[DOCTOR ROMANTIC]
[EPISODE 15] You do it.
May I ask you the reason as to why you trust me this much, sir?
I'm someone who's trying to survive, no matter what
and you're someone who tries to save people, no matter what.
All doctors try their best to save patients, Chairman.
Do you think they'd really do that
if they were receiving billions of won not to?
Do you think they'd still do that then?
Pardon?
So, who's the doctor in charge of him?
Is he talented?
I'm not sure if you remember him
but he once went by the name "Bu Yong Joo"
and worked at Geosan University Hospital.
Bu Yong Joo...
Are you talking about that crazy bastard?
That's correct.
That crazy bastard.
An era of subordination.
A world that deems the worth of someone
not based on his or her skill or character
but instead judges them based on their usefulness.
Answer our questions, Doctor Bu Yong Joo.
Have you ever had your younger colleagues perform surgery in your stead?
I received a report saying that the two patients who died on your operating table
even before Ms. Jang Hyun Joo, died because of that.
Is that true?
You're saying I'm the one who told them to do that?
Did you just say that those surgeries happened because I ordered them to?
Why can't you say anything?
I asked you if I ever asked anyone to perform surgery in my stead!
Be quiet, Doctor Bu Yong Joo! I'll be the one asking the questions!
And the only thing you'll be doing is answering my questions.
A group of elites who operate according to the book.
This world belongs to the people who know how to be accepted by that group.
To think that the results that you've had here at Geosan University Hospital
were all due to the illegal, vile tactics you used...
that makes me quite ashamed as chief administrator of this hospital.
I'm sorry, but please entrust that surgery to someone else.
This person is a presidential candidate.
Make some time this week and schedule a surgery for them.
There are patients who have waited months for me to perform surgery on them.
I'll operate on those on the waiting list first.
In the order that they arrived.
You were audacious, and did as you pleased.
Do you not care about what happens to your morals as a doctor
as long as you have money and glory?
You people were the ones who shoved me onto this pedestal in the first place!
That's because we never knew you were such an immoral and shameless person.
Are these all the patients you had other people operate on in my stead?
Well, you're just so busy and famous.
It couldn't be helped. Most of the people who come here come seeking you out.
Still, how could you deceive patients and say I performed surgery on them?
If you're getting worked up because you think there may be a problem due to this
then don't worry too much.
The hospital will cover all of this up for you.
You bastard!
Who told you to do this? Huh? Who, you bastard?
Huh? Who was it?
As we can no longer ignore these actions of yours...
we'll send an official document to the Association of Doctors and Hospitals
so that you will never again be able to find work as a doctor.
That is our final decision.
Loyalty to a certain faction
becomes something more trustworthy than anything else.
And skilled people who adhere to their convictions
end up becoming used ruthlessly by these factions.
Such is the strange place that this world has now become.
That's fine for today. Take me back to my hotel.
- What about the chairman? - I'll see him tomorrow.
I'm sure he's asleep now, anyway.

[EPISODE 15: ROUGH-AROUND-THE-EDGES SYNDROME]
What a fantastic morning this is!
Oh, is it, now?
That's good for you, then.
Are you... in a bad mood?
You, Doctor Kang Dong Joo, seem to be in a great mood.
I wonder why that is?
Well, it's just a great morning, is all!
Hello! Good morning!
Oh, you're here, Senior?
Yeah. Hi.
Oh man, it's so hot! Why is it so hot in here?
Isn't it hot?
Maybe the day is warming up already?
It is getting a bit hotter, yes. And it's so early.
Um, I have to go to the staff room now.
Oh, and I have some business to take care of in the ER.
Okay, then.
Yes.
- This way. - Yeah. I'll go that way.
Hot?
It's negative 2 degrees Celsius outside! What are they saying?
What...
- The patient has a stomachache, Doctor. - Yes.
The patient's name is Hwang Gi Soo, and he's 45 years old.
He hasn't vomited or had diarrhea.
His stomach just hurts and he feels a bit chilly.
His vitals are 110/80, with 120 bpm.
And his body temperature is 39.5 degrees Celsius.
Just a moment.
You even checked if he had gallstones before?
