- Episode 19 - Can you please tell me,
why did you push back my father's surgery that time?
I asked you why you pushed back his surgery that time?
At that time, the hospital said that they would compensate for it.
Why? Is there something more?
That time, it is said that the damage that your
son had caused was around $200,000 dollars.
Yes, around that much.
Fourteen years ago, $200,000 dollars was a lot of money.
Did they let that slide and compensated it?
We did go through a police investigation,
but all of a sudden we got a call.
They said they won't charge us and dropped the charges.
All of a sudden? Without a reason or a plan?
I don't know. Maybe it was because my husband died in the hospital,
or because my child was young.
Anyway, it happened that way.
That is everything I know.
I see.
Okay, I understand.
I ate the food well.
- Ah, Right. Your son's name is... - Pardon?
Kang Dong Joo, right?
He was transferred from Geodae Hospital to Doldam hospital.
Do you know what the easiest things to do in the world are?
To break relationships.
There, you do not need any effort or money.
One word is enough.
You are being deceived right now.
That time, the patient whose surgery was pushed back for a VIP patient...
was my father.
Did you know that?
Yes, I remember clearly.
I was on duty that day, and two patients with cardiac infarctions
arrived in 5 minutes interval.
Then...
the person who ignored my father,
and decided to perform the surgery on the VIP patient,
was not Director Do,
but you, Master?
That's right.
I decided on that surgery.
The chances of dying for the car accident patient
was increasing by one percent an hour, due to an aortic dissection.
The chances of dying for the patient with the cardiac infarction
would be of 99% in an hour.
A patient whose chances of dying increased each hour,
arrived 5 minutes later. If it were you,
which patient would you choose, Kang Dong Joo?
It wasn't because he was VIP.
I made the decision based on the gravity of the situation.
That is the truth.
Dr. Yoon, did you call Dr. Yang?
Ah, yes.
He will be here in 10 minutes.
Assign the colitis patient to Dr. Yang, and the aortic dissection patient to Dr. Nam.
I understand. I will let them know.
Can you hold a scalpel in that state?
If you don't have the confidence, just give it to Do In Bum.
I will do it.
I said I will perform it.
Really? Can you do it?
Don't worry about me.
Just don't lose the aortic dissection patient.
Dr. Kang...
Alright.
Then.
Head nurse, can you follow him?
I will ask this favor of you.
I understand.
Are you okay, Kang Dong Joo?
Father? Father!
How can it be? How can it be?
- Cut. - Cut.
I'm only here for romantic ideals.
- Good job. - Pardon?
How can it be possible?
Kang Dong Joo, I'm asking if you are okay.
I will finish the surgery first.
I will think about it after I finish the surgery.
Whether I am fine or not.
We will monitor the advancement of necrosis
and see whether we will remove the stomy or not;
based on what we see once we open his intestines.
Scalpel.
CHAPTER 19: Doctor and righteous doctor.
What are you doing just letting an injured patient lie like that?
There are a couple of urgent patients right now, so...
My husband has glass sticking out of his abdomen!
There is more urgent cases than this right now?!
Yes, I understand your position. But the ER,
doesn't decide who gets a surgery first.
If you aren't going to do the surgery, then transfer him to another hospital.
There is no hospital that can do the surgery in an hour and a half.
We were here over an hour!
Dr. Kang, there is a call from Dr. Moon at the ER.
What is the issue Sunbae?
Oh, Dr. Kang Dong Joo, how long do you think the surgery will take?
- Why? - There is a patient with an abdomen penetrating injury.
The guardian is really angry.
She's saying that the order of surgery is unfair,
Can you do it quickly or something?
I told you to tell them there are more urgent patients right now.
I did give her that explanation, but she is still really mad right now.
Even if I do it as quickly as I can, it will still take an hour.
Since you just started, I guess that is true. I understand.
Oh my gosh, I can't believe it.
Dr. Kang, don't rush and take your time.
If Master Kim finishes more quickly, he will be able to do it.
No, I will do it.
We will need to cut it from here to here I believe.
I will do it quickly. Bovie.
