HOSPITAL PLAYLIST 2

Professor Yang, it's me, Min-ha.

Do you have any plans for this evening?

If not, let's have dinner together at the steakhouse across the street.

At 7:30 p.m.

No pressure though. You don't have to come.

My friend lives in the area, so I can eat with her if you can't come.

But I really hope you can come.

SORRY, JUST HAVE DINNER WITH YOUR FRIENDS

SORRY, JUST HAVE DINNER WITH YOUR FRIENDS, MERRY CHRISTMAS

SORRY, JUST HAVE DINNER WITH YOUR FRIENDS

YOON SIN-HYE

Hello?

What about a CT scan?

He's conscious?

Yeah, he got a CT scan done.

The Professor of Neurosurgery said they'd just have to monitor him tonight.

Is that okay though?

I'll be there in a minute.

THE STEAKHOUSE IN FRONT OF THE HOSPITAL

You go ahead.

My gosh.

Yeah, please go ahead.

SORRY, JUST HAVE DINNER WITH YOUR FRIENDS

Hey, Seok-hyeong! You're still here?

This is Kang So-ye. She's a good friend of mine.

She's going to join our hospital as a fellow next year,

but she wanted to learn the job in advance. How kind!

Yes, thank you.

-Hello. -Hello.

Just now, Professor Yoon Seon-ju…

He was just admitted, right? Cerebral hemorrhage, in his seventies.

Yes, the CT scan shows ICH in the right basal ganglia.

I'd say about 15cc,

which isn't a lot, thankfully.

The CT angiogram shows no abnormalities.

His mental status is alert, but the left side motor response is poor.

We're going to monitor him all night. Why? Do you know him?

He's a famous professor.

Over here.

Who's on duty tonight for Neurosurgery?

Professor Choi Hyeong-su. He came and left.

Seok-hyeong.

Yes.

EMERGENCY CENTER

Who is she?

Cheers!

It's a Christmas gift from our chef. Enjoy.

What a stingy chef.

This is tiny!

THE STEAKHOUSE IN FRONT OF THE HOSPITAL

Wash up later. The bathroom's flooded right now.

Hey, where were you? I called you twice.

The study session ended just now. What's up? Is something up?

No, it's fine.

Liar. You're obviously not okay.

-What? -You miss me.

Gosh, what should we do? There's no medicine for this.

Should I come see you? Should I get on the bus now?

I really miss you a lot.

I miss you so much that I'm about to get a sty…

Hold on.

Go away. Get lost.

I'm off anyway.

I can't stand to watch any more of this.

Jeong-won dropped by.

Ik-sun, the ring got sent back to the hospital.

I received it today.

It got sent back? Why?

It just says, "Return to sender."

That's odd. I was home all week. Last week too.

Let me ask my friend in the room next to mine. I'll call you back.

All right.

He can't move one arm and threw up earlier.

Doesn't he need surgery?

No. It's only a little bit of blood, so the meds will do.

They're right in putting him on meds

that can lower the intracranial pressure and BP.

But what if the bleeding gets worse overnight?

What if his condition worsens?

The bleeding could increase.

But I'm sure the ICU staff will keep taking CT scans to check.

If the bleeding worsens, we'll insert a long tube

called a catheter to drain the blood.

If the bleeding worsens significantly,

we'll go into surgery right away.

But at the moment, we don't know.

We have no idea whether or not the bleeding will worsen,

so let's wait and see. We can decide later.

This is why it's important to know someone who works in a hospital.

Thank you for stopping by.

No problem.

The ICU is full at the moment, so he'll have to wait a little.

You should sit down and get some rest. It won't take too long.

See if you can speed it up a little…

for old times' sake.

Okay.

Did you have dinner?

No.

He suddenly collapsed on our way to a family dinner.

So we brought him here.

None of us had dinner.

I see.

Mom must be hungry.

Is there a gimbap place nearby? Or even just a convenience store.

Yes, there's a gimbap place across the street.

It should still be open.

-Come with me. -What?

Okay.

It's snowing a lot outside.

-It's okay. -Thank you.

We're stepping out to get gimbap. It'll be quick.

Let's go, Seok-hyeong.

It's so cold!

Oh, no. What should I do?

I'm here. I'm right in front of the ER now.

My gosh, it's snowing so much right now.

I just saw your text.

You're back already? You said you had a date this evening.

Did I?

I was joking. A date, my foot.

Anyway, I'm heading in now.

Wait at the station, okay?

Gosh, it's so cold.

-Merry Christmas. -Merry Christmas.

The half-dried herring actually goes quite well with wine.

-Doesn't it? -Yes, it's very nice.

Good choice, Kettle.

What kettle? What brand is it?

He calls me Kettle, Mr. Kettle.

Oh, I see.

What are you doing? Hurry up!

It must be good news, right?

That's what you want to tell me. That's why you're coming to see me!

What is the good news that you're thinking of?

What do you think? You staying right by my side forever, obviously.

Let's talk in person on the weekend.

Okay. I'll be waiting, with the red carpet rolled out just for you.

I love you, son!

Jong-su, pour me some wine. All the way to the top.

What's going on? What did Jeong-won say?

Sounds like he decided not to quit.

Really?

That's great.

My, that's such good news. Great news!

Really? He told me that he was leaving soon.

He's not going anywhere. He's had a change of heart.

He's visiting Yangpyeong this Sunday,

but his flight was booked for this Sunday.

