[Episode 17]
Six months have passed.
I opened my own place. A neighborhood clinic.
Since I didn't finish my residency, I couldn't become a specialist.
So I couldn't get a job anywhere.
So I decided to live as a relaxed doctor in a quiet town.
Living a carefree life.
I don't have to rush to make house calls for gangsters
or make sickening house calls for the privileged class anymore.
But to be honest, it's not really a carefree life.
Tae Hyun!
What?
What is it? Is food ready?
Hurry up and come here. Your lunch hour is almost over.
Hurry up and eat.
- Your patients will be waiting for you. - Okay, got it.
Be considerate of the person who cooks for you.
You eat three meals a day at home.
She's right!
How nice would it be to eat out once in a while?
Aren't you going to get a job?
Don't say that when someone's eating! Leave him alone.
Sang Chul, do you want more soup?
And So Hyun is... healthy.
Chairwoman, have you spoken to the new Prime Minister?
No, not yet.
Actually, Prime Minister contacted us.
He'd like to see you in the near future.
I'm not sure.
I don't know how long he will last...
Does he need to go out of his way to meet with me?
It's true, but since he made an earnest request to see you
I don't think it's a bad idea to get together.
The election is right around the corner...
Shouldn't business people keep their distance from the politicians?
Of course...
Why don't you meet with him first?
Review the topics and decide on a meeting.
I'll do that.
Why don't you come with me, Chairman?
Yes, that's a good idea.
- Hold on. - Hey!
Just for a minute!
Hi, Yeo Jin!
Can I see you for a second?
What should we do about him?
Oh my. You're here too, Chairman.
Chairwoman, please spare me just this once.
Is someone dying?
Chairwoman, please tell him just one word.
Sir, if you help us this time
I'll definitely pay you back within three days.
Chairwoman, please don't do this...
Please forgive me just this time.
Even though we were at war
I surrendered, so you should spare my life.
Must you be... so cruel to me?
You once said meat can be fully enjoyed by gnawing on it.
How did the chunk of flesh I sent you taste?
Please leave now.
Fine...
The son was killed by the brother.
The brother was killed by the dead son's father.
And that father is killed by the dead brother's sister.
What are you doing? Take him out!
So, who will kill the sister?
Take him out!
Revenge and war... ended like this.
- How long has he had a fever? - Two days ago.
He took acetaminophen.
Why? Isn't it a cold?
It could be a cold...
It's not certain... so I don't know.
You don't know?
I didn't specialize in pediatrics.
Jeez...
Should I consider this being honest or being foolish?
How can you say you don't know in front of a patient?
Even if you don't know, you should pretend like you do.
Act the part...
and prescribe him stronger acetaminophen
mixed with a probiotic and antibiotics!
Even I could do it!
Do you want to be in business or not? Seriously...
It would be good for me, too.
But why are you here anyway?
Give the kid some cold medicine! My stomach...
Who are you to say things like that?
Me? I'm a shareholder of this clinic.
Hi, it's me.
Yes, he's six years old with symptoms of a cold.
But it's a bit different. His fever is up to 38.3 degrees Celcius.
His tongue?
Kid, stick your tongue out.
It is. It is a strawberry tongue.
His palm?
You're right, Kawasaki disease.
Yes, thank you.
- It's Kawasaki disease. - What disease?
It's called Kawasaki disease and has symptoms similar to a cold.
I'll write you a note. Take it to a hospital.
If you don't treat it now, it could become a serious heart issue later.
Really?
A heart issue?
Doctor, thank you! Thank you so much!
There is no prescription, so you can go.
- Thank you. - Bye.
What?
I believe it's better to be a little stupid than dishonest.
I can ask if I don't know.
Every time?
That's enough. Are you sick?
I have a stomachache... and diarrhea...
What did you eat at the bar last night?
This and that. Everything.
How did you know that I drank last night?
You still reek of alcohol.
Of course. You're not Heo Joon... (famous doctor from the Joseon period)
It's not like you know just by looking.
You don't need any medicine.
- Eat some boiled and mashed carrots. - No prescription again?
Right, no prescription. But make sure you pay before you go.
Hey, look! The kid didn't get a prescription either
so why are you charging me and not them?
Boss, you're pretty well off.
Her family is not doing well these days.
Goodness... you know how other people are doing?
Of course. I'm a community leader of this town.
Community leader? Who told you?
The owner of the neighborhood grocery store told me.
The owner of the real estate office told me, too.
Everyone tells me that I'm a community leader.
What a crock full of shit.
