Jin Hee? You even failed the driver's license exam three times.

You couldn't handle a kitchen knife. What will you handle a scalpel?

I will do it.

I will try until I'm recognized.

This woman isn't joking around.

I don't think I could have done it without you.

I was the one who held the scalpel.

(Episode 7)

Jin Ae, you...

Jin Hee? Are you okay?

What are you doing?

Seriously...

But what are you guys doing here?

Just who are you?

How dare you ruin a good concert?

Are you crazy?

Sorry, she drank a lot. Can we talk for a minute?

She is someone I know.

She borrowed money from me and hasn't paid me back, so...

How much was it that you practically threw yourself at her?

Well, it's a small amount.

What about you guys?

We're just having a drink, you know.

Then what about you two?

- What? - Us?

We are on a date.

Really? You guys are in that kind of relationship?

"That kind of relationship?" Don't get any strange ideas.

Don't drink too much and go home early.

You know that you're expected to be there at 6am tomorrow.

- Yes. - Yes.

We are leaving. Have fun, guys.

Chief! When you leave, can you take care of our bills too?

Am I your chief only in situations like this?

- Fine! - Nice! Thank you very much!

I should also...

What?

Well, since we got together somehow, let's have some drinks, okay?

Excuse us!

I have something for you.

Here.

What are these?

The hospital is basically your home. I bet you're sick of the food there.

I got you some snacks, the ones you might like.

What a useless thing to do.

You got that much time in your hands?

No way.

I took time out just to cook, so make sure you savor every bite.

I had so much of the hospital food...

to the point that I'm fine with it now. I'm already used to it.

Then should I call you over after I make dinner?

Is saying things like that easy to you? Is it?

Do you think I'm that easy?

You are the strange one for thinking that things should be difficult.

And you didn't even ask me where I got my new apartment...

I bet it's somewhere nice near the hospital with a view, right?

Correct.

If you're tired, you can sleep over whenever you want.

- Do you want a copy of the key? - Hey, come on!

Goodness.

That's enough. I'm taking off now.

I wonder if it would kill you to just thank me for the food.

Bravo!

What's up with you, Chang Min?

If you sent me over instead, why did you come anyway?

I figured you would be around, so I dropped by.

I asked you out on a date, and you sent a substitute?

I thought you were getting a revenge on me.

Revenge? What revenge?

You don't need to know.

Man, there are so many things that I don't know.

- It was fun still, right? - Sure.

Ah Reum looks so different outside of work.

She looks quite good.

You aren't half bad yourself, Yong Gyu.

But Chang Min looks wonderful wherever he is.

I doubt I'm quite that wonderful.

Hey, you got a cut here.

Where?

- Gosh. You should've been careful. - What should we do?

Let me take a look.

- I'm fine, really. - You don't look fine to me.

It's not a serious wound. Don't worry about it.

Come on, how can you...

- Does this hurt when I press here? - No.

How about now?

I'm telling you I'm fine.

Are you sure? What if there is a fracture?

I... I'm going to the bathroom quickly.

That silly girl.

Excuse me, I have something that I want to ask.

Do you think you can give me the vocalist's contact information?

Actually, I'm her older sister.

You should report it to the police if you want to find her.

Don't bother us with it, okay? We have no reason to tell you.

Well, could you tell me if she will work again tomorrow?

Why would she show up to a place where her sister went all crazy?

I'm sorry.

Hey, are you really okay?

Yes, I'm going to leave now.

Did you resign?

Is that what you wanted to ask?

Yes. Why did you do such a thing?

Is it because you were going to get fired?

Why does it matter to you? You wanted me gone anyway.

But it's not right to quit! It wasn't our fault, you know.

Our fault?

I have no power. At least your family has connections.

Hey, Jin Hee.

Why? Just keep it on.

No, thanks. I'll be fine.

I'm sorry I ruined your date.

Why don't you go comfort her?

It wasn't a...

I told you, there was something up between those two.

I'm such a keen observer! They are seeing each other for sure.

- Just forget about them and... - I have to get going.

Let's leave together then.

See you.

You want to leave too?

Man, we didn't have fun yet. And I was just getting warmed up.

See you.

Why don't the two of us get a drink?

