Original subtitles

Oh my goodness.

Have you seen San?

I can't find San.

Hurry. That way.

Hyeon.

-Yes? -He's not here. San isn't here.

-San isn't here? -No.

San. Kang San.

San.

-No! -Oh my gosh.

Oh my goodness.

Dr. Kwak.

Dr. Kwak.

Dr. Kwak.

Dr. Kwak.

Dr. Kwak.

Dr. Kwak.

Are you okay?

How is the patient? How is his injury?

My leg is stuck in the bus frame.

I can't take him outside.

San. Kang San.

San.

You'll be fine. I will get you out of here.

San, what's wrong? San.

San, wake up.

Why? What's happening?

He's not breathing. His pulse is too weak. I think he's in shock.

Does he have aerodermectasia?

AERODERMECTASIA: ABSCESS FILLED WITH GAS CAUSED BY LUNG DAMAGE

No.

I think it's a cardiac tamponade.

We have to intubate him right now.

We must intubate him and perform pericardiocentesis, or we'll lose him.

PERICARDIOCENTESIS: REMOVING UNWANTED FLUIDS FROM THE PERICARDIUM

Here. Take this.

-Dr. Kwak. -Dr. Kwak, are you all right?

Don't be afraid. You can do it.

-What are you doing? -You can't go in.

He's right.

Look. Look at this.

No one can go in until the rescue squad come and remove any fire hazards.

Do you expect me to leave the patient like that?

-Wait. -Doctor.

Gosh, step back.

Oh my.

Be careful.

Goodness, I told them to hurry.

What's taking them so long?

I can do this.

I can do this.

Defibrillator.

Clear.

-Can you still call yourself a doctor? -Not even interns make mistakes like this.

The patient died because of you.

Dr. Kwak.

Dr. Kwak Hyeon.

I can't do it.

I don't think I can.

-Look at me. -I can't do it, so--

Look at me.

Breathe slowly.

Take a deep breath.

Calm down.

You are a different person now

from who you were yesterday.

Right now,

you're a person who's done their best

to atone for your mistake by practicing every single day.

You're Dr. Kwak Hyeon, a hardworking internal medicine doctor.

And out there Mr. Seol Jae-chan,

a patient I desperately wanted to save,

whom you love like your own father

is waiting for you.

Today will be

one of Mr. Seol's last memories.

It's his last picnic.

At this last picnic,

we can't let him lose his student.

You can do it.

Don't think with your head.

Just...

let your hands do

what they remember.

Gauze.

The pulse is back to normal.

Good job, Dr. Kwak.

You're the one

who saved this patient.

He's fine, right? San will be okay, right?

Yes. He can't go to the picnic today though.

Look at you, Hyeon.

You're a real doctor now.

Your father will brag even more when he finds out.

I won't be able to stand it.

Do you

want to see my father?

There.

He's over there.

He may not recognize you.

His condition got worse

over the past few days.

Hey, buddy.

Hey, Kwak Seong.

It's me.

It's me, Jae-chan.

Seong?

Why, you...

Do you recognize me? It's me, Jae-chan.

Seong.

You recognize me.

It's me, Jae-chan.

Goodness, Seong. You recognize me after all.

Seong.

It's been so long.

Thank you for remembering me.

By the way,

who's that?

-Is that your son? -My goodness.

Seong.

Your mind really is broken.

My gosh. Seong.

It's okay. It's fine.

Gosh, what a terrible illness.

He recognizes a friend who he hasn't seen for 20 years.

How could he completely forget his son

who takes care of him every day?

You must feel sad.

I'm okay.

Once I quit my work at school,

-I'll move here. -Didn't you want to stay at home?

You even found a caretaker.

I've changed my mind.

Is it because of me?

Are you worried I'll be burdened by both of you?

If I'd known that you'd feel pressured,

I wouldn't have brought you here.

Hey, that's not it.

It's because I want to be close to my friend.

I won't be bored until I die. It'll be nice.

Don't you think so?

You're back early.

Only by 20 minutes.

What's this?

Jae-geol forgot to take it.

Why would he leave his coat at the hospital?

He's not even a doctor, yet he pretends to be one.

-What do you mean, "pretends"? -Give me some water.

-Give me some water now! -Gosh, you startled me.

What's going on?

-What's wrong? -What's wrong with you?

Why are you in a bad mood?

You were energetic at work.

