[Episode 1]
Hello.
I'm Yoon Hyun Il, the chairman of Taesan Hospital.
This afternoon, the presidential candidate from the Minseng Party
Candidate Han Min Sik's heart transplant is scheduled.
Following the primary elections two months ago
Candidate Han received a left ventricular assist device transplant
otherwise known as an LVAD transplant at our hospital.
But at the request of the candidate, we had not publicized it until now.
The details of today's surgery and the recovery process
will be explained by Dr. Choi Seok Han who will be performing the surgery.
I'm Choi Seok Han from the thoracic surgery department at Taesan Hospital.
During today's operation
we will be exchanging the candidate's heart with a VAD
with that of a donor's heart.
It is estimated the surgery will last about four to six hours.
If he recovers as expected from the surgery, he'll be discharged in a month.
And he will be able to return to politics in three months' time.
He will have no problem continuing with the campaign
and if he is elected
it will be the first time in the world
for a president with a heart transplant
to fulfill his duties and finish his term.
Candidate Han Min Sik who won by a landslide in the primary election
announced his scheduled heart surgery, confronting his problem head on.
But with the rumors of his poor health proving to be true
it is expected to play out negatively in the election.
The possibility of another primary election cannot be ruled out.
They're always so pessimistic.
Don't let it bother you, sir.
Sir, how are you feeling?
I feel fine.
You must be worried.
If I get worried over something like this
how will the public ever be able to entrust me with the nation?
Yes, you have my word.
I won't let this deter you from your important mission.
I'll do my best.
If the surgery goes well, I'll do my best, too.
Yes.
I'm sure you'll have no problem making your way to the Blue House.
It's a difficult surgery, please take good care of him.
Nothing difficult about it... You just need to connect a few vessels...
Sir, we'll start the preparations for the surgery soon.
Here!
[Moojin Hospital] Move it over there.
We haven't started, yet. We need to take care of Taesan first.
We need to extract the heart first because of Taesan.
Yes.
[Hankook Hospital]
[Taesan Hospital]
Taesan did the artificial heart transplant for Candidate Han
and I didn't know about it?
You knew, right?
Since it was Dr. Choi's surgery, I'm sure you were his first assistant.
You really can't trust anyone...
This is why I should never trust those who graduated from other schools.
- Why is it not starting? - Hey, Dong Joon.
- Yeah, Dong Joon. - How have you been?
That's right... Candidate Han is at your hospital?
Yeah, that's why I'm here.
- Nothing gets done without me... - You guys are messing up the order...
Professor.
The surgery took longer than expected, so I'm late.
I'm sorry.
No, I came a little early.
- Tae Soo. - Yes.
The chairman asked me to do the heart transplant for Candidate Han Min Sik.
Doctor...
- But the heart... - Tae Soo.
Let's do it together.
We'll start soon.
Taesan Hospital, prepare to extract the heart.
Tae Soo, Taesan!
Dong Joon.
- Yeah? - I'm sorry for not telling you.
About the artificial heart?
It's okay, I understand.
Let's pray.
We thank you for your love and for sharing with us your exalted life.
We pray that peace be with him on his way to the Lord.
We'll start.
Scalpel.
Get me the gauze.
- Call Dr. Choi that we're on our way. - Okay, I'll call him.
We just finished.
We're leaving now, and we'll be there in an hour.
Yes.
Tae Soo.
Let's do it together.
Sir.
We'll start the anesthesia and start the surgery soon.
It's finally hitting me now that I'm lying down here.
By the time you wake up from your restful sleep, it will all be over.
Doctor Choi, please let me live.
I'll see you when the surgery is finished.
Breathe deeply, so your chest rises.
You'll fall asleep soon.
Look over everything carefully.
Of course.
Just in case something goes wrong
Dr. Kim is waiting in the next room to take care of things.
- But nothing will go wrong. - Of course, not.
You have no idea how much money that patient is worth.
