EPISODE 8

PUREUN CHILD WELFARE SERVICE

Excuse me.

Take good care of him.

Yes, sir.

QL ELECTRONICS

Mr. Hong left Incheon
for his office in Yangjae.

His ETA is three minutes to five o'clock.

Hwajeong Life Insurance sent us an offer.

They want to sell their insurance plans
through our hospital.

They must have heard that we entered
an alliance with Hwajeong Chemical.

I'll defer the response.

It's Black Ivory.

You must still be tired from the travel.

Thank you for making time for me.

It was just a short trip to Hong Kong.

It's made from elephant poop.

It does taste different from kopi luwak.

Kopi luwak?

Only some snobs make a big deal out of
something like that.

Nam-hyeong told me...

Oh, I'm sorry.

Mr. Cho told me the gist.

So, you'd like to develop an app with us?

Yes, a health app.

We would like to develop
a built-in app for QL phones that monitors

the users' health measurements,
such as heart rate,

blood pressure, and BMI.

The app will send the data directly to us
at Sangkook University Hospital.

"Exclusively"

is a better fitting word.

Through this, Sangkook
gets to keep our users under their thumb.

They'll become our potential clients.

Why must I offer up my customers
to Mr. Cho's hospital?

Sir, if not with Sangkook University
Hospital, with whom will you work?

It's hard to share profits
with national university hospitals,

and other large hospitals
already have partners.

I'm sorry, but both QL and Sangkook
are behind in the game.

Why do you think that is?

Because I didn't know?

"Your heart rate is unusual lately."

The app will send such push notifications
to the user and make them nervous,

leading them to make
an appointment for a checkup.

At Sangkook Hospital, of course.

Then you have that user under your thumb.

Healthy Life Clinic, right?

You recently announced your plan for that,
didn't you?

-I did.
-"Your heart rate

is irregular because of your smoking.

Okay, then. Go over
to Sangkook Smoking Cessation Clinic."

That's what you want to do.

Why should I help you?

I can explain
how we will distribute profits

generated through this app right now,
if you'd like.

But rather than that...

I know Chairman Hong Seong-chan
of QL Electronics

won't miss out on a great opportunity

just because it would benefit
someone else as well.

The health app is just the beginning.

You know, telemedicine is now poised
to become the new normal.

Soon, someone from a remote island

will be able to get examined by doctors
in Seoul via video conferencing.

You wouldn't let QL's phones

become useless
because you don't have a partner hospital.

By that time, we won't need
an alliance with a hospital.

The problem is,
everyone has made alliances.

If you think about hospitals
on par with QL Electronics' status,

there is no better partner
than Sangkook University Hospital

among the Big Five.

That's true. QL and Hwajeong.

Although Hwajeong
is not in the cell phone business,

we're fighting tooth and nail

in other business areas
in the global market.

You are right. Hwajeong
is not in the cell phone business,

and QL Electronics
does not own a hospital.

It got cold.

We can just buy a hospital

as Hwajeong did.

When we do, which of the Big Five

would we push out?

Thank you for the coffee, sir.

Sir.

Mr. Cho. Are you busy lately?

You must be really busy.

Why did you send a pip-squeak over?

I guess you aren't desperate enough.

It's the chairman's assistant.
He wants you to come in.

You should've stormed out
as soon as he started talking bullshit.

Why did you make it sound like
I was begging that prick for it?

I'm sorry, sir.

That annoying prick.

He sucked in school, too.

I know what kind of loser he used to be.
How dare he call and act cocky to me?

I should've pushed forward
to enter the cell phone business.

I should've fought my father.

Should I just enter it now?

-The cell phone market--
-It is completely saturated.

You can always buy, build,
or expand a hospital.

That's why he's being cocky.
I know that, but still...

it's annoying as hell.

I'll get Mr. Hong to change his mind.

How?

He has pretty much everything,

so giving him bait won't work.
I'll have to break him down.

I'll keep meeting with him
until he agrees,

so you won't have to worry.

You're working super hard

to make sure not to worry me.

You canceled the relocation

against your will
because you didn't want me

to be criticized, right?

It was also because of
non-medical revenue.

Non-medical revenue...