Yes. I thought it may be that so I asked him
but he said that nothing like that came up during his last physical.
You did a good, detailed check over the patient.
Good job.
So, your stomach hurts a lot, sir?
When did it start hurting?
Stomach pains have come and gone for about a month now
but my stomach hurt a lot yesterday morning.
And then my entire body started getting achy.
I also came down with a fever.
I'll be propping your legs up a bit.
I'll be touching your stomach a bit.
Does it hurt when I press down there?
Yes, yes. It hurts.
What about here, then?
Oh! That hurts the most!
Do you drink alcohol often, by any chance?
Just... about once or twice a week?
Have you ever had stomach pains or an upset stomach before this?
Um, a bit...
I see. I'll be running some tests on you first, then.
I suspect there may be some inflammation
so I'll have to take a CT scan, too.
Oh, Doctor!
Can't you do something so the pain goes away, first?
Sure, of course.
Give him one dose of tramadol via IV, please.
Let's also run a pre-operation blood test with an amylase and lipase test
- and get an abdomen CT taken of him. - Yes, Doctor.
Oh, I'll go to the CT scan room.
Geez, you surprised me!
- So, did you succeed? - Pardon?
I'm talking about the necklace.
Oh... well...
Congratulations, Doctor Kang Dong Joo!
See, what did I say? I told you that she'd bite!
I know this is a bit presumptuous of me to say
but I have a good sense for those types of things.
Oh, I see.
Did you put the necklace on her yourself?
Um... was I supposed to?
Oh me, oh my! To think that you're unaware of something so basic.
What do you mean?
Do you know why men use all their hard-earned money on women's gifts?
It's inherently because of a man's desires!
Men buy women rings so that they can hold her hand.
And they buy women necklaces so they can hold her once.
Like this.
Oh, is that right?
So, did Doctor Yoon have that necklace on today?
Well, I didn't check, but...
Goodness me!
If she didn't wear the necklace, it must be due to one of two things.
She doesn't like the necklace
or she doesn't like the person who gave it to her.
I don't think that's necessarily the case.
Come, now. Don't be so inattentive!
Doctor Kang.
Could you please check on the patient in bed number three?
Yes, sure.
What are you doing, Section Chief Jang?
It's none of your concern.
I felt a bit salty so I'm messing with him just a little.
Oh, you feel salty, do you? Why?
Because I failed, but he succeeded!
Goodbye, then.
Yes, what is it?
Did you wear the necklace I gave you today?
Why are you asking me that all of the sudden?
So you didn't wear it today?
I'm busy right now. I have to go to a meeting.
I just want you to tell me if you wore it or not.
Look here, Doctor Kang Dong Joo.
We're at work right now.
Don't try to mix business with pleasure, all right?
Bye.
Senior!
What is this? Did she really not wear it?
Hello, Chairman! Good morning...
Isn't it?
His daughter?
Yes, the chairman's daughter has just arrived.
You may know her, too.
She was once Team Leader of the Strategy Planning Department at Geosan.
Stop being stubborn and just get discharged already, Father!
What kind of nonsense is that?
You want a sick person who was admitted to the hospital to be discharged now?
If you're going to go to a hospital, go to a proper one.
Go to a hospital that has proper doctors!
Why are you even here?
You should be raising your kids in Florida.
You're such a nuisance.
Who even called you here?
Was it Director Do?
It's a heart transplant surgery, of all things.
How could I just sit still when you're insisting on having such a procedure done
at this crappy excuse for a hospital?
Furthermore, you're the chairman of the foundation, Father.
If something goes wrong while the chairman of the foundation
gets artificial heart transplant surgery at a no-name hospital like this
what do you think will happen to Geosan's reputation?
People will talk about how your sense of judgment is clouding over
and say that you've gone senile.
What did you say? Senile?
If you don't want people to say that about you, come to Seoul with me.
I'll go take care of your discharging paperwork.
Excuse me.
You'll need the doctor in charge of him to sign off on the paperwork
if you want him discharged.
What are you saying?
You'll need his doctor's permission if you want to have him discharged.
I'm a director at the hospital that controls this one.
Regardless of your position, I'm way above you in terms of seniority.
Got that?
Mr. Bu Yong Joo?
