Original subtitles

In-hae, get up.

You need to get your fluids and be sterilized.

A little longer.

What brings you here?

I came to pick up In-hae.

You don't think I can handle it?

You're a mess.

-Didn't you wash your face? -Doc...

Doc.

I...

In-hae!

-In-hae! -Wake up!

In-hae!

Fever 39.6. BP is low. Why did she spit up blood?

She didn't take her acid suppressant.

Her acid level rose, so her gastric mucous membrane weakened.

Does she have another infection?

Yes, she has acute sepsis. A blood infection.

Oh, no. In-hae.

-Is she in septic shock? -Yes.

Check her blood and replace her chemo port.

-Yes, sir. -Yes, sir.

I told you I didn't want to see you.

Leave. Don't worry about the foundation.

-I'll take care of-- -I'm sorry.

I mean it.

It's my first time

apologizing for anything since junior high school.

I know

I can't undo the mess I've caused.

But

at least give me an opportunity to try.

Chae-gyeong.

There's nothing you can do for the foundation.

It's not for the foundation.

It's for my dad and Dr. Choi...

and for you.

Thank goodness there was a healthy blood vessel.

I shouldn't have taken her home.

It would've happened even if she were here. Don't blame yourself.

He's correct.

She probably got the infection a week or two ago

and it remained dormant until now.

She didn't have a fever just yesterday.

Septic shock always comes suddenly.

Come to the office.

What do you think you're doing?

Si-on.

How could you fail to monitor her medication? You're her attending!

I'm sorry.

Jin-uk. You've known her the longest. You should've taken extra care of her!

-I'm sorry. -Yun-seo.

You should've sent her back to the hospital. Why did you take her home?

You treat her like your niece, yet you allowed her to collapse!

Do-han!

Don't you look after your patients?

She was scheduled for surgery.

How can you let her get an infection?

What if she doesn't recover before the surgery?

-I'm sorry, sir. -Do your job right

unless you want to kill her before she even gets a transplant.

We're sorry, In-yeong.

As her attending, I'm most at fault.

No.

It's my fault.

She was upset because of me

and ran out into the cold.

What position did you play?

Outfield.

And I batted fifth.

You were in the cleanup trio.

Yes. I want to be a great player

like Lee Byung-kyu.

Sure.

I'm sure you will.

Oh, right.

Here.

Take this.

It's the ball from my first hit.

-Why are you giving this to me? -It's a gift.

Please help me get better.

It's okay.

Please.

Please take it.

We're going to Japan next week.

I made an appointment to see Dr. Miura Daisuke at Kameda Hospital.

He's a top scholar in our field.

I don't mean to offend you.

I hope you understand.

Of course.

I'll send them our file.

Thank you.

Mr. Kang.

I'm glad...

that my last memory of you

will be as a child's father.

Why don't you keep it?

Don't you like it?

I do, but it's too expensive. I feel bad.

It's okay. Just take it.

No, I can't.

I have a feeling it's not really about the price.

Why? Did someone tell you not to wear it?

Is someone jealous that I got it for you?

I guess the person you like is very interested in you.

Otherwise, she wouldn't say anything.

Really? Do you think that's the reason?

So you really are returning this because of her.

I was only guessing.

Dang it, I was tricked.

I'm about to hate you this much, Ms. Yoo.

He's so cute.

If you resist,

you're dead.

Got it, you asshole?

What am I thinking about? Oh my gosh.

Thinking about me?

What made you grin like that?

None of your business.

Let me take a guess.

I'm our hospital's psychic after all.

Forget it! What do you want?

The time has come.

Pediatric Surgery's anniversary.

Oh my gosh, you're right.

It's time to start preparing for the show.

Discuss with the doctors first.

Don't do Cinderella like last year. The kids didn't like it.

I'll plan something crazy fun this time.

-You may go. -Okay.

Is your wound healing okay?

Yes.

It's fine.

Don't slack off on treating it.

The doctor's health is the most important for patients.

I won't.

But how's reviving the foundation going?

Ms. Lee and the directors are trying their best,

but it doesn't look good.

It's not a matter of the hospital being acquired.

I fear that after a while, our talented doctors

will become pawns in the game of money.

