[Episode 80]

You boasted that you could cure me when you knew you couldn't.

It's time for you to lose your hand!

Milady, the doctor worked day and night caring for Lord Kim without rest.

Please forgive Doctor Heo!

Milady, please forgive him.

Stop making noise here and leave.

Chief Nurse.

Yes, Milady.

I was mistakenly swayed by people's words

and foolishly entrusted my brother to him.

As a result, I ended up misleading the king as well.

I'll have to pay my dues to His Majesty in time.

Doctor Heo needs to punished and expelled to set an example.

Tell the Chief Royal Physician to take appropriate measures.

Yes, Milady.

I have come, Milady.

Come inside.

I'm sure you heard how that quack deceived His Majesty and Her Ladyship.

Seems you've heard her orders. See to it that he is punished severely.

Facial paralysis is not a serious condition. I am sure Doctor Heo could cure it.

But when I heard about his treatment of gastric cancer, I was mortified.

I cannot forgive him for his actions myself.

I shall see to it that he gets what he deserves.

Well? Drag him out!

What are you waiting for?

Get up.

Please forgive him! Please!

Please forgive him!

Silence!

The two wenches were in on it, too. Punish them along with Heo!

Take them as well.

Milady! Please forgive him!

- Please forgive him! - Please!

Please forgive him!

Milady, please!

Milady, please forgive him!

Do you know what you did wrong?

Yes, I do.

I'm sure you can't deny the charges.

Bring the chopper.

We have a way to punish a fool like you.

Lift up the blade.

- Sir! - Yes, sir!

Heo Jun...

You used your right hand to perform your so-called treatment.

Put that hand forward.

Now!

Please, sirs!

Please forgive him!

Please forgive him!

Get out of the way!

Sir, please forgive Doctor Heo! Please forgive him.

Wench, move out of the way!

Sir, please forgive him. Please cut off my hand instead.

Please!

Doctor Heo has been doing nothing but care for the patient with all of his heart.

Please don't hurt him. Please forgive him!

What are you waiting for? Drag her out!

Sir, Sir! Please forgive Doctor Heo!

Please! Please forgive him! Sir! Sir!

Doctor Heo! Doctor Heo!

Drag that one away, too.

Doctor Heo! Doctor Heo!

Doctor Heo was taken away to be punished.

Considering Lady Kong-bin's orders, I think they will cut off Doctor Heo's hand.

Milord, please stop them.

Milord!

He failed to keep his promise.

I am also responsible for Doctor Heo's failure.

There's nothing I can do at this point.

Do it.

Stop!

Stop, Doctor Kim!

Sir, is this the only way to punish him?

We have our orders.

Doctor Heo, take your hand off.

You know whose order this is. How can you stop me?

Sir.

You are of nobility and respected. But stay out of this.

Sir.

I am doing this on Lady Kong-bin's order.

This is to discipline all personnel of the royal medical bureau.

Move out of the way!

Sir!

Sir, I'll go and beg to Her Ladyship.

I'll go and beg the lady myself. Please do not cut off his hand!

Please forgive Doctor Heo!

I cannot forgive him.

Sir!

Facial nerve paralysis is an easy condition

and should have been cured in three days.

But Heo Jun fooled the king and failed to make the patient any better.

He gave all of us a bad reputation.

Even if Lady Kong-bin forgives him, I cannot forgive his impudence.

Sir!

Furthermore!

There is one more reason I can't forgive him.

He used moxibustion and all kinds of unconventional prescriptions.

This shows how much he held my skills in contempt.

If I let him get away with this, how am I supposed to discipline others?

As the head of our institution and for the royal family,

forgiving Heo Jun's haughty offense would be neglecting my duty.

Stop letting your personal feelings get in the way!

On the first night he began the treatment, I was there all night with him.

Although it was unusual, he did so with knowledge and conviction.

Please wait a few more days before you punish him.

- Sir! - Sir!

- Please forgive him. - Give him a few more days.

If the patient doesn't get better, then you can punish him.

Please give him a few more days.

Even a few more months won't cure him.

The patient has gastric cancer. There is no medicine for that.

Gastric cancer can be cured!

He has been cured.

I'm sure of it.

Nobody has survived that disease. Are you trying to fool me again?

My patient had begun to show signs of improvement.

Signs?

The patient vomited blood and pieces of tumor from within.

That is a sign that he had passed the critical stage.

He vomited the tumor?

Yes, sir.

I saw the patient that my teacher cured, and he vomited the same.

I saw with my own eyes how the patient got better with the treatment.

Your evidence is based on Yu Eui-tae's method?

I can imagine how shallow that is.

He was an old country fool who thought too highly of himself.

How dare you challenge the bureau on his account?

