Operating on my patient without my permission?
- Get her out of there. - Yes, Doctor.
Let me ask you one thing.
What?
If she has one more shock, she will be in danger so--
I've seen a hundred times more patients than you.
How dare you talk back to me?
Dr. Jo, you can't do this.
- Oh Su-hyeon, you shut up. - You are going too far.
- How dare you-- - What do you think you're doing?
Is this how you train your doctors?
- Do you train yours by hitting them? - What?
- Listen, let's talk outside. - Let go!
- They didn't operate yet. - Let go!
- Calm down, calm down. - Get your hands off me!
- Please, calm down. - Let go!
- Calm down, please.
Are you okay?
What on earth is happening here?
I found a patient.
For our second match.
We have a patient for our match.
Take a look.
All this fuss because of that patient?
What does it look like?
Bleeding in the right coronary artery stents.
You wanted to operate on her because of that?
The bleeding isn't that serious and it might stop naturally.
- If it's not a tamponade-- - What if it is a tamponade?
That means the bleeding will not easily stop with time.
I don't think that bleeding can be treated with medication.
The internal medicine doctor decides that.
How about we decide?
You said I can choose our second patient.
So let's make her our second patient.
- Then, I win if I operate on her? - Of course.
If you operate on her and she survives.
Very good.
Dr. Han.
Let's go.
OPERATING ROOM
I'm starting to like this competition.
Maybe we should have 100 rounds.
You will lose if he operates on her.
It's about saving the patient.
Dr. Park.
Don't worry. We still have one more round.
I'll win the last round.
Right?
Bye.
Do you think you can do it?
I have to.
She might die if we don't operate on her.
Dr. Jo won't let us.
We'll ask Mr. Oh.
We'll tell him it's a complication and he'll let us operate on her.
But what if...
she really has a serious condition?
A serious condition?
It could be a case of malpractice.
What if Dr. Jo
made a very serious mistake?
How long has he been here?
Three years as a specialist.
You let a resident with just three years of experience
to do a stent surgery?
I am very sorry, Sir.
Get out.
I'm sorry, Sir.
What should we do, Sir?
If they find out that a resident conducted the surgery without consent,
they'll probably sue us.
Send him to the branch and make sure he doesn't talk.
Yes, Sir.
- The family doesn't know, do they? - They don't.
- What about the patient? - She's bleeding a little.
But it will stop with time.
It has to stop. Or it will be the end for you and our hospital.
Jae-cheol!
- What's this? - A hairpin. Come here.
How do I look?
Beautiful.
Thank you.
You have to recover so I recover.
I will.
I want everything related to you gone from my life including Hun.
- You're his mother. - I'm sick and tired of it.
Hey, Doctor.
So how is your mother doing?
Fine. But why didn't you operate on her?
We had some issues but she'll get the surgery soon.
You'll operate on her?
I might, or the chief cardiothoracic surgeon will.
- The chief? - Yes.
Doctor Han Jae-jun.
He's not the nicest guy but he's a good doctor.
I like you better.
I can see you're close to your mom.
Of course. She's my mom.
I see.
Kim Tae-sul speaking.
The prime minister asks for you.
Tell him I'm out.
Where exactly, Sir?
Tell him I'm delivering the doll. He'll know.
Hun, is that you?
Then you don't have a mother?
Not like the one you have.
What do you mean?
Never mind.
Here comes your dad.
Dad.
Here.
Gosh, you scared me.
You were quite smart.
About what?
You let Han Jae-jun operate on her.
She's just a patient that needs treatment.
If anything happens to her,
we could be sued.
The doctors in internal medicine made a huge mistake.
A resident performed the surgery that a professor should have.
I'm sorry, Sir. I can't tell you more than that.
Be honest with me and tell me one thing.
Did you
operate on that patient?
If a resident operates on a patient without the family's consent,
we will be sued and there will be nothing we can do.
- That's a big problem. - What?
What if Han Jae-jun says he won't do it?
Don't worry about that.
If he doesn't do it, we'll be winning the match.
Sometimes I'm really suspicious about your true motives.
- What motives? - Are you really a doctor?
- I'm not a patient. - You look like one.
- And with a very serious condition. - You are the patient!
The patient for the second match?
Yes, Sir.
