You have to knock down the weaker ones...

...when you have the chance while you're stronger.

It's nature's law and wisdom to live by.

He clearly didn't know it.

His ignorance got him where he is now.

Hey, man.

You should've taken me down...

...when you found about bribery...

...during the elections.

Did you think I would behave...

...and do what I was told...

...if you put me on a leash?

No way.

We'll...

...have an election soon.

You should just get some rest until then.

I'll have a successful summit meeting...

...with North Korea and impress our dumb citizens.

Then...

...I'll let you rest in peace forever.

You get it?

[Episode 20]

Thank you for the valuable lesson, Premier Jang.

You tricked me?

This is the end for you.

Just manipulate the BIS after surgery.

[BIS: bispectral index, used to monitor depth of anesthesia]

And then?

Jang Seok Joo will...

...rant to the president, thinking everything went his way.

There aren't any agents here...

...from the Blue House.

These are all my people.

You're really something.

Get them out!

If you die now, I'll still have sixty days...

...to take on your role.

What are you waiting for?

Did you not hear me?

Get them out!

Premier.

You should stop now.

I'm sorry.

How could you?

Premier Jang.

Let's end things quietly.

You know what being a politician's like.

You can be best friends today, but enemies tomorrow.

You can be enemies today...

...but best friends tomorrow.

If you stop here...

...all of this will stay a secret between the two of us.

I won't...

...hold you responsible for what's happened.

Are you...

...trying to negotiate with me?

Exactly.

Let's negotiate.

I'll forgive you for everything.

I'll even let you...

...stay as premier.

I won't...

...knock you down.

I'll just put you on a leash...

...and you should say...

...yes to everything I tell you...

...to do.

That's all.

What are you doing?

He tried to kill you!

Dr. Park, this isn't something you should be involved in.

If you let him go...

...history will repeat itself!

I said this isn't something for you to judge, doctor.

Mr. President!

You reward people for doing bad...

...and punish people for doing good.

That's politics.

Don't you agree?

Premier Jang!

Fine.

I'll promise you the representatives of my party will...

...obey your orders in the future.

However...

...I have a suggestion to make.

Sure.

He will continue to serve you...

...Premier Jang.

Sure, why not?

I can keep a watchdog by my side.

But...

...you'll have to listen to me on this one.

I want those two...

...on my side too.

Sure, as you wish.

Mr. President!

That's not what you promised!

I'm sure nothing could go wrong.

Right, Premier Jang?

Of course.

Mr. President!

That's not right!

You promised!

You promised!

I'm sure we have a lot to talk about, right?

What's going on?

We can't use the operating room...

- ...until tomorrow morning. - How come?

It was the premier's order.

He's not even letting us pass through.

This can't be right.

It's nonsense.

It was our fault for trusting them.

How can he go back on his word so easily?

We were fooled.

He never really intended to help us.

He told me himself he'd let us go.

Let's hear...

...what you had to say before.

Is it related to Premier Jang?

You can tell me.

Premier Jang is trying to assassinate you.

To be exact...

...he wants to keep you in a coma after surgery.

I guess he wants to take my authority?

We'll be your witnesses.

You're going against your premier.

Plus...

...I have enough supporters...

...in my party.

Your testimony...

...won't be enough.

Then will you do what we ask you to?

What do you mean, "we"?

There's myself and an anesthesiologist.

Jang Seok Joo's people will help us too.

Even Premier Jang's people?

In return...

...promise us that we'll be safe.

Mr. President.

Alright.

He told me himself.

He said he would.

He said he'll let us go safely.

I'm sorry, Hoon.

I regret everything.

I should've made the right choice.

All this happened because...

...I took Cha Jin Soo's hand.

It started with my greed...

...to come see you.

I never knew...

...it would spread like wildfire...

...and turn into a nightmare.

It's not your fault.

If I could go back...

If I could turn back time...

...I would...

...just cherish you in my heart.

Then none of this would have ever happened.

It's not over yet.

But...

...what else can we do?

Ha! Don't move.

I know you can take care of...

...one or two of my agents since I've seen it happen.

...but be careful this time.

What if a gun goes off and...

...puts a hole in your lover's head?

If coincidences repeat...

...it must be fate.

I asked for you and your father to be killed twenty years ago.

Coincidentally, however, you're still alive.

I even closed the embassy doors on you in Hungary.

Coincidentally, however, you're still alive.