Sir!

I apologize for making you upset.

It's too late for apologies.

I am not begging you to save my hand.

I am ready take whatever punishment you give me.

But apologize for the degrading comment you made about my late teacher.

What?

Gastric cancer can be cured!

So were you successful? The time that you promised has passed.

I have faith in my treatment.

You didn't even see a real stomach, and you say gastric cancer can be cured?

You are a fool...

I have seen...!

...the cancerous tumor in a stomach.

You have seen it?

Are you saying you've cut open a human body?

Answer me!

Have you seen what a stomach looks like?

I drew Doctor Yu's insides.

The stomach is 18 cm down from the throat,

with 4 inches of space between the chest and navel.

The stomach is a "chi" plus six inches long, and about half as wide.

The length of the esophagus is slightly shorter.

It can store six and two-third quarts of food and water.

Food can be stored up to four and a half quarts.

Water up to three liters.

With over six quarts of food and water, the stomach looks full.

Food should be excreted once a day, and the amount is about two pounds.

If a person excretes without eating, after fourteen days,

all the stored nutrients will run out and he will lose his life.

That is how the human stomach is shaped.

How do you know that?

My teacher had gastric cancer.

I cut open...

...my teacher's body.

Teacher...

He wanted me to find the cures for all diseases.

I obeyed, knowing that it was the only way for his name to live on.

What is the point of listening to this? Let's carry out the punishment.

Stop!

Stop the punishment!

Stop!

Stop the punishment!

Stop! Stop the punishment!

Stop!

Stop the punishment!

What's the matter?

The patient has been cured.

He has been cured. Stop the punishment.

What do you mean the patient is cured?

He is fine now. Lady Kong-bin's brother is cured.

Doctor Heo!

Come with me. His Majesty wishes to see you.

Please tell me more about how it happened.

After you were taken away, he demanded liquor and yelled loudly.

Just then, his mouth came back to normal.

Her Ladyship pinched and pulled his cheek in disbelief,

but the condition was cured completely.

And the small tumor underneath his chest was gone also.

Are you sure that the tumor is gone?

I felt it myself, but there was nothing there.

The king felt the chest as well, and the lady also did the same.

And there was no longer a lump to be felt.

Teacher...

My teacher...

Doctor, we must hurry! Let's go!

Come on, are you gonna keep His Majesty waiting?

Are you going to disobey his command?

Hurry up and go. Check the patient's condition yourself.

May I be excused?

May I be excused, sir?

Doctor Heo, hurry up and go.

Hurry!

So you are originally from Yongcheon?

Yes, Your Majesty.

I shall always remember your name.

Although I briefly thought you failed to cure him,

I have seen how hard you worked, and I thought punishing you was cruel.

But his face is back to normal and the cancerous tumor is gone.

I am very pleased.

I am grateful, Your Majesty.

You were gifted with your skills so that you could cure many sick people.

I hope you strive even harder for the benefit of all those suffering.

I will do my best, Your Majesty.

Please forgive me for misunderstanding after listening to my impatient brother.

Although his face has turned to normal, it is too early to think he is fully cured.

The recovery will take some time, so he must be careful of what he eats.

He will do as you say. Anything you say.

I'm sure he'll always be grateful.

I hear that you have an aging mother. I'd like to express my gratitude.

The doctor must be exhausted. Have him return home and rest.

Yes, Sire.

I know there are others who assisted him.

I want them to be awarded. Tell them how pleased I am.

It'll be done, Sire.

Let me pour you a drink.

Let's drink!

Doctor Heo is definitely the best at making a man's heart drop.

Whenever I think about the cutter, I feel like peeing in my pants.

If he was able to cure him that easily, why did he make us worry so much?

Exactly my point!

Eat up. Dig in!

I'll pour you a drink.

Good job, girls.

There will be a separate reward for you two.

Sir!

This is the royal feast we got thanks to Doctor Heo.

Would you like to join us?

No, thanks.

Let's go.

They're all delicacies.

Da-hee! Da-hee!

Did you hear?

About what?

What brings you here?

How have you been?

Did you hear? Doctor Heo saved Lady Kong-bin's brother.

People from the palace are heading towards their house with the king's gifts.

Why are you telling me this?

I was passing by, and I thought you'd be interested.

Please excuse me.

I need to hurry if I want to join in His Majesty's feast.

Good-bye.

How wonderful! What a blessing!

That darn wench! What is the fuss over a few gifts?

My son Do-ji received precious liquor from the king before.

Why do I feel so frustrated? Get me some water.

Yes, Milady.

Geez, it's hard to wait.

Honey!

They're not here yet?

So frustrating! When are they coming?

Oh! They're coming!

Jun.

Mother.

My husband.