Dr. Park made an offer and I accepted it.
I see. Who is that patient?
MEDICAL RECORDS LEE GYU-EUN
It's very simple. I'll win if my operation is successful.
Not this patient.
Then he'll win and operate on the prime minister.
Not this one.
Is it because we might be sued?
You knew about it?
And you still wanted to operate on her?
We will explain to them that there was a mistake.
Her family won't accept it so easily.
I will explain to them myself.
Explain to them? No. A threat might work better.
I've never seen anyone giving up a lawsuit after an explanation.
The patient's condition might worsen.
She might even die.
Many patients die from complications.
We can save her if we operate on her.
We can't just ignore her because we're afraid of being sued.
Her doctors can treat her.
Mr. Oh!
Let sleeping dogs lie.
If word comes out that
the operation was done by a resident and not a professor,
we will be disqualified to be the prime minister's surgery team.
We can acknowledge our mistake and explain it to them.
Then they will not sue us.
Shut it!
When you were on your knees begging, you said you'll do anything I ask.
Did you already forget that?
Why are you suddenly so interested about this patient?
I'm sorry, Sir.
- But as a doctor-- - As a doctor?
That hurts your ethics as a doctor?
Very well.
If you want it so much, she'll be the patient
for the second match.
Yes, Mr. Oh.
What?
To your office now? Yes, Sir. Okay.
I'll be there soon, Sir.
- Let's go. - Where?
Mr. Oh wants to see us.
Gosh. I don't want to see him.
What?
Just listen to me and come with me. Let's go.
Darn it.
Sir.
It's about the second match.
Yes, they've decided on it already, as far as I know, Sir.
I know.
Come with me.
You already know the condition of this patient.
- So the score is one to zero? - Yes, Sir.
As you wished,
she'll be the patient...
of your second match.
But there must be rules.
Will the success of the operation decide the winner?
No. The one that doesn't operate on her wins.
What?
The one that operates on her loses. Got it?
Dr. Han lost once.
If you operate on her, it will be your second loss.
It's two out of three. Then there will be no third round.
The competition will be over for you. Do you understand?
You have until tomorrow. If none of you operates on her,
we will choose another patient.
Are you going to operate on her?
Let's choose another patient.
So you'll just ignore this patient?
Okay, then I'll do it. Just let me use Quack.
It's not going to be a simple operation.
Doctor!
I'll be operating on your mom.
You will?
As soon as we gather the doctors that will help me.
What is it now?
- So don't worry, okay? - I won't!
- Hey! - Take it off.
What are you doing?
Go home. Take a day off.
A day off?
Stay home and take some rest until I call you.
That won't stop me.
You won't do it!
If you operate on her,
you and I are over.
Well, I have nothing to lose anyway.
Don't you need money?
You need it to bring your girlfriend here.
Well, yes.
But we will still have another round.
Never.
Just go home. Go. Now!
Come on.
If you operate on her, you'll only let Han Jae-jun win.
Her family wants me to.
This is a competition. Who cares about her family?
- This is a hospital! - Exactly!
Forget the competition. If we are sued,
it'll be the end of Myeongwoo and everyone here.
Come on, Master.
Just listen to me and go home. I'm sending you home.
What's this? Get out of the way.
Come on. Come. Hey! Taxi!
Until I call you,
stay put in your house, okay?
So when I...
What? Who are you?
Wait. Where is he? Darn it.
Jae Hui!
Dr. Han, how is your schedule today?
Dr. Park...
What is it? What happened?
That's so funny.
Hey.
Park Hun.
Dr. Park.
Your friend is so funny.
- Friend? - You forgot?
The Health Care Center in North Korea.
We both struggled to study there.
"Struggle to study."
- Let's go outside. - Yes, of course.
We should go outside and have a talk.
Wait. How did you say you call
miniskirts in North Korea?
- Torn skirts. - That's so funny.
Why did you come to the hospital?
Why?
Well, obviously
I was there to show you my support.
Wouldn't you be in trouble if you show your face everywhere?
I wouldn't go there if you're not making any trouble.
What do you mean?
That patient with the stent.
I hear the one that operates on her will lose.
I still have one more chance even if I lose.
Yes. The score will be one to one.
Things will get very interesting.