What are you doing here?
What else would a doctor be doing at a hospital?
I'm taking care of patients, obviously.
You were already stripped of the right to be a doctor again.
So how dare you walk around, putting on a doctor act with a doctor's coat on?
Legally, I never did anything that was worthy of me losing my medical license.
And as for me being kicked out, that was all a scheme by you people.
So, did you talk the chairman into this so that you could make a comeback?
I knew that he was an old guy with a lot of money
but I had no idea he was the chairman of the hospital foundation.
And to think that he's your father, too. This is turning out to be quite amusing.
I'm going to take Father and go to Geosan right now.
Did the chairman tell you to do that?
I, as his guardian, made this decision.
I don't want to entrust my father to a doctor like you for another second.
A doctor like me?
And what is that, exactly?
What?
You'll have to be more precise
since I have no idea what the hell you mean when you put things like that.
Answer me properly.
Just what is a "doctor like me," exactly?
Look here, Mr. Bu Yong Joo!
Everyone here calls me Teacher Kim.
"Teacher Kim"?
It seems you think you can hide your past by changing your name, but...
I'm not hiding it. It's more to reflect on my past if anything.
It's to reflect on the fact...
that I lived cautiously by the words of you people...
and I lived only caring about the same thing you people did.
It's penance for that fact.
Synced & ripped by bozxphd Subtitles by DramaFever
The chairman's daughter?
Yes. She says that she's way above all of us in terms of authority.
And it seems that she has some bad blood with Teacher Kim, too.
So I was wondering if you knew anything about this, Nurse Oh.
I told you. I only met Teacher Kim after he left Geosan.
Oh, come on. You've known him for so long, though!
Are you sure you haven't heard anything? Nothing at all?
No, nothing. Never.
What are you doing?
Are you dating Doctor Kang, by any chance?
Who... who... who said that?
Is that punk Kang Dong Joo going around telling people that?
No, it was Section Chief Jang's hunch.
He said that you two seemed to be quite close lately.
Is that true?
Um, no.
We're not. Really.
- Oh, I see. - We're really not, Nurse Oh!
Please believe me. You have to believe me.
Oh, all right.
Kang Dong Joo, that little...
- Yeon Hwa. - Yes?
Where's Kang Dong Joo?
He's in the hybrid room.
What do you think this might be?
To me, it looks like the pancreas tail.
Right? It looks like that to you too, right?
I don't think it's the pancreas.
Oh, you don't?
It is an abscess, but it seems to be originating from the bowel.
The bowel, huh? Does it look that way to you, Doctor Do In Bum?
Should I call Teacher Kim?
Hey, Doctor Kang Dong Joo!
Why would you call him when I'm here?
I mean, isn't it better to have more input when the scan is ambiguous?
You know, you've been acting up quite a bit.
You think it's okay to act like that just because Teacher Kim loves you?
He's never shown any real affection for me.
Take a good look if you have eyes, you punk!
How is this the pancreas? It's obviously the bowel!
- But this part is connected here... - Oh ho.
Are you trying to educate the chief of the surgical department?
I'm just telling you what I think.
It may look like the bowel, but if...
That's why we're saying it originated from the bowel, obviously!
How could it be the pancreas tail?
Isn't that right, Doctor Do In Bum?
Yes, it seems that way to me, too.
- Chief. - Doctor.
The patient's BP is falling. It's 80/40 right now.
Please prepare a c-line and a 500 cc full drip.
Mix 30 milliliters of norepinephrine and give him 10 cc of it.
And prepare a Foley too, please.
Forget it! Don't try to do anything. Move over.
Prepare a c-line and give him a 500 cc drip.
And what else was there?
Mix 30 milliliters of norepinephrine, and give him 10 cc of it.
Prepare a Foley too, please.
Doctor Do In Bum will be in charge of this patient.
He's my patient, Chief!
I can't entrust a patient to a doctor who can't even analyze a CT properly.
Get the c-line first and move the patient to the OR.
Yes, sir.
I'll give him an antibiotic while you do the c-line.
Sure.
It seems that Doctor Kang Dong Joo is quite angry.
It does seem that way, right?
- Oh, Doctor Woo Yeon Hwa. - Yes, Doctor?
