ALL CHARACTERS, NAMES, ORGANIZATIONS,
AND EVENTS ARE FICTITIOUS

ANY RESEMBLANCE IS PURELY COINCIDENTAL

FINALE

If you want to die,
jump in front of someone else's car!

With whom will you fight?

What are you trying to do?

You know a way, don't you?

What are you doing? Move your car!

That jerk.

Move it!

You said you'd fight as well.

Against whom will you fight?

What bullshit are you talking about?

Is it going to be us?

Or Chairman Cho Nam-hyeong?

Are you blind?

Did you forget who I was?

"A way"? For what?

And why do I have to be answering
your question?

I'm asking you to be human for once.

I want to know how you think of all this

as an ordinary person,
not as a businessman.

Do you really not care about
what's happening in there?

Do you feel no compunction at all?

About what?

All you doctors love money.

Once you open your own practice,

you do whatever it takes to make
more money, so why not here?

Because it's too big?

You punks are opposing

because it's bothersome to you.

Because you find change bothersome!

All you care about is money.

That's why you can't see what result
Chairman Cho's decision will bring us.

What result will it bring?

Have you ever been
to amusement parks abroad?

I'm getting sick of this.

Apparently, they sell VIP tickets.

If you have that,
it doesn't matter how long the line is.

Even if others have to wait in line
for hours,

as long as you have the VIP tickets

that you paid some extra money for,

you can skip the line
and get on the ride first.

Schools, hospitals, and streets...

Everyone should be
allowed access to those.

Even if people are born
with different backgrounds,

there must be places
where they can mingle.

That's how you coexist!

Hospitals aren't the equivalent of
expensive sports cars.

They aren't palaces
regular people can't dream of entering.

Chairman Cho is saying
that he'll open the doors of this hospital

only to people holding VIP tickets.

Is that the world
you truly want to live in?

Is that...

the kind of world
you want your future child

to live in?

Tell them

to coexist elsewhere.

You have less freedom
than my brother, Mr. Gu.

To whom does your soul belong?

Does it belong to the chairman as well?

Are you that worried?

It's not the hospital I'm worried about.
I'm saying this

for the company and for you, sir.

People are saying we retracted
the business plan

only to divert public attention
from our profit motive.

If we make a rash move
to amend the medical law,

we could face negative consequences.

If it's too difficult to amend the law,

we should make the hospital
lose its status.

I constantly see hospitals getting
stripped of their status on the news.

That's because those hospitals
committed serious medical errors

and failed to pass the evaluation.

"Medical errors"? That's it.

That's how we can bring Sangkook down.

If it loses its designation
as a general hospital,

I can freely change its entity type.

Mr. Cho.

We can't lose the designation that easily.

That isn't possible.

-Mr. Gu.
-Yes, sir.

Who is this "we"

you keep mentioning?

You and I?

Or you and Sangkook?

-Of course--
-You've changed.

-That's not true.
-You're telling me indirectly

that I should keep my hands off
the matter.

You're only pretending to worry about me.

I'm simply saying there's no need
for you to be the scapegoat.

All the corporations that own hospitals

will try to use the same strategy as us,
using you as an excuse.

Don't let them do that.

Just like you're using me
as an excuse right now

in order to defy me, right?

Forget it.

I'll make the decision.

Wait for my orders.

INTRANET
1 NEW ANNOUNCEMENT

Where are you off to so early?

ANNOUNCEMENT OF PERSONNEL CHANGE

AFFILIATION: SANGKOOK UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL
TITLE: PRESIDENT

NAME: GU SEUNG-HYO

REVOCATION OF APPOINTMENT
DUE TO TERMINATION

GROUNDS:
BROUGHT THE ORGANIZATION INTO DISREPUTE

ISSUED BY SANGKOOK UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL
RESTRUCTURE TEAM

REVOCATION OF APPOINTMENT
DUE TO TERMINATION

GROUNDS:
BROUGHT THE ORGANIZATION INTO DISREPUTE

Post it on the hospital intranet.

Mr. Gu.

I think it was decided ever since

the chairman decided
you'd make the announcement

and he'd fix it.

GROUNDS:
BROUGHT THE ORGANIZATION INTO DISREPUTE

THE POST HAS BEEN UPLOADED SUCCESSFULLY

The president was fired?

