[The characters, groups, places and situations in this drama are fictional.]

Chief Director, Chairman Choi of Hanwoong Group is here.

In what way is your daughter sick?

She has had juvenile diabetes since she was little.

So she currently needs both a kidney and a pancreas transplant.

With transplants, finding an organ donor is more challenging

than the surgery itself.

That's why I came to talk to you, Chief Director.

Doesn't she need a simultaneous kidney and pancreas transplant?

We can't do that.

We shouldn't perform such an arduous surgery.

The truth is, she's the daughter of a man I worked with for 40 years.

Please think it over once more.

Haven't you ever thought that an illegal organ trade could be taking place

inside this hospital?

Choi Gyung Nam.

- Aren't you Choi Gyung Nam? - Pardon?

But, Dad.

Usually, when you call someone's name, they respond right away.

But he didn't respond when I called his name

and it's weird that he's here without a guardian.

- Who are you talking about? - Choi Gyung Nam.

I need you to go to this address.

Go and check if that patient is really Choi Gyung Nam.

Sun Mi, don't worry. It will all turn out well.

- Do you live here? - Yes. Why do you ask?

Do you know Choi Gyung Nam?

Yes, that's me. But who are you?

Then is your older brother Hanwoong Group's Choi Jin Seo...

If that's why you're here, just go.

I stopped caring a long time ago.

[Episode 9]

He's in surgery right now.

No, that's okay. Hand it over.

- Hey. - Dad.

The real Choi Gyung Nam is here.

Okay, good work.

- Today's surgery is cancelled. - Pardon?

What?

Patient Choi Sun Mi's simultaneous transplant...

is cancelled.

Stop the surgery right now.

Center Chief!

Why was the surgery stopped? Why did you cancel it all of a sudden?

The donor's identity was forged.

Pardon?

Keep quiet until I find definite evidence.

What? The surgery was cancelled?

Why, all of a sudden?

Who made that decision?

I don't know the details either. I just know it was Center Chief's orders.

What on earth do you know?

- I apologize. - Damn it.

In the end, did this punk really...

Are you still following him?

Damn it, he was right in front of me a second ago.

You lost him?

Yeah, it turned out that way.

- He caught you, you bastard. - What?

What are you doing? Call him right now.

- Yes, Sir? - Hey, Twat.

Stop right there!

Jump!

- Jump, you son of a bitch! - Hurry!

Hurry up!

Let's go.

Damn it!

Geez, that persistent son of a bitch.

Boss, should we just dissect him today?

He's expensive. Don't you know how much he's worth?

Wait, the contact book. The contact book!

The contact book.

Oh, I knew I could count on you, Boss!

Hey, if you lose that book one more time, I'll put your name in it.

Hey, that's a bit harsh for a joke.

Does it sound like I'm joking?

[Sunrim Hospital]

[Sunrim Hospital, Room 1203, Choi Gyung Nam]

Why did you stop the surgery?

Why did you cancel it without our permission?

Is there another reason you're interested in this surgery?

What did you say?

I'm asking if it's because she's Hanwoong Group CEO's daughter.

That's right. If she wasn't the daughter of Hanwoong Group

I wouldn't care about this surgery.

So what?

I already told you, didn't I?

I told you, she's the daughter of a man I worked with for 40 years!

Then, what about Patient Noh Jin Tae?

Why are you bringing him up all of a sudden?

What does he have to do with this?

I'm asking because he has something to do with this.

You personally requested both of the surgeries yourself

and the donors for both patients falsely claimed to be their relatives.

Fa... falsely?

Did you really have no idea?

Wait, why are you asking me that?

- Ask the transplant center! - All I know

is that Choi Sun Mi's donor is a fake.

Although I don't know who is involved in this and in what way.

In... involved?

Wait, are you suggesting...

that I could be involved in this matter?

Is that what you're saying?

I'm sure we'll find out, soon enough.

Look here, Doctor Go!

If you ask me, you're more suspicious than I am.

Who's the one that knows the most about the transplant center's matters?

Isn't it you?

Director, I think we need to get the disciplinary committee together.