Have you ever assisted in a surgery before?
Um, yes. I have.
Good. You assist me today, then.
See you in the OR in 10 minutes.
This looks like it's near the pancreas, no matter how I look at it.
Can't you knock, Senior?
What happened with Chief Song? Why did you two fight?
Well, um... we had differing opinions.
But you know, Kang Dong Joo...
did you say something weird to Section Chief Jang, by any chance?
What... do you mean?
Did you say that we were dating, or anything similar to that?
Well... I never said that in those words, per se.
I wonder why Nurse Oh asked me such a thing, then.
What did she ask you?
She asked me if the two of us were dating out of nowhere.
Are you sure you're not the one who made her think that?
I wasn't!
I'm really good at keeping those kinds of things quiet!
Why... didn't you wear the necklace I gave you?
Why do you keep asking me that?
Well, I wanted to know for sure if we officially started dating yesterday.
This is why I can't start anything with you!
What? Are you saying that we haven't even started anything yet, then?
What about what we did yesterday, then?
Did... we do something yesterday?
You mean you don't remember?
Wow, this won't do! Looks like you need a refresher!
See? See? See!
What? What? What did I do?
You keep making it so obvious, so how can I start anything with you?
Making it so obvious? Me?
No way! I have a total poker face!
Haven't you ever heard of a poker face?
"Poker face"? As if. It's written all over your face!
Why don't you just go ahead and tell everyone at Doldam while you're at it?
- Can I do that? - Sheesh!
Promise me something.
What?
You will be nothing but professional to me at the hospital.
I'm Senior Yoon Seo Jung, like I was before
and you're just Doctor Kang Dong Joo.
No personal displays of affection, just like it has been up until now.
We'll just treat each other as we did before, as co-workers.
Let's only do that, okay?
Okay.
If I promise you that, can we start dating starting today?
Well, it depends on your behavior.
What? When are we actually going to become official, then?
It depends on your behavior. Back to work!
I love you.
Do you have a death wish?
See? You need to maintain a poker face!
Everyone at Doldam will find out about us, at this rate!
Don't do that, okay?
What? What? Oh.
- Saying "I love you"? - Ugh, seriously!
You don't want me to say "I love you"?
Stop it.
All right. I won't say "I love you."
- Stop it! - Okay, okay!
I'll never say "I love you" again!
I love you!
I love you.
(IN CHINESE)
Come on! Stop it. Stop it. Stop it.
I love you, I love you! (IN FRENCH AND JAPANESE)
- I love you. - Ugh!
- I love you. - Stop.
What is it that you're after?
Is it to come back to Geosan University Hospital?
Isn't there anything you're curious about regarding the chairman?
It's too bad for you, but Geosan is fully under Do Yoon Wan's control now.
And I'm sure that 99 percent of the directors will vote him in again.
So there's not much for you there, even if you were to go back.
The chairman's condition is worse than we'd thought.
It seems that you're looking to succeed in this transplant surgery no matter what
and to have your life take a dramatic turn, but...
You know how to analyze CT scans at least, don't you?
You graduated from Geosan too, if I'm not mistaken.
Whose CT scan is that?
The chairman's.
As you can see, it's late-stage lung cancer.
Lung cancer?
Yes, according to the CT scans.
So... treatment is impossible, then.
There are many different types of lung cancer, Chairman.
We'll do a biopsy to figure out just what kind of cancer it is first
and then find a way to treat it.
How much time will I have...
if I don't receive treatment?
Three months. That's about it, Chairman.
And that's not factoring in the issue with my heart?
Correct.
So, what do you want to do, here?
There isn't much that a doctor can do.
And there is only so much that I can prescribe for him.
Ms. Yeon Hwa!
Are you going into surgery?
Yes.
For the patient with the abscess?
Yes. Doctor Do In Bum asked me to assist him.
Oh, I see.
Um...
- Why are you here? - Huh?
I came here to be your assistant.
Why? I asked Yeon Hwa to do it.
Well, something came up. So I came in her stead.
That's okay with you, right?
Synced & ripped by bozxphd Subtitles by DramaFever
So how are we going to do the surgery?