You'll have a final match.
So--
I'm not here for the fun.
I'm here to accomplish a mission.
A mission?
A mission worth a hundred times more
than the one you ruined two years ago.
Making money?
What does that have to do with the prime minister?
You'll figure that out soon enough.
Just know,
that our republic is very interested in this mission.
That's why they hired a has-been?
That has-been...
brought Song Jae Hui here.
The woman you love so much.
And I can take her back.
Dead
or alive.
You'd have killed her already if you wanted to.
Not until now.
Well,
if you want,
we can show you mercy.
Mercy?
We can let you go free.
Wouldn't that be great?
Having the woman you love
and living happily ever after
with no more worries.
No need to hide anymore.
And I will not show up again anymore either.
If you want,
we can give you enough money to live a good life.
Only if you accomplish the mission.
So don't forget.
If the mission is accomplished,
you and Song Jae Hui will enjoy a happy life together.
Dr. Han.
Do you see that?
This hospital
overcame countless obstacles to be where we are now.
One of the many obstacles
were medical accidents and going through malpractice lawsuits.
But I...
have never allowed any of the lawsuits to hurt Myeongwoo.
That is why I am still the chairman of this hospital.
And you are the successor I've chosen.
I'm sorry if I caused you to worry.
For the second match,
choose two patients you know well
so don't worry.
But don't forget.
If you want to own Myeongwoo,
you must be more than just a doctor.
CARDIOTHORACIC DEPARTMENT CHIEF HAN JAE-JUN
They said it's a simple surgery so don't worry.
It's still surgery.
You could have waited until I grew up.
What do you mean?
What? You forgot?
I told you I want to be a doctor.
Right! Yes, you told me that.
But that's okay. You'll get better.
You can get sick again after I become a doctor.
What? You wish your father gets sick?
That's okay because I'll treat him.
Okay. I'll get sick again.
So you must become a very good doctor.
Okay?
Okay, Dad.
Don't ever forget!
My father is Lee Do-seon and I am Lee Sung-hun!
Don't forget that!
Don't forget that! I will have my revenge!
If you operate on her, it will be your second loss.
It's two out of three. Then there will be no third round.
The competition will be over for you.
I have to destroy the castle. I have no choice.
I'm sorry.
Is my mom okay?
Your mom?
Mom, are you sleeping?
She keeps sleeping every time I come.
Do you want me to call the nurse and wake her up?
No.
She couldn't sleep at home ever since she got sick.
What's your name?
Jae-cheol.
Jae-cheol?
Is your name Han Jae-jun?
No.
What is it then?
Do you know Doctor Park Hun?
I do.
He mentioned you.
He did?
He said you were
a nice person and a good doctor.
He wouldn't say that.
Well, he said you aren't that nice.
But he said you're a good doctor.
Doctor Park said that
he'll operate on my mother tomorrow.
If he can't,
can you operate on her?
If he said he will, he will.
Well, I think so too, but
he tried this afternoon and he couldn't.
Please operate on her if Dr. Park can't.
Jae-cheol.
Will you?
Okay, I'll think about it.
Dr. Han won't perform the operation, will he?
He won't.
I'm worried about Dr. Park.
Why?
He's going to do it to save the patient.
He asked you to help him, right?
Not yet.
Will you help him if he asks?
I'm not sure.
Did he ask you to help him?
You know he calls me a quack.
I heard he asked you today.
That's because
he wanted to do it secretly.
I need your hands.
He is so naughty, isn't he?
I drop one strand of hair somewhere and
he says I'm getting bald and pressing my head like this.
I've never seen someone like him.
Sometimes he's so mature.
And sometimes he's a kid.
He's so unpredictable.
I guess you like him.
What?
You keep smiling when you talk about him.
No way!
Every time I think about him,
I want to punch him with my fist like this.
I don't like him.
The price of apartments in Seoul increased slightly since January.
Now it decreased 0.03% in the last few months showing a downturn.
Everything is so calm even when they threaten us with a nuclear test.
I think it's a failure this time, Sir.
A failure?
Then should we ask them to drop bombs on us?
What about the two doctors?
It might be decided today,
or the next time, Sir.
I hope they fight to the death
so that we'll have more audience.
Well, I guess we should get ready to meet the two fighters.
