DOCTOR SLUMP
Ha-neul, look here. Over here.
Hey!
- Where are you going?
- Come back!
Gosh, come here.
Ba-da, do a cool pose.
That's it.
All right. Stand over there.
Let's take one together.
Look at the camera.
That's nice.
- Cheese.
- Cheese.
- Okay.
- Okay, another one together.
- Ba-da, open your eyes wide!
- Ba-da, look at the camera.
On the day Ha-neul was born,
they say the sky over Busan
was especially clear and incredibly blue.
That's why they named her "Ha-neul."
And they named me
"Ba-da" just to match hers.
MY SON, LIVELY LIKE THE SEA
And we lived up to our names.
Her grades kept soaring
as high as the sky.
And my grades stayed at sea level.
She was sad even when she aced a test.
She said she got a question right
from a guess, not her knowledge.
- I was happy just to get 25%.
- Yes! We're having pizza!
Because Mom would buy us pizza
whenever Ha-neul aced a test.
And so, we lived different lives.
Hey, Ba-da. Let's order jajangmyeon.
- Me too.
- I want jjamppong.
Ba-da.
That's my sister.
I'm not hungry.
Hey.
I told you not to bring your friends over.
Hey.
See you later. I'll be back, Ha-neul.
I liked hanging out with friends,
but she liked studying more.
Mom makes the best short ribs.
I liked delicious food,
but she liked studying more.
I was especially romantic,
but she had no interest in love.
Are you okay?
Nam Ha-neul!
FALL, 2009
Hey.
You know me, right?
I'm our school's best fighter.
Okay. Let's say you do.
I like you.
How do I put it?
You pique my interest
because we're so different.
You're precious, and I don't want
anyone else to have you.
Like the last cigarette in a pack.
I don't understand.
Why am I a last cigarette?
An A is an A, and a B is a B.
Saying an A is a B is confusing.
Hey.
I wasn't finished.
Where are you going? I like you.
Sir.
- He's not letting me study.
- What?
You punks.
You brats.
How dare you interrupt her studies?
Get away from her.
Dating was just something
that got in the way of her studies.
SUMMER, 2011
The only thing that made her swoon
was the arrival of new textbooks.
The only time her heart raced
was when she ran out of breath
dashing up the stairs.
SPRING, 2023
But that very person…
started to resemble me.
She'd grin from ear to ear while texting.
ATTRACTION PRIVÉ, UIJEONGBU
MINE
What are you doing? Give it back.
- Hold on.
- What? Give it back!
Go away.
Why do you need to know
popular dating spots?
Come on. Mom!
She now has someone
who she wants to visit nice places with.
She seems to be in deep thought right now.
It must be
because of that special someone.
- Ha-neul.
- My goodness!
- Tell me if you ever need advice.
- What?
I'm just saying
that I'm here for you.
What are you talking about?
How dare you, you punk?
Where did you put it?
What?
Seriously!
Why would you steal my wallet?
I just wanted to split
50,000 won with you.
What's with you and 50,000 won?
Why is it always that amount?
It's because I need it to go on dates.
There's this girl I'm interested in.
Again? Why do you have
so many girls you're interested in?
Hold on.
- Wait. You steal anything else?
- What's with you?
- Did you?
- No.
I didn't.
I'm telling you I didn't.
How can I believe you?
Let me count how much money there is.
Ha-neul has a happy problem now.
DOCTOR SLUMP
I'm sure of it.
I LIKE YOU
Jeez, I should put a lock on my wallet.
What are you up to?
What could this be?
I really like you.
I like you.
But I really like you.
He definitely said he liked me.
We even held hands.
Then, that means we're dating.
But… we could still be friends
since he never said we were dating.
Why are you chopping up so much cabbage?
I'm going to make
some fresh kimchi and pickles.
I see.
By the way, Mom…
How did you and Dad start dating?
Why all of a sudden?
Well…
I'm writing a dissertation on emotions.
When someone confesses their love to you,
the level of dopamine,
a neurotransmitter, rises in your brain.
Anyway, how did you begin dating?
Back then, your dad lived next door.
Then one day,
he offered to buy me some omurice.
It was an expensive dish back then,
so I said okay.
Then, he offered to buy me pork cutlets.
And after some time…
We had you.
Did he ever
ask you to be his girlfriend?
I was just suddenly curious.
Are you officially dating
if you know you like each other?
Or do you have to actually say it
and ask them out?