It's a peritoneal abscess that seems to have originated from the bowel.
So we're going to do a bowel resection.
Okay.
We'll get started now, then.
Scalpel.
- Doctor. - Yeah?
Um, Doctor Kang Dong Joo wanted me to give this to you.
Please look over patient Hwang Gi Soo's CT scan.
And where is Doctor Kang now?
He's in the OR where Mr. Hwang is being operated on.
It's an abscess from the bowel, and Doctor Do is the head surgeon.
But Doctor Kang thinks that it may have originated from the pancreas tail.
Hwang Gi Soo.
[HWANG GI SOO]
Huh?
- As for it originating in the bowel... - His bowels look fine to me.
I'll check his pancreas.
I'll perform an omentectomy.
Gauze.
Gouge.
Retractor.
It is indeed the pancreas tail.
Oh, did you now, Honey?
I'll call you back later, Madam Oh.
- What is it? - Hey.
I heard that Mr. Hwang is in surgery for a bowel-originated abscess.
Oh, about that. Doctor Do In Bum...
Kang Dong Joo had a different opinion. Why did you ignore him?
Did I? I don't really remember.
I heard that you were there and saw that CT scan with your own eyes!
You saw it, and yet you didn't even have a slight suspicion
that it may have been from the pancreas tail?
I mean, at first, I thought that may have been it.
But Doctor Do In Bum seemed to be so sure that it was from the bowel.
You should've examined the scan carefully if two fellows' opinions were different!
Aren't you supposed to be the damn chief?
Yet, all you did was split the two apart?
Why are you acting like this?
I know how to analyze CT scans, you know!
Do In Bum and I had the same opinion so we made that decision!
Aren't you looking down on me too much?
[DO IN BUM]
Yeah, Doctor Do In Bum? What is it?
After opening him up, it seems that it didn't originate from the bowel.
Really? Where was it from, then, if not the bowel?
The pancreas tail.
Oh, I see.
Well, these things happen.
In surgery, things can be different than what you expected
before opening the patient up.
Don't panic. Going with the flow is all part of a surgeon's skill, too.
So, what should I do now?
Um... have you ever done a distal pancreatectomy before?
Yes, once. And I've assisted multiple times, too.
You've done it before? That's great.
Use this chance to brush up on your skills, then.
And I'll come in anytime if there are any complications, so don't worry.
All right.
They said it was the pancreas.
Oh geez.
Is that true?
Have you really done a distal pancreatectomy before?
Why, do you think I'd lie about that?
You lied last time when we had the Boerhaave syndrome patient.
I'll begin the distal pancreatectomy now.
I'll start with a dissection.
Forceps.
Gouge.
Synced & ripped by bozxphd Subtitles by DramaFever
Could you call Chief Song again?
Sure.
What are you doing? Aren't you picking up?
Oh, it's an unknown number. I'll pick up later.
[DO IN BUM]
What's going on?
Hurry up and tell me what's going on.
Doctor Do In Bum is doing a distal pancreatectomy right now.
But?
You tell him what the problem is.
I wanted to know if you're supposed to take the spleen out too
when doing a distal pancreatectomy.
He said he called to ask you.
Hurry up and tell him.
Yes, of course. You're supposed to take them out together.
What's the matter? Is there a problem?
I can't seem to sever the splenic artery easily.
And it seems that it might implode if I do something incorrectly.
Oh, I see.
Oh my. What to do?
What do you mean, "What to do?" You'll have to crawl into the OR.
Who? Me?
Should I be the one to crawl in there, then?
All right. Just wait, Doctor Do In Bum.
I'll head in there now.
Thank you.
How pathetic.
Have you heard of the "spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy?"
I've heard of it, yes. But I have no experience with it.
If that's the case, consider this an honor.
Take a good look at what I do.
Forceps!
Gouge.
Due to the location of the spleen
it's usually removed during this procedure
but there have been reports of patients' immune systems suffering with the spleen
so when there aren't any large intestine complications...
it's best to just leave the spleen alone.
I heard it's been quite some time since you were last in an OR
but you seem to know your way around.
Of course. I am the chief of the surgical department at Geosan after all.
All right, I'm finishing things up here.
Do this, and then...
when it's split, like this...
