Thank goodness. The bus isn't here yet.
Don't you have to make an important report...
for the chairman today? Are you all ready?
Of course, I'm totally ready.
Give me your hand.
Isn't this a rosary ring that Grandma gave you?
I became a doctor thanks to her.
It's your turn.
- So Geum. - Han Bit, go!
Go!
Bye.
Why do you keep pushing me away?
What makes me worse than Jae Hwan and Jae In?
Is it because of mother?
Wait and see.
Taekang will be mine.
I'm sorry.

(Episode 15)
What is it?
You broke Medical Service Law and Pharmacy Law.
Please come with us.
I think there is a misunderstanding.
The one who should be questioned is...
with the prosecution already.
You should go voluntarily.
Was it you?
Yes, you're right. I made a report.
- What? - I told you...
that I'll show you how I will beat you.
Do you think I'll go down with such a cheap move?
Breaking the Pharmacy Law.
Do you really think that's all I have?
What?
Look forward to it.
Goodness, Director Seon.
What's going on?
I think there is a misunderstanding.
It's nothing. I'll see you tomorrow.
Of course.
I guess someone tried to ruin your name...
and insult you.
Don't worry about us.
I hope the investigation goes well.
Did he get caught with clear evidence this time?
You were there with me.
Hundreds of letters were...
sent to the Inspection Department.
If what Dr. Na said is true,
he won't be able to escape so easily this time.
I really hope that becomes the reality.
He has good connections,
so we never know what would happen.
That's why we need to take some measures...
before he comes out.
We should, right?
Of course.
Only a few days ago,
gifts poured into our office,
so I thought my life as a public health doctor...
will only get better from now on.
This is so out of the blue.
You're right.
Will you be okay, Dr. Ko?
What? What did I do?
You always came here in a state of hungover...
and made us put you on IV in secret.
They might find out when they investigate.
I paid for those all.
And if I get in trouble for that,
you'll also get in trouble for putting me on IV.
So if you end up making a testimony,
don't say anything stupid.
Hey, Inspector.
I know you are working hard,
but you should relieve your fatigue first.
Gosh, you don't look so well.
It's because of your liver.
Restore your liver back to normal first.
Next?
Dr. Han.
Have you been well?
Dr. Han.
Dr. Han, I heard something bad happened.
Are you feeling okay?
I'm fine now.
Thank you for your concern.
Where is Dr. Na?
You finally took down Director Seon.
It's just the beginning.
I have a long way to go until I really get him.
I came to ask you a question.
Was ruining Kim Seok Woo...
a part of your plan?
That's already over.
I don't need to answer that, do I?
Let me help you.
I want to join hands with you once again.
This time, I'll refuse.
Why?
You can always get hurt again like you did before.
It is my job to meet and consult patients...
who suffer from bipolar disorder,
sociopaths, and psychopaths.
Also, my life hasn't been comfortable...
for you to worry that much about me.
And it always will be.
Is that so?
Fine, then let me ask you one question.
Are you confident that you won't suspect me,
no matter what I do?
Yes.
Even if I'm the one who made...
Bit disappear?
Even if you did,
I know you'll bring him back to me.
Had I not trusted you this much,
I wouldn't have come here.
Don't you think so?
(Ministry of Justice's interrogation room)
Let's check your identity first.
You're Seon Min Sik, 48 years old,
and the medical director of the penitentiary.
- Is this correct? - Yes, it is.
But what did I violate for you to take me by force?
This is the list of the government issued...
drugs that you stole with Supervisor Ham.
You stole the expensive hypertension drugs,
hyperlipidemia, diabetes,
and metabolic diseases to the people outside,
gave the inmates placebos instead.
I've been set up.
These are letters from the inmates,
claiming that they were given placebos.
And these are analyses of the drug components.
I guess people scheme setups as a group.
What am I taking?
My stomach keeps hurting.
You passed. You too.
Write it again.
(My back still hurts.)
Can't you do better than that?
Kim Sang Chun, you rat.
Those are all conspiracies and schemes.
Then how will you explain this?
This is a photo of your underling,
Supervisor Ham, repackaging the drugs...
at a pharmacy...
and delivering them to a sanatorium.
