HOSPITAL PLAYLIST 2

It's me, Jae-hak.

-Hey, go ahead. -Bae Jun-seong's pulmonary edema is severe

and he can't urinate. He's on a ventilator now.

Really? What's his urine output?

The last time we checked, it was only 10cc.

-I'm coming. -When do you think you'll get here?

Sorry to rush you, but we need you.

See you in a minute.

Okay.

YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

Thank you.

No problem.

What are you doing here?

Did this patient leave?

Ik-jun's sister? Do you know her?

Yes. Did she leave?

She left earlier. The IV was done a while ago.

I guess your families are super close too.

My fever's gone,

and I feel much better, so I'm heading home now.

I'll call you, Jun-wan.

But not for a while because I'll be busy with my training.

I'll make sure I'll call you soon though.

I wanted to text you as you're probably busy now.

APRIL 18, SUNDAY

HOSPITAL PLAYLIST 2

It's nice to take a quick break like this.

Look at us chilling and enjoying this ice cream.

Get this. I'm even going out for dinner with my wife later.

We're busy with surgeries but don't have any primary care patients.

And the number of emergency calls has dropped.

With a schedule like this, I actually have time to do things.

I can take half of the weekend off.

You guys are saying that because you have no idea.

Just wait and see. It'll only get worse.

Come to think of it, they're amazing.

They must be busy with work, but they still have band practice.

They still do it, right?

Yes. They're practicing again after work today.

None of them is on duty for once,

so they'll have dinner together and practice.

How do you know so much?

Of course, I should know this much. You didn't know?

Come on. Why should I know those things?

They're taking Professor Chae's car.

They'll be rushed, so they'll pick up dinner on the way.

But why did they name their band Gongnyong Ridge?

I'm curious too.

They started as a hiking club.

Jeong-won loves hiking and likes the Dinosaur Ridge.

He wanted to take them there,

hence the name. "Gongnyong" as in "Dinosaur."

I heard that trail is very tough.

Yes. That's why they still haven't gone there.

They always just go to the entrance and come back after taking pictures.

Professor Chae is going to Mount Seorak next month.

Yes. Not past the entrance though.

It's a hiking club.

They're not a band.

They just eat bibimbap together.

I said I'm not going to go there. Don't even think about it.

My eyes get dry so easily. I can't go hiking!

Mountains should be admired, not climbed.

I'm not going. Never!

But we named our band "Gongnyong Ridge."

Shouldn't we go at least once?

-No. -No.

Let's just go up to the Biseondae Peak, then.

Even kids go there.

We're not dumb.

Don't you dare suggest trails that only pros take.

Just give up already.

Seriously, I swear. That trail is super easy.

My sister went there in her cancan skirt.

Look it up!

He doesn't know how to look things up on the Internet.

Don't offend Jun-wan.

"Biseondae Peak"?

Even the name sounds scary.

Oh, there she is.

I'm hungry! Get in, quick.

What? What is it?

-What are you doing? Hey! -Let's just go!

-Hey! -Come on. Let's go.

-No! Hold on. -Just get in.

I don't want to sit in the middle.

Hey, you go ahead.

-You get in first-- -Hey, seriously!

Do we have enough time? It'll be almost 9 p.m. after dinner.

Then we won't be done until 11 p.m.

We'll pick up dinner at the drive-through on the way.

What are we getting?

Burgers.

We'll be there in seven minutes.

Tell me what you guys want.

-Ik-jun. -What was the name of the burger?

-The new one. -I know what I want!

-I want… -I want the 1955 Burger.

Me too! The 1955 Burger.

-Don't copy me. -I'm getting the combo.

-I want a VS too. -Me too.

And a bulgogi burger combo.

-What's "VS"? -Vanilla shake.

-I want an SS! -How clever.

And one Spicy Shanghai Burger combo with large fries.

-I want large fries too. -Me too!

-What about chicken nuggets? -Of course! Order 30.

Order me an extra burger on top of my double bulgogi.

-What about you? -No! I want an egg bulgogi burger.

What are you getting, Song-hwa?

-Song-hwa-- -Hey!

I don't want to hear you guys say another word.

I see the sign now. I'll give you a minute.

Figure out what you want. Then take turns and tell me exactly what you want.

No changes are allowed. Don't babble away, okay?

-Yes, ma'am. -Yes, ma'am.

Hello, what would you like to order?

Hello, it'll be a big order. I'm sorry. I'll speak slowly.

Don't worry. It's okay.

We'd like three 1955 Burger combos,

one Spicy Shanghai Burger combo, and one egg bulgogi combo.

All with large French fries.

Can we get Sprite instead of Coke for just one of the combos?

Sure. Anything else?

We'd also like two vanilla shakes and one strawberry shake.

And two chicken mozzarella burgers. Just the burger, not the combo.

We'd also like five of the six-piece nuggets. That's it.

Let me make sure I got everything. Three large combos…

That took me back to our resident days,

when she used to notify the others. My gosh.

Do you know what's crazier?

Jeong-won's been holding the credit card like that for five minutes.

That's a huge improvement.

He used to pull out the card in the parking lot at Yulje.

Be quiet.

-Yes, ma'am. -Yes, ma'am.

All right.

Did we order seven burgers?

Yes. The piggies ordered two burgers each.

You know it's my birthday next month, right? It's very soon.

Of course, we remember. It's pretty close to Song-hwa's birthday.

-Is it a weekday? -Yes.

Can we get together on the weekend prior? I'm busy on weekdays.

Sure, no problem. I prefer that too.

But what about it? Do you also have a song you want to sing?

Yes, I do.

I'll choose the song because it's my birthday.

Practice hard, okay?

-Which song is it? -What's the title?

It's my life

-Hey! -We can't play that.

No way.

Andrea. You're on board, right? I know you'll do it.

Well, I think…

I don't think it's a terrible idea.

-Yes! -Hey!

Hey, let's use your phone.

-For what? -The reservation.

Right, sure.

Jeong-won, I washed them twice and put them in a strainer.

Good job. Take a seat.

Okay.

-Have we booked a place to stay? -We're doing it now.

Jun-wan, you can book accommodation right away using your phone like this.

No need to physically go to a travel agency.

Really?

Just like booking those bus tickets?

Well, I guess?

Hurry up. It's only a few days away.

-Should I do it? -No, I got it.

-Are we having a barbecue? -Of course!

Let's book a guesthouse or a B&B.

Yes. We need at least two rooms and two bathrooms.

Sure thing. I'll find the most perfect place.

HOTEL, SOKCHO

Okay! This is nice. By the entrance to Mount Seorak.

Nice. Let's book it. It's by the entrance.

But it says it's 7km away from Mount Seorak.

Really?

It is in front of the entrance, but it's 7km away from the mountain.

It's written right here.

I appreciate the honesty. Let's book it.

Check the reviews.

It's good.

FACILITIES ARE OLD BUT WELL-KEPT AND CLEAN

I'll book it, then.

Okay.

By the way, what are they doing?

This one's nice.

Shopping for leather pants.

Check the cart. I bet there's a ton of stuff there.

Jun-wan, I'm not talking about an actual shopping cart.

I meant the virtual one.

You prick.

YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

Yes. She's doing much better now.

I visited her last weekend.