You did that?

Yes.

Then I started to think I should work with you.

This is just coincidence. It must be fate.

Fate? What nonsense.

The sky turned yellow...

...when I felt all my hard work was about to turn to ashes.

It's the same feeling I had...

...when I lost the election two years ago.

It's been a long time since I felt that way.

I'll never get used to it.

Did you think the president was...

...a different breed of human?

Did you think he would do...

...everything that you ask him to?

You should've asked me for mercy.

Do as I say...

...and help me become president...

...so I can reach the highest place I'm able.

When I'm the strongest of all...

...it would've been a better choice to ask for mercy...

...and tell me it's beneath me...

...to take your worthless lives.

You wouldn't let us go.

Probably not.

Shall we go now?

We have a lot of eyes on us.

Plus, we're at a hospital.

Hospitals save lives, right?

Keep your mouth shut...

...when following me.

Or else...

...your mother will go to heaven first.

What's going on?

You can go to heaven first.

Premier!

Premier!

He's still alive!

Bring a gurney...

...an intubation set and an emergency kit.

- Quickly! - Yes.

How is Premier Jang?

He's in serious condition.

Yes.

Yes, sir.

Why are you here so late?

Have you seen my *Hyung?

[Hyung: Older brother or older male]

The water boy? Why?

He's not answering his phone.

You should call me instead.

I'm always on standby...

...24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

He's not picking up his phone...

...and his mother just disappeared.

What should I do now?

Really?

What should I do?

It'll be alright. I'll help you look.

Call Dr. Oh. I'll start looking too.

Have you seen the water boy?

Dr. Park? I haven't seen him.

Didn't you go to intensive care with him...

...after the surgery was over?

They're not letting us...

...go anywhere near that area.

It's not just there, either.

There are 007 agents...

...around the operating rooms.

The operating rooms?

That's right.

They're sending any patients who need...

...urgent surgery to the new facility.

What's been going on...

...since yesterday?

What are you doing?

Hoon.

He's in critical condition.

I know.

We should get him in quickly.

Listen!

If he wakes up...

...we'll be in danger.

What do you mean?

- Let go of the oxygen bag. - What?

Hoon.

It's not just about us.

It's also about your mother.

He's still breathing.

He's alive.

He was supposed to just get heart surgery.

Now he has gunshot wounds.

There would be nothing weird about him dying now.

Just let go of the oxygen bag...

...and wait few minutes.

Then we can slowly bring him into the operating room.

We can say it was a table death.

- I can't do that. - Look at him closely!

This is Jan Seok Joo!

It's not a normal patient!

He tried you kill you and your father!

He did that to your mother!

- But... - Let's just close our eyes this time.

Just let go of the oxygen bag.

It will all be over.

What are you doing?

Let go.

- I can't! - Why not?

You opened my father's abdomen...

...and took out his kidneys to save me.

It left a scar on both of us...

...that will last the rest of our lives.

You said it was to save me!

Let go of that bag now to save me again.

It's...

...also to save yourself and your mother.

Let him go.

Please, Hoon...

If it wasn't for him...

...we wouldn't have been this miserable.

Remember?

We would have lived happily like normal people...

...if the doors at the embassy had opened.

It would be just what your father had wanted.

That's why I can't let go.

Do you know why my father died?

You're right.

He wanted me to be happy with you.

But he also wanted...

...for me to be free from Cha Jin Soo...

...and driving myself crazy.

He took a bullet for me...

...so I wouldn't have to hold a scalpel...

...for any reason other than saving people!

So could I really let go?

He's not a stranger! He's Jang Seok Joo!

He's just a patient in my eyes!

Hoon!

You know better than anyone else...

...why I wanted to become a doctor.

All I want is to treat sick people.

No more, no less.

It's what both my father and I both wanted to do.

Just to do what doctors are supposed to do!

Please, I'm begging you.

I didn't want to think about my past...

...when I met you again.

No matter what you say...

...I live by that.

I have to remember.

It was also my father's will.

If I don't save him now...

...all of the beliefs I've lived by...

...will mean nothing.

I'd be killing the dream my father had for me...

...the one he sacrificed his life for.

Feel it.

It's still beating.

It's exactly the same heart.

It's just like the twins'...

...Jae Chul's mom's...

...or that man's.

It's no different from theirs.

Let's go in, Jae Hee.

Please.

