Do you really want me to leave?
I never want to see you again.
I met him again.
I had no idea we'd meet again like this.
Come to think about it, it was like that from the start.
We met by chance and ended up inseparable.
Now, we're destined for each other.
(Final episode)
Are you okay?
I'm fine.
Your mum is embarrassing me.
You should've checked into a hospital when I told you to.
This wouldn't have happened if you had checked in right away.
Let me check you.
Forget it. Some other time.
Prof. Hong.
How are you?
What's going on here?
What are you doing here?
Do you know her?
Of course I do. She's the girl who...
She's my friend.
- What? - We're friends.
We should take him to the ward.
Yes, let's.
We'll send him to the VIP Room.
What is going on here?
This is our hospital. Dad and I work here.
I'd like you to watch your manners.
We'll take you upstairs.
No. I'll walk.
- Where are my shoes? - At home.
- Get me some slippers. - Yes, Sir.
Does your head hurt?
Poor you.
(Jin Myung Hoon)
How is he?
The tumour's the same.
His brain is fine.
It was the sleeping pill, then.
He isn't my patient. Why did you call me?
I thought you were the ideal choice.
Shouldn't Dr Jung take this?
President Jin assigned you to Neurosurgery yesterday.
I haven't talked to him yet.
I did.
Keep him hydrated.
Okay.
I don't want Prof. Hong to operate.
It's not like there aren't any other doctors.
There's Yoon Do. Or we can go to America.
Letting Prof. Hong do it is our best bet.
That's not the best bet.
We had him flown in from America. Why should we go abroad?
It hurts my pride.
Is your pride more important than Dad's surgery?
I can't believe we'd meet again.
And like this?
We checked your CT and MRI.
There were no changes.
Why are you here and not Prof. Hong?
Do you want him to operate on you?
Who else is there?
Why did you call me over? Did you know I was reinstated?
No, but I called you because you're the best.
That's nice to hear.
Were you aware of the president's condition?
No, I realised the severity only just now.
It looks bad.
It is. Even if we operate, he might not regain full health.
Why don't you want to operate?
We were at odds until a while ago.
He won't feel comfortable around me.
It's wrong to do it just because I'm good.
(Dr Kim Tae Ho)
Hello?
Come on in.
I'll let you two talk.
Stay with us.
I'll leave so the doctor and patient can...
break down walls or build a higher one.
See me when you're done.
Thank you.
For what?
For calling Prof. Hong.
I made the best call as a doctor.
You hate my dad.
I don't like him, but he's a patient.
I must put my emotions aside.
I can't stay objective.
He's my dad.
I know he hurt you,
but he means a lot to me.
There's a tumour on cervical vertebra 3 and 4.
We'll need to do a biopsy to be sure,
but we suspect it's an ependymoma.
That grows in the cells that produce cerebrospinal fluid...
in the cerebral ventricle?
It can also grow in the myelocoele.
Your tumour...
is in a very dangerous spot.
I know.
We have to operate before it gets bigger.
What'll happen then?
It could threaten your life.
How will you operate?
The tumour's inside the spinal nerve.
We have to go in through the back.
Going inside will cause some damage.
Even if we succeed,
it might damage your nerves...
and your proprioceptive senses.
If we prick a spinal artery,
it could cause paralysis.
Let's do it soon.
Are you sure I can do it?
Yes.
I trust you as a surgeon.
There's one problem.
What is it?
My assistant is Dr Yoo.
I can't do this surgery...
without her help.
Are you trying to torment me by making this personal?
It's a risky operation,
and Dr Yoo and I have worked as a team.
That increases the success rate.
As a doctor, I want all my patients to live.
Mr Yoo Min Ho?
- Come in, please. - Thanks.
I was so glad that...
you called first.
I went to see Grandmother a while ago.
Did you? I should too.
I haven't been able to.
Can we go together next time?
Why did you settle after she died?
Did you move her to a nicer place because you felt guilty?
There was nothing I could do at the time.
I didn't know where to start.
I asked to see the records, and I read them.