Why don't you call her now if you're that worried?

Hey, I'm busy now. I have to go.

All right.

-Sorry. -It's okay.

My siblings have been calling me nonstop since my mom's health scare.

They're worried but can't look after her now,

so they keep calling and bombarding me with questions.

Why did they enter the convent, then?

How is your mother doing?

She's doing much better now.

-She can go out alone now. -I see. I'm glad to hear that.

Isn't your brother's wedding just around the corner?

Yes, it's next month.

Ask him if he needs anything.

Maybe some home appliances.

I want to get him a nice gift.

I'm sure they already have everything.

There must be a thing or two they still need.

I have surgery. You're meeting up with Dr. Chu?

Yes.

Nice, that's great. Make sure you ask Ga-eul, okay?

Okay.

See you later.

So your friend has agreed to be your donor?

-Yes. -Yes.

I see, okay. Well…

Mr. Kang Chan-dong, you have liver cirrhosis

on top of your cancer recurrence. Your liver is barely functioning,

so a liver transplant is the best solution now.

I'm very glad that your friend mustered up the courage to do this for you.

It truly is great news, but…

In this case, since the donor is not your family,

you'll have to go through a lengthy screening process

to rule out any financial incentives or other ulterior motives.

Hospitals used to handle it at their own discretion,

but to prevent illegal activities such as organ trafficking,

a governmental organization called KONOS manages this process now.

We'll have to prepare all the materials they need

to get your application approved.

I really am his friend, Doctor.

Of course, I believe you.

But you need to go through this process and get it approved to be his donor.

How long will it take though? He's on the verge of death.

Our coordinator will go through the details with you.

But I'm just wondering…

How do we prove

that we're close friends?

Where are you going?

-To see Hwang Du-na. -At the physical therapy room?

Yes. Last time I saw her, she still couldn't walk well

and was struggling to get words out.

But it's been a while, so I want to check in on her

and also talk to Professor Jang.

Professor Chae! Hello.

Hello.

This must be hard for you.

No, it's okay.

Du-na is doing much better now.

She can sit down and stand up on her own now.

Really?

She's relying on a walking cane, but it's still a huge improvement.

She couldn't even stand up a month ago.

Has she been practicing speaking in her room?

Yes. I keep talking to her to help her practice.

That's great. Then I'll go see how Du-na is doing.

Sure.

She's doing much better compared to the last time I saw her.

She couldn't walk or even stand up on her own.

Her right leg is recovering fairly quickly,

but the fine motor skills of her right hand aren't back yet.

And language skills are the slowest to recover.

Right.

That said, we're going to focus on speech therapy from now on.

Okay.

I'm going to count from one.

One, two.

Three.

Four.

Let's step out for some fresh air.

So you still have one more chance?

But I think you'll succeed this time.

Just go for it.

It's the last chance I have.

I really need to succeed this time.

And since this is my last chance, I don't want to do it here

looking like this.

I want to look decent and presentable when I confess my feelings.

I really do.

Hold on. What happened to you today?

I look like a mess, don't I?

Yes.

I had two night shifts in a row.

I had to wash my hair for the first time in two days but had no shampoo.

So I used the soap I found by the cleaning supply cabinet,

and my hair now has a life of its own.

The cleansing power was something else.

I really don't want to run into Professor Yang today.

Starting this week, it's Professor Yeom Se-hee's turn anyway,

so if I'm lucky,

I may not bump into him at all today.

Yes.

Hello.

Hello.

Hey, Jang Gyeo-ul!

-Hi, Chuchu. -Hello.

-Have you eaten yet? -Yes.

I had lunch with Professor Ahn.

Good. What about you, Dr. Chu?

I ate with my juniors.

Why didn't you have lunch with Chuchu?

I ate with you because you wanted to have lunch with me.

We'll let you get back to your conversation. See you.

Okay, see you.

Gyeo-ul, let's go to the convenience store.

What do you need?

Shampoo.

His friend wants to donate his liver?

That's unheard of.

It's rare but does happen from time to time.

He has cirrhosis in addition to his liver cancer recurrence.

He has no children.

His wife got the test done but can't do it

due to her cardiovascular condition.

He has one brother,

but he's a hepatitis B carrier, so he can't do it either.

So knowing none of his family members can be a living donor for him,

both he and I were very worried.

But he brought his friend

to his appointment today and said he'd do it for him.

Do you think the donor is perhaps being forced to do it?

No, not at all.

I had a talk with the donor.

He said that wasn't the case at all.

They grew up together and are best friends.

They still need to go through the screening process,

but I think

they really are best friends.

Won't the process be more complicated since they're not family?

Yes, totally. It'll be very difficult.

Some donors die during the surgery.

In Korea, the surgery is considered safe for donors,

but there have been cases abroad where the donor died.

In some cases, the remaining liver fails to function

even if the donor had no prior health conditions,

so the donor also ends up receiving a liver transplant.

That gives you an idea of how difficult and risky the surgery is.

Would you still like to be a living donor?

Yes, I want to. If I don't, he'll die.

Is it very risky?

I'm just telling you what the possible risks are.

Our professors always pay extra attention to the donor surgery

to make sure it's safe.

And most living donors are able to go back

to their normal daily activities after the surgery.

But I can't say you'll feel exactly the same as you did before the surgery.

You may feel some discomfort.

Okay. I still want to do it.

Hey.

Hey.

What?

You broke it off?

Your wedding is next month,

and you broke off the engagement?

It wasn't me.

She broke it off.

The thing is, I saw it coming.

When I told her about our family,

she said she didn't care

but seemed pretty shocked.

I think she told her parents about it last week.

I mean, she had to.

With the wedding coming up so soon, they obviously wanted to know

why her future father-in-law wouldn't be attending.

They probably grilled her about it.

So she told them everything.

That her future father-in-law hit her future mother-in-law

to the point that she ended up with a broken nose, a rib fracture,

and a ruptured eardrum.

And that

he's in jail now.

Honestly, I get it.

Who'd be okay with that?

I'd disapprove of it too.

It's actually a relief.

I really saw this coming.

Things haven't been that great between us

since I told her about Dad.

The way she was looking at me…

I felt like she was wondering

if I was like Dad too.

I guess I'm just insecure.

I'm such a loser.

Maybe I shouldn't have told her.

I should have just kept it from her.

You had to tell her.

She was bound to find out anyway.

Ga-eul.

I'm sorry.

I feel bad that there's nothing I can do.

Why are you sorry?

I'm okay. Like I said, I saw it coming.

I feel much better now that I've told you.

Well, I'll figure out how to handle the situation.

I'll just tell Mom that we had a big fight.

I'll tell her I got sick of Min-jin

and called off the wedding.

Just keep that in mind.

Okay, I'm sorry.

Why do you keep saying sorry?

I know how busy you are at work,

and you barely have time to sleep because you've been looking after Mom.

I'm sorry.

I'll try to take better care of Mom too.

When did you grow up so much?

I'll be promoted to assistant manager soon. I'm an adult.

Ga-eul.

I can't think about anything else but Mom now.

I knew about it.

When Mom called me once in a while,

I could tell right away from her voice.

But I ignored it.

"That can't be. I'm worried for nothing."

I turned a blind eye to it.