What does that mean? Clearly, he's decided to stay!

And I think Jeong-won's got a girlfriend.

What does her family do?

What does her father do?

How would I know? And who cares what her family does?

I'm just grateful that my 40-year-old son has finally got a girlfriend!

That's such great news for the hospital.

I was really worried about how I'd manage Pediatric Surgery without him.

PEDIATRIC SURGERY AHN JEONG-WON

Gosh, it's Professor Ahn.

Answer it. Hurry, quick!

Hi, Professor Ahn. What's up?

Me? I'm with your mother now.

Right.

Can I stop by your office for a moment tomorrow morning?

I need to have a word with you.

Yes, of course. You can stop by for ten hours, if you'd like.

You can come by anytime.

Okay. Then I'll come by before my outpatient appointments.

Great, I'll see you tomorrow.

Hey, what's our next song?

"I'm okay now. I've given up on love."

"Why am I crying like a fool?" By the way…

Someone's dating.

Seok-hyeong is seeing someone, right?

Well, I'm not sure. He didn't say anything to me.

The song choice is pretty suspicious.

Hey! I figured out why. My goodness.

Hold on. Hold on a second.

Just a second.

It got sent back because no one was there?

That's the way it's done here.

The mailman must have come when I stepped out for a moment last week.

Se-gyeong told me they'd redeliver it

if I called the post office and confirmed the details,

but I'd have to call right away.

I can't believe it got sent back.

I'll send it again.

No, it's okay. What if something goes wrong again?

Just give it to me in person when I'm back in Korea.

When will that be?

I don't know.

All right. Then I'll hold onto it for now.

I don't want you to be stuck at home waiting for the ring.

How's studying going?

It's hard. I should've done this sooner. I'm physically struggling.

I get tired so easily.

Doesn't my face look weird now? Look.

You look pretty. You don't look weird at all.

I guess your friend is helping you out a lot.

Yes, Se-gyeong helps me out so much.

She came here just a little before I did, but she's like a native Londoner.

My gosh, your friend is better than your boyfriend.

Jun-wan, I know it's late, but Merry Christmas.

-It'll be Christmas in a few hours there. -Yes.

I'm sorry for leaving you alone.

I'm sorry too. Merry Christmas.

Thanks. I love you.

I love you too.

-I love you. -I love you.

All right.

HOSPITAL PLAYLIST 2

Professor Lee.

How did you know it was me?

Who else would be here at this hour?

By the way…

where are you going so early? You usually sleep in.

-I'm off to work. -I'm sorry?

I haven't been exercising at all, so I feel very unfit these days.

I'm going to bike to work.

This man in black will be off now.

U-ju, see you later. Have fun with Auntie.

My gosh.

Oh, my. When did my son grow so much?

Right?

I feel like he's grown so much overnight.

Isn't it odd?

The New Year is here.

He's had a growth spurt now that he's a year older.

Sorry? You're not making much sense right now.

Auntie.

Sometimes, yesterday feels like today, and vice versa.

And sometimes, the day after tomorrow feels like the past, you know?

Look here.

-Hello, take it easy. -Thank you.

Hey, let's take a break too. I have a headache.

Yes, don't push yourself too hard on a cold day like this.

Come on. We're almost there. Get up.

Hey, what's wrong? Are you okay?

Are you all right?

I'm…

Sir.

Sir, open your eyes. Sir?

Can you describe your symptoms? What's your name?

My head…

I'm a doctor. Can you call an ambulance?

This could be a stroke.

Okay.

911 RESCUE SERVICES

-Can I borrow your penlight? -Sure.

Thankfully, his pupil reaction seems fine.

By the way, where are we taking him? Which hospital?

-We're taking him to Yulje. -Yulje?

It's before the rush hour, so there's no traffic now.

Right, it's still early.

Sir, which hospital do you work at?

If it's on our way back, we'll drop you off.

It's okay. There's no need.

It's really okay.

It's so cold.

I got here way too early.

I got here way too early.

Are you a ghost?

Hey, why are you here?

-Where's your car? -Why are you here so early, sleepyhead?

Something happened. Did you not go to Sokcho?

I have a lecture in the morning. Thank you!

I came early to prepare for it.

I'm getting my new car later today.

Did you bike here? What are you wearing?

-Does it look weird? Do I look lame? -Yes, weird and lame.

Did you have coffee? Don't you need coffee in the morning?

Coffee?

Sure, let's have some coffee. Come to my office.

Okay!

-Good morning. -Hello, Professor Yang.

Hello, good morning.

Hurry.

-Hello, Professor. -Hello, Professor.

Hi, guys.

Aren't you getting in?

I left something in the car.

Go ahead.

Doors are closing.

Ms. Song, ER's sending a patient now. Is that okay?

Tell them it's fine. And see if Room 11 is ready.

Got it. Yes, you can send the patient now.

This patient had a hepatectomy,

but the urine output has decreased a lot. Was everything okay last night?

Yes, I went there and checked.

The patient was fine, and I confirmed that we changed IV bags.

Dr. Jang, Park Cheol-yong in Room 10 has a fever of 37.5 degrees Celsius,

and he's shivering badly. What should we do?

Give him an IV and a fever reducer for now.

-I'll check on him soon. -Okay.

I have surgery first thing in the morning.

You've seen me go to work this early.

I'll be late. I'll call you at night.

All right.

Hey, did you use my shampoo?

