The medical content of this drama is fictional, and the situations are dramatized.
Ah! What are you doing there?
I came to audition for the Asia orchestra.
- Please get ready. - Yes.
His girlfriend?
Do you really want to act like you know everything?
It seems like your teamwork consists of leaving a patient alone until the other surgery is over.
Why don't you tell Doctor Kim Doo Hyun
directly.
Do you think that all the doctors that really care for their patients are dead except for you?
You, beggar-like jerk.
Don't look at the local symptoms like Western medicine...
Do you have a death wish?
What are you all doing?
You only told the truth?
What truth are you talking about?
Episode 5
Am I the only person who knows that modern medical science looks at the local effects of illinesses and see the tree, but not the forest?
This guy. What do you think you're doing?
All of you, calm down and take your seats.
I said, take your seats.

So,
Dr. Kim Seung Hyun
you are saying you haven't done anything wrong?
Looking at the doctors' expression,
I guess I am wrong.
I'm not sure why you are punishing me for my personal opinion,
I apologize for creating a disturbance in the hospital.
I'll take responsibility
I will hand in my resignation.
No!
If we cannot show the result of integrative medicine in 6 months,
they are going to end the program.
If Doctor Kim Seung Hyun gives in his letter of resignation,
Who will take care of the rest of the situation?
It seems like he
came here to fight on behalf of Doctor Kim Seung Hyun.
Personally,
I think Doctor Kim Seung Hyun taking responsibillity,
and leaving the hospital is the right thing to do.
May I say something?
Doctor Kim Seung Hyun's behavior,
As an Oriental medicine doctor that must take care of the lives of his patients,
I do agree that he was careless.
But to have him leave the hospital because of a situation like this,
Being caught in his Oriental medicine practices,
To all the patients that he will encounter,
He will continue to cause a disturbance with them as well.
So...
After giving him an opportunity to get rid of his prejudice against Western medicine practices,
Then, taking action
I think this would be a better solution for the patients.
I agree
Doctor Kim Seung Hyun
If you want to leave,
you'll need to take care of the trouble you caused.
So after giving it some thought,
let's run a cooperative task force.
If we keep going on like this
this one hospital
will end up being two.
Unlike partial collaboration like now, will end up being two.
Unlike partial collaboration like now,
we are going to run a task force to have a fully collaborative team.
Ah, that's a great idea.
Among each of the departments,
Choose one representative and create a project team.
Conference, patient care and if it's possible, surgery...
I'd like you to try
practicing fully intergrative medicine.
Oriental medicine and Westernmedicine being integrated fully...
That's almost impossible
Impossible or not, just try it!
Whether we try it or not, can't you tell?
Alright everyone, that's enough.
Since we're in a situation where a decision will be sent down in 6 months regarding this hospital
if, regarding this project,
I will not accept opnioins again it.
Those who want to be in this project will be first choice.
Any volunteers?
I see.
If that is the case, with the best members from each department
I will decide on my own .
Also, Dr. Kim Seung Hyun
Since you are the one who carries the most responsiblity for this matter.
You'll need to prove the the efficacy of this project.
Since you are also experienced in hematology and oncology,
Rather than the other doctors,
I feel like you can offer much more.
I'll contact the project team members in private,
as they are decided.
How long has it been?
Forty-seven minutes, Doctor.
I'll do it.
Let's stop.
Announce her death.
Patient Park Jin Ah,
at 4:13PM
has past away.
Aigoo, save her!
Aigoo!
Dr. Park.
Yes?
Come with me.
Oh, she's still so young!
Aigoo! Aigoo...
You want me to write the bruises instead of the pregnancy-induced hypertension as the cause of death?
Make it clear that we suspect the intracerebral hemorrhage in pregnancy along with battery.
Doctor, then there will be an investigation from the police.
I follow the principles.
It's not because there was an issue with the surgery.
It's because of intracerebral hemorrhage because someone assulted a pregnant woman with preeclampsia.
That's why the prognosis was bad.
You don't understand?
I'll do as you say.
