Doctor Stranger (Dakteo Yibangin) (2014) s01e14 Episode Script
Episode 14
Hoon is your son too.
I want to forget about everything including you and Hoon.
Hoon's mom! Don't ever contact me again.
[Mom: 001-1-949-2419-25.]
Hello? Hello? Hello? Is this Hoon? Yes.
I'm Hoon.
Oh my goodness! I don't believe it.
I never thought you would call me.
Where's my mom? Your mom went back to Korea twenty years ago to find you.
She asked me not to change the number because she was worried that if I did you might not be able to reach us.
She told me a million times.
Oh my gosh.
Why did you call so late? Your mom told me to tell you something if you ever called this number.
She said she's extremely sorry and she was wrong.
I'm sorry.
I was wrong.
I never knew what you were going through.
But don't forget I love you more than anyone in this world.
I'm sorry, my darling.
I'll come and find you.
I promise.
Please take care until then.
Whoever your son is, he's a lucky guy.
I'm sure you'll be reunited with him.
So take care, lady.
Mom.
Sorry, darling.
Mom Hello? It's me.
Have you seen your mother yet? What did you do to her? I'm not sure.
What the heck did you do to her? We didn't do anything to her but keep in mind that we are capable of doing anything.
Do you have time to relax like this? You should rush yourself to see your mother.
Hello? Hello? Well this is really .
gonna be a dramatic reunion of mother and son.
[Episode 14.]
Park Hoon is on his way there now.
Good.
Thanks.
She needs to get some blood work.
Sure.
Go ahead.
You need to wait outside.
Can you at least leave the door open? Okay.
Just a little pinch.
Yes.
Nothing unusual.
Yes.
Alright.
Where is patient Lee Mi Sook? She just left.
Have you seen a patient with a teddy bear? I think she went outside.
Patient Lee Mi Sook isn't in her room.
She just went for blood work.
Where's the patient who was just tested? The patient with a teddy bear? She just left.
Where? She's not in her room.
That's strange her guardian was also looking for her.
A guardian? We're searching the entire hospital.
Okay.
You can't come inside.
I have to see Dr.
Han Seung Hee.
Dr.
Han is in surgery.
What? Lee Mi Sook disappeared? I'm sorry.
That's doesn't solve anything! The two of them need to meet so we can control Park Hoon! Maybe Park Hoon took her.
I don't think that's the case.
Then what? A crazy woman went on the run by herself? The hospital's being searched now.
When I find her Darn it! Premier, it's Park Hoon.
What's going on? Chang Yi, listen to me carefully.
She's Hoon's mother.
I'll explain the details later.
Can you please look after her for now? Does Hoon know? If he knew, she'd be in danger.
I think you're the real risk here.
Chang Yi I know who you are.
I saw you with a gun too.
They're trying to use Hoon's mother as a bait.
When they find out she's missing they'll suspect Hoon right away.
What do you think will happen to her if the two of them meet? Please.
It's for both Hoon and his mother.
Don't let anyone find out.
I'm sorry to get you involved in this complicated mess but you know you're the only person Hoon can trust, right? Nothing outside.
We're also searching inside but I don't think she's here.
Keep looking.
Yes, sir.
Park Hoon's mother disappeared? There's no way I can fully trust you.
Especially during a critical time like this.
If you'd let us take care of it something like this never would have happened.
Are you involved in this? Why would we do it? Don't assume whether my decision was wrong or not.
Park Hoon's mother disappeared.
Was it you? Weren't Premier Jang's people watching her? Jang Seok Joo, you, and I are the only people who knew where she was.
Was it you? I was in surgery.
You think I had time for that? You have a good reason though.
She's Park Hoon's mother.
Go ahead.
Search inside.
I will.
I'm just praying it wasn't you or else both of you will die by my hand.
- Good work.
- Good work.
Don't take breaks during surgery.
I'm sorry.
I'll watch your back when you need it.
You better.
You owe me.
[Park Hoon.]
[Turn off.]
The customer you're calling is unavailable Where does the premier live? I got paid in advance to pick you up.
Hoon.
Did you send the taxi? Your mother is fine.
You already knew? You knew my mom was here all along? Yes.
How come you never told me? I didn't know exactly where she was.
Does that even make sense? Jang Seok Joo kept where she was a secret.
He couldn't trust me.
You're all on the same side.
You guys met her in person and what's there to not trust? Jang Seok Joo wasn't even sure who I really was.
What? He was only sure I wasn't Song Jae Hee only after I showed him I have no scar on my abdomen.
I had a lot of surgeries before I came here.
He only told me everything after he was sure I was someone who just looked like Song Jae Hee and came here to trick you.
Have you ever thought I would doubt you? Never.
I thought you would recognize me even if my face was changed.
I took your mother to a safe place.
I know it's difficult but hold on a bit more, alright? Enough.
Tell me where my mom is.
No.
Why? Why not? I told you I have a plan.
If it goes accordingly I can protect both you and your mother.
Can you please please just trust me and wait for me? Trust? How can I trust you for no good reason? I'm not even sure you really know where my mom is.
On top of that, I know what you are up to.
- How can I trust you? - Hoon To be honest, I can't trust you.
Actually, I'm not even sure you're really Jae Hee.
I don't care about the plan.
I'm going to meet Jang Seok Joo now.
If he can't tell me where my mom is I'll head straight to the police station or to court.
You think he'll just leave you alone? He can kill me.
