Episode 2
Choi Jin Sang!!!! My child! You are so clever! I am so proud of you.
Oh! Stop calling me that, it's embarrassing.
How are we going to celebrate? Shall I buy you chocolate milk?
I need to hurry. I’m going to be late.
Oh! Hello!
Oh! What's happening? Why are you here so early?
Of course I'm early. This is my 1st day doing my round to determine the patients’ medical records.
I admire your great resolution.
Of course. Just sit back & watch. I, Choi Jin Sang, will revolutionize to change the face of this Surgical Department of Song Eui University Hospital.
- Let’s go. -Yes.
- Doctor? - Yes.
This….
Please accept this.
What is that?
It's a gift for you passing the interview.
Didn't I ask you to hurry?
It’s me. I'll be there soon. Just confirm the patient Yang Shi Hwan’s surgery vital check. Hmmm! I'll look at him once I arrive in the hospital. Hmmm!
How are you, Professor?
It is your 1st day in the surgical department. There are many things that you need to prepare for. Do you still have time doing exercises?
No, this is just what I do every day.
Oh! I am sorry. You make me remember the past. I have a friend & colleague, Dr Lee Jung Hwa, who was a lot like you.
At that time, a woman hardly dares to dream of applying to the surgical department. She exercised & studied hard in order not to be defeated by men.
Actually, I had opposed your application coming to the Surgical Department.
Why is that?
I can’t comprehend why a person who already passed her bar exams will want to be a Doctor. Moreover, you character is too strong-willed. I place the importance in my colleagues’ harmonious existence.
The perception that a strong-willed character might disrupt the harmony among colleagues is considered prejudiced.
I'm not that kind of person who doesn’t know how to weigh the difference.
If you say so, then I'm glad to hear that. I'll see you at the rounds.
Congratulations!
What is there to congratulate about?
Welcome everybody to our Surgical Department. I am Jo Yong Han, the Chief Resident. I'll make this short & simple.
I guess you people have heard that my temper is nasty. I only want people who abide by & obey the rules & regulations.
Those who can’t fulfill their duties, I will not allow them to live like human beings.
If you want me to treat you like human beings, you need to be disciplined in following the rules & regulations.
Dr Jung Ha Yun..
Yes, Doctor
Don’t say that you are a colleague. It looks like you’re older than the 2nd year resident intern. For the sake of the Surgical Intern hierarchy, we will treat you as the same. Is there a problem with that?
No!
- Choi Jin Sang! - Yes.
Is it not enough that you have left so many “jin sang” (jinx) in your internship. Don’t you dare show those capabilities of yours here.
You need to be extra cautious. You need to perform well.
Yes.
Tomorrow afternoon, there'll be a basic test from our Surgical Department’s Cal Test. Those who'll fail will have to do the full shift.
- Have you all gotten those records ready? - Yes.
This records have…..
Now look into this matter..
As far as it is…..
The doctors are arriving.
Hello!
Let's start the rounds.
Fine. Shall we start?
Whoever’s candle falls down, will have to step aside immediately and will do the full shift. Start!
As a Surgeon, our hands are the patients’ lives. So the suture stitches play an important part in a Surgeon’s skills. Therefore, this test is to test those abilities.
A Surgeon needs to be fast & precised, skills that are very important. This is in direct relation to the forthcoming success of the surgery.
If the candle falls, the light will be extinguished.
If this is the patient, it means that you aren’t paying full attention & concentrating & that life in your hand will be extinguished.
That brat?
Step aside.
Get up!
Move aside!
Get up!
You too get up!
Leave!
This is the blood vessel. If you are unable to tighten your suture stitches, the candles will fall, which means the vessel will rupture.
But in order not to let the candle fall & you loosen the suture stitches, the vessel will not be able to hold. You need to prepare the stitches in the greatest of speed.
The person who doesn’t do well will be punished for the mistake.
Are you thinking of the past?
You're here.
You sitting in there doing the test, it looks like it was just yesterday. The time flies so quickly.
The more time flies by, in front of you Department Head, I'm still that child to you.