I'm just confused.
You don't have to say it out loud.
If you like each other, go on dates,
and hold hands, you're dating.
Really?
- Holding hands means you're dating?
- You bet!
That's how it was back then.
I see. Back then.
Tell me if I understood you correctly.
Your friend drank with this guy,
and he got drunk.
Then, he said he liked her
about five or six times.
- They held hands too.
- Yes.
- Then, that's definitely dating.
- Really?
- Is that how it works these days?
- "These days"?
Uncle Tae-seon,
when was your last relationship?
I broke up with Dan-bi
while on leave during my military duty.
- So about 20 years ago?
- What?
That means it was in the late '90s.
The end of the century.
There's not much difference
in dating between back then and now.
Of course, there is.
That was 20 years ago.
That's when you had pen pals
and had dates over the phone.
Is there anyone I know
who's had dates recently?
- You rang?
- My goodness!
Hey, when did you get here?
Uncle Tae-seon offered 50,000 won a day
to do dishes, so I'm helping out.
Jeez, 50,000 won again?
You might as well
just change your name to that.
So…
That story you just told
was about Mr. Rooftop, right?
I knew something smelled fishy.
You two held hands?
No, we didn't.
- I really was talking about my friend.
- Is that so?
It totally sounded like you
and Mr. Rooftop, but I'll let it slide.
Anyway, you can't count that as dating.
- Why not?
- It's called the flirting phase.
It's like they're going out,
but it's not official.
Even if they've held hands
or done something more,
if they didn't make it official,
it doesn't count.
Jeez, dating is tricky these days.
If they're not dating but held hands,
it still doesn't count?
Of course not.
It's like adding items
to your shopping cart every day.
They're not yours
until you pay for them, right?
Gosh, that's a wise saying.
Is that so?
What's wrong? It's not about you,
but why are you so serious?
Well…
I became sad thinking
about your future. So what?
Bye, Uncle Tae-seon.
That definitely wasn't about me.
Bye.
Jeong-woo, are you home?
Jeong-woo.
Can we talk for a minute?
- Yes, we can.
- My goodness!
- Why were you looking at my phone?
- I didn't mean to.
I can't help having 20-20 vision.
- What is it?
- What?
You wanted to chat.
You see…
Can you give me a glass of water?
Sure. Come on in.
- Here's the water you ordered, ma'am.
- Thanks.
What's making you so hesitant to talk?
You see…
So…
Jeong-woo, are you in there?
- Yeah.
- What? Why is he here?
- Hey, we need to talk!
- Hold on.
The bathroom. I'll be in there.
Why? Why are you hiding?
We can just say we were talking.
- No.
- Jeong-woo!
He's already suspicious, so if he sees us…
Anyway, no.
I'll be in the bathroom,
so make him leave quick.
- What?
- Jeong-woo!
- Coming.
- Jeong-woo!
Ba-da, what brings you here?
Why do you think so?
Because I need to talk to you.
Hey, what is it?
What business do you have here?
Jeong-woo, let's have a man-to-man talk.
What? To talk about what?
Sure.
Please go out with Ha-neul.
- What do you…
- Shut up!
I know it's shameless,
and I feel terrible for asking this.
- What?
- But I'll be honest.
I'm a bit annoyed
by how you're toying with her.
I never toyed with her.
Yes, you did. You took her to Sokcho
and went to her in Hwabon.
You confused her so much
and then said you were just friends.
Hey, that's--
I gave you the benefit of the doubt
and thought you pushed her away
due to your situation.
But everything's been resolved now.
So why are you playing around with her?
I never did that to her.
I know you guys held hands!
Unbelievable.
She asked me for advice,
saying it was for her friend.
But she has no friends.
It's definitely about her.
You damn lunatic!
I heard you confessed your love
to her yesterday and even held her hand.
You never officially said you're dating,
so imagine how agonizing it is for her.
Ha-neul's dying to go out with you,
so she's asking around like crazy.
So…
spare her the anxiety
and go out with her.
I'm done for.
I thought we already were.
- What?
- Her and I.
I thought we were dating since yesterday.
What?
That's cold!
- What was that sound?
- Nothing.
The pipes have been bursting lately.
I'll discuss this with Ha-neul,
so you can go now.
You could always back out,
so we should write a contract.
A man never takes his word back.
I would never do that.
- Are you sure?
- Of course.