It's related to Center Chief Go and the transplant center.

I want to know how they're managing their donors.

Apparently, they almost performed a surgery

without knowing that the donor's identity was forged!

Yes, that's why he cancelled the surgery!

Patient Choi Sun Mi's surgery!

What are you still doing here?

The social welfare department checked these forms

and so did we.

What do you mean it was forged?

Okay, I'll check it again.

Coordinator Go, where are you right now?

I'm on my way back right now.

I'll be back in an hour.

You checked Choi Sun Mi's forms too, didn't you?

- Why do you ask? - The center chief and our center

will be evaluated by the disciplinary committee because of that.

What did you say? Okay, I'll be back soon.

I barely managed to convince her to undergo surgery.

If we run into any obstacles, she could refuse to do it!

I'm really sorry, Chairman.

I'll make sure that your daughter gets the surgery as soon as possible.

But... before that

I need you to help me with something.

- Oh, I'm sorry. - What's wrong with you, Mister?

What's with this guy?

[Sunrim Hospital, Choi Gyung]

[Choi Gyung]

Why are you here, Doctor Kang?

Was this patient discharged?

I asked you what you were doing here.

He was here to donate an organ, wasn't he?

How did you know that?

Did the surgery take place already?

It was cancelled.

Was the patient in Room 1203 discharged?

Why do you ask?

He's not in his room, and he took off his hospital gown.

Really? That can't be.

He was just there a minute ago.

Doctor Kang, where are you going?

The patient in Room 1203 was sent here by Kim Hyung Bum.

- What's the matter? - It's nothing.

Do you feel sick?

Don't worry about it.

What do you mean, Kim Hyung Bum sent him here?

I know you didn't believe me

but Kim Hyung Bum is illegally supplying donors to someone in this hospital.

This is the evidence.

[Sunrim Hospital, Room 1203, Choi Gyung Nam]

Where did you find this?

I followed them to their hideout and found it there.

Followed? Are you saying that you followed Kim Hyung Bum alone?

- Yes. - Are you in your right mind?

You have Choi Gyung Nam's patient information, don't you?

Even if I do, I can't give it to an outsider.

You won't be able to deny that illegal deals are taking place in this hospital

for much longer.

If you remain an onlooker, that will make you their accomplice.

All I know

is that Choi Sun Mi's donor is a fake.

Although I don't know who is involved in it and in what way.

Involved?

Wait, are you suggesting...

that I could be involved in this matter?

Is that what you're saying?

Like you said, someone in this hospital...

is turning a blind eye to the deals that are taking place.

- Who is it? - I only have circumstantial evidence.

I'm sure there's someone you suspect!

If you're that curious, find him yourself.

Come into our hospital and find him yourself!

I was the one who decided to cancel today's surgery.

As a result, I'll be put on trial before the disciplinary committee.

I might even have to step down from my position.

So this could be your last chance to join our hospital.

I'm begging you.

Come and work at our hospital.

I just need to find Choi Gyung Nam then.

If I want to catch Kim Hyung Bum and keep you from being punished.

[Sunrim Hospital, Room 1203, Choi Gyung Nam]

This is Kang In Kyu. Did you find the patient in Room 1203?

No. Why?

Let's meet at the cafe. I have something to tell you.

Okay.

- What would you like? - An Americano.

Two Americanos, please.

I respect the center chief, but there must be a reason why

he's been called in front of the disciplinary committee

twice in one one month.

Hm, I guess you're right.

Excuse me.

Don't you think that it's wrong for the hospital

to gather the disciplinary committee before finding out the truth?

I'm sorry. I didn't know you were there.

Is it okay to say that if I'm not here then?

- That's not what I meant-- - This is the hospital's matter.

This issue pertains to the entire hospital, not just the transplant center.

If something's suspicious, we should expose it.

In the end, our patients are the ones to suffer.

I got it. I'm sorry for speaking so carelessly.

I apologize.

What's the matter?

It's nothing.

You want me to give you Choi Gyung Nam's information?

- Yes. - I can't.

I can't share a patient's information to an outsider.