I avoided dealing with her situation.

I feel so bad for doing that to Mom.

It must have been like hell, but I left her alone in that situation.

I feel so terrible.

I can't forgive myself for it.

Ga-eul.

I know that you're really hurt too,

but I'm only going to think about Mom for now.

I'm sorry.

Hurry up, Jong-su. The noodles will swell up.

Wait!

Let me put this on top.

All right.

There.

Here you go.

Let's see how good you are, Mr. Ju.

The color looks good.

Hey.

It's so delicious.

Isn't it great? I'm so surprised.

Jong-su. I mean, Mr. Ju.

It's so good.

My gosh. Who knew you were such a good cook?

-You should try it too, Jong-su. -Okay.

Did you make the sauce too? You didn't buy it?

I followed Mr. Paik's recipe.

No wonder it's so good.

Still, it's not easy to make it this tasty.

You have the talent, Mr. Ju.

What will you make next?

Next time, I'll make rice topped with fried eggplant.

Really?

Rosa, can I come over again next week?

Of course. Come over every weekend.

Don't stay home alone and order in.

Come and eat with us every weekend.

Cook for us every weekend. Please?

You're such a good cook.

Sure, I'd love to. It'll make me happy.

I had a big fight with my eldest son yesterday,

so I've been depressed all day.

But cooking the noodles and making this sauce

helped me get it off my mind for a moment.

What happened? You were excited that he was returning to Korea.

He's opening a clinic with his friends.

He said they'll co-own the clinic.

And he outright asked for money.

Not just to help out.

He demanded again that I give him the money he'll inherit down the road.

I was speechless.

I said no right away

but couldn't sleep all night.

It made me angry

and sad.

Again? Gosh, that must have really hurt your feelings.

I'd rather have him stay there and never move back.

I'd feel more at ease if he and his family stayed in the US.

But he's your son. It'd be better to keep him close and see him often.

So your son is coming back, while Seok-hyeong might be leaving soon.

What do you mean?

What should I do, Rosa?

Seok-hyeong might have to move to the US.

Jeong-won didn't say that.

I don't think he has told his friends yet.

He brought it up at our dinner last night.

There's a great training opportunity in the US, so he applied for it.

-He said he'll most likely get it. -My goodness.

But I can't live without Seok-hyeong.

We don't live together,

but we have a meal together every weekend. It's my only joy in life.

What should I do? Is there anything I can do to make him stay?

I'm not sure.

Once he sets his mind on something, he does it.

YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

Who are you going to have lunch with today?

With my friends, probably. Why?

Oh, okay.

Join us. You know them too.

I have plans for lunch.

My wife is stopping by to see her friend,

so I'll have lunch with her.

Then why did you ask me?

I was going to ask you to join us if you were going to eat alone.

Jeez, mind your own business.

-You're the only person. Do you know that? -What do you mean?

You're the only person who didn't ask me why we don't have children.

Why should I be curious?

Exactly.

I don't even have time to deal with my problems.

To each their own. Why should I care?

My wife and I are the same age.

We got married after dating for over three years.

I was still in school,

so we had to live off her single income and also send money to our parents,

which was very tough.

So at the beginning, we said we'd hold off on having kids.

Then about five years into the marriage,

we decided to have a baby because we both love kids.

But once we made up our mind, we struggled to conceive.

We tried so hard.

It was very stressful for my wife.

Then last year,

on her 40th birthday, she announced that she decided…

that she won't have a baby.

She said she was exhausted physically and mentally.

She told me she wanted to live a fun life with me, just the two of us.

I agreed right away.

I always wanted a kid,

but I'd hate to see my wife

stressed out.

Professor, do you know what I enjoy the most?

I'm supposed to be curious, right?

Having a beer at home with my wife after work and chatting with her.

I'd complain about my co-workers and talk about the surgeries I did.

We'd talk about her co-workers

while bad-mouthing our families together.

We talk about all sorts of stuff.

It'd be nice to have a kid,

but I also enjoy this life with my wife who's like my best friend.

When I'm with her,

I feel so comfortable, and we have so much fun together.

I'm sorry. I totally babbled away.

I envy you.

I envy you two.

We have the results from the first test.

Based on the results, you are a good match.

Then can we proceed with the surgery?

No. There are many things we need from you.

But first, I want to let you know

that my job is to suspect your motives.

I understand you two are close friends,

but I'm in the position where I must suspect your motives.

I hope you understand.

Sure.

I'm going to ask you for many different documents.

Once you see the list, you'll probably think,

"Why must you ask for documents that we can't get?"

But KONOS needs all those documents.

Here's a list of documents we need from you within a week.

LIST OF REQUIRED DOCUMENTS

How many do you have?

Twelve.

My gosh. I have six.

And I heard you've been friends since high school.

-Yes. -Yes.

Then in addition to your graduation certificates,

we'll also need proof that you were actually close even back then.

We'll need a photo of you together back in your high school days.

I'm not sure if we've kept…

our old photos.

And if you've been friends for 30 years since high school,

I'm sure you attended each other's wedding and other celebratory occasions.

Yes.

We need photos or videos that can prove your attendance.

Some may suspect

that you reconnected recently because of this

even if you can prove that you two knew each other back in high school.

So we'll need it as evidence to rule out such suspicion.

I see. But I didn't have anyone film my wedding.

Then just submit photos from your wedding.

I got married just a few years ago, so I have it recorded on video.

I can bring it.

Thank you. Please check that you have the correct amount.

Don't tell me you only took out 10,000 won.

No. I took out 100,000 won.

Why are you trying to pick a fight with me again?

Why do you need cash? 10,000-won bills at that.

-We have a team dinner this evening. -Right, we do.

We'll be out until late, so it's for the residents' taxi rides.

Jeong-won.

-Isn't it exhausting being you? -No, not at all.

Isn't your head about to explode because of all your thoughts?

No.

I do think a lot, but my thoughts are compartmentalized in an organized manner.

Why? What are you trying to say?

Nothing. I was going to make fun of you but gave up

because you're so serious.

Thanks.

"Withholding tax"?

Yes. We need to know your total income for the previous year.

If you've filed your income taxes, we need documents that prove it.

If you're an employee, you can submit your statement of earnings.

It'll help if I make more than Chan-dong does, right?

Yes. It'll certainly reduce the chance of misunderstandings.

Hey, how much do you make?

Gosh, my income…

I wanted to keep it from this chump until the day I die.

Why? Do you not make that much?

Clearly, I make more than you do.

My income is higher, so don't worry.

Last year, my property taxes alone came to ten million won.

I make about 200 million won a year.

Hey.

Pay for all my meals.

Whatever.

-What's wrong? -My stomach's been upset since last night.

I think it's getting worse.

Let me take you to the ER.

Okay. I threw up everything. My stomach hurts so much.

Gosh, it really hurts.

Let's go.

My gosh.

You'll feel better in no time once it kicks in.

Okay. Thank goodness this happened when I was at the hospital.

I was lucky, right?

"Lucky"? You're in the ER now because you were in pain.

It's nothing serious. I'd call this lucky.

Hey. This must have been stressful for you.

Sorry. You're so busy but even have to look after me now.

Thank you.

No problem. We've been getting a few acute enteritis patients lately.