No, I didn't.

Jeez, you stingy prick. You can have it all.

Why not? Try it.

It's really good. You should use it too.

I've used it. It was great.

Was he a pitcher or what?

That pitch was so accurate.

Have you been practicing?

Yes, I have.

Then do it in front of me.

You haven't been practicing hard enough.

-This isn't good. -My stomach…

My stomach hurts a lot.

It feels tight, and I feel so weak.

Doctor, please leave it to me. I'll do it at my own pace.

You may have to go back to the ICU if you end up with pneumonia again.

Five times, every hour. Do it properly before you rest.

I'll be back in the afternoon.

I expect you to fully lift a ball when I'm back.

Do you understand?

Yes, Doctor. I'll make sure he practices.

Great. See you later.

What is this patient's diagnosis?

Well…

Age?

I'm sorry, sir.

What kind of surgery has the patient had?

Are you here to just watch me perform surgery?

Make sure you study before you scrub in.

I'm sorry, sir.

Let's do the purse-string suture.

PURSE STRING: TECHNIQUE THAT CLOSES A WOUND LIKE A PURSE

Keep checking the vitals

and check for any drainage color change.

We're doing a Doppler ultrasound today,

so check for fluid collection in the hilum.

Yes, sir.

I'm counting on you guys.

PEDIATRIC SURGERY

Did you count everything?

-We're short of a dressing set. -Room 8 is using one now.

Hello, Professor Ahn.

Hello.

Seung-ho ran a fever last night.

We gave him an IV and a fever reducer, but he still has a mild fever.

A fever is common because of the post-surgery condition of the lungs.

I'll have a look at him when I'm doing rounds later.

Do we have Chae-eun's results?

The liver Doppler ultrasound results look good,

but she's not in a good mood.

She's become a pessimist since getting the liver transplant.

Hi, Chae-eun.

Hello, Professor Ahn.

Chae-eun, Dr. Ahn is here.

-What's the matter? -No idea.

She's been eating well, right?

Yes, she's still a good eater.

I see.

Then I think she can go home tomorrow. All the test results look good.

-I think she'll be fine-- -Doctor.

Yes, Chae-eun.

How much longer do I have to live?

My mom asks you that question all the time.

"How much longer can Chae-eun live with this new liver?"

I don't know either.

But I'm pretty sure you'll outlive me.

You'll live longer than me, so don't worry.

Okay?

All right, see you.

-Jin-u is next. -Okay.

YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

It stings, doesn't it? I'll be gentle. It's almost done.

Okay.

But how many more times do I have to do this?

I really can't get used to this position.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Yes, Professor Yang.

We have a primi-patient, 12 weeks.

She's lost weight because of her morning sickness,

so I told her she should be hospitalized.

I'll get you a new dressing set.

Okay, thank you.

Got it. So just order lab tests and give her an IV?

-Are you doing something now? -Pardon me?

-Are you changing someone's dressing? -Yes.

Then call me when you're done.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Make sure the Hemovac doesn't get disconnected. Close it up well.

Dress the wound thoroughly. See you.

Got it. Thank you, Professor Chae!

-Hey, Seok-min. -I stopped by to see you.

-Where are you now? -I'm busy.

You must not care about me since I'm leaving. Spare me five minutes.

You've been slacking off so often. Don't you have to study?

I was studying until ten minutes ago. Where are you?

The Operating Unit. Come to my office in five minutes.

Why are you in the Operating Unit again?

Jeez, were you assisting Professor Min again?

We're short-staffed, so I had to. Why did you have to leave?

I wish you were here to do these things.

Why did you take care of it when the fellows can do it?

They're the busiest ones here. I have the most time to spare.

Anyway, I'll see you in a bit.

Hey!

Is Chi-hong doing well at the Jongno branch?

Didn't he start at the Jongno branch this week?

Yes, his clinical rotation started today.

He didn't have to go there, but I heard he volunteered.

I suggested he do it.

Professor Chae.

They were short-staffed and needed help.

I figured nothing bad would come out of it.

They handle a wider range of cases.

And the more work you do, the more and quicker you'll learn.

Did I sound like a geezer?

My goodness…

If you're a geezer,

Chae Song-hwa and company are the only ones

who aren't geezers in this hospital.

I don't want to end up being a geezer.

I want to be a villain.

The greatest villain in this entire hospital.

Hey, do you live here?

Yeah, I do. Want some crackers?

That…

Are you eating my crackers?

My gosh. Thank you so much, Professor Chae.

The lecture will happen elsewhere, so I wasn't sure how to bring it up.

My brother was the one who asked me, so I couldn't refuse him.

Asking him will only take a second.

Ik-jun will do it if he's free. He likes doing those things.

It's just that he's always busy.

He's in my office now, so let's ask him.

Thank you.

But does it have to be Ik-jun?

It is mine. Why do you keep eating my snacks?

This is my favorite!

Jeez.

Get out, Ahn Jeong-won.

I said, get out.

Get out! Get out of Jun-wan's body.

Get out at once. You won't?

Get out.

-Stop… -Get out.

Get out. Get lost.

-Leave Jun-wan alone! -Jeez!

Get out.

Professor Lee Ik-jun is very famous as a leading liver transplant specialist.

They specifically requested Professor Lee Ik-jun.

He's a great lecturer on top of being a competent doctor.

He's very charismatic.

Really?