Except for her depression…
Wait. And the way she dresses…
And her nasty temper,
she's pretty kind. Okay?
Treat her well.
All right, bye. Be safe.
Oh, dear.
I'm sorry.
Ha-neul.
He left.
Why did you turn on--
Hey, are you okay?
Let's first get out of here.
Why are you drenched?
Gosh.
I don't know what happened in there.
But did the pipes really burst?
Is it true?
What?
Are we really dating?
Then…
we weren't?
But we even held hands yesterday.
Did you do that
without intending to go out with me?
Were you toying with me?
- Are you playing around with me?
- No.
I'm not like that.
Me neither.
I like you.
I don't want to be friends anymore.
Me neither.
But I wasn't dying to go out with you.
It wasn't like that.
I was the one who was dying
to go out with you.
But you're all drenched.
It's okay.
I'll give you my clothes.
You'll catch a cold. Hang on.
What's there to wear? Not this one.
Have some warm tea.
- Okay.
- It's hot. Be careful.
- Is it okay?
- Yeah.
Right. Hold on.
Don't look.
What's this? Did you find these outside?
No, I carefully chose them
at the flower shop just for you.
How sweet of you.
All I could ever smell were alcohol swabs.
These flowers smell so nice.
Want to hang out with me tonight?
Let's go on a date.
Sure. Let's do that.
Okay.
- This is huge though.
- Right?
Look. You can't see my hands.
Yeah, I can't see them.
That was so sudden.
What? Was I supposed
to book an appointment?
No, not necessarily but…
Now that you're my girlfriend,
it feels so good.
Me too.
How pretty.
Ha-neul. Where have you been?
I've been waiting for you.
You should be excited today.
Gosh.
You're going to get a boyfriend.
To be honest, I know your story
was about Mr. Rooftop.
So I met with him,
and we had a man-to-man talk.
He'll ask you out soon.
Aren't you grateful?
That'll be 50,000 won.
Never mind.
This is worth 100,000 won, right?
One hundred thousand won.
One hundred thousand.
Let me just hit you 100,000 times.
- You'll be the death of me!
- But I was only helping you!
You punk!
Should I call him or not?
What are you mumbling about?
What? If I mumble to myself
or scream at a park,
what's it to you?
Well…
I just felt bad.
What?
Looking back on it, I think I did
encourage you to call Jeong-woo.
So I think I feel a little bad.
And I think I owe you an apology.
Jeez.
You think? What?
All you need to say is just "I'm sorry."
What's that? Why is his number on screen?
He cursed you out
and said to never call again.
There was a misunderstanding.
It wasn't Jeong-woo. It was some woman.
What woman?
She took his phone from him
and started cursing at me in an accent.
You didn't bother to call him
when he was struggling.
So how dare you call him now?
Just get lost
before I throw a bucket
of freezing water on you.
But her voice sounded
too mature to be his girlfriend.
And it couldn't have been his mother
since his family's originally from Seoul.
And she's in the US right now.
I wonder who that angry woman was.
I think I might know that woman.
How?
The truth is Jeong-woo
is living on my friend's rooftop.
What?
Did you wait long?
Even if I did, I didn't.
You're so silly.
- Let's go.
- Let's go.
Jeong-woo!
What in the world?
Jeong-woo!
Why didn't you tell me?
I would've called sooner
if I knew you were struggling!
Why didn't you tell me?
What's wrong with you?
How did you know I was here?
Weren't you my blind date?
Hong-ran explained everything.
She said Jeong-woo
was living at your place.
What is this?
So the plastic surgeon
on your blind date was you?
Yes, but that's not important.
I would've come and taken you home
had I known about this.
Here on this worn-out rooftop…
You wouldn't have stayed at a place
worth just 300,000 won a month!
- It's actually 500,000 won.
- Plus maintenance fees?
Why would you ask about that?
Gosh, I'm truly sorry.
Could you give us some privacy?
We have so much to catch up on.
Don't be absurd. Can you give us privacy?
It's our first date--
I have so much to tell you.
I was worried sick about you, Jeong-woo.
You probably think everyone
turned their backs on you.
But a lot of people were worried like me
and didn't call
because they didn't want to bother you.
You can't give up like this, okay?
You know what?
Why don't we talk over a meal?
- Look, I--
- He's right. I'm fine, so go ahead.
No. Dae-yeong, I--
Call me afterward.
Wait, Ha-neul. Let me go.
- Don't leave!
