Emergency Couple

Father.

Father, Father!

Father, please wake up.

Father!

Is there a suture kit?

Hold on a second.

- Yeah, I have it.\N- I have to suture him quickly.

Suture?

Let's tie the blood vessel and stop the hemorrhage.

Hold on a second.

Here.

Subtitles brought to you by The Romance In The ER Team @ Viki

I think it's because the space between the ribs is too small.\N I'll position him for you.

It's done.

Hurry and recheck the blood pressure.

I think it must have worked. The blood pressure is going up.

Yes.

Hold on a second.

Chief! It's Dr. Oh Chang Min. Please take the call.

Yeah, what's the matter?

What?

Okay, I got it.

Hemothorax(free blood in chest cavity) patient will be here soon. \N Hurry and prepare for him.

- What happened?\N- There was blood in his pleural cavity. \N He is in a state of shock right now.

Move him quickly.

We're moving him: One, two, three.

I can hear crackles on both sides of his lungs, \Nand his JVP(jugular venous pressure) is elevated.

We need to see if it's viral cardiomyopathy(weak heart muscle)\N or an MI(myocardial infarction), right?

- That's right.\N- I'll draw the blood.

Get a cardioangiogram (image heart vessels with dye) \Nand an EKG. Go get the ultrasound machine as well.

Okay.

Wall motion has decreased overall, and the ejection fraction is only 10%.

I heard that he had 3-vessel heart disease.

How's the blood test results?

Troponin T is normal, CK(creatine kinase) is 254, \NBNP(brain natriuretic peptide) is 670.

Also, on x-ray, it shows that the haziness on\N both sides of the lung is getting worse.

The blood pressure is dropping.

- Did you page the specialist?\N- Yes.

It could be viral cardiomyopathy.\N Give him anti-virals and dobutamine(heart stimulant). Hurry!

Okay, I understand.

- I think we'll need to put a BiPAP ventilator on him.\N- He has lost consciousness. Do you think it'll be okay?

I can hear pulmonary edema(fluid in lungs) by auscultation. \NWe'll need to give it a try.

We can't use diuretics because his blood pressure is low.\N If BiPAP(positive airway pressure) doesn't work, then...

we need to put in a tracheal tube.

I'll get the BiPAP ready.

- What about the hemothorax, then?\N- We'll need to see how he does. First, we need to get his vital signs stabilized.

You stay here.

Where is Dr. Oh?

If you go around to the right, \Nhe's in the treatment room on the left.

- How is his condition?\N-They're doing their best.

You came.

Where is your father right now?

What happened?

Why is he like this?

Due to complications from diabetes, \Nhe has chronic renal failure and constricted heart vessels.

His condition was this bad?

- Since when was he like this?\N- I think it has been like this for a long time.

In this condition, he must have collapsed a\N few times in the past due to chest pain.

It just can't be.

How?

How could a person who is a doctor...

So...\NSo...

will he die?

- Will he die?!\N- Why would he die? It's not not that.

Is it really not true?

That's right, so come out.

Don't worry too much.

You didn't know about his condition?

That your father was like this.

Here.

Are you okay?

Go home. I'll stay here.

You're a doctor.

I'm just an ignorant wife to your father,\N but you're this glorious doctor.

Why didn't you know about his condition?

All right already.

Because you treated him quickly, it is a relief that he's not worse.

I found out when Jin Hee called.

What?

Oh Jin Hee?

Yes.

If Jin Hee didn't go visit him, he\N would have been in a much worse condition.

Until the end, you're just...

So...

Is this why you didn't attend the dinner with the Minister? Because of Oh Jin Hee?

You're being absurd to a person whose father just collapsed.

- It's because I think there are other reasons.\N- Yes, you are right!

Because I owe uncle a favor, I had to go unwillingly!

- But thankfully Father collapsed!

What did you say? You bastard!

Don't do this!

Get going quickly.

You bastard...

Both of you should go home.\N If something comes up, I'll call you.

Okay, you should head back in.

Sit.

How's your mother?

She's going home. You should, too.

No, it's okay.

I'm not okay with it.

So go home.

Okay.

Thanks.

It's terrible that this happened on your birthday.

Oh well.

What? Really?

I'm saying it's real.

Anyway, your sister's ex-mother-in-law...

She's no joke.

It was really quite a match!

That lady! Really!

