(Episode 2)

- Hello? / - Hey, it's me.

What is it?

Are you playing a video game?

That gunfire sounds so real.

What? Game?

I don't have time for this. Hang up!

Wait! Wait!

I finally found out

where those documents originated from.

Where?

Taemin Cancer Center in Korea.

More specifically, their secure database.

- Help me move him. / - Okay.

Come here!

What will you do now?

(Seoul, 2015)

Where did you find it?

A personal homepage, but the IP address is not valid.

So if you track the code in the photos,

you can find the site where they originated from.

If you're lucky, even the person who posted them.

- Where is that? / - Drota Hospital in Kochenia.

- Kochenia? / - Yes.

The legendary secret door.

Looking at the fangs and nails, they were infected.

Look closely, and you can see

that someone took a piece of bloody clothes.

According to this, it says

in 1976, someone found the graves of the infected

which were hidden for 150 years,

and took a piece of the bloody clothing

as a sample.

And used that sample to create the virus.

Bingo.

If it's 1976, that's three years before you were born.

Considering the trial period,

it coincides with the time your family being infected.

So, the person who posted this is

the one who created the virus?

I don't know, but these documents and place of origin

may hold the secret to finding a cure.

(Saint Dome cancer hospital, Canada)

Hey.

When?

The bait worked quicker than I expected.

Professor!

Don't you know how to knock?

I'm sorry, but it was urgent.

What is so urgent? We need to go into surgery.

You see...

The surgery was rejected.

The hematoma group protested.

What?

What the...

- The new hospital director starts tomorrow? / - Yes.

It will get noisy.

The mighty Dr. Lee Jaeuk will be our hospital director.

Right, we're getting someone in our department too?

Yes. Park Jisang. He's a famous surgeon.

He was at MD Anderson, London and Munich hospitals,

and has conducted impressive researches.

He did a tour around world, didn't he?

Is there something wrong with him?

He volunteered during the Kochenia civil war

last year as well.

Give me a break.

Why did he go into that bloodbath?

Excuse me!

What is it?

Watch where you're going.

You'll get your employee ID number and

your ID card will start working tomorrow morning.

You can only go into your office today.

I am sorry for the delay.

That's fine.

I've prepared everything you asked for.

You've missed a few.

Really? What are they?

I need drinking water in my office at a pH of 8.

And please prepare my meals as requested.

I will not eat in the cafeteria.

Yes.

And get me a channel that plays Major League Baseball.

And season tickets to RG Twins.

Reserved seats on the home team side.

Yes, right away.

He is operable. I can operate.

With pancreatic cancer,

the tumor often enters the celiac artery.

It was confirmed in his CT scan.

Based on the CT scan, excision is totally possible.

Look carefully.

That is impossible.

Once you open him up, you'll probably see

it's further in the celiac artery than the CT shows.

We need to treat him with radiation and chemotherapy.

Treating him won't accomplish anything.

We have a procedure unique to our hospital.

If an error is discovered before surgery,

other departments in related fields may protest.

That must get frustrating for the surgeon.

The doctors like it since it's reasonable.

They find the Agora-style discussion interesting.

- Agora-style discussion? / - Yes.

The chairman has always encouraged discussions.

He must be very democratic.

My opinion has not changed.

We must start with radiation

and chemo to minimize risk.

Why can't you get it?

This may be a free discussion,

but please show some respect, Professor Yoo.

First, my apologies.

Even if, by chance, the tumor is larger than expected,

we can sublate in phases...

Sublate in phases? Give me a break.

Who are you?

I can see that.

Who are you to barge in and...

I was going to introduce him later, but I'll do it now.

He's the new chief of Team One.

He is Professor Park Jisang.

Team One?

The doctor with make-up like an L.A. girl.

It's Yoo Rita. Professor Yoo Rita.

What do you mean sublate in phases?

What in the world is that?

It's true that resection is impossible.

But is treatment with radiation and chemo correct?

That's not it, either. That's not even close.

Then what suggestion do you have?

An Appleby operation.

When resection is difficult because

the tumor entered the celiac artery,

many forfeit surgery because of its difficulty.

But you can get rid of it using the procedure.

Then there won't be any blood vessels into the liver.

Furthermore, there must be indications

that Appleby is appropriate...

Look hard. Open your eyes tenfold

and study it to the molecular level.

- The SMA... / - The SMA

connects to the hepatic artery as a detour.

So even if you remove the celiac artery,

there is a detour, so it's fine.