This makes no sense!
What do you mean it doesn't make sense?
Hematology and Oncology put lesser value on alternative medicine, much less than other departments.
You know this very well.
That is why I'm saying, to take this chance to make it certain if it works or not!
Instead, it's a much better idea to team them up with Orthopedics or Ob/Gyn.
Teaming up with those doctors...
I chose one representative from each department. What's wrong with that?
Why me?
Because you have blind faith in Western medicine.
So you can criticize Oriental medicine when you actaully know something about it.
Director, even so, this is...
I won't make you do this forever!
Just put up with it for 6 months.
But Director!
Aren't you busy? You have no surgery?
You may not be, but I'm busy so go.
Do your best, alright? Haha
Come in!
Coming in. Oh, hello.
Have a seat.
Do you have any thoughts for joining the task force?
I'm so sorry.
Stop that and answer me!
Aren't you the other half of Doctor Kim Seung Hyun?
That's not necessarily it. We're just... colleagues...
What do you mean you're not. You're always together and how long ago was it that you two caused trouble together...
Are you going to do it or not?
Ah yes. I'll do it.
Why do you talk so much if you're going to do it anyways?
This clip you're going to see is a footage of a superficial temporal artery anastomosis,
being done to a patient to prevent the expected cerebral infarction.
You need to suture two very thin blood vessels less than 1mm in diameter
with a fine thread you can't even see with naked eyes, without any mistakes.
First, this is an ICG (Indocyanine green angiography).
We put a fluorescent material into the blood vessel to see if the blood circulation is going well.
Then prep the blood vessels for the anastomosis.
Please continue.
After you cut the blood supply of the arteries being sutured with two clips temporarily,
use anticoagulant agents.
The blood vessel you're looking at is being magnified with super microscope.
The diameter is a mere 1mm.
Suturing these fine blood vessels without any mistakes. That is the superfical temporal artery anastomosis.
The person in charge of that surgery was no other but
Doctor Kim Doo Hyun, right here.
Well...
Sorry but.. the person in this video is someone else.
The surgery that Doctor Kim Doo Hyun preformed was so sudden and rushed to, we have no footage.
Ah, is that right?
Then this one?
It was Dr. Kim Ha Yun of Daehan Medical Center.
Isn't Dr. Kim Ha Yun the father of Dr. Kim Doo Hyun?
That is why I have great expectations of Dr. Kim Doo Hyun.
Please note that you are selected as a member of the project team. Please check the notice for details.
Announcement of Interdisciplinary Project Team Formation
The list is up.
I knew this was going to happen.
Yes?
I have something to say to you.
The director's collaborative project team has been formed.
Don't worry about this. It won't last long.
Well, that is...
Hurry up and talk. I have to go into surgery.
You and Dr. Lee Dong Seong are on the list.
As well as oriental medicine's Dr. Kim Seung Hyun and Dr. Min Joo Ahn.
Director.
Please take me off the project team.
I can't work with Doctor Kim Seung Hyun.
What's the reason?
Isn't Doctor Kim Seung Hyun your younger brother?
Not anymore.
I don't know why Seung Hyun switched to Oriental medicine,
but it's been two months since he started here. Why haven't you told your father?
I haven't seen Seung Hyun since he was a kid.
I didn't even think he was Ha Yoon's son, but...
That's not the case with you.
You didn't know that Ha Yoon was heartbroken when Seung Hyun disappeared, that he started taking anxiolytics?
I thought it would be harder on my father if he knew.
I'm not bringing this up because of that.
I'm not fit for the collaborative team.
- It's already been decided. - Diretcor!
When a brother refuse to work with his own brother, who would be willing to joing the team?
And what do you think your father will say when hears about it?
Don't you think he'd be disappointed?
If you don't say anything about it, there's no way my father will know.
You think so. I can't do anything about it if you insist that you can't do it.
Your dad will know without me telling him.
One day, you'll have a baby, too.
If you can not like them because you don't want to.
Ah.
You father apparently stopped taking anxiolytics recently.
