I was suspected by my trusted colleagues that I did something irregular to gain recognition.
As a medical practitioner and as a learner, I feel that I have failed.
Even if I continue to hold my scalpel & enter research development, I feel that there will be no significant value to this at all.
Now at this moment…I...with all my research & surgical scalpel, have come to an end.
Episode 15
Are you sure with your decision?
Please reconsider this.
How about resting for 2 months?
This is my final decision.
How about the projects that Professor Han Gi Tae are currently doing?
This may attract unnecessary misunderstanding & friction from outside.
It’s no longer my concern.
Professor Han...
Let's talk for a while.
Why did you suddenly decide on this?
If you give up, what about your patients?
Patient Kim Se Jung is still waiting for you.
Compared to me, he might like you better.
Gi Tae…
Do you know why I made so much effort?
It’s because of you.
Since I came to the University, I was envious of you.
You’re not a scholar yet you participate in the interns social events.
Your colleagues take good care of you like you are one of them.
Even though I gained recognition but still compared to you I’m very inferior.
It’s because of my recognition that the Seniors & Juniors have great trust & reliance on me.
I give an impression to people that I'm a very cold person.
You...everyone likes you.
I need to rectify this therefore I will try my best effort to do that.
I really feel that I am pitiful.
That is only your point of view.
In front of you, I also feel inferior. Your ability…your research success…
In the end what did these things give me?
You have seen this for yourself.
I couldn’t get everyone’s trust & reliance.
It's really useless.
I want to rest for a while.
Thinking for the past 20 years, I haven’t taken a well deserved rest.
Please take care of the patient Kim Se Jung.
Gi Tae…
Don’t feel burdened because of my decision.
This decision doesn’t concern anybody.
I like you because we share the same beliefs.
I also think that you may become exactly like me one day. Do well.
I will call you in a couple of days for a drink.
Did he by chance been scouted by other more reputable hospital?
Is this a time to be making jokes about it?
I can’t understand his decision to leave the hospital just like that over such small matter.
This is because this incident was a big blow to him.
Moreover, working in a University Hospital have its headache.
This is why it needs to revamp it regulations.
Isn’t Jin Sang the happiest person now?
What?
Since Professor Han won’t be around, you should feel more relaxed.
Correct.
You should be laughing to yourself.
What you do think I am?
We should be honest about it.
How can Professor Han leave just like that?
We thought he could be the at least become the Research Director.
Drink slowly.
If you get drunk, we wouldn’t bother with you.
This is tragic…tragic.
What is?
To become a Doctor…you don’t work right away…but you need to learn much more.
Your brain is so lacking so why did you even think of becoming one?
With so many professions out there, why do people perceive that this occupation is so ideal & perfect?
A lot of people think that Doctors are sitting on pedestals that need to excel on certain criteria such as attitude, ability, kindness & sympathy.
If at least one is missing from it they think you are not qualified to be a Doctor.
Wouldn’t it because Doctors are entwined in people’s lives?
That’s why we need to be ideal & perfect.
Are Doctors gods?
Doctors are human. How can we be all perfect?
Stop drinking.
Let me drink. I want to drink.
Where you going?
Toilet.
Are you alright?
Hey!
Over here!
Call the hospital for an ambulance immediately. Come here quickly.
What’s going on?
Patient…patient.
Carry her out of here first.
She collapsed suddenly in the toilet. Wouldn’t that be some kind of hypertension?
It looks like when she collapsed she must have hurt her waist.
There is a strong sign of Anemia.
Quickly raise her legs for elevation, then loosen her belt.
Miss, please wake up…
Miss…wake up.
Where is she?
Over here!
What is the status?
The victim collapsed in the toilet & found to be anemic.
BP is 90/60.
Hurry! Get her in.
Prepare for blood transfusion then get a CBC count.
When she collapsed, it's possible she knocked herself on her waist.
She did? Prepare for CT at once.
Yes.
The result of the medical examination is not yet out.
Because she is unconscious, it can be serious.
What is the result of the CT?