It was probably caused by something you ate, so watch what you eat.

And…

we have your urinalysis results.

What is it?

Is it something bad?

No, it's not that.

It came back positive for HCG.

What does that mean, honey?

You mean, she's pregnant?

Yes. You tested positive for pregnancy.

You both had no idea, right?

Yes. We didn't think

we'd conceive a baby.

Book an appointment while she's getting the IV

so she can see an OB-GYN.

Is Seok-hyeong available today? You should see him.

No, it's okay. I can call him.

-Thank you, Professor. -All right. Get some rest.

I don't want to drive. Let's take your car.

Sure. Let's take mine and Seok-hyeong's car.

Hey, why are you here?

This is my office.

I know that, but you said the surgery would take long.

We managed to get the bleeding under control pretty quickly.

What was that about the cars?

I asked him whose cars we were taking to Mount Seorak this weekend.

We'll take mine and Seok-hyeong's.

What time should we leave? We'll discuss it in the group chat.

There's no need.

We're going on a package tour,

so don't worry about any of that.

MOUNT SEORAK ITINERARY

What's that?

"Gongnyong Ridge's Mount Seorak Itinerary" made by Jeong-won.

From whose cars we're taking

to which rest areas we'll stop at, when we'd need to fill gas,

and which restaurants we'll eat at, everything's here.

I'm getting a little scared.

At least he didn't make a list of public restrooms.

Gapyeong and Naerincheon.

We'll stop at those two rest areas,

and underneath it,

it says, "Use the restroom here," with an asterisk.

Should we tell Gyeo-ul to run away?

I'm not young,

and I wasn't expecting to get pregnant at all.

This was totally unexpected,

so my husband and I will need to discuss

whether or not we want to keep the baby.

First, let's talk about your ultrasound results.

Okay.

You got a positive result in your urinalysis.

But sometimes, it can be a false-positive,

so we did the ultrasound to make sure.

You are pregnant.

Everything looks good with the baby. It's all settled in the womb.

Judging from the size of the baby,

I think you're a little over ten weeks pregnant.

You had no idea?

My periods are very irregular, so I didn't know.

When I missed my period,

I just thought it was premature menopause.

I never even thought I could be pregnant.

Your uterine walls are on the thicker side,

but we'll see how it goes.

They recorded this video for you.

That's how your baby is moving inside your womb now.

Babies move quite a bit even at week ten.

This is the baby's head, and this is the torso.

You see the arms here and the legs over here.

We checked the fetal heart rate too, and it's within the normal range.

Just right for week ten.

The fetus is still quite small, measuring about 3cm in length.

But you can see its tiny hands and feet,

and its heart and other major organs are formed in this stage.

It must be difficult for you,

but I have to say your baby looks

very healthy and active.

Professor Yang, my wife and I will have to discuss--

When should I start taking folic acid?

Do you think I can have a vaginal birth?

A C-section would be fine too.

Then when is our baby due?

December 2.

As for deciding between a vaginal birth and a C-section,

we'll have to wait to check the baby's position,

so we'll decide later.

Start taking folic acid right away. At least 400 micrograms a day.

I'll prescribe you some today.

You're not young, and your uterine walls are on the thicker side,

so don't miss your appointments and take good care of yourself.

I will, Professor.

Do you have any other questions?

Actually,

I feel a lump in my breast. It's been a few months.

Do you think that's caused by the pregnancy?

Does it hurt?

Only one side? Or do you feel them on both sides?

Just the right side.

It can happen mid-pregnancy

because the cells in the mammary gland start proliferating rapidly.

But you're still in the early stage, so I don't think it's that.

Why don't you see a breast surgeon just in case?

Dr. Do, she should see a breast surgeon today since she's already here.

I think that'd be the best.

Okay, I'll make sure.

DOVE

I'm going to Seoul to attend my friend's wedding this Sunday.

I'm taking Monday off.

Are you free for dinner on Monday?

I have one surgery, but I'll be done before 6 p.m.

It should be fine. How does 6:30 p.m. sound?

Sure, sounds good. I'll meet you in front of the hospital.

Actually, Ik-jun told me there is a good steakhouse across the street.

Shall we just meet there?

Feel free to suggest a place. Anywhere is fine by me.

It's "The Steakhouse in Front of the Hospital."

It's literally across the street. You won't miss it.

Then I'll see you there on Monday at 6:30 p.m.

Sure, sounds good. See you next week.

Dr. Jang.

-You're coming with us, right? -What?

The team dinner. We're leaving now.

You guys go ahead. I'll leave right after I make this call.

We'll wait for you.

It's okay. Go ahead and have dinner.

Mom. You called me, right?

Is Ga-eul there yet? Did you have dinner?

Yes, I did.

Ga-eul picked up some galbitang, so we had that together.

Great.

Gyeo-ul.

I'm just going to go back to Gwangju next week.

I'm okay now. I'm fully recovered.

Sweetheart, I know how hard you had to study

to become a doctor and make it this far.

You can't focus on work these days because of me.

I'm sorry.

I'm fine,

so just focus on your work now.

I'm afraid you'd get on the wrong side of your higher-ups.

I am staying focused, and I'm doing a good job at work.

I'm no longer a resident, so I have more time now.

And I've gotten the hang of it, so I'm more relaxed these days.

So please don't worry about me.

Think only about yourself, Mom. You haven't fully recovered yet.

I'm fine now.

I can eat on my own, and I sleep just fine now.

I can do everything on my own.

Why should I bother my busy daughter when I can do everything myself?

I don't want to be a burden.

Gyeo-ul, your so-called family…

is just bogging you down.

Don't worry about me, sweetheart.

I'll be fine on my own, so just live your life.

That will make me happy enough.

Okay, Mom.

So you're adamant about going back to Gwangju.

Then I'll hand in my resignation tomorrow and go with you.

Gyeo-ul, please.

If you go back to Gwangju,

I'll quit my job and move to Gwangju too.

If you want your dear daughter

to keep working at the hospital,

don't ever say again that you'll go back to Gwangju alone.

I can't be happy if you're not happy, Mom.

So please…

If you truly care about me,

stay with me.

Stay with me and Ga-eul.

Just live with us, Mom.

Okay?

Okay, Mom?

I haven't eaten yet. I'm going to head out now to have dinner.

I won't be home late. I'll head home right after dinner.

All right, Mom.

Where were you? I called you a bunch of times.

Let's go. Everyone else has left already.

Has the other car left yet?

Yes. He picked up Jeong-won at Yulje just now.

Yulje? Why?

He had to pick up a package.

What about U-ju? Is Auntie staying with him the whole weekend?

Why didn't you bring him?

Someone else took him.

-Who? -Mo-ne's dad.

Mo-ne's dad? Are they going camping again?

Yes.

He goes camping so often that I was curious where he worked,

but my curiosity has been answered.

What does he do?

He's a TV producer.

Hello.

Hello.

Thank you, every single time. I owe you another one.

Hello. Hi, U-ju.

-Hello. -Hi.

It's no problem at all.

Mo-ne and Ma-ne love playing with U-ju,

so this helps me.

Well, if you don't mind me asking,

where do you work? I'm just curious.

-Me? -Yes.

What do you do? You go camping every week.

Right, U-ju also told me that you're an amazing game host.

