EPISODE 3

[panting]

[exhales]

[sighs]

Do these. [grunts]

[chuckling on TV]

INTERN CHOI GETS CAUGH

TRYING TO RES

-Four each?

-[woman] Yes. Could you clean these up?

You're just gonna lie there?

Why aren't you helping? Fold some laundry!

Ugh, seriously!

Why fold them when I'm gonna

wear them again?

[sighs] Aren't you gonna do the dishes?

Yeah, later.

I'll do them after dinner, all at once.

-Want to clean the bathroom?

-After I shower.

What about rent?

I didn't get it yesterday.

When can I expect it?

You said to focus on my debt.

I can't give you money that I don't have.

Send it tomorrow, or you're on the street.

Joo-young, seriously, I'm so exhausted.

It's not easy working in a hospital.

Time drags on there.

Are you like this at work?

For your sake, I sure hope you're not.

Please tell me you're not this obvious

with your coworkers.

Don't worry I'm not.

That's good.

-So you're getting along with everyone?

-Not really.

I don't fit in.

One of the girls is super bougie.

Which is why I wanted to ask

Can you buy me new clothes

so I can fit in better?

Seriously, who do you think you are, huh?

Look. Seung-won wears out

the collars till they shred.

You're in debt,

you don't need clothes. [huffs]

[door opens]

-Do-won's here.

-They back?

You should work out,

instead of lying around like a bum.

If I went running with them,

I'd go straight to the hospital.

Seung-won, you got a package.

I left it in your bedroom.

Ah, thank you.

-Wanna have dinner together?

-Dinner?

Great. We haven't gone out lately.

Hey, I got paid. Let's celebrate.

It's my treat.

-Seung-won likes pork belly?

-I like pork neck.

-Do-won is the one who likes belly.

-Oh, is that so?

He and I have similar tastes.

Joo-young, we're out of bottled water.

I can get that and beer on the way home.

-[Joo-young] Leaving? What about dinner?

-No pork belly?

-I'm heading to the hospital.

-Why?

What do you mean? He obviously has work.

But it's a Sunday.

What could he possibly have to do? Huh?

-Sorry, something came up.

-Are you serious?

Can't the three of you go together?

-Okay, shall we?

-Yeah, let's go.

Oh Yi-young's buying, so we should

take advantage of that. [giggles]

-I have plans.

-Huh?

-I have other plans for dinner.

-But you wanted to go out.

-When did I say that?

-You're such a little sh*t!

[Seung-won sighs]

[sighs]

You're really meeting someone

at the hospital now?

Yes, that's right.

Thanks for the ride.

-Want some music?

-Sure.

Go ahead.

-I thought you wanted to.

-Oh. I don't really listen to music.

I meant you should put some on

if you're bored.

Mm. So you're not into music.

I like baked goods. Plain loaf, red bean

buns, cream buns, I like it all.

Tteokbokki and gimbap too.

But sundae, not so much.

I love getting massages and hate

walking, running, and hiking.

Was a member of the Dolphin Swim Club.

I'm a good swimmer.

That's why I like the sea

more than the mountains.

Am I too loud?

I'm probably disturbing you.

Oh. Not at all. I wasn't listening.

It's Sunday, so the roads are clear,

but yesterday,

there was so much traffic,

I was almost late for work.

[clears throat]

Just curious. Why are you going in?

I have a paper I'm writing

with Dr. Myoung Eun-won,

so I want to look over some charts.

I'm swamped during the week.

Weekend's the only time I have to do it.

Why would you agree to that?

You should've told her no.

-How could I say no?

-Easy. Just say the word no.

Don't let her push you around anymore.

If you're not careful,

you might be doing it alone.

Hey, I doubt that.

Gosh, you're impossible.

Well, it'll be hard work for a while,

but I'm sure it'll ultimately pay off.

Besides, she's gonna list me as

the first author, so I thought why not?

You think acting like a teacher's pet

is a good thing, but not with her.

She's treating you like a doormat.

And that's precisely why my nickname

is "Doormat Do-won." Cute, right?

Sometimes I think you're just so

-So good looking?

-Yes.

[playful music playing]

Thats not No [sighs]

You're so stupid, dude.

You know, sometimes I think you're

-So pretty?

-Mm-mm. You're hilarious.

You're, like, the funniest girl

I've ever known.

Exactly what makes me so funny?

Hey, what makes me funny?