Welcome, they'll be starting the surgery soon.
I have my faith in you.
Tae Soo.
We're here.
Text him.
We see Taesan Hospital.
We'll be landing soon.
- Dong Joon. - What is it?
Loupe... I left my loupe behind.
- What - Can you get it?
I have one in the office.
How can you leave behind your eyes?
- Why should I go? - I need to prepare for the surgery.
I'll take your shift this weekend.
This weekend?
Where is it?
- It should be on my desk. - Fine.
Go get ready.
There we go. Let's go.
We'll start the surgery.
Scalpel.
Doctor!
Professor, I'm here.
Where is Dr. Park?
What?
Where is Tae Soo?
He should be here already...
He asked me to bring his loupe.
He's not here?
I saw him go into the operating room.
- Professor Koo. - Yes.
Please find out what's going on.
Sure.
You're sure he came with you?
Yes, I'm sure he came in here.
He's not picking up.
Pick it up...
[Dr. Choi Seok Han]
Yes, Professor.
Dr. Park, where are you?
Dr. Koo Dong Joon is already here.
I'm sorry.
It's okay.
I understand you're late.
You're on your way here now, right? I'll wait in the operating room.
I don't think I'll be able to go there today.
Tae Soo.
We're almost there.
If this surgery is a success...
It will all be over.
We'll be able to have everything that we've ever wanted.
Not we, but what you've wanted.
Listen carefully, Tae Soo.
Get over here immediately with that heart.
Please, Tae Soo.
Park Tae Soo!
[DramaFever Ver] SBS E01 Two Lives One Heart "Doctors Aren't Almighty" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
[2014]
One, two, three.
Why is she here?
She was found collapsed at a construction site after going there to deliver food.
- How long since she collapsed? - They think 20 minutes.
Ma'am, can you hear me?
Ma'am, where does it hurt?
Over here...
Forceps.
How far along are you?
Park Tae Soo, why are you in here?
Get out.
- Professor. - You think we're a joke?
If you think we're all a joke, you try being the professor.
- Never mind. - Get out.
- Then I'll get out. - I'll leave.
You won't be allowed in any operating rooms.
Stop wasting your time, and just worry about where you will do your fellowship.
Call the fellow doctor.
Do I need to be bothered with these petty operations because of you?
- I'm sorry. - We're short on staff as it is.
You think we don't say anything because we don't have eyes?
Just pretend you don't see.
The only reason you're here is because you are in cardiothoracic surgery.
Otherwise, a Haewon University graduate would have no chance here.
You should know your place, Fool.
Today's the disciplinary meeting, right?
- Yes. - You still have time.
Think it over well.
I'm only used to working with adult hearts.
It's been a while since I've seen a baby's heart...
I can't see well at all...
What's wrong with his vessels?
Oh, this is it.
Yeah, I haven't lost my touch.
- Doctor, I think that's the aorta. - What?
What do you know?
- You've done a PDA surgery before? - No, but I think that's the aorta.
Damn kid, it's your first time doing a PDA surgery, so just shut up.
Just hold it open. Suture.
Okay.
Young doctors these days are funny.
They're very bold.
Let's finish up quickly, and go eat.
How about sausage soup?
It's a cardiac arrest.
- Call Dr. Hwang, hurry! - Okay.
Dr. Hwang, it's an arrest.
What's going on? Cardiac arrest?
Take over.
Something went wrong with the surgery before.
- What? - We need to open up again...
I'm the professor of the department, how dare you tell me what to do?
We need to open up again if we want to save the baby.
- We have no time. - Shut up.
Listen carefully, there was nothing wrong with the surgery.
Do you understand?
We need to open up again.
This is Park Tae Soo.
What?
Hello, Doctor.
Tae Soo.
Mom.
You must be busy. You shouldn't have come.
I told you to stop delivering food.
I'm fine, I enjoy doing that.
I should go now.
You're not okay, you're not going anywhere.