But an Appleby operation is too risky...

You've never done an Appleby operation, have you?

It's understandable that you're afraid.

If you're afraid, don't do anything.

I am not afraid of anything.

I'll do it my way.

You're the one who doesn't get it...

Please enter the code.

The safe has been unlocked. The door is open.

Professor Park Jisang is the chief of Team One?

You only said we were getting a new surgeon.

I apologize.

I was going to tell you after the conference.

Team One will be Professors Park Jisang and Yoo Rita.

It's just the two of them.

Excuse me?

And you'll manage Team Two

which will have Professor Gerard Kim and Lee Hoyong.

How can that young...

I'm sorry.

What is the difference between two teams?

Team One will also do liver transplants.

Professor Park is young but very skilled.

He is an authority on liver transplants.

Did you decide on this reorganization?

Of course not.

The chairman and the new hospital director decided it.

Please understand.

What? L.A.-girl make-up?

You are pale like having flour pasted on the face.

And did you lick ketchup? Why are your lips so red?

Who approved of the surgery?

- You startled me. / - I asked who authorized it.

Chief Woo Ilnam.

I thought you were on my team.

Please address me as "Professor Yoo."

He was my patient before the reorganization,

so he's under Chief Oh and my care.

- Regardless, this surgery is impossible. / - Hey.

Address me as "Chief Park," not "Hey."

Forget the surgery.

Why aren't you going in, Professor Yoo?

Doesn't this render the discussion irrelevant?

An error was clearly identified.

It wasn't an error, but a difference in perspective.

- Get to the operating room. / - Yes.

A difference in skill is a difference in perspective?

The chairman is here. Please stand up.

Mr. Chairman, he's our new...

My apologies.

I should have greeted you personally

but I had an urgent meeting.

Not at all.

Please, have a seat.

Vitals.

BP, 110 over 60. Heart rate, 80.

Saturation, 97 percent.

We will begin Kim Jeonggeun's tumor resection.

Scalpel.

Right, our department's spring party is coming up.

Let's go somewhere different. No barbecue.

Bovie.

She's arrogant at times,

but she's a skilled surgeon.

She completed her fellowship at CSU.

Others say she's a genius,

but I don't know about that.

She thinks she's the best, but she is still lacking.

Please teach her a lot.

This is my personal request.

I don't think I'd need to teach her myself.

Still, I'd like to ask this favor of you.

She is my one and only niece.

Seonggyun, research some venues.

- Yes. / - Gauze.

That's right. A costume party may be fun.

Forceps.

I'll begin the sublation now.

In phases. Slowly.

This seems safer than an Appleby operation.

- You really think that? / - Yes.

an Appleby operation is dangerous and

carries a risk of complications.

Yes, but that may be the last bit of hope

for the patient.

Sorry?

Having a skilled surgeon perform an Appleby operation

is the best possible option.

It's going well, isn't it?

She's about to

throw the grenade now.

Let's have a fun party.

First, we'll set a theme...

It looks like the celiac entry has ruptured!

What should we do?

Suction.

Professor Yoo.

Calm down and compress the wound.

Controlling it with an arterial suture won't...

I know, so keep quiet!

Compression.

Clamp.

Another one.

What is happening?

That's why she should have been careful.

Chief Park.

What do you think we should...

The safe has been unlocked.

It's nothing. I can stitch it up.

Suture.

Professor Yoo, as Chief Woo said,

you must not rush in this situation.

- Move your hand. / - Professor.

Move your hand.

Suture.

He's bleeding too much.

Pulse, 130. BP, 60 over 40.

It's still dropping.

Compression.

Hurry. Trans...

Transfusion. Hurry! Transfusion!

His BP is dropping! He won't make it!

Keep the transfusion going!

You're throwing water into a bottomless bowl.

Why are you here?

Move out of the way. I'll do it.

What? You can't do this to me.

He is my patient.

Don't say something cliche and back off.

If you're angry, you can just leave.

How dare you tell me to...

Let him take over.

Hand it over to him and come up here.

- Uncle! / - This is an O.R.

Address me properly.

This is our first operation together.

Nice to meet you.

Okay, we will begin an Appleby operation.

I guess you've only read about it.

Don't be nervous.

- Yes! / - Yes!

Let's turn off that annoying alarm first. Suction.

He's bleeding too much.

I wonder if he can find the celiac artery.

You see as much as you know.

As much as you know.

We will sublate near the celiac artery.

Bovie.