We need to go through it with for Professor Kim Do Hoon before we know the results.
The early assessment is we suspect that she may have injured her spleen, so it’s possible there’s internal bleeding.
If there is such injury, she has to go for an emergency operation.
However, there might be a problem with that.
What problem?
The patient went for hepatic artery surgery. Because of the bleeding it might affect the surgery.
The patient’s BP is dropping fast.
Do a blood transfusion & give a dose of Dobutamine.
Yes.
Should we call Professor Park or else someone else?
Professor Park & Professor Noh are in Jeju attending a Seminar.
Isn't there another Professor available?
Professor Jeong Do Young is in the middle of a surgery.
This is Oh Young Bum from the Surgical Dept. Is the Head of Dept in the theatre?
The patient has spleen injury?
Yes, they went to Kim Do Hoon but he’s still operating at the theatre.
Then I shall do it.
Are you going to be fine with that?
You just completed a surgery then you're going to do another one. It will be taxing for you.
Then what do we do? There’s no other alternative.
I heard that if we transfer the patient to another hospital, it might be too late for her.
You do the necessary preparation for the surgery.
Yes.
Suture…
Pay attention!
Yes, I’m sorry.
Suction…
Kelly…
Suture…
Dept Head, are you alright?
Let’s change position.
Yes…yes.
Enter deep to the spleen, outer depth.
Yes.
Forceps…
Gauze…
Find & hold onto the part of the spleen artery.
Yes.
Clamp...
Is this correct?
Dept Head...
Saline wash…
Professor!
What’s the matter?
The Dept Head forced himself to do a surgery because the Surgeon in charge is not yet ready.
The Dept Head is lapsing in & out of concentration. It looks like he’s having difficulty.
What?!
Go & ask when Professor Kim Do Hoon will be finished with his surgery.
Yes.
Change gown.
We have done the blunt in the spleen artery.
Let me finish completing the dissection then.
Fine. Carry on.
It looks like I need to let go of my scalpel.
It’s been 30 years already.
It has been long enough.
When I do consecutive surgeries, my hands will tremble & my concentration will be lapsing too.
It is a normal occurrence so please don’t worry.
I’ve always believed in my own ability. I never realized that this surgery will take so much effort from me.
What’s wrong?
Aren’t you feeling well?
I think I’m having a flu.
You should get some rest at once.
I’m fine.
It’s possible that it’s infection from the hospital.
Quickly get a check up with the type B & C on your liver.
It’s just flu. Do you need to go to that extreme?
Flu like symptoms can lead to many ailments.
Some serious illness starts with the symptoms of the flu.
Has the Dept Head called?
Yes, he called.
The Dept Head says that he wouldn’t be able to make the rounds today.
Why? What’s the matter?
It looks his health is not too well.
Where is he not well?
That he didn’t say.
How many patients does the Dept Head have?
35 patients. There is one patient who is going to undergo gallbladder stones surgery.
I will take the patients with gallbladder & stomach surgery. The rest are yours.
Fine.
Let’s go.
This patient today is going to undergo gallbladder surgery. 56 years old Lee Kyung Tae.
The Dept Head is not feeling well so I will be doing the diagnostics rounds for today.
Do doctors also get sick?
Of course. Doctors get sick too.
If the Doctors get sick, how is he going to treat the patient?
Is it serious?
He’ll be fine after some rest.
The CT result is out. Your gallbladder stones are not too large, so please don’t worry.
I will tell the Dept Head to reschedule your surgery to another date.
Yes.
Let’s go.
Yes, Dept Head…Fine…I will be there at once.
Wait for me at the station.
Yes.
Go & find a bed for me.
What?
Come to think of it, I can’t remember if I ever had a full medical check up in my life.
Although in the hospital, I have done an abdominal CT scan on myself.
But at that time I pretended to be sick.
That’s a good suggestion. I will arrange it with the administrator of admission.
Fine. But don’t make a scene out of this.
Yes.
Then, you want our Dept to be responsible?
I have considered allowing the Medical Dept to take over but after some thought, it is best if we take over the responsibility.