Just lie down.
Dr. Park.
Professor.
You don't have to get up.
I heard she collapsed while she was working.
We'll start the testing soon, don't worry too much.
She'll be fine. Her son is a doctor here after all.
Professor, please take care of our Tae Soo.
Don't worry, Dr. Park is so talented, I count on him a lot.
No, Dr. Park Tae Soo?
Tae Soo, make sure you listen to the professor, okay?
Dr. Park listens very well to me, Mother.
We'll go for the CT scan.
Tell them I made a special request for her to go first.
And tell them to send the results as soon as possible.
Yes, Doctor.
Should we go in now?
Tae Soo.
I heard you've been kicked out of an operating room before, too.
What good is a surgeon if he can't perform surgeries?
Fine, I'll admit it. It was my mistake.
As you know, the minute a doctor admits his wrong, it's all over.
Who would let him perform a surgery on them?
You don't think you'll make mistakes?
What do you get by doing this? Where will you do your fellowship?
Professor.
Let this go just this once.
I'm repenting a lot, too.
What doctor would want something to go wrong with his patient?
Think of your mother, it looks like she's had a hard life.
Let her be proud of her doctor son.
No?
Dr. Park Tae Soo.
It's only your own assumption that the surgeon sutured up the aorta, right?
As soon as the patient came to the ICU, the pulse on the lower body was weak.
It was difficult to take his blood pressure.
And seeing that he could not urinate at all...
I was led to think the descending aorta was tied up during the surgery.
There were seven medical staff in that operating room that day
but Dr. Park is the only one insisting that it was malpractice.
You explained to the guardians that death is a possible outcome
and got them to sign the consent form, no?
Yes, that's right.
Doctors are no God.
Even if we do our best, there are times when we can't save lives.
Every time a patient dies
if we get accused of malpractice
what doctor will be willing to perform a difficult surgery?
You are absolutely right.
The video files from the operation were deleted
so we can't go by your words alone, Dr. Park
that it was the operating surgeon's fault.
And the deceased patient's funeral has already passed.
In any case, Dr. Park is my resident-in-training.
He lacks experience, so it's only natural that he makes mistakes.
- I will train him well. - Okay.
It will be in the best interest of Dr. Park, too, to end this here.
I have the video file of the surgery.
What?
I'm sorry.
Park Tae Soo, you jerk!
How do you have that when I erased everything?
I took you in despite your lacking background.
How dare you do this? You think you'll get away with this?
I told you I may not be able to help you, but I sure can ruin you.
You're finished, too.
Thoracic surgeon, Hwang Jin Chul, will be suspended from all surgery
for the next three months.
Further, he will be held responsible for all lawsuits regarding this case.
Yeah, Woo Jin.
The results came out?
What?
I saw your mom amongst the emergency room patients.
It's the AAA syndrome, right?
I've never seen one this big.
Your mother is so thin.
She's got a vessel this big inside. How could she not have known?
She must have been able to feel it with her hands.
It's an impending rupture.
What?
It'll rupture soon?
But...
We need to schedule an operation right away.
Tae Soo, it's a good thing we found this now.
She'll be fine after the surgery. Call the professor.
What is it?
There is nobody who can perform the surgery.
All the professors are in surgery right now.
Not a single one? What about the professor?
Right, the disciplinary meeting... What happened?
Did you go against him?
Woo Jin, please watch over my mom.
Why did things turn out this way?
Professor, my mother has AAA Syndrome with an impending rupture.
It was shown to be 8 centimeters on the CT scan
- and she also has high blood pressure. - She needs the surgery right away then.
You know if the aorta ruptures, there is a 95 percent chance of death.
The longer you wait, the harder it will be to save her life.
- What are you waiting for? - Professor...
I'll schedule the surgery then.
Thank you. Thank you, Professor.
You should thank the doctor who will perform the surgery.
Professor.
Please operate on her.
Please perform the operation for my mother...