See? [chuckling] Like this right now.

The way you talk and your reactions

-[bike revs]

-[brakes screech]

[breath trembles]

[soft music playing]

Are you okay?

Definitely not okay.

[sighs]

[theme music playing]

RESIDENT PLAYBOOK

[coffee machine whirring, beeps]

[Jae-il] Thank you.

Good morning!

Did you sleep well?

We didn't 'cause we were on call.

Oh, yeah.

Jae-il, why are you here so early?

[Jae-il] Oh, well

R1s actually have a lot to do

in the mornings.

And things take longer

since they haven't hit their stride yet.

[Eun-mi] Oh!

-Yes, precisely.

-[chuckles softly]

It can feel like a lot.

They say the first year is the hardest.

But, you know, the second year

is harder than the first.

And then it becomes even harder

in your third year. Yep.

Today's gonna be a rough day,

just like every day. [laughs]

[sighs]

-Should we get going?

-Yeah.

Oh! I saw Dr. Ku earlier.

Should I get him a coffee?

Hmm. Mm-mm.

He's had one, half an hour ago.

By now, he's probably sitting on

the bench getting his daily sun time.

How do you know that?

You'll soon come to realize

that the entire department knows

where he is and what he does every day.

[whimsical music playing]

Every day at 5:00, he's the first

to arrive for breakfast before his shift.

Morning.

[Da-hye] During surgery hours,

he'll go to the shop in the basement,

get a bun, and chug a can of coffee

before he gets back.

[Eun-mi] Every day, he rotates dinner

in the same pattern.

Street food, next day, Chinese food.

Next day, Western food,

and then back to

-Street food!

-[Eun-mi] Precisely.

On Mondays, he goes to a gym nearby.

On Wednesdays, after he plays tennis,

he returns here to the hospital.

Wow. So he's really found a routine

for living life to the fullest.

[inhales sharply]

I'm not so sure it's to the fullest.

He's more like a

permanent resident?

-Permanent Resident?

-[both chuckle]

-Shall we?

-Let's go.

Oh, I'll take that. I got it.

I got it, I got it.

[mysterious music playing]

Hey, good morning!

-What's that outfit?

-Hmm?

Shoulders, think you'll fit inside?

Look at you.

[elevator dings]

Hold the door! [grunts]

Excuse me, Doctor.

-Oh. The fifth floor, right?

-Yes.

-Oh. Thank you so much.

-Of course.

[lighthearted music playing]

[chuckles]

What was that for?

[elevator dings]

[sighs] I really don't care

to date a coworker.

What do you mean?

-I think that man was checking me out.

-Really? He was?

-I don't think so.

-He was, okay!

-If you say so. See you later.

-Ugh, seriously. I'm 100% sure.

[elevator dings]

Stop glancing back at me like that.

What if someone gets the wrong idea

and thinks you like them?

-Wait, did I do that?

-You did it yesterday too.

You glanced at me when I was

with my coworkers. [clicks tongue]

-Are you that crazy about me?

-Mm.

[chuckles]

Wow. I never thought I was the kind

of guy to be so obvious.

[chuckles]

Ooh, Professor Yong's a romantic.

It's the same scrubs,

but there's something different now.

I wear the exact same thing every day.

You know, I may technically be

a professor, but a junior.

So I hear you're writing

another paper soon, right?

How many have you written now?

I have a lot to learn,

you know. [chuckles]

I gotta get my research materials and go.

Professor Chae's waiting for me.

Speaking of which, she called me

this morning and told me

not to let you use her

as an excuse to rush off,

and to make sure you ate before you left.

-You mean it?

-Yes.

I think she's a mind-reader.

Aw, I love that lady so much.

You should be saying that to me.

Ugh!

-What? Too cheesy?

-[scoffs]

No way. I think I fell in love again.

Oh

-[squealing softly]

-[giggling]

Oh, my gosh.

What's going on?

Do you think they're dating?

How would he know I'm going to

the fifth floor without me telling him?

Wonder how he knew that.

Don't all residents go to the fifth floor?

It wasn't just today, though.

Yesterday, when I was having lunch,

I ran into him in at the café.

But everyone goes to the café.

He gave me this dreamy smile

while having coffee,

and then he looked back while he

walked away and smiled again.

You must've been acting weird.

And today, we ran into each other

on the elevator.

-Gosh, he must have deliberately timed it.

-Why don't you ask him if he's interested?