Everybody will slowly age. You're still saying these words.
Ah! This is so tiring hard!
I can hardly breathe.
Don’t say that about the others, even people like Hyun Woo was nervous.
The 1st place in suture stitches should be taken by Jung Ha Yun.
It's already hard as it is. Why does she need to compete with that brat? It's driving me crazy.
Ah! Sheesh.
Grandmother, let me take a look.
Let's start.
- Is the marking done correctly? - What?
It's correct. It is on the right side.
- Put her film up. - Yes.
What's happening here? Shouldn’t it be on the left?
I'm sorry.
If you're not able to determine such as this, how dare you enter the operation theatre. Do you have very little abilities?
If the Chief Resident were to make that mistake, what will the juniors going to learn? Do well the next time.
- Dr Jo Yong Han!!!! - Yes.
If you were to do things this way, I don’t care whether you are the Chief Resident. You'll be forbidden to come in my operating theatre again.
Let’s start all over again.
- It seems that the film was put in the reverse order. - You wretche brat! What are you doing?
They're all here.
Everybody bend over!
Bend over!!!!
Why? Just because you are woman, do you think I will let you off?
No, that’s not it, Doctor. Do you know by any chance that this is considered as an assault?
What?
If there is a person who assaults a person with a weapon that will bring harm & danger to his life, this constitutes as an act of crime.
So then?
In accordance to Assault Ordinance Section 3 Article 2, using a weapon that brings harm to endanger another person’s life constitutes as an assault. The offender will be sentenced to at least a year in prison.
So then?
Also there is another point…Doctor. The government had enforced between management & employee on the labor employment act Article 8, no matter what the reason, they shall not render assault to fellow employees. The labor employment act allows to bring up charges to whoever the offender is.
Therefore, under the Labor Employment Ordnance Act of Section 110, there'll be prison sentence & a fine of 30 million. If the Doctor were to act in such a manner, the hospital will be liable for class action & will be reprimanded for that.
This is my reasoning. A recent case had shown a Professor who assaulted his student interns was suspended for 3 months from duty. A Chief Resident assaulted 1st year interns. The victims were given 2 weeks of psychiatric evaluation & treatment for the trauma in the assault.
The Chief Resident will be suspended for duty for 2 months & may be transferred to another hospital for duty. I just need to inform you of this. I’m finished with my report.
Choi Jin Sang!
Yes.
Bend over!
- What? - I ask you to bend over!!!
If you were to embarrass me again I will not be easy on you next time. That goes for all of you.
Yes!
Take good care of Choi Jin Sang. If Choi Jin Sang makes a mistake, all of you will bear the responsibility of his mistakes. Do you understand?
Yes!!!!
I fear that the 1st year Surgical interns will not do so well because of your work. Do well.
Jin Sang (jinx)! Jin Sang (jinx)!
I am sorry.
Yah! What is the use of saying sorry? The “jin sang” (jinx) thing you do is really something for us who are innocent. Please don’t get us involved & be punished like that.
That's enough. The matter is already spilled milk. Is there a need to start accusing each other on responsibilities? Hang in there!
If you have said something to reprimand me at least my heart will feel slightly comfortable.
Jin Sang?
- What are you doing, aren’t you coming? - Am I not coming?
It must be a shock.
What? Ah! Not at all! If you need any legal advice, feel free to ask.
Can you allow me to just be alone?
Did you hear what the Chief Resident said? Aren’t we supposed to observe & look after you properly so that you'll not do any mishaps?
Come! Drink! Drink! Drink some! Drink! Take this! Drink! Drink up!
Why do you drink milk everyday? I'm a little curious. Are you weak by any chance?.. Ha! Ha!
Joke…it's a joke…However you're slightly a little naughty child.
What is it now?
About Baek Hyun Woo, I think he was really sincere in what he said to you. A person wouldn’t just help someone just like that.
That brat was never like that during medical university days.
Oh! Inferiority complex
What inferiority complex? What's in him I don’t have compared to that brat?
It’s not just in a few points. First, looking at you, he looks better. The person is taller, smarter & more matured. He’s very fine.
