Jae Hee...

Why are you so late?

I was checking up on Ms. Kim.

Here's your coffee.

Thank you.

Hoon!

That was Jae Hee. I'm sure.

Just wait and see when you get old. You can die from running like this!

You made it, didn't you? So you must know where Jae Hee is right now.

If I know where she is, I would have told you already!

You're trying to swindle me! Where is Jae Hee?

Are you sure you saw her?

I said I saw her!

The hell you did!

You saw someone else!

What?

Don't you think so? It isn't that hard to find people in South Korea.

If Jae Hee is here, why hasn't she reached out to you?

Did you get at least some of the money?

Not yet.

At least try to get the deposit first.

My Chinese contacts say that girl is in some sort of special facility.

A special facility?

It sounds like a horrendous place.

They say it should be top priority to get her out.

How much?

50,000 dollars just for that.

- Good job. - Of course.

But isn't the girl in North Korea?

I can tell you only if you want to die.

I don't care if I'll be selling it at a loss. Please get me the money as soon as possible.

How much do you need right now?

She told me that you need the money to find your girl.

I didn't tell him everything, Hoon.

Doing everything to make money so you can rescue your love

that's a great romance!

There are so many people who become fugitives because of loan sharks!

I have no more business with you. Please leave.

I like romance. It's pure.

I said, get out!

10...

20...

30...

40...

50,000 dollars!

You want it?

The job is simple. Just come join my surgery team.

A surgery team?

A team that will represent the cardiology department of Myung Woo Hospital!

Screw Myung Woo Hospital...

You don't want it?

Hoon!

I mean, if you don't want to...

Awesome! Very good.

Are you angry at me?

How can I not be? I wasn't aware that my own staff is leaving.

I was going to tell you first.

Fine. Tell me.

Why do you want to leave the cardiology department?

Am I interrupting your date?

Let's talk later.

Knocking before entering is common etiquette.

Do you still think this room belongs to you?

I heard you're looking to fill empty positions.

We're about to have a meeting to review candidates.

Then can I make a recommendation too?

Next candidate.

He graduated from Johns Hopkins Medical School.

He's quite young, but he has a lot of clinical experience.

And he also has published many articles in cardiothoracic journals in America and Europe.

I understand that the cardiology department is short on doctors

but isn't the budget the real problem?

The Chairman said he'll see what he can do.

Then I guess you can just hire someone that you like, Dr. Han.

Do we even need to see more candidates?

Can I recommend someone? As I am the former head of the department?

Of course.

Great.

When it comes to picking a cardiac surgeon...

I believe the most important criterion should be the candidate's surgery experience.

Please enjoy the superior surgical skills of my candidate.

How can there be no bleeding if he's performing an incision?

The human body is symmetrical.

If a highly-experienced surgeon cuts the exact middle of the chest...

It's possible to cause no bleeding.

Not only he's precise, he's also very fast.

He's definitely one in a million.

I agree.

His skills make me want to work with him.

So we all agree that he's well-qualified, right?

But I'd like to learn more about his resume.

You don't need to see his resume. I brought him here personally!

Come in, Dr. Park!

Hello, quack.

Dr. Choi!

It has been far too long!

I guess it's been about six months, Mr. Chairman.

Let's sit.

Can you just leave your post like that even though you're nearing retirement?

What have you been up to?

I'm just preparing for the final chapter of my life.

You're still young and healthy. That's nonsense.

By the way, Mr. Chairman

I heard you're looking to hire new doctors.

Why? Do you want to recommend someone?

Didn't I warn you not to come here again?

Well, I guess things just happened.

May I ask where you went to school if you don't mind my asking?

The police's job is to catch thieves, and the doctor's job is to heal patients.

Why is it so important to know where he went to school?

It's unfortunate that this practice of preferential treatment

is still alive in modern Korea!

It's not that we are judging based on his school.

Shouldn't we at least know where he studied if we are going to work together?

Fine. Just tell them!

I graduated from Pyongyang Medical School.

Yes, Pyongyang Med School...

North Korea? Pyongyang?

He's from North Korea?

I guess we're done too.

Dr. Han...

North Korean doctors are doctors too. Don't you think so?

Dr. Moon.

May I ask you whom he will be operating on, if he joins your team?

That'd be the prime minister...

I don't think the prime minister will want to show his heart to a North Korean refugee.

Don't you think so?

A North Korean refugee?

No sane patient would let a North Korean refugee to operate on him!

Damn.

My money!

Good.

I knew something was weird.

It was weird to see a good doctor like you at the rundown office of yours!