Hey, hey, hey, where are you going...?

Is that true?

What?

I heard you met that lady and got into a fight at Unnie's hospital.

You didn't need to tell her that!

What was brother-in-law doing? Was he just a bystander?

Brother-in-law?

It was thanks to him dragging his mother away, \Nthat the fight ended.

If she appears one more time and hassles Unnie,

I'm not going to sit still.

- Did Unnie leave?\N- Of course, she left early in the morning.

You should be on your way as well!

I'll be leaving, then.

I'll be back.

Why?

Ah, Jeez.

There can't be anything worse than this ill-fated relationship.

She studied so hard to get in, and yet...

Woosu University Hospital

Oh Chang Min's father?

Yeah.

Dr. Oh Tae Seok? He's someone who published\N his research on lung cancer in the Nature Journal.

I didn't know it was him, either.

I just thought he was from a doctor family.

I wonder why he didn't take care of his health, though.

It was a chronic illness, and I think his condition suddenly got worse recently.

Okay, let's go check on him later.

Really? Then those two are a divorced couple?

Yeah. It's totally 'hot' news, right?

It has spread throughout the whole hospital already.

Oh, no... I had no idea...

Did I make any mistakes?

Yeah, a lot! So what?

How could we have known that they used to be a married couple?

You're talking about...

Chang Min and Dr. Oh Jin Hee, right?

Chang Min's father came to the Emergency Room yesterday.

To the Emergency Room at our hospital?

I think we need to insert a chest tube.

- Insertion of a tube into the thoracic cavity?\N- Yeah. Please get it ready, quickly.

Okay.

Subtitles brought to you by The Romance In The ER Team @ Viki

It's done. Keep your eyes on him.

Thank you.

I guess Oh Chang Min's family really is something.

What do you mean?

Hearing that Dr. Oh Tae Seok is in the Emergency Room,

all the specialists are wanting to take care of him.

There's a lot of talk going around complaining \Nwhy you treated him instead of paging the specialists.

Chief Guk.

Why didn't you page a specialist?

- I did.\N- What?

I called the Cardiology Center and requested\N several times for them to come quickly.

But they said they were busy and avoided me. \NWhy are they being like this now?

Did you tell them who the patient was?

Why would who the patient is matter?

If I told them that it was a CRF (chronic renal failure) patient with 3 vessel heart disease, they should have come immediately!

Aigoo, it's not like there are a lot of specialists\N available in the middle of the night!

If you had told them that he was Dr. Yoon Seon Gil's brother-in-law, Dr. Oh Tae Seok, they would have come running!

Department Head, this is the Emergency Room.

Should we be discriminating among patients when we treat them?

Following protocol is good,

and since it's the emergency room,\N it's correct to treat the more emergent cases first. However,

isn't it enough that we took care of the urgent patient well?

I'm just worried that you will be targeted and get hurt in the process.

The Emergency Department isn't the only department in this hospital.

How's your father?

He even got a chest tube?

He's not in critical condition anymore, though.

Ah Reum,

I'm sorry for yesterday.

No, it's okay.

When your father is like this...

You took care of Dr. Oh Tae Seok on your own?

A family member of Dr. Yoon Seon Gil?

Are you trying to make some favorable connections?

I don't have talent in that area like you, Dr. Ahn.

- Excuse me.\N- Hold on.

I saw that you thoroughly criticized my recent publication.

Did you study a lot?

Are you trying to go against me,\N with 8 years of residency under your belt?

That's nonsense.

I can't be your competitor.

Then, is Dr. Oh Jin Hee

sucking up to the Chief to make herself look good?

She got started late. She's older than others, and...

she's also a divorcee.

Then, the time she brought food for the Chief was also to...

That's what I'm saying.

Do people with poor resumes have to suck up to their supervisors?

Jeez.

Oh, hello.

I heard you divorced Oh Chang Min.

Yes.

Even if you're a divorcee,

it's not right to flirt with a supervisor.

What do you mean?

Chief Guk shouldn't be like that to an intern, either.

Even if you're on a short-term contract and you're his subordinate...

Professor, your words are inappropriate.

Inappropriate?

I wonder why he always has your back\N and doesn't hesitate to fight for you.

Guk Cheon Su just won't do...

Professor Ahn!

He's seeing you as an easy game because you're a divorcee.

- Don't you get it?\N- That bastard!