I saw you and Chang Min speak informally earlier.

Did we do that?

You two must have gotten pretty close.

You are mistaken.

Or maybe, you were already close since before.

You guys used to hang out or something, right?

Well...

I'm not sure why I need to be interrogated like this.

So, are you interested in Chang Min?

Yes.

I see.

Well, don't worry. He and I aren't dating.

But why do you guys speak informally?

Chang Min isn't the type who would easily do that.

You know him so well already?

No, not really.

But after today...

He became somebody I wanted to get to know more.

I didn't know he was going to be so rude to me today.

That's just how is, that jerk.

You said you guys aren't that close, yet you know so much about him.

Taxi!

Why did that taxi go to her? Hey!

Chang Min, take it easy please!

We need to be at work by 6am tomorrow.

Is this about that incident?

What incident?

We all thought you did it at first.

But it was Jin Hee who held the scalpel, right?

That's right. Jin Hee did everything.

It's okay that you didn't do it. We're only interns after all.

You're right. We're still just interns.

But Yong Gyu...

Jin Hee was able to do it, and I wasn't.

What kind of incapable doctor am I?

Come on.

Do you think that was all?

Mom was in a critical condition, and I couldn't do anything.

I didn't know anything either. What kind of doctor I am?

Jin Hee did everything!

Do you know that?

Chang Min!

You're pretty drunk.

Let's get going. Come on, get up.

So, that's why...

You have to stop talking about Magic Hands or whatever.

Don't go around and call me such a thing ever again.

But you're still the best to me.

Professors can be awesome, sure...

But you're just an intern who is miles ahead.

You're the best, Chang Min!

That's my opinion.

Be careful!

Let's go!

By the way, what are you going to do about Ah Reum?

You have to set limitations for me so that I can...

Go! Go...

All right. Good night!

Go!

Hello?

Are you sleeping?

Who is this?

Thank you for saving my mom.

She didn't thank you, right?

You know Mom. She doesn't know how to say things like that.

What are you saying?

I'm sorry.

Hello? Chang Min?

Why is he calling me when he's drunk?

You are so troublesome.

If you donate over 10 dollars, then this vase is yours.

- 10 dollars? - Yes.

- Thank you. - Have a nice day.

(Children's Cancer Fund, Share Your Care)

Yong Gyu, what are you up to?

- I'm contemplating? - About what?

You don't think about this. You just do it.

Even in this cold weather, these flowers are alive.

Are you talking nonsense this early in the morning?

Get it together!

Chang Min, aren't you taking a vase?

Isn't it time for you to go?

I will get going.

- You go on ahead. - Yes.

I told you I don't want to! How many times must I tell you?

Why don't you want to do something that the country is encouraging?

I don't mean two or three kids, I just mean...

Then you should have asked me first! Don't you think about birth control?

Hey, what are you fighting about this early in the morning?

- Listen to this. She is... - Stop talking about it!

We agreed we wouldn't talk about our home life at work.

After you spilled the beans all on your own...

Do I sense a crack somewhere?

A month is considered long for the sweet newlywed period...

- Fan the fire, why don't you? - Hey!

Your nose is bleeding!

Goodness! My honey!

What should we do?

You must have worked too hard last night.

You should take it easy.

Are you okay, darling?

Lower your head!

Clamp your nose together with your thumb and your index!

One, two! One, two!

Seriously!

What's the matter?

It's... It's nothing.

Man, my stomach...

Did you get anything to eat before work?

Yes, kind of, I guess.

By the way, I saw your number on my call record this morning.

Did I call you by any chance?

It looked like I was on the phone for less than a minute though.

You don't remember?

Well, no. What did I say when I called?

You said you love me so much that it is killing you.

You wanted to get back together, and I said you were crazy. Got it?

What? No way!

I sort of put together a list. What do you want to do?

I can't just sit idly watching these ER budget cuts.

If I can't get the funds nationally, I have to try overseas.

I can't suffer through these annual cuts.

You are going to email all those charity organizations?

If I don't try something like that, we have to send back all patients.

The death rate is bound to rise then.

How troublesome.

I'm getting pressured by the higher ups...

to execute the dismissal.

Get me all the reference materials we have...

on deceased esophageal cancer patients.

