-=Episode 11=-
They make it sound so good.
This is a prison. How is it a hospital?
Earlier when I came in, there were steel gates everywhere.
The place is crawling with policemen, watching us.
In a word, it's a prison with people wearing face masks.
Why have they brought us here? These people.
We're placed in the same room again.
Professor Choe?
If the professor himself is also infected
is there... no hope that a cure can be developed?
Mom, can't I take this off?
No, absolutely not.
Where are we going?
Why are we not going to the hospital that we went to previously?
We are going to another hospital.
Mom, I have to pee.
Ji Hun. What's wrong?
What is it?
I was feeling cold.
Can't I take this thing off?
No. No matter how stuffy you feel, just endure it for a moment.
You must never take it off.
Mom, blood.
Ji Hun, everything's fine. Close your eyes.
Ji Hun, everything's going to be fine. Don't cry.
Close your eyes. Good boy.
The busiest person in the Republic of South Korea, what can I do for you?
- Seonbae. - Yes?
Can I make use of one of your hospital rooms?
Hospital room? In my hospital?
Yes, it's for a person with viral infection.
But the child's mother can't bear to send her child to the isolation hospital.
This is unlike you.
You know better than anyone that is not possible.
I've already rejected three persons today.
The child's mom also said to care for the child temporarily
but what can we do?
If we have to take care of every person, everyone will end up dead.
I'm sorry. Sorry to trouble you.
Gyu Jin. Are you asleep?
Gyu Jin.
Did you switch off your phone?
- Madam Pak said she couldn't get in touch with you. - Oh.
Yes, it's me.
Hello?
I'm right in front of your house.
Please come out for a moment.
Please help me.
What's wrong? What is it?
I beg you, please save our Ji Hun.
What happened?
He has been infected.
How did this happen?
Previously, when I told you to help save all those people
that's just a load of crap.
I didn't expect things to turn out this way.
Please. Please. Please save him. Please...
He's still so young. Still a baby... What am I going to do?
Ju Hui.
Pak Ju Hui.
Ju Hui!
I will try.
I'm suffocating.
What's the difference between being here and in a coffin?
Is waiting for death to come all we can do? Huh?
Everyone obviously cannot sleep.
What options do we have?
Our one and only hope has turned into that.
This signifies it's game over.
Then why are we still attached to these drips?
I supposed this is a measure they take to alleviate their guilt.
Professor Choe.
I heard that the development of the therapeutic agent has already progressed to the final finishing stage.
Professor Yun Gyu Jin,
wasn't he working on the therapeutic agent too?
How far has he progressed?
Didn't he develop the previous therapeutic agent in a very short time?
- As long as we can find a carrier... - We will be dead by then,
what use is the cure?
That's right.
If we are all dead
even if they can produce a vaccine... that can rewrite the history of mankind,
what would be the use?
Therapeutic agent,
is there one or not, please come to the point.
Right now,
there's not a single place on this earth that has the therapeutic agent.
Wretched louses.
Obviously they cannot cure us, so why lock us up?
Locked up and then killed, that's their strategy.
The moment you are infected,
to them,
we are no longer human beings.
We are just the vat containing the virus that they have to kill.
What is it that they want the most?
For us to drop dead as quickly as possible.
They won't do that, right?
Look at it from their position and think.
To them, with no cure available,
they have to exterminate the virus somehow.
What ways do they have at their disposal to kill off the virus?
Isn't it to lock all of us up here and let us die together?
That's the only way they can live.
Those drips on you,
it would appear they are there to prolong your lives,
but in fact, it could be the opposite.
So, all we can do is wait for death to come?
There's only one way we can live.
A carrier. A person who is infected by the M2 virus and survived.
We have to find someone like that.
We know that too but we don't have a carrier.
Are you going to give up just because there's none?
If there's none, we have to create one.
Create? How?
The more people we infect the higher the chances of finding a carrier.