He has been eager to lay people off.
Serves him right.

You're right.

People say the heart is a fickle thing.

When he was attacking us left and right
using his authority,

I hated him so much, but...

Are you sad that he's leaving?

I'm just saying that
because even the president is dispensable.

What did he do to piss off the higher-ups?

You punks are opposing

because it's bothersome to you.

Because you find change bothersome!

Something doesn't feel right.

ANNOUNCEMENT OF PERSONNEL CHANGE

Deputy Director, are you in?

-Yes.
-Come to the director's office.

Yes?

Regarding medical errors...

Let's perform an inspection.

They stayed on their toes
only in the beginning.

The number of medication errors
is increasing.

Prescription and preparation errors
should be prevented too,

so you two should oversee the process

before we impose disciplinary actions
on them.

Monitor and manage them closely.

Okay. I got that, but...

What?

I saw the announcement.

It just happened that way.

Without a reason?

In privately owned corporations,
the chairman owns

even the air
that you breathe in the office.

It's what the owner wants.

Anyway, the inspection is unrelated
to my termination,

so get it ready.

If that wasn't a poker face,

he's got to have a deal in place
with Chairman Cho.

I guess...

we're next.

The entire hospital
will be the next target.

Yes, Ms. Kang.

What is it?

Did something happen last night?

Why?

Mr. Gu was removed from office.

Where is he going this time?

He was fired, not transferred.

Why?

Act like you don't know for now.

Did he go straight home last night?

Actually, he went to the headquarters
on his way home.

That late at night?
Did the chairman call for him?

No. It didn't seem like it.

It looked like the talks didn't go well
with the chairman.

-Why do you say that?
-He came out pretty much right away.

I'd like to continue working for Mr. Gu.

He must like it here too.

I'm sure he doesn't care much
about where he works at, but...

Still, this is where he met someone
he was interested in for the first time.

He did?

Are you talking about the pretty
pediatrician with the round face and eyes?

He didn't say anything himself.

Of course, he didn't.

But why? Why did you think that?

Remember when things got messy?

After the whole autopsy thing.

Yes.

He said to make sure
nothing happened to her,

-so I followed her after work--
-Hold on.

Mr. Gu told you to do that?

To protect Dr. Lee No-eul?

Yes, that was her name.

Oh, gosh.

Why are you in someone else's
empty office?

Well, why weren't you at your desk?

You're not at your desk either.

Well, I...

The chairman has sent
several instructions for me to relay.

He says you should take the blame
for the announcement and step down.

He says he can't entrust a business
to you anymore.

He says to refuse to give interviews
and an exit speech

and to leave as soon as possible.

When can you leave?

I'll let him know
that you will follow his instructions.

GLUTTON: CAN WE TALK?

Mr. Lee!

Why did Restructure team
issue the president's dismissal notice?

I didn't write it.

I did what the HR department
told me to do.

Hey, Ms. Kang.

"Hey, Ms. Kang"?

I'm sad to see you go.

It's hard to find an employee like you.

Why would you need an employee like me?

You never know what will happen.

What nonsense--

Ms. Kang.

Director Lee Hyeon-gyun
of Restructure Team.

Yes?

You started out as an assistant,
worked your way up

to Business Team,
and ended up in Restructure Team.

Your career history within the company
is identical to mine.

Whether the future will be the same
depends on your abilities,

but here's the thing.

If you act like you're holding something
you don't even have yet, your arrogance...

will cost you opportunities
that are in front of you.

I told you, this is a no smoking zone.

Says who? I changed the rule.

Take care of your health.

If you end up here from smoking that,
the doctors will fight over

who gets to cut you open.

When are you leaving?

Once I finish some stuff.

Looks like you have a lot to take care of.

What do you think it'll be like
after you're gone?

Patients will come and go,

get their treatment,

but not all will be saved.
The usual, I guess.

Things could change
for the better or worse.

But it'll never be like what it used to be
before you took over.

It's hard to know how Mr. Gu's leaving
will affect us later on.

I don't know what more we'll be made
to face during our time here.

If Chairman Cho starts to interfere
with the hospital,

I know that will mean trouble, but...

Is there any way to stop him?

I wish we had
"One Country, Two Systems" agreement

in place like China and Hong Kong do.