Did you want this money that badly? Why didn't you tell me that you're from the North?

Did I not make the cut?

Even if everyone else says yes, I will say no!

I hate communists!

This is all you get. It should be enough for gas.

Are you actually picking it up? What a prick...

You ran away to save your own life. Now you're saying that you want to save your love?

You're just some trash that's willing to sell your soul for money!

Yes, I'm willing to sell my soul for money.

I need it.

I can give my entire body and soul for this. Why? No?

What's wrong with that?

If you want to make money, you should start your own business.

Where's your pride as a doctor?

My pride?

I guess that sort of thing is important to quack doctors.

What?

A doctor's pride doesn't come from this coat.

Do you understand, quack?

Are you done speaking?

Hey!

Ta-da! To celebrate your new job.

Forget it. You can keep them.

So? Did you get the job?

Well, it didn't go so well.

Is this good?

Who is it?

It's me, Dr. Moon.

I'm sorry, Mr. Chairman. I didn't know it was you.

Come see me.

Do you really want to hire Park Hoon?

He definitely has proven himself.

Do you have a space in your team?

Yes, I'm sure he can make a space for him.

This team will operate on the prime minister's heart.

How can we include a North Korean refugee?

Then how about your team, Dr. Moon?

You're the one who recommended him.

Mr. Chairman, I did recommend him before. But I don't think I can anymore...

Fine. I guess more competition is always good.

More competition, sir?

The competition between Dr. Han's team and Dr. Moon's team

to represent this hospital.

Mr. Chairman, I'd like to remove myself from the competition.

The judging will be simple.

A plus for every successful surgery, and a minus for every unsuccessful surgery.

Mr. Chairman...

To make it more interesting, there'll be a reward for the winning team.

But I guess that also means that the losing team will face a punishment.

Do you think this is a fair competition?

Hey. Hyung Wook!

Byung Cheol! So good to see you!

What brings you here?

- You're still the same. - Of course!

- Take care of your mother. - Should I move her to your office?

Have her stay here. I'm selling the office.

What?

That's your only source of income!

I veto this decision as a partial investor!

I'm sorry. But I really need some cash.

Why did you change your mind all of a sudden?

Well...

Prime Minister Jang owes one to Park Hoon?

Yes. You know that I was his main physician, right?

Of course I do.

So just trust me and try your best with him.

No specific reason.

I guess I'm just a very generous person.

I mean, you don't have to do it if you don't want to.

But you must treat me like your master. Okay?

My master?

Okay. That.

Let's get something straight. You're not my master.

This is my master.

That's inappropriate! That's my money after all.

Fine! My master. I'm at your service.

Prepare for war.

We're going to have a bloody war against Han Jae Joon.

It starts today.

Yes, tonight.

Assemble everyone who is a third-year resident and up.

How about Dr. Yang?

Don't bring him.

Dr. Yang will be busy.

Let's put our past behind us and start over. Okay?

Dr. Park! Say hello to another member...

I told him to stay here! Where did he wander off to?

Hey! Are you crazy?

I'll pay once you get Jae Hee out of the labor camp.

I need to send them the money first to get her out!

Get her out first and show me the evidence. Otherwise, there won't be a penny for you.

You must have lost your mind!

Don't you dare try to swindle me. It could be a half-a-million dollar job!

You brat!

What happened?

She came to my hospital last month.

I couldn't believe it at first either.

Does Soo Hyun know?

Do you have the blood test results for the patient in room 1101?

It'll come in tomorrow.

Would you please tell them to hurry up?

Hello, Ms. Quack!

What are you doing here?

I'm trying to learn how quack doctors write charts.

And why are you learning the charts?

I work here now, quack.

Who said you can?

The boss told me, quack.

Pick up the phone.

Dr. Oh of the cardiology department...

Good job, quack!

What's wrong, quack? Are your hands itching to strike?

No, but my feet are itching.

What?

That little...

The cancer that began from her lung has spread to all over her heart.

If we operate on her, she might bleed to death.

She must be in a lot of pain.

We're giving her Oxycodone, but it's probably still very painful.

How about the surgery?

It's so dangerous, we can't even guess the chance of success.

He's totally uncontrollable!

There are many great doctors other than him.

Please reconsider.

The decision has been made.

But...

I'm here, dad!

My dear Dr. Oh is here!

I'm busy. Let go of my hand!

No matter how busy you are, you must receive my gift!

Do you like it?

Terminal lung cancer. A week, tops?

Why aren't you saying anything?

Have I left you speechless?

This is all you can do?

All I can do? She's your biological mother!