So when you say create, what you mean is
to go and create more infected people?
If the scientists cannot do anything about it, then it's for us to do something.
Because that is the only way we can survive.
Even so, how can a human...?
You don't have to feel guilty.
Everyone must have gone through this before.
Wanting an outbreak so badly that it's driving you crazy.
This blast of hot air in you, if you don't spit it out
it will engulf you!
That is the survival instinct.
Does one have to feel guilty... when it concerns one's survival instinct?
Ji Hun.
This is the hospital.
I will definitely come and take you home.
Why does the whole house smell of disinfectant?
Is something wrong with you?
They said they have not be able to reach you the entire day, the Director had to call me.
What is wrong?
What is it?
If it's going to be lengthy then let me change my clothes first.
Ji Hun.
What's wrong with Ji Hun?
I've sent him to the isolation hospital in Incheon.
What?
Our Ji Hun
has been infected.
Are you sure?
I've done the verification test 12 times.
And Ji Won? He seems to be having a fever.
Ji Won is fine.
Has Ji Hun's illness manifested?
Rashes?
Faint signs, on the upper body.
Heartless.
Even though I know Pak Ju Hui is a heartless woman
but still, how can you put your own child...
How can you not even give me, the father, a call?
I really want to call you. I was just too terrified.
The only person I can share this with is just you.
But...
I was afraid... I was afraid that this is how you would react.
That's why I didn't call you.
If you were to say to keep the child hidden,
I was afraid I would agree to that.
Let's sit down here.
Without me, you must be feeling lonely, right?
Yes, the empty space you left behind is really too big.
Right.
Mr.Gang and Dr. Lee are both quite capable.
Work is not a problem.
Isn't it when a person gets promoted he should take care of his own people?
My right hand men.
But to be honest, I feel like I'm left hanging in midair.
But, now you don't feel the same way?
If I can have someone like you as my right hand man, I would have no regrets.
If I can be your right hand man, I too would have no regrets.
I'm talking without thinking.
No, you are not.
After I contracted the infection,
I now fully realize who's on my side.
Mr. Gang Ju Heon,
on becoming aware of Dr. Lee's condition, went as far as diving into the waters.
I thought he was just doing his duty as a team leader.
But?
Ah, this is like speaking ill of others.
It's just the two of us here, go on.
Just doing his duty...
Since my infection, he has not even come once.
Not once?
I saw him once because of official business
he never even asked me, something like "are you tired?"
There you have it. I've told you before.
That definitely was not out of a sense of duty.
I guess you're right.
I couldn't see it then.
Now it's crystal clear to me.
Team Leader.
What is it?
Tell me? What do you want to say?
If it puts you in a tight spot, you may refuse it.
I want to send some e-mails.
Of course you would.
You didn't have time to think of anything else when you were warded,
of course you'd want to.
Taking advantage of the time when I'm still mentally sound--
You are mentally sound. Don't try to scare yourself.
Yes.
So?
Can you lend me a tablet pc for a day?
That will put you in a spot, right?
You know, under the rules, we are not allowed to bring in anything.
It's all right.
It's time for you to leave, isn't it?
Forget I asked.
Dae Ik.
I'll find an opportunity and bring one in.
Really?
You can start.
Hello everyone.
I am Choe Su Cheol, a member of the CDC's Advisory Committee.
The CDC is working in tandem with the state in combating infectious diseases.
Combating, preventing and building a system to raise the awareness of chronic diseases.
Supporting organ donations and managing transplantation.
Through quarantine we are able to stop the disease from spreading overseas and becoming a pandemic.
All these are part of our tasks.
But no matter how much effort we put in
when it comes to containing M2
we have failed.
M2 is a pathogen that humankind has never experienced before.
Let's not even talk about the therapeutic agent,
we are not even close to isolating the antibodies.
To date, the rate of death is 100%.
I've also been infected.
In this room,
apart from me, there are 5 to 6 others who are infected.
We are now imprisoned.