Call Dr. Oh from thoracic surgery and Nurse Min.

Quickly!

What are you doing?

Is he still alive?

What do you think?

No one will hold you responsible if he dies now.

What do you mean?

How is Premier Jang?

He's in serious condition.

Then how about we let...

...Dr. Park Hoon do his surgery?

He was originally supposed...

...to operate on the premier.

It also looked like...

...they were close buddies.

It's exactly as you've heard.

It's alright to have a table death.

[Table death: death during surgery]

It won't benefit you two...

...if the premier wakes up.

But if it goes the other way...

...you'll...

...be free.

Just like what you wanted.

If you say you tried your best...

...it'll be the end of everything.

My master once told me...

...cops should be good at catching thieves...

...and doctors should be good at healing people.

I'm sorry to tell you...

...I'll do just that.

You've really done a lot of terrible things.

No one wants you alive.

It's just the two of you.

Will you carry on?

Please don't disturb us.

If he wakes up...

...all of us will be in danger.

I'll take out Park Hoon.

Just let him do what he wants.

But, sir...

I want to watch...

...what happens...

...with his decision.

The surgery started?

Yes, Mr. President.

There're two wounds near pulmonary veins...

...and one near the septum.

There are three wounds in total.

Near the septum?

That's going to be complicated.

He's amazing.

No wonder he could successfully perform the SAVER procedure.

I have a feeling...

...the premier will wake up.

This will be the most challenging one.

I guess...

...everyone...

...is on Park Hoon's side now.

What do you mean?

You wanted a table death...

...but you seem to be relived...

...now that the surgery was a success.

I did?

Premier! Premier!

Call the doctors!

Move him to intensive care immediately!

Yes, sir!

You saved Jang Seok Joo...

...when he was at heaven's door.

Now that we have the chief of ambition back...

...we'll also have his followers.

They'll come after you soon.

I have a car ready for you at the back door.

There's some money...

...and things you'll need...

...for a short while.

Get as far away from Seoul as you can.

When you're about ready to leave the country...

...I'll give you a call.

What about my mother?

You can trust me.

I'll send her to a safe place.

I promise.

Yes.

I'm at the new operating room.

Who?

Chang Yi?

Can you tell her to wait for me in the office?

Jae Hee isn't from Japan?

He told me not to tell anyone...

...but his mother disappeared...

...and I can't get a hold of him.

I'm really concerned.

I never heard anything about Dr. Park's mother.

What should I do?

What if something bad happens to him?

[Dr. Kim Chi Gyu]

Hi, Dr. Kim.

What's going on...

...around the operating rooms?

Yes, sir.

Well, it's because of the premier's surgery.

I heard he's in the ICU.

Who did his surgery?

I'm not sure about that.

Have you seen Dr. Park?

I saw him going out the back door.

The back door?

Go ahead, Jae Hee.

Why?

Just go.

Hoon...

Cha Jin Soo!

Run!

No!

Huh?

Hello?

Police?

Just hold on, Jae Hee!

Don't do it!

Don't do it, Song Jae Hee!

Just run, Hoon.

Don't do it, Song Jae Hee!

Love is great.

Wow.

This looks very familiar.

Was it two years ago?

That's right.

It was two years ago.

Jae Hee...

Hoon...

Right.

But there's a small difference.

I don't know who it was...

...but there's no one to help you this time.

Do you want to live?

Fine.

I'll make a deal with you.

If you let go of that hand...

...I'll let you live.

You're crazy.

You could say that.

I'm crazy.

I can't wait to rip both of you to pieces...

...but I'll let one of you go.

You can kill me instead.

No, no.

You have to torture yourself the rest of your life...

...for killing your woman.

That will hurt you more.

Don't you think?

Hoon.

Just let go of my hand. Let go.

I'll count to three.

One.

Hoon!

Jae Hee...

Remember what I told you?

Letting go of your hand back then...

...was the biggest mistake I ever made.

Hoon...

I...

I told you I'll go everywhere with you.

No, Hoon... No!

Two!

Do you see the river?

Don't worry about...

...where it'll take you.

Hoon...

Hoon!

I'm going with you.

Three!

Hyung!

[Hyung: Older brother or older male]

Glory...

...to People's Republic...

...of Korea.

Hyung!

Hyung!

Hyung...

Hyung, Hyung!

Hyung...

Hyung...

Hyung...

Hyung...