What about your mom then? She's mentally ill after twenty years of punishing herself with guilt.
That's why I need to see her.
I need to tell her I'm sorry and that I was wrong too.
Please trust me one last time.
I really want to protect both you and your mother.
Just give me a month.
I promise you everything will be over by then.
Please.
I'm begging you.
This has what you really want to know.
[Jae Il University Hospital.]
What's this? Myung Woo Min Gook and Jae Il.
Out of the three Min Gook was eliminated as soon as I chose it.
If you can eliminate Jae Il with what you have there then only Myung Woo will be left.
In that case it'll be wise for you to take Park Hoon back.
Finish the battle.
Hello, director.
Do you know some reporters? According to prosecutors Jae Il Hospital, recently chosen for the premier's surgery regularly received bribes from medical equipment companies.
The amount received could be as little as tens of thousands or as much as several million.
I guess that means I'll have to get my surgery done at Min Gook University Hospital.
Let's just go with Myung Woo.
What a sneaky, old snake.
You should've just said that from the beginning.
Ah, did you find Lee Mi Sook? Not yet.
Was it Cha Jin Soo who did this? We suspect Han Seung Hee.
Why would she do it? I think she's Song Jae Hee.
What are you talking about? I saw with my own eyes that she didn't have any scars.
Don't you think it's more convincing that she took Lee Mi Sook because she's Park Hoon's mother than missing a scar? Jae Il University Hospital will be automatically disqualified.
You're useful sometimes.
I was always like this.
What should we do now? What? Shouldn't we carry on with the competition? You mean with Park Hoon? Yes.
Isn't today your day off? I think I was too mean last night.
You're going to Dr.
Park's place? Yep.
We still have some leftover curry.
I don't want to throw it away so I'll just give it to him.
Oh, the curry? Can you wait for a bit? Huh? Why? I know he really likes it but he might get sick of it.
Tell him we'll make him more curry later.
Did you minor in culinary arts or something? You could say that.
Thanks.
I'll deliver it right away.
Hey.
I'm here to get an apology from you.
An apology? Yeah.
Take back what you said last night.
There's no reason to apologize since I meant it.
Are you going to be like that? Hey, quack.
Do you really have a crush on me? W what? Did you use that as an excuse to come see me? Wow.
That's not even funny now.
Wow Leave then.
I'm not in the mood to fool around with you.
I never asked you to fool around with me.
Just leave.
Don't get me wrong.
Dr.
Han made this for you because she felt bad.
I'm just here to deliver it.
A and to get an apology too.
Dr.
Han? Yes, Dr.
Han.
Jeez, why would Dr.
Han make this and cause a misunderstanding? Okay, I'm sorry.
I said I'm sorry.
Sorry about yesterday as well.
You can leave now.
I'm also sorry about yesterday.
Be good to Jae Joon and don't visit me here anymore.
Take it back.
I don't want it.
Why? Dr.
Han put lot of effort into it.
I don't want it.
Do you really have a crush me? I'm not that crazy! Jerk! I told you to leave.
Hey.
What's up? What do you think will happen to her if the two of them meet? Don't let anyone find out.
What's up? You said you'll help with deliveries.
I did? You did! I wasn't hearing from a ghost.
Wait.
How's mom? Is she doing alright? Huh? Mom? I heard she went home yesterday.
Cook her some delicious meals.
Why are you concerned about my mom? Don't be like that.
Why are you so harsh? Hello.
Can I ask you a question? Is the hospital open today? Yes, of course.
How can I help you? Please.
My chest Are you alright? Take him in.
You need prescription for angina? I weaned myself off it and fainted once.
That must have been terrible.
The clot in your coronary artery got stuck in blood vessel in your brain.
Luckily, it was a small clot.
If it had been big, you probably wouldn't be walking now.
Can you take a deep breath? I went to a big hospital and asked for a prescription but they told me to get surgery.
I don't have the money for it.
Which hospital was it? Myung Woo University Hospital.
I might have seen you there.
Can you lie down? Sir, I think you really need surgery.
I can't afford it.
If you don't, you could be putting yourself in serious danger.
Can't you just prescribe me medication for my angina? This isn't something that can be treated with just meds.
Sir, I'll prescribe you Hi! Restart the competition? Didn't another hospital already win? You know who I am.
I'm Hyung Wook, doer of the impossible! Hard times are over at Myung Woo thanks to me.
It was a piece of cake.
I took care of everything.
No thank you.
Jeez.
Here.
I can't even use that.
Hocus pocus! I don't need the money anymore.
Just tell Dr.
Han to represent Myung Woo.
Dr.
Han can't help me live up to my father's will.
M master I mean professor, tell your father that you're sorry.
Hyung! Huh? Isn't he You know him? Of course I do! He has angina and we told him to get surgery but he left because he said he couldn't afford it.
Get the truck started.
Where are we going? Let's save a patient! To Myung Woo Hospital.
Bingo! He finally came back.
How could you just let him leave? He should leave if he can't pay up.
Can't you see how sick he is? Hey, tomboy! Ouch! Ouch! My, oh my! Want to go see a movie tonight? Do you ever take life seriously, you dirty pervert? Of course I do.
Life isn't always jolly and easy, you know.
Huh? Jeez! He can't have surgery if he's broke.
I'll take care of his medical fees this time.
Can I ask you to help him with admission? You said a month? Then Myung Woo is confirmed to do the premier's surgery? That's correct.