Doctor, your afternoon schedule is over. You'll be heading to Doma's House, right?
Yes, I will.
It won't hurt.
A little sting.
It hurts!
He must be really hurting.
Oh my.
Here.
- Thank you, Doctor. - You're welcome.
We're done with immunization shots, right?
Yes, we have adult patients now.
- Please take a short break. - Should we?
Can I play with kids for a bit?
Would the kids play with the man who gave them shots?
Really?
- Oh, Ms. Lee is here too. - Really?
Oh, you have dead skin!
Let me see. Here, too!
Isn't that nice? This side, too.
Ma'am?
You're here?
- Take a break. - Just wait a little.
I'll be done after these kids.
Now, let me see your butt.
My back...
I should know how by now...
but it's not easy to bathe kids.
Of course, it's tough.
I only do this because I like them...
Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to do it.
Still, you're really amazing.
Ma'am, you didn't do manual labor before.
It's been a long time since I quit being a Ma'am!
If you keep saying that, I'll call you, Brother-in-law!
Fine. What should I call you then?
Nuna (older sister). Something like that?
Okay.
- Nuna. - Sure.
See? It's nice.
Do you miss it?
Miss what?
Being the Chairwoman's husband.
Not at all.
Really?
I miss it.
Really?
Being cruel to Do Joon on purpose...
Not being able to stop him from treating Yeo Jin that way...
Not parking my car in the back of the Prosecutor's Office...
And... that day--
No, I was mostly to blame.
- I should have-- - No.
I know very well that you tried to rescue him.
And I'm sure he's thankful from the afterlife.
Do you still not talk to Yeo Jin?
Let's wrap it up.
- Doctor, the patients are ready. - Yes, I'll be there.
Oh, and...
This...
Here. Use it to pay for clinic expenses.
Please don't! It hasn't been very long since the last time.
Sister, we're not in a position to decline this.
Our doctor has a good sense of humor.
He always has!
Let's go in now.
Revenge started a long time ago.
Yes, I got it.
What?
- It's nothing. - Tell me.
It seems that Chairman Choi of Daejung just attempted suicide.
What?
So, did he die?
He didn't die. His Chief of Staff found him quickly.
I want to rest a bit today.
I understand. Call me if you need me...
I'm fine.
Dad...
How did you get through it, Dad?
Chairwoman!
Did I... faint again?
Yes.
Make sure a rumor doesn't get out.
I understand.
- But, shouldn't I call the doctor? - No.
No doctors.
I understand.
Chairwoman...
May I speak frankly?
Enemies or friends, if someone tried to commit suicide because of me...
I think it's very natural that you're in shock.
And?
No one in the world will think of you as weak.
Get me some comfortable clothes.
I need to get some air.
I don't blame you.
It's not your fault that my mom died.
You can enjoy the view comfortably from here...
but there are people, streams, and trails down there...
And Windy Hill, too.
Everything we need to be happy is there.
So... will you...
come with me?
You'll miss the picnics someday.
When that time comes, come find me.
I'll be waiting for you.
- Cheers! - Cheers!
I thought I'd benefit from having a rich brother.
I didn't know I'd be opening a beer can in front of a neighborhood grocery store.
And with these gangsters.
What? What?
Nuna, isn't this nice? This is the best place on earth.
Try this.
It's so comfortable.
Like this?
It is comfortable.
I've never been happy like this before.
I'm happy even when So Hyun is mean to me.
I'm happy when I don't get paid for a consultation.
I'm happy when the Boss brings gangsters.
And drinking this cold beer...
Feeling the breeze...
I can feel the breeze.
Yeo Jin... you should come find me soon.
Isn't it refreshing?
Tae Hyun...
I want to go join you.
What is it? Do you see something in the sky?
- You're here, Nuna! - Hi.
- I brought some pig's feet. - Wow, great!
What kind of nonsense is this? Nuna? (older sister)
To your sister-in-law!
For a gangster to be here...
Where are the police? Sir, here! Here!
- What? Police? - Man, no need to get scared!
- Have you been well? - Yes, thanks to you.
- Let's go. - Yes.
I'm glad... that you're happy.
Next, Chairwoman Han Yeo Jin of Hanshin Group will make a welcome speech.
[Hanshin Alexon Factory Completion Ceremony]
On such a bright and happy day
I thank the Prime Minister and all the guests
who came here to celebrate with us
and all of the employees, the real heroes of today...
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Going forward, Hanshin Alexon will contribute
to the future of the biotech industry...
The biotech industry all over the world...
What's wrong, Yeo Jin?
Are you okay?