I'm a producer.

A TV producer.

Hold on. I thought you looked familiar the last time.

Are you Na Young-seok? You are, right?

I'm Jang Young-seok.

Right, your surname is Jang. Sorry about that.

Jang Mo-ne, Jang Ma-ne. Right.

It's all right.

But you look so much like him.

You look just like Na Young-seok.

I'm offended.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

Come on, U-ju. Let's go.

Today, I brought a squeaky toy hammer.

I'm really sorry.

No need to apologize. You already offended me anyway.

You just look so much like… I'm so sorry. That was rude of me.

Will we make it to Sokcho today without any issues?

I'd say it's 50-50.

Do you want me to drive?

No, it's not that.

Chances are, at least one of us will get a call from work on the way.

-Hello? -Professor, patient Hyun Byeong-mo

received catheter drainage due to ICH four days ago.

His mental status is stupor now,

and his right pupil has dilated to 0.5.

What about vitals and breathing?

The patient keeps vomiting bile.

It's an ER patient that came in due to severe abdominal pain.

I think it's volvulus. We need you here.

I'll head back right away. I'll be there in 30 minutes.

Book an OR first.

Okay.

It's a TA patient with a liver laceration. An angio was done to stop the bleeding,

but they're transferring the patient to us now

as the transplant was done here.

Okay, I'm coming now.

CHEOL-U'S GUESTHOUSE

Let's go eat something first.

We should check in first.

Make yourself at home. Call us if you need anything.

-Okay, thank you. -No problem.

This is for you.

They're from our garden. Help yourself if you need more.

-This looks great. Thank you. -You're welcome.

By the way, I guess Cheol-u isn't here now?

Did he go out with his friends? This place is called Cheol-u's Guesthouse.

I'm Cheol-u.

My gosh, I'm sorry. I assumed you named it after your kid.

It's okay. Many people think that.

Our family has been running a guesthouse for two generations.

I see.

You guys are our last guests of the year.

We're closing soon for renovations.

But it's nice and clean here.

Apparently, this isn't the type of decor the young people like.

Our daughter has been pestering us about it.

She sent us a big chunk of money, so it'll start next month.

She works at a big hospital in Seoul--

Honey, please. You're too chatty today.

-What? -Let's go. Sorry! Rest up.

-Go. -Goodness.

Have a good day.

-You too! -Keep the door closed.

Okay.

Where's the meat?

I'm hungry. Let's have some ramyeon first.

Just have the meat.

It'll take forever to set it all up.

Let's have ramyeon now. The meat can wait.

Why are you staring at their family portrait?

-Are you jealous? -No, it's not that.

She just looks so familiar.

-Who? -This high school girl.

I've definitely seen her somewhere before. She looks familiar.

You really didn't know when you booked it?

No, we had no idea. Is it really owned by Dr. Chu's parents?

Yes. Her photos are everywhere in the house.

The noodles will swell up. Come and eat.

What a coincidence. I should tell Gyeo-ul.

Does Dr. Chu know yet?

I don't think so. There's no way that bear already called her.

Hey, the noodles are getting all soggy.

I like soggy noodles.

You do? Why?

We never see eye to eye. We're just so different.

-Do we have any pickled radish? -Eat kimchi.

Professor Yang is there now?

Yes. They booked it randomly

but just found out your parents own it.

-Cheol-u's Guesthouse, right? -Yes, that's right.

Is that your brother's name?

No, it's my dad's name.

I see.

Hey, Gyeo-ul. I'll call you back. Okay.

Please…

My love, you're working on the weekend. You must be tired. Love you, sweetie.

-Mom, the guests who just arrived. -Yes.

-They're professors from Yulje. -Really? Seriously?

One of them is my professor, the one who's advising me on my thesis.

He's the professor I admire the most.

Who? Which one of the two?

The one who looks like a bear.

A bear?

You'd know right away.

That was 263m.

-That sound was just amazing, wasn't it? -Yes.

All right. On the left…

-Hand over the remote. -Why?

-Let's watch New Journey to the West. -I'm watching golf.

-That's not even live. -You'll be watching a rerun too.

How did you know?

I didn't know. You fell for my trick.

Watch it on your phone. You do it all the time.

Why would I, when there's this huge TV? You use your phone.

No, this is perfect.

The distance was good, but it curved to the right.

You see, the sound of the drivers… That resonance.

-It sounds incredible. -Right.

It'll help you enjoy the match even more.

Professors, sorry to bother you.

You should try this, if you're not in bed yet.

-Okay! -Okay!

You're in Sokcho, so you should have some sashimi.

-My gosh, thank you. -Thank you.

It was caught today, and we made this just now.

You can't have sashimi like this in Seoul.

This is too much. Why don't you join us?

Gosh, no. We eat this often.

Please join us. We can have a drink together too.

Well, shall we? Let's join them, honey.

What are you talking about? I need antacids for my indigestion.

Thank you, but it's okay.

Thank you so much for visiting our guesthouse, Professors.

-Gosh, thank you. -We're so glad to be here.

Please take good care of Min-ha.

Of course, but she's very good at her job.

Min-ha told me over and over

that you can rarely take time off. She told me not to bother you.

Well, get some rest.

-Thank you for this. -You're welcome.

Enjoy. It's… Good night.

-Let's go. Come on! -What?

Come on!

I want a drink. Beer?

Soju, obviously.

-Isn't it hot? Should we open the window? -I'm cold.

Let's just go to bed.

We should finish this. You can go to bed.

Hey!

YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

DO JAE-HAK

Hey, Jae-hak. Where are they at now?

They just started working on the wiring, Professor.

I think we can start in about an hour.

Oh, really?

Yes. We'll start at around 2 p.m. at the earliest.

Okay.

The surgery before mine got delayed, so I'll be delayed by an hour too.

I'm sorry, but can we push it back by an hour? To 7:30 p.m.

Sorry.

Sure, no problem.

What's wrong?

Did you find something suspicious?

No.

They've submitted most of the documents

along with interviews of witnesses attesting that they're close friends.

And the donor's wife has consented to it as well.

Really?

Yes. She told me in tears

that she was initially against it.

But her husband was so adamant about it that she ended up

giving him the go-ahead.

She's not sure whether they're "best friends,"

but they fight all the time.

She said they fight every single day.

Then isn't it good to go?

The thing is…

I can hand over the documents and request an approval,

but I'm a little…

Obsessive?

I am obsessive.

From doctors to medical coordinators, every hospital employee is.

We're obsessive in a good way.

What's bothering you though?

Just one thing.

That is a little odd.

Such a close friend would emcee the reception or stay by the groom's side.

He's nowhere in the two-hour video?

That's right. Then he suddenly shows up right before the group photo session.

After two full hours.

I know it's not a big deal,

but I need to solve this mystery

to hand over the application and documents in full confidence.

Perhaps he was collecting cash gifts at the wedding.

You'd put someone you trust the most in charge of that.

Maybe he was manning the cash gift table.

Wedding videos are centered around the bride and groom,

so it's not too odd that he's not in the video.

Instead of asking them,

you should try asking their friends or relatives

who attended the wedding.

I have to go.

All right.

-Hello. -Hello.

-Ju-won is here. -Yes, hello.