Please, Professor.
Professor.
Yeah, you may have stabbed me in the back
but I should still save your mother.
Thank you.
Thank you, Professor.
- Thank you. - Schedule it three months from now.
Weren't you there, too? I'm the only one who heard?
Suspended from surgeries for three months.
Maybe longer if the lawsuit drags on.
I must have been crazy.
You made no mistake.
I must have seen wrong.
If she can't get the surgery now, my mother will die.
She will be dying because of her great son.
I guess it's not so bad.

[Episode 2]
- Tae Soo, what happened? - Mom, how do you feel now?
Tae Soo, my stomach hurt like it would burst before.
But now, my legs feel all tingly.
Move your toes. Can you do it?
It's okay, Mom.
Tae Soo, she seems to be in more pain than before.
Should I give her painkiller?
- Just 3 mL of morphine. - Okay.
We need to get her to the operating room. Dr. Hwang will do it, right?
This is totally urgent.
I need to find someone who will operate on her.
What?
I'll save my mom.
Her BP is 80, and it's been an hour and a half since she arrived.
Se's got an impending rupture, and needs surgery immediately.
Will it be possible?
Yes, this is the ER at Joongsan Hospital.
- No surgeon? - AAA patient with an impending rupture.
It's a female in her 50s. She needs to be operated on immediately.
Yes, I'll be waiting. Please find out.
No?
You have no room in the ICU?
Not even one?
This is too urgent.
Can we get the surgery first and keep her in the recovery room?
Can you operate on her?
- Okay. - You have no operating room?
It will take an hour if we leave now, you won't have one then, either?
If everyone says no, what do we do with our patient?
[Congratulations to Director Yoon Hyun Il for the new appointment]
You want to build a hospital in Africa?
I've been planning it since the beginning, it's what Father wanted, too.
If we build one in Africa, we won't need to bring the kids here on a plane.
And it will be good for marketing, too.
Yeah...
I'll be submitting the proposal to the board soon.
I just hope the chairman won't be against it.
As long as there are no problems...
It's my brother's first business proposal after becoming director of the hospital.
I shouldn't be against it.
Wow, thanks, Brother.
- Is Director Yoon in? - The chairman is with him.
Yeah?
I'll come back later then.
Chairman Yoon!
Oh...
- You should go in. - Yes.
This is report of all surgeries from each department for first half of the year.
Since your new appointment, we've been doing much better than last year.
- Is that so? - Yes.
I see Professor Choi Seok Han has a lot more surgeries now, too.
We're not sending any patients to Professor Han.
Then?
Some come from word of mouth.
And other hospitals...
If he has so many surgeries, when will we be able to fire him?
Well, the chairman won't allow us to touch Professor Choi.
What the heck is he thinking?
Oh, right...
What happened to the patient I sent?
I'll check on it right now.
Did you start the operation on Politician Kim?
Everything is going well.
What the heck?
What the heck happened?
Hello? Oh, it's nothing.
I'll call you when the surgery is finished.
What?
The director will be coming down?
Hey, stall some time.
I just need a little time. Please...
Why is Professor Choi still not here? Go get him now!
Doctor...
What took you so long? Hurry, and take care of this.
It exploded while opening her up. I can't open it or close it.
Damn it.
The director will be coming down. Take care of it quickly.
- We have no time. - Okay.
- Polyp. - Hurry!
Let go.
Balloon.
Anesthesiologist, I need one more minute.
I don't think it's necessary for you to go, I'll report to you when it's over.
- Is there a problem? - Pardon?
No.
I'm sure Professor Koo is doing a great job.
He's the best in our hospital.
Let's go, it's been a while since I last saw Professor Koo, too.
The director will be there soon.
I told this punk to give me some time, he's no help at all.
He's gone. Come out.
This is why I hate getting VIPs.
Something always goes wrong.
There's even a VIP Syndrome.
No?
I'll buy you a drink later.
Thank you.