Wasn't it exciting to fix dislocated bones for a change?

Thanks to you, three people were saved from being handicapped.

We need help.

Yeon-su, get an X-ray on the leg.

Yes, Doctor.

We have another patient.

-You were in an accident? -Yes.

Where? How badly are you hurt?

-How badly are you hurt? -Treat that patient first.

Okay, let's have a look.

You look like a smart kid.

This is...

First aid was applied very nicely.

You couldn't have done this with that arm.

-Was it the internal medicine doctor? -No.

It was our ship's Korean medicine doctor.

KIM JAE-GEOL

-Jae-geol did this? -Yes.

-Your arm too? -Of course.

Oh my. I guess it really runs in the family.

Just look at this skill.

Look at how he used his gown to wrap the wound.

-This was some quick thinking-- -It was not quick thinking.

He just got lucky.

Gosh, Director.

Anyway,

I think we should take an X-ray first.

-Where are we going? -To Busan.

What for?

To spend my old man's money.

Have a good time, everyone.

-Here's the food. -Cheers.

-Drink up. -He's a VIP and he has a personal waiter.

Isn't he just showing off?

It looks too natural for him to be showing off.

-Do you come here often? -Not recently.

-Why not? -We're busy.

-Doing what? -Treating patients.

You're doctors?

Both of you?

-What kind? -Guess.

A plastic surgeon?

-Why? -You look so chiseled.

-That's wrong. -I'm wrong?

So what kind of doctors are you?

You'll never guess.

-Why not? -Sorry?

Why won't they be able to guess?

Do you look down on Korean medicine too?

Are you saying a Korean medicine doctor isn't even a doctor?

That's not what I meant.

Jae-geol.

Why did you come here? I'm embarrassed.

Are you really?

-What about the girls? -They want you to come back.

They think they can get free tonics for the rest of their lives.

Who said a Korean medicine doctor isn't even a doctor?

My old man.

All dads are like that.

Have you ever seen a dad who's proud of his son?

You're so funny.

Let's go inside.

Why? So you can whine about your sore back tomorrow?

Why worry? You'll perform some acupuncture on me.

Don't be silly.

Let's go back inside.

Gosh. Seriously?

I guess you're all better now.

Is your arm okay?

As you can see.

What are you listening to? Music?

Something like that.

Do you have a favorite genre or singer?

No, I don't.

What are you doing tomorrow?

You're not on the ER shift, right?

Why?

Do you want to go to Maemul Island?

I know a really famous restaurant there.

I don't like famous restaurants.

Their marinated crab is incredible.

You like marinated crab.

Who said I like marinated crab?

You did.

You ate it so deliciously last time.

You even licked your fingers.

You're coming, right?

No. I don't like it enough to go looking for restaurants that serve it.

Maemul Island is close by.

It only takes 30 minutes by boat from Jeogu Port.

Fifteen minutes.

If I can't reach the restaurant in 15 minutes,

I won't go no matter how famous it is.

Just give me 15 more minutes.

I just want to thank you.

For what?

Thanks to you, I'm a real doctor again.

I want to show my appreciation.

Okay then. Tell me what you want.

-I'll grant you anything. -Will you really?

Is there something you want from me?

-Yes. -What is it?

These are...

Do you recognize them?

-They're my surgeries. -That's right.

I took notes on the surgeries you performed.

This is

a replantation surgery I did in Afghanistan.

These were abdominal lacerations

caused by a gunshot in Syria.

LACERATION: A TEAR ON THE ABDOMEN

And this...

-Why? -Pardon?

Why did you take such detailed notes on my surgeries?

Are you heading to an area of conflict?

No.

I haven't thought about that yet.

Then why?

My current place of work sometimes gets

as dangerous as an area of conflict.

I often have to work beyond my field of expertise.

Just like you.

In 21st-century Korea?

Yes, in 21st-century Korea.

-That's why-- -Yes?

I want to learn your techniques.

The journals don't mention enough cases.

Do you keep any private records?

Did you bring your laptop?

Yes.

GUEST FOLDER

Here.

FOLDER PASSWORD

What's the password?

I need it in order to access

the records.

It's 860920.

What?

The password is what?

It's 860920.

Does it have a special meaning?

That password.

It's your birthday.

Goodness, boy. Don't you know your own birthday?

Do you

recognize me?

What kind of a father doesn't recognize his own son?