Pads.
Where is it?
I think I touched the mesenteric artery. Hemostat.
I will try to stop it with the hemostat so please get the tie ready.
Doctor, Dr. Jung from the ER is asking about the progression of your surgery.
The abdominal penetrating patient's guardian seems to be complaining as well.
Pump one.
Tie.
Doctor?
Cut.
Okay, now what happens next?
We wait until the body temperature goes down and perform a circulatory arrest.
Okay, now we wait until the temperature falls below 24 degrees.
Okay.
I don't think that Master Kim will finish on time.
He usually hates when people interrupt his surgeries.
Is that so?
Does the situation make sense to you?
Until when will he be like that?
I am going crazy really.
Really...
Why the heck can't you find it?
I found it.
Tie.
- Cut. - Cut.
I will release the hemostatic now.
- There is no bleeding. - Are his vitals okay?
The heart rate picked up a little bit.
It's okay, let's continue.
I will now perform a functional end to end anastomosis.
GIA.
Now we are going to start the arrest. We aren't doing a selective perfusion today,
so we need to finish within 30 minutes.
Pump off.
GIA again.
Knife.
Suction. Metzenbaum scissors.
Specimen.
Right angle clamp. One more please.
Graft.
Cut.
- Cut. - Cut
Cut.
Please prepare the hemovac drain.
Irrigation.
Cut.
Okay. Now clamp.
- Pump slowly. - I'll insert the hemovac drain and wrap this up.
Full flow. Increase the body temperature.
It took 28 minutes, Doctor.
Today you didn't disappoint us either, Dr. Kang Dong Joo.
We will finish in 10 minutes. Then move on to the abdomen penetrating patient.
Please tell the ER to prepare the next patient.
Okay.
- Cut. - Cut.
Yoon Seo Jung, we have prepared the proximal so you come try to suture it.
What? Do you mean me?
It will take awhile for the temperature to rise, so take your time.
Slow and accurately.
I will assist you, so come here.
Prolene number 4.
- Cut. - Cut.
Good, now try releasing and take off the clamp.
Clamp off.
You did well.
Timing and subtitles brought to you by The Romantic Doctors ♡ @ Viki
The surgery went well.
The necrosis happened due to clogged intestines,
so we cut out around 30 cm of it.
That much?
We will look after him closely and give him medicine.
Thank you. Excuse me...
But the surgery was still successful, right?
Yes.
But when I signed the surgery agreement I saw that
the surgery would take around 2 hours or
longer, but you came out a little earlier...
You came out an hour and a half earlier, so maybe...
The surgery time doesn't affect the results.
I did my best.
And there was no complications in the surgery.
Thank you so much.
It will be alright I guess.
There are more
patients who have surgery here than I thought.
Did you not know?
Huh?
This hospital, in this town,
is quite popular.
There are many skilled doctors and
sometimes let you pay on credit...
That's why...
Elder? You got a heart surgery correct?
Hm?
How did you know?
My heart isn't good as well,
so I know.
On the CT, there is no severe bowel injury, so we only need to suture him.
Okay.
We will start now. Scalpel.
Ah, it looks so good.
[MOTHER]
Hello?
Hello? Is this not Kang Dong Joo's phone?
This is his phone.
Hello, I am Yoon Seo Jung.
So you are the Seo Jung Sunbae, right?
Ah, right now, Kang Dong Joo is in the middle of surgery. Is it something urgent?
No, it's not like that or anything.
Our Dong Joo is fine, right?
Of course, he is fine.
Then, that's fine.
- It was just a long time since I called him and all. - I see.
Oh, right! The side dishes that I dropped off last time, did you eat them all?
Oh, the side dishes and kimchi? It was eaten some time ago.
Actually, it was so good, I almost ate it all.
I'm sorry, Mother.
I mean, Ahjumoni.
Oh no, Mother?
I am so sorry, I'm not sure what to call you that's why.
Of course, you have to call me Mother.
Ahjumoni is a little... awkward, right?
Right? Ahjumoni is a bit weird. Right, Mother?
Should I send more side dishes?
