Doctor Stranger

Water boy.

I told Ah Young....

...not to cancel their wedding hall.

Can you please let my Ah Young...

...get married and be happy like everyone else?

Please?

Please, water boy?

Leave!

Please? Just this time.

I want to be a good older brother to her.

What's going on?

Messer.

What are you doing, Dr. Park?

What's going on?

You know.

I lost.

What's going on?

Premier Jang?

Yes, sir.

I asked for an explanation.

It's game over.

Father.

What did you just say?

I lost.

Say it once more.

I said I lost...

...so drop your scalpel.

[Episode 18]

Thank you.

[Head Surgeon: Park Hoon]

[Head Surgeon: Han Jae Joon]

Do you realize what you've done?

I'm sorry.

Do you genuinely mean that?

Do you have any idea how I got here? How could you...

I'm Moon Hyung Wook.

I won't go down without a fight.

Have you ever seen weeds that died when stepped on them?

You see, I'm a weed!

That was just like you, Dr. Park.

You know that, right?

I'm sorry, Hoon.

It's the best thing I can do for you.

That was so you.

I'm sorry.

There's nothing to be sorry about.

I knew it would happen.

You were just a big hypocrite...

...from the beginning.

Jae Hee...

What did you do to my father?

I heard you transplanted his kidney to me...

...and that's what killed him.

How did you find out?

Premier Jang told me just before this surgery.

He said Cha Jin Soo told him.

Tell me.

What did you do to my father?

I... I...

...didn't have any other choice.

Please save her.

I can die peacefully...

...but she has to meet...

...someone in the future.

Please, I beg you.

Please save my Jae Hee.

I'm sorry.

You're sorry?

For what?

For killing my father? Or...

...for sparing my life?

It was the best I could do.

What is that supposed to mean?

Why didn't you just leave me to die?

Jae Hee...

I could have died peacefully...

...cherishing my love for you.

You did it to save my life?

How can you call that true love?

You killed my father to save me!

No, that's not true love.

It was just your greed to save a woman you liked.

Your greed sacrificed my father...

...and you've hidden it from me all along.

You don't really love me. It's all a lie.

You just felt guilty for what you've done.

You only want to repay the debt you feel like you owe me.

Jae Hee, please stop.

Wouldn't it scare me?

You acted...

...like you were a real doctor in front of me.

You said you wanted to win...

...the competition and go with me.

So why didn't you do the surgery?

You said you'd never let me go anywhere by myself!

So why?

It was all hypocritical.

- Jae Hee... - Don't ever call me that.

I never want to see you again.

I...

...will never forgive you.

Then Han Jae Joon will be the head surgeon?

How do you feel about it?

Do as you wish.

Let's schedule the surgery for next week.

I'll tell the secretary to take care of it.

Then which hospital are we going with?

Isn't your surgery supposed to be at Myung Woo?

What's wrong?

She told me to never call her.

She said she never wants to see me again...

...and that she'll never forgive me.

I just wanted to save her, that's all.

I was going to tell her when the time was right.

Actually...

...I couldn't tell her what I did.

If Jae Hee hadn't found out...

...I would've kept it secret.

I'm a terrible person.

Father told me to never forget that I'm a doctor...

...but I haven't been one...

...from the beginning, mom.

Oh, Dr. Han!

What brings you here?

I'm here to congratulate you...

...on your sweet victory.

I never knew you were this friendly.

My life motto is just to live...

...a long, decent life.

You have to be friendly to survive in a place like this.

Show me your leniency this time.

[Director]

Come in.

I'm sorry.

This journey's taken too long.

It has indeed!

But good work! Have a seat.

When is the board meeting?

In half an hour, sir.

Let's go together.

To the board meeting?

I promised you...

...that you'll have my spot.

I'm very clear about my favorites.

Then what about Professor Moon?

He'll be transferred to the branch, of course.

We'll take care of our personnel shortage...