[1 year later]

Next up is former Premier Jang's arrest.

[Former Premier Jang arrested for illegal bribery]

[Former Premier Jang arrested for illegal bribery]

The former premier was arrested earlier today...

...for illegal bribery during the election.

This arrest reflects that the Blue House...

...is taking a zero tolerance policy against illegal bribery.

There's an old proverb that says...

...if the water is too clean, there'll be no fish.

We can tell the fish to leave...

...if they don't like clean water.

You were more into negotiating than scolding.

You've changed a lot during the last year.

A man once told me...

...that cops should be good at catching thieves...

...and doctors should be good at healing people.

I've thought a lot about that.

I think...

...a politician...

...should act clean.

You can say hi to me.

Hey.

I have an interview here...

...for the manager position today.

How do I look?

Beautiful as always.

Thanks.

It cost me a fortune.

No.

Well, I meant to say that your perseverance is beautiful.

You started out here as a part-timer.

How you see people has changed a lot.

Well...

...your body is also beautiful.

Stop.

Not today.

Pull lightly.

I said lightly!

I'm sorry, Dr. Oh.

He suffered cardiac arrest and cardiac failure.

If you pull too hard we'll get a septal rupture too!

[Septal rupture: lethal complication of myocardial infarction]

I'm sorry.

If you don't focus...

...I'll teach you a lesson, too.

Yes, ma'am.

Dr. Oh, did you know?

About what?

The patient from today.

Of course I know.

He had the same condition...

...as the first patient Dr. Park treated.

We're done with the septal rupture repair.

We just have to do the CABG.

It's too much for you, Dr. Oh.

You were really mean back then.

I know.

It's almost time.

Oh!

I heard Dr. Keum is becoming an assistant professor next month.

He'll be a father soon, too.

Really?

I'm at three months.

Congratulations!

Congratulations on becoming a father, Dr. Keum!

I was going to tell you.

You did already?

Sorry.

Congrats, anyhow!

Thank you.

Your time will come soon too.

So what are the symptoms of angina?

Right... It's difficulty breathing...

Looking at you causes difficulty breathing.

Atrial fibrillation, chest pain, and clotting that might cause stroke.

- Alright? - Hey.

Enough. Just get on.

Study your stuff! I'll ask you again.

Got that? I'm Kim Chi Gyu!

Don't cry! You have no reason to!

Wow, you're so mean!

Those kids think they're taking a tour around the hospital.

It's not right!

That's exactly how you were a year ago.

That's an insult! I wasn't like that.

Oh!

Wow! You seem nervous, Manager Moon.

I haven't been this nervous...

...since the election in elementary school.

Don't be too nervous.

All of our former directors...

...came from thoracic surgery.

The professor from orthopedics is a tough competitor.

What do you want to do...

...when you become the director here?

What a dumb question!

I'll give my all for Myung Woo!

It's straight forward!

Jeez.

But...

...I feel like something is missing.

What is?

Absence makes the heart...

...grow fonder.

There's someone I really wish could be with us now.

That's all.

Excuse me.

We're almost there, bear with me.

I get really gassy when I'm nervous.

Wow, you're really something.

Ah, we're almost there!

Why isn't the door opening?

And now for Myung Woo's sixteenth director.

Ladies and gentlemen...

...I'm Moon Hyung Wook, the new director.

I would like to thank all of the doctors who've supported me...

...throughout the years.

I would also like to thank...

...former directors Oh Joon Gyu...

...and Han Seung Bae.

My heart also goes out to...

...Manager Park Do Ho from cardiology...

...Manager Im Sung Won from internal medicine...

...Manager Sunwoo Jae Min from neurology...

...Manager Yang Suk Chun...

...from medical imaging...

...Manager Yang Chung Man from physiotherapy...

...Manager Kim Jae Ban from general medicine...

...Manager Park Sang Tae from pathology...

...and Manager Ham Bong Hee from ophthalmology...

Do you think we made the right choice electing him as the new director?

I'm not so sure.

Thank you, everyone!

What are you doing here?

I'm overwhelmed with joy.

Manager...

I'm sorry, director.

Park Hoon is probably...

...watching me from up there, right?

He'd be the happiest of all to find out...

...that...

...I finally became director.

[Park Hoon]

We still have his locker.

I'll...

...live up to my father's will...

...and do my best to make this hospital...

...a great place for patients.