Yes, sir.

- Are you going somewhere? - I will see it through myself.

Hey, hey. You have no reason to do that.

Isn't it better for me to see the director?

Chief Go.

You need to earn for the tuition of your kids.

At least until they finish school and return, you should stay low.

Just a moment.

I heard that...

there is a letter of dismissal for Dr. Oh. Is that true?

Does that mean she won't come to work anymore?

Who told you that?

Dr. Gook was on his way to talk to the director regarding it.

You are all done. Your blood glucose level is at 200.

He's hard of hearing, by the way.

Sir, where do you feel uncomfortable the most?

Have I eaten? Of course, I have.

That is something. Is there a guardian?

No, he came by himself. A challenge for you, I'm afraid.

Sir, you are aware that you have diabetes, right?

Why do you ask if I've eaten when I'm suffering an illness?

This is impossible.

What are you doing?

My goodness!

You're going to blow my eardrums out!

- Sir, can you hear me well? - Yes, I can.

Sir, where does it hurt?

That's the question I've been dying to answer.

Why did you keep asking me if I've eaten?

Where did you learn a clever trick like that?

Goodness...

- Sir! - Sir!

It's okay. Let go. Here. It hurts over here.

Here.

I'm going to touch it for a second.

No, no! It hurts. It hurts!

He has a fever.

He could be having an infection as a complication to diabetes.

Do you think it might be cellulitis?

Do you know what that is?

Yes, it's phlegmon.

A diabetes complication doesn't have to be phlegmon.

Wait!

Forget it. He's my patient. Go take care of yours.

Sir, how long have you had this?

I think it has been 2 or 3 months.

Why? Is it serious?

No, don't worry too much. We're going to do some tests first.

Don't drink too much now, okay?

Fine.

You are a kind and nice woman.

I want to introduce you to my youngest son. How about it?

- Once you fully recover, sure! - Okay. Great.

You should run Gram stain and the culture test first.

I'm speechless.

She's doing great, yet...

she's getting dismissed.

It's me.

I thought you were somebody else.

I thought your father might be coming.

Your aunts will be coming in a bit.

Did you have a good meal?

The food here is terrible. Your uncle's hospital is better.

But it looks like you licked the plate clean.

Come here. Sit here for a minute.

What's up?

How did it go with Ah Reum last night?

Did you see her home? Or did you stay together?

- Goodness. I did neither. - What?

- Then what? - The ER people went out to drink.

You two were supposed to be on a date! Why bring the others?

If you don't treat her properly, you're only going to get rejected.

Don't you know what a jewel she is? How can you treat her like that?

I have no particular feeling toward that girl yet.

You can't be serious.

By the way, I heard that she is getting fired.

- I'm talking about Jin Hee. - How did you know?

I heard you guys work together. How could I sleep?

I called the director as soon as I woke up.

And he said that there was a letter of dismissal or something.

What did I tell you?

She only got hired because of an electronic error.

I knew something was weird.

Jin Hee still saved your life.

Don't mind her so much now.

It was only a fluke. How can she even hold a scalpel?

She couldn't even peel an apple properly.

I'm so relieved she is getting fired.

She needs to be out of your sight as soon as possible.

If you keep this up, I will leave!

Are you really leaving?

What has gotten into him?

How long have you been so short of breath?

Since the afternoon.

- Does it get worse at night? - I can't breathe...

Sir! Sir!

Sir! Sir, wake up!

Sir!

- Get Dr. Shim here. Hurry! - Yes.

What happened?

He had difficulty breathing and suddenly went into a cardiac arrest.

His blood pressure is dropping!

What are you doing? Start massaging his heart!

Yes!

Prepare an ECMO right away.

And a dose of atropine and epinephrine too!

You want an ECMO? Shouldn't we intubate first?

I hear respiratory stridor. It must be a tumor of some kind.

Intubation isn't going do anything.

- Transfer him to the ER right away. - Yes.

Scalpel.

Dr. Shim, do you connect vein to artery or vein to vein?

It's vein-to-vein.

You already know so much.

Why don't you do it yourself?

Me?

Okay, nice work.

That's not bad at all.

Set FIO2 to 100 and the flow to 60.

Yes.