What could I have done with them, though?
They made no sense to me.
Lawsuits would've taken too long.
You shouldn't have taken the money, then.
Who would benefit from that?
Only the hospital would.
What should I have done?
We needed to move on and live.
It infuriates me too.
But that was the best I could do.
I don't feel any pity for you.
Most parents and kids can't think objectively about each other.
But I just don't have any good memories of you.
It's strange.
I don't like you,
but when I heard you were ill, I felt concerned.
If you're sick and struggling,
I might want to help you.
If that's not the case,
I don't think we should meet.
I want to start a family.
I didn't think I'd be able to...
until I sorted things out with you.
Are you getting married?
I will one day.
I doubt I'll invite you.
Look after yourself.
I'm sorry.
As your dad, I failed to...
look after you.
I made your life a mess.
Thanks for apologising.
I'll try hard not to get sick.
Be happy.
Wait outside. I want to see someone.
That's fine. I won't stop you.
Who can't you see if I'm around?
You embarrassed me.
You caused a huge fuss when I could've come in quietly.
Come in.
Did you want me to leave so you could talk to her?
You always leave me out. Why didn't you tell me...
that both of them are at this hospital?
I'm a patient right now.
I see that you've become successful.
How did you become a doctor?
I told you to stop.
Okay, fine.
You heard from Prof. Hong, right?
I'm not sure what you're referring to.
He needs to do my surgery,
and he's insisting that you must assist him in it.
- I will not do it. - I'm glad we're on the same page.
I'll be too anxious if you're the assistant surgeon.
Go and let Prof. Hong know.
I will. I'll also ask Chief Kang to be your doctor.
That'd be great.
(Yoon Do)
Why aren't you answering your phone?
- Do I have to? - Not really.
Are you all prepared for Patient Kim Ji Young's surgery?
Yes. I just need to go in.
- Your father... - He has a bad bugger.
The location of the tumour is too dangerous.
How did it grow on his neck?
I heard that Prof. Hong will do his surgery.
No, it hasn't been decided yet.
I honestly can't understand this.
Nerves that affect the entire body pass through the neck, you know.
If they're damaged in any way...
I'm getting a very bad feeling.
I cannot live without my dad.
Grandpa has to go to trial too.
What should I do?
Everything will go well.
I'll help you.
Dr Jung, you were here.
I'll see you later.
How exactly do you feel about Seo Woo?
Why do I have to answer that question?
I'm her friend,
and I was the one by her side when she was heartbroken by you.
I think that I deserve to hear the answer from you.
You're being so very polite to me right now.
Have you had feelings for her since you were in school together?
Is that why you've been keeping distance from me?
I did like her as a friend.
Not any more, though.
I'm like her older brother.
If you two end up going out,
I approve of it.
Be good to her. And feel free to come to me when you're stressed.
- You're way too cool. - Not at all.
You're cool because you look for love...
and try to protect the one you love.
I'm sure you already know this,
but Seo Woo isn't mentally tough.
See you later.
- Oh, my. This one looks so alike. - I know.
Brown Bear says, "Bad Doctor, you're the best!"
KJ says, "This is boring. Get lost."
This psycho...
The feedback isn't good. KJ says that it's boring.
I think it's someone I know.
This bloke keeps posting ridiculous comments.
Isn't it you? KJ.
- Kyung Joon. - No.
It's really not me. Am I the only one with those initials?
It could be any name from Kwang Ju, Kyeong Ju and Kook Ja to Kyung Joon.
Yes! Kyung Joon!
You just confessed to it. Goodness.
Yes, it's me. How did you know? Was it that obvious?
What is the matter with you, seriously?
I was worried about it taking off and you ditching this career.
Gosh, you're so silly.
I love creating webtoons, but it's just my hobby.
My dream is becoming a surgeon.
Don't worry about stupid things, and please don't do this.
Okay, I heard you.
- I heard you - I heard you
Kang Soo.
- How's the spasm? - The spasm...
- The medication took care of it. - Thank goodness.