With that in place, Sangkook
will remain a part of Hwajeong Group,

but its independence will be guaranteed.

We need something like that.

There's no way they'd guarantee that.

The biggest problem is
that they want to privatize the hospital.

What should we do?

It's not like they'll listen to us.

Should we just use Mr. Gu?

It's not like he's going somewhere better.

Let's oppose his dismissal.

He must be pissed off too.

We all know he worked hard.

"Chairman apologizing on TV
was all an act."

If Mr. Gu says that himself,
it'll be super effective.

We voted for his dismissal.
It would make us look stupid.

Be that as it may,

there's no way he'll do such a thing.

Don't you know him?

How could we know what he's like?

All we did was fight
and glare at each other the whole time.

Seriously...

That's literally all we did.

Should we hold a press conference?

The public will feel for us, right?

At least some NGO will.

Would that really help us though?

We have been whining about
how we always operate in the red.

You can't call it "whining."
We were stating the truth.

Exactly. If Hwajeong says they'll get
a foreign investment worth billions of won

for a hospital that's always in the red,

they'll make it look like
they're bringing in foreign capital.

If they keep bringing in foreign funds,
the government will eventually approve

privatization of the hospital.

It's not like we can prevent them
from designating

the area as a special economic zone,
can we?

Once they submit
a new medical business plan to MOTIE

and reappraise the Songtan region...

What? Is it that simple
in local governments?

What local government would say no
to such an opportunity?

We have nothing to lose.

Why don't we at least ask Mr. Gu?

Since when have we

discussed something like this
during our meetings?

We haven't talked about
patients' health even for a second.

Our chief is still in the meeting, too.

Those damned meetings.

I wouldn't complain if those meetings
have ever been productive.

What?

Ms. Kim.

Wait for us.

Eun-ha, did you drive?

No.

Do you want a ride?

They're still there.

I can't believe the president is
just leaving after making all the mess.

He never should've come here
in the first place.

I know, right?

He never should've come here.

He's leaving, as you wish.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Ms. Kang!

See you tomorrow.

Are you okay?

You don't look...

I'm fine.

You'll stay on with us, right?

I don't know.

If you're not sure either,

I guess he's really leaving.

Do you really think it'd have been better
if Mr. Gu had never come here

to begin with?

Sorry?

It's not about me.
He got nothing good out of it.

I'm sure his time here
has been a nightmare for him.

But you know...

I should go.

What is it?

That's what I want to ask you.
What's wrong with you?

What do you mean?

The two of you on the roof that day...

You and Mr. Gu just ran into each other,

right?

I don't even recall that.

You don't know him, right?

You couldn't possibly know Mr. Gu, right?

Why must I not know him?

Because he's the president?

Mr. Sunwoo...

I do know him.
In fact, I know Mr. Gu very well.

We both got college degrees
thanks to Hwajeong's scholarships.

Is that a problem?

Don't tell me...

Did you tell him

about us and about the hospital?

Like what?

That all the doctors are douchebags,

and that the nurses
are constantly berating each other?

He knew without my telling him.

What's wrong with you?

Are we the only ones at fault?

What?

It's not like anyone forced you
to berate one another, is it?

That's because we're all burned out.

Each nurse is responsible for
dozens of patients.

They won't hire more nurses,
and our shifts keep coming.

That's the root cause
of all the problems here.

If work wasn't so hectic,
why would we be at each other's throats?

Let's get one thing straight.

In the army, the tougher the training,

the stronger the camaraderie.

They know well enough how much shit
everyone's going through, which is why

they don't get on each other's nerves.

So? Did you latch onto Mr. Gu
because you hated us?

No. Because my life sucked.

Because it was crap.

Having to come in every single day
to a place I detested...

made me sick to my stomach.

Still, this is where he met someone
he was interested in for the first time.

I'm sure his time here
has been a nightmare for him.

He said to make sure
nothing happened to her...

He never should've come here.

He says he can't entrust a business
to you anymore.

He says to refuse to give interviews
and an exit speech.

There are no records or documents.

It's not that she won't give it to us.
The headquarters handled it,

so Ms. Kang doesn't have anything either.

But she said it was true
that Songtan was chosen

because of the environmental fine
imposed on Hwajeong Steel.

