EPISODE 4
Min-seong told me to give you this.
Me?
Yes.
He asked me to make sure
to give this
to whoever brought the dumpling stew.
Cha-young,
thanks for the dumpling stew.
I just knew it.
I could tell right away that you made it.
You went to Greece because of Kang, didn't you?
The Peter Pan from your childhood you always talked about.
Kang is that boy, isn't he?
My wallet isn't here. Did I leave it in the movie theater?
-Gosh, I'll be right back. -Cha-young. It's raining though.
Cha-young!
I happened to see that photo inside your wallet.
The one where the two of us were out of focus,
but Kang, who was smiling, looked very clear and sharp.
Kang and I are going fishing today.
I'm going to tell him when I see him.
That you remembered and waited for him for many years.
To tell you the truth, I've tried to tell him a number of times,
but I lost the chance to do so, being the petty-minded guy that I am.
I'm sorry.
You couldn't be with him because of me.
This time, don't let him go anywhere.
Before it gets too late.
I've learned that
life is too short to waste time fooling ourselves.
I'd like to thank you one more time.
Your dumpling stew is the most delicious dish
I've ever tasted in my life.
Take good care of Kang.
I made
dumpling stew for him.
Min-seong
really enjoyed it.
I understand that it's hard for you to accept Min-seong's death,
but you should give him a good send-off.
Don't make him wait for too long, Kang.
Taxis rarely come by around here.
Because it gets dark, and it's raining.
Where are you headed?
Drop me off anywhere
where I can catch a taxi.
Are you going back to Greece?
Yes.
Have a safe flight back.
And I hope we never meet again.
Okay.
Let's stop for a moment here.
You see,
I call him Peter Pan.
I only met him once when I was a little girl.
He was my first love.
I met him again when I got older, too.
But I was still
so excited to see him,
and he made my heart flutter.
Although he didn't even recognize me.
I'm such a fool, aren't I?
Mom.
Mom...
Mom.
Where am I?
Am I
dead?
No, you're alive.
You can hear me, right?
Ma'am,
are you here by my side?
I'm right by your side,
so don't be scared.
Let's get out of here alive, okay?
You can hear me, right?
Answer me, sweetie.
Sweetheart.
Why aren't you saying anything?
Sweetheart.
Do not give up, sweetie.
Sweetie.
We must live.
Sweetie?
Sweetie...
Cha-young.
Cha-young!
Sir, what did you eat yesterday?
Yesterday? Nothing much.
Judging from the symptoms, I think you have enteritis.
But you should still get a CT scan just in case.
It's too expensive though.
No, it's not. Insurance covers it nowadays.
Chang-gi!
Hey, Kang.
What's going on?
This woman needs a checkup.
Oh, okay. This way.
The fracture in her rib and right shoulder blade
caused a lung contusion.
The CT scan shows significant lung damage.
I drained it through a chest tube as a temporary measure.
But I think you need a CT scan as well.
What's taking NS so long?
They got rid of NS a year ago.
They got rid of Neurosurgery?
They never hired anyone after the professor retired.
It's hard to find qualified candidates in the countryside, and it's not profitable.
This lady is in serious condition,
but you look even worse now.
Kang, let's go get a CT scan immediately. Please?
Where is the closest hospital that is equipped for neurosurgery?
-Daejeon. -How far is it from here?
It's about an hour away.
Come on, you need a CT scan immediately.
We still have all the neurosurgical tools, right?
What are you thinking?
Cha-young...
I mean, this lady. I think she has an epidural hematoma.
It's spread about 10mm already.
We need to remove the blood clot at once,
or it could cause severe neurological disorders.
Her life may be put at risk as well.
So? What are you going to do?
I'll operate on her.
Kang, open up. Please?
You're in no condition to perform surgery.
Kang!
Hey, you're the one that needs to undergo surgery now.
Kang, I beg you. Let me in, please?
Painkillers won't be enough for this.
Hey, open this door this instant.
Yes.
Yes, what's up?
What?
I'm Lee Kang, a neurosurgeon from the main hospital.
This branch has no neurosurgery department
but this patient is in critical condition, so I'll be performing her surgery.
Thank you all for your help.
-Please get ready. -Yes, doctor.
Sweetie.
What's your name?
Cha-young.
Moon Cha-young.
That's a pretty name.
What is your name, ma'am?
My name is
Jung Su-hui.
Scalpel.
Are you scared?
No, not anymore.
Because you're here with me.
But
I'm sleepy, and I feel weak.
Can you reach out your hand? Towards this crack where I am.
Hold on.
A little more.
Just a little more.
Hang on.
What is this?
It's chocolate.
OPERATION TIME 31 MINUTES
Gauze.