He's a great lecturer on top of being a competent doctor.

He's very charismatic.

Really?

Hey, stop!

He'll do it.

Ik-jun said he'll do it.

Just text me the location and time.

He'll be there. Don't worry.

Talk to you later.

Bye.

Patient Cho Seon-hwa said she was feeling less fetal movement this morning.

-Did you do a nonstress test? -Hello.

Yes, the variability seemed fine.

And she said she's feeling more fetal movement now.

Check her ultrasound and let me know.

Sure.

Min-ha, can you spare me a moment?

Sure.

What happened to your hair? Did you just wash it?

Don't ask.

Jun-wan…

He was possessed by you, so I carried out a little ritual.

What are you talking about?

You are inside me.

You freak.

Kim Jun-wan speaking.

We're having a hard time with the peripheral IV line for Eun-ji.

Okay, I'll check. I'm coming now. Bye, guys.

Where's Seok-hyeong?

He's at a cafe meeting someone.

Who? He's not the type to meet someone at a cafe.

-Is it a woman? -Yes, Yoon Sin-hye.

That name rings a bell.

His ex-wife.

Her father is hospitalized now. He should've told me.

I know. I thought he'd tell us, but he hasn't said a word about it.

Her father will be discharged in a day or two.

She must want to say bye to him in person.

My buddy, Ik-jun.

What's up, my buddy Jeong-won?

I'm curious about something.

What is it?

How is it that you always know everything?

That's because I'm interested in everything.

-I'm curious about something too. -What is it?

How much time do you need to unwrap the damn pickled radish?

Look at her. She ate a whole line of gimbap without it.

There was pickled radish?

I'm sorry.

Pass the phone over to someone else in a situation like that.

The patient must have been uncomfortable.

Right. I'm sorry.

I understand you answered right away because your professor called you,

but don't answer my calls in situations like that.

You can call me back when you're done.

You're right.

Hey, Sin-hye.

I'll be there in three minutes.

It happens. Once is okay.

But not twice, okay?

Got it.

-See you. -Bye.

My gosh, Yeon-u's mother is here again.

Hello, ma'am. Is it raining outside?

No, I brought an umbrella because they said it'd rain,

but it doesn't look like it will.

I was in the area and wanted to stop by. Here, have some tangerines.

They're from my parents' farm.

It's okay. You know that we can't accept any gifts.

I know. I sure do.

I practically lived here for three years.

Then what should I do with these?

I should just throw them away.

Please throw these out for me.

My gosh. Thank you.

By the way, is Dr. Jang Gyeo-ul not here today?

She's in the ICU. Oh, there she is.

Hello, Dr. Jang.

-Hello. -My gosh.

You still seem so busy.

Aren't there any juniors joining this year?

I should file a complaint or something.

No, it's okay. What brings you here today?

Did you want to talk to me about something?

No, I just wanted to stop by because I was in the area.

My friend's daughter turned one today, so I had lunch with them.

The baby's skin was flawless, without a single scar on the face.

But Yeon-u…

That tiny body was covered with scars, you know.

We changed the dressings as often as we could

and paid extra attention to minimize scarring.

We're sorry.

Gosh, don't be.

I know you adored Yeon-u so much.

Was it about a month before Yeon-u died?

In the afternoon,

Yeon-u suddenly started vomiting after taking the meds.

Even then, you took care of everything…

I'm sorry. Just a moment.

Yes, Professor.

Yes. I've wrapped up everything here, so I can go.

Okay.

My professor needs me.

Okay.

Yes. You just need me to procure it, right?

Okay, I'll make sure to check.

Let it go. Just make sure you don't do it again.

Ms. Han.

Why is it that I don't know anything I have not experienced before?

I'm incapable of learning things on my own.

I always start from zero.

I don't have the talent to be a good doctor,

I have no skills, and I'm dumb…

Anyway, I suck at everything.

-Hello? -This is the ER.

We have a 38-year-old patient. She's 19 weeks pregnant.

She's had a watery discharge since lunchtime today.

PROM is suspected. Could you come down and take a look?

She's not a follow-up patient.

She noticed the discharge and came to our ER right away.

Sure, no problem. I have to go.

We managed to do it after we called you.

-Really? The peripheral line is in? -Yes, it's in.

Great, let's get the central line in now.

Okay.

PEDIATRIC INTENSIVE CARE UNIT

And Dr. Do Jae-hak just got here

to see Eun-ji.

NAME: SON EUN-JI CARDIOTHORACIC SURGERY

Oh, dear. The machine is bigger than her.

Eun-ji is waiting for a heart transplant, right?

Yes.

She's been hooked up to the VAD for over three months now,

but we can't find a donor for her.

But Eun-ji is staying strong.

What are you doing here?

-Hello. -Hello, Professor Kim.

I came to see Eun-ji.

Jang Hong-do, right?

Yes, that's right. I'm Jang Hong-do, in third year.

We've met a few times.

Isn't he impressive?

-What do you mean? -He's spending his winter break

working here as a sub-intern instead of hanging out with his friends.

Even Jang Yun-bok, his twin sister--

How's the VAD different from the ECMO?

Well…

Professor Kim.

He should study since that's what he's here to do.

I expect you to have the answer ready the next time I see you.

Yes, sir.

You should go study too.

Don't be one of the few people who fail the board exam.

Does he always have to be so mean?

Eun-ji! She woke up.

Eun-ji, you woke up!