Good.
How's that? Nice and clean, right?
Yes.
All right.
What? What is going on?
I believe the artery has been damaged.
Damn it. Gauze!
Clamp!
Can you see where the bleeding is coming from?
I can't get a good look.
Forceps!
Hey, suction. One more!
Irrigation.
Suction!
Hey, that's enough. That's enough!
There. We're good.
Wow, this won't do.
I think we'll have to cut the spleen off, after all.
Sutures, please.
Wait.
What do you mean, wait?
Huh? What are you doing, punk? Move aside!
There's a slight tear at the splenic artery.
I think we'll be able to save the spleen if we just stitch this up.
May I do it?
What are you doing?
This is my surgery. Why are you trying to educate me, huh?
If you're confident that you can do it, then you do it!
I thought you said you'd done it before.
If this goes wrong, it'll all be your fault, Kang Dong Joo.
Will you still do it?
Wow, you're the same as ever, aren't you?
You're here looking for someone to blame as soon as something goes wrong.
Stop saying unnecessary things, bastard!
Are you going to do it or not?
Loupe, please.
Okay.
Number five sutures.
Doctor Kang.
Please give it to me.
Focus.
Cut.
Okay.
Cut.
All right, we'll undo this now.
Irrigation.
There's no bleeding. I think the spleen will be fine.
Shall I finish things up here?
Hey, Do In Bum!
How many more times are you going to lie to get in front of an operating table?
What are you talking about?
You did it today, too. You've never done a distal pancreatectomy before!
So isn't it only normal that you and I switch spots?
That was my surgery. I thought I could handle it.
And I've done tons of simulations with online videos.
Hey, a video simulation and a real surgery aren't the same thing!
That's how I always practice.
How else would I gain experience from all those different cases?
You irresponsible bastard.
A true surgeon needs to know how to gain experience in all kinds of ways!
Nobody knows what'll happen once a patient is cut open, anyway.
So, you're going to continue getting experience by lying?
Stop acting all high and mighty just because you happened to save a spleen.
I hope that you never hold a scalpel in your hand using that sort of method.
If you do that, I'll cut you open myself.
Cowardly bastard.
Hey. Hey!
You little!
Let go, you punk! Let go!
Ow!
Let go!
Bring your dad here, you punk!
- I'll kill you! - Mr. Go!
Let go, damn it!
Let go!
- Let go! - Hey!
Ow, ow, ow. Ow!
- Stop it already. - Ugh!
Let go!
Ugh!
What?
The two of them fought again?
Doctor Dong Joo was pretty cool back there, in the OR.
And thanks to him, Doctor Do In Bum ended up looking a bit pathetic.
Kang Dong Joo was cool? How so, exactly?
He was stitching up an artery, and wow, I thought I was watching Teacher Kim.
The way he did it was so similar to how Teacher Kim does it.
"All right. Concentrate."
"Cut."
So he was acting like Teacher Kim in there?
No, it wasn't just an act. He really did well.
His technique wasn't as refined as Teacher Kim's...
but it was similar.
Wow, and he's always complaining about how Teacher Kim acts all high and mighty.
Well, you know. He may say that, but he's learning.
And people grow fond of each other after hating one another.
So? Where are the two guys who were fighting now?
What is it this time?
Why did you two fight this time?
You're not going to tell me?
He interrupted my surgery and took charge, so I got mad.
I'll be careful so this doesn't happen again.
What about you, Kang Dong Joo? You don't have anything to say?
No, I don't.
All right.
The one who has nothing to say can go ahead and leave.
Synced & ripped by bozxphd Subtitles by DramaFever
I heard you two got into a tussle again.
I heard it was a real spectacle, with fists flying everywhere.
Well, he hit me first. Was I supposed to just take it?
What's with you two?
It would be so nice if you could just get along, since you're the same age.
And both of you have terrible, stubborn personalities
so you don't have any friends as it is.
What are you saying? I have tons of friends. What's with you?
Sure, that's why none of your friends have visited since you started here.
Isn't that right?
Well, that's because they're busy working and such.
And you don't have any friends either, Senior!
What are you talking about? Doctor Uhm, Doctor Jung.
Nurse Park.
