Professor Choi.

Professor Choi, please save my mom.

Professor Choi.

Professor Choi.

Mom.

Please save my mother,
Professor Choi.

Please, sir.

Please.

You call yourselves a doctor?

After all this?

Hold on.

Mosquito forceps.

(Episode 3)

What's going on outside?
It's so noisy.

An emergency patient
was being moved in,

and they barged in
to the surgery room.

Choi Seok Han is always like this.

It's as if we were a local clinic.

How are we supposed to
attend to all emergencies?

And he pushed back the chief's
stent patient's surgery...

for two hours.

What? He pushed back
the chief's patient's surgery?

Where is the patient?

He went to do the surgery
after the drilling.

Why are you telling me that now?

Give me the thread.
I'll beat him to it. The thread!

I'll begin. Scalpel.

- I'll make an incision.
- Yes, sir.

Deaver.

Pull it back better.
I can't see anything!

What are you doing?
Is this your first surgery?

Yes.

You said it's your fourth year.
Can someone else come in?

Both ORs are in surgery.

I'll do it.

No. I can't let someone from
another hospital do surgery.

I can do it.

A son is trying to save his mother.
Who will criticize him for that?

Switch places.

Pardon?

Hold the aorta here.

Yes, sir.

I got it.

Wash your hands,
and come back quickly.

Yes, sir.

Don't think of her as your mother.

She's just a patient
when she's on an operating table.

Okay.

Clamp.

The Allis clamp is on.

How are her vitals?

They're fine for now.

Clamp.

You can let go now. Suction.

Dr. Lee.

I'll pop the air.
She'll bleed for a bit.

Metzenbaum scissors.

Her blood pressure is good.

How is it going?

I'm sure she'll be fine.

Professor Choi might seem a bit off,
but he's a good surgeon.

- Tae Soo is good too.
- Then why worry?

She'll live.

Metzenbaum scissors.

Cut.

Cut.

Okay.

Let's see what happens now
since we took care of the bleeding.

Okay.

You can close her up, right?
I have another patient.

Professor Choi.

- Earlier, I was...
- That's all right.

If I were you,
I would've said harsher things.

At that moment,
you weren't a doctor,

but her son.

Sir.

My back feels pretty numb.

I never imagined
you'd stab me in the back.

I'm sorry, but he opened her stomach
in the ambulance.

Do you need to be sorry?
Everyone makes their own decisions.

You just need to take responsibility
of your decisions.

I'll go do the surgery now.

There's no need.
Professor Koo is on it.

Wasn't Professor Choi harsh earlier?

What do you mean?

Think about it. If he sent her away,
she would've died.

I've known him for 10 years,
but I still can't figure him out.

Anyway, he still saved the patient.

That's what he does.

- I'll monitor her. Hook the line.
- Okay.

What's the set-up?

- Set it on 20 for now.
- Okay.

Your mother will wake up soon.

You two must leave now.

Can't I stay here
until my mother wakes up?

We can't allow that
due to the ICU protocol.

Let him stay just for today.

He'll take care of her
better than anyone.

He majored in Chest Surgery.

- Call me when the patient wakes up.
- Okay.

Then only one of you can stay.

I'll get going, Tae Soo.

I might really get fired.

Thank you, Woo Jin. You should go.

Don't forget to call me
when she wakes up.

(Taesan University Hospital)

Let me see the patient
who lived thanks to her son.

You're right. She probably
worked hard to make him a doctor.

That's why she lived.

Are you a shaman? How do you know
if she worked hard or not?

How could you not?
We can tell from her hands.

You're right. She did work hard.

Her hands are like my mother's.

He's lucky. He managed to save her,
and he can stay by her now.

I envy him so much.

I think the patient is crying.

She's tearing up.

- She must have heard us.
- Is she awake?

- Call Professor Choi now.
- Okay.

Ms. Oh Jung Ae, can you hear me?

Ms. Oh?

We think Ms. Oh is awake.

Pardon?

Mom, can you hear me?

If you can, open up your eyes.

Mom.

Mom.

If you can hear me, nod for me.

You're okay now, Mom.

[Kocowa Ver]

-♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

You can detach the respirator now.

Okay.

Ms. Oh, you lived
thanks to your son.

Thank you, Tae Soo.

Mom.

You did well.

Let's go home now.

Professor Choi.