Someone left an umbrella here.

That's Yeon-u's mother's. You can give it to me.

Is this Yeon-u's mother?

To be honest, I don't really get it.

What?

Yeon-u was hospitalized here for a long time

but ended up dying after suffering a lot of pain.

Yeon-u was born prematurely, underwent surgery several times,

and practically lived here for three years.

I only knew Yeon-u for about a year,

but Da-yeong and Dr. Jang saw everything from the time when Yeon-u was a newborn.

-That kid practically grew up here. -Yes.

They had Yeon-u's 100th-day celebration and even their first birthday party here.

I understand she's befriended many people here

and is grateful to the staff, but if I were her…

If my child died here after suffering from an illness for years,

I wouldn't even want to think of this place.

I'd hate to visit.

That said, what if…

She said she'll pick it up tomorrow evening.

It's Yeon-u's birthday tomorrow. She'll bring cake.

-She'll be here again tomorrow? -Yes.

Da-yeong.

I was just thinking,

but do you think that Yeon-u's mother

could be preparing to sue us, thinking that Yeon-u died

because of some kind of mistake that happened here?

Maybe she's coming here so often to obtain clues or evidence.

I'm not sure. She got along with all of us and with the doctors as well.

She still talks to Professor Lee Ji-yeong who performed the surgery.

I'm sure that's not it.

I know, just in case.

Dr. Jang Gyeo-ul and I were always right by Yeon-u's side.

Dr. Jang isn't the type to make mistakes,

which means… Did I make a mistake?

Don't worry. I told you, I was just thinking.

Yes, hello. I'm sure you told Professor Kwon all the details,

but I wanted to ask you about the donor's condition.

Was CPR performed?

Right.

Can you tell me the LFT results and the amount of cardiac stimulant used?

I just wanted to double-check.

Move her to the delivery room.

Doctor. My baby is okay, right?

I'm only 19 weeks pregnant. My water shouldn't break yet.

Nothing will happen, right?

Well, we need to run some tests to find out what's going on.

We also need to find out whether it's amniotic fluid.

Okay.

YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

-Is the professor here yet? -No.

-Who's on duty today? -Professor Yeom Se-hee.

-There she is. -Hello.

She's 19 weeks pregnant.

She's nitrazine positive and has a gross rupture.

Her AFI is 3cm at the moment.

PROM is suspected.

-Did you say 19 weeks? -Yes.

To be exact, 19 weeks and 5 days.

It's too soon.

-Where is she now? -In the MFICU.

No, Doctor.

We went through hoops to conceive this baby.

I'm sorry, but there's nothing we can do at this stage of pregnancy.

You need to be at least 24 weeks pregnant for us to save the baby.

Waiting won't help as it's happening so early in the pregnancy.

Even if we decide to wait, the baby's lungs won't develop properly

because your water broke prematurely.

The baby won't last long at all even if it's born.

And it could cause inflammation, which will also put you in danger.

You probably need…

some time to prepare yourself to say goodbye.

I'll leave you to it.

Premature rupture of membranes at 19 weeks of pregnancy.

Can't keep the baby as she has lost most of her amniotic fluid.

If delivered now, the fetus will not be viable,

and the chance of survival is low.

PROM can cause a prolapsed umbilical cord,

a womb infection, and preterm labor pains, which can be dangerous.

It can also cause inflammation in the mother's body.

If prematurely born, the baby's underdeveloped lungs

could cause complications such as breathing difficulties.

Oh, boy. That's quite a chart.

She must be devastated now.

I know.

I hope she can let it go and pull herself together soon.

If it's dragged out, it'll only get harder for the mother.

The ambulances are so busy today.

Se-ho.

Do you know where you are now? Se-ho.

It's okay, Se-ho. You're in the hospital now. It's okay.

Did you call Pediatric Surgery?

Dr. Jang is out for procurement. It'll take her a while.

Oh, no. I think we should call Professor Ahn.

Professor Ahn must be in surgery now.

This is Professor Ahn's phone.

He's in surgery and can't come to the phone now.

This is Kang So-ye, a fellow in the ER.

I'm calling because Professor Ahn's patient just came in.

An eight-year-old traffic accident patient, male.

Mental state, drowsy. His BP is 80 over 60,

and his heart rate is 120. Based on the physical exam…

If there's a notable difference in the diameters,

-keep the stitches small. -Got it.

Everything else looks okay, but we've spotted a fluid collection.

An emergency transfusion…

We need to do surgery. Examine the patient quickly.

The intestinal anastomosis is done. Please seal up the rest.

Please call me when it's done.

His current vitals?

BP is 70 over 50, and his heart rate is 130.

Se-ho, does it hurt a lot?

I'm sorry, but can you book an OR for me?

Sure.

Sorry?

You want a different doctor?

I read a blog post about Professor Yang Seok-hyeong helping someone

who was 18 weeks pregnant keep her baby and give birth safely.

I'm really sorry.

I know it's rude of me to make such a request.

I'm fully aware that I shouldn't be asking you this,

but I feel no shame right now.

Please, help me.

Could you please ask Professor Yang Seok-hyeong just once?

I'm really sorry.

I understand the situation is bad…

but I can feel my baby moving.

So how could I give up?

-Who is it? -It's Chu Min-ha, Professor.

-Come in. -Thank you.

Sure, that's fine.

Let her have her way. I don't care.

Okay, then.