And sometimes, I drink beer with Nurse Oh and Doctor Nam Do Il, too.
So they're my friends.
Oh, so the people around you are automatically your friends?
Yep!
Then the trees behind the hospital are your friends
and the birds singing in the trees are your friends too, right?
I'll be going now.
Come on, you can't just go.
Didn't you come because you were worried about me?
Make sure you put some ointment on that wound.
I'll really be going now.
I love you.
I told you not to say that!
Why, you little!
That's enough!
You should get going now, Senior!
At any rate, you two are grown adults! Stop hitting each other already!
I told you, that punk Do In Bum punched me first!
Well, you must've done something to piss him off a lot!
I know him, and he's not the type to just go around punching people!
He's someone who never lets his own hands get dirty!
Are you seriously taking that punk's side right now?
That's enough.
Watch yourself from now on, all right?
This is a hospital, not a Hapkido dojo.
Those two really need to work on their acting.
What is it? Go ahead.
Why do you keep getting mad like this?
Me, sir?
I've never done that.
Kang Dong Joo and I were never on good terms from the start.
And on top of that, he intercepted my surgery.
So I got mad.
So you won't tell me the truth until the end, eh?
Or is it that you don't know how to be honest?
Pardon?
Forget it. Leave.
About Chairman Shin's surgery.
We may not be able to do it.
Chairman Shin has terminal lung cancer.
Go and tell your father that.
What do you mean by that?
That's why you're here, isn't it?
And that's why you asked to join my surgical team, right?
You know...
I prefer jagged rocks over round, insignificant ones.
What I'm saying is
it's better to have your own style and your own thoughts.
That way, when you find yourself struggling with the world
you'll find yourself and your own place in the world
instead of being passive and just floating by in life.
You'll be edgier.
You'll have your own philosophies and your own principles
and find yourself.
I once thought you were a person with an edge about you.
You did that empyema surgery that day when you didn't even need to
and I thought you did that because the patient really needed help
not because you believed that Daddy would have your back if you did.
And your skills weren't too bad, either.
That's why I forcibly kept you here, but...
But?
I think I misjudged you, after all.
Go and report that to your father.
Chairman Shin's surgery is ruined now
so he won't need to try so hard anymore.
And it'd be best for you to leave Doldam now, too.
Terminal lung cancer?
So he's in the last stages of lung cancer, eh?
Yes, Father. That's how it is.
What about the surgery, then?
What's going to happen with the artificial heart transplant surgery?
I think it'll be difficult for them to do it now.
Did Bu Yong Joo say that himself?
Did those words come out of his own lips?
Are you sure he said that?
Yes. He said that to me himself.
All right. Got it.
Um, Father.
What? Go ahead.
I can... come back now, right?
Stay there until the situation becomes more certain.
And quit your whining.
Yes?
I'm here, Director.
I rushed here as soon as I heard the news about Chairman Shin.
You must be quite concerned.
Who told you about that?
There are a couple of people who are my eyes and ears at Doldam.
I see.
I'm a bit hesitant to say this
but in this situation, it would be best
to give up on the artificial heart transplant surgery, wouldn't it?
So, what do you think?
Do you think that I should get the surgery?
Or do you think I should just forego it...
since I'm going to die soon anyway?
To be honest, in a situation such as this
the doctor cannot do anything except respect the choice of the patient.
If I said that I wouldn't get the surgery...
what would happen then?
I was planning to fix your heart up and make a huge name for myself.
So first and foremost, I'd have to give up on that plan.
Why, this punk...
How can you make jokes like that in this sort of situation?
There's no way for me to know
whether your heart or your lungs will be the first to fail, Chairman.
And what if I say that I still want the surgery?
Artificial heart transplant surgery is quite a dangerous procedure.
So either way, I'm doomed.
All right.
Oh, Director Yeo!
Oh! Hello.
Oh, you were here too, Section Chief?
Would you like a cup of coffee as well, Doctor Yoon Seo Jung?
Yes, thank you.
About Doctor Kang Dong Joo.
He may be a bit callous on the outside, but he's quite a considerate man.
Isn't that right, Director Yeo?
Yes, well... he does seem to be like that.