You know what I'm saying?
I'm going to drink with your father tonight.
When I meet him, I'll tell him that you applied for the collaborative team for Seung Hyun's sake.
I think he'll be really thankful.
Why do I have to clean up after your mess?
I'm sorry about this.
Sorry or not, just be quiet and listen to me well.
From now on, follow whatever I tell you to do.
You have no need to think except for what I order you to.
-You know that makes no sense.-Whether it makes sense or not, I'll decide!
I'm a bit sorry things turned out like this.
But I don't like how you guys are
aggressive and demanding.
Good. The collaborative project or whatever started because of you,
you ruin it causing a scene.
Being carried away and killing patients, isn't that your specialty anyway?
"Interdisciplinary Project"?
Just know that it's going to fail for sure.
You call yourself a doctor?
What?
It's not difficult for me to cause a scene, but
saying that colleboration will fail for sure...
Are you saying that even if a patient comes in that can be saved by collaboration,
that you'll let them die?
There isn't sucha a patient whom can be saved by collaboration.
Either I save them without your help.
Or they'll die one way or another.
Are you being arrogant?
Are you dodging responsability?
Arrogant? You think I'd be arrogant in front of the scary cat like you?
Hey there, how about a drink?
Hey, what's wrong?
Just go. I'm not in the mood to drink now.
But I made a reservation...
You said you stayed in the hospital at the moment because there is someone at home?
Today, sleeping on the streets it will be better than the hospital.
You're right.
Things seem bleak when thinking about spending the next six months
with those hateful doctors.
J-Jeong Tae Seok!
Hey Jeong Tae Seok!!
Jeong Tae Seok! That jerk!
I'm going to kill you!
Even if it will get my license revoked!
Hey hey hey, if you keep this up he'll get a heart attack.
Oh hold on. My heart. No circulation...
Well that's that.
Have you given some thought to my idea?
That's enough.
What would I do at the hospital at this age?
It'll be time to retire in a couple years. You have to stay where you've been, and then leave to receive the proper treatment.
Your son, Seung Hyun almost got fired today.
If this carries on, then I guess he should leave after 6 months right?
If he leaves our hospital it'll be hard to get into a different one. Where will he go?
Why didn't you watch over him better?
Says the father who left the son.. What are you telling me to do?
He's made it this far, so I'm sure he'll be fine.
I heard from the oriental medicine department's director that Seung Hyun has the disposition of a wild ginseng digger.
If he leaves the hospital, I guess he'll probably go around digging up herbs.
What kind of crazy man said that?
How does Seung Hyun have the disposition of a wild ginseng digger?
He's just like that because he lived comfortably and he does not know how the world works.
What are you talking about?
Seung Hyun oversees all the medicines that come into the medicinal herb dispensary.
Apparently, Seung Hyun knows where they all come from.
They say you always think your children are like kids.
Although he is 30, he is still a child in your eyes, right?
What exactly did he do at the hospital?
Ah...
It seems like Seung Hyun made a mistake with his choice of words.
Seung Hyun had a slip of the tongue and a childish resident went around saying it so became a big issue.
The western and oriental medicine doctors got into a fight and the hospital turned into a beehive due to that.
You do not need to know the details.
Oh right.
Why did Seung Hyun become an Oriental doctor?
The great neurosurgeon Kim Ha Yoon's son is an oriental medicine doctor.
Don't even bring that topic up.

Eui Jin
Hello.
Seung Hyun, something bad's happened.
What happened?
Lee Eui Jin!
Hello?
The person you're calling can't be reached...
Lee Eui Jin!
I got accepted to the orchestra!
Enjoy life and
it'll be a happy ending for everybody, hooray, hooray!
Enjoy life and it'll be a happy ending, hooray, hooray!
A-ssa! A-ssa!
Aish. Congratulations.
Are you thinking about Eui Jin?
Why would I be thinking about you?
Not me.
The Eui Jin who's living inside your heart.
I'm really grateful to that person.
You treat me well because I have the same name as her.