But...
imprisoning us
does not mean M-2 can be isolated or prevented.
The speed that M-2 proliferates is beyond our imagination.
Isolation and containment is not the solution.
The only solution is
to find someone who has been infected by M-2 and survived.
The problem is no one knows who this person might be.
It's apparent that person has not been infected yet.
So until a person with M-2 antibodies makes his appearance,
day in day out,
do we have to watch our wives, our children, our husbands, our parents die?
We have to find that person as quickly as possible.
If that is the case.
If that is the case
we should spread it as far and as wide as possible.
The faster we do it, the less victims we'll have.
If they try to stop us,
even if we have to break the windows. we must get out onto the streets
and spread it.
Only by spreading it, will we have a chance to survive.
Among family members.
Among neighbours.
Let's infect as many people as possible.
Min Ji's mother.
How do you do?
Oh yes, how is Min Ji?
Because she's in an isolation hospital, I can't even visit her as no visitors are allowed.
Min Ji is really missing her teacher and friends.
Today is Min Ji's birthday.
By right, Min Ji should be the one to distribute this.
Just take it as a token of regard from Min Ji.
Please enjoy this.
But why did you prepare so much?
Please come in.
Thank you.
Quiet!
After watching the video,
I can feel the hair on my back standing up.
I was wondering whether it's the same Professor Choe that I knew.
How could he do this?
He being a scientist...
He has now morphed into a calculative monster.
From the picture quality and the audio,
they seem to indicate the filming was well-planned.
It was recorded using a tablet pc.
But I remember we had confiscated all the handphones,
so what could have happened?
Team leader Pak Do Gyeong...
I'm sure you still remember Dr. Gim Dae Ik?
The story came out in the investigation right here in the Situation Room.
Is it that 'parachute' guy?
Yes, he said Dr. Gim wanted to use so...
Geez.
Regardless of how softhearted he is, he should know where to draw the line.
Just because of this, the entire country is now reeling.
You crazy man.
Because of you...!
Why me?
Do you think so little of me?
There's also Gang Ju Heon and Li Na Hyeon, why did you pick me?
You are laughing at me?
How dare you laugh when you caused the entire country to panic?
Didn't you say you want me to be your right hand man?
What is a right hand man?
To be able to live together
and die together, don't you agree?
To walk the last mile together, isn't it?
What happened?
Are you alright? Come, get up.
Now you are one of us.
Go out.
Go out there and yell.
Go and call the police officer.
Return here with those people who are out there.
Still, what can you do?
It's already a done deed.
Did I prick you a bit too deep?
I'm sorry.
How is Gim Seong Ho's condition?
Let's talk on the way.
I'll drive.
Okay.
He lost consciousness thrice in the plane. He's running a fever.
Are these signs the disease is manifesting?
Except for a fever and a cough, he has no other symptoms, am I right?
That's right.
It's confirmed he has been infected?
Yes.
Even those researchers who brought him back were infected.
Victims seems to be appearing continually.
Could he... be a carrier?
The whole team is dead except for him.
It means there's every likelihood that's he's a carrier.
If he is a carrier,
just like how you developed the synbodies for M-1,
how long will it take?
We need to come up with it in the shortest time possible.
The illness has started to manifest inside Ji Hun.
We had already produced it before.
We should be able to shorten the time.
Hello, Administrator Pak.
Gim Seong Ho has just been transferred to intensive care.
Yes, that's right.
Has the infection started to manifest?
=Right now, there's still no signs of rashes or haemorrhaging.=
Then first, do a bone marrow aspiration.
That's going to be somewhat difficult.
He's still unconscious and his blood pressure is dropping rapidly.
We have to wait until his condition stabilizes.
I know what Team Leader Gang must have felt,
aspirating the bone marrow without the patient's consent.
"Whether he dies or not is inconsequential, what's important is to aspirate his bone marrow now."
I wanted to say that but I managed to stop myself.