You're checking in so often. Are you doing this for other patients too?
Yes, I am.
You know that President Jin is at the VIP ward now, right?
Yes. I'm the one who called you from the emergency room.
- Stop talking back to me already. - Oh, sorry.
By the way, will President Jin be able to keep his position?
He'll probably be dismissed when we have a new chairman.
No one has his back any more.
Hello.
What's up? Did you guys gossip again?
I'm sure you did, judging from how you stopped talking suddenly.
No.
- Where's Yeong Gook? - He's in the night duty room.
- Yeong Gook. - Yes.
I'm hungry.
Then why did you come find me instead of going to the cafeteria?
You're right. Why did I look for you when I'm hungry?
- What is it? - Just stay still.
I won't bite you.
You can't even eat anything. Why did you say you were hungry?
Why did you leave like that earlier?
I thought you and Dr Jung had things to talk about.
We just console each other in difficult times.
- When he got dumped by girls... - You don't need to explain.
Is there anything I don't know about you?
Let's get out of here.
Seo Woo.
As I've always told you,
I'm right by your side.
Aren't I right?
Yes, you are.
You've always been there for me.
But what should we do now?
I've changed.
I think it all started at that moment...
when I did what I wasn't allowed to do to you.
Ever since then,
you've been on my heart.
I'm not sure when you walked into my heart.
But when I found out about my dad,
you were the first person I wanted to turn to.
Everything...
is going to be fine.
I know this is late, but congratulations.
Welcome back to Neurosurgery.
What are all these?
I bought them for you. Don't forget to take them home.
You know how I like to focus on one thing. I decided to change, though.
I want to try multitasking.
- So am I your guinea pig? - Yes.
Your loving girlfriend, Soon Hee's caring friend...
and the residents' cool senior colleague.
Will you really be able to handle it all?
I won't go into President Jin's surgery, though.
So to summarise, you're saying,
"I'm really stressed out about President Jin's surgery."
"I can't stop thinking about it, so I'll try to disperse my attention."
- How did you figure it out? - I'm your man, you know.
You're telling me exactly what I want to hear.
I can't do that surgery if you don't assist me.
Why?
I don't feel confident.
I didn't know there are things that you don't feel confident about.
There are. It's a difficult surgery,
and I'm stressing out because there are a lot of risks.
I'm worried about putting the patient at risk.
I haven't gotten around to forgive President Jin.
Hence, I cannot assist you.
I have to go to the ICU now. I'm sorry.
How is she?
Her blood sugar level was 250 so I gave her an insulin shot.
But the cortisol concentration is a bit high.
What did the gynaecologists say?
They said it might be temporary, so we need to keep an eye on it.
Okay.
I sincerely apologise.
I made the decision not for myself but for you, Sir.
Not choosing to operate on me is for me? Does it make sense?
Do you think I wanted you to operate on me because I like you?
I know. I am looking for another surgeon for you.
Can't you come within this month?
Nothing good will come from delaying it.
Okay then.
Please find out when Prof. Oh will be coming in from the US.
Okay.
Prof. Lee can't make it?
He can't. And Prof. Oh is away on seminar.
How about Prof. Song Hae Jin?
Prof. Song fought with President Jin and left the hospital.
He won't be able to do it.
What do we do?
Can't you just do it?
I think I have to do the president's job too.
Besides, the administrative work made me lose my touch.
Gosh.
Does it make sense that he can't operate without that Hye Jung girl?
He should just say he doesn't want to do it. That's such a lame excuse.
That's not true.
The two of them almost had never failed a surgery.
Hye Jung is a talented surgeon.
What does the assistant matter anyway? The surgeon is what matters.
Assistants are important.
No matter how big the surgery is, small mistakes can kill the patient.
She's so meticulous. So is Prof. Hong.
Getting those two to operate on you is the best option for you.
Never mind. Dr Kim is looking for another surgeon.
I can get another person.
What brings you here at this hour?
I thought we should postpone the surgery.
The doctors can't work around your schedule.
Did you find the right ones in the first place?