If she was alive, you would have been married and had at least 12 children by now.
If she were still alive,
then you coming all the way here to find me, invading my house, causing me to sleep at the hospital would have never happened.
It works out. Clean up and get out!
Huh? I wasted all my money on those fireworks though..
What?
I'm serious. Fireworks are very expensive.
So, then?
Please show me more compassion.
Yah!!
Get out right now Lee Eu Jin!!!
Ah! A shooting star!
Ah!!

Integrated Care Conference Room
Hello, how are you?
Hello.
Doctor Kim.
Hey, wake up.
You're so carefree.
Why must you wake me up when nobody is still there?
Can you sleep in this situation?
Did you not know that nobody's going to come?
Hello?
I'm here at the meeting room.
Aren't you coming to this morning's coordination conference?
What?
Everyone's making their rounds?
Alright.
They're making rounds, so we might as well give it up and leave.
Oh, okay.
Hey, let's go.
What is this. Starting from the morning, just wasting our time.
Tell me about it. Do you finally have the slightest feeling what you did wrong, now?
Going down.
Come on.
What's this? Where are his manners?
They have created such a heavy mood, even the elevators have snapped.
Let's take this one.
Nobody went to the collaborative conference?
Not nobody. Two of the Oriental medicine doctors
and Chief Yoon of Radiology were there.
Did they not take me seriously?
If we don't push it, the collaboration sure will fail.
What the hell is going on?
An ICU cancer patient's was bad, I could not leave.
I could not leave.
I'm giving emergency treatment right now. I'll call you back later.
Collaboration? What collaboration? Oh my!
I couldn't attend because of an emergency operation.
I'm sorry. I couldn't make it becasue of the scheduled surgery.
I couldn't go because I was giving CPR.
- I had a deadline for my papers. - I had so many outpatients today, so I couldn't go.
I have a meeting with a patient's guardian. I'm sorry.
These people, really!
This is patient came to receive oreintal medecine treatment for bell's palsy.
That's it.
And yesterday we had the elderly woman with diabetes come in.
We don't call it diabete but"sohgal"
Ah, a thoughtless person somehow knows the terms "sohgal"?
Jeong Tae Seok.
Just because you have a mouth, should you be saying something?
Director Yang said that you should come to the seminar room immediately.
Did you forget that you are all members of the collaborative project team?
If you don't collaborate for nonsense reasons again,
I'll strictly enforce it.
From now on, the interdisciplinary project teams
will work together in all respect, including during conferences,
rounds, and if necessary, event in the surgery rooms.
Don't we need at least determine
whether the futur of medicine is collaborative medicine or whether collaborative medicine is the desilusion of an idealist?
Therefore from now on there will be a Project Leader.
-You're surgeon, you know him? -All of you know the professor, don't you?
He's a renowned doctor in neurosurgery. He'd been working at the Daehan Medical Center,
He's come to our hospital to work on this project.
This is Doctor Kim Ha Yoon.
My name is Kim Ha Yoon, it's a pleasure to meet you all.
Subtitles are brought to you by the Third Ward Team @ viki.com
My name is Kim Ha Yoon. It's a pleasure to meet you.
It's him, right? Right.
Chief of Radiology, Yoon Han.
Pleased to meet you.
Chief of Emergency Medicine, Oh Mi Hye.
Chief of Neurosurgery, Cho Seong Wook.
Doctor of Neurosurgery, Kim Doo Hyun.
The Director of Oriental Medicine is over here.
- It's nice to meet you. I'm Chae In Gook. - Nice to meet you.
Chief of Oriental Internal Medicine, Han Joon Ho.
Chief of Oriental Pediatrics, Jang Hye Sook.
Doctor of Oriental Internal Medicine, Min Joo An.
Doctor of Acupuncture and Moxibustion, Kim Seung Hyun.
My name is Kim Ha Yoon. Nice to meet all of you.
I thought you were going to stay at that hospital until you retired.
Father,
thought of you working on a cooperative project between Western and Oriental medicine
is rather unexpected.