Hello.

Hello.

You're early, as always.

We're short-staffed, so I should help out.

We'll start with 5cm.

If we can't see the site well, we'll extend it by 0.5cm on each side.

-Yes, sir. -Got it, Professor.

Scalpel.

Suction.

I'm sorry, Professor.

Right now, it's okay.

But unlike you guys, I'm wearing three times magnifying loupes,

so even a slight shake looks like an earthquake to me.

Had it happened during a vessel dissection,

it would have been bad.

You're doing a great job, but try to be more careful.

Yes, sir. I apologize.

Irrigation.

Sure.

ANESTHESIA DURATION, CURRENT TIME, ELAPSED TIME

Professor, can we use the Bovie?

No, we'll tie it.

Okay, got it.

When performing the Kasai procedure, make sure you tie off everything,

including the small vessels of the portal vein.

Yes, Professor.

You may be wondering why you have to tie off such small vessels,

but this is often where the bleeding begins.

It may feel like a hassle, but it'd be upsetting to see

the kid's condition getting worse because we neglected this 1mm.

So hang in there. Let's wrap this up nicely.

Yes, sir.

YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

The opening is 4mm.

As for the annulus, 7mm at the most.

Isn't it too small?

ANESTHESIA DURATION, CURRENT TIME, ELAPSED TIME

How does the TEE look?

As for the muscle, we can't go any further.

The small annulus is the problem.

The pressure gradient is too high.

Who is he?

A professor in Pediatrics.

I see.

It doesn't look like we can save the valve.

This won't do.

Call Nurse So I-hyeon and tell her to prepare a homograft.

Sure.

HOMOGRAFT SHEET

The available leaflet lengths are 23, 24, and 25.

This one is too old.

Show me the next one.

Thanks.

Great. We'll go with this one.

Sure, I'll get it ready.

-Hey, Gyeo-ul. -Professor.

We extubated Han Yeong-sik, the transplant patient from two days ago.

But his saturation has dropped, so I think we should intubate him again.

Explain the situation to his guardian and proceed with it.

Do you want me to come?

I'll monitor him and call you if anything happens.

Okay, call me if it looks serious.

Wait, you're not on duty tonight.

I'll monitor this patient for a bit and get going.

Gosh, all right.

My gosh.

Have some coffee, Professor.

And it's raining outside.

Really?

Look at that.

Gosh.

What do you want for your birthday?

Gosh, I'm not a kid. Don't get me anything.

Three, two, one.

A dryer. A fridge would be good too.

I need a new dryer and fridge.

This is your last chance.

Three, two, one.

Anything.

If it's from you, I don't care what it is.

All right. I'll figure it out, then.

If all night shifts were like this, it wouldn't be so bad.

Hey, Seong-yeong.

Okay, I'm coming.

Thanks for the coffee.

Take it easy.

Eureka!

The recipient's wife found a photo of him on her phone.

The relatives who attended the wedding also confirmed it.

I owe you a meal, Professor Lee.

I have the homograft here.

You can put it here.

Professor Kim, the homograft is here.

Let me have a look.

Good. We'll use this.

Okay.

Did you just finish the surgery?

How's Dr. Do?

Did you just finish the surgery?

How's Dr. Do?

You're still here? I thought you were having dinner with your mom.

Today, I want to have dinner with you.

Is the pressure gradient better now?

Yes. The velocity is under 2m as well.

And no regurgitation.

-Well done. -Okay.

It looks good.

-Thank you for staying late. -Good job.

-Well done. -Thank you, Professor.

CURRENT TIME 21:26

Gosh, the parents must be worried.

-Close it up well. -Will do.

The surgery went well.

-Gosh. -My gosh. Thank you.

Thank you, Professor Kim.

As I explained to you before,

I wanted to save the valve at all costs but couldn't.

Ga-ram's pulmonary annulus is small, and the pressure gap is big.

In such cases, we often have to perform follow-up surgery.

Anyway, we unfortunately had to use a transannular patch

and inserted a homograft, which I have explained to you in the past.

Everything went well, and the valve is functioning well now,

so don't worry too much.

We'll move Ga-ram to the ICU in about an hour.

We'll make sure you can see Ga-ram then.

-Thank you, Professor Kim. -Thank you, Professor Kim.

-It was the best meal I've had recently. -Me too.

Professor.

Yes.

How come you're not asking?

About my family.

Why my mom was hurt

and what is going on with my family.

You've never asked me about it once.

It didn't seem like you wanted to talk about it.

I figured there must be a reason, so I was waiting for you to tell me.

My dad is abusive.

Whenever he drinks, he hits my mom. It started when I was little.

When he gets angry, he loses it.

He throws everything that catches his eye.

Once, he threw a glass bottle at my mom, which hurt her.

And once, I broke my arm while trying to stop him.

He was abusive to me and Ga-eul too.

He kicked and hit us all the time.

Our home felt like hell.

On my way home from school,

I was always terrified.

I studied hard because I wanted to escape our miserable home.

Both Ga-eul and I slept comfortably for the first time

when we moved to Seoul for college.

Just knowing Dad wasn't there,

I wasn't scared to go home for the first time in my life.

I did worry about my mom…

but I only thought about myself.

From time to time,

I thought my mom sounded upset on the phone,

but she said everything was fine

and that she was okay,

so I believed her.

But about a month ago, I got a call from a hospital in Gwangju.

They said my mom was badly hurt.

A ruptured eardrum, a rib fracture,

and a broken nose. They said she needed surgery

and asked for my consent.

When I arrived in Gwangju and saw her,

I realized how badly hurt she was.

My dad beat her up, so there were bruises all over her face and body.

The surgery went well, and she recovered quickly.

But I was still so worried about her.

She didn't talk

or eat anything all day.

She just laid in bed all day like a dead person.

She looked as though she had given up on life.

Professor.

I want to see you every day too.

I want to be with you all the time,

but my mom needs me now.

I want to only think about my mom at the moment.

I'm sorry.

Don't worry about me.

Just being able to see you at the hospital makes me happy enough,

so you should stay by her side at all times for a while.

And Gyeo-ul.

Don't beat yourself up.

I get it.

If I were in your situation, I would have done the same.

It's not your fault,

so don't torture yourself with such thoughts.

And once a week…

Let's have dinner together like this at least once a week.

That's all I ask for.

You can do that for me, right?

THE STEAKHOUSE IN FRONT OF THE HOSPITAL

Why didn't you call me?

I would've texted you if you were late because of something else,

but I didn't hear from you,

so I just assumed the surgery was taking longer than expected.

How are you feeling?

Good. I'm okay now.

Jun-wan.

Well…

Saying this now

is probably pointless,

but about lying to you

and breaking up with you…

I'm really sorry.

I thought you were stressed out because of me.

Your job is stressful and exhausting enough.

I thought I was just adding to your stress.

I didn't want to be hurt…

so I hurt you instead.

I was selfish. I'm sorry.

And…

I still have feelings for you.

That's why I kept that photo of you.

But that's just how I feel.

I'll deal with it, so you don't need to worry about it.

You know…

we'll run into each other

from time to time.

Can you act like nothing ever happened whenever we run into each other?

I don't think I can do that.

YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

Hey.

Tomorrow's dress code is "black and chain."