Yes.
Everybody must treat him as though you are giving the VIP service treatment.
Make him feel comfortable and just do your best effort. Understand?
Yes.
In the 1st year interns, we will select the Doctor in charge.
Who is willing to do it?
I’ll give it a try.
I don’t trust you.
Anyone else?
Let me do it.
Then prepare for the medical check up examination.
Please look after him well.
Yes.
He is admitted to the hospital?
When he was in surgery, his hands trembled & lapsed in & out of concentration.
If he collapsed with his size, it would have been a disaster.
So he decided to do a full general medical examination.
I also feel strange lately.
I don’t have an appetite & I have pain at the abdomen. I’m also losing weight.
Look at my eyes, can you see a tint of yellow?
Our Dept Head, what illness does he have?
He has such large frame. Maybe it has to do with his BP or his arteries.
These past few days, being in the field (operating theatre), I almost blacked out and nearly fell over at the operating theatre.
What artery can it be then?
Heart artery or brain artery?
When someone said it was just flu, you asked her to do a liver function test to be safe & got anxious for type B & C.
When I tell you about my symptoms you think that a dog is just barking on the side.
Move aside!
What’s wrong with him?
Dept Head…
Hmm…
I have to go with you for your examination.
You must be busy.
I will go there myself. You just carry on with what you need to do.
Dept Head, it is a privilege & honor to have you as my patient.
This is precious opportunity that has been given to me.
So please don’t take away my chance.
Hello! I’m Surgical Dept 1st year intern Jung Ha Yun.
This is Jeong Do Young. Please lead the way to our Dept Head.
Yes.
We will do him at once.
No need to be so obvious in jumping queues.
However Dept Head….
I’m in no hurry. We will wait for our turn.
Next patient please…
If you have something else to do just carry on.
There is none.
Then just sit down.
Yes.
How are you doing? You seem to have adjusted to the environment.
I’m doing my best in learning.
Fine. In the beginning I have my doubts on you.
I understand.
It’s because you are totally different from all the interns that I have ever come across with.
It's because of your traumatic experience that you had suffered that made you sensitive.
The aim of being a Doctor is to save lives but yours comes from a totally different perspective.
It’s great that you have now adjusted well.
I will not force you to have a full understanding of being a Doctor.
But I hope with that sense of justice of yours,
you can go through this experience to find solace in your pain & find yourself a sense of balance.
I will keep that in mind.
Sitting here wearing the patient uniform, I feel a little weird.
Yes.
Do you know the most important feeling a Doctor must have in treating his patient?
It’s compassion.
Look at me now. Modesty aside, I’ve been called as the high flying hand of god of the University Hospital.
Now wearing this patient uniform, I look like a very poor & neglected old man.
All patients are the same. They trust and believe what the Doctors say.
Every action that a Doctor does comes with balancing someone’s life. It’s the Doctors’ destiny.
If you have the compassion for your patients, there is hope that you’ll be able save that patient’s life.
If that doesn’t exist in you, you can be a skilled surgical technician but you don’t have the vocation to call yourself a medical practitioner.
Mr. Jeong Do Young…
Let’s go.
Dept Head, try not to cough. Just tolerate it in a little while.
I ask you all to come here because I have an important announcement to make.
Effective this afternoon, Dept Head Jeong Do Young has vacated his position.
With his current health now, continuing to hold to this designation is really a big responsibility for him to undertake.
Now is the time to take this up and help him with the responsibility.
We need someone to take up the designation. Who should it be among us?
How about Professor Noh?
I have to decline.
This designation needs someone younger & has more zest.
It will be useful in running this office.
How about Professor Park then?
Professor Han is no longer here.
Recently, the Surgical Dept’s atmosphere has been low in morale.
Why don’t you come & fine tune that Dept?
I’ve just entered this hospital and my stay has just been short.
There are many things that I need to be familiarized with.
Compared to administration, I prefer looking after the patients.
I’m sorry.
How about Professor Kim?
No, I can’t.
Really...