-I don't need to ask him. It's obvious.

-Obvious how?

The way he looks at me, the way he smiles.

His body's reacting before his brain can.

I know what it is.

He's in love.

When you're into someone,

actions speak louder than words.

Your body reacts spontaneously.

It's like an uncontrollable sneeze.

[Jae-il sneezes]

[sneezes]

[groans, clears throat] Getting a cold.

[sniffles, grunts]

The meeting's at 6:30?

We have so much to do.

Why do we gotta go to this?

We have to. There's so much I want to say.

Look at our scrubs. They've been washed

so many times, they're worn out.

And the on-call pay,

that's practically worker exploitation.

A year-long pay freeze is ridiculous.

Okay, but these meetings

aren't about that.

Then what are they for?

Why are we going?

You really don't know why?

You have no idea?

-What's the subject of the meeting?

-It's you.

[sighs] These are just a few

of the many reports we received.

This is just the tip of the iceberg.

First up. On April 22nd,

Professor Jo Joon-mo screamed at someone

for delaying a GS booking.

-Who was this about?

-Oh, he wasn't screaming.

He was just a little irritated at me.

-[sighs]

-I'm very sorry.

Second report.

On April 24th, Professor Jo Joon-mo

completely lost his temper

over a delay in a patient's echocardiogram

and reprimanded a resident.

Don't tell me this note

was about you as well. Was it?

It was me, but, I apologized right away.

-It's the only thing she does fast.

-Be quiet.

See? This is why we needed

to hold a meeting.

It's an established fact Professor Jo

is the most impatient person around.

There's nothing he hates more than delays.

Can't you try to be more punctual?

Yes, understood.

Dr. Oh isn't the only one having issues.

All you R1s are guilty

of the following infractions

Not greeting your seniors

in an appropriate manner,

complaining as soon as

the going gets tough.

If you're gonna have to do it anyway,

why not respond cheerfully

when I ask you to do something?

-[Jae-il] Got it.

-[Sa-bi] Noted.

-Wow! She's pretty uptight.

-She's still pretty young too.

Dr. Oh.

Is that understood?

Yes.

But how, um, are we suppose to

respond cheerfully if we're struggling?

[Da-hye] What'd you say?

I mean, it's not like we can

change the expression on our face.

It's just

we can't exactly be happy all the time.

[door opens]

Isn't the study session at 7:00?

Why are you so early?

Hi, everyone. Have the R1s had breakfast?

Hello, Doctor. Good morning.

Morning. What were you doing in here?

-Da-hye.

-Yes?

You aren't trying to hold any meetings,

are you?

[Da-hye chuckles awkwardly]

That kind of senseless punishment

has been banned.

It took a lot of work to get rid of them,

so you can't hold meetings anymore.

It's officially outlawed!

-Understood?

-Yes, understood, Doctor.

Aren't you gonna answer?

-Yes, Doctor.

-[all] Yes.

[chuckles]

Oh, that's right.

One of our patients

left this with the ward nurses.

It refers to a certain male resident,

and it's not me, so

-Whoa! Um Jae-il!

-Me? Is this for me?

She sends her thanks.

She even took down your name.

She wants to post a message

on the Shout-Out Board.

Professor Seo Jung-min

was so thrilled that she bought us these.

-Thank you, Um Jae-il.

-[Jae-il] Yep!

Cho-rong's mom from Mapo.

She runs a flower shop,

her husband sells cars.

Yes, that's the one. If Jae-il becomes

the star of the Shout-Out Board,

that'd be a first for OB-GYN R1s, right?

-[Eun-mi] Right.

-[Do-won] Not even I could swing that.

-The first? You mean it?

-I think so.

-This is great!

-Congrats!

Congrats.

It hasn't happened yet.

I'll congratulate you when it does.

Fine. You suit yourself. Mm.

I thought you would get it first.

Getting on the Shout-Out Board

It's probably beneficial

for the office conduct evaluation.

Even if it doesn't affect

other evaluations.

-The H1 evals are coming up.

-I don't think the professors really care.

The hospital where my friend works, gives

out coffee coupons for positive feedback.

That's not the point, though.

What's important, is that the patient

was comforted by my words.

Even though we shouldn't get

too invested in patients

-[yawning]

-Maybe you should try to be more invested.

-Well, what did you do exactly?

-Mm

When dealing with patients,

I really try to be sincere.