Before joining the hospital,
I heard that superior general hospitals

always operate in the red.

That's what all the other
large hospitals' public records said,

so I thought it was true.

But?

Through the recent efficiency evaluation,

we've put together
a consolidated financial statement,

and I found an item that I had never seen
in that of corporations.

It's called "reserve fund
for essential business."

To put it simply, it's an expense

reserved for purchasing buildings
or medical equipment.

The previous foundation had counted it
as an expense without spending it,

but we counted it as revenue,

and it made the ordinary profit
go from in the red to black.

How much was it?

Including the fund reserved
for the branch hospital,

it's 203.7 billion won, sir.

Now I get it.
They were whining to get their way.

Hospitals don't need to worry
about the stock price anyway.

But if we eliminate essential departments
like Emergency Medicine or Pediatrics,

we'll receive
significantly fewer benefits,

including tax exemption and deductions.

It would be better for us

to keep the three departments
and increase the size of the reserve fund.

I was planning to prepare a report for you
by tomorrow.

I'm sorry for making you hear this
from the Restructure Team first.

That was your specialty...

when you were an assistant.

You'd watch to see what I was doing

and rush to tell my father on me.

Don't blame Mr. Lee.

I don't blame him. And...

I've never...

told the previous chairman
about what you did.

It would've been nice if you were
one of my people from the start.

Keep working on QL.

Cell phones are the best way to reach
all the people in the country.

We need this deal.

I understand, sir.

Are you okay?

I told you to go home.

Well...

Are you okay?

Let's go.

Let's just go home.

Over here.

What are we, spies?

Why did you want to meet here at night?

Mr. Assessment Man.
Do you still think I'm No-eul?

Why are your eyes all swollen?

I'm still pretty though, right?

This is too much to bear alone.

Why don't you come out now?

You punk.

How's work going?

I'm on government duty. It's confidential.

Sure, whatever.

-You need to go back?
-Yes.

-What about dinner?
-Why don't you ever ask me that?

Don't fight and go home, punks.

Bye. We'll go now.

After you leave.

Go on.

Okay.

See you tomorrow.

What do you think will happen
to the deputy director?

Who knows?

I don't know yet.

Is there an alternative?

You said he is not fit to be the director.

Then who's the alternative?

I don't know either.

I don't think there's anyone
who could challenge Mr. Gu.

Well, I only met him today though.

You met him?

He seemed nice.

No way. Try working with him.

Never mind.
Why should you put up with him?

But is there really no good candidate
for the director?

GENERAL USE

Hold the elevator.

Thank...

Thank you.

Thanks.

In a town in Switzerland,

they took a vote on whether to build
a nuclear waste repository.

The result?

Over 60% approved of the decision.

But then, the government
offered compensation.

"If you let us build the repository
in your town,

we will pay you."

So, they took another vote.

What for?

They should've just built it
since over 60% agreed to it.

How many do you think voted "yes"
this time?

Do you think they were able to
build it or not?

Dr. Lee?

Yes?

So?

I heard you will open a veterinary center.

Where will you open the center?

What was the result of the vote?

We'll need a space for it.

But our hospital is packed.

Would you like to see?

Where should I show you around this time?

The robotic operating room?

The anatomy lab?

This is the Negative Pressure
Isolation Zone.

It's utilized in the occurrence
of an infectious disease outbreak.

The maintenance
costs about 30 million won a year,

but it's hardly ever used.

Until a few years ago,

there was no awareness
on the need for the facility,

let alone any regulations.

It was MERS which changed that.

When MERS spread,

our country's hospitals suffered so much.

They weren't prepared for it.

Only after going through that difficulty

did they come up with a system.

Why don't you think of it as an investment
in crisis management?

Chief Oh is giving a lecture.

Are they med students?

I think they are residents.

Residents have classes like this?

Only if they're lucky enough
to have a professor

who will make time to teach them.

Okay. What are your thoughts?

It's a large aneurysm measuring over 25mm.

How would you treat it?

Intracranial aneurysms can be treated
with clipping or coiling.

For this patient, given the size
and location of the aneurysm,

I'd opt for coiling.

-Anyone else?
-The aneurysm is located in the MCA,

but the size is too large.