Are you still passing out your business cards, and getting patients?
- You don't accept emergency patients? - Can't you do something?
Okay.
- Darn it... - What's going on?
Dr. Park's mother has AAA Syndrome, but no hospital will accept her.
No doctors, no operating rooms, no ICUs...
This won't be easy.
Somebody came and left a business card here recently.
What?
Oh, here.
He said he would accept any patients with aorta problems at any time.
Taesan Hospital?
They said they have no operating room.
[Choi Seok Han]
Please...
He's not picking up?
Taesan already said they have no OR available.
They have a ton of patients, they won't accept an emergency.
Let's call and look some more.
Hello.
This is cardiothoracic surgeon Choi Seok Han from Taesan Hospital.
- Did you call? - Yes, Professor.
I'm Park Tae Soo, a resident in thoracic surgery at Joongsan Hospital.
We have an emergency patient with AAA Syndrome and impending rupture.
Tell me more.
A 56-year-old female with high blood pressure and no other conditions
visited the ER two hours ago complaining of stomach pains.
We've verified an 8 cm AAA with a CT scan.
She's on painkiller, her BP is 90/60, and her heart rate is in the 90s.
Please, Doctor...
How long will it take you?
Two and a half hours... No, we can get there in two hours.
Then come.
Prepare for all emergencies before leaving.
Thank you.
Thank you, Professor.
Good, let's go.
- Woo Jin, we're going to Taesan. - Yeah.
- Get ready to transfer her. - Okay.
- Get enough blood, too. - Okay.
Please get the ambulance ready.
Mom, hang on... You can't let go.
Come on...
- One... - Nam Woo Jin, what are you doing?
You can't go there alone. I'll go with you.
- I can't send you two off alone. - What if the chief looks for you?
- He'll be mad. - He won't be mad.
Come on, you get on, too. Send the CT scan to Dr. Choi.
Okay.
One, two, three.
Tae Soo.
Mom.
If we go to a big hospital, it will cost a lot of money.
Is that what you're worried about right now?
Your son makes a lot of money.
I told you to go see a doctor if you're sick, why didn't you go?
If you had gone to see a doctor, this wouldn't have happened.
If they can't do anything at the hospital where you work...
What's the use?
- I'm okay. - What are you saying?
You are about to die before my eyes right now.
Tae Soo, what are you saying to her?
Mother, Tae Soo's just frustrated, too.
Don't take it to heart.
I'm sorry, Tae Soo.
As a parent, I just make my son suffer...
If you are going to say that
why did you even come to our hospital?
Come on, Punk! That's enough.
Mom, listen to me carefully.
You have to hang tight until we get to Seoul.
Okay?
You have to hang in there.
We found a doctor in Seoul who will operate on you.
He's waiting for us right now.
As soon as we get there, he'll start the surgery.
Okay?
You'll be fine after the surgery, so don't worry about anything.
And stop worrying about damn money.
You promised me, okay?
You can't let yourself go.
I'm so happy that I get to see my son for a long time like this.
[DramaFever Ver] SBS E02 Two Lives One Heart "I'm Going to Save My Mom" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
- Hello. - I'm looking at the CT scan now.
It's already ruptured, and there is leaking blood.
- I didn't notice that. - Do you notice bloating in her stomach?
- There must be a lot of blood leaking. - I'm not sure.
It doesn't seem very much different from usual.
It's a miracle she's still alive. You won't be able to make it here.
Turn the car around, and get the surgery there.
We can't go back.
Even if we go back, we won't be able to get the surgery.
We'll do whatever it takes to get there, so please save her.
If you continue to come here, she'll die.
No matter what, I'll bring her there alive.
I'll wait.
Okay.
Don't worry.
She'll be okay.
We need to give her blood.
A patient with a ruptured AAA will arrive before 5.
Please prepare for an emergency operation.
One more stent and we will be done.
I feel my heart tightening all of a sudden.