Thank you.

Take good care of her.

Her blood pressure seems high too.

She needs Cardiac examinations.
Don't forget that.

Okay.

- Thank you.
- No problem.

Thank you.

(Taesan University Hospital
Chest Surgery fellowship interview)

(Taesan University Hospital
Chest Surgery fellowship interview)

I'm candidate 1250, Park Tae Soo.

I'm candidate 1486, Koo Dong Joon.

Have a seat.

What's this?

Haewon University.
Was there such a place?

You finished your major
at Joongsan University Hospital,

and you want to do
your fellowship at our hospital?

- Yes.
- Are you looking down on us?

- No.
- Who told you to come here?

I applied because I wanted to work
at Taesan University Hospital.

Your exam results are great though.

For this year's
technical test for surgery,

you got the highest score
nationwide.

How does that make sense?

People might misunderstand.

Only 20 people took that exam.
That isn't a great deal.

Manager Koo,

Mr. Koo's scored 20th
among those 20 people.

I didn't know either.

We can use him as standby.
They're all similar anyways.

They all have to learn more anyway.

(Professor Koo Hee Dong)

Mr. Choi,

what do you think...

of having someone from
Haewon University at our hospital?

I think...

it doesn't matter
as long as he is a hard worker.

Then why do we bother going
to Taesan University?

We can just be hard workers instead.

And that isn't
the only problem you have.

In your fourth year,

you made a professor
take disciplinary action.

He called me and said...

that you shouldn't be allowed
to be here.

Who are you going to bother next?

- No.
- No?

Then tell us what you'll do here.

(Taesan University Hospital
Chest Surgery fellowship interview)

I want to become a doctor.

Hey.

You're making me
become a bad person.

I really hope
you achieve that one day.

But not at
Taesan University Hospital.

(Application Form)

Mr. Park Tae Soo?

Professor Choi.

How's your mother?

She's still undergoing treatments,
but she's doing fine.

It's all thanks to you.

I couldn't tell you something
earlier.

What?

There is already someone
from Haewon University...

working at
Taesan University Hospital.

Sorry?

Do you mean...

you're also from...?

It won't be easy to work here
when you're from Haewon University.

Sorry?

This is all I can do for you.

Thank you, Professor Choi.

Thank you.

(Taesan University Hospital)

(Taesan University Hospital)

(Heart Surgeons)

(4 years later)

(Taesan University Hospital)

Excuse me.

Yes?

When did you wake up?

Please hold on.

Where am I?

Ms. Lee.

- Ms. Lee?
- Why?

Is he going through delirium?

(Delirium: An acutely disturbed
state of mind after surgery.)

Yes, he is.

- How did he get that off?
- That's not important right now.

Sir, please don't move
until I get there.

Excuse me, I need to go.

What?

No, please don't do that.
That's not good for you.

No!

Sir, sir.

- Bring the medical supplies.
- Sorry? The gauze?

I'll do it, hold onto him.

(Moon Seung Jae)

Why? 10 more minutes.
Just 10 minutes.

I knew it. Mr. Park, hurry.

I just finished
my surgery two hours ago.

One of the patients
is going through delirium.

So what?

He pulled out his tubes,
and there's blood everywhere.

Why do you always come to me
when something happens?

There's Professor Koo Hee Dong
today.

If I wake him up
from his sleep, he will...

You know him well enough.
You're always here anyways.

But why is he bleeding
from pulling out his tubes?

What? You're right.
Why did that happen?

Who closed his surgical site?

Mr. Koo Dong Joon.

How's the patient now?

I informed Anesthesiology Department
and quickly prepared for operation.

He should be in there by now.

- Let's get changed first.
- Okay.

(Surgery duration, current time,
anesthetic duration)

- You're here.
- Yes.

Mr. Park, didn't we say bye
two hours ago?

How did you tie this up?

This wouldn't have happened
if you did it properly.

I did do it properly.

But how did this get loose?

People get strength out of nowhere
when going through delirium.

It was bound to happen
even if it was tied up well.

Seeing that there's blood,

it seems like the graft
got stuck to the tube.

We will find out
when we open this up.

How did Koo Dong Joon even
end up here?

It's probably because of his father.

What? Everyone knows that.

There's not a single person here
who doesn't know about that.

Mr. Choi always
cleans up for Mr. Koo,

and Mr. Park cleans up
for the other Mr. Koo.