Since surgical treatment
would be too risky,

I'd also go with coiling.

-I'd also--
-Why?

Well...

-Get out.
-Dr. Oh.

I won't wait for those who fall behind.

Don't waste my time, and get out.

I'm sorry. Please...

Both of you overlooked
the patient's underlying disease.

You only looked at the aneurysm.

In fact, this patient

has kidney disease,
so the lab results aren't good.

He also has edema,

and his aortic arch and ICA
are in bad condition.

It'd be hard to reach the aneurysm,
so coiling wouldn't work.

That must be a habit.

Doing this when you're focused.

I don't do that.

Yes, you do.

Who would dare criticize me?

WIFEY

That's right.
She must be at school right now.

I should have called her another time.

AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY

To you...

I must seem like the grim reaper.

I'm sorry.

Curse me all you want.

But sir,

through my job,

I saw blind people see for the first time,

and people on the brink of death...

walk out of here alive.

That's why I can't give up...

that easily.

I'm sure...

you understand how I feel
better than anyone.

I'm sorry.

So, in Pediatrics, we inject only 20ml
of a 100ml ampoule,

and throw out the rest.

The kids are small, so we must
adjust the dosage accordingly.

But the HIRA

will reimburse us only for the 20ml
that was actually administered.

Then do hospitals need to pay
for the discarded 80ml?

That's why some hospitals
recycle the leftover,

knowing that they shouldn't.

If you recycle them
and combine the leftovers,

the risk of contamination increases.

It's late. Good night.

Good night.

So, what happened
with the nuclear waste...

Why did you come back?

Do you know your way out?

I realized it's your first time
in this part of the hospital.

Every path connects to the front door.

Okay, then.

That child...

That child from before.

He was taken to a welfare center.

Yes, they took him.

Is that why

you're all puffy? From crying?

No.

There are quite a lot of kids who end up
being taken to welfare centers.

How many times did I ask you? You idiot!

I'm sorry.

Pull yourself together!

Hasn't it been decided already?

The question is, who will it be?

If the deputy director
loses his candidacy,

who will jump into the race for director?

Dr. Lee Sang-yeop of the Cancer Center.

He was a deputy director in the past.

We did not cover it up. We reported it.

I reported it to Director Lee.

He spent a lot of time in the US,
so he's not that authoritative.

Before he got screwed over
because of that incident,

he fought back against Mr. Gu the most.

Excessively recommends clinical trials,
approved the pay-for-performance program,

and he thinks only about
the Cancer Center.

Then, who else?

Dr. Seo of Ophthalmology.

They generate the most revenue.
He is ambitious.

Come on. The nurses hate him so much.

He sexually harasses them.

The nurses
can't take part in the election.

Among the doctors who can vote...

Do you own the hospital?

The real owner doesn't even care.
Why do this to yourself?

What would you get out of this?

Dr. Oh Se-hwa.

You alone can't change anything.

Seon-woo was dragged into it
because of me.

I dragged him in,
so I must take full responsibility.

Dr. Oh...

Leave it.

I'm off tomorrow.
That's why I left them there.

It's not a lot.

I'll do it.

I'm turning you.

Gosh.

Go in and rest.

Were you on the phone with No-eul?

What?

Weren't you just talking to her?

No.

Why did you think that?

I thought you said something about me.

Whom else would you talk to about me?

That's why.

You heard me?

I couldn't really hear
what you were saying though.

I wasn't eavesdropping. Don't worry.

Good night.

You too.

Does anyone else know other than your mom

and me?

So...

no one else knows that you can see

and talk to the other Seon-woo
who can walk?

I don't talk to him in other places
like at school, even if I see him.

Other kids may hear me.

Good.

You were very upset
because your brother got hurt.

You wanted to run around
and play with him like before.

Your heart created him

because you missed
how your brother used to be.

So it's okay.

Everything is okay.

But Jin-woo,

you know well yourself, right?

That you're the only person
who can see the Seon-woo who can walk.

That he only lives inside your heart.

All right.

Then why don't we try practicing?

Practicing?

The Seon-woo that you see

is your friend. An imaginary friend.

So, even if you talk to him in your mind
without speaking out loud,

your friend can still hear you.