...by pulling in other doctors from the branch.

What about Dr. Park Hoon?

I told Sang Jin to look for anything...

...that could get his medical license revoked.

If he can't find something...

...I'll pressure the board to make it happen.

Is there a reason...

...you hate him so much?

There is!

His father...

...foolishly challenged me before.

His name was Park Cheol.

A long time ago, he threatened Myung Woo...

...with a medical lawsuit.

If I hadn't gotten rid of him back then...

...Myung Woo wouldn't be here today.

We've had a 10% drop in profit compared to the early 2000s.

It's only a transient phenomenon due to a smaller volume of patients.

What's going on with...

...restrictions and permissions?

It's up to the board...

...but I assume it'll be determined shortly.

My father didn't go to North Korea...

...because of his ambition.

He went to stop a war.

Actually, it's because he was tricked into doing it...

...by Oh Joon Gyu and Jang Seok Joo.

Dr. Han.

Hello there, Dr. Han.

Excuse me?

Give them a speech!

About what?

He seems really lost.

Of course, it must be hard to believe...

...he's the youngest person ever to take over...

...the role of director at Myung Woo.

Everyone voted for it.

Please stand up.

If you hadn't been goofing around and studied instead...

...we never would've had a hard time...

...trying to decide whether or not I needed surgery.

Sorry.

That doesn't solve anything.

Ah Young.

What?

I won't say I'll try hard...

...nor promise you I'll be a good brother...

...but...

...I promise that I'll do your surgery...

...in future.

Do you mean that?

Yes.

Ahh!

[Oppa: an older brother or male]

Thank you, *Oppa.

But...

...keep your word.

Alright?

[Manager Han]

How can I help you?

Can I have four of these?

Four Combo Ds.

I'm sorry.

About?

Not respecting your decision.

I'm very sorry about that.

It's not a big deal. Cheer up.

I would've thought it over a million times...

...if I were in your shoes.

But...

Go have a seat.

Here's your order.

Can you get a hold of Dr. Park?

He's not answering his phone?

Can you ask him to call me when you see him?

[Letter of Resignation]

There was a spot at a public clinic and I decided to transfer.

When Professor Moon leaves...

...the assistant professor position will be vacant.

Sure, but at a really dirty place.

There's something else inside...

...other than my resignation.

It's a letter about the things I was asked to do...

...by you and by the director.

Is that a threat?

No, it's my advice.

I'm telling you that you should get yourself out of this hell.

I don't want to be here as a stranger for the rest of my life.

[Letter of Resignation]

[Oh Sang Jin]

Han Jae Joon speaking.

Can you please come to the director's office?

I thought the director called me.

It's important. Please have a read.

I was supposed to do it...

...but there's a dinner for the board of directors.

[Myung Woo Hospital, Jae Joo Branch]

[History of Development Funds]

[Restricted Document]

One more thing, Dr. Han.

You can just give it to Attorney Kim.

Sure.

Have a seat.

Where is Sang Jin?

He gave it to Dr. Han to pass it on.

What a fool. Why is he passing the buck?

Call Sang Jin. Tell him to come home now.

Yes, sir.

How come...

...the two of you aren't talking to each other now?

Oh, we aren't?

I thought he must be tired from today.

Soo Hyun.

Did you know Dr. Han is taking over my spot?

Yes.

"Yes"? That's it?

Congratulations, Jae Joon.

- Thank you. - Good.

I'm planning a party to celebrate.

- A party? - That's right.

We now have a team for the premier's surgery...

...and Dr. Han is our new acting director.

We should celebrate all of that.

Finally, we should also get the relationship between you two cleared up.

What relationship?

Why do you even need to ask that? You should get married!

Sounds good?

- It does. - Jae Joon...

I'm sorry I'm late.

Do you know what this is?

How could you let Dr. Han get his hands on it?

He's taking over for you.

I assumed it was okay.

Even so.