If you have your good points, say it out & let’s have a look at it.
Yah! Choi Jin Sang!!!! Now run immediately to ER now.
Why?
- There is a gun shot victim. - Gun shot?
It is an escaped abductor. When the police tried to arrest him, he suffered from a gun shot wound & came to the hospital. Quickly go there immediately!!!!
Why do you need to call me for this?
Quickly, the Chief Resident asked you to go. Quickly, you wretched brat!
Ah! Sheesh!
- Find out & determine how deep that bullet is in the head. - Yes.
- Let him go first & take an x-ray on the double. - Yes.
What is the condition?
We need to do a surgical operation. The bullet is embedded in the abdominal & ended near the renal artery.
Where is Professor Kim Do Hoon?
- Vitals? - The heart beat is above 100, pulse is 70. There's excessive loss of blood.
The operation theatre?
It's still not prepared yet.
- Hurry! You need to inform the Anesthetist. - Yes.
- Doctor, we are the police. - Ah. Yes.
This brat can’t undergo surgery.
Why can’t he undergo surgery?
The child he abducted is in grave danger. He has not yet told us where he kept that child.
But he had lost a lot of blood. His blood pressure is barely stable. If we don’t do the surgery to stop the bleeding, the hemorrhaging may put his life at risk. So first, we must do that surgery
That child is an asthmat patient. If that child has an asthma attack, wouldn’t there be a risk as well? The child has a history of claustrophobic symptoms that will lead to an asthma attack.
It has been 5 hours since the last contact. Her breathing will become more difficult. We still have not determined the identity of the abductor.
Doctor, can we ask some more of your time?
Professor. It looks like Professor Han Gi Tae is doing an emergency operation, the operation theatre needs to be rescheduled & sanitized again.
Professor, the x-ray film is out.
- If we want to stop the bleeding, it wouldn’t be so easy. - Hmm.
The bullet may have penetrated the renal artery down to superior mesenteric artery.
I will find the operating theatre. Once you receive the notification, please immediately send the patient to the theatre.
I have an emergency surgery to perform, can you be able to give way?
No, we can’t. I'm sorry.
Department Head?
I heard you're doing an emergency surgery on the gun shot wound victim?
However, Professor Ha Gi Tae had to do another emergency surgery as well. He had already entered the theatre.
Eh!
I'm very sorry. Department Head, could you be able to give way for the use of your theatre?
Ah!
This has been scheduled for today for a month.
Yes, but I really don’t know what how to find a way to ask for your understanding.
I understand. I will take off my gown.
Thank you very much.
What do we do if there isn’t any operating theatre available?
The matter at hand is there isn’t enough time to waste. The abductor is still not yet identified. If this continues, the child would have died by now.
My child!…My child!
This is the last chance. If you confess I will deal with this matter with leniency.
If we prolong any further for him to undergo surgery, his life will be at greater risk.
I beg you please save my child Seo Young. Where is my child Seo Young? Please let us know? Yes? Where is our child?
Please tell us...Please tell us...
- Where is our Seo Young?...Seo Young - This mother please..
My child Seo Young!….my child Seo Young!…Seo Young…
What is that?
It's pain killer injection. I want to relieve some of the pain the patient is suffering.
Let me do it. You go ahead & do the others.
What?
Give it to me.
Is it painful?
You, doing this, may have your reasons….I have seen many of that kind of people….but in the end it always ends with regrets. Now it is still not too late.
Do you know how frightened that child is? She, any time, will suffer an asthma attack. She is now fighting for her life.
What have the child done wrong? Tell me! Where is the child? Yes!
Quickly give me that medicine.
Just mind your own business & do what you are supposed to do?
Do you think I will give this to a scumbag like you after suffering to become a Doctor? Tell me.
If you don’t reveal & say it, I will not give even a single drop of pain killer to you. Tell it to me….scumbag. Tell me!!!! Tell!!!! Tell!!!! Where is she?
- What are you doing? Give this to me. - Unless he says it out, I will not give the injection.
Are you crazy? Give this back to me.