I will call a cardiothoracic surgeon.
You are okay. It's nothing.
Her feet are cold.
Woo Jin, we have warm saline, right?
Yeah, here.
Here.
Woo Jin, how much longer?
- How much longer? - We're almost there.
We're almost there.
Bastard, why is he driving like that?
Mom!
Mom, can you hear me?
- Mom! - Mother.
Mom!
Saturation is dropping. Woo Jin, we need to intubate.
Okay.
I'll do it. Leave it.
Woo Jin, hurry.
- Hurry up! - Okay.
It's in, take it off.
It's in well. Good.
The saturation is rising.
- Hello? - How is she?
Doctor, her BP just rose to 150, but now, it's not even 40.
And the heart rate rose to 140, but it's dropping suddenly.
It's a secondary attack. Do you have a scalpel?
Yes, we do.
You need to open her up now and grab the aorta.
- What? - That's the only way.
Open her up now. You want to kill her?
What is it?
We need to open up her chest.
Get everything ready.
What? You'll open her up here?
Betadine.
Are you crazy?
Seriously...
- Scalpel. - Come on...
Scalpel!
Seriously...
Tae Soo!
Gosh...
I got it.
I grabbed it.
Woo Jin, blood. Hurry, blood!
Nurse, get the blood.
- How much longer? - We'll be there in ten minutes.
We're transfusing blood. We'll be there in 10 minutes!
The patient will be here in 10 minutes.
Please get ready.
- Dr. Koo. - Yes?
- Go down and bring the patient. - Okay.
Who is it? Who's the patient?
I see this room is empty.
Professor Choi Seok Han.
Director, what brings you here?
I need you to operate on an emergency patient.
We have a very urgent patient arriving soon.
Is it another one of the patients you got after passing out your business cards?
You had no patients before, I wonder how you were able to get so many now?
I understand, if that's what you need to do to get patients
it's a good thing for Taesan, too.
But if the hospital has an emergency patient of its own
they should get the priority, no?
The patient has a ruptured AAA.
She'll die if I don't operate on her now.
Even if you operate on her, there is less than a five percent chance she'll live.
Why would you operate on a patient that will die anyway?
My patient has a ripped coronary artery, so he'll live if we just operate on him.
Who do you think we should operate on?
She's coming from two hours away counting on me.
- Tell her to go elsewhere. - Director.
You think I'll let just anyone take care of my patient?
This will be an opportunity for you, too.
I'm sorry.
Does it sound like I'm asking you for a favor, Professor Choi Seok Han?
- What happened? - Nurse, take the ambulance back.
We're from Joongsan Hospital.
What are you doing? Hurry!
Take it slow...
This way.
Slow down.
Slow down. Again.
Turn here. Let's go.
It's room number 20 on the left at the end.
Mom, we're here.
You made it.
Over here...
Tae Soo... Tae Soo...
We have an urgent surgery. You'll have to go to another hospital.
You think that makes sense?
Where are we supposed to go now?
Professor Choi Seok Han.
The hospital had an emergency patient.
What are you saying?
After we came all the way here...
You don't see this?
I did as you told me to do!
You said you would wait!
I'm sorry.
Sorry?
How can you say that?
You think we came all the way here to hear that?
Take them out.
She'll die if she leaves!
Shut up and operate on her now!
Shut up and operate on her!
Let's start.
Scalpel.
What are you doing?
Are you crazy? Stop right now!
- Stop! - You told us to come!
How can you do this to us?
After everything we went through to get here, you don't see this?
- Dr. Koo Dong Joon. - But, still...
No!
- Don't touch it. - No!
- Don't touch it. - I'm sorry, but...
Don't touch her.
If my mom dies, you're all dead.
Please!
Doctor!
Professor Park.
Doctor!
Doctor, please save my mother.
Doctor!
- Mother... - Please save my mother!
Doctor...
Please...
You call yourselves doctors?
How can you do this as a doctor?