Shouldn't we prevent Center Chief's trial before the disciplinary committee?

Answer this first then.

How did you know to come looking for Choi Gyung Nam?

You know about the donor fraud, didn't you?

- Yes. - How?

I can't tell you that.

Then I can't give you the patient's information.

I'll look into it myself then.

Do you...

suspect that my dad is involved in this, by any chance?

Wait, why can't you answer me?

I thought you lived with him for five years.

I know that he's not the type to do such a thing.

But illegal acts are taking place without his knowledge.

I can't just let that happen.

Here.

That's the real Choi Gyung Nam's information.

It will be hard to find him with just that though.

[Choi Gyung Nam]

- Oh, I'm sorry. - What's with this guy?

[Web Message - 21,300 won paid to Hakwoon Transport.]

Where are you going? As I said, it will be hard to find him with just that.

First, we should get the real Choi Gyung Nam as a witness

to prevent disciplinary action--

Don't you get it?

- Get what? - They've already caught on.

If we go looking for the real Choi Gyung Nam, we won't find him.

Pardon?

Wait, then...

No... no way.

Wait for me!

I have to find him too.

For my dad.

This man just took the taxi that brought me here.

Let's get going now.

You were the one who wanted to come to this hospital.

So why are we transferring to a different hospital?

Just trust me.

I was referred to a good doctor, so let's give it one more try, okay?

I told you that I didn't want to undergo surgery.

I'm okay with dialysis, why are you taking it so far?

I'm sorry.

For putting you through so much.

But you endured it well until now.

Do you recognize him?

- I'm not sure. - Please think about it carefully.

He took your taxi from Sunrim Hospital.

Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Oh, I remember now. He cut in front of someone else.

Yes, I just got out.

I'm on my way home now.

Yes... but when will the surgery take place?

Oh, sure. I got it.

I'll be waiting.

He told someone on the phone that he was on his way home

but I don't remember anything else.

Where did he get off?

If you go up 500 meters from the back alley behind Seoul City Hall

you'll find Sooneung Supermarket. That's where he got off.

- How much is it? - 2,000 won.

Great, thank you.

By any chance...

do you know this man?

Dong Hwan's dad?

His son is a regular customer here.

- You must know where he lives then. - Of course I do!

But why do you ask?

I'm a nurse, and--

Oh, you must be here for Dong Hwan's mom!

If you go that way, you'll find Samil Villa.

- They live on the first floor. - Okay, thank you.

I found out where he lives.

This must be it.

[Unpaid Payment, Urgent Bill Notice]

Kim Chul Ho...

Kim Chul Ho.

Is anyone home?

Kim Chul Ho!

We're here to help! Please open up!

Wh... who are you?

I'm sorry I ran away.

But I had no other choice.

I know. I'm sure you had your reasons.

But the situation is too serious to hide out like this.

Are you going to report me?

You have the broker's contact information, don't you?

Pardon?

Didn't you leave the hospital because of their call?

I won't report you if you give me their contact information.

Then what about the disciplinary action against my dad?

There's no better evidence than the broker who bought Kim Chul Ho.

Memorize it, so you can answer them automatically.

Okay.

If you report me or try anything...

I'll sell you and your family off.

I'll cut your entire family open.

I... I can't tell you.

I... I really can't tell you.

Did they threaten you?

This isn't something you can avoid.

15 years ago...

the head of a family was killed.

- I'll be back. - Make lots of money, okay?

Dad.

Like you, he took the offer because he needed money...

but he was found one month later, with his organs extracted.

You know who killed that head of a household?

It was the broker you're in contact with now.

Pardon?

That's how I know.

I know what a dangerous situation you're in right now.

Th... then, what should I do?

They said that they'd sell me and my family off if I said anything.

I'll help you.

Doctor Kang!

I know of a way.

Trust me.

Kim Chul Ho.

I'll take the responsibility.

This...

is his phone number.

Call him and ask him to meet you immediately.

- Pardon? - I'll meet him instead.

The number you dialed does not exist.

Th... that's weird. Th... this is his number.

Ho... hold on.