Do I need to come down from my Asst Director of the Hospital position to return to this?
I heard the Dept Head has vacated his position.
What?
Then who is the next Dept Head will be?
It’s still not known. It looks nobody wants the position.
There wouldn’t be anyone who will pounce on this opportunity.
Why?
It’s a really a tiring position to take. Who would want to do that?
I heard the Dept Head doesn’t have special benefits that come with the position.
You just work hard with your heart without added remuneration.
How can that be?
It should be like other high rank positions that have more benefits.
It’s just perceived as a high position.
Being a Dept Head of a general hospital is nothing spectacular.
There are not many perks but there are a lot of complaints. Then you have to manage & run the whole dept.
In the drama series, everybody wants to fight for that position like cats & dogs.
In reality, it doesn’t happen like in the dramas.
Those dramas don’t show the reality of running a hospital. There’s no way that will happen in real life.
In Japan, it is the same as our University Hospital.
In our hospital, we look after the patients and don’t go lobby for position & authority. This will definitely not happen in our hospital.
It will be great if Professor Kim Do Hoon takes up the position.
I heard the Dept Head position is vacant?
It's because of the result of the medical examination.
It must be about time to rest & retire.
I heard that the Asst Director offered you the position.
What?
What is your decision on that?
I’m not taking it.
If I really wanted that position, I would have gotten it a long time ago.
I want to spend more time looking after my patients.
How Professor Park thinks is admirable. It's just...
What is Nurse Ma’s opinion on this?
It doesn’t concern me.
But when I introduce you to my parents… it’s just…
Honestly speaking, I think you have the ability to lead the Dept. There’s no one better than you.
Enough!
If Nurse Ma really wants me to, I will give this a try.
Really?
Nurse Seo, don't you need a rest?
I can still go on.
Are you alright?
If you persist you might collapse soon.
Your face is now the size of my fist. It’s getting too thin.
I’m really fine.
Really…
Is the Dept Head’s result out yet?
Yes, it just came in.
Over here.
How do you feel?
I’m bored to death.
Now I understand why the patients are so happy to see us when we do our rounds.
How are the results? The results are already out.
Yes…that…
Don’t beat around the bush. Quickly tell me.
You know that you have diabetes.
I’ve been taking medication for that.
I don’t meals on time & lack physical exercise.
What is the matter?
It’s because of the diabetes that the symptoms were not realized.
We had discovered in the CT a blocked left coronary artery.
We will have to do a stent surgery to elevate the blockage of the stenosis.
If it’s serious, we need to perform an open heart.
In the urine test we found protein deposit.
I have asked the Liver Dept to look into the matter.
They will run further test.
It’s because of his diabetes that aggravated the condition of his heart & liver.
We’re lucky that we have discovered this earlier or else he could have suffered a massive heart attack.
There was one time when he was in the operating theatre he almost collapsed.
Yes.
If we don’t handle this matter, it may have dire consequences.
What’s happening here?
As a Doctor how he cannot look after his own health?
There is no time to look after our health even when there’s compulsory examination.
Everybody is so busy with work that they usually delay the medical examinations.
This has resulted in a serious matter.
If only the hospital has strictly imposed this. This is the fault of management.
Use this opportunity to have the compulsory medical examination to all the staff of this Hospital.
Yes.
What do we do with the Dept Head?
Generally, his health is not so good.
Of course, he’s been living in this hospital for the past 30 years.
No regular meals on time, doesn’t even have time to go to the toilet on time.
He also lacks physical exercise.
During operation, how many hours do we need to stand?
I also have constipation.
That is not considered a disease.
The last time I had a back ache.
Now that I’m wearing health insoles in this trainers, it has gotten a lot better.
It all started because of Dept Head’s health. The hospital staff needs to undergo the examination as well as the Doctors & Nurses.
Really?
Although it is compulsory, we can’t find the time to do the medical examination.
The Hospital is now arranging the examination so I’m sure they will have a schedule for that and it won’t be a problem.
That’s great. I also want to be examined.
Dr. Jung, are you worried about the last time you had the pulmonary infection?
