you mean? We don't have time!

She already had an arrest. If she has another one, it's really over!

Mom...

Mom!

Okay, let's do my last surgery.

I need to assist Professor Shin's operation tomorrow. I can't even sleep!

- I'll watch here. You can go rest. - What?

- Go upstairs and rest. I'll stay here. - Really?

- Why? - You don't want to?

No! It's not that... It's just a bit odd...

Tae Hyun, you've been drinking, haven't you?

Forget it. I'm leaving.

Tae Hyun, please. It's been a long time since you were nice to me.

How would I dare... Thank you, Tae Hyun!

What are you doing?

I want to get an X-ray of Patient Kim Young Shik.

What? X-ray?

Don't you think at all? An X-ray at this hour?

If you really need one, we have a C-arm here.

No, a C-arm is not enough. I need to go to the X-ray room.

Are you kidding me? He can't go! What are you doing?

- Do you really want to save this patient? - Do you even need to say it?

Then this patient needs an X-ray right now.

Patient Kim Young Shik has abdominal compartment syndrome.

Too much bleeding caused abdominal expansion.

So it's pressing down on the heart.

We need to suture the bleeding area

and cut out the necrosis.

What does this patient need most?

- Of course, surgery... - That's right!

It's X-ray.

So, now in order to stop the bleeding

lower his abdominal pressure, and cut out the necrosis

what do we need to do right now?

- Surgery... - No, that's not it.

No. According to hospital policy, we can't operate on a patient who can't pay.

But what is the thing that can be offered for free at the discretion of a doctor?

Right now...

- X-ray is the only thing. - So...

Oh my... Right, you're right!

- We should get an X-ray for him now! - Yes, that's right. X-ray!

That a dangerous surgery by yourself...

I mean, X-ray...

We have no time.

Get out. You'll get hurt.

You can't take this kind of X-ray by yourself.

[Surgery]

Miss...

Miss...

No...

Don't come any closer.

- Looking chic! - I don't need these.

For house calls. Ask the director of the hospital.

- About what? - Visiting the princess's room.

The first outsider I saw in three years.

I'll go in.

I wonder who he was?