The number you dialed does not exist.

I'm... I'm telling the truth.

I'm not lying, I swear.

Dad! Mom...

Honey. Honey!

Honey, what's wrong this time?

Honey, wake up.

Let me take a look.

Mom...

- We need to take her to a hospital. - Pardon?

Honey.

Honey.

- Um... - Oh, please stay home.

If you come, it will make things difficult for us.

I'll call you once we arrive at the hospital.

Please take care of my wife.

- Don't worry. - Get in!

The broker will contact you again. Please let me know when he does.

Okay.

Are you really going to go through the trouble of transferring hospitals?

I'm deeply ashamed.

I shut my little brother's mouth, just like you told me to.

But I still feel anxious for some reason.

Chairman, please don't worry.

Wait.

I'll take full responsibility for cleaning up the mess

of Sun Mi's surgery.

The poor's specialty is finding a fault and getting something out of it.

I have to be careful at a time like this.

Chairman, I'll make sure

that no harm comes to you.

If a problem does occur...

I'll take the fall for all of it.

I'm thinking of recruiting another resident.

- What do you think? - All of a sudden?

I'd like that, but will it be okay?

Is there a problem?

Do you have someone in mind, by any chance?

Yeah.

It's someone you all know, including the nurses.

Doctor Kang In Kyu.

By Doctor Kang In Kyu, do you mean the doctor from that liver transplant?

That's right.

Was Doctor Kang a resident?

- Yeah. - Did you already make up your mind?

As long as you all approve.

I approve. I'd welcome a skilled resident doctor like him.

- Anyone else? - I'd like that. I'd like that.

Yeah, I like it.

He was two hours late for the donor exchange surgery.

He seems to lack a sense of responsibility and talent.

What would you have done if you were in that situation?

If you found someone in critical condition right before a surgery?

I bet you wouldn't have ignored her either.

In surgery rooms, other doctors can take over

but on the streets, that one doctor is the patient's only hope.

If that's why he was late, then I also approve.

Center Chief!

Why is it Doctor Kang of all people?

It's not just because he was late for the surgery.

It's also strange that he quit right before he was about to become

a specialist. I just don't...

have a good feeling about him.

I know what you're concerned about

but since everyone approved, let's give him a chance.

He's okay once you get to know him.

Since she's at risk for hypoglycemic shock

please inject it slowly, at 50 millimeters per minute.

Sure.

She's past the critical stage, so she'll get better soon.

Thank you.

What will you do now?

You told Kim Chul Ho that you'd take responsibility.

Does that broker have anything to do with Kim Hyung Bum, who escaped prison?

Yes.

And the head of a family you talked about earlier...

That's right.

Then, I guess the fact that you work at Shingwang Prison

is no coincidence.

- That's right. - Is it for revenge?

Yes.

But...

I also want to take care of Kim Chul Ho.

I'm afraid that he'll turn out like my father.

Damn it.

Boss, what should we do about Kim Chul Ho?

- Should I get someone else? - Just keep him.

But everyone saw his face already.

- I thought they changed hospitals. - Yeah.

If we use someone else, we'll have to shut two mouths.

Don't make things complicated, just finish it with one guy.

Okay.

You found the fake Choi Gyung Nam? How?

We found him thanks to Doctor Kang's help...

but his family isn't doing so well.

I'm not surprised. That's probably why he made that decision.

And his wife is very ill.

We went there to find Kim Chul Ho, but found her in a hepatic coma

so we rushed her to the hospital.

A hepatic coma?

I saw jaundice in her eyes and ascites in her abdomen.

We'll need to take a CT to know the details

but she could also have liver cancer in the worst case scenario.

That's why I'd like to ask...

that you complete a through medical examination.

- At this hospital? - Yes.

Doctor Kang, what's wrong with you?

Did you forget that my dad is being punished because of him?

I'm aware of that.

But there won't be any problems as long as Kim Chul Ho doesn't come here.

Ji In, can you wait outside?

I need to talk to him alone.

Okay.

I want you to come work at our hospital and treat that patient.