So, I'm not crazy, right? I'm not, right?

You simply have a very special friend

different from your other friends.

However, that special friend
will disappear someday.

Let's slowly prepare
to let your friend go.

Practice talking to him
only inside of your head.

Even if you say it in your head,
that Seon-woo can still hear you

because that Seon-woo is you.

It's nice running again.

You're tired, aren't you?

It gets harder every day, doesn't it?

Calm down. He just happened
to hear you last night.

Were we careless?

Stop sulking.

That won't stop me from showing up!

Should we go?

Call me if the deputy director
tries to screw you over.

Let me use you as an excuse
to kick him in the tibia, too.

He wouldn't. I'm a government...

Did he hit you before?

Why the tibia of all places?

Did that bastard kick you in the shin?

Is he a gangster?

If I find even the slightest dirt on him,

I'll destroy him.

What great mentality as an orthopedist.

Should we grab breakfast?

Gross.

All right.

All done.

CHOI SEO-HYEON

Okay, bye.

Hello? Ms. Choi?

Hello, Dr. Ye.

Are you free to talk?

Yes.

Yes. What's the occasion?

We received some documents,

but they're medical records,
so we can't make sense of them.

I can help you.

Thank you.

I'll send them to you now.
Can you please look them over?

I'll call you in about an hour.
Is that okay?

Right... Right now?

I'm at the hospital.

I'm sorry. If you're busy--

No. It's not that I'm busy per se.

I just can't download the files right now.

Well... if you have time,

I'd prefer to explain things to you
in person.

I'll come to the hospital now, then.

I'm a bit busy right now.

If you'd give me some time...
Well, it'll get less busy soon.

How about an hour from now?

Okay, then.

It's 12:40 p.m. right now,
so I'll be at the hospital by 2 p.m.

By 2 p.m.?

Yes. Okay. See you then.

-Dr. Ye.
-Yes?

The same café on the first floor?

Yes, that's right.
The one on the first floor.

Thank you for making time for me.
See you soon.

Am I bothering him when he's busy?

GENERAL USE

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Thank you.

Did you stop by your office?

Yes.

How's the pain?

It's fine. I still have my painkillers.

The hospital people won't like it

if they see you talking to me.

If you're not coming
in case your brother finds out,

I'll refer you to another hospital.

You shouldn't skip your checkups.

Thank you.

But please don't tell--

Don't worry. I won't tell him.

Take care.

Thank you.

Hello.

Hello.

Did he hit you before?

SURGEON: KIM TAE-SANG

Hello, Dr. Lee.

Min-seo's parents signed the consent form.

Did the father change his mind?
They'll donate her organs?

I'll be right there.

I heard the news.

Then... are you taking our daughter
right now?

No. There's a process.

First, we need to conduct an EEG--

Why do you want to know that?

Let's go.

She has to go through
a tiresome process until the end.

I need to know what they're going to do.

What difference does that make?

I don't want to know.

Sir.

We'll do our best

not to make the difficult decision
you made go to waste.

This is Sunwoo Chang.
When will she be pronounced brain-dead?

I need a security video.

Of what?

He requested the video
of Operating Room Three

of Rosette E in the main building
recorded on February 14.

Why?

He says he can only tell us
after he checks the video.

He wouldn't say more.

What should we do?

Get the video.

Can't you turn on the sound?

No. The cameras in the operating rooms
do not record sound.

Well, so the doctors...

There are many of them.

I'm sorry,

but we lack the know-how in this field.

What in the world is going on?

If you lack the know-how,
you will get nowhere.

Hey. It's me. I'm going to send you
an operation note

and a video of an operation.
See what they are about.

Yes, it's urgent.

CHOI SEO-HYEON

INCOMING CALL: SEON-WOO

Hey.

-I can't really talk--
-I found it.

Where are you?

Aren't you off today?
I thought you were home.

-What did you find?
-Have you heard of Han Min-gyo?

Does he work here?

No, but...

Did it get caught on the security camera?

Han Min-gyo works for BioCal.

BioCal sells medical devices
and equipment.

The hospital recently purchased MediHap,
a surgical robot

used for arthroplasty, through them.

The latest version, of which
there are only three in the nation,

is here, in Operating Room Three
of Rosette E.