What do you think you’re actually doing?
I want him to confess.
That is for the police to do. Do you think that just because you have passed your bar exams that you have the right to do this?
The child is going to die.
Isn’t the patient suffering in pain? What do you plan to do if you don’t give the pain killer?
That brat is an abductor. Do you need to take care of that kind of brat. He doesn’t deserve this.
Dr Jung Ha Yun! We are all worried just the same as you do for that child, but to use the pain killer & threaten the patient who is suffering in pain…
It doesn’t matter if he is the abductor or a mass murderer, as for us, they are considered our patients. We need to be considerate about the patient’s suffering.
Professor, his vitals & BP are dropping
Quickly wheel him to the operating theatre…PUSH!!!!!
- Professor….Professor….please give me 10 more minutes. - There is no time to give.
- This situation is really critical. Please give me a few more minutes. - We can't prolong any longer, the patient is in danger.
Professor, I'd like to assist in the operation.
No need. I don’t want you to be concerned about this patient.
Is there time for all this?
Hang it there & concentrate. You need to do this well…Scissors
Get out!!!
Please let me help.
Didn’t you hear what the Professor said? There's no need for you.
Get out!!!!!
Can you pass this to the police?
- Choi Jin Sang, what are you doing? - Yes.
Did you get the patient’s details?
We still don’t know yet.
We haven’t determined the patient’s details nor identity yet, not even a name. How can we conduct this surgery?
We will begin…towel
Yi Sang Na, administer the anesthetics.
- Suction! - Yes.
- Stay concentrated. - Yes.
- Hold it tightly! - Yes.
The patient’s BP is dropping!
Ooze is hemorrhaging.
- It is beside the vein. Remove all the smaller intestines out. - Yes.
- Pull the small intestines out then feel the bullet. - Yes!
Quickly! Hold tight!…
Suction!
Oh! Lawyer Kwon!
How is the situation?
It is a gun shot to the renal artery. It doesn’t look promising.
If the patient dies at the table, it will be a headache.
It is an emergency conducted operation, it should be fine. If he dies outside the operating theatre, we may face bigger problems.
Hold it tightly!…Atraumatic Artery Clamp
Intestinal forceps.
Cut!
Scissors.
Mosquito forceps!…Tied!….Cut!…
Scissors.
How are the vitals?
The BP is slightly raised.
- We still need to find that bullet. Everybody please concentrate. - Yes.
The bullet had moved.
Then…
There is no bullet.
Bring the portable x-ray machine over quickly!
- Pack this up & use the fastest suture to stitch him up. - Yes.
Yes.
Wait!…Move this away…
- Give me a retractor! - Hold it still.
This person had undergone an artificial mechanical heart valve surgery before. This is the reason why the bleeding wouldn’t stop.
Yes it is. His history shows a Triple A (heart bypass). He needs to take anticoagulation drug since his blood wouldn’t coagulate.
- It's a good reference study but sadly we don’t have the time. Choi Jin Sang! - Yes.
- Do a research study on artificial mechanical heart valves, send me that report. - Eh!...Yes.
Oh! I heard that the operating theatre was scheduled for you. You had an emergency.
Did you have an emergency?
If you think so then I thank you. Did the Abductor expire?
No he didn’t. He needs to say where the victim is but he is in no condition to do so now.
- Which Chinese restaurant is this from? It's not Buk Kyung restaurant , is it? - Yes.
You can’t even order a jajamyun correctly.
How is the condition of the abductor?
The biggest problem until now is we can’t find his identity. We need the abductor to tell where the child is. But the abductor had not regain consciousness.
Can we find out from his finger prints?
If he has past criminal records, it will be fine. But he is a person with no prior conviction. If we were to take his finger print it may take at least a week.
How about the hand phone? Nowadays the hand phone has the GPS system.
Hey you dummy! Do you think the offender will buy such phone? Who will use his own identity to buy & register these phones?
Ah! Then, my mother knows a well-known Shaman. Should I call her?
What are you trying to say?
I'm just anxious. I'm just trying to help.