Do you think this is just useless paper?

I'm sorry.

But it's Dr. Han we trust!

Quiet!

Don't worry too much...

...about our marriage.

I'll take care of it.

I'm sorry.

It's alright.

I'm sorry.

I...

...misunderstood Dr. Park.

Misunderstood what?

I...

I've changed my mind.

He's an okay person for you to like.

Just remember that.

Hey.

You're already here, Dr. Oh!

Yeah.

Why did our manager call us?

He wants to talk about Dr. Keum's wedding...

...and our surgery team.

Where is Dr. Han?

He's with the board.

Is he really the director now?

He's the acting director now.

It's basically the same thing.

Wow. That's amazing.

He finally conquered the castle.

What castle?

He was always joking...

...about a knight trying to win the princess...

...so he could have the castle one day.

The thing is, he was always in agony...

...because he actually fell in love...

...with the princess.

How can he conquer the castle then?

Exactly.

He said he was really heartbroken...

...when he saw the princess get dumped...

...by another knight and cried her eyes out.

Nah, that's what I thought at first, but it's not about you.

You two are already really close.

More importantly...

...you don't go after other knights.

Listen to me carefully.

Please forgive me...

...for everything I'll do.

Did he ever say...

...why he wants to conquer the castle?

I don't think so, but I don't really remember.

The customer you're calling is unavailable...

Dr. Park!

What do you mean Dr. Han is planning something?

I'm asking just in case you know.

He wants to be the boss at your hospital...

...after he successfully finishes the premier's surgery.

But he said something really weird to me.

What was it?

He asked me to forgive him...

...for what he'll do.

What he'll do?

That's what he said.

I'm worried.

I don't recall telling you...

...about North Korea.

I made a friend at Harvard.

His name was Lee Sung Hoon.

What's wrong?

You don't think he's planning...

...on doing something really bad, do you?

Do you know his friend Lee Sung Hoon?

No, I don't. Who's that?

He's the son of a victim involved...

...in a medical lawsuit that happened twenty years ago.

It's got to do with why I was sent to North Korea.

Then Jae Joon must be...

No, that can't be.

Right?

Watch me father.

My first revenge begins tomorrow.

Where's the water boy?

I don't know and I don't care.

He was on your side.

Don't you know?

There's no such thing as a lifelong friend or enemy.

Director!

Wow.

He's like a weed.

Hello.

Today is to celebrate...

...our honor to being chosen to do the premier's surgery.

Now we'll have a speech from Dr. Han Jae Joon...

...who will be the head surgeon...

...for the premier's surgery.

Yeah!

I would first like to thank our director...

...for preparing all of this.

I would also like to thank my fellow doctors...

...who put in so much hard work...

...during the process of selecting the team.

Since we're out of the hospital...

...I hope all of you will...

...really enjoy your time. Thank you.

Myung Woo's director also has an important announcement...

...to make after the meal.

Please stay with us until the end.

Ah, nice to see you, director!

- How have you been? - Great.

You always look great.

- It's good to see you healthy. - Thank you.

Jae Joon?

I have something to ask you.

Don't worry.

He won't be able to...

...announce our wedding here.

That's not what I meant.

Why did you ask to see me?

I have an apology to make.

I was...

...wrong about your father.

Is that why you called me all the way out here?

I want to stay on good terms with you.

I also have a favor to ask you.

No thank you.

I don't have time to do you favors.

It's about...

...Dr. Oh.

Soo Hyun...

...really likes you.

Then did you really not like her?

Let's not joke around.

Don't hurt her anymore...

...or else you'll get much more in return.

My advice for you is not to do anything you'll regret.

Be honest and tell her if you're hiding anything.

Apologize if you have to...

...before it's too late.

I can't...

...tell Soo Hyun what I'm going to do...

...nor get her forgiveness.

Then you don't have to do it.

It's already begun.

- What's going on? - Mr. Oh Sang Jin?

That's me.