-Suction. -Suction.
My son
loves chocolate.
I bought it for my son,
but I don't think I'll make it.
This chocolate is good.
Even if it's hard,
you must hold out until help arrives.
Eat the chocolate
and...
get out of here alive,
Cha-young.
Okay.
How are her vitals?
Her systolic BP is 150. Her vitals are stabilizing.
I'd like to do her chest and orthopedics next,
in a combined operation.
Will that be okay?
It should be fine.
-But you look like you're in pain. -I'm fine.
Thank you, everyone.
I told you that I can beat him on my own.
I repeatedly told you I'm competent enough to beat that little jerk.
Why won't you believe me?
Leave!
No, you leave.
If you don't want Chairman Jo to die on the operating table,
you're the one who should leave.
Let's get ready.
GEOSUNG UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL
1 YEAR LATER
Do you know recognize me?
Who are you?
What?
Why would you ask that to your brother?
I'm your younger brother, Tae-hyeon. Moon Tae-hyeon!
I have no family.
I'm alone.
Unbelievable.
Why are you alone?
You have me, and you have Mom.
Sir.
I'm not feeling well now.
Would you leave me alone?
She just called me sir.
Cha-young. My sister.
Please pull yourself together. It's me, Tae-hyeon.
How could you not recognize me?
If you keep being like this, I'll call the police.
-Ms. Moon Cha-young. -Yes?
How long has it been since the surgery?
It's been a year.
I just heard from the nurse
that you don't remember your family.
How long has it been like this?
The MRI result seems good, and the surgery was successful.
What's the problem?
It might be PTSD.
I'll transfer you to the psychiatry.
He showed up after ten months,
never having called, texted or IM'ed me.
He's just been off somewhere.
While his sister
was hovering between life and death after a car accident.
My mom ran away with him from creditors 24 years ago
leaving me alone when I was only 12.
She told me to wait in a department store
saying she'd buy me a birthday gift.
Mom hasn't even called me ever since.
And he came back alone after 15 years.
What kind of family is that?
I don't want to talk to that jerk for the rest of my life.
Will you please
tell him
that I got amnesia
from the car accident?
Please?
I'm sorry. I must've been out of my mind.
Please pretend
you didn't hear it. I'm sorry.
I have a question.
Why don't you ever ask
about Dr. Lee Kang?
He was in the car with you,
and he performed surgery on you when he was injured as well.
Is it because you want nothing to do with him until you die?
Like your brother?
What color is it?
It's blackish.
What?
Why is it black, not red?
Well, the thing is...
Maybe you haven't recovered completely...
You just did it wrong. Don't make an excuse.
I made a complete recovery long ago.
I'm sorry.
Switch places with me.
Pardon?
I'll show you how to draw arterial blood.
You sit here.
Please make sure it doesn't hurt.
You silly thing.
Guys, watch carefully.
I'll show you what Hyeon-beom just did wrong
to turn my arterial blood black.
The point is the angle.
You should stick the needle at a 45-degree angle like this.
But he pierced my vein instead because his hand was shaking...
See?
This is how you shake your hand and make a mistake. Okay?
-Yes. -Yes.
I haven't done this for a long time, so I'm a little nervous.
Gosh.
Look. What color is it?
-Red, sir. -Red, sir.
See? It's red.
I heard you came back to work today.
I wanted to visit and thank you sooner,
but I didn't have the courage to do so.
My ardent feelings for you
are not over yet.
So,
I'm running away like this
not to reach you again.
My gosh.
Are you all right?
My goodness, who was that?
A month from now,
I'm going back to Greece.
Are you going back to Greece?
Yes.
Have a safe flight back.
And I hope we never meet again.
Some time later
when my feelings for you are all gone,
I'll come back with a nonchalant face
and make sure to
give my thanks to you.
Don't fall sick.
Don't get hurt.
Please stay happy.
Hye-mi.
Hye-mi?
Here's the thing.
I heard Chairman Seo's wife
fell down from cavernous angioma.
Why do you seem so upset?
You're not even close with her.
You wanted her daughter as your daughter-in-law though.
Kang found her, and now she's being taken to the hospital.
-Kang did? -Yes.
So what...
Darn it.
Why did he of all doctors find her?
We have to let Jun perform the surgery.
Surgery for cavernous angioma isn't so tricky anyway.
Plus, it's a good chance for him to find favor with Chairman Seo.
With the surgery, her daughter and Jun might be...
What?
Do you think Kang can't think of what you have in mind?
When he's sure to win as soon as he becomes Chairman Seo's son-in-law?
Gosh.
The little brat.
KING'S TABLE
It's done.
Hello. It's me, Cha-young.
I booked a flight to Greece today.