Go through this examination to see if there is any side effect.
If there should be a problem, what are you going to do?
First, I’ll get worried. Hopefully there wouldn't be any problem.
If there is, then there’s no choice but for me to be in charge.
In this world, what I hate most is fasting.
When did we ever eat our meals on time?
Not eating on purpose & deciding not to eat are two different matters.
That's correct.
This is the last meal, must savor this.
Our body will dispose of it to somehow.
What is the sin of our stomach?
After the jajamyun, I feel that I can sleep.
What do you think will get discovered after our medical examination?
A person who can eat & sleep well never knows what disease he has contracted.
Our internal organ can’t be classified as organ at all.
Our body age can be compared to that of a 50 year old person.
What’s wrong with you?
Nothing.
What’s the matter?
Go on eating.
Jin Sang! What’s the matter?
Hyung, didn’t I say that I wasn’t feeling well lately?
If it’s just that, I don’t think it’s something to be worried about.
No, it’s really a discomfort & feels abnormal.
My abdomen is in constant pain.
Look at my eyes. My eyes are already showing some yellowish tint.
There is yellowish tint.
Do you easily get fatigued?
Yes.
The last time you looked after a hepatitis patient, did you get pricked by a needle?
Have you checked it for infection?
I’ve been tested but there isn’t anything abnormal.
After that did you redo the test?
Because I was too busy, I didn’t do it.
After the first test, you wait for a certain period and redo the test again to be sure. It could be hepatitis.
Hepatitis?
Go & get a blood test.
If you do a blood test, do a protein test as well.
Why do a protein test?
That is suppose to be a marker for cancer.
This for the what if.
I’m honestly feeling really frightened right now.
What if by chance I have cancer? What am I suppose to do?
Could this be…liver cancer?
Really?!
What’s the matter?
You’ve been acting strange recently.
Why? Are you not feeling well?
No. I’m just a little tired.
What’s wrong with you?
I heard that you are not feeling well somewhere.
What’s going on?
Let me look at you.
It looks like it’s true.
You are really stupid!
Why are you still standing here?
Go & have this check out quickly.
Come with me.
No need.
Come with me!
Eun Ji!
What if this is true? What am I going to do?
Stop this nonsense.
Is it that easy to get liver cancer?
What? What is it?
It’s nothing.
What is it? Tell me.
It’s nothing.
Should we do a more thorough examination then?
We need to run test on urine & stool.
Yes.
What is it actually?
We need to do some further test.
What did they say?
They still don’t know what it is yet.
What do you mean you don’t know.
Did you do an ultrascan just now?
An abdomen ultrascan usually indicates roughly what ailments you have.
Eun Ji refuses to tell or explain to me what it is.
Didn’t explain?
I feel that something’s amiss.
Hyung! What am I suppose to do now?
What is it then?
Quickly say it!
What is it actually? Is it liver cancer?
What…what is this?
Wouldn’t this be anti cancer drugs?
Look at it.
What is it?
What is this?
This is the 1st time I’ve seen this variety of anti cancer drugs.
It is a drench drug.
Drench?
Have you been eating a lot of fresh water sashimi?
Fresh water sashimi?
Your liver is infested with parasites.
It had caused enlargement of your liver that’s why there’s abnormality.
After the test on your stool, we discovered the parasites.
Parasites?
After taking the medication, you should be fine.
Please don’t worry.
This is really embarrassing!
How can you as a Doctor have parasites that led to a serious problem?
You really scared us all.
You’re really way out of line. How can you scare me like that?
You are laughing by yourself while seeing me tremble in fear.
It’s not laughing but crying…crying.
How can I be friends with someone like you?
Really...
This is embarrassing.
It’s a relief that it’s nothing serious.
Has everybody done their medical examination?
Yes.
I will go within this week.
Nurse Bae, you must go for your examination.
You like to drink. You need to an ultrascan on your liver.
Yes.
I’m finished with work for today.
Do you want another cup of coffee?
Yes.
Thank you.
Clamp…
Suction…
Suction.