How can we get back at Hwajeong

with just circumstantial evidence?

What has ever caused damage
to a chairman of a corporation?

There's no such thing.

Nothing can damage them.

We need to crush them with one swift blow.

Why don't we bring it to someone
who can overpower Chairman Cho?

Who would be capable of that?

-Hello, sir.
-Call the director

and the asshole deputy director.

What is it, sir?

I'll kill them.

Neither of them is in the hospital.
They're out...

I'll go find them, sir.

Was it you? Did you do it?

No, sir.

Do you know what I'm talking about?

Does this mean you knew?

I don't know what you are referring to,

but I didn't do anything
that could harm you.

Kim Seok-hyeon called me, all worked up,

saying someone from the hospital
came to see him.

They said they'd go public about
how we purchased the land from him

at a higher price.

They had the exact figures, methods,
dates, and everything.

The hospital director and deputy director

went to see the Minister of Environment?

If they had come to me
or blabbed it to the media,

I would have taken care of it quietly.

But that stupid Minister is freaking out

in case something happens to him!

Why did they go to him?

They wouldn't have gone to him
if what they wanted was to expose it.

The director must have demanded something.

They want me to take my hands off
the hospital management.

They asked for the impossible.

Is that all you have to say?

Who could've leaked it?

How did they find out?

Who else knows the exact amount
other than you...

How do you think the Minister will respond

if you don't grant their request?

You call that a question?
Obviously, he'll bring up the fine again.

Mind you, it's 160 billion won!

What is your plan, sir?

Shit.

It's not like I can rat him out
by saying I bribed him.

You should give the hospital

what they want, sir.

It's impossible to make the owner
stay out of the management duties.

You can agree to do as they wish,

but nothing will change for you.

I'm not the real owner here yet.

Those doctor punks are challenging me

because they know that even though
I'm the owner, I can't control them.

Bring me everyone involved. Now.

Mr. Cho.

Please let me resolve the matter
between the hospital and the Ministry.

Let me do that
as my last item of business. Please, sir.

So that you can disappoint me
one last time?

What you did so far wasn't enough?

LEASE AGREEMENT

LESSEE: HWAPYEONG-RI COOPERATIVE
REPRESENTATIVE: KIM BYEONG-SU

You can announce that Hwajeong Group
provided a place to live

for people who got kicked out
of state-owned land.

Even if the land deal becomes a problem,

you can make it look like we're exercising
corporate social responsibility.

This isn't enough.

It can stop the land scandal,
but not the Minister.

He's already pissed off
that the Songtan matter got out.

He'll try to control us.

The Minister doesn't want people
to find out why his parents

ended up living in the state-owned land
more than anything.

As long as you have this,

he won't be able to act rashly.

What do you want for it?

The director wants me out of her hair.

What do you want in exchange for this?

Mr. Cho.

Please don't tear the hospital apart.

Please...

don't make it fall apart, sir.

Do you think that would change anything?

I've never seen anyone
give up on an opportunity for more money.

I've never once seen them
overcome their greed for money.

All hospitals will end up becoming
one of the two.

A place for people who have money
to burn on health care

and a place where people
who can't afford to do the same go.

Wait for just ten, no, five years

to see what Sangkook University Hospital
will be like.

See which it turns into.

I heard Chairman Cho was here.

We thought you shouldn't know

that we were going to
the Ministry of Environment.

We did want to tell you
in advance regardless,

but that's all meaningless now, isn't it?

It worked.

Did Chairman Cho agree
to give up on privatizing the hospital?

That Minister denied it to our faces,

but he was in collusion with Chairman Cho.

He overpaid for the land to avoid
the environmental fine, didn't he?

Director Oh.

The hospital and Hwajeong

are holding each other's detonator.

The one Sangkook is holding

is only effective
while the Minister is in office.

Once he steps down, there isn't much
a former politician can do

to Hwajeong.

You have to act cautiously.

That sounded like a request.

Does this not concern you anymore?

Are you really leaving?

You have your duties as a director,

and I have mine.

Don't tell me

you agreed to take the fall for it all.

Why would I?

Remember the custodians' housing
on the Songtan campus?

The one you're giving
to Seosan Village Cooperative?

It'll be where the parents
of the man you met today

will be living in.

The Minister of Environment?