Call someone!
[First Floor Clinic] Tae Hyun, come and eat!
Soup for me.
What are you watching?
In other news
Hanshin Alexon, who has excelled as a global biotech company
held a ribbon cutting ceremony in Cheonan for their second factory this afternoon.
Chairwoman Han Yeo Jin fainted in the middle of her speech
but Hanshin Group stated that the Chairwoman was just overworked
and denied rumors of anything more serious.
Next news.
Let's go.
No!
Excuse me?
- Take it with you. - Yes.
I checked the test results, Chairwoman.
- And? - Your CT is normal.
You have slight anemia, Chairwoman.
It's a typical case of fatigue and stress.
You have to rest, no matter what.
I'd like to... but it's not time for that yet.
Chairwoman...
Stress is the cause of all illnesses.
- If you keep pushing yourself... - If I do...
Will I die?
- Leave us alone for a minute. - Yes, Chairwoman.
Please remember that this conversation
falls under doctor patient confidentiality.
Yes, go ahead.
Is it possible to hallucinate because of anemia and stress?
For example, seeing dead people...
Of course.
In medical terms, stress goes beyond
what you can recognize, such as anger or irritation.
If you admit yourself to the hospital and rest--
The hospital?
Here?
I'd rather die.
I confirmed it!
- Then... - It's already Stage 2 liver cancer.
It really worked!
Besides, she's hallucinating.
You've done a great job, Ma'am.
It's still too early to be happy.
There is nothing to worry about.
There is no way out.
Since you put so much effort into this project
we'll make sure more shares go your way.
I've heard that before.
From President Go.
Forget the shares.
Divide them among yourselves and be happy.
Getting revenge for Han Do Joon is enough for me.
If you don't want to end up like President Go, do a good job.
We still have a long way to go.
Is this another hallucination?
It's been a long time.
Yes...
What brings you here?
I came to see a friend. What about you?
Why did you come to the hospital?
I needed to talk to the Director of the hospital.
I see.
Are you doing all right? You don't look so good.
It's just stress. I have a busy life.
I hear updates about you on the news.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
Are you sure that you're not sick?
- Chairwoman! Chairwoman! - Chairwoman! Chairwoman!
Are you all right?
Don't you have work to do?
There was no need for you to come all the way out here.
Chairwoman, how can you say that?
- You have to be healthy-- - Don't make a fuss.
As you can see, I'm fine.
You must be busy. I'll get going now.
Okay, then.
Kim Tae Hyun!
Yes?
Congratulations on your clinic.
No need to congratulate me.
Bye.
Hello!
Goodness, Doctor!
Wow, Kim Tae Hyun.
This is really nice.
I should get one for my clinic. The older patients will really like it.
Stop that nonsense and come over here.
Chief, you look better than before.
I do? It's all thanks to you.
I do a lot of surgeries these days.
So, is your clinic going well?
Yes, a little. It's fun.
Wow, I envy you, Director Kim.
- Director? - You're still a director of a clinic!
By the way, what brings you here?
I didn't think you'd even pee in this direction.
Well...
There is something I want to check.
Really? What is it?
Did you meet with him?
What did he say?
That's strange. This shouldn't be happening.
Even with my security clearance, I can't see the Chairwoman's CT results.
- You can leave now. - Chairwoman, why don't you see a doctor?
I said, no doctors.
Shouldn't there be a doctor we can trust?
A doctor we can trust?
Not him.
If you go to him just as a doctor and a patient--
Look at me now.
I'm a monster.
- I don't want to hurt him anymore. - No, you're just a patient.
You need a doctor's help.
And he wouldn't say no to a patient.
- Don't let anyone follow me. - I understand.
Where is she going?
Why would you be curious about that?
I'm sorry.
She drove the car?
You can't find out where she went?
Don't worry. I think I know.
Anyway, do your parents like the new house?
Yes, Nuna. I'll be right there.
Okay.
Where are you going at this hour?
Doma's House. Chae Young is bringing a sick kid there.
Why doesn't she bring him here?
I'm sure she has a reason.
I'll be back.
[First Floor Clinic]
Yeo Jin.
It is you, Yeo Jin.
Did you come here to see Tae Hyun?
Are you embarrassed?
What's wrong with a wife seeing her husband?
You look good.
I'm doing great these days. I feel at ease.
There is a place called Doma's House
that takes care of children and elderly people.
I know. I heard about it.
I guess you still get a report on my activities.
I'm not even interested...
but they do it.
Then you must know how Director Kim has been doing, too.
Director Kim?
Tae Hyun.