-Who is it? -It's me, Min-ha.

Come in.

I explained the situation to her several times,

but she's saying she still can't give up.

She said she can't give up when she can still feel her baby moving.

Is she, by any chance…

on the slimmer side?

Pardon?

Well, yes.

She conceived the baby after three rounds of IVF.

She practically begged me, saying she wants to try everything she can.

What did Professor Yeom say?

She said the decision is yours. She doesn't care.

Really?

-Then I'll examine the patient. -Really?

-Where is she now? -In the MFICU.

-I'll go after my outpatient appointments. -Okay.

Text me her name and registration number.

-Will do. -Okay.

Get going.

Have a good day.

YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

The situation looks pretty bad indeed.

The baby has a slim chance of survival.

But I wouldn't say there's zero chance,

so I'm going to trust that we still have hope and do my very best.

Thank you, Doctor.

For the baby, we'll use antibiotics and see how it goes.

At week 23, we'll consider injections that speed up lung development.

Thankfully, the baby's movements in the womb seem totally fine.

You're not showing any signs of infection, and you don't have a fever.

If you experience contractions,

we'll give you meds that can control that and see how it goes.

Okay.

-Thank you. -Then I'll see you tomorrow.

I bet you haven't had dinner yet. I got you some pastries.

I feel bad that I'm going home.

I feel like you work all the night shifts in OB-GYN.

Do you have a lot to do?

Are you organizing the charts? Is there a problem?

Look at this.

"At 19 weeks…"

Premature rupture of membranes at 19 weeks of pregnancy.

Lost most of her amniotic fluid, but fetal movements look good.

Breech presentation.

No signs of infection in the womb. No contractions detected.

Antibiotics will be given to prevent infection in the womb.

Contractions will be regulated should they occur.

If stable condition is maintained until Week 23,

the fetus will become viable. We will, then, consider betamethasone.

C-section will be performed if needed.

Looks like this patient may be able to keep her baby.

WATERY DISCHARGE

CAN'T KEEP THE BABY AS SHE HAS LOST MOST OF HER AMNIOTIC FLUID

I see. This case will be a little difficult.

Don't you notice anything strange?

I do.

You can't organize the charts like this.

There can't be two different patients under one profile.

It's the same person.

The same day, the exact same patient.

And the charts were written by the same person,

Chu Min-ha. Me.

The same patient.

The same day.

The same resident.

Just a different professor,

but the content of the chart totally changed in just a few hours.

Professor Ahn!

-Hello. -Yes, hello.

-Hello. -Hello.

Are you done for the day?

Yes, I'm going to head out soon.

Professor Ahn, I'm on duty tonight. Can you buy me a coffee?

You can use this to get a coffee.

Thank you.

You can give my ID badge to Gwang-hyeon.

I'll pick it up tomorrow morning.

Thank you.

EMERGENCY CENTER

It's cold. Come out when I call you.

I knew it. I'll be right there. Give me a minute.

I blow-dried my hair.

Stop raining, please.

Let's go. I'm hungry.

Okay.

All right, let's go.

-Aren't you hungry? -I am.

-What shall we have? -I'm good with anything.

Really? What should we eat to make everyone jealous?

What? No one can know about this!

Oh, right. We have to keep this a secret.

Professor Lee Ik-jun asked me twice today alone.

He asked me if we were seeing each other.

He said he feels like we're putting on an act.

He asked me to tell him the truth, swearing he wouldn't tell anyone.

I'll tell my friends sometime next week.

They'll keep their lips sealed and keep it under wraps.

I'm totally fine with it as long as you're okay with it.

So if there's anyone you want to tell, go ahead.

I don't care.

Okay, let me think about it. There's one person I want to tell.

Who? Dr. Chu Min-ha in OB-GYN?

Yes.

She stayed with you all night

when you went to the ER due to anaphylaxis.

You're both ARMYs.

Yes, how did you know?

I heard about it.

-I think Ik-jun told me. -I see.

Aren't you on duty tomorrow night?

I saw the schedule.

You're working all the night shifts this week except for today.

Are you going to be okay?

I can stay with you at night.

I mean, I'd be in my office working, obviously.

I can't help you with your tasks,

but I can stay up all night with you.

No, it's okay. I got it.

By the way, there's something I want to ask you.

What is it?

I have one personal question and one work-related question.

Well…

What's the personal one?

Can we go to the movies this weekend?

Of course, we can.

Now, the work-related question.

Well…

It's about Yeon-u.

The kid who died last fall.

Professor Lee Ji-yeong's patient.

Right.

Yeon-u's mother has been visiting the hospital

since about a month after Yeon-u died.

Sometimes, she'd intentionally book an appointment to visit us,

or she'd say she stopped by because she was in the area.

She visits the hospital often for no reason.

And she looks for me every time.

I get the feeling that she has something to say to me,

but I can't figure out what it could be.

Should I politely ask her what it's about?

Or should I just continue to feign ignorance like I'm doing now?

I don't know what to do.

She keeps visiting the hospital because she wants to talk about Yeon-u.

There's no other reason.

No one else remembers her child, you know.

The relatives must have only met Yeon-u once or twice.

And Yeon-u didn't go to day care, so there are no teachers.

Yeon-u practically lived in the hospital since birth,

so no one outside the hospital remembers the kid.

As a mother, she wants to talk about Yeon-u

but has no one to talk to…

except for the doctors and nurses who took care of him for a long time.