Right angle.

What is he planning to do?

He'll locate the celiac artery and

clamp it to slowly stop the bleeding.

But it won't be easy in that state.

Scalpel.

Uncle, how could you do that to...

We'll talk about that later. Come watch.

How could he get it under control so quickly?

He was lucky.

Maybe his ancestors are helping him.

Vitals.

Saturation, heart rate and BP are back to normal.

We'll use the clamp to sever the celiac artery. Ready?

I'm fine. I'm not sweating.

Suture.

Out.

Cut.

We will now remove the tumor.

Bovie.

Control the bleeding and finish up.

You can do it without me, right?

- Good work, Sir. / - Good work, Sir.

Gosh! I think I'm going to die.

What should I do? Should I just die?

Calm yourself down.

Where did such a thing roll in from?

You can't call him "a thing".

You read many of Professor Park's papers and theses.

I'll burn each and every one today.

And you...

Couldn't you support me during the discussion?

How could I when my marksman was there?

And did you hear how he talks?

His rudeness pierces the heavens.

But don't you think he's kind of sexy?

What?

Honestly, I've never seen an operation like that.

And he's pretty good-looking.

You call that good-looking?

Isn't that like the top 0.1 percent?

But how old is he?

I don't know. Maybe 37 or 38.

Really? He looks so young.

He looks like he's in his early 20s.

He must have a great anti-aging regimen.

Or was he born with it?

Hey, he disgraced your friend. How could you...

Yoo Rita.

You must have been so upset earlier.

- Mind your own business. / - "Mind your own business?"

Business? Do I have my own business?

Well, you are the only business I care about.

I got us a table at a famous French restaurant for you.

Gerard Bonjacques is supposed to be the best.

His foie gras is...

You can eat as much of that liver as you want.

Rita?

Rita!

He's fine. No need to check on him.

Why are you speaking so casually with me?

Isn't that the Korean culture?

Superiors speak casually to people under them.

You're a quick learner.

And that patient chart is mine.

Have it if you need it.

Stop shaking and come to my office.

How dare he order me around?

Professor.

I need to give an enema, so please step out.

Yes, get it out. It's bad if it's plugged up.

How are you so arrogant after botching up that surgery?

I did nothing wrong.

If you had left me alone, it would have ended well.

There is no "process" in history or surgery.

I get it.

Punish me or humiliate me. Do whatever you want.

I'll let it slide this time.

Why?

You're afraid of the consequences?

You've heard of special pardons, right?

When a crime is specially forgiven.

Like an Independence Day Special Pardon.

I'll be my Inauguration Special Pardon to

excuse the mistake you made today.

I'm so grateful I can cry. It's totally awesome.

And one more thing.

These were a 40-piece limited edition from Zurich.

I waited in line for two hours to get them.

But the frame is cracked now thanks to you.

You want me to reimburse you? Fine. How much were they?

I don't need money.

Get me a replacement. The exact same pair.

- What? / - I can't go to Zurich again now, can I?

Fine, I'll get you the exact same pair.

And one last thing.

Others may walk on eggshells around you,

but I won't.

Look... I mean, Chief Park.

I never abused my position as the chairman's niece.

Team One's evaluation sheet.

If you're rude at discussions or operations again,

your evaluation sheet will be filled up.

Completely.

I don't care. Do what you want.

I'll stomp on you good soon. You'll see.

Ouch. That hurts.

Happy birthday, Luuvy.

Your master must be home.

Temperature, 25.4. Normal.

BP, 102 over 49. Normal.

Pulse, 21. Normal.

I've made your bed.

I'm exhausted from unpacking.

Did you find out who posted about that graveyard?

Well, we hit a glitch.

A glitch?

Taemin Cancer Center suddenly heightened

security for their secure database this morning.

I can't break through. It's super tough.

Are they building a nuclear weapon?

I heard chiefs have access to the secure database?

Yes.

I get my employee ID and access in the morning.

Okay. I'll have to go in as soon as you gain access.

You must be tired from your trip.

I'll take you to your residence.

Thank you.

But

has Professor Park Jisang arrived?

He made quite an impression on his first day.

He is even more skilled than I had heard.

This is just the beginning.

You'll see many more incredible things later on.

But how did you get Dr. Park to come to our hospital?

It's not like you know each other.

I pique his interest.

There is no better motivation.

May I ask how you pique his interest?

It wasn't anything medical, but it was about himself.

I have a gift for you.

Come in, Luuvy.