Do you have that?

No. Black's fine, but I don't wear chains.

Gosh, Lee Ik-jun. That prick is always happy-go-lucky.

I envy him.

Jae-hak must be done with the appointment by now, right?

They're seeing a breast surgeon first, right?

Yes.

We have your biopsy results.

We couldn't do the other tests because you're pregnant,

but we believe that you have stage two breast cancer.

We'll find out more should you decide to undergo surgery,

but the size of the tumor is about 3cm at the moment,

and the cancer has spread to the lymph nodes.

You can undergo surgery in your current stage of pregnancy,

but you have triple-negative breast cancer.

Considering that,

I think it'd be best

to shrink the tumor through neoadjuvant chemotherapy

and treat the micrometastasis

prior to the surgery.

And I'd also have to consult our specialists in Hemato-Oncology.

Well, the problem is that you're pregnant now.

You are in the 11th week of pregnancy,

which means we can't get you started on chemotherapy right away.

We'd have to wait until Week 14 to make sure it won't affect the fetus,

but at the moment…

If you decide to keep the baby,

we'll have no choice but to delay the chemotherapy.

The tumor might grow while we wait, or it might not.

We have no way of knowing.

If you wish to be treated sooner,

you can choose to terminate your pregnancy.

Then we can get you started on chemotherapy immediately.

The two of you should decide what you'd like to do.

We'll give up the baby, Professor.

We'll give up the baby and get her started on chemotherapy right away.

Book us an appointment with the Professor of Hemato-Oncology.

Hold on, honey. Just a moment.

What?

Don't worry about a thing.

It's just stage two.

Start your chemotherapy now. With that and surgery,

you'll be cured in no time.

Trust me.

Professor, let's start this week.

We'll start the chemotherapy right after her internist appointment.

We'll receive chemotherapy

as soon as we terminate her pregnancy.

Can we let you know after giving it some thought?

Yes, of course.

It's still early in the pregnancy,

so I suggest you consult the doctors in OB-GYN before making your decision.

Okay, I'll do that.

Let's go, honey.

Gosh, you said you didn't want a baby.

You told me to trust you.

Please, just listen to me.

YANG SEOK-HYEONG

You should answer it. I'll go sit over there.

Yes, Professor.

What did you decide to do? Did you manage to persuade her?

No. I told her I'd follow her decision.

She's so adamant about it. Nothing I say will persuade her.

We'll keep the baby and undergo chemotherapy.

I see.

Jae-hak, I don't think it's a bad decision.

We'll fix her. We can do it.

But I get the feeling that she'll end up forgoing chemotherapy.

That would be insane.

What should I do?

But I feel like she will.

Jae-hak, you haven't seen Seok-hyeong yet, right?

No, I'm waiting for him now.

What should I do?

What if she refuses to undergo chemotherapy too?

Let Seok-hyeong handle it.

He'll talk to her.

Trust me.

Well…

Have you made your decision?

Yes.

I still think it's crazy,

but my wife is adamant about it, so we decided to keep the baby.

But I don't want to undergo chemotherapy.

I'll get started on it after I give birth.

What are you talking about? You won't undergo chemotherapy?

We talked about this earlier. What's with you?

Who knows what drugs they'll use?

And they'll run all sorts of tests on top of that.

I'll start my first chemotherapy session after I give birth.

We don't know…

what it could do to the baby.

I want to give birth without undergoing chemotherapy.

Please let me do that, Professor.

I don't care if I die.

I just want to make sure my baby will be born healthy.

PATIENT DIAGNOSIS CHART

Both the mother and the baby should be healthy.

What's the point if it's just the baby?

What if you're gone when the baby comes out to see you?

That's very irresponsible.

You can still undergo chemotherapy even if you're pregnant.

It can be done, and many people do it.

If your condition was very serious,

neither the breast surgeon nor I would've given you this option.

We would've terminated your pregnancy and put you on chemotherapy.

But you can make a choice.

Your health comes first,

so you can choose to give up on your baby

and focus on treating your breast cancer. That's one option.

Or you can delay the chemotherapy by three weeks to keep the baby

and treat your cancer at the same time.

You only have these two options.

There are times

when I tell my patients that they must make a choice.

When I do that, I ponder on it too.

"What would be the best decision?

What choice should they make?"

And oftentimes, this helps me answer that question.

"What would I do if the patient were my family?

What would I do if she were my sister?"

If you were my sister,

I'd tell you to wait a few weeks

to keep your baby, then focus on your chemotherapy.

"The doctors seem positive about it, so why would you forgo chemotherapy?

Just wait three weeks and start your chemotherapy."

I'll probably say that to her.

Then every weekend,

I'd go to the temple alone in secret

and pray that your tumor wouldn't grow.

I'll pretend I never heard what you said earlier.

I'll book you Hemato-Oncology and OB-GYN appointments.

And we'll discuss your case with the breast surgeon as well.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Thank you, Professor.

No problem.

YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

How did it go?

She's agreed to undergo chemotherapy.

We decided to keep the baby and get chemotherapy.

Initially, she said she wanted to wait until the baby was born.

But Professor Yang helped me.

He managed to persuade her.

Thank God. I'm glad you got it sorted out.

I owe Professor Yang, big-time.

I'll repay him for the rest of my life.

Leave that to me.

Don't worry about it. Just take good care of your wife.

Okay. Thank you, Professor.

Go home. You're done for the day.

Did Seok-hyeong manage to persuade her?

Yes, sounds like it.

That's great.

I knew we could count on the bear.

You're right.

Gosh, I'm annoyed.

I heard the coordinator has sent in all your documents. Am I right?

Yes. She said our case was processed faster than most cases.

Doctor, what if they say that the documents we submitted aren't enough

and that they still think it's suspicious?

Then do we have to get everything ready again and wait?

Well…

There's a very slim chance that they'll say that.

The coordinator wouldn't even have sent in your application in that case.

She thoroughly checked everything and vetted you.

I'm sure she requested an approval because she's confident

you meet all the requirements.

-I see. -My gosh.

By the way, how did you two become friends?

Your personalities are very different.

It's been ages, so I don't really remember.

How did we become friends?

We were classmates in tenth grade.

Did I sit in front of him?

Or did we sit next to each other?

Anyway, the seats were assigned based on our grades.

I came in 63rd place. Him, 64th.

No. It was the other way around. I came in 63rd place.

Anyway, neither of us really studied. We just hung out all the time.

I'd go over to his place, and he'd come over too.

We've been busy hanging out like that, and 30 years have passed already.

Gosh, I'm sick of you now.

Then why are you donating your liver to him?

Because I'd have no one to hang out with if he's gone.

If he dies, I won't have anyone to play with.

I'll be bored out of my mind.

That's why.

This prick…

I'd never do it for his sake alone.

That's definitely more than enough reason.

May I ask you for a favor, Doctor?

If our application gets approved, and if we can undergo the surgery,

-could you… -Of course.

I'll make sure

your friend's surgery is painless even if yours isn't.

No. Could you make sure mine is painless if it's possible at all?

I don't care if his hurts.

-My goodness. -Gosh, you're such a prick.

Goodness.

YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

-Cool sneakers? -Sneakers?

-I see. -Sneakers?

