Episode 5
Even if it's tiring, keep doing it.
Of course.
She didn't die.
Her hands are warm, and her heart is beating.
Yes...
She's a very kind person.
If you just look at how she lived with an unstylish, boring guy like me, you can tell.
You're going to do it for me, right?
You're going to talk it over with the child's mother, right?
Dr. Jo.
He's an organ donor child.
If you leave him alone, his heart's going to be unstable anyway.
Jo Moon Kyung.
After that, I'll become a donor too.
If I fall into a brain dead state I'll give up my body too. Really.
I'll set it up right away.
If I could just save our Seung Min, I will do anything.
I can give a liver or a kidney right away.
Get a hold of yourself.
How can I get a hold of myself when my son is dying!
Even if you don't have a child, how can you say things so easily?
First, we can tell them the option of donating but we can't ask them to.
I know. That's why I'm asking you a favor.
Jo Moon Kyung is asking Ahn Joong Geun a favor like this.
Secondly, even if they agree it doesn't mean that they can choose who to give it to.
If we just get them to donate, our Seung Min will get it.
Do you think there will be a donor recipient as young as Seung Min?
And lastly, what's that child's blood type?
That child's blood type is A.
His blood type doesn't even match Seung Min's! Are you really saying that because you don't know?
Let's wait. A donor will appear. Wait.
Doctor, a donor has appeared.
- A donor appeared? - Yes.
A fifteen year old got into a traffic accident.
There's currently three people that can be the recipient including Seung Min.
Among them, Seung Min is the most similar and they are both young.
Then, what about the KONOS's decision?
We are currently waiting for KONOS's decision.
It will be decided soon. The percentage is 99%.
- Ok. Then what about the time. - Don't you know it's impossible to predict that?
Do you think I'm asking because I don't know?
If fast, 6 hours later, if late, tomorrow morning.
- Who's going for the heart? - I'm going, who else?
- Location? - Cheonju City
Who's preparing for the surgery here?
Dr. Jung will be doing it.
Yes, this is the surgical center.
Yes, wait a moment please. It's KONOS.
I'm Lee Seung Min's head doctor, Ahn Joong Geun. Now talk.
Really? Yes, I understand.
They said it's not Seung Min.
Why?
The child who went to Seoul Hospital suddenly had to have a VAD attached, and he became first on the list due to unexpected complications.
Does your leg hurt a lot? You don't look very well.
Would it be good for a man who couldn't protect his wife to look well?
It was the first time in since six years we went out to Seoul.
If we had just come three years ago like we had promised,
then this kind of incident wouldn't have happened.
Is she breathing? Is my wife breathing?
Hold on a second
Yes, she's breathing, she's breathing. She's alright.
- Are you alright? - No. I can't move.
Don't move. Just stay still.
Mister. Mister.
Mister, are you alright? Are you alright?
Yes, I'm alright. Are you alright?
Yes, I am. The guardian's leg got hurt again. What's happening?
I tried to avoid a car coming over the divider and we slipped while I was spinning the handle.
I'll go out and see the situation first.
What is it? I think there's something wrong.
Mister! Mister, what's wrong? Mister, what happened? Mister!
Yes, The thing is, the situation isn't all that great, so don't move!
Don't move! Ah, since a phone call's urgent, I'll have to let them know our location.
- Hello? - Mister!
I think we're hanging in midair... on my side.
That's why the car leaned backwards this way when mister went off.
The car is probably hanging off a cliff. I'm sure of it.
Then what do we do? We have to get off quickly!
How can we get off? I'm telling you it's hanging!
We can't open the door on this end, then what about my wife?
I can't move because I'm injured, so all we can do is wait for the rescue team.
- Why did you stop squeezing the ambo? - Oh.
Why? Do you want to go out?
Huh? No! We'll be rescued soon.
These days if you call for an emergency, they come right away.
Don't worry. Don't worry at all.
I'm not worried.
Even if I die this way, it doesn't really matter.
What is this, Seung Min suddenly got worse?
Yes.
How can this happen? How long can he endure?
One month.
One month? Even if you attach a VAD?
It can't get to the situation where you attach a VAD, uncle.
A heart for transplant has to appear by then.
Do you think it's as easy as it sounds?
You'll be struck by thunder, waiting. An adult's heart won't work, right?
Uncle.
How could you leave the child alone until he got to this state?