She's grateful to you for all your help,

but she also wants to talk to you about Yeon-u.

She might make you uncomfortable or avoid the subject altogether,

but next time you see her,

go talk to her first and buy her a cup of coffee or something.

No one keeps visiting forever.

She, too, will stop eventually.

Because we all have to forget and move on.

So just until then,

give her a warm welcome whenever you see her.

Okay.

Let's eat.

No.

Come in. I can see you, you know.

Thank you.

Thank you.

No problem.

Professor Yang, I guess it is winter indeed.

You're drinking hot coffee instead of an iced Americano today.

I guess…

you're not scared of me at all.

I am. I'm really scared of you.

So, what's up?

I'm tired. I want to go home.

I have two questions for you.

-Just ask one. -Just one?

Yes, just one question a day.

Only one a day. Then I'll answer it nicely without getting angry.

What should I do?

What if the two questions are combined into one?

No, you can't do that.

Okay.

Patient Kim Su-jeong…

The PROM patient who was admitted today.

What made you make such a decision in that situation?

No one can guarantee the treatment will be successful.

So why did you make that decision knowing the chances are slim?

I was so impressed.

Well, I just wanted to help the patient and her baby.

She felt her baby sooner because she's on the slimmer side.

The fact that she can feel her baby shows us the baby's will to live.

If both the mother and the baby are determined to get through this,

I think helping them is the best choice I can make in this situation

even though the chances are slim.

If…

something bad happens to the baby and the mother as well…

What if her family blames you for it?

Aren't you afraid of that?

I am.

I'm afraid too.

But if I think about that now, I won't be able to do anything.

"What is the best I can do now?"

That's what I try to focus on.

Get going. It's past midnight.

I'm sorry.

-Professor Yang. -Yeah?

It's past midnight.

I know. I'll go home soon.

No, it's not that.

It's a new day, so I can ask you another question.

May I ask you the question of the day?

Sure.

What's your question?

Well…

It's about Professor Yoon Seon-ju in Room 7009.

What's your relationship with his daughter?

Rumors say she's your girlfriend.

She's my ex-wife.

Professor Yoon Seon-ju's daughter is my ex-wife.

I see.

What are you doing tomorrow evening?

You don't have any surgeries or outpatient appointments booked,

and I'm not working the night shift.

I have my band practice right after work.

But Professor Chae is in Sokcho now.

Song-hwa is in Seoul now.

She got a new car, so she'll give us a ride…

Why am I telling you these things right now?

Good night.

We picked the perfect song for this rainy day.

Did you choose the song?

No.

I didn't know it'd rain.

Hey, everyone at the hospital's saying you're seeing someone.

I don't care.

Are you sure you didn't spread the rumor? It's so cold.

Why would I?

"She's his ex-wife, not girlfriend."

I'm debating whether or not I should tell everyone.

Jeong-won, are you and Gyeo-ul really not seeing each other?

Mind your own business.

Jun-wan's lovely dove is in the UK now. He's in a long-distance relationship.

Really? Where in the UK?

I think she's in London.

London?

Really? Where in the UK?

I think she's in London.

London?

Don't tell me…

Ask her if she knows Ik-sun.

My sister's in London now, you know.

Oh, right. I'll ask her.

Okay.

Make sure you ask her.

My sister's always the life of the party, so she may already know her.

-Okay, I'll ask her. -Good.

-Don't forget. -I won't.

-London is… -Is that her car?

Nice car!

All right!

Get in the car!

It's raining a lot.

Let's wait for that car to move. No need to rush.

We'll just watch the rain.

All right.

Did you pick up the car today?

Yesterday. I bought it with my own money.

Obviously. Who buys a car with someone else's money?

You're not the type to leave these things on, are you?

Yes! I am! My gosh!

I bought the car yesterday. Why take this off?

You have to take it off eventually.

Hey, the hazard lights. Let's move the car a little.

Seriously. Did you have to do that?

-Song-hwa. -Yes?

Why do I always have to sit here?

Jeez, he's at it again.

Hey, keep your eyes on the screen. Right here.

It shows you everything you need to see.

My gosh, you're right!

This has been around for a long time.

Lee Ik-jun, you sit here. Sit in the middle for a change.

No, the seat warmer is on now.

You never sit in the middle.

These guys have sat in the middle once at least.

But you, never.

For me, this is the third time in a row!

Jeez, that creepy jerk. Is he a pervert or a genius?

We'll go now.

Ahn Jeong-won, can we go now?

-Yes, ma'am. -Mom? What should I eat for dinner?

My friends and I will order in.

Should I have kalguksu or fried chicken?

How many chickens?

You guys drive me nuts.

I have to say, U-ju is much more mature than these guys.

My goodness.

Hello.

Oh, you're here. Just a moment, please.

-You didn't bring an umbrella? -No.

Because I was coming to pick this up.

Right, here.

Oh, no. I'm the only one here now.

Take it home and enjoy it with your family.

We already had one. We also had seaweed soup this morning.

We wished Yeon-u a happy birthday and had the cake together.

I got this for the Pediatric Surgery team.

Still, I can't finish this whole cake by myself.

I'll eat the whole thing.

-Hello, Dr. Jang. -Hello.

We'll accept the cake. I can finish it alone.

Well, okay.

Are you working the night shift again?

Gosh, you're always so busy.

I've gotten the hang of it, so I actually have more free time now.