[Arrest Warrant]

We're arresting you for...

...peculation of public funds and illegal bribery.

- Father... - Where are you from?

Do you know what this is for?

What's all the trouble about?

We'll explain everything at the station.

Which station?

You can't just take people like this!

Can't you see the warrant?

Let's go!

Father!

Father!

Father!

Did you do that?

This is just the beginning.

Things are going to happen...

...that will deeply scar Soo Hyun.

I had some doubt...

...but you're Lee Sung Hoon.

Are you...

...trying to get revenge or something?

If you were Lee Sung Hoon wouldn't you do the same?

I lost my father...

...and my mother.

For past twenty years...

...I've only been able to think...

...about how unfairly they were treated.

I've waited to repay their deep resentment...

...and now is the perfect time.

I should do it.

This is the father of the woman you love.

It's who Han Jae Joon loved.

Not Lee Sung Hoon.

You're wrong.

Both Han Jae Joon and Lee Sung Hoon...

...loved Oh Soo Hyun.

Isn't that right?

What happened?

The police got an anonymous letter.

What anonymous letter? Who would send that?

They said it's protected. They can't tell us.

But thankfully, I have on old classmate...

...in the team working on this case.

So who is it?

He's name is Lee Sung Hoon.

Have you...

...heard that name before?

Lee Sung Hoon?

Yes.

Jae Joon, are you really...

...Lee Sung Hoon?

Are you Lee Sung Hoon?

Is it that important?

Tell me!

Listen.

It doesn't matter who I am.

What it matters is that...

...we need to correct what happened twenty years ago.

Is that it?

Call the police and get revenge?

Don't you get it?

There's only one thing Lee Sung Hoon wants.

It's a sincere apology.

Who is...

...Lee Sung Hoon?

His father died at our hospital...

...twenty years ago.

We...

...were about to get clearance to become a university hospital.

I didn't want his lawsuit to interfere...

...with getting permission for that.

It's true that...

...if I hadn't stopped that lawsuit...

...our hospital would have been torn down.

I met Lee Sung Hoon.

I don't wish misfortune on him or you.

Where is he?

Father.

Apologize to him.

Apologize?

You saw it before.

If you sincerely apologize...

...you can be forgiven.

I didn't do anything wrong.

Actually...

...I only did what I had to for Myung Woo.

Something terrible could happen to you too!

He can bring it on.

I'm not going to fall that easily.

I'm Oh Joon Gyu.

Father...

Leave.

[Dr. Park Hoon]

[9 missed calls]

[Jang Seok Joo]

I have to go this far...

...to get people to believe the surgery is for me.

Don't you agree?

I heard an executive director...

...named Oh Sang Jin has been arrested.

It's because of Dr. Han.

What's his true identity?

His real name is Lee Sung Hoon.

His father died from a medical accident...

...at Myung Woo twenty years ago.

I'll take care of that matter.

You just need to focus on the surgery.

About Park Hoon and his mother...

I'll send them...

...somewhere safe like I promised.

Where is that?

How can I help you?

I'm from the premier's office.

These are flight tickets...

...for you and your mother to Switzerland.

There's also some money.

Switzerland?

Once you get there...

...he said you're free to go wherever.

Let's go.

I have to see Jae Hee.

You can't. We don't have much time.

Tell the premier...

...I'm not going anywhere without seeing Jae Hee.

Why are you avoiding me?

Why aren't you answering my calls?

Leave with your mother.

I understand why you're acting like this.

- But... - No.

You don't.

Your father asked me to save your life.

He said I had to save you...

That's a lame excuse.

I can't be with you anymore.

Please leave.

This is the best way for you.

I'll come to get you back...

...after I have my mother somewhere safe.

No thank you.

Don't come back. This is the end.

Our business together is through!

I made a promise to your father.

I promised him that I'd protect you.

If your guilt is what's holding you back...

...then you can just let it go.

It's not.