How will you explain this?
(One month ago)
Do you think you can give Kim Seok Woo...
a suspension of execution of detention?
If I couldn't, I wouldn't have started this.
What do you need?
I'd like all of his prior medical reports.
I'll send them to you right away.
I also need someone to bring in the drugs...
that I need to create his illnesses.
I'd appreciate it if you could provide me with one.
Supervisor Ham, bring in...
all the medications Dr. Na needs.
Yes, sir.
But you see, these medications are...
impossible to get immediately.
Will you be able to do it?
(Phenobarbital, Gadolinium)
We can get phenobarbital through...
Kim Seok Woo's prescription.
I can get gadolinium by tomorrow.
Okay.
I guess the person you trust the most...
is Supervisor Ham.
Kim Seok Woo's execution getting suspended...
was bait.
He just needed to find out how I got those drugs.
I need to make a call.
You can do that after we're done.
I will cooperate with the investigation.
So please let me use the phone.
It's me.
Don't push, you scumbag.
I can walk in myself.
Why did he have to push me?
Why all the cells are so tiny?
How could a human being live in such a place?
Hey, geezer. Are you the boss here?
Seeing how you're sleeping at this hour,
I think you are.
Don't you know how to say hi?
Hey. You were at the bus accident.
You...
What?
What connections do you have?
You little punk!
Let me go, you dirtbag!
- Come here. - No!
Get away from me!
- I got you! - Hey!
Prosecutor Jung.
The Ministry of Justice's Inspection Department...
needs your help.
They want you to look into...
Director Seon Min Sik...
of Western Seoul Penitentiary.
"Seon Min Sik"?
Yes. He's currently being interrogated...
for illegally trafficking the penitentiary's drugs.
(Medicine cabinet, doctor's prescription)
(Seon prescribes drugs to nonexistent inmates.)
That punk.
Was baiting me not enough...
that he had to call for the Inspection Department?
What should we do?
This definitely smells fishy.
Ask them to send their files to us...
since we're investigating it as well.
Give me a list of the inmates he sent...
to Taekang Hospital on stays of execution.
Let's dig into them first.
Yes, sir.
- Honey. - You have 10 minutes.
Hello.
How much did...
the Inspection Department know?
They seem to be only aware of the fact that...
we gave the inmates placebos...
and that we delivered the drugs...
from the penitentiary to the sanatorium.
Do you think our hospital has been exposed?
That's highly unlikely.
If you want to prevent that from happening,
it's best to give up the sanatorium first.
Transfer the ownership of...
the sanatorium to the office manager.
Make it seem like it was his corruption...
and cut him off.
Yes, sir.
Then we're left with Supervisor Ham.
He confessed he bought the drugs himself...
and gave them to his mother...
who was at the sanatorium.
He'll probably receive a three-month...
wage reduction.
My goodness, this was not expected.
By the way, how did Na Yi Je know...
that you were linked to the sanatorium?
I looked through the records,
and he used to work there for a while.
Are you saying this was all planned out?
Honey.
He could've approached your penitentiary,
making a pretense of medical services.
So look into that.
Yes, sir.
No. Something seems off.
This is unlike him.
Could it be...
Sir!
What are you doing?
I need to meet the lawyer.
I allowed you to see visitors making it...
a condition that you agree with an overnight inquiry.
You need to return to the interrogation room.
I just need to say one thing!
Mr. Seon, this is the Inspection Department.
Should I charge you for violating...
the Pharmacy Law...
and begin the official investigation?
(VIP list)
(Copying files)
I only agreed to help,
not conspire in a crime.
Then why did you steal these files...
in the middle of the night?
Are you sure that safe is sturdy enough...
to store the VIP list?
The list itself isn't that important.
What's important is the kinds of deals...
he did with these people.
But that record isn't here.
So in order to know that,
we need to know their dispositions first.
Is that it?
Exactly.
Director Seon will be out of there by tomorrow.
I'd appreciate it if you could analyze...
their mentalities as soon as possible.
This will be an all-nighter.
I'll be expecting something in return.
The deadline is tomorrow.

(3514 Han Bit)
- So Geum. - Hey, Bit.
What happened to your face?