I wouldn't say anything if his parents weren't doctors, but how could you let the child get that bad and not know.
Do you think you could operate now? If it's difficult, want me to do it?
Mister! Is the rescue team still far away?
They said that they were almost here, but I can't see them yet.
It's been a while since they said they were coming.
How about the car's condition? It's enough to endure, right?
- Are you alright? - No, I'm not!
Please tell the rescue team to come quickly!
Ok! I'll call them again!
Then, get out, doctor.
Huh?
I'll go over there and you hand me the ambu bag.
Just hold on a second.
No, no. Just stay there.
I don't think it'll work because the car will shake.
I'll squeeze the ambu bag. It's ok. Just stay there.
Then, get out and leave the ambu bag.
I'm not just saying it. I mean it.
My wife is no better than dead.
I keep telling myself that it's not true, but I know.
I know what that means... What being brain dead means.
And if I'm lucky, the car will hold even if you go out. If I'm unlucky...
If I'm unlucky, then, I'll be able to keep the promise with my wife.
My wife once said, "When we grow old, let's die together on the same day at the same time."
Leave.
Hurry.
I want to rest now.
Mom!
Mom...
You're saved! You're saved!
The crane's pulling the car up now!
Are you alright?
Yes, I'm alright, but the guardian hurt his injured leg again.
I think it's a fracture but I'm not sure.
I was wondering what I should do.
Should I go to the hospital or should I just go straight to Seoul?
What are you talking about?
They can do emergency treatment over there, so just come on up.
It's okay, so just come up.
But in return, come slowly. Something big could've happened.
Ok, I know, so just be careful coming up. Ok.
Are they okay? They're not hurt anywhere?
They're not hurt and they're safe.
But the guardian seems to have been a little injured.
Dr. Bong could've gotten into a big incident.
What's wrong with today? There are continuous big accidents.
I know. What's wrong with the surgical department?
Hey, Park Jae Bum, it's because of you.
- I need some antibiotics. - Why you acting like that.
What are you doing?
He lost consciousness and came in.
And last year he received treatment for rheumatic too.
We've been doing CPR for forty minutes, but without success.
I'll do it. Move away.
He's been unresponsive for thirty minutes,
so there's a big possibility that he might have Rheumatic Fever.
So?
- There's no need for CPR. - What are you talking about?
If there's a slight chance, you've got to do everything to save him! Move.
- More Atropine and epinephrine. - Yes, doctor.
What are you guys doing? Get your heads straight!
He's coming back! He's back! He came back, doctor!
Do you know a way how to cure Seung Min?
No, I haven't found it... yet.
Why can't you find it?
If you're his Dad, then you have to find it.
Your son is dying.
If you're his dad, you must find a way to save him.
I really wanted to shout those words at you.
Like this... I just want to.
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry that I can't even put it into words.
But it wasn't intentional.
If I had known at the time of the wedding, I wouldn't have had Seung Min.
I contemplated that countless times.
When you didn't think twice,
brought up divorce,
left to the U.S., and I was left alone,
I hated Seung Min.
Why did he appear. Why was he born
to mess up my life so much?
Dr. Jo.
I hated the child so much.
A sinless child...
Stop it.
But then, the child's sick.
My son is receiving all of my sins.
I'll kneel down and beg you.
I'll kneel to you now.
I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. It's all my fault.
What are you doing? Get up.
It's my fault. My fault.
Don't do this. Get up quickly.
Let me beg. I need to beg.
So that the heavens will forgive me, even if it's just a little, and Seung Min...
Get up.
Drink this and get some sleep.
I'll watch over Seung Min tonight.
Will you sit down just for a while?
He liked playing Cubix with you
and while you were in the U.S. he was addicted with reptiles.
He says that Dinosaurs are boring.
I kept putting him to sleep even though I don't know when he might wake up.
He'll like it if you play it with him when he's awake.
Alright.
Could you do it not only for tonight, but for every night?
Just until Seung Min gets better.
I wasn't that good being a Mother, but you were always the best Dad for him.
Is this a difficult favor?
How is this a difficult favor?
What's the matter?
What do you mean?
Do you think this makes sense?
What kind of sentence is this?
Bong Dal Hee came back alive, and they're all sleeping?
You were still here? It's late.
I just came out from checking up on Seung Min.
He didn't get worse, did he?