Really? I really ate the salted eel well.
Really? What else?
The anchovies side dishes and the seafood stir fry, too!
Do you like steamed beans, too?
Oh my, of course.
Gangwon's corn are quite famous, should I send you some?
I feel bad for just receiving the food...
[DONG JOO DUMPLINGS]
Is that the reason you helped me that time, too?
I'm talking about the day I tore down the ER.
Because you knew I was the son of the patient that died
because you pushed his surgery so you were kind enough
to treat me that nicely?
What do you want to hear from me?
Did you, even once, ever regret
your decision that day?
Either way, someone died because of your decision. Even once...
did you regret it?
Seeing a patient dying in front of your eyes and a patient you're not sure about,
even if a lot of time has passed,
I made the choice without thinking.
I see.
Then why do I still feel this way?
I understand in my head where you are coming from,
but why do I feel like I have been deceived still?
As I doctor, I...
I understand the freaking situation.
But as a son, I...
Why am I still so angry?
That is not a question that you should ask me, but you should ask yourself.
You shouldn't be weakened by your father's death.
You are a doctor.
Timing and subtitles brought to you by The Romantic Doctors ♡ @ Viki
Yes.
Why did you talk like that to Kang Dong Joo?
- Hm? - You didn't know the dissection patient
had come in first. You didn't know and just went into the VIP patient's surgery.
Even if I knew,
my decision would have been the same.
If I told him I didn't know, even now,
it wouldn't help him at all. He will only hear it as an excuse.
What if that rascal goes crazy?
He is finally becoming useful and all.
Goodae University Hospital
These are the contents of the articles from the advertisement department.
Okay, you can leave.
Okay, I understand.
Goodae Hospital first to succeed in replacing
artificial heart with another artificial heart
Wow... the director is just
he betrayed us like this...
Director, director, look at this. Director Do just..
Does this make any sense?
Goodae Hospital first to succeed in replacing
artificial heart with another artificial heart
Sorry, we are not opened yet.
It's been a long time. Do you remember me?
Who are you?
I am Reporter Oh. I was responsible for the
article on Jang Hyun Joo's death 14 years ago.
That surgery was actually done by Dr. Boo Yong Joo
But the article is really weird no? He did the
surgery, but he name is not even mentioned in there.
14 years ago, every single mistake was blamed on Boo Yong Joo.
But now, you can't find that name anywhere.
What do you think about it?
I don't have anything to say.
I will not write an article. I don't have a recording device,
or will not write it. Just
I want to know what has happened then.
What the truth is.
Why is that important? The most important is to block the rumours.
Because rumours about the chairman keeps circling,
because, telling them that is was done in the Doldam hospital is a bit...
But even so, you treat Master Kim's surgery like this?!
Don't be so upset Director Yeo, other than Boo
Yong Joo's name, the other staff's names are
placed in the article. I am thinking of arranging an interview for them.
If the conditions meet as well, I am seriously
considering of bringing them to the main hospital.
Then I will hang up. I am a little busy.
What does this mean? Bringing them there? Then what will happen to this hospital?
In one word, we are doomed.
I am saying that! The surgery was done by Master Kim, and the
credit is taken by that hospital, isn't it?
Our Master Kim's raised children, they want to take them all!
Don't we need to do something at all?
- How - For now we tell Master Kim and-
He knows this.
He know this? What did he say?
Ah, just leave them be.
How can we just leave them? We did the work
and they get the credit!
Oh what is the worry?
Anyways we already are overflowing with patients here.
And we don't even have enough beds in the ER anyways.
Master Kim!
As I live, do you know what's the best decision I made?
Leaving my name, Boo Yong Joo.
After releasing that name, I feel less burderned.
After releasing that success, I feel more relaxed.
I just like living this way.
But Master Kim!
All of us?
All of your have been invited.
The Director wants to meet everyone who participated in that surgery,
so everyone come.
Even Master Kim?
Even if Director Do wants Master Kim to come...
do you think Master Kim will go, of course not.
Then I will not go. I don't have a reason to go. Then.
I didn't even participate in the surgery. I will leave now.