Thank you so much for everything.
So...
I'm recording this video of the recipes you taught me
so that you can refer to it
in case you don't remember them.
This is the signature menu of King's Table,
bulgogi and small octopus stew.
Washing the suckers of small octopuses is an important step.
If you use salt, the octopuses might get tough.
Look. You can use instant coffee mixes like this.
Then you should rub it down.
Two tablespoons of sugar.
Two tablespoons of sesame oil.
Pepper to taste.
And you told me that seasoning meat with salted shrimp instead of soy sauce
makes the meat much more tender.
This is a tip you gave me yourself.
The King Lady says she doesn't remember.
No, I'm sure she said that.
When the restaurant is closed,
she will make me banana rice cake.
You said so yourself.
You dummy.
How would she make rice cake with bananas?
That's what I mean.
I've never heard of rice cake made with banana.
Just wait. I'll make you banana bread.
It's not bread. I'm sure you said rice cake.
My mom liked it too.
She ate more than ten pieces.
You little rascal. How dare you yell at me like that?
I'm the one who made it.
How would you know that?
Banana bread is all I can make.
I don't care whether you eat it or not.
You are a liar.
Bread or rice cake, can't the little brat just eat whatever I make him?
That cursed tramp of a mother he's got.
How could she abandon her sick kid and run off with a man,
leaving me behind to suffer?
That damn bitch...
Are you all right?
Here.
Have you heard of rice cake made with banana before?
No, huh?
You made one before.
Banana rice cake.
I did?
When?
When I was sick.
You made one for me.
She's in a stupor, with a blood pressure of 170 to 80.
Her vitals are unstable. Send her to the ICU.
Okay.
Hello, sir.
This way, please.
The patient is a 63-year-old female. The surgical site will be on the left.
I will now begin removing the angioma.
-Scalpel. -Scalpel.
Forceps.
-Irrigation. -Irrigation.
I heard the doctor performing the surgery
is the second grandson of Chairwoman Han.
So I'm guessing he knows what he's doing.
Yes, of course.
He's the best doctor we have.
You don't need to worry, sir.
-Bipolar forceps. -Bipolar forceps.
Dr. Lee.
Is there something wrong?
I think there's a problem with the doctor.
What's wrong with Dr. Lee Kang?
Dr. Lee Jun.
Is this medical malpractice?
No, it's nothing like that.
I think we'll need to find another surgeon for you.
Gown, please.
Ji-yong!
Ji-yong, wake up!
Ji-yong!
Ji-yong! Ji-yong, wake up!
Can you please repeat the location?
Excuse me. I'm looking for a kid named Yun Ji-yong.
He's eight years old.
-Just a moment. -Okay.
Hey!
What happened to your little brother, Ji-yong?
Min-yong.
Is it her?
Are you the woman who fed banana rice cake to Ji-yong?
Why did you give him that?
Sir.
The operation seems to be going very well.
What are you going to do about my grandson, you wench?
That little boy is about to die because of you!
It's all your fault, you bitch!
Look what you did to the poor boy!
You did that to my grandson!
My goodness, what are we going to do?
My goodness. I can't believe this!
Please calm down, ma'am. You can't do this here.
Let me go. If something happens to my grandson,
I'll just kill the both of us. Let me go!
-Please calm down. -Let me go.
Why would you just stand there and watch?
Security!
-Are you okay? Are you hurt? -What about my poor grandson?
He was already bound to die soon.
But that bitch made it worse and gave him rice cake!
Why in the world would you give him rice cake?
-My gosh, Ji-yong! -What were you guys doing?
Just look at the mess going on here!
I'm sorry, Doctor. Things were urgent at the ER.
Let me go.
Ma'am, calm down.
If anything bad happens to Ji-yong...
If something bad happens to my grandson,
I swear I'll kill you, so you'd better not go anywhere.
Don't you dare go anywhere else!
I'd like to change my wish.
I hope we never meet
until the day we die.
What the hell did you do, you jerk?
How could you do something like that?
You're a complete beast, aren't you?
Are you okay?
Would you like a pill to calm you down?
Shove it up yours.
You don't get to shove anything anywhere, you asshole!
No, don't eat that.
Why not?
The drug for Alzheimer's that you bought from my brother
was all fake.
He told me it's just a mixture of cheap herbs from here and there,
and it's meant for indigestion.
Oh, I see. No wonder I never felt gassy
or got indigestion.
Tae-hyeon told me he also got scammed by an acquaintance.
But to be honest, it's quite hard to believe.
I promise I'll return the money you paid him
for the medication.
I'm really sorry, ma'am.
LEE KANG
What do you think you're doing?
What did you do to me?
I saved your life.
Are you sure you didn't try to kill me?