I built this secretly for the past two years.

It's a robot.

His name is Luuvy. Taken from "love".

Luuvy. Greet your master, Luuvy.

Okie-dokie, Mackintosh.

What a great night. Nice to meet you, Master.

Why is a robot talking like that?

I modeled it after my speech.

Most robots sound so stiff. It's not fun.

From now on, Luuvy will check on your health.

Why did you make that? What a waste of time.

What do you mean why? I made it for you.

Actually, Luuvy is all about love.

He has 20,000 videos, voice files and music about love,

and 8,000 trivia.

He'll answer any question about love.

Hey. You know love and I don't mix.

It isn't good for my health either.

I don't mean the dopamine-overdose type of love.

I mean the agape love. You need that.

You're too dry.

I don't need it, so you play with it.

And Luuvy can read people's expressions

and guess what they're feeling.

Father, you look happy.

Your girlfriend's parents must be out of town.

Father? Give me a break.

Father, you look sad.

Your girlfriend must have a guy over in her house.

See that? Watch.

Luuvy, what should I say when I meet a girl I like?

Can you not go home tonight?

Can you not go home tonight?

That's a bit too aggressive.

Something else.

Be mine. What color underwear are you wearing?

Kiss, kiss.

No, something milder.

Level one. Something romantic.

Well done. You and your perverted robot.

Get out, both of you.

You have such a temper.

Are you here?

Go to your residence and get some rest.

What? Inauguration Special Pardon?

What the...

Jisang, are you cooking and eating?

What does it taste like? It isn't what mommy made.

Look here. Look here. Look at mommy.

Wink.

Kiss, kiss.

Eat up. I'm going to catch you.

If mommy catches you, I'll kiss you 500,000 times!

You got on a horse? I'll still get you.

I'll come after you.

- What are you doing, Jisang? / - Sun.

- Are you drawing the sun? / - Yes.

Wow, what a pretty sun.

Ouch. It's so hot.

Show mommy the pretty sun.

I can't wait.

Ta-da! Wow, it's so pretty.

Do you have a date today?

Come on, put that away.

What? You look handsome.

You're so handsome. Stop that. I'm going to film you.

Stop it.

If you're watching this,

that means something very bad has happened.

I wish you would never need to watch this.

But if you are,

listen to what I'm about to say.

You are not a monster. You were infected.

You are infected with a virus called the VBT-01 virus.

Of course, your dad and I were both infected,

so you were born infected.

Your dad felt bad until the moment he passed away.

He felt so bad...

The reason we had to live on the run is

because of others who are infected.

They wanted to use that virus for evil and

your dad and I opposed it.

We escaped and tried to find a cure,

but we failed.

That's when they found us and

I escaped with you.

Your dad

passed away while

protecting us.

You want to know who killed your dad, don't you?

I'm sorry, but I won't tell you.

If I do, you'd run right over to them.

But then something horrible will happen to you, too.

You need to grow stronger.

Once you get strong enough to

face off against them,

you can find out who they are on your own.

Either they'll come to you, or you'll go to them.

So, for now,

run away as far as you possibly can.

Your abilities are endless.

Just like you used those abilities to save that child,

you will save yourself.

And one day, you'll save many people.

Jisang.

You will do it for sure,

because you're mom and dad's son.

I'm sorry...

I can't be with you.

I love you, my dear son.

Park Jisang.

The safe has been unlocked.

The safe is open.

The safe has been locked.

Good morning, Master.

Hey! Lower the volume! It's so loud!

You are hungry.

You must eat for your brain to function.

The brain uses a quarter of a human's caloric intake.

Shut this thing up, Hyeonu!

Jisang.

I still have some of my medicine left.

You'll have many more surgeries to perform

so I made a new one with a stronger dosage of atesine.

See you later.

Have a wonderful day, Master.

(Congratulations to Professor Lee Jaeuk on becoming director)

Chief Park.

They are the same ones, right?

The case is made of same Amazonian crocodile leather.

Where did you get them?

At a Smart Optical store out front.

A Smart...

Are these imitations?

Look at the certificate of authenticity in the case.

Zurich? Limited edition my foot.

A Smart...

(Search will be unavailable until 4 p.m.)

(Resident interviews begin today at 10)

If I were to become a resident here,

I would like to share everything I learned at Stanford

here, in my father's country.

And I know I'll become the top surgeon

here at this hospital.

Your grades, research results,

and even your performance assessment are fantastic.

Thank you.