What a perfect combination.

Stay focused.

Sorry.

(Taesan University Hospital)

Let's go.

Good morning.

- Hello.
- Hello.

Is everything good?

That was my patient.

Did you bring him up
to a room already?

Come on.
No matter how well the surgery went,

isn't that too early?

You should've asked first.

Ms. Lee, you're so hasty.

You're talking nonsense.

What?

He went up
to the surgery room just now.

The surgery room?

He pulled out his tube,
and a gush of blood...

- Why?
- You should know better.

Right. Thanks to you,
I got to spend a crazy night.

Oh, right. Right. The conference.

I have a conference this morning.
I must get ready quickly.

I have to read some papers too.
See you later.

Papers, my foot. My goodness.

When will you grow up?

Now, he'll be fine
even if he pulls it out again.

- Okay.
- You learned why...

- you must close up well, right?
- Of course.

You always answer well.

You bet.

Wire cutter.

Professor Koo,
did you sleep well?

How could I sleep well
at a hospital?

(Notes)

What is this?

"Endocarditis accompanied
by cerebral infarction?"

- Show me the echo test.
- Okay.

Goodness,
the valves are in such a mess.

The pesticide might have gotten
into the heart muscles.

For how long
did the patient take the antibiotic?

The patient took it
for more than four weeks.

But the patient was transferred here
for surgery due to constant fever.

Transfer?

The higher-ups are telling me
to lower the mortality rate.

Who accepted this transfer?

I'm pretty sure
it's Choi Seok Han, isn't it?

No, it's not. It's your patient.

It's my patient?

You scheduled it
to be your first surgery...

- on Friday.
- "Koo Hee Dong".

Why is my name here?

When... When did I accept this case?

No way. I can't take
the fall for this. No way.

Where's Park Tae Soo? Call him.

- Now?
- Right now!

Okay.

My gosh, this...

Dr. Park.

Hello.

Why is he like that?

Dr. Koo Dong Joon put the tube in
wrong and made a mess,

so Dr. Park had to clean up
the mess...

Seung Jae, keep moving.

Okay.

- That little...
- It wasn't a major problem.

Dr. Park.
Take a look at this patient.

Ms. Kim Seo Hee.

Send this patient
to another hospital.

Pardon?

I cannot operate on this patient
since my schedule won't allow it.

You should send her
to another hospital. Understood?

He's throwing it away again.
He threw it away again.

He wanted to get more patients.

Now that he doesn't want her,
he wants you to send her away.

I saw it coming. He wouldn't be who
he is if he didn't send her away.

This patient is from the rural area.

Sending her away won't be easy.

Excuse me?

He can't operate on her?

Dr. Koo Hee Dong's conference
schedule changed at the last minute.

Then another professor
can perform the surgery.

This is a big hospital.
He's not the only doctor here.

At this hospital,
he's the best surgeon.

Doctor Park, then...

what will happen to my wife?

Why do you think
we came all the way to Seoul?

We will find a hospital
with a surgeon as good as...

Professor Koo.

She can have surgery here,
but she'll die. That's the problem.

We can't handle a patient like this.

But is there anything
you can do for her?

Are you telling us
to hold a funeral for her?

Look for another hospital.

Okay.

Everyone knows she's a bomb.
No hospital will accept her.

No hospital in Seoul
will accept her.

Can't you just ask Professor Choi
to do the surgery?

Professor Choi?

If he gets another dead patient,
things won't be good for him.

Then she'll have to go back home
and wait for her death.

What?

No one will operate on her.
She's out of options.

I think Dr. Park changed a little.

He didn't change.
He's accepting reality.

Dr. Park has to live too, you know.

The renewal contract is just around
the corner. He can't cause trouble.

Gosh, what's the point of becoming
a doctor after studying so hard?

No one has a stable future.

You're one of them too.

Sure.

- Thank you, Professor Choi.
- My pleasure.

Professor Choi.

She's suffering from cerebral
infarction and endocarditis?

The patient continues
to run a fever.

But Professor Koo wants me
to send her to another hospital.

But no hospital will admit her.

- Right.
- So what's your plan?

- Will you send her back home?
- It's a high-risk case,

but she's still young.

I want to do her surgery.

If you do,

what will you gain
from this surgery?