Why did you lose so much weight in a few days?
Me? What about my face?
Come on. I look great.
I've been eating well and...
So Geum?
Honey.
My phone.
- My phone. - Oh, okay. Here.
(11 Missed Calls, Ham Gil Seon)
(New Medical Director Appointment Ceremony)
Excuse me.
Please put that over there.
(Western Seoul Penitentiary)
- To the left. - Microphone check.
Over there. Yes.
Yes, Director Seon.
I came to the office as soon as...
I was done with the inspectors...
just in case.
But they're...
getting ready for Dr. Na's...
appointment ceremony, which is today.
(Congratulations, Medical Director Na Yi Je)
That darned scumbag.
This was his plan.
(Ministry of Justice)
As of today, Na Yi Je is the medical director...
of Western Seoul Penitentiary.
Director of the Correctional Service,
Kim Woo Jae.
(New Medical Director Appointment Ceremony)
(Western Seoul Penitentiary)
As of this moment, we'll forgo...
the interview with the medical director...
as well as the process for requesting treatment.
Currently, inmates requiring treatment...
must submit their requests to corrections officers.
Then they're sent to the staff in Medical Care,
and only then medical officers are dispatched.
He's feeling much better.
From now on, we'll build a system,
where we'll reach out to those in need first.
The inmates will be very happy about this change.
It means we'll have to work like dogs.
Wake up.
He left this safe untouched?
I understand that many of the inmates...
ended up here because of their heavy crimes,
but a considerable number of them deliberately...
ruined their own lives because of...
feeling rejected by society.
Lee Jae Hwan.
What? Sir.
Why do you think I let you transfer...
to the Medical Sector?
Hey, that's obviously because of my mom's...
No, I mean,
so that I can repent and become a good man.
All right, sir. Let me carry you into your cell.
1, 2, 3!
Oh, boy. Just a moment, please.
1, 2, 3.
My, he's so light.
He's light as a feather. I think I can carry...
- two people at once. - Gosh, stop that!
I'll make sure all inmates can receive...
medical care fairly.
Long time no see, sir.
(An Jin Chul, former director of NIS)
I'm here to ask a favor of you.
My successor got the role using his connections,
and he seems particularly interested...
in the Special Sector.
Please stall him just for a few days.
Why should I?
Your son is leaving the country in two days.
You should see him before he leaves.
I won't tell your wife.
I'll let you use the family reception room.
I'll take that as a yes. I'll be off, then.
What's the new medical director's name?
His name is Na Yi Je.
Isn't he the guy who got Oh Jung Hee out...
on a stay of execution?
Yes. That's correct.
Do you think that was his first time?
If Oh Jung Hee's case was his first attempt,
how was he able to get her out so effortlessly?
I heard there was a similar incident...
at the penitentiary in Ansan.
You must've been too busy preparing...
your retirement to hear the rumor.
Mr. Ko? It's me, Seon Min Sik.
Do you have some time today?
No, I'll come to where you are.
All right.
Where are you headed, looking all chipper?
Well, I have to step out to take care of something.
Oh, Mr. Seon.
I heard your rabbit hunt didn't go well.
It won't all go down the drain, will it?
No way.
That won't happen, so please don't worry.
By the way, what brings you here?
I heard the appointment ceremony was today.
Is it this way?
Yes, sir.
Sir, what brings you here?
If you had called me,
I would've rushed to your office.
Sure.
The timing is quite perfect.
I heard good news.
Oh, right.
I owe it all to you, sir.
Thank you.
Let me ask you something.
When the prosecution summoned you,
why did Taekang Hospital's legal team get involved?
Taekang Hospital...
Oh, that.
You know what? I was actually...
so surprised when they showed up...
offering help.
You see,
I was worried that they might ask me...
for something huge in return.
But I settled everything well...
by sending Lee Jae Hwan to another cell.
Don't worry about it.
Is something making you feel uncomfortable?
Director Lee, if I did anything to offend you,
then please tell me. I will fix my behavior.
You didn't do anything wrong.
Please look after my brother well.
You can grab a meal with your colleagues.
A gift to celebrate your appointment.
Thank you, Director Lee. I will use it well.
Goodbye, Director Lee.