Oxygen saturation level rising! His heartbeat is back.

You can stop now.

I thought you only use an ECMO for a heart surgery.

I didn't know you can use it in a situation like this.

You can keep the patient alive this way and buy some time.

Let's remove the tumor. Prepare a rigid endoscopy.

Yes. Right away.

I'm so tired.

Here you go.

Thanks.

Wasn't doing cardiac massage tiring?

It's all part of the job.

That must have been scary, right?

He just went into a cardiac arrest.

I thought I was losing my mind.

I was so envious of Jin Hee earlier.

Dr. Shim keeps asking Jin Hee. Honestly, I was extremely envious.

What made you want to be a doctor?

- Why? Shouldn't I be one? - No, well...

A person like you must have had a lot of choices.

To tell you the truth, I was quite sick when I was young...

to the point where I couldn't leave the house.

It was a difficult time for the family.

So, I decided to be a doctor no matter what!

How different from someone...

What?

No, never mind.

Just what is your relationship with Jin Hee?

- Are you okay? - Yes.

What do you mean by that?

If there is nothing between you two...

How about dating me?

Date you?

No, wait...

Yes. Since everything seems fine, I'll call you later.

See you.

Is this the right place?

Yes. Seong Suk called us so many times.

They're coming! No!

She's trying so hard to stay as a patient in her son's hospital.

I know, right? Goodness.

How long does she have to stay?

Gosh!

Is she sleeping?

No. Seriously...

Just why? Why are they here?

Seong Suk? Seong Suk?

You guys are here.

Wait, be careful.

So, what happened? What did the director say?

We have to wait and see.

It's too bad if she gets dismissed.

That's her fate, I guess.

How can you say that when she's done nothing wrong?

She has potential. I'm afraid I got her into this mess.

How is this your fault again?

You have done everything you could.

It's because I have no power...

What did you say? Really?

- A doctor? - A doctor?

I'm in a bad condition because of it.

It's a miracle that I'm still alive.

- What? - Seriously...

So you're telling me...

Jessica and that woman are both in Chang Min's department?

Who is Jessica?

That's what I'm telling you.

Goodness Chang Min...

You have an exciting life!

Exciting? Are you crazy?

You call yourself an aunt...

At least you got your wish now!

- A doctor daughter-in-law. - Hey, you!

This is an opportunity for them to get back together!

Get back together?

Stop teasing her. You...

- Water. - Here.

Why did you bring her here?

I almost died, you know.

Watch what you say.

She used to be mistreated, but she has an equal status now.

She may even be able to get ahead!

Get ahead? That is nonsense. She's getting fired.

Don't worry.

- What? - Really? Why?

Not everyone can be a doctor.

You got a point. I mean, you could never be a doctor.

You!

What about Jessica? How is she?

She's quite lovely. As you'd expect from the daughter of the minister.

Who is a minister's daughter?

I wish she and Chang Min had a proper blind date that day.

Her name is Ah Reum.

What a lovely name, don't you think?

Ah Reum?

That Ah Reum?

Those two...

Was that you?

That wasn't me.

It wasn't... It wasn't me either.

Then who was it?

Is there someone else in this room?

The bathroom, the bathroom.

Hold it. Hold it.

- It's locked. - Someone must have locked it then.

That must mean there is someone there.

Who is there?

If you don't come out, we will call someone!

I'm coming through.

Aren't you Jin Hee?

Hello.

I'm so sorry!

Did you see that? That was Jin Hee, right?

She has really become a doctor.

How shocking.

How dare she come in here to mess with me!

You don't think she heard, do you?

Does...

Does that mean his blind date was...

Ah Reum?

She's a daughter of the minister?

Amazing. Amazing.

"Dear beautiful Ah Reum,"

"My heart has been stolen by you."

"I'd like to know your heart."

"If you accept my love, please tie the yellow ribbon..."

"Please tie the yellow ribbon."

"I'll be waiting. Sincerely, Yong Gyu"

Yong Gyu, you silly guy.

Yong Gyu, my goodness!

- Jin Hee! - Yes, Mom.

When are you coming home? When?

Why? I just got off work.

Get home right now. Hurry!

Why? What happened?

Get home before I suffocate! Right away, got it?