You're right, Dad.

Hyeon.

-Yes? -What happened to me?

Why did I suddenly return to Korea?

What is this place?

Isn't it nice being outside?

It must've been hard on you, doing this alone.

No. I had Mom too.

I know what your mom is like.

Did I

ever tell you

that I was sorry?

Dad.

I'm sorry.

To tell you the truth,

I couldn't deal with your mom.

She kept telling me to be a competent doctor.

She said I must become a great doctor.

She pushed me so strongly.

As you know,

what she meant was she wanted me to make a lot of money.

Sometimes,

your mom seemed like a witch to me.

To be honest,

I just ran away.

It wasn't because I wanted to become a great doctor...

or because I wanted to devote myself to treating patients.

I knew it was wrong to marry her,

but I wasn't brave enough to break it off.

That's why

I've done you so many wrongs.

You were still a teenager,

but you had to take care of your mom

and comfort your sister,

despite having a perfectly healthy dad.

It must have been hard for you...

to fill in for me.

No.

Not at all, Dad.

Hyeon. Speaking of which,

there is a document I have to sign

while I'm lucid.

Bring it to me, please.

But...

Please let me do it.

I can't let you make that decision for me.

Hyeon.

Were you waiting for me?

No.

I just needed a ride home.

How is your dad?

He went back.

He went back to a place where he can't

recognize me, himself, or anyone else.

It didn't even last a day.

On many days, it doesn't even last five minutes.

Shall we get going?

Do you still want to go to Maemul Island?

You want us to go?

-I'll buy the marinated crab, though. -Why?

Is it because my dad gave you his surgical records?

No.

-Because it's someone's birthday today. -Birthday?

It's 860920.

Is that today?

Let's go.

You're saying you want to wish me

a happy birthday, right?

I want to go somewhere else then.

I didn't know there was a place like this.

It's not so bad getting kicked out and coming to the hospital ship, is it?

You can't find places like this in Seoul.

I guess you come here often.

No, I haven't been here in 20 years.

Shall we take a picture too?

I don't like taking pictures.

Dr. Song.

It's this way, not that way.

Why do you always take the lead when you don't even know the way?

All right, let's go.

Dr. Song.

It's a nice picture with a great background.

September 20th, 2017.

One dazzling second of this moment.

Cheers.

I don't drink during the day because I get drunk easily.

Have just one glass.

Thank you for wishing me a happy birthday.

Don't get ahead of yourself.

If it's too expensive, I'll split the bill.

What do you call two fruits in love?

-I don't know. -A perfect pear.

What do you call a Mexican who lost his car?

Carlos.

What else do I know?

Why is six afraid of seven?

Seven ate nine.

What do you call two fat people having a chat?

A heavy discussion.

Do you know what you call an alligator in a vest?

Do you?

You don't, right?

An investigator.

Dr. Kwak.

Are you laughing because you really think it's funny

or because you're trying not to cry?

Something happened, right?

Something happened at the hospital, right?

This is still here.

I came here with my family 20 years ago.

I was with my dad, my mom,

and my little sister.

Let's take a photo.

-Look over here. Let's take a photo. -Look at the camera.

-Here we go. -Come quickly.

-Blow the bubbles. -Hurry.

-Look at the camera. -Smile.

Smile. One, two.

It was the first and last time

that my family got together

and laughed so much.

We won't have...

the chance to do that anymore.

At the very least,

I don't deserve it.

Did something happen

at the hospital earlier?

-That's... -A consent form.

It's a do-not-resuscitate form.

"Even if you can save my life,

do not resuscitate me."

I was so happy.

He recognized me for the first time in a while,

and his password was my date of birth.

I felt like I was on top of the world.

But then,

my dad asked me once again

to kill him.

No.

It's different.

Asking for morphine

and signing a do-not-resuscitate form are--

I know that.

The problem is...

Do you know what the problem is?

It's that I felt relieved.

I was relieved.

Even if my dad's heart stops,

I don't have to revive him.

-I was relieved. -Dr. Kwak.

Shall I tell you something worse?

I hope

that day comes soon.

I want all this

to end sooner rather than later.

I think I'm this way

because of my dad.

It's not like I'm looking after him all day, every day.

It's only been

two years so far, but...

Want to grab some more drinks?

Why are you laughing?

Am I funny?

No.

I am.

Who would be more frustrated?