- I truly missed you.
Don't leave. Let me go.
- Gosh, I…
- Let me go.
I'm really sorry!
What are you doing at a place like this?
HANYANG HWARO
Hurry up.
I'm coming.
- Come on in.
- Hello.
Hello.
Can we sit over there?
Here.
- What are you doing?
- Why aren't you sitting here?
You used to sit right down
whenever I pulled out a chair for myself.
Jeez.
Why have you matured so much?
It's heartbreaking.
What are you talking about?
You hated how I used to act.
Yes, it annoyed me.
But I much prefer that over this.
Seeing you timid like this makes me feel…
Sir, could we get five servings of beef?
- Sure.
- Why so much?
Don't be intimidated by the beef.
It's not that expensive here. Eat up.
You're even intimidated by beef now.
- Here.
- Thanks.
- It's good.
- Eat up.
You must've missed eating meat.
Stop being so dramatic.
Ha-neul's mother grilled
some meat for me yesterday.
- Beef?
- Pork.
I see.
Why are you so curious
about such trivial things?
I want to know everything about you.
I want to know how you've been living
and if it's been tough.
What's gotten into you today?
You sulked so much after that incident.
You nitpicked everything about me
and twisted my words like a pretzel.
Why the sudden change?
You're right.
I was bitter after that incident.
I hated you.
I envied and resented you at times.
But I realized something.
Seeing you suffer made my heart break.
That's when I realized
that I still cared and loved--
Are you seriously eating right now?
Are you done eating?
Should we go now?
I'm really busy today!
Hey, who's busier?
You, the unemployed one?
- Or me, the one who runs a clinic?
- Hey.
Hey.
- You have a good point.
- Right?
So eat up.
It's burning.
Thanks.
So tell me. Have you sorted
your thoughts out now?
I'm glad the incident's been resolved.
But a part of me can't help but wonder
why something like this happened to me.
To be honest,
I came by to tell you something.
What's on your mind?
What? I said I'd call when I got back.
Why are you outside?
I thought you'd be back around this time.
I couldn't wait to see you.
Well done. Let's go.
I can't wait for our date.
Hold on.
Hey.
Jeong-woo, what are you up to?
I'm on my way there. Can we talk?
Right now?
Now is… Today's pretty busy.
Let's take a rain check.
Man, you're hurting my feelings.
I helped you with your case,
but you stopped calling when it ended.
I was going to call you, but--
I'll be at home. Go meet him.
I really can't make any time today.
I'll call you later. I'm sorry.
What? Didn't he want to see you?
- But I promised to hang out with you.
- Still.
I'm not that loyal of a friend.
I'm already upset
about wasting time with Dae-yeong.
Let's go.
So tell me.
What's your definition
of an exciting date?
You'll find out.
It's going to be very sweet.
"Sweet"?
Gosh. I wonder what kind of date it'll be.
What's gotten into you?
You'll find out.
My heart's already swooning.
This dissertation
has been quite interesting.
I knew the recent trend
was discharging patients sooner with ERAS.
But at the Mayo Clinic,
75% of their patients
were discharged on the same day
of their mastectomies thanks to ERAS.
It was less than 10% before ERAS.
I see.
What do you think?
I'm not sure.
Can you be more enthusiastic?
Sure thing.
I didn't know
the difference would be that big.
But it'd be great to apply ERAS
to breast reconstruction surgery.
Right? There will be
less complications too.
Right.
By the way, was this really
the date you had in mind?
Yes. Why?
What? Nothing.
I didn't know if this was a date
or a conference.
But don't worry about it.
By the way, you do know
what "sweet" means. Right?
I've always wanted read and debate
over dissertations with my boyfriend.
So I thought this would be
a very sweet date.
It does sound sweet.
Right?
Yes.
But what are we doing next?
I booked a study cafe.
I thought we could write
a dissertation together.
Is there a topic
you'd like to write about?
But I'm not planning to research all day.
I even prepared a fun game.
- A game?
- Yeah.
- What kind of game?
- All right.
Let's see.
Are we slapping each other's wrists?
- Guess what this is.
- What is it?
A vein injection.
Next. Guess what this is.
- What could it be?
- An artery injection.
- We'll do a timed quiz--
- Follow me.
What? Why?
- Come here.
- Why?
Gosh, it's blinding.
Why are we at a movie theater?
You wanted to watch a movie
once things were settled.