- Yeah. - That's a relief.
Are you okay?
I heard that you were in danger.
- You heard? - Of course.
Are you hurt anywhere?
Yeah...
But you're hurt.
- Isn't it a ligament? - No, it's not to that extent. I'm alright.
How is it?
I think it's alright.
It has to be alright. Do you think it's ok to "think it's alright"?
And it's your right hand, as well.
Go to the emergency room and get an x-ray done. Make sure it's ok.
Ok.
I like being a doctor.
I don't know why. I just like it. Especially being a surgeon.
Even if I did Liver TPLS for over ten hours, to the point where I can't feel my legs,
and even if I did Whipple surgeries, I never really thought it was very exhausting.
When I see a dying person get better and walk out the hospital doors after I work over ten hours,
I'm actually grateful, grateful that they survived and lived. Lived.
But today, yesterday, and the day before that, It's hard being a doctor.
Because I'm a doctor, there's nothing I can do. And when I learn more about DCMP,
the more I fall into despair.
- It's all done. - Thank you.
Don't get sick. Don't get hurt either.
I told you we waited for you.
But as we waited... what's up with your hand?
Did you get hurt? I thought you said you didn't get hurt.
I thought at least Park Jae Bum would've waited for me.
Now we will now start the case conference.
First case, a forty nine year old dermatosclerosis patient who had already been diagnosed with AAA upon arrival,
I'm sorry, I'm sorry. It's just that it's an emergency.
Doctor a donor has appeared.
Speak more specifically.
Yes. The donor's a twenty five year old woman.
- Isn't that not even worth speaking? - Continue.
- What's there to continue? - I told him to do so.
What about body?
Yes. Height, 153 cm, weight, 43 kg.
And like Seung Min, she has blood type B and has an ejection fraction of 75%.
Ok. That's enough.
What do you mean, "ok"?
Are you trying to say that you're going to transplant an adults' heart into our Seung Min?
Yes. I will be going ahead.
What are you talking about?
DCMP is a disease where the heart dilates more and more.
Seung Min's heart has already dilated enough.
There's no one here who doesn't know that.
Listen to all of it. In the case of a DCMP,
It's possible the patient can accept a heart that belongs to a person bigger in physique than him or her.
Up to two times the weight of his or her own. Seung Min is 21 kg and the donor is 43 kg. It's possible.
The important thing is not the heart size but the artery size.
Do you really think an adult heart's artery can fit with Seung Min's seven year old artery?
They're completely different sized.
Anastomosis is impossible, so how are you going to do a transplant?
It's possible with an oblique line.
Then has there been any success case with a heart transplant between an adult and a child?
Is there or no? Try to answer me.
There are none.
So you're saying that you're trying to conduct a surgery with Seung Min that has never been done before?
- Yes, I am. - You can't.
There's always a first for everything, Chief. And those first have led to developments in math and science.
- Chief Suh. - What is wrong with it?
The only reason not to do it is just because the artery sizes don't match.
That's the decisive point!
When you connect the two arteries, they have to match up seamlessly,
but logically, how can an adult's artery match up with a child's artery?
Dr. Ahn can do it! Believe in him!
He'll succeed and set a record for Korea's history of surgical operations!
Are you saying that you'll use our Seung Min to set a record?!
- I'll say this again, but if we try it... - You can't!
No matter how much I think over it, you can't.
Then, do you have another way other than this one?
Wait again until a new donor appears?
How do you know when the new donor will appear?
Yes. That's what makes me so crazy.
But I can't lose a child while having an operation when the chances are so slim!
Another donor can appear.
If you don't do anything and wait it out, the child will die.
You don't give poison to a child just because he's starving!
How is it poison?! I told you I can do it!
No matter how great your abilities excel others, you're still going to be using current medical science!
What do you think, Dr. Jo?
- It's still undecided, right? - Not yet.
I say that I can do it, and the other party is having problems with it.
If you're not going to do it, we have to give it up to the next in line.
Of course, I'm
going to accept the surgery.
What do you think?
I give one vote to Dr. Lee Gun Wook's opinion.
- This is a difficult issue... - They have to do the surgery.
- You can't just sit around until a new donor comes up. - It's better than a pointless attempt.
That's how history is made. And Ahn Joong Geun is a genius.
- He's a genius but he's not a god. - Yeah.