You're right.

I think it'll be too hard to stand firm on principle alone.

Of course it will be.

But a principle is like a sheath.

It's not sharp enough to cut,

but it can cover that sharp blade so that no one gets hurt.

Why are you still working on that?

Well...

I'm thinking about writing a thesis about it.

Mr. Kang

is going to Dr. Miura Daisuke.

Sorry?

Isn't he the top expert in pediatric surgery?

Yes.

Don't spend too much time on it.

Are you okay?

Is the wound infected?

No.

What?

I won.

Si-on.

Si-on. It's me.

Dong-gu.

Chang Dong-gu.

Dong-gu...

Hey.

You can play with us on one condition.

What is it?

There are ball bearings in there.

Bring one to me.

Dong-gu.

Chang Dong-gu.

My son has sacrococcygeal teratoma.

RARE TUMOR AT TAILBONE

He's getting surgery tomorrow.

I had him when I was a senior in high school.

He's still my kid, so I raised him.

To be honest,

I saw you two days ago.

But I couldn't muster up the courage...

to talk to you.

I know it was when we were kids, but...

what I did to you and your brother was...

unforgivable.

So I feel like...

Ju-nam is being punished for my sins.

Don't say such thing to a child.

He is just sick. He's not being punished.

I missed

my opportunity to apologize.

I'm sorry.

Please forgive me, my friend.

Si-on!

Why are you so sluggish?

Oh. Okay. I'll get up.

Dr. Kim.

What?

I have a question.

What now?

Someone has done terrible things to me.

If he apologizes,

must I forgive him?

That depends on the person.

If he's apologizing to feel better, don't forgive him.

But if he's apologizing sincerely, you can forgive him.

I can't really tell his intention.

It's simple. See how he's lived

and how he lives now.

-Dr. Park. -Yes?

Your mind is wandering again.

I caught it.

Can you spare an hour tonight?

What for?

My business card was picked

at a restaurant, so I want to treat you to dinner.

-A business card? -See you later.

Kiss!

Excuse me! Please.

Let us eat first.

Then after you eat...

Kiss!

Excuse me!

Just leave that to us.

Leave what?

You're going to do it with the lights off?

Kiss!

Kiss!

I thought it was just a free dinner, but I guess it was a couple's thing.

It's okay, as long as I get to eat steak.

They said to kiss once we're done. What should we do?

What should we do?

No, I don't want to.

I was just kidding. No need to be so defensive.

That's not it. I heard you're supposed to kiss the person you'll marry.

That's why we can't do it.

Who said that?

Did I hear that wrong?

Then when and where am I supposed to do it?

Anywhere.

All the time. Okay?

Oh.

All the time, I see.

Why did you bring me here?

You said you wanted to find your good memories.

Yeah.

This is where I asked you out.

You're right.

I remember now.

What did you say?

-I think it was something really cool. -It wasn't cool at all.

What I said was,

"I'm sick of being alone."

-That's it? -Yes.

Was that really all?

Yes.

What the heck is that?

Why do I remember it being something cool?

Maybe you thought I looked cool.

True.

I was totally blinded. Anything would've seemed cool.

I guess you can't recall good memories

just by words alone.

I think you're right.

Body temperature of 36.7.

A woman with unusually thin humerus and ulna

was sitting next to me. That's all I remember.

Do Jin-uk and you

talk about girls and stuff?

Yes, sometimes.

Did you tell him about me?

No, I didn't.

Were you embarrassed?

No, that's not it.

I just didn't want to tell him.

Why didn't you want to tell him?

Didn't you want to get it off your chest?

To be honest, I wanted to.

But I thought if I told people,

it would hurt the person I liked.

How so?

Because I'm different from most people,

whomever I like will probably be teased, too.

My friends were always teased for being my friends.

So it was just easier to be alone.

It was easier to be teased alone.

You should get some sleep.

I'm...

I'm fine.

She still has a fever, but you know, right?

It takes time for sepsis to heal.

She'll be better in a few days. Don't worry too much.

Doctor.

Yes?

Sleep peacefully.

Don't toss and turn.

Sorry?

After the surgery,

I can't live a normal life.