Director, Dr.
Park Hoon is here.
Tell him to come in.
Unnie! I have big news! What's with all the fuss? Check the patients' vitals in rooms 3 and 9.
Come on! The water boy is coming back! - Really? - Yes! What do you mean? Why 1:1? It's 1:0.
Whatever.
- Let's start at 1:1.
- Hey! You said that whoever did that surgery would lose but we all know she really needed it.
Hey! Let's hear him.
Sure, of course.
I'll take it as a defeat.
In other words we have only one round left between Dr.
Han and me.
I'm not too happy about that since it sounds like pity.
It's not pity.
You can call it respect for a good doctor.
Then this'll be the final round again? But just like last time let the hospital take care of all medical expenses.
He's a 45-year-old male.
He lost consciousness 2 weeks ago and was rushed to the ER.
He had arterial blockage in the brain due to blood clots.
I see a possible heart attack.
As you can see we need to fix his coronary arteries his valves and the left ventricular enlargement.
Do you want him to be the patient for our final round? That's a strange coincidence.
This woman is 53 years old.
She was admitted after a stroke as well.
She suffered a long time from plaque so most of her left ventricle is going through fibrosis.
[Fibrosis: formation of excess connective tissue that stiffens the heart.]
As you can see she also needs valve surgery and is in pretty bad shape overall.
What are you going to do? We found a donor so we'll do a transplant.
Your patient will have to wait a long time before he finds a donor.
That's why I asked to do the match.
You'll implant a VAD? [VAD: ventricular assist device.]
Do you know how much that costs? It's more than $100,000! He ran away from the hospital because he couldn't pay.
That's why I chose him.
What? A VAD will extend the patient's life while waiting for a donor.
Its improved function will help him last without much discomfort after he requests a donor.
The hospital will take care of the financial part so there's no need to worry.
The surgery itself is simpler and has lower risk than a transplant.
Insist that you win after we do this surgery.
Hey.
You're really pleasing me today.
Implant a VAD? [VAD: ventricular assist device.]
That's an expensive device.
Park Hoon used his brain.
I think this round will end as a tie.
No.
He won't be able to implant a VAD in that patient.
Isn't the hospital supposed to be responsible for the costs? It's not about finances of it.
Does he have a blood coagulation defect? [Blood coagulation defect: impaired ability to stop bleeding.]
That's right.
Nothing will work, whether it is a heart transplant or a VAD.
He'll die even if a god operates on him.
Then this round will Dr.
Han.
There's something you always need to remember.
The person I forgave last time was my daughter's Han Jae Joon.
I haven't forgiven Dr.
Han who talked back and disobeyed me.
You know what? Moon Hyung Wook who you fired did his part flawlessly to get us selected for the premier's surgery.
If there's a way up there's a way down for you.
Have you realized that? I'm aware.
If you knew how could you fool around with Park Hoon? How could you laugh with the person who almost got you fired? I'm sorry.
Always remember.
This game isn't a drinking game you play with your friends.
It's worth your life.
I will, director.
Win it.
Do everything it takes.
That's the only way to get Myung Woo.
If not you'll lose everything.
Even Soo Hyun who you love so dearly.
Yes, Professor Park Cheol really did go to North Korea twenty years ago.
Did you find out why? I heard it was for their leader's surgery.
Their leader? After it was successful, he was treated very well there.
He was so confident about testifying for us Oh, there's one more thing He had a son.
I know.
You knew? It's not a lot, but it's to express my gratitude.
This isn't want I want.
I want to drink all night like the old days back at Harvard.
That's all I want.
Cheers.
Open the door! Professor! Please answer me! Sung Hoon! H help! Mom! What's wrong? Mom! Mom! What's wrong? Stay with me! Mom! Park Cheol.
Park Hoon.
Are you Park Cheol's son? Dr.
Park! Hey, quack! I have something to give you.
Come in.
I don't think I lent you anything.
Just come in! What's this? It's your gown.
Mine? Congratulations and welcome back.
No need to congratulate me.
Hey, quack.
What's with your face? What about it? Nevermind.
Is this the gown I threw in the trash can? Is it? Does it smell? Smell it yourself.
I can't smell anything! I can only smell my perfume! Come on! My, oh my! You look your best in a gown.
Doctor.
Oh, you're awake.
What happened? We've scheduled surgery for you tomorrow.
Rest now.
I told you I don't have money! Don't worry about the cost.
Just get some rest.
We're going to implant this in your heart.
It costs over $100,000.
If we implant this you won't feel any discomfort until you find a donor.
The hospital will pay for everything so you don't have to worry.
Sound good? Thank you Thank you so much.
Dad! Are you alright? Yeah, daddy's okay.
Honey, don't worry about anything.
Daddy's fine.
Do you want to see me? You said you have a plan and I can't see my mom because of it.
Explain it to me.
You said you'd wait.
I can't anymore.
I can't even wait one more minute.
No.
Tell me.
What's your plan? I can't tell you.
Why? Why can't you tell me? It'll put you in danger.
Does that really make sense to you? Hoon, just trust me and be a good doctor.
Then you and your mom A good doctor? Is that what you want? You have a surgery coming up! What are you doing? Tell me or else I'll never be able to hold a scalpel ever again.
Don't do it.
Tell me! My plan is to meet the president! Happy now? How can you meet the president? The team for premier's surgery will actually do the president's surgery.