I understand that you are sensitive, but please don't cross the line.
Perhaps you want me to die?
- Dad. - It's all right.
Let's talk again later.
Do you want me to prescribe you some sleeping pills?
Never mind. I sleep just fine.
Gosh, I'm so upset. How did this happen?
Why do bad things happen all at once?
Father has to get investigated by the prosecution in two days!
Why are you so talkative? You're annoying me.
Go home if you are going to annoy me like that.
I am not even allowed to talk now?
- You get annoyed at everything. - Be quiet!
Does it hurt?
Oh dear.
(Jin Seo Woo)
- Hello? - Where are you?
Can I see you now?
I'm sorry to barge in at this hour.
It's all right. Have a seat.
So this is where you live with Soon Hee.
- Where is Soon Hee? - She'll come home soon.
It's herb tea. Is this okay?
Yes.
Hye Jung.
Can you join...
my father's surgery?
Prof. Hong refused to do it,
so we're looking for a different doctor, but it's not looking good.
But President Jin won't like it.
I can persuade him.
Try persuading Prof. Hong.
Kyung Joon or Yeong Gook can assist him.
I want you to do it.
Only then I will feel reassured.
I am sorry.
Please.
Why are you alone?
I sent everyone home. They were irritating me.
Don't be like that.
Family is what you need the most at times like this.
Why did you come so late?
I kept trying to come.
But because my body and my body were sagged, I couldn't.
How can a parent be comfortable when a child is not well?
I can't sleep.
Father.
How did you get that darn thing in you?
Even after the surgery, I won't be able to live a normal life.
I might not be able to walk or even speak.
I am scared to death.
You just have to come through.
You will soon get used to not being able to move well.
So stop worrying.
But I can't stop thinking that I might die.
I think I'm going to die in the surgery.
I don't want to die, Father.
You are not dying!
How dare you say that in front of your father?
You won't die.
I won't let you die, Son.
I have no doubt that my doctor will do a good job.
My doctor is handsome and smart.
I trust him.
(Gukil Medical Center)
Yes, Kyung Joon.
President Jin is having a migraine.
Okay.
He hasn't taken any special drug or food.
Where is the migraine and how serious is the pain?
My head feels tight, and I feel like it's going to burst.
We will take another CT scan just in case.
- Give him some pain killer. - Yes, Professor.
Tell me if there's anything else.
You're not even my doctor.
Tell Yoon Do to take care of me until the surgery is scheduled.
That can't be done according to the hospital policy.
I will take care of you until you get the surgery.
Stop playing the hypocrite and leave me.
You're just letting me die.
Gosh.
Hello, Dr Yoo. You are beautiful and I admire you.
- Where have you been? - I ran an errand.
It's what I have to do as a secretary.
- Let's go. - Okay.
Which floor are you going? The station?
- No, the VIP patient room. - I see.
By the way, why are you going there?
Do I have to report to you?
No. Of course not.
Hey.
What brings you here?
I came to meet President Jin.
I want to join the surgery if that's what he wants.
Why?
I'm a doctor. I do what the patient wants.
I'm glad to hear that.
I might get rejected.
Still, I will give it a try.
President Jin.
Why did you come here?
I want to assist Prof. Hong on your surgery.
What?
I'll join the surgery and do my best to assist the operating surgeon.
Take out "the best" part.
Don't be sarcastic.
You're going to cut my vein during the surgery, aren't you?
And you're going to say you did your best.
Why do you think so?
I'm going crazy right now.
Do you think I deserved this?
I think you deserved it.
I did nothing wrong.
I looked at your MRI and CT scans again.
Because the tumour is inside the spinal nerves,
so we have to open the posterior column to enter.
I know that too.
When we open it and go in,
I will try my best not to damage the nerves.
It seemed that you are quite talented.
I did some research...
when I was digging up your past.
Do you know what my grandma's last words were...
before she went into surgery?
My doctor will know best what to do.
I trust him.
When I think about it,
she must have been at peace when she passed away...
because she trusted you.