Whether or not you look for people who are connected to Kim Hyung Bum

is up to you.

If you join us, I'll help you so that she can get a full examination.

By that, do you mean that you don't care about what I do?

I trust you.

Look at you right now. You went there to find Kim Hyung Bum

but you couldn't ignore a sick patient, so you brought her here.

That's who you really are.

If your goal is to prevent more victims

from suffering what your father went through...

I can help you.

I got it. But I'm only doing this for my own needs.

It's not for you or for that patient.

Don't misunderstand.

- Will it be okay? - What do you mean?

You were forwarded to the disciplinary committee because of him

so I'm worried about leaving his wife at this hospital.

We're just watching over her condition right now.

We'll make a decision once we see her test results.

Did you... find a place to stay?

I'll have to start looking.

What about your son?

I plan on leaving him with his grandmother.

- Am I going to Grandma's? - Yeah.

What about Mom?

Son, you know that your mom is sick, right?

- Yeah. - Mom...

will be treated by this doctor.

So listen to everything Grandma says, okay?

- Okay. - Promise?

Promise. Stamp. Copy.

Mister, please make my mom better.

Promise?

If you take good care of In Joo, I'll buy you a nicer pair next time.

- Really? - Really.

You punk.

Stamp.

Copy.

- It's this way. - Okay.

As you know, you can't be at the hospital

and your home is dangerous since they might come looking for you.

I see.

It might be a little uncomfortable, but please stay here for now.

I spend most of my time at the hospital anyway, so you won't see me around.

I'm sorry to inconvenience you like this.

Please put your bag down.

Then... please get some rest.

Thank you.

Thank you, Doctor.

15 years ago...

the head of a household was killed.

Like you, he took the offer because he needed the money...

but he was found one month later, with his organs extracted.

Do you know who killed that head of a household?

It was the broker you're in contact with right now.

[Restricted Number]

This is Doctor Kang In Kyu, who'll start working here today.

Let me formally introduce myself.

I'm Kang In Kyu, and I'm in my fourth year of residency.

Okay, a round of applause.

- Oh, Doctor Ha. - Yes?

Since you're also in your fourth year of residency

answer any questions he might have.

He might've visited the surgery room a few times

but he doesn't know anything about this hospital's system.

I'll do that.

It's nice to meet you, Doctor Kang. I am Team Leader Jo of the transplant center.

It's nice to meet you.

Congratulations on being released from prison.

If I had known, I would've bought you some tofu.

(People meeting those just released from prison bring them tofu for luck.)

I hope we can work well together.

I hope so too.

[Kang In Kyu]

Yes?

Hey, come here.

Although there are only two tumors, their locations are unfavorable.

One can be removed pretty easily

but the other one is too deep.

If we remove the affected areas, there will be almost nothing left

so regeneration would be impossible.

That’s right. It will progress to liver failure right away.

Then... a transplant is the only way.

That's right.

But thankfully, even though there are multiple tumors

they are smaller than three centimeters

so a transplant would be possible if a donor can be found.

Kim Chul Ho?

The person you called is not available, please--

[Doctor Kang In Kyu]

Answer it.

The person you called is not available, please--

That's okay.

We set another date for the surgery.

The recipient is the same, but she was transferred to a different hospital.

To Myungin Hospital.

[March 1st, Myungin Hospital, Room 1702]

[Myungin Hospital]

Kim Chul Ho.

Kim Chul Ho.

[Kim Chul Ho]

The phone is turned off, you'll be redirected to voicemail

and the charges will be applied...

[March 1st, Myungin Hospital, Room 1702]

You'll do it, right?

What brings you here?

Hello, I'm Center Chief Go Jung Hoon from Sunrim Hospital's transplant center.

I'm here because I have something to say to this patient.

[Cross]

Where are you right now?

I'm sorry, Doctor. This won't end until I die.

Father, aren't you even embarrassed?

It's not embarrassing to be cowardly. It's embarrassing to be incapable.

Are you really going to perform the surgery?

Perform the surgery, Doctor Kang.

I'll kill you today. I'll make you feel pure agony.

I'll show you what real pain is.