A son who's going mad

because of his father with Alzheimer's,

or a daughter who's going mad

because of her totally sane father?

Which is more frustrating?

My dad is

a fraud.

Sorry.

Thank you.

You being by my side is

a great...

comfort to me.

What is this?

What is this sickeningly sweet music you're listening to?

Let's go.

Hey, the light turned green.

What?

Right.

-Hello. -Good morning.

Dr. Song. Good morning.

Why did she...

What's going on? Did they fight again?

That's not the vibe I'm getting.

What are you doing here?

I was waiting for you, of course.

What for?

For my test.

You haven't forgotten,

have you?

SURGERY GUIDELINES

I remembered,

but you didn't?

Is something wrong? This can't be explained by anything

other than a natural disaster.

What's wrong? Tell me.

Dr. Song.

Why are you two sticking around here? Get ready to see patients.

We haven't even set sail yet.

Stop drumming your fingers. It's really annoying.

There's something going on, isn't there?

Are you and Dr. Song seeing each other?

You're disgusting.

Let's talk.

We had a lot to drink yesterday.

We had wine, soju, and beer. All mixed, and over ten bottles of it.

Our blood alcohol level was at least 0.2 percent.

Blood alcohol level?

It's enough to get your driver's license revoked.

It's very possible that we lost control and did something we normally wouldn't.

The alcohol would have also boosted

the excretion of hormones such as

phenylethylamine, oxytocin, and dopamine.

-Therefore-- -Therefore?

What happened yesterday was

an accident caused by the chemical reaction

between alcohol and hormones.

What a relief.

I was worried

that it didn't mean anything to you.

That's exactly it. I'm saying--

You feel nervous and excited, don't you?

You're blaming your hormones because you're flustered.

-I said I'd rather die than go. -Oh dear.

-Get lost. -Watch out.

-Please. -I won't go.

-You must go to the hospital. -You're so full of energy today.

Get out of here right now.

Come to our ship. Acupuncture does wonders on stroke patients.

Please take it easy.

What if he gets a scar on his handsome face?

I'm not that handsome.

Sir!

I'm not going with you.

Hurry.

-Oh dear. -Look at your temperature.

-It's 37.6 degrees. -I won't go with you!

Come on. We're almost there.

Let go!

-I said no! -Come on.

-Sir. -No!

-Help us. -No.

-I said no! -Come on.

-Let me go! -Let's just go.

I will just die here then.

-Oh dear. -Oh dear.

-Fine. -Not again.

Why are you always so stubborn, old man?

We all know Mr. Chu is more stubborn.

-Stand up. -No.

-I told you all that I'm not going! -Let's go.

-Come on, sir. -No!

-Get him in there. Oh dear. -Please.

-I said no! -Doctor.

-We're here. -No!

You can go now. Sorry for scaring you.

We're here. My goodness.

-I said no! I don't want to do it! -All right.

-Watch his arms. -Oh my.

-Oh dear. -Take care of him, Dr. Cha.

-We're off. -Oh no.

Open your mouth wide.

It's an abscess.

We'll give you a shot, numb the area and squeeze out the pus.

Then the swelling and pain will go.

-Prepare the shot. -Okay.

Open your mouth wide.

Come on.

Here comes the shot.

Open wide.

Doctor.

My nose...

Oh no. My nose.

Hey.

What's going on? A war?

You don't have any patients, right?

Before my beautiful nose collapses,

-can you help me? -Go away.

-Come on. -Okay.

I said okay.

-Hold down his arm. -Okay.

Sir, please stay still. I'll hold your arm.

Master Kim?

Gramps.

"Gramps"?

This is where you live, Gramps?

His butler?

Mr. Park Su-bong worked for Dr. Kim's family?

-Yes. -He must be really rich.

What do butlers do?

They drive and tend to the garden.

They do all sorts of odd jobs and errands.

Mr. Park said he served the family

that his father had also served as a farmhand.

So that family was

Dr. Kim's family?

Yes.

What a small world, right?

This is unbelievable.

What brings you here? Is it to get your gown?

Come over more often. You don't visit enough...

-Let's talk. -Where are the keys to the villa?

What do you want them for?

You have no time for hanging out at the villa.

Please give them to me.

Okay, I'll give them to you.

Have one last big party there, then come home.

Why live in a dorm

when you have a house the size of a palace?

Come back and start studying.