Well anyways, the main characters are here. All of you are going right?
Chief then I,
Yes, Dr. Jung, you look after the ER while these people are away okay?
Okay.
I think it will be difficult for me to go too. I
have a lot of patients waiting for surgery so.
Hey, Dong Joo. How can you not go huh?
Me too, I don't think I have time to meet him.
Look here, Dr. Yoon Seo Jung. You can't be like this too.
Oh, by change, Dr. Do In Beom... you too?
Nobody is going.. so do you expect me to go? Father will not like that either... so.
Ah, it can't be like this. Wait!
Chief!
Am I not a person?
When can I go home?!
Why aren't you answering?
Until when are you going to keep my husband there? Huh?
Guardian. Ignoring a patient? We never did such a thing.
Then, why are you just leaving him there and
not putting him in a room after the surgery?!
Are you going to put him there all night? Why?
As I said before, the rooms are all full right now, that's why.
Nevermind.
Where is the attending physician?
I will talk with the attending physician.
Did you make up with Master Kim?
You still don't want to talk about it huh?
Alright then.
Oh yeah, your mom called you to see if you're fine.
You talked with my mom?
Yeah, the phone kept ringing. So I picked up and told her that you were in surgery.
There was no other talk?
Well, we were talking about side dishes and work.
You had a conversation with those topics?
Yeah... why?
Doctor, there is a problem with the patient.
What happened?
All of a sudden, the patient started shaking.
For now, put lorazepam in the IV please.
Okay, I understand.
It is in.
You said this patient was an alcoholic right?
I think it might be delirium tremens.
Doctor, the heart rate is 180 right now.
Put one more dose of lorazepam.
Okay.
His BPM isn't decreasing, still.
Give one more dose of lorazepam and prepare 1 L of fentanyl please.
I understand.
Okay.
Patient? Patient?
Guardian, can you-
Why is my husband like this?
There was no mistakes in the surgery yesterday?
No, it has nothing to do with the surgery.
But, the alcohol level is at a critical amount.
We call that delirium tremens.
Delirium tremens?
We did put medicine in the IV.
But it doesn't seem to be working.
If this condition continues,
it could affect his heart.
Oh my... what to do-
Please save him, Doctor.
Even if he can be annoying, I can't live without him.
Ah, here you are Doctor.
Look here, until when will my husband be kept in the ER?
I am already upset about the surgery order that
you decided, now we are waitlisted for a room?
Guardian... did you not hear the ER specialist's explanation?
Right now, there is no room available.
Both of the patients were in surgery before your
husband and both of them are in critical state.
Ah, then you shouldn't have received these patients in the first place!
We couldn't do anything because the urgent patients came in all of a sudden,
and Dr. Yang already told you!
We were planning to monitor your husband in the ER
and then move him to a room later this afternoon.
That's enough.
Move my husband immediately to ICU.
Right now.
Excuse me. You are being a bit overboard.
Because of your husband, my husband didn't get his surgery done properly,
and he is in the ICU right now too.
What are you saying right now?
I heard everything you said on the phone yesterday.
Because of her husband, the talk about finishing my husband's surgery quickly.
Oh my goodness, what are you saying right now?
Because of your husband, my husband's surgery got pushed back.
Because you came in.
What kind of nonsense are you saying?
Okay, excuse me.
Everyone, calm down.
Guardian, there seems to be a misunderstanding.
I never rushed a surgery ever.
I told you that I have done my best.
And Guardian, the order of the surgeries is done by the urgency of the cases.
Oh forget it.
Transfer my husband to the ICU or else, I will sue this hospital.
Right now!
Doctor, it is a cardiac arrest.
The defibrillator,
The defibrillator, hurry.
Okay.
Oh my goodness, what can I do?
I will do it.
200 Joules.
Get off, shock!
Push some Epi and charge to 200 Joules.
Okay.
I am going to check his rhythm.
V-fib.
Shock.
What can I do? What can I-
Okay.
Oh what can I do? Honey!
It's been an hour.
3 dose of epi is going in right?
Dr. Kang Dong Joo...