Why would his parents live
in our hospital's building?

Ms. Kang will give you a copy
of the lease.

You can read the details there.

The townspeople as well as
his parents will be moving in.

Please make sure it goes as planned.

They did hard labor all their lives.
You can give them

easy custodial duties.

That's why you called it
a custodians' housing.

To have them really do custodial work?

If that's what they want.

Sure. I'll do that.

What else?

Is there anything else I should do?

What's wrong with me?

LETTER OF RESIGNATION

What is this?

It's my resignation letter.

I know that.

Use your vacation days.
Take some time off.

SUMMARY OF RESPONSIBILITIES

LETTER OF RESIGNATION

Thank you for everything.

I think...

I think I'm having a heart attack.

My chest feels tight, and I can't breathe.

How are you breathing now?

Here. Through my mouth.

When did the symptom start?

Let's run an EKG.

Okay.

Do you have rhinitis?

You took this
and used a nasal spray, didn't you?

Allergy...

Mr. Bang. Put it back.

If you use a nasal spray with this,
it'll stuff up your nose.

-Prescribe him something else.
-Okay.

It's okay to breathe through your mouth.

You get thirsty, that's all.

Try breathing through your mouth.

-You can breathe, right?
-Chief.

They said to gather
in the conference room.

Is she enjoying this or what?
She keeps calling meetings.

Please send at least one person
from each department

for the photoshoot
at the certification ceremony.

Couldn't you have just e-mailed these
to us?

This is a busy time of the day.

Mr. Gu!

Also...

The new consultation hours on Saturdays...

What do you need to talk...

Hello.

We heard today was your last day.

Sir, I understand that
we haven't been on the best of terms,

but you weren't going to leave us
without saying goodbye, were you?

Take care of yourselves.

So, this is where you have meetings.

Instead of saying goodbye,

I'll share with you
something I heard recently.

Someone told me

to look at Sangkook five years from now,
no need to wait for ten years.

I was told
that future medical institutions

won't be where illnesses are treated,

but where the health of the wealthy
will be maintained.

To be honest, I don't think
that's completely incorrect.

How long can you resist the change?

Until when can you prevent the core values

of medicine

from being compromised?

It's up to all of you now.

Some will give in,

some will persevere,

and some...

will go against the flow.

Some of you may be imperfect,

not particularly superior to others,

and even appear to be lost and confused,

but will achieve your goals

in the end.

I'll keep a close eye on
Sangkook University Hospital,

which I was a part of, albeit briefly.

I look forward to seeing
how you will turn out to be

in the next ten to twenty years.

I wish you all good luck.

Meeting adjourned.

Go.

Sorry, my little brother.

How long has this been on?

You told them it was my last day,
didn't you?

Pardon? Me?

I guess this will be my last time to walk
across this hospital lobby with you.

Thank you for everything.

I don't work for Hwajeong anymore,
so I don't need the company car.

Thank you for everything.

Please let me drive you up to today.

Your car is in the usual spot

in the parking lot, right?

I'll be right out.

Why did you try to fire me?

What?

You wanted to ask that now...

I wanted to ask

why you did that to me.

But I couldn't.

Why not?

I didn't know why I couldn't ask either.

But I know now.

I was afraid you'd say that you hated me.

That you'd say
it was annoying to have me around.

I was afraid that's what you'd say to me.

Take care,

Dr. Lee No-eul.

Is this too much?

What if it's crowded and rowdy?
That would be a bit...

Well, I didn't make the reservation,
so I don't know what it'll be like.

You look great.

I know.

Let's go.

Jin-woo.

You saw No-eul once,
but you remember her well.

She's pretty,

and they looked really close.

That's...

They fight all the time.

He may look like this,
but he has a temper.

What about my looks?

Let's ask.

How does my brother look?

There's your answer. You've been rejected.
I'm so sorry for you.

It's okay. She has low standards.

She said you were cute.
That says it all. It's over.

Look at this punk. Don't get all shy.

Stop overreacting.

I meant it. And you two look alike.

-What?
-What?

You do.

The more I look at you,
the more alike you two look.

You should be honored.

I'm insulted.

I need to use the restroom.

Please don't talk about me.

What else would we talk about?

Talk about the weather.

Isn't it great?

They seem to like each other.

What about me?