We'll get to meet him if we're chosen to do the surgery.
Operating on the president? Then why did they say it's for premier? It's a national secret that the president is ill.
He wants to keep it that way.
Why would anyone hide their illness? Who would obey a person who could die any day? He'll be useless even as president.
Then what about Jang Seok Joo? Why does he want me to do the surgery? Because he wants to kill the president! He thinks you'll do anything if he threatens you with me and your mom.
If the president passes away the premier will take over.
That's what Jang Seok Joo wants.
Is that your plan? To kill people according to Jang Seok Joo's will? He doesn't want to kill him right away but keep him in a coma.
That way he'll be in power as long as he wants.
I thought I could somehow meet the president myself.
Then If you promise you'll help us I'll spare your life.
You fool! Do you really think that's possible? We'll die if we fail.
But we still have hope.
Why didn't you tell me before? This is risky.
I thought you didn't have to know.
I'm the head surgeon! How can I stay blind? Dr.
Han can also lead.
Then he'll ask Jang Seok Joo to take you out and let Dr.
Han do it or else he won't move according to my plan.
There are other skilled anesthesiologists.
Why? Why you? Because I love you! When they threaten to kill you I have to do what they say.
I didn't tell you because I thought you didn't have to get involved any more than you are.
Just forget everything I said.
You'll even have to lose the competition.
Just keep walking your path and being a good doctor.
Follow the path you want.
Please.
Is it a gift? I like it.
People are naturally attracted to new and exciting things.
Just like that purse.
Think of Dr.
Park as that purse.
Imagine you just held it briefly.
I can't take any more than that.
People are naturally attracted to new and exciting things.
Just like that purse.
You can have it.
It won't take long.
Is there anything special? No, nothing.
Let's wheel him to the operating room.
I'm sorry about yesterday.
You haven't forgotten what I asked you, right? You don't have to care about the competition anymore.
Too bad.
I really want to win now.
I won't ever let you in an operating room by yourself.
Hoon.
Don't worry.
This round is all about saving the patient.
Director.
I think it'll be hard to decide on a winner this time.
They are both skilled enough to successfully do the procedures.
How about we decide on the winner by whomever finishes first? It's not about how fast they do it.
We'll wait for the outcome of the surgeries.
Then what if they both succeed? Hmm.
I hadn't thought about that.
You should have.
How about assistant professor at the branch? Don't let him know the patient has a blood coagulation defect.
He can't succeed on this surgery.
You know what I mean? Did you finish all pre-surgery screening? Yes.
Nothing unusual.
Dr.
Han.
Let's redo the important ones.
Shall we? You had an amazing father.
I meant Professor Park Cheol.
He went to North Korea for an important surgery.
How do you know? How was it? I'm sure you lived comfortably since he saved their precious leader.
That's why you went to Pyongyang Medical School.
You're acting weird today.
Is something bothering you? Nothing.
Good luck on your surgery.
Hey, quack.
Good luck to you too.
What's wrong with everyone today? What's going on? I think there's a problem.
Isn't that wrong? It's a blood coagulation defect.
Dr.
Park Hoon's going to get himself into trouble.
Exactly.
What happened? It's a blood coagulation defect.
It's my fault.
I forgot to do that test.
Dr.
Yang! I'm so sorry.
What about platelets? It's sitting at 50,000.
You can't do the surgery! Let's call it off.
The patient will die without surgery.
We can't inject heparin or warfarin.
[Heparin: an anticoagulant.]
[Warfarin: prevents thrombosis.]
It means he'll die.
He'll die of heart failure if we leave him.
Did I wake up on the wrong side? Why a defect all of a sudden? What's wrong with you? Why today? Jeez, everything is just wrong! Darn it! It's a disaster in room 2.
What's going on? The patient has coagulopathy.
A normal platelet count is but his is only 50,000.
Then they can't implant a VAD.
[VAD: ventricular assist device.]
It's finished.
Dr.
Han claims victory, game over.
Enough fooling around.
Get ready.
Let's disconnect him and move the patient.
Hold on a moment.
We don't have to wait.
It's over.
I asked you to wait! Dr.
Park will make the final decision.
Dr.
Park? If we can't use warfarin on the patient we'll do something that doesn't require it.
We'll do the SAVER procedure.
[SAVER: surgical anterior ventricular endocardial restoration.]
They're going to do SAVER.
What's that? It's when they open surface of the heart like this to remove the dead tissue like this and get rid of it.
Then they close it up like nothing happened.
It sounds pretty simple! Simple? It's an out of date procedure.
Out of date procedure? Yes.
It has very low success rate so no one does it anymore.
Especially not on patients like this with a lot of necrosis.
The water boy's going to do it? Let's zoom in.
Is that the surgery room? They're starting.
Get Park Hoon on the line! No thanks.
Hey, you! You're not a god! You'll need heparin during SAVER anyway.
The bleeding will be out of control.
We can do it with enough blood and platelets and watch out for other accidents.
The left chamber is more than 40% necrotic.
That's the limit of the SAVER procedure.
Alright? His guardians won't allow it.
You'll never be able to walk out if you operate without their consent.
Blood pressure is falling! Let's begin.
Get anesthesia ready.
Dr.
Park! The patient will die if he leaves this room now anyway.
We need the guardian's consent to do surgery! What consent? After he dies? What are you doing? Get ready for shock.
Let me know if you see bleeding in any other area.