You wanted to have popcorn
while sitting next to someone you liked.
You remembered that?
To be honest, I didn't want to
go on an ordinary date,
like watching a movie
or going to a coffee shop.
But I think it would be okay for you.
This is our first day as a couple.
Do we really have to read
and debate over dissertations?
Fine. We can do that
on our one-year anniversary.
Fine.
What was the last movie you saw?
Let's see. I was 12.
They played a movie
at my elementary school.
I think it was
The Shredder and the Vampire.
- Follow me.
- What?
THEATER
Right now!
To your right! Where are you going?
- Good.
- Good.
This came out nice. I'll take it.
I like that one the most too.
Then, I'll take this one.
Why are you staring? Were you touched
because I let you have it?
No.
I don't want a girlfriend
who yields and is understanding.
You excused yourself earlier
after Dae-yeong asked you to.
I mean, I felt bad
that you were always alone.
I was happy to see you have a visitor.
He sounded genuine,
so I wanted to give you time to talk.
Is that why you told me
to go see Kyung-min too?
Well…
You seemed hesitant
about refusing to meet him.
From now on,
I'd like it if you stopped
suppressing your feelings
and yielding to others.
It hurts my heart to see you
trying to be understanding of everything.
What do you mean?
You're always suppressing your feelings,
understanding, and yielding to others.
Maybe that's why you became so weary.
- Can I ask you something?
- What?
There must've been a point
when you realized
you were exhausted.
A pivotal moment
that made you visit a psychiatrist.
The real reason why you quit your job.
Stuff like that.
Was working at the hospital tough?
Or… did something happen?
CAN I HOLD
What are you up to?
Ha-neul was doodling.
- Mom, want to hear some good news?
- What?
Did you get a job?
No, but I think Ha-neul and Mr. Rooftop
are going to start dating.
- I know.
- How did you know that?
She said earlier she was writing
a dissertation on human emotions.
She asked about how relationships begin
and if you had to
officially say you're going out.
Why would she write about that now?
It was obviously about herself.
You picked that up quickly.
Of course. I'm her mom.
Gosh. She's been struggling these days,
so I hope a relationship
will help her feel better.
Don't be nosy and just play dumb.
I already was nosy.
I told her I knew about it,
and I begged him to date her.
For what? She would've managed on her own.
It's okay.
For someone like her to go
to such lengths and ask us for advice,
it means she needed our help.
She never brings up stuff
she doesn't want to talk about.
Gosh.
Nothing happened.
Nothing happened at the hospital.
I was just exhausted. That's all.
Then, that's a relief.
You don't need to walk me to the door.
I've always wanted to try it.
But you said we lived so close.
Still.
- Bye.
- Jeez.
All right. Bye.
What's this?
WEDDING INVITATION
MIN KYUNG-MIN & JUNG YU-RI
- What's wrong?
- Kyung-min said earlier he was nearby.
I guess he wanted
to give me his wedding invitation.
Wedding invitation?
- Is he getting married?
- Yeah.
I think in two months.
Could you give me a second?
Jeez, Kyung-min.
Hey.
Why did you come by
when I was out? Now, I feel bad.
All right.
Congratulations on the wedding.
I'll see you soon.
Bye.
Ha-neul, should we order food
and have some beer?
No, thanks.
I'm suddenly not feeling well.
Okay. Go home and rest up.
- Good night.
- Good night.
- Are you up?
- Yeah.
I thought maybe
we could have lunch together.
I'm sorry, but I'm outside right now.
You're outside?
Where are you?
I'll just… call you back later.
Sure. Okay.
Bye.
MENTAL HEALTH CLINIC APPOINTMEN
Right, the clinic. I need to go.
How have you been?
What brings you here today?
Well…
I'd like some more medication
in addition to the what I've been taking.
Some additional medication that I can take
when my heart aches a lot
or when I'm struggling.
Did you go through something
where you found yourself struggling?
Excuse me. My name is Yeo Jeong-woo.
I have an appointment at 2:00 p.m.
I see, Mr. Yeo.
You can go in right away.
Okay.
Because he always told me…
that I was doing well.
Why did she cry?
Why does she look so sad as she walks?
She looked so devastated as she left.
I had no clue why,
and that broke my heart.
Hey, where are you?
Someone suddenly wanted to see me.
I'll call you back later.
Okay. Make sure to call me.
Gosh, I am spent.
Nurse Do, why don't we all eat--
No, thank you.