That abducted child, isn’t she an asthma patient? There is a chance that the abductor may have bought some asthma medication at the pharmacy.
So then what?
If we can find the pharmacy, we should know the aductor’s identity from the pharmacy log book.
You are such a moron! What else can you do? It is easier to find Mr. Kim from the Namdaemun street, you brat!!!!
You eat this up yourself.
Are you alright?
Yes. Do you know that an abductor came to the ER today?
I've heard of it. He is currently in ICU.
Yes, he abducted a child who is an asthma patient. If we don’t find the child soon, she will be in danger from an asthma attack.
Do you have any clues in finding the child?
Wait a moment.
Professor..
I'm sorry about the incident this morning. I just want him to tell me quickly the location of that child.
We don’t play a fool with a person’s life.
I wasn’t playing a fool. It’s for the sake that abducted child’s life.
If you continue to act in this manner, then you are disregarding the basic fundamental rule of the medical profession.
I place importance of a person’s life above rules & regulation.
Then what about the life of that abductor? Who are you to play judge & jury on the importance of someone else’s life? Is it for you Dr Jung Ha Yun?
Then what about the life of that abductor. Who are you to play judge & jury on the importance of someone else’s life? Is it for you Dr Jung Ha Yun?
Is the 1st year surgical intern so free to be loitering around like that? Is it hard?
It's just….
Where is that zesty spirit of yours who wants to tear down the Doctor’s mask and yet so disheartened so fast?
It's not that. I am slightly confused now.
What is it about?
One of our teaching Staff Professor is Professor Kim Do Hoon. Each time we handle a case together, between the 2 of us, there is one who has the problem. Each time, it is I who see it wrong, my heart feels heavy.
If you put it this way, it’s like saying that the Professor had said it correctly. It should be a good example to learn from that Teacher. What is there to be confused about? Are you sure that you are not falling for him?
What? Aigoo! Senior! The Doctors are my mortal enemies. It will most certainly never happen.
Yes.
What is the matter?
Why aren’t you going home?
I want to have drink but there is no one to go with, so I am reading the medical journals.
Make me a cup of tea?
Yes.
Thank you.
How’s the condition of the patient?
Is that troublesome?
Did I make the correct decision? I should have followed the police’s advice, to delay the operation for them to question the patient for the whereabouts of the child.
Anymore further delays that patient would have died?
Yes.
Someone said that you will be here.
What is the matter?
That patient at ICU, can we remove the respirator for a moment?
If we remove the respirator, this will constitute as murder.
I'm not saying totally, just for a moment. Can it be done?
What you are saying? I will give consideration & understanding of your lack of knowledge in the medical sciences. But this doesn’t make sense at all.
Are you sedating him on purpose? The Doctor outside said it is not to let the patient suffer that you are doing so. He is comfortable lying in bed but that abducted child is on the brink of death.
I don’t have any other alternatives.
When the child dies, will you say you don’t have any other alternative?
What are you trying to say here?
The Professor’s attitude & intervention had given us the biggest hindrance in conducting our investigation, do you know that?
I will repeat myself once again, my stand point is there is still no other choice.
When will he regain consciousness?
I think it will be hard.
Yah! Compared to your style, this is better. Will this be better?
I do think my suture ties type is tighter in tension. I will follow according to my style.
That abducted child is on the brink of death, yet you are here bickering on suture ties styles.
This brat during the operation, we discovered that he had undergone artificial mechanical heart valves operation before. The Professor wants me to write a research study on that. I'm going crazy on this.
Triple A?
Wait! Do you remember the type of suture ties that the patient had on his valves. Can you draw it out?
Yes! It's special & I observed it very carefully.
It is the same with your type of tying & my tying is different in styles. Each Doctor should have their own distinctive style type of tying their suture.
If you can draw the suture out then we can identify the suture, then we will able to know which Surgeon operated on him, hence his identity.
Ah! I really could remember…..why can’t I draw it out?
What are you doing?
What is wrong now?
Please don’t apply pressure on me on the side, I can’t concentrate.
How can I concentrate with you doing that?…Really! Stop doing that, it's distracting, don’t you have any other things to do?