Regardless of whom I'm with,

I...

will be a burden to him for the rest of my life.

So please...

stop here.

It's too hard for me.

Is In-hae

a burden to you?

It's the same for me.

I've given it a lot of thought,

but you could never be a burden to me.

Si-on! It was you, wasn't it?

Speak! You told In-yeong, didn't you?

I'm sorry.

It just came out.

But thanks, for telling her for me.

How did she respond?

What do you think?

You look unhappy.

I do?

But what can you do? Painful love is still love.

"Painful love is still love"?

Because I'm different from most people,

whomever I like will probably be teased, too.

I missed

my opportunity to apologize.

I'm sorry.

Please forgive me, my friend.

Are you awake?

I thought I had died.

Why would you die?

I'm sorry

for getting you in trouble.

It's okay.

Please tell Dr. Cha I'm sorry, too.

Okay, I will.

Be diligent with your treatment and take your medicine regularly, okay?

Don't cry.

Okay,

I won't cry anymore.

And

I don't want to die.

Okay.

We'll operate an hour from now.

Okay. Please take good care of him.

Please take good care of him.

He's a childhood friend.

And Ju-nam is my friend's son.

So please take good care of him.

He's your friend? Why didn't you tell me sooner?

Thank you, Si-on.

There's no need.

Surgery has to go well regardless.

You love Ju-nam a lot, right?

Of course. He's my son.

It's hard raising him, but he's my only hope.

Then I have one question.

Am I...

your friend?

Of course,

you're my friend.

I was a bad friend before,

and now, I'm a grateful friend.

Then I'll forgive you.

On one condition.

What is it?

Raise Ju-nam well and keep him healthy.

Make sure he grows up as strong and healthy as you.

I will.

I repeat. It's most important to remove the tumor

that is pressing on the nerve that goes to the leg and urethra.

That means we have to make a tiny incision.

Correct.

After that, it's pretty much all over.

-Got it? -Yes, sir.

Let's go.

Hello?

Yes, okay.

A patient with a potential hernia is in the ER.

Get over there.

What about the surgery?

You can miss this one. Go to the ER.

Okay.

He's had chest pain and stomachache for four hours.

Four hours?

He fainted in gym class and was in the nurse's office.

They were stuck in traffic for an hour on the way here.

Doctor,

is something wrong with my baby?

We need to examine him. He looks bad. Let's get a CT right away.

Okay.

Pull more.

Dr. Park, let's see the CT.

Diaphragmatic hernia. It's so big. How...

The symptoms came late, so it was discovered by chance.

The intestines are high up and pressing on the lungs.

The bowels got stuck in the diaphragm and are dead.

We must operate quickly. Quickly!

It's too late.

If we open him up now, he'll go into cardiac arrest.

Yes, sir.

It's very bad. The chief hasn't decided to operate yet.

Why that...

-How bad is the necrosis? -He came too late, so it's pretty bad.

I'll go.

-Are you sure? -Whatever happens, we have to try.

It's too late. If we open him up, it's over!

-Chief-- -Shut it!

Shit.

-We're losing time. -I know, you punk!

Dr. Park. Get an OR and an anesthesiologist ready,

and call some general surgeons.

-What are you waiting for? -Yes, sir.

-Where's the diaphragmatic hernia boy? -In the OR.

-Who's operating? -Dr. Ko is doing it.

The chief?

The chief is operating.

You be my first assistant.

Sorry?

We're the only pediatric surgeons here. So you have to be my first assistant!

Yes, sir.

He's ready.

Scalpel.

Gauze.

-Suction. -Suction.

-Cardiac arrest! -His vitals are dropping!

-Ventilation's failing! -We must relieve the pressure on the lungs

and remove the necrotized bowel.

Why is it so tangled?

BP is dropping!

It won't come out.

Chief. Retractor.

The left end of diaphragm...

I got it.

His vitals aren't back. It's a v-tach!

We'll remove the necrotized bowel later. Get the defibrillator!

-Fifty joules. Clear. -Fifty joules.

-Shot! -Shot!

Nothing.

-One hundred joules. -One hundred joules.

-Clear! Shot! -Shot!

Chief.

Chief!