Synced & ripped by bozxphd Subtitles by The Romantic Doctors ♡ @ Viki
Oh my...
Patient Lee Dong Joo,
has died.
No, it can't be.
No.
If you couldn't save him,
why did you say to do the surgery?
If you have done the surgery properly,
my husband wouldn't have died.
Save him.
Save my husband.
Hurry, Doctor.
It wasn't because of the surgery but because of the alcohol!
It was because of the delirium tremens!
Yesterday, he walked and everything... I can't believe it.
Please.
Please save him, save my husband again.
Please.
Please save him, Doctor.
Please calm down. I will leave you to see him one last time.
You have to say your good-byes.
Honey.
Now your husband,
can be moved to the ICU now.
What kind of scenario was that before?
Why were you yelling at the guardians, huh?
They keep on giving me suspicions about my surgery.
I worked hard on that surgery.
I gave it my all and took out the liver. I gave it my all and took out the glass!
It is not my fault that the ICU is out of beds.
It is not my fault that he consumed a lot of alcohol.
Then why are they blaming it on my surgery?! WHY?!
Yes, I know.
That you would want to yell at me like this.
Because you had no choice but to make that decision that time too!
In that situation, you tried your best then!
So, don't blame the doctor.
You are probably thinking that.
I know it too well.
I know it so well that my anger is overwhelming me.
I want to hate you so much... but I can't do that now.
Because I'm a doctor.
You know what is the most said phrase?
Why did you do the surgery if you couldn't even save them?
Then, you know what else you hear?
They were fine before, but you did the surgery wrong.
Our work is to save patients. But
we always have to hear these phrases and curses.
Because we are putting a knife on a human body.
Go upstairs and apologize.
You have to do that for the treatment to be over. Okay?
I'm sorry.
I can't understand what you are saying right now.
Dr. Kang Dong Joo.
Can I speak with you for a moment?
Dr. Boo Yong Joo is innocent.
If he didn't do anything wrong, why was he kicked out like that in the hospital.
Because of responsibility.
What do you mean?
If I do nothing, then you guys won't know anything.
Then the things that you did wrong,
Why can't you do those things, you won't learn.
So, if you fight, do you think you could win?
Do you think I can't?
You will get hurt then.
I am not afraid.
Not you, but the 7 staff members that helped you.
If you act out, I can't touch you.
In result, the people who'll get hurt and kicked out are those staff members.
The staff that got kicked out like that... what hospital will want them?
Do you have the coincidence to be responsible for life?
The people who have families are already 3.
So shut up.
if you take the blame, those 7 people will be able to live comfortably. Hm?
In result, because of those 7 people,
Dr. Boo Yong Joo took all the blame and left the hospital?
Yes, that is how I have heard it.
Why are you telling me this?
What does Master Kim's story have to do with me?
To be honest, besides those 7 staff members, there was one more person.
That day,
There was an incident of a high schooler barged in and started breaking things.
That child's mother was billed with $200,000 worth of equipment.
And that high schooler was to go to jail.
Because he's over 14 so it was a possible situation.
What are you saying?
Did you not think it was weird, even once?
After making such a big incident, it just passed by quietly.
We didn't have courage back then.
No, cowardly is more accurate.
The crime that has been covered,
has lead to Dr. Boo Yong Joo to leave. I thought it was a relief.
Can I ask one more question? That surgery, if it
was not decided by Dr. Boo Yong Joo, who was it?
It was Director Do. This person.
If you knew the truth, are you ready to release it to the world?
Timing and subtitles brought to you by The Romantic Doctors ♡ @ Viki
[SURGERY RECORD]
What is this right now?
It is a list of patients that have received
surgery from another doctor without consent.
There were people that knew that they received such surgeries.
The people at the Goodae hospital that is keeping their mouth shut,
everything should be written down.
What does this mean?
Because the incident has already passed, you can't do anything with it,
but to Director Do, it will be a heavy leverage.
Congratulation on your comeback! I will hang up now.
I was not able to tell the truth to the world, but I wanted to give it to
someone who can reveal the truth.