Over there.
Are you all right?
Professor.
Is Gim Seong Ho still alive?
Yes. Gim Seong Ho is still alive.
- He is a carrier... - Hold him please.
Carrier...
Professor.
What are you scared of?
It's a sedative.
Just take a rest.
Be quiet.
Lower your head.
From now, anyone who steals a look at me, I will prick you.
Lower your heads.
Everyone, lower your heads.
Quick. Get out of harm's way.
What's wrong?
The infected patients have escaped and are pricking people randomly.
The situation is out of control.
You can't go in at this moment.
What happened?
The patients are rioting.
Riot? In the isolation hospital?
Yes.
It's here! It's here!
Is there anyone there?
We have come to rescue you.
Mr. Gim Seong Ho?
Come. Come out.
It's all because of you, Gim Seong Ho.
Even if it weren't for you...
At the very least, you should die before me.
Only then is it fair.
Ji Hun will be fine.
That ward is only occupied by children.
He must be terrified.
Where is your superintendent?
Hold on.
Hello Team Leader.
Dr. Lee. Where are you right now?
Team Leader, what about you? Where are you?
I'm on my way there from headquarters.
I heard there has been a riot.
Yes, the infected patients are getting roused up.
Where are you now?
I'm in a safe place, so don't worry.
I thought you couldn't come out because of Gim Seong Ho.
How is Gim Seong Ho's condition?
The doctor in intensive care has aspirated his bone marrow.
I took that and am now in a safe place.
So don't worry.
When I heard about the riot
I had a fright. I was terrified that you--
Afraid that I'll give you trouble once again?
That won't happen, trust me.
I trusted you each and every time
but you can't trust me?
All right. I'll see you in a short while.
Yes, Team Leader.
Gim Seong Ho, you are awake.
Can you hear me?
Is there anything you want to say?
- I... here...
You want to know where is this place?
You have return safely to South Korea.
This is Incheon's isolation hospital.
Choe Su... Professor Choe Su Cheol...
Professor Choe Su Cheol?
He has passed away.
You should take a rest, we'll talk later.
You can't go in now.
Should you provoke them, we don't know what the consequences will be.
There's a very important patient in there that we have to bring out.
No. It's fine if I'm allowed to go in by myself.
I am sorry.
Orders from the higher-up, in suppressing this riot, we are to ensure there are no victims.
Because this matter has now made international headlines.
It will be reported live via satellite.
Can't you just talk to them?
He has to survive.
If only we can communicate with them.
We have to do something!
Let me talk to them.
I am Pak Ju Hui, from the centre for infectious diseases of the CDC.
I, more than anyone else, understand how you feel.
My son's name is Ji Hun.
Gim Ji Hun. He's 7 years old.
Ji Hun is just like all of you.
He is in there too.
Every second, every minute of the day, I prayed for a cure.
But like a miracle,
we've found a possible carrier.
The person who may be able to save my son and all of you
is now in the isolation hospital.
The M-2 carrier's name is Gim Seong Ho.
At my side here is Professor Yun Gyu Jin.
Only by obtaining his bone marrow, can we come up with a therapeutic agent.
To do this we need your cooperation and assistance.
Please help us.
Going outside and infecting others
will not solve the problem.
Please give us a chance to save my son and all of you.
Let's just bring Gim Seong Ho out.
Do you think there's any truth in what they say?
Let's just bring him out.
It won't do us any harm.
They are lying. Don't trust them.
Just give them Gim Seong Ho.
Have you forgotten what Professor Choe said?
Their objective is to kill us all.
To wipe us out together with the virus.
They are just paying lip-service to this
and when we do bring him out, they will seize that moment and suppress us by force.
Don't you understand that by now?
Even so, if what they say is true...
Isn't Gim Seong Ho a carrier?
Even if we want to bring him out, it's impossible to do so.
What do you mean by that?
You are saying?
Gim Seong Ho is dead.
Are you sure?