Even if you're a divorcee,

it's not right to flirt with a supervisor.

What do you mean?

Guk Cheon Su just won't do...

Professor Ahn!

He's seeing you as an easy game because you're a divorcee.

- Don't you get it?\N- That bastard!

Did you just hit me?

Oh, it's bleeding! You...!!

Let go of me!

Don't take out your anger against me on \Nsomeone else, and just get going quietly.

That bastard, I'm going to...

A resident dares to hit an attending?

Professor.

Guk Cheon Su,

you made a big mistake.

Why did you do that? Don't you think about the consequences?

Sunbae!

Hello, Mother.

Oh, hello.

Did you get home safely with your parents yesterday?

Yes.

I'm really sorry.

I couldn't imagine that something like this could happen.

There's no need for apologies. \NYour husband collapsed, and nothing comes before that.

My parents are worried about him as well.

Thanks for understanding.

Please let the Minister know how I feel.

Okay. Don't worry about it, and please go inside.

Okay.

Father! Father, are you awake? Are you okay?

Father!

Dear!

- Dear.\N- How could a doctor

let himself get to this?

He got a lot better, though.

Is this him looking all better?

We'll need to transfer him to a room and observe his progress.

If you're not going to take care of your wife,

you should at least take care of your own health.

Mom. Giving him stress isn't good for his heart.

It's okay.

Your mom's heart probably dropped to the floor because of me.

That's right! Look at what's going on right now!?

How could a doctor get sick?

How could you have not known your own health?!

Mom, you really can't give him stress!

- If you're going to be like this, quickly leave!\N- Let go of me!

Get up right now!

You have to get up and do your research on the ecosystem,\N or whatever it is that you do!

You're supposed to make a cut here as well, right?

Yeah.

Can I give it a try?

Go ahead.

How is it? Do you think it went well?

You did well.

Please finish up.

Okay.

Chief.

What?

I thought you were a bit too harsh on Professor Ahn...

Too harsh?

Using your divorce as an excuse, he babbled nonsense!

Are you saying I should have let him be?

I'm sorry for causing your trouble.

It's because Professor Ahn has a grudge against me, \Nso don't think too much of it.

You're the one who has gone through trouble because of me.

But I guess being a divorcee makes me an easy target.

What?

I mean, I was wondering if others really thought that way.

No.

Finding out that you're a divorcee...

makes it more difficult and uncomfortable for me.

I guess a divorcee is an easy target

and makes others uncomfortable.

Whether or not I'm a divorcee,

I guess there's no way for that to not matter.

Is anywhere else causing you discomfort?

It turned out okay. Don't unwrap it.

- Thank you.\N- Thank you.

Finding out that you're a divorcee...\N makes it more difficult and uncomfortable for me.

Whether or not I'm a divorcee,

I guess there's no way for that to not matter.

Sunbae, are you going to keep being out of touch\N with your mother and father?

I thought that you needed to get over that\N in order to love someone and get married.

Big Rock

I think there's something strange going on between those two.

I mean... A rumor wouldn't start over nothing.

If they're not in a relationship, would he have \Nacted that way towards Professor Ahn?

Still, I don't think they're dating or anything.

Chief always has his guard up.

Well, there's a rumor that they slept in the on-call room together.

Really?

That's right. After splitting with the awesome Dr. Oh Chang Min,

how could she think of dating the devil-like Chief?

Why not? I think Dr. Guk is much better than Dr. Oh Chang Min.

See me for a moment.

Why did you want to see me?

Did I make a mistake?

No, it's not like that.

Earlier, I thought I...

hurt you.

No, it's okay.

I'm sorry.

It's my fault...

Come in.

Did something go wrong with the blood test I ordered earlier?

No.

Then...?

I don't care at all.

Excuse me?

I'm saying I don't care whom you divorced, \Nor whether you're a divorcee.

Chief...

So, you shouldn't pay attention to those things, either.

Whatever others say, you're just...

Oh Jin Hee.

Please hold on a bit.

I'll do it. Don't go in.

Please, let's go in.

Oh. Yes.

You came.

Is it that serious? He looks so normal.

Even a small stress can adversely affect his heart, so

he has to rest peacefully.

You heard, right?

You heard, right?

Okay, I got it. What do you think I'll do?

Don't worry too much.

Last time, you did well with your treatment, and

look how healthy you're are now.

Yes.