Yes, Sir.
MYEONGWOO UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL
PRESIDENT OF SOUTH KOREA
Things aren't like what they used to be 20 years ago.
Now even when North Korea threatens us with nuclear tests,
the people aren't in a panic anymore.
It only seems peaceful on the outside, Sir.
We still have war correspondents in the country.
But foreign investors are withdrawing their investments.
We already lost more money than the money the North Koreans asked for.
It seems like you're enjoying the crisis.
I'm sorry, Sir.
We need measures just in case.
To hold a summit, Sir.
PRESIDENT HONG CHAN-SEONG
MYEONGWOO UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL
One of those hospitals will operate on my heart.
Wasn't the chairman
of this hospital your doctor long ago?
Yes, a long time ago.
Which hospital do you prefer?
My opinion, Sir?
They are treating your heart.
I'd say...
I prefer Minguk Hospital.
Hey. I love you. I'm just practicing.
What? Is he crazy?
How can I help you?
I found it on my way here.
When do you finish?
What do you want for dinner? Japanese, Chinese, Korean, North Korean?
I think you have a great body.
I think you're a jerk.
Quite exotic as I expected.
Hey, wait.
I guess you don't know who I am.
You see, I'm quite a popular guy--
Don't do this here.
TAEKWONDO
I do know who you are. You pervert!
Well, that was quite unexpected.
Hey, wait. Wait a second.
- Hey! What are you doing here? - Oh, gosh!
Is your mother okay?
Yes.
What's that?
Breakfast for you.
That's great. I was feeling hungry.
Bye.
You'll operate on that patient?
Yes.
Is your hand okay now?
Yes, it's fine.
When are we doing it?
As soon as we have a scrub nurse and anesthetist.
You'll ask Nurse Min again?
Yes, why?
I think she's doing an afternoon shift today.
I can find you another scrub nurse.
Well...
Okay. Please do so.
- Okay. - Okay.
Dr. Park will operate on the patient with the stent?
And I need your help.
I heard the one that operates on her will lose.
Is that why you need my help?
It doesn't matter why.
Just help him...
have a successful surgery.
Okay.
Honey, have some tea.
Could you please...
change your shift to afternoon tomorrow?
MYEONGWOO UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL
Dr. Han.
Do you have an operation?
Later on.
When do you finish?
Soon. It's a simple surgery.
Call me when you finish. We'll perform an Off-pump coronary artery bypass.
So you'll operate on her?
Of course.
- But... - I'll still have a chance.
We have one more match left.
- Does he know? - You mean Cha Jin Su?
I don't care if he does.
Don't do it.
I know how you feel, but I can't ignore it.
You said you'll do anything I ask.
Let's just do what he wants.
I promised her family I'll do it.
Hun.
I can't disappoint them.
Hey, Park Hun.
What about me then?
Did I not warn you we'll have no final match?
They might sue the hospital if she dies.
Then this hospital will be disqualified from even competing.
Is that okay?
- That's none of your concern. - Please.
I will win the third match no matter how.
Just let me operate on her.
What are you doing?
Repeat after me.
I will do whatever Cha Jin Su asks.
- Don't. - That's not what I said.
Say it.
"I...
will do whatever Cha Jin Su asks."
One more time.
"I will do whatever Cha Jin Su asks."
Good.
You will do whatever I say.
Are you okay?
I'm sorry.
It's my fault.
Doctor!
My mom...
Doctor!
What happened?
We're still trying to figure out what's going on.
It might be something genetic.
Or she might be allergic to a certain medication.
Or maybe...
there was a mistake in the operation.
We perform thousands stent insertions every year.
Less than one percent shows any problem.
And most of the symptoms do not match your wife's.
I don't know who told you what,
but your distrust doesn't only hurt you,
it also affects the patient.
I'm sorry, Doctor.
- What happened? - It's none of your business.
The tamponade is causing cardiac arrest.
I will take care of it. Go away.
Doctor.
Don't worry, I will...
You'll operate on her, won't you?
Doctor.
What's wrong, Doctor?
Doctor!
Doctor.
Are you okay?
Doctor.
Doctor!
Doctor.
OPERATING ROOM
When is Dr. Park going to operate on her?
He canceled the operation.