Make sure to look after yourself.

You're busy. Sorry for taking up your time.

I'll be off, then.

Ma'am.

Would you like to have some coffee with me if you're free now?

It's my treat.

Sure.

I don't miss you anymore

I don't even want to see you

I'm even beginning to forget the fact That we were in love

Quietly

I don't understand

Why I feel this way

I cry when it rains

Just like the day I left you

Many years ago

I'm okay now

I've given up on love

Why am I

Crying like a fool?

I visit too often, don't I?

I'm sorry.

My husband always asks me why I keep coming here.

For some strange reason, I keep coming here.

Ma'am.

I can be very quiet and blunt.

I'm not good with words.

And I don't know what to say to console others.

But if you ever want to talk about or miss Yeon-u ,

feel free to visit me anytime.

Thank you.

I know as much about Yeon-u as you do.

You won't find anyone who understands you better.

Right.

Dr. Jang.

Whenever I come here,

people call me Yeon-u's mom.

I love hearing that.

Now that Yeon-u is no longer with us,

no one knows that I'm Yeon-u's mom.

But when I come here,

everyone calls me Yeon-u's mom.

People tell me

that I should put behind

such painful memories and move on,

but I don't want to…

lose Yeon-u so soon.

That poor thing lived such a short life.

I want to remember Yeon-u for as long as I can.

Oh, and…

Here.

I thought maybe I shouldn't give it to you because it's embarrassing,

but I still wanted to express my gratitude.

The faint memories That I vaguely remember now

They truly broke my heart

I hate you

But I still miss you

I'm okay now

I've given up on love

Why am I

Crying like a fool?

I know you won't come back to me

I hate myself For still being hung up on you

How much longer

Will my heart ache?

I'm okay now

I've given up on love

Why am I

Crying like a fool?

Why am I crying?

-We're off. -I'll drive you guys home.

I said, I can drive you home.

It's okay. We can take a cab.

Just drive Ik-jun home.

Yes, please!

Song-hwa, if you hook up your phone to your car,

you can listen to music loudly while driving. Try it.

I always listen to music when I drive.

That's called Bluetooth.

I know that.

Drive safely to Sokcho.

-Will do. Bye. -Bye.

Gosh, I'm getting sleepy.

-Drive safely. See you on the weekend. -Okay.

-Bye, Ik-jun. -Bye, enjoy.

He wants to watch New Journey to the West.

I know that much.

-Where's your car? -Right in front.

-Shall we? -Okay.

Should we put the radio on?

Put on that song.

The song we practiced earlier.

Sure.

Hey, what's up?

Is everything okay? I have surgery.

Do you have plans for this evening? Let's have dinner together.

I won't be out of the OR until around 8 p.m.

That's fine. I'll come to the hospital around eight.

All right, sure.

I'll see you later.

-Hey. -Where are you?

-The Operating Unit. -I'll call you back.

It's fine. They're still getting ready. I came down early.

I'm waiting in the lounge now. Where are you?

Me? I'm at Yulje.

What? Why are you back?

You wanted to take it easy and recuperate.

Why do you keep coming to Seoul? Cut down on work.

Just say no. Should I do it for you?

I heard you. I'll take care of it.

Ik-jun, when will you be done with the surgery?

Me? Around eight or nine? Why do you ask?

I'll come to your office around then.

Really? Okay. Then do what you need to do. I'll call you when I'm out.

Or, go home and get some rest. I'll stop by later.

No, I'll come to your office.

I can find things to do to kill time, so just do a good job with the surgery.

I always do a good job. All right, see you later.

All right.

We could have gone somewhere else.

The food here is good.

By the way, what's up? Is everything okay?

You keep asking if everything's okay.

Everything's fine. My father's doing well too.

Everything is fine.

Then why are you here?

I wanted to have dinner with you.

I came here to have dinner with you.

Let's…

meet up like this and have dinner together once in a while.

Can we do that?

Are you done?

Yes, I'm done. Where are you?

I'm hungry.

I'll come to you. Where are you now?

No, I'll come to you.

Stay in your office.

Take a seat.

It's okay.

I'll keep it short and get going.

I want to give you my answer.

Answer to what?

The question you asked me in Sokcho.

Don't tell her how you feel.

I don't think you should tell her how you feel about her.

You said you've known her for a long time.

If you tell her, things will get really awkward.

"I want us to stay best friends.

I want things to stay the way they are now."

She'll probably say that.

If I were you…

I wouldn't tell her.

Don't ask me for advice on stuff like this.

I'm off.

Subtitle translation by: Liya Choi

-Professor, did you hear? -About what?

They asked for the best neurosurgeon at our hospital.

And Song-hwa was chosen.

Send them over to me right away.

I had five phone calls about it. I need to work harder.

-Free this weekend? -Why?

-We need to talk. -Talk.

A professor's card? Is it yours?

Love's in the air in GS.

-Take it easy. -What's with the flowers?

-Professor. -You startled me.

-What's going on? -What?

I need answers when I'm curious.

Our goal is to get the baby out safely, so double-check everything.

Obstetrics.

Studying your textbooks again?

I can feel something running…

Her condition seems to have gotten worse since coming here.

I came all this way because of a recommendation.

That doubtful look in her eyes…

Gosh.

The way she looks at me screams that she doesn't trust me.

Countless people die because they can't find donors.

Nothing's going my way.

I don't think…

his heart can hold out any longer.