She only has a week to live!

So?

Did you expect me to completely break down?

She's your mother!

I believe my mother is at a spa right now playing golf with her friends.

That's my mother!

Well, I'm sorry.

I can only imagine all the hassle you must have gone through to get this woman here.

This... Woman?

When did Ms. Kim Eun Hee in room 1125 get here?

This morning.

Do you know her family?

Why are you asking me that?

She signed the Do Not Resuscitate order.

The DNR order?

By law, we can't perform CPR on her once her heat stops.

So we will just let her die?

That's the reason why she signed it.

That's nonsense.

She signed it a long time ago. Once we talk to the family again...

Don't do anything stupid.

Is this patient completely unconscious?

- She wakes up intermittently... - Wake her up.

Right now?

I need to ask her a question. Now.

Ms. Kim?

Ms. Kim!

Mom!

I finished med school! I also got licensed as a doctor.

I can make a lot of money now! So I want to live with you...

Mom... I'm so tired of that house.

This too shall pass. Go home.

Dr. Han needs to make a speech!

I thought this was only for third-year residents and up!

Then how did an anesthesiologist like you, Dr. Eun end up at a cardiology dinner?

Dr. Han told me to come.

Thank you.

Then, give it up for Dr. Han!

People will talk over me if I speak for too long.

We are all brothers and sisters here.

It is my wish that we're family.

The end.

Short and sweet! Applause!

This is when we toast. Let's raise our glasses!

Dr. Oh.

I'm sorry.

- For the cardiology department! - Cheers!

Emergency call for room 1125.

Get a defibrillator ready.

She signed the DNR order, doctor.

We can't just let her die! Bring the defibrillator!

Why are you leaving?

I'm sorry. Something came up.

Where?

I need to go. I'm so sorry.

One more time.

But doctor...

Now!

Again.

200 Joules.

She signed the Do Not Resuscitate order.

Dr. Oh?

Is she dead?

Are you talking about Ms. Kim?

She's in the ICU now.

[Intensive Care Unit]

What is it?

Didn't you know that she signed the DNR order?

How can I just let her die?

The patient wanted to die!

She signed it a long time ago.

Maybe she wanted to die since then.

What?

Don't you know?

Terminal cancer patients must endure excruciating pain

Even after the limitless amounts of painkillers we put in them.

That's why she signed the order not to revive her!

But because of you, she must endure the pain again.

Because of you.

You may have a point.

But if she didn't have a desire to live, my CPR wouldn't have worked anyway.

A desire to live?

She's barely breathing on life support. What kind of desire could she have?

What's the relationship between the quack and Ms. Kim?

The quack?

Never mind.

Would you like to try this?

Myung Woo University Hospital, Pyongtaek Branch.

This is Han Seung Hee speaking.

I'm going to the emergency room, Ms. Hong.

How may I help you?

Is Dr. Han Seung Hee still there?

Dr. Han?

She just left the room. May I take a message?

It's in regard to a patient named Kim Eun Hee.

Kim Eun Hee?

The grandmother?

Do you know her?

Of course. Her room was in my ward.

Then do you know who made her bracelet?

Yes, the leather one. It's mostly red.

That's probably not her's.

She wasn't fond of accessories, so she never wore them.

Then how about her family?

Family? I don't think she has any family members.

No family members?

Yes, she was alone ever since she was admitted here.

Why are you looking for her family?

China has managed to become a superpower with its rapid economic development.

Now it is going shoulder-to-shoulder with the United States.

And Japan is trying to revise its constitution

to expand the role of its defence force.

Understanding this geopolitical situation, this standstill with our brethren in the north can't last forever.

There are rumors that the president is secretly preparing for a South-North summit.

Is that so?

Then every South Korean citizen, regardless of their affiliation, should be behind the effort wholeheartedly.

How about the bribery charges that happened during the last primary race?

Is there any new development?

Rumor has it that the Prosecutor's Office has been working on it quietly.

Really?

If the Prosecutor's Office opens an inquiry, everyone including myself should comply with the office.

Please enjoy the rest of your dinner. I'm afraid I must step out.

Enjoy.

Someone from the Central Prosecutor's Office was here.

What's in it?

It's about the origin of your primary campaign fund.

I wonder if I should have flipped the table right after the primary.

So, this is how he's going to treat me after giving me the dingy prime ministership.

Is it true that he was bribed?

The inquiry was sent in paper. Why did you come here in person?

Are you taking all the blame?

Any comment?

I want to make it clear that the prime minister had nothing to do with this.

I also promise to fully comply with the investigation.