He does have some stern-looking, arched eyebrows, though.
But I'm sure they'll relax a bit once he finds a woman he likes.
Isn't that right, Director Yeo?
Well, I don't know about physiognomy, so...
He is definitely good boyfriend and husband material.
Thank you for the coffee, Section Chief.
I'll get going now, then.
Of course. Goodbye.
She really is bad at managing her facial expressions.
Hey, Kang Dong Joo! It's an emergency!
An emergency?
I think that Section Chief Jang noticed something about us.
- What do you mean? - Oh my goodness.
I think he's having suspicions about us.
He's even saying ridiculous things in front of Director Yeo now.
At this rate, he's going to spread some weird rumors all over the hospital!
So?
Let's get into a fight.
- A fight? - Yeah.
A huge one, too.
Let's go. You and me. And make it look realistic.
Doctor Yoon Seo Jung, how could you give a patient painkillers first?
- Dong Joo, that's because I... - Can't you see the patient's in pain?
- He was in so much pain... - I wasn't even that far away!
I could've run here from my office in two minutes flat.
You should've called me first!
You should've waited to see if he needed surgical intervention!
Um, yeah. I thought that too, but...
Don't you know that nothing besides NSAIDs affect physical exam results?
- I did. I did, but... - From now on!
Call the surgeon before treating abdominal-pain patients!
Do you think this is a traffic control room or something?
All the doctors here are board-certified and can take care of these things!
Are you ER people trying to fight with the surgical department?
Hey! Are you going to be disrespectful toward your senior?
What's with you two?
I'm the one who made the mistake! It was me!
- You didn't do anything wrong, Senior! - You didn't do anything wrong, Senior!
All Kang Dong Joo and Yoon Seo Jung ever do is fight when they meet.
- Right. - It's all fake.
Geez, you surprised me.
Fake? What do you mean?
They're trying to hide the fact that they're dating.
A cover-up, if you will.
- Oh, no way. - You're overthinking it. It's not.
What are you going to do if I'm right about this?
You can drink for free at my restaurant for a month.
With free snacks, too.
Sure, why not.
Why are you two betting when those two are the ones who may be dating?
- Because it's fun. - Because it's fun.
It's Teacher Kim.
Your answer makes no sense!
All right. Everyone, please take a seat.
What's going on, Teacher Kim?
Starting today, we'll put a halt to the surgery conferences.
You're putting a halt to the conferences?
What does this mean, Doctor?
The results of the CT scan came out.
The chairman has terminal lung cancer.
So, he's in the last stages of lung cancer.
Doing an artificial heart transplant in this situation
would be too much on the patient, I believe.
So, what we did up until now...
May we come in for a bit?
It's fine. Sit, all of you.
Are these the staff members who will be doing my surgery?
Yes, Chairman.
Ah, they seem quite trustworthy.
Don't you think so, Manager Joo?
Yes, I do.
I was actually discussing your surgery with these folks just now, Chairman.
Oh, good.
I actually came down here to talk about that.
Look here, Teacher Kim.
Yes?
Let's proceed as we'd originally planned.
Pardon?
Let's do the surgery as we'd originally planned.
But, Chairman...
Since things have come to this
how about we promote you from Director to Chairwoman?
We at Geosan believe we need a chairman who is familiar with our work.
You can call this greed or a pipe dream.
But... I want to live every day of my life without a heavy heart.
I'll die anyway, so you can grant me at least that, right?
Right, Teacher Kim?

[DOCTOR ROMANTIC]
Did Bu Yong Joo say that he'd do the surgery?
Do you think Director Do will just leave Teacher Kim alone?
He could end up putting everyone at Doldam in danger.
I'm going to make two offers to Bu Yong Joo.
What? Replacing the staff?
And all of the people at Geosan University, at that?
- Bu Yong Joo is... - How do you feel about this upheaval?
He'll never allow his staff to be replaced.
If you can't agree to that, you must agree to my other condition.
Is that okay with you?
I'll make him disappear forever from this industry, and from this world.
You're tired, right?
Thank you.
Wow, how pretty. Is that a gift?
Hm?
Oh.
It's nothing.
[SEE YOU NEXT MONDAY AT 10 P.M.]