The probability is just way too low. The kid hasn't attached a VAD.
They're just predicting he'll hold for one month.
But you don't know what'll happen the next day.
It's just a greedy notion.
It can also take away the chance of another person waiting for the organ.
- I think Dr. Jo is right. - Then he can just succeed.
Right, right. He can succeed.
How can you oppose?
Why do you think this kind of surgery has never been conducted before?
Even if the probability is just 5%. Then do you have another option?
If we just leave our Seung Min like this, he can't even go on for a month.
Yes, I know. I know that the only thing to do is just wait.
- Then just tell me to die. - You're not the only one.
The hardest and most painful thing for me is to wait for a new donor.
It's so hard to say no to a surgeon who seems so confident he'll succeed.
Is it really? Is it really that painful?
What are you talking about?
He's not even your son anymore.
If it was like in the past, I might've opposed the operation as well.
But I can't do that anymore.
One sudden day,
I found out that the son that I thought was ours, was only mine,
that my son could have DCMP,
and I also realized that a donor might not appear.
Then why do you believe this surgery will be a success?
Having to decide between dying while waiting or dying while in surgery, I'm for the latter.
If it was my life, I would've done the same.
If it was my life, I would've run into a bomb filled street than rather be shot sitting down.
But this is Seung Min's life.
Like you said, it's your son, Seung Min.
Your son's life, the Seung Min that's NOT my son! You know?!
Yeah, it's my son.
That's why I'm the one to decide.
After the decision's made, we're doing the surgery no matter what.
I can do it. All surgeries have risks.
I'm not taking away the chances of others waiting for donors.
We can always succeed and we're confident.
Is there anything wrong with my argument?
If there is, tell me.
The child can't breathe and is dying!
Do we have to block the chance of this child's survival
just because the operation has never been conducted before?
He's just a seven year old child who's never had a chance in life!
Aren't we supposed to have a go at it no matter how much the odds are against us?
This is KONOS.
This is Ahn Joong Geun. Please go ahead.
The donor transplant has been approved for patient Lee Seung Min.
We cheer for your success.
Of course. Now all we have to do is succeed and make it in Korea's surgical history.
Thanks.
We're going to make the decision tonight. We need to hurry and get the operation done.
Get the helicopter ready and schedule a room for the operation.
Call up Dr. Jung and tell him to come immediately.
- We don't have time. Hurry up. - Yes.
Doctor, Seung Min's condition is not good.
No matter how much medication we use, the heart's hardly beating.
We have to attach a VAD immediately.
Do we really have to attach it?
We'll have the surgery soon after the organ is harvested.
- I don't want to open this child's chest twice. - We have to attach immediately.
If we just leave it alone, we don't know when the heart will stop.
Hope you enjoy it!
Welcome, Oh my!
It's, it's really Mom.
Mom!
- Are you really surprised? - Of course.
- What happened? You didn't even call. - I didn't do it on purpose.
- I thought it would make you uncomfortable. - Still, You came here all by yourself?
- Hey, can you let me sit down first? - Oh, yeah.
It's nice to see my daughter's face.
You got prettier. When did you do your hair? It's pretty.
It's nice to see you too, But, Mom, you don't look too well.
Huh? Oh, it's because I had a hard time coming here, that's why.
So why come here? I told you I'd be going down next week.
Honestly, I came to go to the hospital.
Hospital? Why?
My stomach kept hurting so I went to the clinic, but the clinic doctor told me to go to a bigger hospital.
So I went to the big hospital thinking that I'd see my daughter too.
Where and how much are you hurting? Are you really sick?
No, I'm not really sick. Can you look at this?
Do you have any idea what's written on it?
Here it is. Look at this.
You don't have any idea, do you?
It would be nice if Dal Hee was here at a time like this. Right?
So really, how sick are you?
Do you still think that your judgment is right?
The child even attached a VAD.
Yes? Really? Alright.
The decision's been made.
Are you confident?
Even if you aren't, make this happen and succeed.
You have to save Seung Min.
I'm asking you a favor.
Do you ask a favor like this?
Don't you think it's a very poor way of asking a favor?
- Then what should I do? Do you want me to kneel? - If you can kneel, kneel.
If it's your child, would you do it?
You opposed it so much and now after it's all done, You just throw out a word like this?
Even if you don't say so, Seung Min is now my patient.