I wasn't even done talking.
Nurse Do, are you being serious right now?
- Dr. Bin.
- Yes?
You have a guest.
A guest?
Jeong-woo, when did you get here?
Gosh, you have a nice clinic.
Right? Isn't it nice?
I thought I'd be successful,
so I took out a huge loan.
But I'm struggling to pay it back.
- Sit down.
- Okay.
Goodness.
So…
What brings you here?
Do you want to talk about something?
I just thought I should
tell you in person.
You're saying no?
That's right.
Gosh, Jeong-woo.
Come on. Let's just work together.
It'll be tough for you to take out
another loan, hire workers,
and open another clinic.
I'm sorry.
I'm really grateful for your offer.
- But now's not the time.
- Why not?
There's this girl I like,
but she's struggling right now.
So I think I should stay by her side.
Is it bad enough to not to work?
Not really.
But I think she'll be even more dejected
to see me get a job when she's unemployed.
Anyway,
I felt I owed you an explanation
since you gave me that good offer.
I decided to tell you after some thought,
so don't take it too hard.
I should get going. Sorry.
At least stay for some tea.
It's okay.
BUSAN'S ORIGINAL MILMYEON
NAM HA-NEUL
Jeong-woo.
- What are you doing here?
- Nothing much.
- Hello.
- Goodness.
You always look so weak,
like a dog that hasn't eaten anything.
Come upstairs.
I bought some chicken,
so have a drumstick if you want.
Yeah. Let's go.
- Come on.
- No, I'm okay.
- Let's go.
- No, I'm fine.
No, ma'am. Why are you doing this?
Let's have some chicken.
- I don't--
- Let's go in.
Hold on. I have some pancake mix,
so let me make some jeon.
Ha-neul will be home soon.
See her before you go if you want.
I think it's best if I just go.
So goodbye.
Where are you going?
Jeong-woo, we need to talk.
Talk? About what?
What do we need to talk about?
Jeong-woo.
Are you going out with Ha-neul yet?
Well, you see…
I guess you didn't ask yet.
You're more shy than I thought.
Well, do you need my help?
What?
"Ha-neul."
"My love for you is as big
as the sky and the Earth."
"If we go out, I'll treat you
and your brother well."
"I'll give him a lot of pocket money too."
How did that sound?
- Not good.
- Really?
Then…
Look…
"Ha-neul."
"We first met as students.
But now, we've reunited as adults."
"Instead of graduation photos,
how about we shoot
some wedding photos this time?"
Lambada, go buy some cooking oil.
Darn it. We're having
an important discussion.
Just forget about the jeon!
He's not your son-in-law.
You don't need to prepare a feast.
Just a minute.
I'm going to lose my mind.
I'm going to lose my mind even more.
Goodness.
My goodness.
By the way…
How do you know Kyung-min?
Do you like Ha-neul?
Don't be ridiculous.
Single all my life? I've dated before.
Is he getting married?
How have you been?
Good. It's been a while.
How have you been?
I've just been resting.
Why did you want to see me?
Well, I just thought you should know.
Professor Min Kyung-min
is getting married.
I heard.
Do you also know
about tonight's goodbye party too?
He's quitting work too.
But he got that position recently.
He's getting married to the daughter
of a pharmaceutical company CEO,
so he'll be working there soon.
Why did he do that
if he was going to quit so soon?
It's obvious. The company would benefit
if his resume showed he was a professor.
Let's be honest.
You wrote that whole dissertation.
He put himself down as the sole author,
took all the credit,
and became a professor.
I can't believe he's putting
Dr. Woo in his position.
I sometimes think about that day.
On that day,
everything was perfect.
I solved a hard question
that I'd struggled with for days.
FIRST ROW, FIRST SEA
I was assigned to a seat in the corner
where I could concentrate well.
DADAEPO GIRL'S HIGH PE TES
I wasn't confident about the PE test,
but I even aced that.
That day was full of only good things.
I thought,
"I guess everyone gets at least one day
that shines like this in their lives."
DAD
What? I didn't know he called.
Honey!
Open your eyes!
Honey, please wake up!
Honey, please open your eyes!
Man-seok!
Honey!
Honey!
At the end of that perfect day,
unbearable misfortune was waiting for me.
- Thank you for coming.
- Poor thing.
- This way, please.
- Goodness.
When my dad took his last breath,
I was basking in happiness.