What kind of idiot got these documents?

Are you a moron?

They're all about ceramics!
What can I do with these?

Where are Nam-jun and Ji-yeong?

Get them now!

They were both paged and went downstairs.

You stupid moron.

Did you even graduate from grade school?

Who cares if they were paged or not?

Just shut your mouth
and bring them to me now!

-I'm sorry.
-You moron.

SON JI-YEONG

What?

You're asking for me
when I'm so busy. Fine!

CONFERENCE ROOM

A surgical robot

for removing joints that are damaged
either by arthritis or trauma

and implanting a prosthesis
more precisely.

If you needed a lecture on basics,
you should've asked me.

I could've explained it to you
better than this amateur.

MediHap utilizes a 3-D CT scan
to minimize unnecessary bone removal

and to improve accuracy

so that the original structure can be
retained and side effects can be reduced.

Are you here to sell the machine?

Are you in sales now?

I don't need to.

You already have a salesperson
you are close to.

Han Min-gyo from BioCal.

What? Is this about that?

Are you making this fuss about that?

Han Min-gyo is under police investigation

for practicing medicine without a license.

On March 15 this year,
at a general hospital in Busan,

he was caught operating on a patient

in place of the doctor
using the MediHap he had sold.

He's going to be arrested soon.

Did Han Min-gyo not tell you that?

On February 14, at 3:40 p.m.,

you, Dr. Kim Tae-sang,
the chief of Orthopedics,

conducted two surgeries simultaneously,

one in Operating Room Three
and another in the OR across the hall.

Who was operating the MediHap...

in Operating Room Three that day?

Will we have to cut through the ribs?

We'll see whether we need to
when we go in.

-Do you think--
-The person

who knows best about the machine did it!

We got that machine
less than a week before the surgery.

The person who sells it
knows it best. That's why!

Why do we perform robotic surgeries?

Because we can operate
with more precision!

It could've gone wrong if I did it myself
using the machine I'm not familiar with.

It was the best option for the patient.

You abandoned the patient!

You entrusted the patient to someone
without a medical license and left.

He was unqualified!

At least the doctor in Busan
stayed and watched to learn.

He watched as the salesperson
performed the procedure.

At least he made an effort!

What?

What did you just say?

"Effort"?

I've been working my ass off
at this hospital for 30 years.

You've burdened so many people
so that you can be where you are now.

How dare you judge and criticize me?

To whom have I been a burden?

Insisting on going into orthopedics
in itself...

Do you know how physically demanding
being an orthopedist is?

If you ever thought about

how much of a burden you are

to your colleagues and seniors,

you could not dare
insist on going into orthopedics!

Someone useless like you could not!

Deputy Director Kim.

We were the ones
who had to bear the burden!

While one punk
pretended to be some noble guy

with determination
and the rest acted like philanthropists,

we had to work our asses off
to pick up the slack!

You made all that fuss back then, too.

You don't have a single day of experience
in the OR. Who are you to judge me?

What? "Effort"?

I heard

that there was...

one professor

who refused to let me intern here
at my own alma mater.

I found out after ten years

who refused me when another school

accepted me...

without a problem.

It doesn't matter.

Ye Seon-woo
worked harder than anyone else.

You worked
until you popped a vein in your foot...

from sitting for too long.

Your foot got swollen
from working so much,

so I drained blood from your foot.

Numerous times.

I know that.

It doesn't matter
what others say about you.

On February 14...

at 3:40 p.m.,

you two assisted the deputy director
in his surgery, correct?

Is what Dr. Ye Seon-woo said

about an unlicensed person
performing surgery true?

Did Deputy Director Kim Tae-sang
overlook it and encourage it?

Did he?

Thank you for your answer.

The patient's waiting.

How dare they...

Shit. Assholes.

Shit.

Assholes.

What...

You asshole.

Say that again.

Try being an asshole to me
like you just did to my brother.

I'll follow you around
for the rest of your life.

I'll show up at your door

and in front of your children.

I may not be able to save you,
but I can kill you.

Don't you ever be rude
to my brother again.

Or I'll kill you.

That crazy jerk.

Those damn doctors.