Heart. Heart massage.

Please.

Please!

His pulse is returning.

His vitals are stabilizing.

You can remove the necrotized bowel now.

Okay.

Suture.

Tie.

Scissors.

Okay.

Dr. Park, finish up.

Yes, sir.

-Great work, sir. -Great work, sir.

Great work, sir.

It was nothing.

I thought you were going to transfer him again.

To have him die on the streets?

I'll let you rest.

Dr. Kim.

Yes, sir?

Thanks.

My pleasure.

Why are you running like a kid?

Chief, you're the best.

Oh my gosh.

I knew it. You really are worthy of my respect.

Stop teasing me, you punk.

Large with no jalapenos, right?

-Yes. -Thank you.

-Are you buying? -Ta-da!

It's payday. It's my duty to treat my senior doctors.

You're a role model.

-Thanks. -Thank you.

-Thank you. -Please enjoy.

Why isn't Dr. Park coming?

He's helping the chief with paperwork.

But don't you think the chief is acting weird?

Right?

Like how he did that surgery too.

He's been going to the documents room and the lab too.

I wonder what's going on?

Something is very strange.

I know.

Maybe he switched souls with someone?

I hear he goes over to Si-on's place, too.

-Si-on's place? Why? -I don't know.

Si-on said he bought spicy beef soup and told him to come over.

What an unusual pair.

Very unusual indeed.

All done. You're fine.

Do you like baseball, doctor?

I don't know much about baseball. I don't even know the rules.

Oh, I know a couple of things.

Three outs and you switch offense and defense. And home runs.

Baseball is fun.

You should learn.

Will you teach me?

Sure.

Come whenever you have time.

-I'll come every single day then. -That would be great.

I get to teach a smart doctor something.

Let's get her admitted first and we can set a date for surgery later on.

Please take good care of her.

Don't worry.

If you go out, the nurse will explain the details.

-Thank you. Let's go. -Sure.

Bye, Ye-rin.

-Was she my last patient? -Yes.

-Chief. -Yes?

Well...

Turn a little.

This isn't your fault,

so please smile.

I just feel bad.

I told you, it's not your fault.

If you keep this up, I'll get mad.

-Doc. -Yes?

You don't know

just how much you're being loved by Dr. Park, do you?

Small love is easily seen,

but if it's crazy big,

it's harder to see.

That's why

I couldn't really see my sister's love.

The funny thing is,

I only realized that right when I fainted.

I don't know why, but...

when I came back, I really wanted to live.

For my sister.

Anyway, I thought maybe you were like me,

in not being able to see.

There's something I've always wanted to ask you.

What is it?

Speak up, you punk! I want to drink in peace.

Long time ago, back when I almost failed...

Yes?

Why did you give me a high grade?

Please tell me.

Did my mother pay you?

What did you say? What do you take me for?

You want to know why I didn't fail you?

You really want to know?

-Yes. -It's because you...

were like me.

I desperately wanted to be a surgeon,

but this dang hospital was full of prodigies and geniuses.

I tried my best, but I couldn't keep up and kept falling behind.

I barely hung in there myself. But...

you were just like me.

Sure. My methods were wrong.

However,

I wanted to save you somehow.

I thought you'd do well.

Because no one did that for me.

I'll go get some rest and come back.

Just come in the morning. You haven't slept for four days.

I'm fine.

It's dangerous if you're not alert, so get some sleep.

-Thank you. -Sure.

What did you do to me?

I didn't do anything!

Both your clothes had soup on them, so I washed them.

Hey! Why I am here again?

I found you passed out at the tent bar.

The spicy beef soup is ready.

Please come quickly. Quickly.

There wasn't much bracken in it,

so I went and bought some.

Please eat up.

Sure, let's eat first.

You eat, too.

Okay.

Oh, your clothes aren't dry yet. Just wear mine.

Runners, are you ready?

Go!

U-ram is currently in the lead.

The others aren't running.

And the winner is... U-ram!

-That was fun. -Come here.

He must be tired. You should've kept him in bed.

He wanted to play with the other kids.

He's so different from when he was in the States.

He likes the doctors and he seems more alive.

He looks as happy as when he plays baseball.