Quit Korean medicine and study to be a doctor.

You must inherit your dad's hospital.

The keys.

Do you want to read it again?

-Do you find this fun? -Yes.

Seriously? It really must run in the family.

-Goodness. -You smart kid.

I don't understand a word.

-This is an incredible level. -Is that so?

Do you find this fun?

Seriously? It really must run in the family.

Jae-geol, it flew all the way out to sea!

You're the best, Jae-geol!

One,

two, three.

Let go! You first!

Good. Look at them go!

Where are they going? They're flying towards the sea.

What's missing?

SEAFOOD SOYBEAN STEW

Is it your turn to cook?

What's that?

Let's talk.

This is our workplace.

Come on. The dorm is a private space.

It's provided by the hospital ship,

which makes it an extension of our workplace.

If you say so.

I'm in no mood to joke around. Please be serious.

We're colleagues working on the hospital ship,

and as a doctor, I'm your senior.

This is where we work.

If you want to be more than colleagues,

then we can't even be colleagues anymore, so...

So this is a wall? And I shouldn't climb over it?

Yes.

Okay, if that's what you want.

But remember one thing.

The thing between us could be a door rather than a wall.

You just have to open it and walk through.

I'll be waiting in front of it.

To a daughter who will start to love one day.

From a bad mother who took away

her time to love.

GEOJE 505

I gathered you all here today

so we could celebrate

the smooth recovery of our crewman Kang Jeong-ho

and his return to the hospital ship.

A warm welcome back, Jeong-ho.

Thank you.

Dr. Song, thank you so much.

Thanks to you, I got to hold my child with my own two arms.

Thank you.

Ji-yeon, give her the present.

Thank you so much, Doctor.

-Thank you. -Don't just stand there.

Escort them to the dining hall.

-Come this way. -See you later.

Thank you.

-Welcome back. -Thank you.

Listen up, everyone. There's one more announcement.

-Chun-ho, go and get her. -Okay.

Please come in.

Good.

Let me tell you a few things about her.

She's a painter who studied art in New York.

She's planning to hold a private exhibition in Geoje,

and the theme of her exhibition will be

the hospital ship.

Please introduce yourself to them.

Hello, I'm painter Choi Yeong-eun.

More importantly,

she will donate all the proceeds of her exhibition

to the villagers on the island for their medical treatment.

Let's give her a round of applause.

Thank you.

It's been a long time. I didn't think I'd see you here, Dr. Kwak Hyeon.

Right.

She's so pretty.

How do you know her? What's your relationship to her?

Why are you so curious about everything?

If you're so free, go and read the patients' charts.

Don't make mistakes and get scolded again.

Why are you getting angry?

-Nurse Pyo. -What is it now?

Who do you think she is? How do they know each other?

Why are you so curious?

Could she be my rival?

What do you mean?

Didn't I tell you?

I like Dr. Kwak.

What?

Why?

He's sexy.

When he saved the patient inside the bus,

I knew he was the one.

He's the Dr. Greene I've been looking for--

Gosh, Nurse Yoo. You have a sickness.

What do you mean?

You were crying a few days ago

over your boyfriend who cheated on you,

and you're already in love again?

That's actually why I fell in love.

A new love is the best medicine for a broken heart.

It's like a bandage.

"It's like a bandage."

Nurse Pyo. I'm serious.

GEOJE 505

May I take a look...

Ma'am, could I take a look at your arm?

I need to see it first in order to treat it.

Why did you come here if you're not going to listen to us?

Can't you speak Korean?

Or...

Do you or don't you?

What's going on?

It looks like she's hurt her arm, but she won't speak.

She's speaking right now.

Oh, right.

Why are you refusing treatment?

I didn't come here for me.

For who, then?

My son is sick.

Where is your son?

At home.

Don't worry.

I can help your child.

Where is your house?

There it is.

That face.

The face of my man that I missed so much.

What do you mean, "my man"?

You didn't know?

Dr. Kwak and I are engaged.

There's nothing in this room. I'll sleep in Hyeon's room.

As far as I know, they're symptoms of lovesickness.

Do I mean nothing to you?

So you're just avoiding him?

I suspect a myocardial infarction.

Call the Coast Guard. Tell them to send a helicopter.

Wake up, Mom. Mom!

What have you done for your mom?

It's because he's her son.

It's hard to think like a doctor when it's your family.