I confirmed that before coming here.
Even if someone is dead, the bone marrow--
Keep your mouth shut!
Come with me.
What are you trying to do?
Right now, those people only believe that bone marrow from a living person is of any value.
That's why I'm saying, the bone marrow from a dead person can still be used to develop a therapeutic agent--
Even if we aspirate his bone marrow,
to create the synbodies will take at least a week.
You are a doctor, you should know.
Whether they can actually develop the therapeutic agent or not is inconsequential.
We're dead anyway.
So?
I want to be like a normal person, to live and then die.
I don't want to lie down like a corpse in a suffocating isolation room and then die.
Do you want to die in that manner?
We are going to die anyhow.
I want to have fun before dying. You don't want to?
What fun?
What does a person live for?
To be able to have some exhilarating fun at least once.
That would be enough, right?
Right now...!
Can't you see they are dying a slow death?
What has that got to do with me?
Think about it.
In any case, you won't be able to live for long.
At most, three days?
First you'll be spitting blood, then your lungs will start haemorrhaging
and finally, you'll be lying there like a dead person.
To be able to walk like what you are doing now,
this could very well be the last day you are able to do that.
That last day is right now.
Since you are going to die anyway, why are you worrying about others?
Look at them.
they are no longer corpses lying on a hospital bed.
They are alive!
They are happy.
Who are you to take away that happiness from them?
In order to save others,
we should give up the last day of our life?
The person who wrecks my final day
regardless of who he is, I will kill him.
If you don't want to die then just shut up.
Hey. We must not waver.
Go out and infect as many people as possible!
Look. I've already said you can't get through to them.
Mr. Gang.
Where were you coming from?
I rushed over from headquarters.
But why are you still here, Professor?
Gim Seong Ho is still inside.
Regarding Gim Seong Ho's bone marrow, Dr. Lee...
Dr. Lee?
Yes, she said she had left that place after aspirating the bone marrow.
What are you...?
Dr. Lee, she's not here?
No, she's not.
If she had aspirated the bone marrow, she should have come out by now...
Team Leader.
Where are you right now?
Still in the isolation hospital?
Yes.
What do you think you're doing right now?
Patient was in a critical condition.
I couldn't leave.
It's almost ready.
Gim Seong Ho has consented to have his bone marrow aspirated.
It won't be long before I aspirate his bone marrow and leave this place.
So, don't worry.
Just stay where you are and wait for me. Don't take a step anywhere.
Is Dr. Lee still with Gim Seong Ho?
Yes, the patient is in critical condition.
Seems like she can't come out.
Bone marrow?
She said she's going to aspirate it now.
Can she make it out safely?
I'm afraid it's going to be difficult for her to make it out by herself.
The isolation hospital is now a war zone.
All the exits have been sealed off.
Is there a way to enter from our end?
That will be even more difficult. They are guarding the entrances.
Even our team of special agents are unable to get in.
We can't even get close to them.
Furthermore, they are not normal people.
If they come into close contact with them and get hurt in the process, they will be infected.
Who would want to go inside?
I will go in.
Even our special agents have given up.
If there are too many people, it's likely they will be discovered.
But one person should be able to do it.
With your protective clothing, you'll be discovered before you can even take ten steps forward.
What if I don't wear any protective clothing?
Mr. Gang.
Get me a set of clothing that the patients wear.
-=Next Episode Preview=-
Next time, let's have a drink together.
Have you obtained Gim Seong Ho's bone marrow?
The mention of your son causes me much distress too.
Team Leader Gang has gone in,
he will bring the bone marrow out.
Listen closely. In a very short while, I will turn on the lights in the operating theatre across from here.
Team Leader. Then what about you, Team Leader?
I put my trust in you, Dr. Lee.
We're not normal patients. Have you forgotten?
No, I remember very clearly.
Eo Gi Yeong. I want to let you die like a human being.
Is this what you hope for?
Among lovers.