I try to empathize with them,

make sure every word

is infused with warmth.

-I'm starting to realize how important

-Okay, I get it. I'll see you later.

[Jae-il] Oh

I thought you were gonna say

something epic. See ya.

It is pretty epic, though!

-Even when I give tips

-You said speak with warmth?

So you mean I could be the star

of the board if I do that too?

Of course.

[cheerfully]

Oh, ma'am, hello.

How are you?

Uh

OBSTETRICS & GYNECOLOGY

EXAMINATION ROOM

ATTENDING DOCTOR: JO JOON-MO

This is the first time we've been

referred to a major hospital.

Hmm.

I'm sure you've already been informed,

but based on the biopsy results,

it appears you have endometrial cancer.

And the tumor in your uterus

is quite large,

which makes saving the uterus difficult.

[crying]

I was told it might've spread

to my ovaries. Is that true?

There does seem to be abnormal masses

on both your ovaries,

but right now, it's still unclear to us

whether these are metastatic

cancerous tumors from the uterus

or just benign cysts.

When it comes to ovaries, unfortunately,

we can't perform a biopsy before surgery,

so we'll need to take a sample

during the procedure

to ensure an accurate diagnosis.

[crying] Oh.

How is this possible?

[chuckles softly] I'm so sorry, Doctor,

my mom hasn't exactly

come to terms with this yet.

That's understandable.

First things first, we'll need to

admit you, and perform MRI and CT scans,

then we'll schedule

a surgery date as soon as possible,

so we can evaluate

the condition of your ovaries.

[knock at door]

Miss Geum Seon-mi?

-Yes, hello.

-I'll take you down for your MRI.

Okay, thank you.

[sobbing]

Mother,

after the tests and surgery, I'll be okay.

[melancholy music playing]

Mm-hmm.

I even fasted

before I got here. [chuckles]

I wanted to be sure

I could get the scans done.

At least I can get the MRI done too.

-That's a good thing, right? [chuckles]

-[crying]

Mom, it'll work out. Hmm?

I'm okay, so why are you still crying?

[mother cries]

JONGNO YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

Make sure to discuss

Miss Geum's symptoms thoroughly.

Go into detail about her uterine bleeding,

when it began and how often.

Okay.

[sighs]

Why do you do that?

Oh, this? It's just my hobby.

You know this.

She'll be nervous 'cause the surgery's

been scheduled suddenly.

-So make sure to comfort her.

-I'm not good at comforting patients.

As the physician, make sure to explain

everything and check on her frequently.

Consideration is the best form of comfort.

All right I'll do it.

You know, the patient's

putting on a brave face,

but her mother's kind of

She cried for half an hour

after the consultation was done.

When I tried talking to her,

she was barely able to listen.

[clicks tongue, inhales]

In instances like that

as the physician,

make sure to explain everything

and check on her mother frequently.

-Consideration

-Consideration's the best form of comfort.

-Very good.

-That's the issue.

How do I do that? I really don't know.

-You gotta figure that out yourself.

-[cell phone ringing]

Yep, coming.

[line disconnects]

Good luck.

[groans]

I saw somewhere

on the Internet [grunts]

that there's a new targeted agent

on the market.

Could that be something I could try out?

Ah

-A new chemotherapy drug?

-Yes.

The one I'm on feels much too strong.

It's really wearing me out,

I'm so exhausted.

I wonder if it's a side effect

of the drug. You think it is?

Oh. As a first-year resident,

I don't know.

I'll ask for you and report back, okay?

Ah, goodness.

It almost seems like

you know even less about this than I do.

[sighs, scoffs]

Uh [chuckles]

-Ah! Good morning! Hello there.

-Oh. [chuckles] Hello.

-It's tough, isn't it?

-Gosh. [chuckles]

It's important to keep

your stamina up during chemo.

You have to eat well and exercise a lot.

However, you're looking

better than you did three weeks ago. Hmm.

[chuckles] I was worried

I might not run into you here. [chuckles]

Hey, uh, Doctor,

I did want to say,

this round of chemo

is hitting me particularly hard.

I really feel like I'm dying right now.

Oh, you didn't finish your meal, did you?

It left a bitter taste in my mouth.

I'm so sick of this hospital food.

I know, but you must eat enough

and exercise a lot.

That's the best remedy, understand?

All right. I will, I will.

I'm gonna come see you again tomorrow,

whether you've eaten or not.