Sorry…
You waited really long, didn’t you?
Please sit down.
I have already drank 3 cups of coffee & you still didn’t come.
Professor Han has left, the Dept Heat is not well. The operation schedule is overflowing.
Today alone I have done 3 operations.
Can your body withstand this?
You don’t have someone beside you even any family member.
Have you done your check up?
Where would I find the time for that?
Even my own operating schedule is not easy to manage.
No matter how hard it is, you need to get checked.
Don’t wait until you become another Professor Jeong Do Young.
I know…I will go…go.
What would you like to eat?
Excuse me.
Yes, right..
Open it.
Do you still remember it?
Of course.
When we were in medical school, we went to Paris for a course and bought this from an antique shop.
Didn’t you say you will wait for the woman you want to marry to give it to her?
When was that? It must have been at least 10 years.
You still kept this until now?
Ever since, I was never in a relationship.
If you like it, I’d like to give it to you.
Are you proposing to me now?
It’s just…
Really…There is no excitement at all.
You should understand me well enough that I have no knowledge of how a woman feels.
It’s because of my fear of commitment that’s why I avoided it.
Is it okay with you me being like this? Do you still want to live with me?
Why aren’t you giving me an answer?
Recalling the times I’ve suffered, I’m now contemplating whether to accept it or not.
If you decline, I can’t say anything.
However, it’d be great if you will accept it.
Although this won’t sound sincere in me saying this, but after seeing how sick Professor Jeong Do Young was, I suddenly become afraid of being alone.
Hye Soo, you’re an understanding & kind person. Please excuse all the worries I’ve caused you & understand my shortcomings. Can you do that?
I…have liked Senior for 10 years now, do you know that?
Let's treat today as a start of our life together.
This will compensate waiting for the past 10 years.
Can you do that?
This necklace…Can Senior help me wear this?
It’s pretty.
Why aren’t you taking more rest instead of reading reviews?
It’s really boring. It’s really boring to be lying here all day.
During your stay in the hospital, your blood sugar has already come down a lot. If you’ll be able to control it, everything will be fine.
During this period of controlling my blood sugar, I fear the food being served.
Now I understand why patients express dissatisfaction over their meals.
I heard that Park Ji Won is taking over as Dept Head.
Yes.
That’s fine.
If he takes it up, he will able to manage it well.
You need to offer your support whenever he needs it.
Yes.
I have something to say.
Hmm…
I…& Hye Soo are going to get married.
Really? That's good news.
Congratulations!
Thank you.
I always thought that it’s such a pity that you’re living alone.
On several occasions, I tried to be your matchmaker. But once I knew that Song Hye Soo likes you, I never pursued it.
You made a really good decision.
Professor Song beside you will be able to help you in many ways.
It’s because both of us are not getting any younger that’s why we have decided to do this as soon as possible.
I wish the Dept Head will preside over our marriage.
This will make the Asst Director upset.
If Asst Director will preside, he’ll give his long speeches. I’m afraid it will drive the wedding guests to boredom.
I’m the next best candidate.
Fine. My speech will be short & sweet for you.
Thank you.
Really?!
Of course it’s not too late…yes…
Please don’t worry. I will tell them.
What’s the matter?
Would that be there’s something on my result?
How am I going to put this, Nurse Seo?
What is it actually?
This is…compared to me, she has jumped over the queue.
They’re getting married. Professor Kim & Professor Song.
What?
Are they really getting married?
Of course it’s real.
You really gave me a scare. I thought it was something else.
Since they’re going to get married anyway, why did they prolong it?
I really have this weird feeling.
What feeling?
It took them at this age to get married. Wouldn’t it because there’s something wrong with him sexually?
You brat! They are in normal condition.
Yes, I heard that you’re getting married. Now I believe it.
Congratulations!
Yes, thank you.
During the wedding, Professor Song will throw her wedding bouquet to Nurse Ma.
Really?
It is double the happiness.
Really nice...
Congratulations!
No wonder that your face looks radiant. It’s because of this.
Really?