Are you sick of me now?

I'm thankful to you.

Then keep being thankful to me.
Problem solved.

Thank you.

I held on thanks to you.

I relied on you a lot.

You listened to me
even if I didn't say anything,

and you cried for me.

For 25 years.

You were by my side for 25 years.

What are you trying to say?

I'm your brother too, you know.

No.

I'm also Seon-woo, your brother.

No, you're not Seon-woo.

You're me.

I created you.

I hated the fact

that Dad died
and Seon-woo became paralyzed.

I couldn't bring Dad back to life,

but I saved you...

in my mind...

and in my heart.

However,

I no longer hate the fact

that Seon-woo can't walk.

I can carry him on my back
for the rest of my life.

I don't mind that.

I wish...

my little brother would live a long life.

I wish he wouldn't leave...

much sooner than I do.

Isn't it great?

They seem to like each other.

He did? Really?

What did I do now?

What did you tell her?

About how you ran away from home.

Hey!

What?

Reporter Kwon was released,

but we can no longer write anything
about Hwajeong.

As expected, there was a deal made.

I'm going to try to become
a TV reporter again.

You'll quit Saegeul21 and return to TV?

Yes. I'll give it another try.

Good luck.

Where's Seon-woo?

I never knew there was a place like this.

It feels like we're at some place
out of town.

Here?

I didn't make it to the beach once
this summer.

Things had been too hectic.

Aren't you two going on vacation?

If I go, I'd only be a nuisance.

That applies to me as well
since all eyes will be on me.

I guess I shouldn't go either.

You should. That's not a reason
for you not to go.

You think so? Then I guess none of us
would be a nuisance to anyone.

What matters is what we want, right?

You're right.

It's nice being out at this hour.

I see you requested time off.

Is it to spend time with her?

What do you mean?

You always denied it,

but now that she's quitting, I guess

you've decided to make it public.

Who's quitting?

Didn't you request time off so you can
spend time with the pediatrician?

Why would I go away with...

No-eul resigned?

You shouldn't run in the hospital,
little boy.

What's going on?

You fought hard to stay here
when they fired you.

I wanted to leave on my own accord.

Seoul isn't the best.

You're going to a rural area?

What's gotten into you?

I've been thinking about it for a while.

I'm still confused though.

So, don't try to convince me not to go.

Let's go eat.

Don't cry because you miss me.

Dr. Lee No-eul.

Coming.

Why do they want me there?
It'll be so awkward to eat with them.

Hey. You're coming with me.

Are you not feeling well?

Mr. Gu is finally gone. What's wrong?

You should have a better appetite.

You know the chairman of Hwajeong
has a younger brother, right?

His name is Cho Nam-chung.

Chairman Cho's younger brother...

Hold on.

Isn't he a doctor too?

He's young, but he's one of the best
pancreatic cancer doctors in the US.

So, they have someone specializing
in cancer in their family.

They sent a CEO at first,

but given how clannish they are,

he'll probably send his brother here
this time.

Having a cancer specialist
as the president

would benefit you in a way.

The Cancer Center will have his support.

What if he says he'll run it
and see patients himself?

What if he doesn't want
an office job at his age

and wants to be both the president
and the chief? What happens to me then?

You're screwed...

It won't be that bad, but...

The chairman's brother, you said?

Have a seat.

Chairman Cho's brother
will be the new president?

What if he's worse than Mr. Gu?

I thought he was in the US.

He was,

but his name was removed
from the hospital website a few days ago.

What timing.

Did he really quit to come here?

I hear you're going to a rural hospital.

Yes.

It's a grand gesture,
but be prepared to be eaten alive.

You'll probably be
the only pediatrician there,

so they'll make you do
all sorts of things.

They tend to distance themselves
from outsiders

since most of them don't stay for long.

But they'll come to realize
that you are good-hearted.

That's why it's more unfair.
She'll work her fingers to the bone,

but they'll claim
she's there for the money.

I see.

We always get scolded.

Who scolded you?

Will Chairman's Cho's brother
be the new president?

Who knows? It's his own hospital anyway.

It must be nice to have his own hospital.

We can have our own hospital, too.

What?

I thought about how we could
free ourselves from Chairman Cho,

and I realized that we need
an independent foundation.

That may sound easy,

but they own not only the hospital
but the university.