She believed that she'd wake up...
and live a healthy life.
You gave my grandma...
that trust as a doctor...
and allowed her to go into surgery with a light heart.
I thank your for that.
You are my patient,
and this surgery is necessary. I want to save your life.
I want to save you...
and see you thank me.
I'll show myself out.
Tell Prof. Hong...
to schedule my surgery as soon as possible.
Hand me the retractor.
The tumour is in the spinal nerve, so they have to open the spine.
It's highly difficult.
It's dangerous, and he could lose sense in his limbs, couldn't he?
- Yes, do you follow Joong Dae? - I'll look into it.
(Operating Room)
Bring me my gown.
Hand me the pliers.
Let's begin.
I need wound irrigation.
Clean that area, please.
They cut the back of the spinal cord from C2 to C5 vertebrae, right?
Yes.
Don't touch the inner part of the vertebrae artery.
Bipolar forceps.
- It's going well. - They barely touched it.
- It's stuck too firmly. - I see it.
The tumour is too close to the spinal cord.
They have no choice but to touch the nerve to get rid of it.
I asked Prof. Hong to do the surgery to keep that from happening.
We're almost there.
They've removed it.
Yes, it's over.
He's bleeding.
That's inevitable to get rid of the tumour because it was close.
They can't avoid touching the nerve this time.
I need cottonoid.
Doctor.
I see it. Give me a second.
Biopsy.
Why won't the bleeding stop?
This is causing neural damage.
Cottonoid.
Will he be able to move when he wakes up?
Why won't the bleeding stop?
Let's wait and watch.
The signals are weird.
There's nothing we can do. We have to stop the bleeding fist.
There.
Good job.
They did it.
The difficult part is over.
Good job, Dr Yoo.
Thanks.
President Jin will live. Let's wrap up.
(Operating Room)
The surgery went well. We got rid of the tumour.
We'll have to wait until he wakes up to say more...
because there was neural damage.
We'll move him to a hospital room.
Thank you. Thank you, Prof. Hong.
You're welcome. I'd better get going.
He's alive.
Your dad is alive.
Your coffee is here!
Thank you, Dr Choi. I mean Secretary Choi.
He's now Secretary Choi.
What's so exciting?
- Have this, Prof. Hong. - What is it?
It's iced americano. Kang Soo bought it.
The Department of Neurosurgery feels normal now that you're back.
Let's have a welcome back party since the surgery went well.
That sounds good.
It's not like I'm a newbie.
Professor, please.
All of us have been down lately. Let's go for just one beer.
Dr Yoo can come with us too.
That's right! We can go if she comes with us, right?
Everyone will go if I join? Where are we going?
Let's go out for beer.
Oh, right. You can't go, Chief.
- Why not? - You're on night duty today
Darn it.
Shall we go for drinks, then?
- Yes! - Yes!
Right, I can't. Darn it.
It's hot, so you get a cup of hot coffee.
Thank you. Am I really on night duty today?
- You are. - Dear me.
- We're on duty. Let's do our best! - Let's do our best!
Doctor!
This is called the upper backspin elbow strike.
And this is...
a high kick.
Yoon Do, your uncle is here.
Darn it.
What are you doing all by yourself?
Well, I like being alone.
Are you being bullied or what?
Ji Hong went out for drinks with people from your department.
I guess they didn't even tell you.
They did. I chose not to go.
How am I going to bear watching her right by Prof. Hong's side?
I'm a human too.
What do you like so much about Dr Yoo?
I can't pinpoint it. I just like everything about her.
I don't feel so lonely not having my feelings reciprocated.
Thinking about her while I'm with another woman will feel more lonely.
Goodness. One-sided love isn't really love.
Don't belittle my feelings.
When it comes to anything that has the word "love",
doing it is better than not doing it at all.
Let's make a toast.
- For what? - Well...
For Prof. Hong's return.
- That's a good one. - I like that.
Let's play Truth or Dare after that.
Goodness, you sound so old. What year were you born?
Old?
Gosh, that game is ancient.