So don't ask pathetic favors like that. It's disgusting.
- I don't know why I have to take all this criticism from you. - Because you abandoned the child!
Because you abandoned the child that didn't know anything and believed that you were his father.
Forget it.
I don't know why I'm talking to a useless bastard like you when I have no time to spare.
I'm sorry.
Please save Seung Min.
I'm begging you.
What are you talking about? The helicopter will be taking off soon!
How long will it be delayed? Fine.
Dr. Bong has arrived and is waiting.
Lee Jong Min says that the CABG has been extended. Isn't there anybody else?
- Isn't there anybody to ride the helicopter? - Me, doctor! I'm surgeon Bong Dal Hee.
- What is this? - Bong Dal Hee will be going with us.
She has no other schedule. We needed an extra hand at the surgical site.
Hurry up!
Go ahead! Be careful!
If we are to transport Lee Seung Min to the surgery room, we have to cross general territory.
There is a big risk of declining his condition, so in order to minimize the risk,
we have to move quickly as possible in the shortest time with minimal impact.
More importantly, we have to make sure that not even one cord is not disconnected.
Make a mistake, and Seung Min could die right on the spot.
I think the speed getting there is a bit slow.
No, you can't. You have to think about stability too. We have to maintain this.
Go a little slower. Slower.
Heart rate is going down!
Check the dopamine and epinephrine line! Quickly!
Hey, don't touch things so carelessly! If the cannula comes out, then Seung Min will die.
There are too many lines and cords that I can't tell what's disconnected.
Find it quick! Quick!
Quick, quick... ahh, I can't see.
Here it is! Here!
Move, we don't have time!
Clip.
We are done retrieving the organ and we're leaving.
I'll call you again every ten minutes till arrival
so make sure that Seung Min is ready within five minutes of us getting there.
The rain's pouring down, so we can't lift off.
I called an ambulance, so proceed.
- Doctor? - Oh, hello.
I wanted to meet you.
- Yes. - I couldn't say goodbye last time.
- Is your leg okay? - It's enough to bear.
My wife... passed away today.
She became a donor.
My wife wanted to do it all her life but I opposed it.
But after I overcame those things, I felt that I needed to do it.
Because of you, doctor, I lived. My wife and I.
I am thankful that you squeezed the ambu and stayed by her until the end.
I'll remember that for the rest of my life.
It's nothing.
- But, what are you doing here? - Huh?
Because I have a patient...
Oh. Then I'll be going now.
Wait,
I actually was about to let go of the ambu and leave.
It's not that I didn't go out... I couldn't go out because the car shook.
Honestly, I saw it with my own eyes if you really went out or not.
Please become a good doctor.
No matter how good the heart is, if we don't transplant it in 200 minutes. The surgery is pointless.
It doesn't matter if you take long routes or short cuts.
- Just make sure you arrive on time. - Yes.
- The initial surgery to remove the heart is done. - Good job.
We have to get rid of the clamp in 40 minutes
and anastomosis won't be easy. We don't have time.
Yes. They just arrived and they have started the surgery.
Razor. Cut.
Release the clamp.
Prepare the charge.
- 20 Joules charge. - It's ready.
Shock.
20 Joules.
- It's charged 20 Joules. - Shoot.
Again, 30. Shoot.
This was it.
The reason why I wanted to do this job.
My heart keeps racing and my blood gets hotter.
I love this job.
To ensure that this surgery is successful, he needs to urinate.
He needs to urinate in order to be sure.
Doctor! The urine's starting to come out!
Doctor!
It's done!
Sorry. It's just I'm so happy.
Ahn Joong Geun! Ahn Joong Geun!
Thanks. Thanks so much.
Ahn Joong Geun Fighting!
Good job!
Why aren't you drinking with them?
- I can't drink very well. - I think you'd drink well.
If I drink, then my heart beats too fast.
- My heart's kind of weak. - Really?
So when I was young, my chest often hurts,
but when my mom asked me if I was alright, I always said that it was ok.
I thought that I had to do it so she wouldn't worry.
Even though I said I was alright, I wished that my Mom understood that I wasn't alright.
Are you ok?
No. I don't think I'm alright.
Thanks. It's really comforting.
I really feel like shit, but the important thing is that Seung Min lived.
What should I expect more that than?
I'm really lucky. Especially the warm hug you gave me.