We need to buy the foundation
to become independent.

It'll cost hundreds of billions of won.

Hwajeong won't sell it, either.

Isn't the process what matters?

We can ask our alumni for donations,
one by one if necessary,

and let them know why we're doing it.

If it takes decades to gather the funds,

that means we will fight for our cause
for decades.

Then we'd be advertising
our problems ourselves.

We'd damage our own reputation while
trying to expose Hwajeong's corruption.

It will be hard to attract talent.

The medical school won't empty out,

but we won't get the competent ones.

"The doctors at Sangkook
are saying themselves

that they're having problems."

That's what they'll say,
and convince them not to come here.

We'll lose every one of
the talented candidates.

Then where can we get the power
to resist and stop them?

An independent foundation...

How did you come up with that idea?

Buying the entire foundation...

You're so bold.

What's the point?

The chiefs were...

There will be new chiefs eventually.

The next ones can do it.

The next ones?

That would be you.

Since I'll be gone.

But Jin-woo,

stop at chief.

Like anyone would make me one.

Why can't I aim higher?

It's not that you can't.
She's just hoping you wouldn't.

In case you end up like Director Lee.

What do you mean by that?

That would be you...

trying to protect the hospital
against someone like Mr. Gu.

All on your own.

Protect it, my foot.

A lot of people suffered because of him.
Of course, I had to do something.

Don't you think
that's how Director Lee felt too?

He fought the battle alone, only to...

I heard he fired them in advance
to stop more disasters from happening.

He laid his employees off

to prevent them from committing suicide
or getting into an accident.

So that at least,
his employees wouldn't die.

That's what Mr. Gu did?

Did he say that himself?

Someone told me.

No matter how nice Director Lee was,

he wasn't our dad.

Are you drunk?

And Mr. Gu isn't a big, bad man.

He's drunk.

That was always our fear
when we were little.

That a big, bad man would take over
our family and replace Dad.

That when we'd wake up in the morning,
Mom would be gone too.

I remember everything.

You said you'd protect Mom and me.

You didn't get to enjoy your teens.

When you got older,

you were busy making money and studying.

Ye Jin-woo worked so hard all his life.

You should give yourself a break.

You punk.

Move over.

Yes, ma'am.

We don't have that many days left
to hang out like this.

Are you crying?

Why you...

You punk.

Hey. That's dusty.

Just throw punches.

Stop that.

It looks like that.

The thing with the face of Jesus.

This is a masterpiece.

It's not half bad.

Right? Don't you agree?

-I feel blessed.
-Right?

Grow up, will you? Grow up.

You brats.

How is it that
there's nothing I want to do?

-Come before the meeting.
-Yes, sir.

What is it?

Mr. Gu Seung-hyo's e-mail just came in.

Should I leave it on your desk?

Gu Seung-hyo?

HEALTH-MONITORING APPAREL DESIGN OPTIONS

HEART RATE MONITORING

Tell the president of Apparel to call me.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Gu asked us to put
biomedical chips in all of our shoes

and clothing.

Those chips would analyze the wearers'
pulse and the components of their sweat,

and send the data to Sangkook Hospital
via an app he was developing.

He said we must dominate the market

with wearable devices more sophisticated
than those linked to phones.

Okay.

Where's the meeting being held?

Okay.

SMALL CONFERENCE ROOM

There are too many
sabbatical leave requests,

so we'll have to process them
in the order received.

Please review them again,

and resubmit your requests...

He really is here.

You can't fire me.

The chairman
will just assign me here again.

Let him.

I'll just fire you again.

Hey, you.

"Hey, you"?

Your ID.

That's the only bank account
that I would've shared

with the late director.

The hiking club members
took turns using it 20 years ago.

We were the youngest members then,

so I think Director Lee
was the first secretary of the club.

That shithead.

The director opened that bank account

for the membership dues

to pay for expenses.
It was in his own name, I believe.

Even though the secretary changed,

we kept using the same bank account.

The secretary probably received
the dues and managed the account.

Did Dr. Kim serve as the secretary too?

That's right.
Right after Director Lee, I believe.

But that hiking club
was dissolved soon after.

You know...

Even if Dr. Kim messed with that account,

he wouldn't have known the director
would end up like that, don't you think?