What? What...

What is going on?

- Please accept my introduction. - Well, I...

Sorry, let me put the baby down.

Sit tightly, little guy.

There.

- Please take my bow! - Wait! What are you doing?

I just can't understand a thing that you're saying,

I also don't believe it, so talk to my eldest daughter...

You mean the miraculous doctor who failed the entrance exam twice?

That's right.

As you see, I'm perfectly healthy. I don't need a doctor.

And I've told you everything, Mother.

Mother?

Who are you calling "Mother"? Am I your mother-in-law?

If it were up to me, I would call you a crazy fool...

and kick you out, but I'm trying to behave, you see?

Your words are pretty harsh.

Jin Ae is like you, I guess.

I guess she got it from you, Mother.

- Stop calling me that! - I apologize.

Why are you so flustered?

You will always hear me call you that from now on.

- Well... - My heart...

I knew it. I should have come by sooner and introduced myself.

In fact, I told Jin Ae so many times that we should...

Stop. Just stop it there.

My heart... I'm panicking. I need my pills.

Don't you have something to calm you down?

You should always have emergency medication with you.

You really...

Where is Jin Ae?

Where is she?

If I knew that, do you think I would have come here?

My goodness. This is crazy.

My heart...

- Let me go! - Seriously!

She's as strong as a horse! You don't need to be hospitalized.

I came back from the dead! Come on! Let me... Let me go!

Do you think acting this way will make your husband come for you?

Wait all your life and see. He won't come. He won't!

You guys really...

Hold her!

Let me go!

- Hey! - Get her in there!

Get her in. Get her in.

Start the car!

- Hey! - Stop it!

Put your leg in. You're going to hurt yourself.

Take care now, okay?

And don't forget your pills.

Is this how you will put me away when I'm old and alone?

And you won't tell anyone because I don't have a husband!

- Of course. Why even ask? - This woman!

You should be thanking us. Who would come to take care of you?

Only sisters like us would.

Bye! So long! Go now! Go!

Hurry! Go now!

Hey! Hey, you! You will pay for this later!

By the way, where is Chang Min? Shouldn't he be here?

He must be busy.

Right, we better call Seong Gil.

Yes, Seong Gil!

Your aunts got your mom discharged and are leaving the hospital now.

So, you have already heard about my situation?

Right.

What you are trying to say is you guys did nothing wrong...

and therefore, she shouldn't be dismissed.

Anything else?

I need your help, Uncle.

Really? This is rare!

I seem to remember you telling me that you never would need my help.

Even after the divorce, when you went to America,

and when you were taking the intern exam.

You said you didn't need my help.

So I thought you would do everything on your own...

without the help of your family.

That still stands.

This favor is the first and the last that I ask of you.

It's something you can fix with just a phone call, isn't it?

How shameless.

How can you be so sure that it will be the last time?

And what exactly will I get for helping you in this?

If there's anything I can do, I will do it.

She's the woman you hated and broke up with.

Do you have feelings for her again or something?

- It's not that. - Then?

I couldn't do anything for her because I was powerless.

But just this once, I want to take care of this for her.

Since at least, you know, I came from a good family, Uncle.

Sorry.

Aren't you getting off?

I will leave soon.

Nice work today, Yong Gyu!

Yes, thanks.

I'm heading out first.

"Nice work today, Yong Gyu..."

"Nice work today, Yong Gyu..."

She tied it, didn't she?

It's tied, isn't it?

Yes! It's tied!

I'll only hold your hand in bed, I swear!

Forget it! I'm heading out.

"Nice work today, Yong Gyu!"

Nice work! Nice work! Nice work!

Hello, doctor!

My name is Kim Kwang Soo.

I suddenly have a stomachache. Can you take a look for me?

- Get out. - What?

I said, get out of here!

Aren't doctors supposed to be compassionate?

Where would I go at this late hour with a baby?

I mean, get out of here and go find Jin Ae!

Don't raise your voice. You will scare the baby.

How can I not raise my voice in a situation like this, Mom?

What is this?

I saw Jin Ae there yesterday.

What?

Where? Where did you see Jin Ae?

Look for her there, as well as in the nearby bars.

Look everywhere! Go and find Jin Ae!