This isn't out of guilt.

I'm leaving.

Good bye.

Forget everything about me and my father.

Free your mind from it.

I hope you have a good life.

[Park Hoon, Thoracic Surgeon]

[Specialization in coronary artery disease and heart transplants]

[Park Hoon's surgery records]

Call Premier Jang.

Yes, sir.

What's going on?

He said it won't take long.

It's even more annoying...

...when he calls me in for short talks.

And make sure...

...you send Park Hoon off without any pain.

Alright?

Yes, sir.

What's going on?

I'm just doing what I'm told.

The surgery is next Monday.

Han Jae Joon will be the head surgeon?

Yes.

But...

Dr. Park Hoon...

Yes?

He's very foolish to give up on this surgery.

I think they're on the same level when it comes to skill.

I don't understand why he'd give up...

...such an excellent opportunity.

He is foolish...

...just like you said, Mr. President.

Foolish, eh?

Hello.

Yes?

Alright.

He's not foolish.

He just thinks about the patient.

Yes, but Han Jae Joon still won the competition.

Isn't a true doctor...

...supposed to think more about his patients...

...than his victory?

Do you think so?

If you were going to be the patient...

...I'm sure...

...you'd choose a doctor like Park Hoon.

It's me, Dr. Park.

You son of a bitch!

You never wanted to have me alive!

But you're still alive, aren't you?

The president wants you as the head surgeon.

Do you...

...think I'll be your puppet?

You should.

Your mother's life is what's on the line.

Park Hoon will lead?

What are you talking about?

It's the president's order.

It's his heart.

What more do I need to say?

Park Hoon is still a doctor at Myung Woo.

Myung Woo will get the same benefits.

I'll get rid of Park Hoon...

...as soon as we're done with the surgery.

Just hang in there a bit more.

The surgery must go on.

You understand what I mean?

Alright.

I talked with the prosecutors.

Your son will be out soon.

Thank you.

I'll call Dr. Han...

...personally.

The head surgeon has changed?

Right, I'm sorry to tell you.

It doesn't matter.

The director's son...

...will be released shortly.

I'm warning you.

I can reverse everything you do.

Remember that.

I'll give you a chance...

...to fight Oh Joon Gyu after the surgery is done.

Don't do anything before then.

Understand?

Jeez, I'm sick of this. I just have one more week left.

Hi there.

Where's my mom?

We're talking good care of her.

Relax.

She'll be safe after...

...you do a good surgery.

I don't believe a word you say.

Okay.

Then let me word it carefully.

If you say anything unnecessary...

...or do anything that will bother me...

...your mother will die.

How does that sound?

The president chose me to do his surgery.

What about your mother?

She'll be alright.

They'll have to take good care of her...

...now that I'm the head surgeon.

What are you going to do now?

The same thing I said I would.

You just need to do a good job...

...and I'll take care of the rest.

You might not get a chance to meet him by yourself.

Jang Seok Joo's people will be watching him around the clock.

During the years I was with Cha Jin Soo...

...I was trained to take people down.

Take them down?

Did you think I've only been trained to do anesthesia?

- What's wrong with you? - You're right.

If I'd known in advance that you killed my father...

...I wouldn't gone through what I did.

I wouldn't have missed you one bit.

What if everything goes flawlessly...

...just like you've planned?

I don't know yet.

One thing for sure...

...is that I won't be with you.

If it's about Lee Sung Hoon, leave!

Listen even if you don't want to.

He was adopted to the U.S. after the lawsuit.

Leave!

He came back to Korea to get his revenge on you.

Why did you see him? It doesn't do us any good.

You saw how my brother was arrested!

That's been resolved!

Apologize to him sincerely.

I guarantee he'll forgive you.

Apologize?

Ignorant child.

I didn't do anything wrong.

Are you sure about that?

He lost his father.

Then he lost his mother too...

...because the lawsuit kept getting postponed.