Not just her face even her mood.
No matter what, marriage is something one has to experience then regrets later.
Are you trying to stop me?
It’s not that. It’s better to regret being married and not to be married at all.
I heard you’re finally getting married.
This made your wish come true.
It’s not because of me that this happened.
End of this month? Must it be so soon?
Both of us are not young anymore. We can’t delay this any longer.
Having decided on this, will there be time for preparation?
The wedding will be held in the Dongmun Reception Hall.
If it’s not available then it will be just be a registry.
After the wedding, we’ll just stay at the hospital residence. We haven’t thought far ahead yet.
Who’ll preside?
We have invited Professor Jeong Do Young to preside.
If you need anything, please don’t hesitate to call me.
Thank you.
Professor, the Doctors & Nurses medical test results are out.
Are they?
What’s the matter?
In the Dept, 2 of my staff have contracted highly contagious disease from the patients.
Really?
In the emergency room, we treat patients without prior knowledge of their condition. So there is high risk of getting infected with contagious diseases.
You’re lucky. There is no side effect from that.
I know. I will make an effort to continue with my health regimen.
If we have the time, we can exercise together.
Yes. Dr. Baek you need to invest time to exercise to be healthy.
Unlike me, I need to take supplements.
Isn’t this fate that I’ll be the one who’ll take responsibility?
So that’s why, don’t get sick.
I know.
This exercise of medical test has proven that infectious diseases are easily spread around the hospital and even some are at critical levels.
In the Emergency Dept, they are so busy treating patients. They don’t bother being exposed to contagious diseases & still continue with treatment.
I heard that the Emergency Dept & the Nurses Corp need to be vaccinated for MRSA (Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus) based on the report.
It’s not just in the Emergency Dept. The whole hospital needs to be notified on the potential risk & precaution has to be made for this.
We should be careful of our health so we can avoid the case of Dept Head Jeong.
The patient’s health is important but the hospital staff’s health is equally as important.
Dissemination of information regarding high risk infection must be implemented or else we’ll be putting the health of our staff at risk.
Please take note of the precaution needed in case of patients with highly contagious diseases & do the necessary isolation to prevent spreading.
We also need to manage the schedule of the staff to avoid over fatigue.
I understand.
Parasite!
Ah!
Do you still have abdominal discomfort anywhere?
Fatigue, pain & indigestion?
What’s with you? I really feel shy about this.
Let’s go & measure your weight.
With all the parasites gone, it’s possible you’ve lost weight.
I’m not in the mood to be joking around.
After this medical check up, there are a lot of people who have worse.
I need to be grateful that mine is just parasites.
Then you should thank the parasites that your body is hosting for so long.
Yes, I understand. I need to thank them for being inside my body.
I never realized that the Emergency Dept’s general health condition could be so critical.
I should have spent more time on my staff’s welfare.
We’re lucky that this exercise has brought out amendments to improve the health standard of the staff.
Senior, you don’t have any abnormality?
That…
What? You haven’t gone for your examination yet?
I haven’t found the time to do so. Nothing was found during my last check up.
Last time? Do you know when the time & date of that last time?
As far as I can remember, that was 3 years ago.
I know. When I’m free, I will do it.
You just want to let this pass.
This won’t do.
I can tolerate others not doing it but I will not let you off the hook.
This examination has to be done before our marriage. You need to bear this in mind.
This is not joking matter.
I understand.
I will now go & do the test at once. Is that fine with you?
I am in the middle of doing the test, I need to be obedient…
You are cooking...Really?...I’ll be expecting.
Okay. On the way back I’ll pick up a bottle of wine.
Hmm…See you later.
I heard that Professor Park has been made the Dept Head.
Yes.
Will the Surgical Dept’s atmosphere be as frightening as it was the last time?
If you have any discomfort anywhere, please tell us.
Yes…Thank you.
Then we shall begin.
Okay.
If there is a discomfort, you need to tolerate it.
Please do not cough…fine….
Just tolerate it a little while longer…
Wait…
There is something there.
First we need to perform a biopsy.