Let's begin the SAVER procedure.
Messer.
I want to forget about everything including you and Hoon.
Hoon's mom! Don't ever contact me again.
[Mom: 001-1-949-2419-25.]
Hello? Hello? Hello? Is this Hoon? Yes.
I'm Hoon.
Oh my goodness! I don't believe it.
I never thought you would call me.
Where's my mom? Your mom went back to Korea twenty years ago to find you.
She asked me not to change the number because she was worried that if I did you might not be able to reach us.
She told me a million times.
Oh my gosh.
Why did you call so late? Your mom told me to tell you something if you ever called this number.
She said she's extremely sorry and she was wrong.
I'm sorry.
I was wrong.
I never knew what you were going through.
But don't forget I love you more than anyone in this world.
I'm sorry, my darling.
I'll come and find you.
I promise.
Please take care until then.
Whoever your son is, he's a lucky guy.
I'm sure you'll be reunited with him.
So take care, lady.
Mom.
Sorry, darling.
Mom Hello? It's me.
Have you seen your mother yet? What did you do to her? I'm not sure.
What the heck did you do to her? We didn't do anything to her but keep in mind that we are capable of doing anything.
Do you have time to relax like this? You should rush yourself to see your mother.
Hello? Hello? Well this is really .
gonna be a dramatic reunion of mother and son.
[Episode 14.]
Park Hoon is on his way there now.
Good.
Thanks.
She needs to get some blood work.
Sure.
Go ahead.
You need to wait outside.
Can you at least leave the door open? Okay.
Just a little pinch.
Yes.
Nothing unusual.
Yes.
Alright.
Where is patient Lee Mi Sook? She just left.
Have you seen a patient with a teddy bear? I think she went outside.
Patient Lee Mi Sook isn't in her room.
She just went for blood work.
Where's the patient who was just tested? The patient with a teddy bear? She just left.
Where? She's not in her room.
That's strange her guardian was also looking for her.
A guardian? We're searching the entire hospital.
Okay.
You can't come inside.
I have to see Dr.
Han Seung Hee.
Dr.
Han is in surgery.
What? Lee Mi Sook disappeared? I'm sorry.
That's doesn't solve anything! The two of them need to meet so we can control Park Hoon! Maybe Park Hoon took her.
I don't think that's the case.
Then what? A crazy woman went on the run by herself? The hospital's being searched now.
When I find her Darn it! Premier, it's Park Hoon.
What's going on? Chang Yi, listen to me carefully.
She's Hoon's mother.
I'll explain the details later.
Can you please look after her for now? Does Hoon know? If he knew, she'd be in danger.
I think you're the real risk here.
Chang Yi I know who you are.
I saw you with a gun too.
They're trying to use Hoon's mother as a bait.
When they find out she's missing they'll suspect Hoon right away.
What do you think will happen to her if the two of them meet? Please.
It's for both Hoon and his mother.
Don't let anyone find out.
I'm sorry to get you involved in this complicated mess but you know you're the only person Hoon can trust, right? Nothing outside.
We're also searching inside but I don't think she's here.
Keep looking.
Yes, sir.
Park Hoon's mother disappeared? There's no way I can fully trust you.
Especially during a critical time like this.
If you'd let us take care of it something like this never would have happened.
Are you involved in this? Why would we do it? Don't assume whether my decision was wrong or not.
Park Hoon's mother disappeared.
Was it you? Weren't Premier Jang's people watching her? Jang Seok Joo, you, and I are the only people who knew where she was.
Was it you? I was in surgery.
You think I had time for that? You have a good reason though.
She's Park Hoon's mother.
Go ahead.
Search inside.
I will.
I'm just praying it wasn't you or else both of you will die by my hand.
- Good work.
- Good work.
Don't take breaks during surgery.
I'm sorry.
I'll watch your back when you need it.
You better.
You owe me.
[Park Hoon.]
[Turn off.]
The customer you're calling is unavailable Where does the premier live? I got paid in advance to pick you up.
Hoon.
Did you send the taxi? Your mother is fine.
You already knew? You knew my mom was here all along? Yes.
How come you never told me? I didn't know exactly where she was.
Does that even make sense? Jang Seok Joo kept where she was a secret.
He couldn't trust me.
You're all on the same side.
You guys met her in person and what's there to not trust? Jang Seok Joo wasn't even sure who I really was.
What? He was only sure I wasn't Song Jae Hee only after I showed him I have no scar on my abdomen.
I had a lot of surgeries before I came here.
He only told me everything after he was sure I was someone who just looked like Song Jae Hee and came here to trick you.
Have you ever thought I would doubt you? Never.
I thought you would recognize me even if my face was changed.
I took your mother to a safe place.
I know it's difficult but hold on a bit more, alright? Enough.
Tell me where my mom is.
No.
Why? Why not? I told you I have a plan.
If it goes accordingly I can protect both you and your mother.
Can you please please just trust me and wait for me? Trust? How can I trust you for no good reason? I'm not even sure you really know where my mom is.
On top of that, I know what you are up to.
- How can I trust you? - Hoon To be honest, I can't trust you.
Actually, I'm not even sure you're really Jae Hee.
I don't care about the plan.
I'm going to meet Jang Seok Joo now.
If he can't tell me where my mom is I'll head straight to the police station or to court.
You think he'll just leave you alone? He can kill me.
What about your mom then? She's mentally ill after twenty years of punishing herself with guilt.