Are all the runners ready? On your mark, get set, go!

Why did you say I'd go?

Why should I go just to make Auntie look good?

This is ridiculous.

Fine, but I'm staying for exactly an hour.

Don't complain, got it?

You're leaving early.

-Yeah, I have a reunion. - I see.

-Have fun. -Thanks.

Reunion?

What are your interests?

I'm too busy at the hospital.

Then you must not have time for golf.

No, I don't golf.

Where are you from?

Seoul.

-Your parents... -Yes.

He totally looks like Voldemort.

Si-on.

Wow. Wow. You look so pretty!

You look like an anchor on the news.

Breaking news.

But why did you come here instead of going home?

I felt like it!

I went on a blind date with Voldemort.

I see.

My mom kept bugging me,

so I just went briefly to be polite.

Aren't you

upset?

About what?

I lied earlier about going to a reunion.

Oh, that.

I'm fine.

Why are you always fine?

You're making me seem weird.

It's the first time you dressed so pretty since I started here.

Really?

Yes.

So

you're really not upset, right?

You're sure?

Yes.

Okay.

I'm going home.

Dad,

I love this hospital.

What?

I hurt less after coming here. It's strange.

It's like before I got hurt.

-Really? -Yeah.

Remember when I transferred to the team in Seongdam?

Of course, I do.

I went because of the famous coach,

but I did worse there.

So I went back to my school.

Yes, you did.

Our team's coach wasn't as famous,

but he made me comfortable.

That's why I hit a lot of home runs.

That's how I feel now.

I was in more pain at the big hospital in the States.

Both physically

and emotionally.

You were?

Please operate...

on Jun-yeong.

Please.

save him.

May I ask why you changed your mind?

He wants to get surgery here.

But

that's not the only reason.

I...

I wanted someone to make my hopes come true.

However,

hope is something I must choose. No one can choose it for me.

The anxiety as a father

made me sacrifice my right to choose hope.

I realized that.

That's why I changed my mind.

I understand what you mean.

But I need to clarify this one thing.

This does not affect the acquisition.

-In case-- -I feel the same way.

Right now, you are a patient's father.

That's independent from any other issue.

Thank you.

His father is about to die

and Si-on hasn't come by for days.

That's because he's busy.

He has so many patients to treat.

Why would they trust that stupid fool?

Stop calling him a stupid fool.

Not any doctor can work here.

I know the truth.

The director got him the job.

Don't say stuff like that.

-Only the best doctors can survive here. -Shut it.

I want...

I want to take a walk.

Help me up.

Stay in bed. The doctor said you need to rest.

Stop babbling and help me up!

Help me up.

Help me up.

Hey!

Hey!

Nurse!

Nurse!

Jun-yeong had abdominal adhesions, so we'll adhere a catheter

to the gall bladder

to remove spinal fluid through the valve to be absorbed into the intestines.

What were Boston's issues?

First, the adhesion, and that the catheter may fall off

because the opening may become loose.

What would happen then?

The spinal fluid will leak and can cause an infection.

Dr. Park, is there a problem?

I agree with Dr. Cha.

The gall bladder-catheter connection is the problem.

We'll have to open him up and adjust accordingly.

Dr. Lee, would you like to say something?

After the incision into the scalp, Neurosurgery will

attach the catheter from the brain to the abdomen.

Take it from there and bring it to the gall bladder.

Okay.

This gall bladder VP shunt isn't really difficult.

However,

it was critical to be creative and make adjustments.

Luckily, Dr. Cha came up with the solution.

Wow.

Okay.

-Let's go. -Yes, sir!

Scalpel.

Forceps.

The catheter's been connected to the abdomen.

Okay. Thank you.

Scalpel.

Dr. Kim.

Dr. Kim.

Are you okay?

Dr. Kim!

Dr. Kim! Wake up!

Dr. Kim!

I'm fine.

-Dr. Kim! -Dr. Kim!

It wasn't a perfect surgery.

I think I'd better take your dad to Taebek.

We can't choose patients based on their income!

Please reconsider. He's not chairman material.

-Why should I do that? -Just do as you're told!

The director here.

Unless I give up on the future of children,

I'll never give up on surgery.