You must be close.
We hang out like sister and brother.
Tae Hyun... is happy.
He says that he's never been happy like this before.
So... I hope you leave him alone.
Let him be happy.
- Chae Young. - Yes?
I... see Do Joon.
Really?
I see him every day.
I see him when I eat...
I see him when I walk down the street.
I guess he hasn't gone to the afterlife yet.
I'm sorry.
When Do Joon was alive...
I guess I was too mean to him.
We all carry the weight of our own sins.
Of course, if you want...
Tae Hyun... will gladly take your load.
That's strange... She said she was coming.
Something must've happened. You don't need to come out.
Yes. Be careful getting home.
Okay, be careful getting home.
Tae Hyun... wait just a little longer for me.
I will come down from the 13th floor soon.
What's wrong, Yeo Jin?
Are you okay?
Yeo Jin.
Yeo Jin!
Are you okay?
Are you awake?
What's with your face?
[First Floor Clinic]
First Floor Clinic?
It's a nice name.
You named it that way for me, right?
Are you not feeling well?
Stress?
A disease you get when you do a lot of bad things.
Are you... having a hard time?
Yes. I'm having a hard time, Tae Hyun.
You're a little strange. You don't look good.
Let's go together and get a thorough checkup.
I did everything.
I'm normal.
It's a disease of the mind.
Whether it's a disease of the mind... or the body...
I'll treat it for you.
Don't worry.
Thank you, Tae Hyun.
I'm sorry.
I didn't know you were so sick.
I'm doing fine.
And... I'm going to come down from the 13th floor soon.
Really?
I made up my mind.
If I come back, you'll accept me?
You're already back.
Idiot.
I think you should wait a little longer.
What?
Excuse me, Chairwoman.
The Chief of Staff is waiting for you outside.
What should I do?
- Tell him to leave. - Yes.
No.
Tell him to wait.
Why?
I should go back for tonight.
Tell him I'll be down.
I should sort out my baggage before I come.
You can have people do it.
Not that kind of baggage.
The load I carry...
I can't ask to share it with you.
I'm fine with it, so just stay.
When you get better, we can go together.
Don't worry.
Who am I?
Once I make up my mind, I never change it.
I'll be back.
I'll be back soon.
- Water, please. - Yes.
Director Min, have a seat.
Yes.
Call an emergency board of directors meeting for tomorrow morning.
Pardon? Board of directors?
May I ask what it's about?
You'll find out tomorrow.
You may go. I need to rest.
I got it. Have a good night.
You look like you're in good mood.
Yes I am.
Is everything good with him?
Of course.
I'm glad I listened to you.
Thank you.
How long have you been at this house?
A tad short of 30 years.
I guess so.
It was when I was very little.
You liked Do Joon better than me, right?
That's not possible.
It's okay.
You were confident...
and he was in need of sympathy.
Thank you.
For taking Do Joon's side.
I'll excuse myself now.
She's gone to bed.
The Chairwoman has cancer.
I see.
But why tell me--
Because the future of Hanshin Group... depends on you.
What do you mean by that?
It's about the successor.
As of now, if the Chairwoman passes away, her husband becomes the heir.
Therefore, we'll compose a new will.
The Chairwoman should not meet with her husband until she passes away.
Like today.
Can you do that for us?
I always focus only on my current master.
Are you saying that you can't?
But... with time...
masters change.
Then... can we trust you?
People like us don't have souls.
Besides, there is a future master here as well.
Thank you!
I will never forget about you.
It's an honor.
A restraining order will be issued for her husband tomorrow.
So don't worry about what's going on outside.
Just take care of managing the Chairwoman and the house staff.
I understand.
Director!
How is the Chairwoman doing?
Now...
Now!
I'll deliver the instructions from the Chairwoman.
One, the war room is now dissolved.
Two, all of you will return
to your original departments until called again.
That's it.
- What does that mean? - What about the things in progress now?
There are projects that Chairwoman gave us a few days ago...
When the hunt is over...
the hunting dogs are no longer needed.
The Chairwoman ruined you kids too much.
Should I give you a word of advice?
When you go back to your place in the company...
make sure to wear your tie properly.
What a bunch of worms...
Yeo Jin.
Did you sleep well?
----
[Yong Pal]
We don't know who the new owner will be yet.
How long do we have left?
I wanted to start a happy life...
- It's unfortunate. - It'll be tough.
Chief! Professor, please wait!
Come to your senses.
Please save my Yeo Jin...
I'd pretend to be crazy and try something.
Take me now. It could be my last wish.