That's why I need to see her.
I need to tell her I'm sorry and that I was wrong too.
Please trust me one last time.
I really want to protect both you and your mother.
Just give me a month.
I promise you everything will be over by then.
Please.
I'm begging you.
This has what you really want to know.
[Jae Il University Hospital.]
What's this? Myung Woo Min Gook and Jae Il.
Out of the three Min Gook was eliminated as soon as I chose it.
If you can eliminate Jae Il with what you have there then only Myung Woo will be left.
In that case it'll be wise for you to take Park Hoon back.
Finish the battle.
Hello, director.
Do you know some reporters? According to prosecutors Jae Il Hospital, recently chosen for the premier's surgery regularly received bribes from medical equipment companies.
The amount received could be as little as tens of thousands or as much as several million.
I guess that means I'll have to get my surgery done at Min Gook University Hospital.
Let's just go with Myung Woo.
What a sneaky, old snake.
You should've just said that from the beginning.
Ah, did you find Lee Mi Sook? Not yet.
Was it Cha Jin Soo who did this? We suspect Han Seung Hee.
Why would she do it? I think she's Song Jae Hee.
What are you talking about? I saw with my own eyes that she didn't have any scars.
Don't you think it's more convincing that she took Lee Mi Sook because she's Park Hoon's mother than missing a scar? Jae Il University Hospital will be automatically disqualified.
You're useful sometimes.
I was always like this.
What should we do now? What? Shouldn't we carry on with the competition? You mean with Park Hoon? Yes.
Isn't today your day off? I think I was too mean last night.
You're going to Dr.
Park's place? Yep.
We still have some leftover curry.
I don't want to throw it away so I'll just give it to him.
Oh, the curry? Can you wait for a bit? Huh? Why? I know he really likes it but he might get sick of it.
Tell him we'll make him more curry later.
Did you minor in culinary arts or something? You could say that.
Thanks.
I'll deliver it right away.
Hey.
I'm here to get an apology from you.
An apology? Yeah.
Take back what you said last night.
There's no reason to apologize since I meant it.
Are you going to be like that? Hey, quack.
Do you really have a crush on me? W what? Did you use that as an excuse to come see me? Wow.
That's not even funny now.
Wow Leave then.
I'm not in the mood to fool around with you.
I never asked you to fool around with me.
Just leave.
Don't get me wrong.
Dr.
Han made this for you because she felt bad.
I'm just here to deliver it.
A and to get an apology too.
Dr.
Han? Yes, Dr.
Han.
Jeez, why would Dr.
Han make this and cause a misunderstanding? Okay, I'm sorry.
I said I'm sorry.
Sorry about yesterday as well.
You can leave now.
I'm also sorry about yesterday.
Be good to Jae Joon and don't visit me here anymore.
Take it back.
I don't want it.
Why? Dr.
Han put lot of effort into it.
I don't want it.
Do you really have a crush me? I'm not that crazy! Jerk! I told you to leave.
Hey.
What's up? What do you think will happen to her if the two of them meet? Don't let anyone find out.
What's up? You said you'll help with deliveries.
I did? You did! I wasn't hearing from a ghost.
Wait.
How's mom? Is she doing alright? Huh? Mom? I heard she went home yesterday.
Cook her some delicious meals.
Why are you concerned about my mom? Don't be like that.
Why are you so harsh? Hello.
Can I ask you a question? Is the hospital open today? Yes, of course.
How can I help you? Please.
My chest Are you alright? Take him in.
You need prescription for angina? I weaned myself off it and fainted once.
That must have been terrible.
The clot in your coronary artery got stuck in blood vessel in your brain.
Luckily, it was a small clot.
If it had been big, you probably wouldn't be walking now.
Can you take a deep breath? I went to a big hospital and asked for a prescription but they told me to get surgery.
I don't have the money for it.
Which hospital was it? Myung Woo University Hospital.
I might have seen you there.
Can you lie down? Sir, I think you really need surgery.
I can't afford it.
If you don't, you could be putting yourself in serious danger.
Can't you just prescribe me medication for my angina? This isn't something that can be treated with just meds.
Sir, I'll prescribe you Hi! Restart the competition? Didn't another hospital already win? You know who I am.
I'm Hyung Wook, doer of the impossible! Hard times are over at Myung Woo thanks to me.
It was a piece of cake.
I took care of everything.
No thank you.
Jeez.
Here.
I can't even use that.
Hocus pocus! I don't need the money anymore.
Just tell Dr.
Han to represent Myung Woo.
Dr.
Han can't help me live up to my father's will.
M master I mean professor, tell your father that you're sorry.
Hyung! Huh? Isn't he You know him? Of course I do! He has angina and we told him to get surgery but he left because he said he couldn't afford it.
Get the truck started.
Where are we going? Let's save a patient! To Myung Woo Hospital.
Bingo! He finally came back.
How could you just let him leave? He should leave if he can't pay up.
Can't you see how sick he is? Hey, tomboy! Ouch! Ouch! My, oh my! Want to go see a movie tonight? Do you ever take life seriously, you dirty pervert? Of course I do.
Life isn't always jolly and easy, you know.
Huh? Jeez! He can't have surgery if he's broke.
I'll take care of his medical fees this time.
Can I ask you to help him with admission? You said a month? Then Myung Woo is confirmed to do the premier's surgery? That's correct.
Director, Dr.