He turned into an orphan overnight...

...so just apologize and ask for forgiveness!

Shut your mouth!

Father.

Do you really not know what you've done wrong?

I told you I didn't do anything wrong!

He's trying to mess with me?

Let him do his worst.

He can do whatever he wants.

I won't even blink.

Jae Joon.

I...

I know you used me...

...and kept secrets from me.

I'll forget everything that happened...

...but can you please stop here?

I'm sorry, Soo Hyun.

I haven't told him anything yet.

I'll convince him, though.

Can you please stop here?

Don't try too hard.

You...

...have a task to do.

Is it about Lee Sung Hoon?

That's right.

I just met with him.

Really?

What does he want?

How much does he want?

He said he doesn't need money.

He was really something...

...even when he was a kid.

Don't you ever forget.

My father was Lee Do Sun...

...and I'm Lee Sung Hoon.

Remember those names.

Remember who will get revenge on you!

I never knew he'd...

...stab me in the back twenty years later.

He'll stop with his revenge...

...if you admit your mistakes...

...and sincerely apologize now.

Admit what?

Apologize for what?

Ignorant child.

I don't have anything to admit or apologize for.

Stopping that lawsuit was...

...the best thing I've ever done.

If the lawsuit had gone through...

...our Myung Woo...

...would have burned to ash.

Have you ever thought...

...you were wrong?

Never!

I...

I, Oh Joon Gyu, protected Myung Woo.

Nobody will bring it down!

Maybe Lee Sung Hoon's given you one last chance.

What last chance?

This is your last chance...

...to apologize for what you've done.

The victims of medical accidents...

...just want genuine apologies.

- Even last time... - Enough nonsense!

Then what if...

...Lee Sung Hoon does something really dangerous?

He can try me.

He can try to get revenge or retaliate...

...or do whatever else he desires.

He can try everything in his power...

...but he'll never be able to take me down.

Do you really think so?

Even Sang Jin's charges have been dismissed.

But I don't think you can stop...

...what's about to happen.

The branch at Jae Joo...

...won't be able to open.

Lee Sung Hoon gave Myung Woo's...

...financial history to the Bank of Korea.

You won't be able to ask for further loans.

They'll ask you for repayment soon.

What?

Lee Sung Hoon also...

...has contacted reporters.

He told them about...

...missing funds from building a school...

...and all the bribery connected with it.

I'm sure you're already aware of everything...

...including the unfair medical fees you've asked for over...

...the last three years that have to be repaid at five times the original expense.

I'm sure it's a fortune.

Lee Sung Hoon.

Lee Sung Hoon, you little!

How... How dare you...

...try to mess with me?

Can you...

...try to figure out...

...how to stop him?

He's not done yet.

He's going to expose...

...the politicians Myung Woo bribed twenty years ago...

...to get its license as a university hospital.

What?

Premier Jang Seok Joo...

...is on the top of that list.

Bring him!

Bring Lee Sung Hoon to me.

Right now!

What's going on?

Jae Joon.

Jae Joon!

Every day of the past twenty years...

...he's been taking notes on you.

As his notebook grew thicker...

...and he started to see his chance...

...he also got scared.

What if you admit your mistakes from the past...

...and sincerely apologize for them?

He thought through it over and over.

He debated...

...whether or not he should forgive you...

...if you were sorry about it.

What if I forgave you?

What would happen to my life?

He thought it over and over.

But I'm glad.

What...

...do you mean?

You haven't changed a bit.

I'm so glad to see that.

Actually...

...I want to thank you.

Are you...

Are you?

Yes.

I'm the kid Lee Sung Hoon...

...from twenty years ago.

Thank you for making my life...

...meaningful...

...Director Oh Joon Gyu.

You...

You...

How could you?

Get the spare keys!

Okay!

Father!

Father, are you alright?

Jae Joon!

Jae Joon!

Father!

Father, are you alright?

Jae Joon!