- Why? - I'm not sure, Dr. Han.
I wonder...
will the patient
be okay?
- What happened? - She just had another cardiac arrest.
Doctor!
Jae-cheol.
Dr. Park won't do it.
Please, you have to operate on her.
You said you'll do it if Dr. Park won't.
Doctor! Please, Doctor!
Doctor! Please, help my mom!
Bring my father back! Bring him back!
Bring my father back!
Bring him back!
Doctor, please help us. Doctor!
Doctor!
Please help my mom!
Doctor, please help my mom! Doctor!
You said you would operate on her. You said you would!
- I can't. - Why?
I can't.
I can't do it.
Yes, you can do it.
You still have one more chance.
- I told you I can't. - You promised them you will.
Why won't you do it?
You are a doctor.
You have to keep your word.
Just for a while...
I was pretending to be a doctor.
- I'm not a doctor. - Cut it out.
She might die.
Do you really want to win that badly?
I can't lose.
That's why I'm not a doctor.
You bastard.
I believed
you were a doctor.
Someone different from me.
Ask everyone to come to my office.
You will operate on the patient that had the stent insertion?
As you all know,
Mr. Oh is against this operation.
I know.
You may leave now if you want.
I don't know what's going to happen to me after the operation.
I'm still a resident,
so this time I'll just--
Let me ask you one thing.
If we're fired after this,
will you take care of us?
I'll try my best.
Okay.
I'm in.
Then...
I'm in too, Dr. Han.
- Me too. - If that's the case...
let's finish it before Mr. Oh finds out.
Am I making any sense?
Let's get things ready then.
Doctor.
You will operate on her?
I knew you will, Doctor.
Is he operating on your wife?
Yes.
Victory! Yes!
Hey, it's over now.
- What's over? - Han Jae-jun is operating on her.
We win two to zero.
It will be my last surgery here.
Will you be all right?
Father will be very upset.
There are many things I can't say,
but I can tell you this.
My love for you...
was true.
Don't worry. She'll be fine.
Doctor, are you here for my mom?
Doctor. I know you'll help her.
I'm sorry.
RESTRICTED AREA
Am I still on your team?
Yes.
- What did you say? - Just like I told you, Sir.
Gosh, I'm sorry Dr. Han
doesn't really know how you feel.
So he dared to go against my orders?
Hey, Dr. Oh.
It's okay.
That's your place, Dr. Geum.
Are we ready?
Scalpel.
Mr. Oh.
I know it already, so shut it.
Come on. It's not my fault.
Dr. Han, Mr. Oh is here.
Focus here and prepare for the next step.
- But... - Now!
Put him on the phone!
Stop it right now!
I will let her family know what really happened and apologize.
- Shut your mouth! - Stop the operation right now!
They can't stop now.
Stop now and I will forgive you. Stop!
- I will finish this operation. - You will finish this?
Very well. All of you listen carefully.
Come out of there
or you'll never practice again.
- What are you so afraid of? - You shut it!
If we let her family know what happened and apologize,
they will not sue us.
I have never seen such a case!
Because we never apologized truly!
For money and status,
we neglected those
who lost their parents and children.
Shut your mouth!
I will show you...
how wrong you are.
Dr. Han!
Stay focused and continue.
Cheer up.
Stay focused!
Traction.
- Dr. Han. - Stop the bleeding first.
Suction.
Please, Doctor.
Open a disciplinary committee if she dies during the operation.
And what will be the agenda, Mr. Oh?
He operated on someone else's patient!
Then will it be for the failure to follow your orders?
Prepare for a lawsuit as well.
- A lawsuit? - Yes.
Let her family know the truth like he wants to.
Tell them he killed the patient during the operation.
He will be responsible for everything, understood?
Yes, Sir.
Hey!
Watch your step.
- Where are you going? - Why do you want to know?
- We need more blood! - Blood! More blood!
- Suction. - Yes.
Vital signs?
The blood pressure keeps going down.
- Did you find it? - I can't see very well.
Stay calm.
But Sir,
I said stay calm!
Dr. Geum.
May I?
Don't lower your heads like you did something wrong.
You didn't do anything wrong.
Those up there should lower their heads. Look.
That's right. Feel proud of yourselves.
You are the only true doctors in this hospital.