Park Hoon is here.
Tell him to come in.
Unnie! I have big news! What's with all the fuss? Check the patients' vitals in rooms 3 and 9.
Come on! The water boy is coming back! - Really? - Yes! What do you mean? Why 1:1? It's 1:0.
Whatever.
- Let's start at 1:1.
- Hey! You said that whoever did that surgery would lose but we all know she really needed it.
Hey! Let's hear him.
Sure, of course.
I'll take it as a defeat.
In other words we have only one round left between Dr.
Han and me.
I'm not too happy about that since it sounds like pity.
It's not pity.
You can call it respect for a good doctor.
Then this'll be the final round again? But just like last time let the hospital take care of all medical expenses.
He's a 45-year-old male.
He lost consciousness 2 weeks ago and was rushed to the ER.
He had arterial blockage in the brain due to blood clots.
I see a possible heart attack.
As you can see we need to fix his coronary arteries his valves and the left ventricular enlargement.
Do you want him to be the patient for our final round? That's a strange coincidence.
This woman is 53 years old.
She was admitted after a stroke as well.
She suffered a long time from plaque so most of her left ventricle is going through fibrosis.
[Fibrosis: formation of excess connective tissue that stiffens the heart.]
As you can see she also needs valve surgery and is in pretty bad shape overall.
What are you going to do? We found a donor so we'll do a transplant.
Your patient will have to wait a long time before he finds a donor.
That's why I asked to do the match.
You'll implant a VAD? [VAD: ventricular assist device.]
Do you know how much that costs? It's more than $100,000! He ran away from the hospital because he couldn't pay.
That's why I chose him.
What? A VAD will extend the patient's life while waiting for a donor.
Its improved function will help him last without much discomfort after he requests a donor.
The hospital will take care of the financial part so there's no need to worry.
The surgery itself is simpler and has lower risk than a transplant.
Insist that you win after we do this surgery.
Hey.
You're really pleasing me today.
Implant a VAD? [VAD: ventricular assist device.]
That's an expensive device.
Park Hoon used his brain.
I think this round will end as a tie.
No.
He won't be able to implant a VAD in that patient.
Isn't the hospital supposed to be responsible for the costs? It's not about finances of it.
Does he have a blood coagulation defect? [Blood coagulation defect: impaired ability to stop bleeding.]
That's right.
Nothing will work, whether it is a heart transplant or a VAD.
He'll die even if a god operates on him.
Then this round will Dr.
Han.
There's something you always need to remember.
The person I forgave last time was my daughter's Han Jae Joon.
I haven't forgiven Dr.
Han who talked back and disobeyed me.
You know what? Moon Hyung Wook who you fired did his part flawlessly to get us selected for the premier's surgery.
If there's a way up there's a way down for you.
Have you realized that? I'm aware.
If you knew how could you fool around with Park Hoon? How could you laugh with the person who almost got you fired? I'm sorry.
Always remember.
This game isn't a drinking game you play with your friends.
It's worth your life.
I will, director.
Win it.
Do everything it takes.
That's the only way to get Myung Woo.
If not you'll lose everything.
Even Soo Hyun who you love so dearly.
Yes, Professor Park Cheol really did go to North Korea twenty years ago.
Did you find out why? I heard it was for their leader's surgery.
Their leader? After it was successful, he was treated very well there.
He was so confident about testifying for us Oh, there's one more thing He had a son.
I know.
You knew? It's not a lot, but it's to express my gratitude.
This isn't want I want.
I want to drink all night like the old days back at Harvard.
That's all I want.
Cheers.
Open the door! Professor! Please answer me! Sung Hoon! H help! Mom! What's wrong? Mom! Mom! What's wrong? Stay with me! Mom! Park Cheol.
Park Hoon.
Are you Park Cheol's son? Dr.
Park! Hey, quack! I have something to give you.
Come in.
I don't think I lent you anything.
Just come in! What's this? It's your gown.
Mine? Congratulations and welcome back.
No need to congratulate me.
Hey, quack.
What's with your face? What about it? Nevermind.
Is this the gown I threw in the trash can? Is it? Does it smell? Smell it yourself.
I can't smell anything! I can only smell my perfume! Come on! My, oh my! You look your best in a gown.
Doctor.
Oh, you're awake.
What happened? We've scheduled surgery for you tomorrow.
Rest now.
I told you I don't have money! Don't worry about the cost.
Just get some rest.
We're going to implant this in your heart.
It costs over $100,000.
If we implant this you won't feel any discomfort until you find a donor.
The hospital will pay for everything so you don't have to worry.
Sound good? Thank you Thank you so much.
Dad! Are you alright? Yeah, daddy's okay.
Honey, don't worry about anything.
Daddy's fine.
Do you want to see me? You said you have a plan and I can't see my mom because of it.
Explain it to me.
You said you'd wait.
I can't anymore.
I can't even wait one more minute.
No.
Tell me.
What's your plan? I can't tell you.
Why? Why can't you tell me? It'll put you in danger.
Does that really make sense to you? Hoon, just trust me and be a good doctor.
Then you and your mom A good doctor? Is that what you want? You have a surgery coming up! What are you doing? Tell me or else I'll never be able to hold a scalpel ever again.
Don't do it.
Tell me! My plan is to meet the president! Happy now? How can you meet the president? The team for premier's surgery will actually do the president's surgery.
We'll get to meet him if we're chosen to do the surgery.