You must at least know what she does.

What does she do exactly?

She is not working at a bar or something, is she?

No way, Mother.

She... She is a musician.

What are you doing? Get moving!

Yes, ma'am.

Let me tell you the basic stuff though.

He's a boy, and he's six months old.

We named him Gook. So he's Kim Gook.

He's called Gook, because Jin Ae ate so much seaweed soup after birth.

But he's still the first grandchild in the family.

Please love him a lot.

Mom.

Hello?

Yes, hi.

How is Emma doing these days?

Right now?

Can you text me your address then?

Yes. Yes, I understand.

Mom, I have to go out again.

Where are you going at a time like this?

I'm sorry, Mom.

Anyway, when he gets back, let him sleep here.

I think he is really Jin Ae's husband.

I'm in a hurry though. It's an emergency!

Hey! My goodness, I'm going crazy.

I'm going crazy! I know I am!

Hello?

Hello?

Emma?

Dr. Oh.

- Where's Emma? - Emma is sick. Very sick.

Emma! Emma!

Emma! Can you hear me?

If you can hear me, squeeze my hand.

Emma!

- How long has she been like this? - Last night. She got sick.

Thank you for helping us last time.

But we can't go to the hospital anymore.

Sorry.

What are all these pills?

Did she take all these?

After the operation, I got them from the factory.

Ma'am. We can't go to the hospital.

I'm not taking you to the hospital. Give me a minute.

Is it going well?

I'm just trying it out.

Hopefully, at least one place will reply.

Let me help you.

(Dummy)

- Hello? - Dr. Gook!

I'm at Emma's house. Can you please come over here?

What?

She's the one I stole the ultrasound equipment...

and gave the CBD Stone surgery to.

It looks like she overdosed on analgesics.

We have to give her naloxone at least.

What are you talking about? You want me to see an outpatient?

You know her situation, don't you?

- Call an ambulance. - I can't.

She's unconscious, and her breathing is shallow.

It's an emergency, Dr. Gook!

Jin Hee, do you think I'm a pushover?

How dare you order me around?

I'll text you the address. I'm sorry!

Don't worry. He will come.

(67-4 Bongcheon-dong, Gwanak-gu I'm sorry, Chief. Please hurry.)

Jin Hee is asking you to see a patient right now?

- What kind of patient? - I don't know.

That girl is a mess.

Prepare me an emergency kit.

Include a naloxone shot, and all the basics, just in case.

Are you really going?

Can you send the rest of the emails? I'll owe you one.

Is anyone here?

Jin Hee!

Dr. Gook!

Dr. Gook.

Come in, hurry!

- Why did you bring all this? - How could I trust you?

What if it's not an overdose? We don't have time. Hurry up.

Emma, can you hear me?

Do you recognize me?

Thank you so much.

Thank you.

Thank you.

She should be fine now.

She shouldn't take just any pills just because she's in pain.

Thank you.

Let me carry that for you, Dr. Gook.

No, thanks.

You Dummy.

You!

Goodness...

- Dr. Gook. - What?

Thank you so much for coming.

I couldn't do anything for her because I was powerless.

But just this once, I want to take care of this for her.

Since at least, you know, I came from a good family, Uncle.

You have grown, Chang Min! You know how to use your family now.

- Can you hear me well? - Yes.

You are a kind and nice woman.

Okay, nice work.

(Tick)

Jin Hee!

Jin Hee is right here.

Someone like you has no right, talent, nor attitude to be a doctor.

- What did I say? - "Dummy".

Dummy.

That is just what you are, you troublesome girl.

I've saved the patient, sir.

The tracheotomy was done well.

A doctor is someone who does their best to save lives.

The number you have dialed is currently not available.

Please leave a message after...

What is she up to?

With Jin Hee?

- For what business? - Why are you so curious?

Jin Hee is not here yet?

Jin Hee, where were you last night?

- I was home. - Seriously?

A real man? It's a man like him!

Forget it. I'm not going.

He even talked to the director in private.

Dr. Gook did?

Dr. Gook, thank you very much!

What are you doing right now?

Who do you think made me drink this much?

You hugged the wrong guy. I was the one who took care of it.

You stupid bottle opener...