I heard you had some trouble because of Seung Hyun.
Did you meet with Seung Hyun?
Why meet with him?
What's the reason for coming to this hospital?
In order to
make sure he doesn't run off again.
Do we have nothing else to do?
Why are we wasting our time here?
There a limit looking down on people.
Alright, let's get started.
But Doctor Lee Dong Seong hasn't arrived yet.
Doctor Lee Dong Seong had an emergency come up so he can't make it.
An emergency?
It seems that way, yes.
"It seems like it." What is that supposed to mean?
Is it an emergency or isn't it?
Sorry, but I don't know every detail. I was just sent to deliver the message.
Doctor Jang Ho Rok,
Aren't you Doctor Lee's trusted resident?
Does it make sense for the Chief Resident not to know if his Staff's case is urgent or not?
I'm sorry. His schedule is so busy these days . . .
Oh no, then this is a meeting of all the people with nothing to do?
So let the busy surgeon carry on and
we idle people will continue the meeting without him.
Begin. Yes.
The patient is Choi Hee Joo. She is five years old.
She has Moyamoya disease.
So the Oriental doctors can understand this disease I will explain it as pediatric stroke.
Although we do not know the cause.
Never mind. We know what Moyamoya disease is.
So is the case we are going to cooperate on?
No. This is a C.O.P. case.
Could you use brain surgery instead of "C.O.P" as this meeting includes both Oriental and Western medicine.
Shouldn't oriental doctors understand this terminology from your basic college studies?
The fact that we take basic medical training as undergraute class,
isn't a good excuse for you to use Western medical acronyms in the meeting.
What Dr. Kim Seung Hyun said is correct.
I will remember that.
Local...
No, I mean. She was diagnosed
at a local hospital with Moyamoya disease and they hace requested a new examination.
We found moyamoya style collateral vessels at the base of the brain.
The guardians of the patient, her parents haven't decided whether they will do the surgery,
but if we get permission...
Please excuse me.
The plan is to perform craniotomy as soon as we receive consent for the surgery.
By craniotomy, you mean...
We're planning to perform a surgery where we connect vessels in the brain.
Why aren't the guardians consenting to it?
Three surgeries are required over the span of several years.
Since the patient is young,
the parents are afraid of brain surgeries.
I think the Oriental medicine team just needs to give rehabilitation treatment
if necessary after the surgery.
Since the guardians haven't decided yet,
how about first seeing how Oriental medicine treatment goes?
You want to see how Oriental medicine treatment goes?
Yes.
The patient is a 5 year old child.
Are you saying that without knowing that diseases progress faster in children than in adults?
Why wouldn't I know that?
But as you said, the child
is only 5 years old, so...
Wouldn't brain surgery be fatal?
Hold on, Doctor Kim Seung Hyun.
Don't you know that a day for children is like 10 years for adults?
The patient's condition is progressing, so she could become a corpse
if we wait any longer.
Even if it's just while the parents are deciding,
seeing if acupuncture improves her symptoms...
What if it has no effect?
She can live a normal life if we just connect vessels, but...
You want to try Oriental medicine treatment?
You want to gamble with a child's life?
If it's an illness from an unknown source,
I think it's a good idea to approach it using Oriental medicine and treat it from the root.
It's an illness from an unknown source, not an incurable one!
There's already a method, so what is this about?
One surgery doesn't treat it. You need to open the skull three times.
I'm saying we should try it while the parents are deciding.
It's an urgent surgery fighting against time.
If the parents drag on because of some useless Oriental medicine...
The young child could sustain a fatal injury.
What's more... I won't do anything reckless with the patient's life on the line.
Next.
Deciding whether or not it's reckless is not up to you,
Dr. Kim Doo Hyun, but up to the patient's guardians.
The outcome of the surgery is decided by the doctor, not the guardians!
Why is that? If the patient dies,
the doctor takes responsibility not the guardians.
That's why the doctor bears the suffering and guilt when a patient dies, instead of the guardians.
Do you understand, Oriental medicine doctor?