Next.

- Seongwon University Hospital? / - Yes.

Excuse me.

Do you speak English?

I'm sorry, but I don't speak English very well.

Min Gayeon.

Seongwon may be the best in the nation,

but not here, at Taemin Cancer Center.

Yes, I know that.

Why did you apply here?

My mother

passed away in this hospital.

I was 10. She had a stage-four ovarian cancer

and other hospitals gave her two months to live.

But she was treated here and lived eight more months.

During the eight months we gained,

I spent many precious moments with my mother.

That's when I decided to become a doctor.

Even if there's no hope,

I want to let patients live a little longer.

It is a touching story,

but you can't become a surgeon here based on that.

Do you have anything more convincing...

Start today.

- Excuse me? / - Don't make me repeat myself.

Sir, we all must agree...

I'm putting her in my team. Why do I need a consensus?

- That's the last of it, right? / - You can't do this.

I'm putting her in my team. What's the problem?

- Chief Park! / - Wait...

Professor.

It's an honor to meet you in person.

I studied with all of your books.

Don't try to force emotions like that again.

- Sorry? / - You think you're filming a medical drama?

No, I was being honest.

So why did you choose me?

You look like you don't sleep.

People who look like you don't need much sleep.

I'm a new chief here.

I know. We've heard a lot about you.

I'm the head nurse, Lee Yongju.

I'm Nurse Lee Hyeyeong.

I'm Nurse Choi Dasom.

You can just tell me your titles.

It's not like we'll ever call each other by name.

We have a legendary jerk.

Get back to work.

I think medical treatments should be like a miniskirt.

Treatment time should be short but cover what it must.

But it can't be too short,

or what must be hidden will be seen.

Before being the hospital director, I am a surgeon.

I'm not a management specialist.

So,

I plan to invest in the facilities

as long as we avoid bankruptcy.

The chairman looks troubled.

The chairman

established a free treatment ward for society

providing free medical care for people without family,

orphans, and disadvantaged people.

I genuinely respect you, Mr. Chairman.

I think that calls for applause.

At this hospital which serves society, I'll devote

my all to accomplish things that no other hospital

in the world could accomplished.

I will also fulfill all of my duties as a surgeon.

Thank you.

I thought he wasn't coming.

He needs the new director to see him.

He acts high and mighty but he's no better.

Professor Park Jisang?

I recognized you from afar.

It's an honor to have you here.

It's an honor for me to meet someone

who covered the Time Magazine.

You risked your life to serve in Kochenia.

I'm embarrassed.

I did it because I wanted to.

I heard we have a meeting for a discussion later.

I'll see you then.

Lee Hyeongtaek's hepatectomy is

a major hepatectomy, so we'll go in from the abdomen.

He has a tumor in this entire section, so...

He needs a quick surgery.

He is 72 years old and

is in poor health.

A long operation may endanger the patient.

Then we'll be quick...

Chief Park Jisang?

Yes.

You hold the record for

the shortest major hepatectomy procedure, correct?

If it could be that quick,

it should be safe for the patient.

This is my personal suggestion,

but what if Chief Park Jisang performs this surgery?

But he is Chief Woo's patient,

and I don't think the result would be very different.

It's not just about the duration.

Chief Park is known to operate with minimal bleeding.

A patient's cure should take priority over

our convenience.

Please, would you, Chief Park?

Sure.

Check on the patient and operate right away.

I need to stop by my office first.

I'm sorry if I've offended you.

I thought only of what's best for the patient.

Not to be presumptuous,

but our department has a hierarchy.

The previous director respected that.

Is hierarchy

above a patient's well-being and life?

- Pardon? / - Aren't we standing in

a hospital right now?

If you feel the same as I do,

please accept my suggestion gladly.

That way, I'll feel better.

(You do not have the appropriate permissions)

(You do not have the appropriate permissions)

- Hello. / - We're ready for the surgery.

I'll be right there.

We will begin the hepatectomy.

Anesthesia complete.

BP, 130 over 70. Heart rate, 90.

Saturation, 99 percent.

Scalpel.

Not insufficient atesine. It was a different drug!

That's how the world is,

but in surgery, success takes precedence.

The bigger problem is someone knew you took this drug,

and who you are.

We are not monsters or demons.

We're limitless beings.

Will Chief Park Jisang be coming, too?

He's not a part of this,

and he must not know of it.

Did you cause trouble again?

You think I always cause trouble?

That's what Park Jisang needs the most right now.