I barely fixed one problem,
and those bastards...

Yes, sir.

Let's find out who filed the complaint
against the deputy director.

You're good at yelling.

It must've been hard.

I'll get in trouble
when I go back to the office.

We're supposed to investigate quietly

without causing problems on-site.

Why didn't you tell me?

That you went to another school
because a professor refused you.

Why did you tell me it was your choice?
You said you felt uncomfortable here.

You were serving as a public health doctor
in Gwangyang then.

I was going to come back.

Exactly.

You were going to come back here.

You'd have to see that professor

all the time while working here.

I'm fine.

I didn't have to complete
my training here.

So don't look at me like that.

How did I look at you?

You're being gross.

Gosh.

I'm really fine.

Fine.

Why did you come here on your day off?
Was it because of me?

What?

Damn it.

CHOI SEO-HYEON

At first, they argued back and forth

since the deputy director
wanted to argue his case.

But still, it's true that he messed up.

Mr. Gu was there and heard everything?

Is he trying to bring them down
one by one?

I don't get it.

No matter what his intention was,

Mr. Gu was the one who exposed
the Cancer Center incident,

but how did he dig up the dirt
on the deputy director?

How would he know
about what happened in the OR?

But in the end...

He pulled them out of the game.

The fourth and fifth batters specifically.

I'm sure everyone thought the same thing

after Director Lee passed away.

That one of those two
would be the next hospital director.

Right.

The chief of the Cancer Center
and the deputy director

were the lead candidates.

But think about it, Dr. Oh.

Why must it be one of those two?

You're the first female chief
of the Neurosurgery Center.

Now, it makes me wonder.

Why must that be the highest position
you hold?

Right?

DR. LEE SANG-YEOP

You can relax now.

The focus shifted from you
to the deputy director.

You should make an aggressive move
at a time like this.

You should think of a way.

I can take him home.

Where are you, though?

I just have somewhere to be.

Where exactly?

Is something wrong?

No.

But don't ask Seon-woo

if he's okay or things like that.

Don't ask him
about what happened earlier today.

I won't unless he brings it up.
I'm not the nosy type.

Right.

Thanks.

SAEGEUL21

There's nothing wrong with coming by.

I flaked on her twice.

It's okay to come and apologize.

Just a minute.

-Are you ready?
-Yes. Give me one minute.

So, this is what your office looks like.
This is where you work.

-Never been to a pediatrician's office?
-I've never been to yours until today.

They're all the same.

Should we grab dinner?

Let's get some takeout and eat at home.

Okay.

That's right.
Do you know Dr. Joo Kyung-moon?

Why?

You don't?

Why do you ask?

Earlier today,

I thought he was referring to Jin-woo,
but...

While one punk pretended to be
some noble guy

with determination
and the rest acted like philanthropists,

we had to work our asses off
to pick up the slack!

This is...

Dr. Ye's fight. Stay out of it.

I heard that there was one professor

who refused to let me intern here
at my own alma mater.

At first, I thought the Dr. Ye
he mentioned was Jin-woo.

But it isn't Jin-woo's fight.

I wondered before too,
whether he knew you.

Does he?

Does he?

How?

Seon-woo.

What is it?

No-eul.

Yes?

I...

like you.

Me, too.

Let me say it.

Let me be a man

who can tell the woman he likes
how he feels about her.

Let me be an ordinary man

and confess my feelings.

It was from the start.

From the very first moment...

I met you, No-eul.

You think the world is your oyster now,
don't you?

How did you hold it in all this time?

How could you guys...

You should've done better, then.

Right, you should've done better.

At least I'd never have anyone
tell me to shut up

since I never cause trouble!

You reported me, didn't you?

We can't silence the press.

We can handle it quietly, though.

Why won't you play your hand?

What is it?

This won't do.

Please be our director.

Don't just say you're worried.

Please step in before our hospital...

gets any worse.

Deputy Director Kim

did not withdraw his candidacy.

He just can't seem to back down.

The chief of the Cancer Center
won't budge, either.

They're all impressive.

But there is a new option now.

Mr. Gu, the election results are out.

Really? Who...

Who won more votes?

I have high expectations for you.

I look forward to working with you,
Dr. Joo.