Operating on the president? Then why did they say it's for premier? It's a national secret that the president is ill.
He wants to keep it that way.
Why would anyone hide their illness? Who would obey a person who could die any day? He'll be useless even as president.
Then what about Jang Seok Joo? Why does he want me to do the surgery? Because he wants to kill the president! He thinks you'll do anything if he threatens you with me and your mom.
If the president passes away the premier will take over.
That's what Jang Seok Joo wants.
Is that your plan? To kill people according to Jang Seok Joo's will? He doesn't want to kill him right away but keep him in a coma.
That way he'll be in power as long as he wants.
I thought I could somehow meet the president myself.
Then If you promise you'll help us I'll spare your life.
You fool! Do you really think that's possible? We'll die if we fail.
But we still have hope.
Why didn't you tell me before? This is risky.
I thought you didn't have to know.
I'm the head surgeon! How can I stay blind? Dr.
Han can also lead.
Then he'll ask Jang Seok Joo to take you out and let Dr.
Han do it or else he won't move according to my plan.
There are other skilled anesthesiologists.
Why? Why you? Because I love you! When they threaten to kill you I have to do what they say.
I didn't tell you because I thought you didn't have to get involved any more than you are.
Just forget everything I said.
You'll even have to lose the competition.
Just keep walking your path and being a good doctor.
Follow the path you want.
Please.
Is it a gift? I like it.
People are naturally attracted to new and exciting things.
Just like that purse.
Think of Dr.
Park as that purse.
Imagine you just held it briefly.
I can't take any more than that.
People are naturally attracted to new and exciting things.
Just like that purse.
You can have it.
It won't take long.
Is there anything special? No, nothing.
Let's wheel him to the operating room.
I'm sorry about yesterday.
You haven't forgotten what I asked you, right? You don't have to care about the competition anymore.
Too bad.
I really want to win now.
I won't ever let you in an operating room by yourself.
Hoon.
Don't worry.
This round is all about saving the patient.
Director.
I think it'll be hard to decide on a winner this time.
They are both skilled enough to successfully do the procedures.
How about we decide on the winner by whomever finishes first? It's not about how fast they do it.
We'll wait for the outcome of the surgeries.
Then what if they both succeed? Hmm.
I hadn't thought about that.
You should have.
How about assistant professor at the branch? Don't let him know the patient has a blood coagulation defect.
He can't succeed on this surgery.
You know what I mean? Did you finish all pre-surgery screening? Yes.
Nothing unusual.
Dr.
Han.
Let's redo the important ones.
Shall we? You had an amazing father.
I meant Professor Park Cheol.
He went to North Korea for an important surgery.
How do you know? How was it? I'm sure you lived comfortably since he saved their precious leader.
That's why you went to Pyongyang Medical School.
You're acting weird today.
Is something bothering you? Nothing.
Good luck on your surgery.
Hey, quack.
Good luck to you too.
What's wrong with everyone today? What's going on? I think there's a problem.
Isn't that wrong? It's a blood coagulation defect.
Dr.
Park Hoon's going to get himself into trouble.
Exactly.
What happened? It's a blood coagulation defect.
It's my fault.
I forgot to do that test.
Dr.
Yang! I'm so sorry.
What about platelets? It's sitting at 50,000.
You can't do the surgery! Let's call it off.
The patient will die without surgery.
We can't inject heparin or warfarin.
[Heparin: an anticoagulant.]
[Warfarin: prevents thrombosis.]
It means he'll die.
He'll die of heart failure if we leave him.
Did I wake up on the wrong side? Why a defect all of a sudden? What's wrong with you? Why today? Jeez, everything is just wrong! Darn it! It's a disaster in room 2.
What's going on? The patient has coagulopathy.
A normal platelet count is but his is only 50,000.
Then they can't implant a VAD.
[VAD: ventricular assist device.]
It's finished.
Dr.
Han claims victory, game over.
Enough fooling around.
Get ready.
Let's disconnect him and move the patient.
Hold on a moment.
We don't have to wait.
It's over.
I asked you to wait! Dr.
Park will make the final decision.
Dr.
Park? If we can't use warfarin on the patient we'll do something that doesn't require it.
We'll do the SAVER procedure.
[SAVER: surgical anterior ventricular endocardial restoration.]
They're going to do SAVER.
What's that? It's when they open surface of the heart like this to remove the dead tissue like this and get rid of it.
Then they close it up like nothing happened.
It sounds pretty simple! Simple? It's an out of date procedure.
Out of date procedure? Yes.
It has very low success rate so no one does it anymore.
Especially not on patients like this with a lot of necrosis.
The water boy's going to do it? Let's zoom in.
Is that the surgery room? They're starting.
Get Park Hoon on the line! No thanks.
Hey, you! You're not a god! You'll need heparin during SAVER anyway.
The bleeding will be out of control.
We can do it with enough blood and platelets and watch out for other accidents.
The left chamber is more than 40% necrotic.
That's the limit of the SAVER procedure.
Alright? His guardians won't allow it.
You'll never be able to walk out if you operate without their consent.
Blood pressure is falling! Let's begin.
Get anesthesia ready.
Dr.
Park! The patient will die if he leaves this room now anyway.
We need the guardian's consent to do surgery! What consent? After he dies? What are you doing? Get ready for shock.
Let me know if you see bleeding in any other area.
Let's begin the SAVER procedure.
Messer.