- Unnie.\N- Oh, you came.

- You came?\N- Thanks for your hard work.

Aigoo. You came to our hospital.

How is he?

We can't be too assured that he'll be okay, but...

right now, he needs to get some rest.

Then, I'll...

We'll do out best.

Please do.

You're alive.

Brother-in-law, just what is this?

I was so concerned after I got the call from Unnie.

I have all these trustworthy people around me, so

what's there to be concerned about?

This kid kept me alive

and brought me here.

You must be thrilled.

Don't worry too much. His vitals and EKG are fine right now.

Okay. You did a huge thing,

but I guess the dinner with the Minister was a wreck.

No need to say.

There is a lot of work to be done today.

I know.

You know...

I heard...about the two of you.

Yes.

Ah Reum.

Don't be too concerned about me.

Everything is in the past, and I told you\N the divorce doesn't matter anymore.

Why did you divorce?

Well, we couldn't agree on lot of things

I guess you guys didn't have any children?

That's right.

Why didn't you have any? If you did,

things might have been different.

I didn't think I had any latitude for that.

But,

I think Chang Min likes you more than you know.

Truthfully speaking,

my parents and Chang Min's parents \Nwere supposed to have dinner, but

Chang Min didn't show up.

- That was...\N- Of course it must have been

because of his father's urgent condition.

But then again...

I don't think it was just because of that issue.

I knew that he didn't want to come.

If you really like him,

think of him as a long term project.

Thank you, even if it was just words.

Regardless of anything, don't come to work anymore. Got it?

You said you told the Chief already.

I might not have.

What do you mean by that?

Then, are you saying you won't have the child?

Aiyoo. I'm about to go nuts!

What is the matter?

No, it's nothing.

Oh, yeah. Where did Yong Gyoo go?

He must be working.

I didn't see him all day.

Did you see him?

This is strange.

Wait a minute. This guy...

Maybe he ran away?

What?

Where did Im Yong Gyoo go?

You guys really don't know?

- Yes.\N- I don't know.

Get in touch with him and try finding him.

Oh... really!

Subtitles brought to you by The Romance In The ER Team @ Viki

Professor Oh's condition is not good right now.

So, nurse him well.

and don't give him any stress.

Am I that evil?

Of course, and the brother-in-law is Socrates.

You, really...

You can get sick from nursing someone, so

you take care of yourself, okay?

Okay. I got it. You guys go home.

Only after I collapsed,

I get to see you two side by side.

Hurry and get well.

I would love to see you treating patients again.

That's why I gave you the stethoscope as a present.

I'm okay. And since you became a doctor,

that's good enough for me.

Enough that I won't regret, even if I die.

Why are saying things like that?

You'll be up soon.

You know patient's will is the most important.

Yeah.

Please go.

Yeah. Go home.

Father-in-law,

be strong.

Okay.

Can the two of you

start over?

I want to, but

Jin Hee is afraid.

Why?

A better person might appear for Jin Hee, but

I may be blocking that.

If Jin Hee finds someone she really loves,

I'm supposed to let her go. Isn't that so?

Yeah, I know.

For her, you should.

Then again,

I don't believe in that stuff.

Sending off the one you love...

that kind of stuff.

Instead of doing that, live by giving her all the love you've got.

Then why didn't you live that way?

What did you say, you punk?

Do you think he ran away?

I was auscultating the patient,

but I couldn't hear anything. My hands were trembling, too.

And my palms were sweating.

The call cannot be connected. After the beep...

That Indie Band...

they're performing near Hongik University tonight.\N Do you want to go together?

I'm sorry, Yong Gyoo.

I have an important dinner date with my parents tonight.

I understand.

They're performing tomorrow, too...

Yong Gyoo!

Ai, Jeez.

Yong Gyoo!

Ah Reum!

What happened?

How did you know I was here?

You said they were performing here until today and \Nasked me to go with you.

You remembered that and you

came all the way here looking for me?

I was so worried.

What am I supposed to do when you disappeared so suddenly?

Thank you, Ah Reum.

But... I'm not confident anymore.

I don't know if I can be a doctor anymore.

It's because you temporarily lost some \Nself confidence, that's all.

I was confident at first, but

when I actually tried,

I caused trouble by prescribing the \Nwrong drug the last time for a patient.

I don't think I have the right to become a doctor.