What?
That's why the doctor bears the suffering and guilt when a patient dies, instead of the guardians.
Do you understand,
Oriental medicine doctor?
What?
What's going on?
Man, that was totally brutal.
I'm sweating after one collaborative meeting.
I thought I was going to suffocate.
I honestly don't understand the point of this kind of collaboration.
It's not a project to have doctors fight amongst themselves.
The bases are totally different...
Don't we have to wait and see whether or not the bases are different?
Just because the medical views and approaches are different...
Doesn't mean that they differ in the desire to save patients, right?
Still, we can't hold every collaborative meeting
feeling like we're walking on thin ice.
In the end, the patients will be the ones hurt by discord between doctors.
They might also benefit the most.
Doctor Jin, whose side are you on?
I know your father is an oriental doctor so you favor the Oriental Medicine department,
but you still need to know where to draw the line.
What? Doctor Jeong, could you keep your mouth shut?
The patient who had a stroke due to diabetes
is not doing well.
I think we should try restoring his pancreas' functionality using herbal medicine to treat the root cause.
You want to give the patient something that doesn't have fixed ratios
of substances and that isn't clinically proven?
Are you trying to kill a patient whose liver already isn't doing well because of diabetes?
If you give the patient insulin, his pancreas will completely
lose the ability to produce insulin and a bigger problem will result.
We need to treat the root cause.
Treat the root cause?
You mean harming the patient
with baseless treatment, not treating the root cause, right?
What did you say?!
Why are we part of this group anyway?
Hey. Stop, stop.
Everybody sit down, please.
Doctors only have the goal of treating.
I trust everybody has this engraved into their hearts.
I can't stand this anymore.
This won't work. Integration is foolishness. I can't stand this anymore.
This won't work. Integration is foolishness.
I can't take this anymore.
I'm leaving this hospital.
Doctor Jang.
Doctor Jang!
People are leaving because we're being forced to collaborate. Don't you think?
What don't you have anything to say?
What do you want to hear?
Do you still think that collaboration is the future of medicine that we need to pursue?
You're not sure, are you?
Stop, I get what you're trying to say.
Emergency! Emergency!
I'll leave first.
Bye. Work hard!
Why do I have to go to the police station?
I'm already upset that my daughter-in-law died. What do you mean, a police investigation?
Park Jin Ah's diagnosis has physical assault as the cause of her cerebral hemorrhage during pregnancy.
Let's go. Okay.
Let go of me.
No matter how unlearned you are...
It's a period of mourning. Is being a cop everything?
Look here, Ma'm.
The period of mourning isn't important right now. Don't you know what physical assault is?
If Park Jin Ah died because she was hit by somebody...
Then it's a given that the person who hit her is questioned. Okay?
Let's go. If you cooperate, it won't take long.
Look here.
Mother!
Why isn't the doctor coming?
Excuse me. Yes?
Is Doctor Jin available?
Do you have some sort of problem?
No, not exactly.
My daughter goes to kindergarten. I left her with my neighbors, but I heard she's crying a lot because I'm not there.
Can I go see her?
What are you talking about? Didn't you just get moved to the general ward the day before yesterday after having brain surgery and being in the ICU?
Yes. But still... I wanted to ask her.
Just a minute, please.
What are you going to do about my son?
Why are you blaming my innocent son
when you messed up and killed someone?
How can you do such a thing?
Ma'm, please calm down.
Do you think I can calm down?
What are you doing
in a funeral home?
Ma'am!
She's not answering.
Even if she did pick up, she'd definitely say that you can't.
They said that she's been crying for over an hour.
Can she spare just a moment for me?
That's not up to me to decide.
I'll ask her when she comes back.
Oh my goodness!
It's so visible.
Yes. This is Jin Hye In.
Patient Lee Jin Soo did?
I'm angry.
Is it because of the collaboration?
No. Director Yang is the weird one for thinking that the collaboration
would work after all that fighting.
Shall I rub your shoulders?
Sure.
Does that feel better?
Blood!