Ah!…Okay!….
Is that it?
Yes, the final knot is longer than the rest.
Are you certain?
Ah! I have a good memory.
- Finally the ending knot is special. - Hmmm! What should we do now?
First we will send emails to all the Seoul General Hospitals surgical departments & figure out whom this type of tying belongs to.
Do you think they will read their emails & reply?
We can email then follow it up with calls.
What if calling doesn’t work?
Then we go directly & visit them personally.
Come, let's divide the workload.
I have just sent you an email. I beg you to determine & confirm this for us. Yes. Does your hospital have a Surgeon who has this type of suture techniques?
Please help me to confirm this. This is important for that abducted child who is in danger. Yes….please do…yes.
- Do you have any confirmation? - Yes, they are both hospitals who replied.
- How about you? - Just one.
I have one who hasn’t confirmed yet.
Those who haven’t replied, I'll visit those directly to confirm with them.
Ah. Today is my day off. What are we doing?
There is someone’s life at stake. Hurry & drive on.
Are we a joke?
What?
The matter of going & finding the type of suture & matching it with the Surgeon who did it. It's easier finding a needle in a haystack.
If it needs to be done, I will look at the haystack for it.
- Jin Sang! Choi Jin Sang! That brat! Did anyone see Choi Jin Sang? - No.
- Where is Jin Sang? - I don’t know.
Ah! Did that brat create another calamity?
Choi Jin Sang! Where did Choi Jin Sang go?
Ah! Jin Sang, he is at the ICU?
- Yah! Don’t you dare cover up for him. If you wish to cover up for him do your homework properly & pick the correct alibi? - What?
I just came from ICU. He must definitely be sleeping somewhere. This wretched brat, just wait & see.
The Senior Doctors have arrived.
Hello!
Fine, let us start.
Make way! Excuse me!
Department Head.
What is it that happened?
I have found it. I got the identity of the abductor.
Really!
The Surgeon who did his operation previously using that type of suture tying knot had confirmed & identified the abductor.
The abducted child may be in grave danger. Please allow me to go to the police to find that child.
Jin Sang! That child is an asthma patient. Why should you follow? It should be a medical physician & not you.
Go ahead.
Yes.
Dr Jung Ha Yun, the patient that Dr Choi Jin Sang is in charge in ICU, you take over & keep an eye on him.
I will not take over. Please get another person to do so.
Take over! In front of the patient, there is only one thing the Doctors must think. That person is not an abductor but a patient.
Go find & search the child quickly!
Found her….We have found her. Please follow me, quickly!!!
Quickly & Hurry!!!
Oh! Seo Young! Are you alright?
Move aside, let me see her.
She's still alive.
She's in a bad shape. We should quickly send her to the hospital to stabilize her and administer auto mechanic respirator & IV line of adrenergic agonists.
Surgical Dept Jung Ha Yun, please come to ICU immediately, this is a code blue…..
Surgical Dept Jung Ha Yun, please come to ICU immediately, this is a code blue...
I will repeat again Surgical Dept Jung Ha Yun, please come to ICU immediately, this is a code blue.
Cyanosis is detected as oxygen saturation had dropped below 85%. Prepare for Intubation at the ER.
Stop the car!!!
This is respiratory arrest.
I will handle the ambu bag. You come to do the cardiac compression massage.
Over here, it's an arrest!!!
Compression!
Ephine 1mm!
- Get the defibrillator ventilator. - Yes, I will pepare.
30! Seo Young!!!

You can do it….Seo Young, really….please come back…please don’t…don’t…come back..
Jin Sang, please stop… Jin Sang please stop…
No…no… I will bring her back & save her!!!! 30! Seo Young.
Jung Ha Yun: 28….29…30…Get up! Get up! Get up!….Get up….get up!
That is enough!!!
Give me a moment, please. I can do this.
- Jung Ha Yun, that's enough, you can stop now. - I can save him.
We can do this….please…please…just come back….just a little more….little more…
14…15….16…17….18…19…21…22…23
- 27…28…29…30! - 30!