Even if you get lucky
and succeed with her surgery,

Professor Koo won't forgive you.

No professor would let a fellow,

who saved a patient
he gave up on, stay.

And if the patient dies,
your career is over.

Bottom line. You will gain...

nothing from this.

That day.

When you saved my mother,

what did you gain from that?

The hospital chief was
against the surgery.

I got you.

Think only about your mother.

You worked hard to get here.

Hospital Director Yoon.

What brings you here?

Are you treating me
like an old geezer too?

No, I'm not. The board meeting
hasn't started yet.

- Please take a seat.
- Okay.

Professor Choi.

- Yes?
- My daughter,

Soo Yeon, is coming back.

Dr. Yoon is coming back?

I told her to come back.

I want you to teach her.

Me?

(Episode 4 will air shortly.)

Soo Yeon is coming back?

Yes, that's right.
She decided to come back to Taesan.

Of course,
you must give a final go-ahead.

There's no reason for me
to say no to that.

My dear niece is coming back
from the best hospital.

I must give her a warm welcome.

Thank you, Hyun Il.

By the way,

why is she coming back?

Cleveland Clinic.

Every doctor
dreams of working there.

If I were her,
I would never come back.

You asked her to come back,
didn't you?

Well, maybe she felt pity
on how I was all alone.

So he can't leave
the hospital to me?

Find out what
the hospital director knows about.

What?

No hospital is willing to take her,
so we should do the surgery?

You punk. Do you want
to see someone get fired?

What should you do if no hospital
takes him in? Tell me.

She's only in her 30s,
Professor Koo.

The endocarditis patient...

has cerebral infarction, so she
must get an operation right away.

Who told you to judge that?

You can't even do a proper job
at what you're told.

This is why I can't trust you.

Bring her guardian.

In this case,

going through surgery
could be more dangerous.

Even if she gets surgery,

it can't be guaranteed
that her heart will be intact.

And during the operation,

a blood clot from her heart
could travel to her head.

It's very likely that she'll die
in the process.

Then...

what should we do?

Medical treatment is the best.

Then will she survive from it?

Anyway,

medical treatment
is the same here and there.

Fortunately, my skilled junior
is in that hospital.

You should go back
and have her treated.

You've come this far,

so I'll do my best to reduce
the hospital fees.

Thank you, professor.

Then we'll go back tomorrow.

Go back now.

- What?
- I will have an ambulance ready.

You should go back comfortably...

and get her treated
as soon as possible.

Dr. Park, go through
the transfer procedures on her.

Doctor.

Hi, there.

Are you a doctor too?

Yes, why do you ask?

Isn't there any doctor...

who can treat any kinds of diseases?

Why?

I want to ask them to treat my mom.

Is your mom sick?

She says she isn't sick,

but I think she is.

Where is your mom?

Mom.

Where have you been?

I was looking for you.

You're here.

Let's go.

Go with your mom first.

Gosh, doctor. We'll go back now.

Thank you for what you've done.

She'll die if she goes back.

What did you just say?

Your wife will die if she doesn't
get an operation right now.

It's very likely that something
will go wrong in the process.

But she will pass away
in the end if she doesn't get it.

And I don't know how much time
she has left.

Are you telling me
to make a choice...

between a hopeless operation...

and a moment to be with her...

at least for a short period of time?

Then who will operate on her?

I heard Professor Koo Hee Dong
was the best.

I will do it.

You will?

I will do my best.

I will...

take the surgery.

Honey.

Operate on me, doctor.

I don't want to say goodbye
to our daughter.

(Dr. Park Tae Soo)

Hi, Dr. Park.

What?

Are you out of your mind? You...

Let me hang up for now.

That patient went back, right?

Yes, I got the ambulance
ready for her.

Good job.
You should've done it earlier.

But she doesn't seem
to have gotten on it.

Gosh, I told you
I'm going today for certain.

Come on. Wait a little.

We have an urgent patient.
Please open the operation room.

Okay, I'm leaving right now.

I thought you weren't taking
urgent patients for the CS record.

- I'm sorry.
- Is it Professor Choi again?

I have an appointment.

I'll open the room for you,
so do it with Dr. Jang.

What is it? It's not Professor Choi?

Is it you by any chance?

- Yes.
- Gosh.

Are you even taking in
urgent patients after him now?

Please help me.

What? Why?