Professor, how long have you and Dr Yoo been going out for?
Are you drunk?
I'm sorry.
- Yes. - Dr Yoo.
Patient Lee Hee Young's water broke.
When did it happen? Call Gynaecology right away. I'll be there soon.
- Patient Lee Hee Young? - Yes.
- Wait. - Dr Yoo.
What's happening? Are they leaving us?
They pursue the perfect combination of work and love.
Our Jin Jin!
Oh, that's right. Jin Jin.
- Let's hurry. - Goodness.
Stop eating already! Come on!
You guys can't just leave like that!
Goodness, Joong Dae! Ahn Joong Dae!
They didn't even pay.
My gosh.
Silly guy.
(Operating Room)
This is Yoo Hye Jung.
Hello, Doctor.
Your wife's water broke.
We're starting her cesarean section.
(Operating Room)
That's Jin Jin!
- Oh, my. - How adorable!
Jin Jin.
- Number 3! - Number 3!
Gosh, Jin Jin is so cute.
Don't you want to have a baby too?
You sound crazy.
We should transfer the patient to the ICU.
Yes.
(Gukil Medical Center, Name: Lee Hee Young's baby)
(Neurosurgery, Kang Kyung Joon)
- Yes. - Dr Yoo.
Patient Lee Hee Young's vitals are dropping.
Okay.
Mr Kim, we don't have much time.
- Did you call her? - Yes.
Why aren't they coming?
What if he doesn't get to see her during her final moments?
I love you, Hee Young.
Time of death.
2:15am.
Patient Lee Hee Young...
passed away.
I think Hee Young saw her husband during her final moments.
It could be just my imagination,
but I saw her smile.
(Congratulations, President Kim Tae Ho)
I'm the newly appointed president, Kim Tae Ho.
I think that Gukil Medical Center is now at the crossroads...
between growth and taking a brief stop.
We've been running ceaselessly to get here.
Now, we should stop for a while to reassess where we are now...
and to find out where we should be headed.
Why do hospitals exist?
For whom is it and with whom should it coexist?
How should we approach and resolve practical issues at hand?
I'll become a president who thinks about these things...
and works them through with all of you here.
Thank you.
(Inaugural Ceremony for the 4th President, Kim Tae Ho)
Why is he still unconscious?
Hi, Dr Jin.
He hasn't exhibited any motor ability in his four limbs.
Honey!
- Dad! - Myung Hoon!
He's moving his finger.
He may undergo rehabilitation now.
Thank goodness.
This week has been too long. I am too tired.
Are you taking the supplements well?
I shouldn't have said it.
Don't think of it as nagging. Your health matters the most.
- What are you doing this weekend? - What I always do.
Should we go fishing?
Father must think this.
When he asked you to go with him, you refused.
But now that he can't go with you, you are desperate to go fishing.
Father. You called him father.
That's right. I called him father.
I will catch all the fish for him.
Okay!
(President Jin Myung Hoon)
I am on the way.
You go first. I have to see someone first.
Who?
- President Jin Myung Hoon. - I will wait.
- Have a seat. - I am okay.
You're getting the rehabilitation training, right?
I am getting it.
Thank you.
Thank you too.
Thank you for surviving through the surgery...
and showing me that you're recovering.
What are you doing?
Will you marry me?
I should be the one to put the ring on your finger.
It's mine, so I should wear it.
That's not romantic though. You wanted it to be romantic,
so I prepared this.
I love you.
Gosh.
I was going to create sweet atmosphere and make good memories.
- Can you call me now? - Call you now?
(Hong Hong Hong)
- Hong Hong Hong. Is that me? - Yes.
Why?
Whenever I see you, I can't stop saying, "hong hong hong".
What is that?
Just "hong hong hong".
It sounds strange.
You have to smile when you say it, right?
Yes.
I'm embarrassed.
I don't know since when I loved him.
I don't know since when I started loving him,
but I've been loving him all along.
When you meet the one,
you forget when your love started.
(Thank you for watching Doctors.)