-All black. -Yes, black.

Yoon-hee.

Kim Eun-su might have some spotting, so keep track of the pads.

Sure.

Professor.

What are you doing tomorrow night?

We're going clubbing to celebrate one of the fellows' birthday.

We'll throw a birthday party at the club.

You should come with us.

Me?

You want to go clubbing with me?

-Yes. -I'm going too.

Come with us, Professor.

Thanks, but please count me out.

Have fun without me. I'm no fun.

If I go, all the residents will be uncomfortable.

No, we won't be uncomfortable.

Everyone will be, but you.

Anyway, I'm off. Take it easy.

-Bye. -Good night.

Get home safely.

-Right, Min-ha. -Yes?

Your thesis draft you emailed me. The file is corrupted.

I see.

Can you send it again?

Sure.

I think you can go do rounds like that.

There it is.

No way.

I should put on socks at least.

Let's go.

You should take the cap off.

Right!

Let's go.

The director will be there, so I'm not sure what I should wear.

Everyone else is asking too.

I should wear a proper shirt at least.

Like a dress shirt? No. Just wear comfortable clothes.

You can even wear slippers. Goodness.

You'd be coming from work,

and he just wants to treat you guys to a meal.

You don't need to dress up.

Tell everyone to wear comfy clothes so I'll be the only one dressed up.

All right, thank you.

By the way, I heard you're practicing a rock song this week.

How did you know?

Professor Ahn bragged about his new leather pants.

Rock and roll.

This ain't a song for the broken-hearted

No silent prayer for faith-departed

And I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd

You're gonna hear my voice when I shout it out loud

It's my life It's now or never

I ain't gonna live forever

I just want to live while I'm alive

My heart is like an open highway

Like Frankie said, "I did it my way"

I just want to live while I'm alive

It's my life

This is for the ones who stood their ground,

For Tommy and Gina, who never backed down

Tomorrow's getting harder, make no mistake

Luck ain't even lucky, got to make your own breaks

-It's my life and it's now or never -It's my life and it's now or never

-I ain't gonna live forever -Live forever

I just want to live while I'm alive

-It's my life. -It's my life.

My heart is like an open highway.

Like Frankie said, "I did it my way"

I just want to live while I'm alive

It's my life

Better stand tall when they're calling you out

Don't bend, don't break Baby, don't back down

-It's my life and it's now or never -It's my life and it's now or never

-I ain't gonna live forever -Live forever

I just want to live while I'm alive

-It's my life -It's my life

My heart is like an open highway

Like Frankie said, "I did it my way"

I just want to live while I'm alive

It's now or never

I ain't gonna live forever

I just want to live while I'm alive

-It's my life -It's my life

My heart is like an open highway

Like Frankie said, "I did it my way"

I just want to live while I'm alive

-It's my life -It's my life

You took photos?

Gosh, I told you not to bother them.

Just one. I only took one photo.

Mom! Send me the photo. Goodness.

Nice photo, right?

-Is the one wearing blue your professor? -Hold on.

That's why I put four boxes of sweet and crispy chicken in his trunk.

-I hope he enjoyed it. -Mom.

It's the one in white, not blue. The one in white is my professor.

-You said he looked like a bear. -That's right.

The one in blue is a bear, a polar bear.

A polar bear? What are you talking about? Just a regular bear!

Seriously? Honey.

Honey. Turns out, it's the guy in white, not blue.

-Really? -Yes!

The one who came back to drop off antacids for me.

He's the bear.

I mean, he is Min-ha's professor.

Oh, no!

Whatever, I have to go!

Gosh, seriously!

I did bring it up, but it's a bit much financially.

-Jeong-won, Professor Ahn. -Yes.

Do you have Daddy-Long-Legs' number?

It's a social services department.

Yes, I'll send it to you now.

Hey, Gyeo-ul. Dr. Jang.

Yes, Professor.

Did you break up with your boyfriend by any chance?

Why do you ask?

Well, you've been seeing him for a while,

but no news about you getting hitched,

so I was just wondering if you were still with him.

Yes, I am.

You see… Maybe I'm being too nosy.

If you two break up,

just tell us, okay?

I want to set you up with someone.

Professor.

Oh, boy.

Geon says you're his type.

Professor.

We grabbed a bite to eat with the residents when you weren't here.

-Okay. -While talking about their ideal types,

Yu-ri, Se-hoon, and Ji-woo all named an idol singer,

but Geon said Dr. Jang was his type.

I'm sorry. I apologize.

Hey, why are you sorry? It's nothing to apologize for.

Don't apologize unless you really--

What?

Hey, Professor Ahn.

You called me by mistake.

Yes, I know I called you.

I sent you a phone number. Call that number now.

Okay, I'll do it later. This is just starting to get interesting.

No, do it now.

It's now or never. Call now.

-Now? -Yes, right now.

-Go for it. -Okay.

-You wrap it up. -All right.

-Ahn Jeong-won speaking. -Professor.

A baby in the NICU is showing symptoms of abdominal distension

with a bruised-looking stomach.

Okay, I'm coming now.

YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

I'll leave your birthday gift in your office.

Pick it up after the team dinner.

-Wait, should I give it to you tomorrow? -No, my birthday is today.

Just leave it in my office. I'll pick it up afterwards.

Too bad I'm in Gangnam now for this team dinner.

Your office is open, right? I'll leave it on your desk.

It was cheap, very cheap.

I just got you something you'd like and use often.

Okay, thanks.

I'll see you tomorrow.

All right, good night.

Thanks.

-You stayed late again. -Gosh.

Going home?

No, I'm going to have some fun. I'm going out for drinks.

-Where? -In Itaewon.

My cousin called. We're meeting up for a beer.

-You're on duty, right? -Yes.

Take it easy.

Good night.

PROFESSOR YANG SEOK-HYEONG

Min-ha.

Oh, hello.

What are you doing next weekend? Do you have plans?

Me? Are you asking me?

Yes, you.

I've got no plans.

Why do you ask?

Let's grab a bite to eat.

It'll be my treat.

YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

Yulje Emergency Center.

We have a trauma patient. A male in his 40s.

Mental status, drowsy. BP 150 over 90.

Heart rate is 80, 12 breaths per minute.

And his temperature is 36.7 degrees Celsius.

He collapsed

after getting hit by someone in the back of the head.

We checked his ID while checking his mental status,

and he's a doctor at Yulje.

He's a doctor here?

What's his name?

Subtitle translation by: Liya Choi

How did you even become a doctor?

You're not smart and are slow-witted.

Why would he scold me so much when I made a tiny mistake?

I took her out to lunch and even went to drink together

because she didn't seem to get along with others.

What do you mean?

Is he still not answering?

I didn't see him in the ICU this morning and his phone is still off.

Gosh, Dr. Chu will be blamed for everything.

Just hang in there. You've been through so much.

Was it a robbery?

According to the witnesses, he was hit with a rock from behind.

Can you hear me?

-How did they catch the culprit? -There was a surveillance camera.

The police called us.

Right. Is Seok-hyeong really going to the US?

What? He didn't tell me about it yet.

He would have told us if he's leaving.

I have a date with him this weekend.

Could it be…

Finally, my dream has come true!

You didn't break up with Ms. Jang, right?