That would be too inhumane.

He may not have known that,

but he must have known he wouldn't
be punished even if he were caught.

Really?

No. It isn't a crime.

He didn't embezzle the money.

Even if Dr. Kim received the money
through that account,

there's no way to prove it.

What about the director, then?

Is this how it ends for him?

We haven't uncovered the truth.

How terrible.

Excuse me.

Hello?

Yes.

You were the last person
who managed that bank account.

You're the only one

who could've received money
in my name using the account.

What bullshit are you trying to pull?
Are you trying to ruin my life?

Why are you trying to frame me?

To become the director?

Don't you dare blame it on me.

I'll get you for this!

Yes.

What about the director?

She'll be there soon?

I'll head down right now.

Okay.

He's really coming.

The new president is here now?

-Yes. Would you--
-I should get going.

I'm sure the director
will say we did enough.

You did all you could.

I needed an answer.

That what only the director knew,

what he asked how I knew,

was not about the money,
but a misunderstanding.

I was fine being a bastard
for doubting Director Lee, so I wanted...

to know that I was wrong.

He asked how you knew?

Why did he say that?

Was it around the time when Mr. Gu
was trying to get us and OB-GYN

transferred elsewhere?

Could that have been what he meant?

He probably tried to take care of it
on his own and fight against Mr. Gu.

That's how he was.

Even for me, if I were trying my best
to resolve things myself

without getting you guys all worked up,

but you or So-jeong
happened to come yelling at me,

asking why I kept it from you
and things like that,

I would be flustered too.

A dead man can't defend himself.

It's why you need to stay alive,
no matter what.

We'll have to save lives, no matter what.

That's right. Even if the higher-ups
give us crap,

all we have to do is save people's lives.

Let it all go, and get some rest.

Don't carry it with you.

You can save lives when you return.

I'll be back, Director.

I'll save more lives when I get back.

Dr. Ye.

Are you leaving now?

Yes.

See you next week.

-See you when I get back.
-Okay.

See you again.

The sun is so nice.

It's so sunny.

-Jin-woo.
-Yes?

FROM SURGERY TO REHAB, WE TAKE CARE OF YOU

FORMER DEPUTY DIRECTOR

Come at 9:30 a.m. on Monday.

Thank you.

This won't be easy.

-What's wrong?
-My back.

Hold on. Does it hurt here?

Gosh.

Should I get surgery?

You know surgery is not the only option.

-What about here?
-Right there. There.

How long was it like this?

Just all of a sudden.

You should get it imaged.

You have more important operations
to perform with these.

These are such valuable hands.

My gosh. Seriously...

Use these great hands sparingly, Dr. Kim.

So we can be work partners
for a long time.

Sure, let's do that.

Let's go.

You may go in now.

Okay.

Seon-woo! Jin-woo!

My mom brought over
tons of food last week,

so my fridge is about to explode.

It seems she's not angry with you anymore.

Is she okay with you
being here on your own now?

"Being angry with you is one thing
and bringing you food is another.

I'm still hurt." That's what she said.

Your mom is so different from you.

She's still like a girl.

If she's different from me and she's
like a girl, what am I then?

Did you empty out the store?
What took you so long?

I was looking around. It's nice here.

Aren't you supposed to ask me
how I'm doing?

Didn't he ask you that?

Dr. Ye. You're going to live
a very long life.

How are you so consistent
through and through?

Are you done yapping?

We have a boat to catch.

-I'll see you guys on your way back.
-Okay.

Put on some more weight.
You look like a toothpick.

We'll come back soon.

Go and have fun to your heart's content.

All done.

Okay.

The neck.

Want flippers?

Stop being such an amateur.

Here.

-Done.
-Okay?

Okay.

Let's go.

Slowly.

Okay.

-Are you okay?
-Yes.

Hold the buoy.

Hold that.

-How's the water?
-It's cool.

-We'll go a little farther.
-Okay.

You can jump in when you're ready.

We'll go in first.

Sir, here... All right.

Wasn't that awesome?

It really was!

-Did you drink seawater?
-Yes.

It's so salty.

I'll take a picture for you.

Take off your snorkel masks. Good.

No-eul.

How have you been?

I see that you haven't left yet.

For where?

I have a question.

You know that I just got here, right?

What is it?