Honey? You are going to be fine now. Don't worry, okay?
I will be waiting here!
I'm sorry.
I am apologizing for what happened earlier.
But please remember this.
Any patient who comes into Doldam Hospital is important.
There is a sincerity of trying to save a patient, that is what I'm saying.
Did I tell anyone that they are fake or something?
I don't know why you are saying something I didn't even mention.
Good job!
Dr. Yoon Seo Jung, a second please.
This isn't something that you should ignore.
Director Do wanted me to congratulate you all in place of him.
But you can't do that to Director Do, more than anyone else.
Anyway, Master Kim isn't going, so me going is a bit wrong.
Oh my, I told you, even if I told him to go, he won't.
- Where? - My goodness you scared me.
Where would I not go even if I was invited?
Today Director Do wanted to gather the artificial heart staff,
to Seoul.
Why?
What do you mean? He wants to congratulate the hard working staff.
Was playing with the article not enough?
Why do they want these busy people to go up to Seoul?
Please don't be like that!
Because of you, everyone is rejecting the invitation and everything.
Hey, Yoon Seo Jung. Are you gauging my mood right now?
No, I'm not. I would never do that.
Look here, look here. She is gauging your emotions right here!
I'm not, Director Song.
Don't be like that and Master Kim give permission for these
kids to go. Huh?
Originally, I called Head Nurse and Nurse Park Eun Tak.
But they are not listening because they basically your fans.
But why did you exclude me?
Huh?
He wanted to congratulate the staff of the artificial heart replacement.
I was the head of the artificial heart surgery, so why are you excluding me out?
Why are you being like this? You aren't even going to come if I invite you.
Invite me to see if I go or not.
What?
Invite me, I said.
Do you want to come?
I will then.
What?
Yoon Seo Jung, get dressed. I guess we will get some fresh air in Seoul.
That's alright?
Yeah, then.
Wait one second,
I will see if Head Nurse has time. Get out of the way.
Did he eat something wrong?
- What? - What?
Why is everyone so shocked, the main hospital invited us to congratulate us,
Then all of us need to go to Seoul to accept that congratulations.
So Head Nurse, get ready.
You too Do II.
Do you want to go too, Chief Administrator?
Me too?
Do In Beom, you get ready too!
What about the ER?
There is Dr. Woo Yeon Hwa and Dr. Moon here.
And there is Director Song, too.
Me? I need to go to Seoul too what are you saying?
Did you do the artificial heart replacement surgery?
No, but-
So, you stay here, so we can go!
Kang Dong Joo, you are going too, right?
Sure, I'm going.
If you are going, I will go.
Well it all worked out. Let's all take a trip to Seoul.
Let's go, Head Nurse.
Okay.
What am I supposed to do?
What do I do? What to do?
Should I tell him? Should I not?
I can't do it.
If I tell him, he will surely say to block it. What power do I have to block them?
I can't do it! How can I?
What are you going to do when we go?
What do you mean?
I am going to do what I couldn't do 14 years ago.

Goodae hospital, first artificial heart surgery day.
Yes. yes.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
Yes, it is me.
Ah yes, they should all be almost there.
What do you mean? Are you not coming?
Yes? Ah me. My stomach hurts all of a sudden.
Sorry, I am really sorry, Director. I need to go to the washroom so.
Director, come here.
Let's take a picture. Yes.
But, when would the guests arrive?
I just received a call saying they are almost here.
Oh.
Boo Yong Joo?
Goodae hospital, first artificial heart surgery success.
Why are you here?
Well, I heard it was a congratulatory party for the
first artificial heart to artificial heart replacement.
Which is why I should be here.
We all did it together after all.
Do you know what is the hardest to do in the world? Breaking one's confidence.
14 years ago, Boo Yong Joo
was cowardly.
To be honest, they didn't know how to win.
afraid
They didn't want to cause trouble.
and ran away
That is what they thought was responsible.
What are you trying to say?
This time, it looks like you, Director Do, will go through a hard time.
What does this mean? Does this mean you will go against me?
Why? Are you afraid?