Can we do this in a call room?

We shouldn't, but that's what makes it fun. You don't want to do it?

Yes.

Good.

What's so good?

Dr. Keum. Perhaps you should've knocked first.

What kind of person are you?

Dr. Eun is here!

Hey! Where is Park Hoon?

You don't know?

Come!

Have you lost your mind?

Why do you want to operate on a patient that will die in two days?

I'm not saying that I'll operate now. When the emergency comes...

Is that grandmother your lost love?

Your reviving a DNR patient is crazy enough. I won't allow it!

She can survive without the life-support if I succeed!

Are you a god? How can you save a patient like this?

I want to save her.

Why?

Fine. I don't know why you want to do this.

But she's not in a condition to survive the surgery.

She'll die on the operating table.

I'll save her. I need to ask her a question.

Ask what?

I'll operate on her no matter what.

That nutjob!

Is she the reason you left early last night?

She's the same patient that I saw with Mr. Chairman.

The Chairman saw her?

He asked my opinion on operating on her.

What did you tell him?

You can look at her yourself.

I told him it's so dangerous, we can't even guess the chance of success.

But can you please operate on her?

You want to give a point to Dr. Moon's team?

We're competing against Dr. Moon's team.

Who is she anyway?

My mother.

My biological mother.

This lady.

Scalpel.

Forcep.

Metzenbaum scissors.

Cut and suction.

Again!

Scalpel.

I want to know why you brought her here.

I loved her after she had you.

I couldn't just ignore.

You're only buying time.

A week tops, apparently.

I want to protect her final moment.

I want to relieve her from pain.

I'm taking her life-support off. Please approve.

Soo Hyun!

I want to send her away.

From now on, I'm not your mother.

That gentleman right there is your father.

You must do everything you can to win your father's approval.

- Mom... - Silence!

Don't ever cry. Okay?

Go!

Don't ever come see me, or ever acknowledge me if I come see you!

I'd like to operate on her.

Is it because of Soo Hyun?

I can't approve.

I don't want to cause her any more pain.

Mr. Chairman.

If the patient dies during surgery, it'd be a disgrace to the cardiology department!

But...

And you must be aware that you're competing against Dr. Park.

Just one more time.

Mom.

[Oh Soo Hyun]

Please leave a voicemail for...

Please save my dear Jae Hee.

No, Jae Hee.

My dear doctor... Comrade Park Hoon.

Goodbye.

Jae Hee!

Go away.

I don't have energy to pick fights with you.

Can you operate?

I'm asking you. Can you operate on her?

I want to. But I can't.

What are you talking about?

The chance of success is too low.

Are you saying that there's a chance?

A very low one.

Even if the surgery succeeds, she'll be in even more pain as you said.

I wanted to save her because I have a question to ask her.

But I don't think I can.

I'm not the nicest guy in the world, but I really can't do this again.

You're the one who said she has a desire to live!

It was my misjudgment. I'm sorry, quack.

I don't need your apology.

Be responsible for your words.

If you operate on her

I'll pay you whatever you want.

I can't.

Please do it.

Who's this patient to you?

My mother.

I have something to tell her.

I beg of you.

Please save her.

You're wasting your time.

I still want to try.

I rejected Dr. Han already.

Someone else is doing it.

Someone else?

Stop the surgery.

I don't know whom you are. This is the surgery requested by her family.

I'm also her family!

And

he's the chairman of this hospital.

If you don't stop now, I'll take away your scalpel forever!

I'm sorry.

I'm afraid the surgery fee has already been paid.

Focus on saving the patient.

Scalpel.

Mr. Chairman. I told him to not do it.

Please know that I didn't tell him to do it! That's the truth!

Get the oxygen supply running.

It's dropping from 65.

Get the defibrillator. Quickly!

Charge 20 Joules.

Charge 50 Joules.

Defibrillator.

50 Joules!

Again!

Why are you stopping?

The heart isn't beating yet.

What are you doing?

Thank you for your hard work, everyone.

What are you talking about?

I'll finish up.

It's not over yet.

It's not over yet!

It's over.

It's not over yet.

I'm sorry.

What are you doing?

Can't you see?

Stop it.

- Stop it! - Back off!

I need to tell her something.

I need to tell her.

Why did you do it?

Why did you do it to me?

Why to me?

On May 13th, 2014 at 2 a.m.

The patient expired during a tumor removal surgery.

- She isn't dead yet! - What do you think you're doing?

Back off!

Stop it!

Stop!

Revive her!

Bring my mom back to life!

I'm sorry. She has passed away.

I'm sorry.