I couldn't even say
goodbye to him one last time.
- Those thoughts haunted me for a while.
- Dad…
Ever since then, whenever I'd feel happy,
I'd suddenly feel…
anxiety within my heart.
"How long will this happiness last?"
Every moment…
It feels like I'm struggling
with guilt, anxiety, and unease
in every single moment of my life.
So maybe that was why…
when he complimented me,
I felt at peace.
Because he always told me…
that I was doing well.
It's tough, right? Take a look at these.
What? How did you…
You know these were
hard to come by, right?
Thank you so much.
No worries. Good luck.
Things like this can happen,
so you need to be cautious.
That'll be all for today. Good work.
I know you're all exhausted from a lot
of night shifts but stay strong.
Right. Don't make Ha-neul
stay up two nights in a row.
She's writing a dissertation right now.
Okay, good luck.
Right.
You've never done
a Whipple procedure, right? Want to try?
Do you mean that?
Can I really participate?
Normally, no.
You know you learn a lot
from major surgeries, right?
I was proud of how hard you work,
so I got the professor's permission.
Thank you so much.
I'll work hard to prepare for it.
He made me rely on him.
Sir, congratulations
on becoming assistant professor.
Another spot will open for you soon.
Let's enjoy some good food today.
- Thank you for the food.
- Dig in!
Yeah, go ahead and eat.
Why did you do it?
I wrote the entire dissertation,
so why did you omit my name?
That?
I thought it'd be best
if I was the sole author this time.
Both Dr. Oh and Dr. Kwon did the same.
So I should too.
Theirs also have IFs of ten,
but this is all I have.
But I wrote everything.
You can't be the sole author--
This is your problem.
Are you really that dense?
Do you have to do this?
You want my life to be ruined?
Ha-neul, I'll recommend you
when a new spot opens up.
So let's just sweep this under the rug.
The professor's agreed
to it too, so that's it.
Professor Min.
It's so sad to see you
leave suddenly like this.
- That's right.
- Are you sure? You look pretty happy.
Not at all! Seriously.
Thank you for everything. Let's drink.
- Good job, everyone.
- You too, Professor.
Great job.
- Great job.
- You too, sir.
- Have some more, Dr. Woo.
- Sure.
- Good work.
- Thank you.
- Great job.
- Thank you.
Dr. Nam.
Ha-neul, what brings you here?
Am I not welcome here?
You are.
Thank you for coming.
I'll pour you a drink.
Thanks.
What are you doing--
Is it okay to tell?
Here in front of everyone?
Live an honest life, will you?
Stop!
- Are you headed home now?
- Hello.
Right. Did you have
a nice talk with Jeong-woo?
I don't think so.
Why not?
Hey.
I'm not doing much.
Don't lie.
You're on a date with your boyfriend.
I know you're going out with Jeong-woo.
How did you know?
Dr. Bin told me
Jeong-woo had a girlfriend.
So I knew it was you.
Dr. Bin said that?
You see…
I'm not sure if I should tell you this.
The truth is Dr. Bin
asked Jeong-woo to work with him.
But he refused.
- What?
- He said he had to stay by your side.
He said you'd be really dejected
if he was the only one who got a job.
But Dr. Bin doesn't know it's you
because he asked me to pass this on.
He thinks you two are close,
so he wants you to persuade him.
I didn't want to tell you this
and trouble you,
but I thought you should still know.
All right.
This is the worst.
Ha-neul, why haven't you picked up?
Where's your umbrella? What happened?
Why did you have to humiliate me?
What?
Why did you make me
even more miserable?
Ha-neul.
Let's end it here.
I don't think I'm ready
to date anyone right now.
I was okay yesterday…
but not today.
My emotions are all over the place.
I don't know if I'm resting
or falling apart.
- Ha-neul.
- I'd forgotten for a minute.
I'm someone who struggles
to even take care of herself.
I'm sorry.
Can't you just struggle by my side?
Whatever that pain is,
let's go through it together.
No.
Why do you have to suffer because of me?
That's the worst.
I'm okay.
We don't need to date,
and you don't need to like me.
So just take this.

DOCTOR SLUMP
Can I wait for you?
Don't skip your meals.
Take your medication on time
You can come back after some time.
You saw the photo in my room.
The one Kyung-min and I took.
You're not interested in dating, are you?
Did you know
that Jeong-woo suffered from PTSD?
I'm not strong enough.
I'm sorry.