Doctor!

Chang Yi!

Do you think he's at peace?

He went with the woman he loved.

Why did you always call Dr. Park your *Hyung?

[Hyung: Older brother or older male]

I knew he had Jae Hee...

...but I thought I would start to like him...

...if I didn't think of him that way.

I knew I shouldn't have come.

Don't be so sad!

I'm sure we'll meet again someday.

Are you going to another hospital?

I'm going to the public health center where my husband works.

You mean Dr. Yang?

You knew?

Of course.

I catch on pretty quickly.

Alright then. Good luck.

I'll visit you sometime.

I heard Jae Joon was here.

Yeah, he's inside.

Hold on.

What if my father gets too agitated again?

I've been standing here the whole time.

I think they're just talking.

I'm sure...

...they have lots to catch up on.

Let's give them some time. Alright?

You're here to apologize to me?

Yes.

You're not here to get an apology from me?

I think I already accepted your apology.

I never did.

I'm helping out a friend at a law firm...

...in the States.

A law firm?

I'm not qualified to be a doctor anymore.

I learned something interesting there.

It's about Korean hospitals...

...and medical law suits over the last year.

I don't want to hear it.

It's about one-tenth here what it is at other hospitals.

There were a lot of comments...

...about how much people appreciated apologies made by the staff.

That's because...

...I'm not the director here anymore.

I know you still make important decisions...

...even when you're resting.

If my parents...

...only knew...

Shut your mouth.

I don't want to hear any more from you.

You can leave.

Why did you want to apologize to me?

I wanted to apologize to Soo Hyun's father.

I was foolish...

...to hurt her heart.

I don't know if I'll have the chance...

...but I would like...

...to be forgiven someday.

I'll...

...forgive Han Jae Joon...

...who was Soo Hyun's man.

Father...

Huh?

Why are you here?

I was about to leave.

Right... I was about to...

Ouch! I was on my way!

I'm sorry.

Jae Joon...

Or can I call you Sung Hoon?

I thought you lied to me.

I know now...

...what you went through.

Will you forgive me?

I'm the one who should be asking for forgiveness.

There's someone else...

...we should apologize to.

Dr. Park.

Are you free tomorrow?

Tomorrow?

We know a lot about Dr. Park...

...and Dr. Han.

Dr. Park and Dr. Han?

What about Dr. Park and Dr. Han?

I heard this from a friend. His name is Mr. Jang.

I didn't believe...

...what I heard about them.

The happy, easy going Dr. Park...

...buried things like that...

...in his heart.

The same goes to Dr. Han...

I mean...

...Jae Hee.

Are you alright?

I...

I feel really badly about those two.

I didn't know their story.

I'm ashamed for telling him that I liked him.

I must've looked like a fool.

I had no idea about their tragedy.

I just asked him to accept my feelings.

I was also foolish.

I...

...simply thought he was young and skilled...

...but had no idea...

...how he learned those skills.

Come on.

There's someone I'd like you to meet.

Meet someone?

It's him.

That's right.

It's him.

[Public Health Center]

Ouch!

Why are you touching my bottom?

It looked so firm!

What's wrong?

I gave your husband's meds yesterday...

...for his acid reflux.

You have visitors.

What visitors?

Hey there!

Lady!

Who are they?

Hi, quack!

Do something! You're scaring me.

I saw you fall.

I thought you were dead.

You should've let me know...

...that you were alive!

That's the least you could have done!

Ouch!

Ouch!

Alright, enough!

Aren't you hungry after your workout?

Be quiet.

Let's eat together.

[Order received]

What happened after you fell into the water?

I couldn't figure out what happened then.

I had some help.

Did you sleep well?

You look even more beautiful.

Take care.

This is what you asked for.

Thank you.

Your son also left you a gift.

Open it.

It suits you much better...

...than being a legal assistant.

What about Jae Hee?

She...

...fled to China as a refugee.

So she's in China now?

She had dual identities...

...so she had a hard time getting asylum.

Thankfully, she had a friend to help out.

It all worked out four months ago.

Then...

...she fled back to South Korea as a refugee.

The reason I came back to Korea yesterday is that...

...today is the day Jae Hee...

...should come back to Korea.

Jae Joon.

You told me you didn't believe in fate, right?

Yeah.

Do you still think so?

Not anymore.

I believe in fate now.

[Thank you for your love for "Dr. Stranger"]