Is it serious?

- Yes.
- Goodness.

I was going to attend
my school reunion after a while.

Let's finish it up quickly and go.
We're doing it right away, right?

Let's go 30 minutes later
when Professor Koo leaves work.

It's his patient?

What if he finds out?

He might forget about her face
after this weekend.

He can't remember his patients.

What's wrong with you again?
I won't do it. I can't.

- Professor Lee.
- What?

(Taesan University Hospital)

Scissors.

We'll be in trouble if we save her,
but it'll be worse if she dies.

Everything will be fine
if we save her.

- How's her blood pressure?
- So far, so good.

You're an anesthesiologist,
so what's there to worry about?

- I should be worried now.
- Focus.

Okay.

Her blood pressure is increasing.
What's wrong?

Her heart is beating too fast.
Please lower her head.

If a blood clot gets stuck
in her brain, we'll lose her.

- Prepare ice.
- Okay.

Clamp.

Hurry.

You should hurry with that.

The blood is flowing backward
heavily in the aortic valve,

so we'll apply
the cardioplegic solution directly.

Okay.

Metzenbaum scissors.

The valves have melted.
It's way too invisible.

- Do the suction more properly.
- Okay.

Is the ice not ready yet?

Hurry.

It's ready.

Park Tae Soo.

So is this the best
you could come up with?

- Professor, the patient isn't...
- Professor Choi.

- Let me explain.
- I'm sorry, Professor Choi.

The inflammation is worse
than what I saw in the echo test.

If you can't do it directly,
go around it.

You didn't even think of that?

You're a fourth-year fellow.
What are you doing?

- Put in the cardioplegia solution.
- Putting it in now.

- Is it going into the body well?
- Yes, it is.

Did her heart stop?

Yes, it did.

I'll go in after I scrub.
Make way for me.

(Operating)

Do not make decisions
or judgements alone next time.

- That goes for you too, Seung Jae.
- Yes, sir.

Bovie.

Doctor.

During surgery, everything
was normal from the brain monitor.

We did our best.
Let's wait and hope for the best.

Thank you so much.

Your mom won't be sick anymore.

You should go get some sleep with
Eun Ji. Come back in the morning.

Okay.

Thank you, doctor.

I'm sorry.

Will you apologize when the patient
dies on the operating table?

I couldn't let them just go back.

I was taught that we,
heart surgeons, must do our best...

to save the patient if there was
even a ray of hope...

And you were sure
you could save her?

Tae Soo.

At Taesan Hospital,
that's not important.

If you can't save a patient,
you must throw out the patient.

Seung Jae will stay with her.
Go home, and get some rest now.

Then why...

Why did you hire me?

You were just like me.

And that's not a compliment.

(Emergency Center)

You operated on
Professor Koo's patient again?

What was I supposed to do?
She had a daughter.

I finished it well
with Professor Choi's help.

Professor Choi, you, and me.

Only three of us
are from Haewon University.

Whenever I look at you, I'm nervous
it would be just me and him later.

- All right. I'll be more careful.
- Gosh.

- Woo Jin.
- What?

Look after my mom
during the weekend.

Are you working again?

You didn't take even a day off
this month.

Try to stay quiet this time.
Don't make a mess.

All right.

Tae Soo.

I'll look after your mother
this weekend, so don't worry.

Woo Jin.

Thank you.

Gosh, you don't have to thank me.

By the way, it's been three months
since your mom got admitted.

Time flies.

She was concerned
if you were eating your meals...

and if you had time to sleep.

She was full of worries about you.

("Conversations about Life
You Must Share with Your Son")

It's DCMP.

She had surgery for her abdominal
aortic aneurysm four years ago.

But as you know,

her heart wasn't good to begin with,
and it's gotten very big.

Her heart functions
are deteriorating too.

Getting a transplant
will be the only way.

Get her admitted, and put her name
on the waiting list.

Tae Soo, you're here.

Gosh, I woke you up.

- You should sleep some more.
- No.

I was just taking a nap.

Tae Soo, you were busy, weren't you?

A bit.

That's why I didn't call
although I thought about calling.

You should have called.

I've been at this hospital
long enough...

to know when not to bother you.

Is there anything you want to eat?

It's about time you must be
sick of the hospital food.

No, for me, it was delicious.

Thanks to my son,
I get to enjoy all this luxury.