You should've given up on Moon Cha-young.
You missed your golden time because of her.
I'm the one who saved you
from dying that day.
Why didn't you properly remove the hematoma?
That had nothing to do with the golden time.
If you had only removed the hematoma--
You can blame yourself.
There was nothing wrong with my surgery.
Why didn't you remove the hematoma?
I said I made the right choice.
And there was nothing wrong with my surgery.
PERSONNEL APPOINTMENT
YOU'VE BEEN TRANSFERRED TO GEOSUNG HOSPICE
HOSPICE: A FACILITY THAT HELPS
TERMINAL PATIENTS RELIEVE THEIR PAIN
SO THEY CAN DIE A PEACEFUL DEATH
Oh, damn it.
Why are you clapping?
That was just as bad as the card you had before.
This is why people with Alzheimer's shouldn't be allowed to play.
Having a bad hand of cards has nothing to do with Alzheimer's.
My gosh, why is this game so easy?
I'm sorry, ladies.
Will you take a look at this?
Give me your best cards.
Dare to cheat me and I'll cut your wrists off.
Let's see what you have, Seon-ae.
You have no Gwang cards. Extra points off for you.
And as for you, no Pi cards. Extra points off for you too, ma'am!
Mr. Handsome won!
-That's right! -My goodness, you brat.
Okay, let's see.
I don't think any of you here stand a chance against me.
What should I do? Should I play another round?
No, please don't do that.
You should also plead him to stop.
Third round it is!
Will you cut the crap?
-Give it to me. -Give you what?
You would never play a fair game.
You cheated, didn't you?
My gosh, are you kidding me? What do you take me for?
-My goodness. -Hey, wait.
What's this?
It came out of that brat's sleeve.
This is a portable toothpick.
Why would you use this instead of an actual toothpick?
Let me explain what he just did.
This is one of the many ways to cheat.
Simply put,
this jerk totally scammed all of you
by cheating his way through the game.
Really?
-My goodness. -Hey!
Normally, when you get caught doing this at a gambling ring,
they cut off your wrist.
But I'll leave you ladies to decide
what to do with this jerk.
Have some banana rice cakes, too.
Hey, you dared to scam hospital patients?
I might as well just fill your mouth with these cards.
We don't have much money to begin with.
How dare you try to steal from us?
Hey, stop!
-You're mistaken. -My goodness.
-Let me down. -That hurts.
Ma'am, it's a misunderstanding.
I seriously use this card as a toothpick.
See?
Cha-young!
-My gosh, you've got it all wrong. -Did you forget mine?
-It's a misunderstanding. -Of course not.
-You punk. -My goodness.
Here.
Take your time to chew. Drink some water as well.
By the way, where's your brother?
He's embarrassed to see you. My grandma also feels the same way.
I wasn't sick that day
because of the banana rice cake.
I'm okay with what happened.
I'm not going to die early.
I'm going to live until I'm ten years old.
That's too short.
You should live until you're 100.
Ji-yong!
What are you doing here? Our friends are waiting.
Oh, right!
Can't we let her join as well?
She always spends time alone.
Me?
-My goodness! -Let's hurry!
-Let's go! -Hurry up!
-Be careful, kids. -Okay.
Hey, wait!
One, if I don't even see you for a second
Two, I feel so anxious
Three, how am I supposed to wait For three seconds?
Four, I love you
Five, I'm going to tell you today
Six, the fact that we met Among the six billion people on earth
Seven, shows that we're really lucky
I love you
Don't go around flirting with others
Just focus only on me
There we go.
I found you!
There you are!
How did you find me?
I found you!
My ear hurts.
Should we play freeze tag?
I found everyone!
-This is everyone, right? -Yes.
I found everyone, right?
What should we do next?
Let's play freeze tag.
Okay.
-Let's go! -I'm it!
I unfroze you.
Freeze!
You're frozen.
GEOSUNG HOSPICE, 1KM
Mr. Kwon, sir.
I'm glad you're here.
Look who's here.
-This is Dr. Lee Kang. -Hello.
-Hi.
Let's go inside.
We still have to finish that part.
Okay.
Once you're done, keep digging over there.
-Okay. -Keep going.
Excuse me.
What are you doing here?
Hey.
There are people down there. Someone's still down there.
Someone is alive down there.
Help! Please help!
Please help me. Help.
I heard the new doctor was the one
who performed your surgery.
He must be a really famous and competent doctor.
I wonder why a guy like him ended up working here.
I'm not going to die
like my mom!
This won't ever happen again.
I'm sorry.
I don't care why you're here.
But I'd appreciate it if you didn't cause any trouble until you leave.
I want you to leave right now.
How about we go get some jajangmyeon?