Even so, because you came looking for me,

I am really thankful, and

I am also sorry.

No, it's okay.

I told you to go home now. If you collapse as well...

Okay. I got it. I understand, so

you go over there to get some shut eye.

Get dressed to go home. I'll be back after delivering this.

Okay, I understand.

Honey!

Honey.

Honey.

Honey.

Over here.

Over here!

Excuse me.

Yes. what's the matter?

Hurry. Get the attending doctor. Hurry.

Okay.

What is the matter?

Jin Hee. He suddenly couldn't breathe...

Hurry up and get the attending doctor. Hurry!

Why is he like this all of a sudden?

Jin Hee. Jin Hee!

Save him. You're a doctor.

You even saved me. Please!

Please save him, Jin Hee.

What is the matter?

Patient Oh Tae Seuk who was transferred from\N the ER is having difficulty breathing.

What is the matter?

Professor Oh Tae Seuk...

He is not in our care anymore.

The moment we sent him up there from the ER, it left our hands.\N Don't do anything that will cause trouble.

Subtitles brought to you by The Romance In The ER Team @ Viki

Don't be like this.

I don't want to make things difficult for you.

Please, go home.

I don't want to.

As you know, we are not related anymore.

I'm sorry.

I know but...

I know that, but...

I can't go.

I just can't go.

♫ Here I am ♫

♫ Even today I am in that place. ♫

♫ I am, my heart, ♫

He'll be okay.\N♫ My feelings always are the same.♫

Nothing will go wrong.

♫ I am... ♫

So, don't worry.\N ♫ You know I am here. ♫

I'm so scared...\N ♫ You know I am here. ♫

because he might die.

I'm really scared.

What happened?

He is having secondary surgery.

Tonight will be his most difficult moment.

Oh... Oh.

Mom! Mom!

Mother-in-law. Mother-in-law.

Mother-in-law.

We finished the third stage of the surgery and did our best.

You'll have to prepare yourselves\N and call the rest of your family.

You've worked hard.

How is your mother-in-law?

She's okay,

but she has to remain calm.

Don't lose hope yet.

If he continues to be fine tonight, everything will be alright.

Don't worry. He'll wake up soon.

Go and rest already.

I'll be here.

On that day...

do you know why I ran to your father's lab after getting your call?

After breaking up with you,

when I thought life had no meaning to it,

the person who came to find me was Father-in-law.

What he said back then was,

"What just happened in your life is that you fell once."

"You scratched your knee a bit."

"Don't make it seem like a big thing."

"When you look at it, life is long."

"It's a world where a 70 year old grandpa\N who doesn't know anything,"

"can learn Korean in his old age \Nto pass the high school exit exam."

It's fortunate.

That at least Father did that for you.

I came all the way here with the help from that support.

If my father were alive,

he would have told me that too, right?

Of course.

That's why...

I just...

want you to let me stay here.

Are you alright?

What happened to him?

He held up pretty well through the surgery \Nand is in the recovery room.

Then,

will he be okay now?

Yes.

No.

He will have difficult time making it through tonight.

Who the heck are you?

I'm telling you to prepare for the worst.

That can't be.

He'll end up living longer than me.

He was breathing clean air and in a good place, \Naway from me who was poison for him.

Please, sleep now.

I...

will stay beside your father.

You stay outside.

You're going to collapse again.

I just want to be alone with your father.

Honey.

Hurry and get up.

Let's go eat King crabs again.

Honey. You're okay, right?

Father. Father.

His cardiac functions have declined too much.

His cardiac muscles are barely moving.

What?

What is he saying?

We gave him Dobutamine and Levophed\N(vaso-constrictors to increase blood pressure), but...

the blood pressure can't be maintained.

What about a heart transplant?

He'll be fine if he gets a transplant.

With this condition,

heart transplant will be useless.

No. No. Father!

This isn't the time, Father! Father!

What is it? What just happened?

Save him! Jin Hee. Jin Hee!

Jin Hee, do something. Hurry and do something!

Do something...!

Oh Chang Min.

Father...

I'm sorry.

Time of death...

What? Time of what?

There are so many doctor here, but

why are you not doing anything?!

Why are you not doing...! Why aren't you doing anything!

Jin Hee. Jin Hee.

You can do it right? Right?

Even if it ends, I guess it never is.

So you're being chased away?

The Chief..

I let the sunbae know already.