They still don't have
an empty bed for me?

No.

They're a bunch of thieves.

It costs a fortune to stay
in this single room every night.

They give discounts
to hospital employees' families.

You don't get a discount
for the wards.

I already asked.

Tae Soo.

The last four years...

I got to live more than my share
thanks to you.

If something happens again,

just...

let me go.

Don't put me on life support.

It will be hard for you.

You're talking nonsense again.

- Do you understand?
- What?

You're going to live
for 30 more years?

Goodness,
I should earn a lot of money.

I ought to make sure
you enjoy your life.

We have an emergency patient
on our flight.

If there is a doctor or a nurse,
please contact our cabin crew.

We have an emergency patient
on our flight.

I'm a doctor.

He was in a car accident
two days ago.

He said he felt pain in his chest
after bumping into the handle.

That explains the bandage.
Let me see.

Goodness, his ribs are damaged.

1 or 2 broken ribs
won't be a big problem.

But he has air in his chest.

Hold on.

Did you check
if it could be emphysema?

If we could feel it with our hands,
he would have been dead already.

I'll get the air out soon.
Hang in there.

His pulse is weak.

His fingers are cold and sweaty.

- Are you in oriental medicine?
- I'm a CS.

Did you listen to his lungs?

I'm a CS professor.

This isn't my first time
seeing pneumothorax.

How could a professor diagnose
without such care?

What?

I can clearly hear his lungs.
It's not pneumothorax.

The sound of his heartbeat
isn't clear.

- How's his blood pressure?
- It's 70 and 50.

- I think it's cardiac tamponade.
- Cardiac tamponade?

(The heart can't beat
due to accumulation of fluids.)

How could we confirm that here?

We must check.
Roll up his shirt for me.

It is cardiac tamponade.

Prepare the longest needle,
and sanitize it.

Okay.

Is this a new device?

Show the screen to me.

Oh, okay.

The needle.

A syringe.

His blood pressure
is rising back up.

How long will it take
until our arrival?

About an hour.

- Have an ambulance ready.
- Okay.

Gauze.

- You called the hospital, right?
- Yes.

- Let's lift him in.
- 1, 2, 3.

- Call his family.
- Okay.

The tamponade is back.

This won't do. Let's go to
the closest hospital.

Okay.

Please go to the closest hospital.

Tamponade?

He's being transferred
with CPR treatment?

But we don't have
a chest surgery department here.

They have no chest surgeon.

I am. Tell them to open
one of their operation rooms.

We don't have an anesthesiologist
right now either.

What patient is this about?

The patient has cardiac tamponade.
He went into a cardiac arrest...

on his way to Myungsung Hospital,
so they're taking him here.

The doctor says she's
a chest surgeon.

I'll talk to her.

How long will it take?

Okay.

Get the operation room ready.
They'll be here in five minutes.

What are you doing?

You don't work in this hospital.

The manager will flip out
if he finds out about this.

We don't do surgeries on weekends,
so we have no one to assist it.

Prepare for the operation first.
I'll talk to him.

It isn't a big surgery.

Whatever the case, who are you to do
surgery in someone else's hospital?

I called you there to fill in,
not to open up a patient's chest.

He'll die if we don't operate
on him right now.

It's better that way.

What? They're there already?

Don't do it. Don't do anything,
and send them to another hospital.

We have no chest surgeon. Who'll
be responsible if it goes wrong?

Both you and I will be doomed.

- Let's move him. 1, 2, 3.
- 1, 2, 3.

You punk, send them elsewhere.

What are you waiting for?
Let's go in.

He's here to work part-time.

- Hey!
- You're still a doctor.

Can't you see this patient?

I'll operate on him first,
so come here before it ends.

Hey. Hey!

Let's go in.

To the second room.

You want to do it here?

Move.

Charge 100J.

- Charged.
- Clear.

Charge 200J.

- Charged.
- Clear.

Prepare for the surgery.
I'll do the anesthesia.

Let's go with CT-guided
tube pericardiostomy.

Let's open up his chest since we
don't know what has happened.

I'll just treat the tamponade
and transfer him. Are you a CS?

- Yes.
- You're not bad for a part-timer.

Please do a good job in assisting.

What are you talking about?

Not all chest surgeons are the same.

I've worked in Cleveland Clinic
for four years.

I think I'll be better
than a part-timer...

at least for the sake
of the patient.

Whatever the case, I'm in charge
of this hospital.

He's my patient.

Neither of us work in this hospital.

Let the better surgeon do it.

Are you that confident?

I would have asked you to do it...

if I had thought
you would do better than me.

(Taesan University Hospital)

It's his day off,
so he went outside to play.

Are you sure? He isn't
working part-time again?

No. It seemed like he was
going out on a date.

A date?

Yes, was she a doctor or a nurse?

That's good.

It'll be great...

if I get to see my son's wife
before I die.

Ma'am, is there anything
you want to eat?

Metz.

Suction.

No wonder why his heart
couldn't beat.

Get me the liquid for irrigation.

Have his vital signs gotten better?

- They look good.
- Let's transfer him for the rest.

Scalpel.

His blood pressure is a bit high.
Why don't you treat it first?

It's only temporary.

Which hospital do you work in?

I didn't mean anything.

We'd meet again...

since chest surgeons
are in such a small field.

His blood pressure is dropping.

- Bring us a saw.
- Okay.

(Treatment Room 2)

It's left ventricular
free wall rupture.

But blunt trauma
rarely causes LV rupture.

He had a blunt trauma?

His blood pressure is dropping more.

- Squeeze the blood pack.
- Okay.

Hand me Prolene 3-0 or 4-0
for suturing.

We only have thin ones.

Then hand me at least that.

It's no use.

The ruptured part has been
damaged already,

so it will only get worse
the more you touch it.

What kind of hemostatics
do you have?

Hemostatics? We have nothing.

We must transfer him.
Get an ECMO machine ready.

We don't have that either.

We still have to transfer him.

You know he could die on the way
if you don't stop the bleeding.

He can live only if he arrives.
He'll die if he stays here.

You'll transfer him like this?

Focus.

You've started this operation,
so you must be responsible for it.

Didn't that stuck-up hospital teach
you how to deal with such cases?

We must move him
to somewhere with a pump.

Glue.

- Bring me glue.
- What?

What? We don't have
any medical glue here.

Then go out, and buy it.

You'll use regular glue
on his heart?

Are you insane?

We should rather transfer him now.

He can't make it.
He'll die on the way.

Still, I can't let you
use regular glue.

What was in your head
when you came here?

Didn't you come here
to save him anyhow?

What about complications?

Talk about that
after we save him first.

You can't guarantee a success
even if you use it.

Since when did chest surgeons
do only guaranteed operations?

How can you call yourself
a chest surgeon?

I'm stopping you
because I'm a doctor.

I brought him here.

If you want him to live, shut
your mouth, and bring me that glue.

I've never seen anyone
use glue on people's hearts.

But you must've heard of such cases.

- Now!
- You still can't use it.

Didn't you hear the manager earlier?

Do you think letting him die
is a better option?

No, it's not.

Then hold the bleeding.
I'll go get it myself.

Where's
the nearest stationery store?

There is a hardware store
across the street, but...

Reconsider.

Glue. Where's the glue?

What?

Where's the glue?

It's in the storage.

Other adhesives are over there.

Did you reconsider?

They didn't have glue,
so I brought this instead.

Let's say that he survived
after using this glue.

What if his family sues you
for malpractice?

Do you have pericardium in storage?

We don't have such thing here.

Then what can I use as a patch?

Transfer him now.

Gloves. Give me a new pair.

I'll cut it up
and use it as a patch.

- What?
- We don't have much time.

If he dies, you're done for.

You cannot save every patient.

Think about the patients
you can save in the future.

Don't think about only the present.
Look beyond the present.

If I can't save a patient right now,
how could I call myself a doctor?

Here you go.

Hurry.

You will...

regret this.

That will be better than regretting
after this patient dies.

- Lower his blood pressure.
- Okay.

What are you doing?

(Heart Surgeons)

- This is Yoon Soo Yeon.
- I was just curious...

who saved Professor Choi Seok Han.

Soo Yeon, what have you done?

Let's just think about the patient.

Do you think you're the only one
thinking about the patient?

It ruptured again. I'll block it.
Start cauterizing.

Ma'am! Ma'am!

- He's having a cardiac arrest.
- Professor Choi.

There's a hole in his heart.
Don't lift your finger now.

What about my mother?

If I don't go now, my mom will die!