I'll eat more this time, okay?

-[chuckles]

-Keep fighting it!

Thank you. [chuckles]

[whimsical music playing]

Oh, gosh. [giggling]

Look, of course patients

aren't gonna be happy

if you stand there looking clueless.

I am clueless. What do I do?

Everyone here is well aware

that we're ignorant. They already know.

Even our transporter, Hwang Min-cheol,

doesn't trust us.

I honestly believe that nobody

in this entire hospital

trusts R1s here, nobody.

So let's dive a bit deeper into

my "warm words lesson," okay?

[sighs] Should I tell you or not?

I'll listen to you. Just spit it out.

You must eat well and exercise a lot.

What?

If you're not sure what to do,

just say this

"You must eat well and exercise a lot."

What, am I wrong? It's true.

Eating well and exercising a lot,

it's the shortcut to good health.

[sighs] Can't believe

I took you seriously.

-That's such useless advice.

-[patient] Oh. Doctor.

Oh, hello.

-How's your pain level?

-I still feel some pain today.

Improvement seems slow.

Oh. For now, you need to be sure

to eat well and exercise a lot.

-Have you exercised today?

-No, I haven't yet.

Ah, well, that's unacceptable.

You got to keep at it.

-Let's go for a walk now.

-[giggles] That would be a treat.

-It's like we're going on a date together.

-[both chuckle]

-Let's walk over to the annex.

-All right.

[Jae-il] You need to do this

when I'm not here too!

[chuckles] All right, I will.

[Jae-il] I'm gonna come

check up on you every day.

-Hey, Mom, listen to me.

-[sniffles] Hmm?

Nothing's wrong with my hands.

Doing this for you just helps me feel

a little bit better.

Oh, right.

They said the bed by the window

will free up around tomorrow,

so just wait a bit.

I like it here.

It's easy access to the hallway.

How can you like it here?

You're in the midst of it.

Don't make such a fuss, huh?

I'm close to the nurses' station,

and right by the restroom too.

[sighs]

[clicks tongue]

My daughter's always been so kind.

So kind and so positive

all the time, so why

Not again, Mom, here we go

-[sniffles]

-Everything will be okay.

-Hello there.

-Hello.

-[pants] Oh, hello.

-Hi, again.

-Is everything okay over here?

-Yes, all good. No worries.

So your surgery's scheduled in two days

during the afternoon.

It's the final slot for that day,

but if there are any delays

in the surgeries before you,

it could get pushed back.

Oh, so, she can't eat today

because of her tests,

and then she'll fast until late

on the day of her surgery?

It's much too hard on her body.

Uh, is it possible

to have it in the morning?

Unfortunately, it's too late for that.

We could reschedule it for a later date.

Is that preferred?

[scoffs]

No, we'll just stick to

the current schedule we already have.

All right then.

It's okay. I'm not that hungry.

I'm more worried about you

because you haven't been eating.

Doctor, could you please help me here?

Uh, ma'am, you must eat

to maintain your health.

-Understand?

-I can look after myself.

Oh, Doctor, uh,

how long is this surgery going to last?

Oh. If it's just the hysterectomy,

it'll take about 30 minutes,

but if there's metastasis, it could

take longer. Three hours, I believe.

We had the MRI scan earlier today.

Can you really not tell

if it's metastasized?

No, we can't, unfortunately.

Not from the MRI.

I mean, it's

This is a serious surgery,

you're opening her up!

How can you not know how long it'll take?

Or even what you'll be removing?

[scoffs] That's just ridiculous.

Actually, this kind of thing

is quite common in Gynecology.

Mom, things could turn out just fine. Hmm?

Right, Doctor?

My ovaries could be totally okay?

Uh, so I'm afraid

we won't know until afterwards.

That's all I can say for now.

[crying]

I'm afraid you made my mother cry again.

[cries, sniffles]

Miss Yang, that's enough crying!

-[Miss Yang] All right.

-Okay?

Oh, gosh, I don't know about that, but,

the day after tomorrow, okay?

Just let me go home

the day after tomorrow.

I'm sorry, miss, it's too early to know,

so I can't promise you that.

Regardless,

we need to reinsert your catheter.

-Your residual is over 400.

-Four 400?

What is this that costs so much money?

I I mean the urine in your bladder.

The urine needs to come out,

but it's not doing that.

Oh, gosh. How did you see that?

Oh, my goodness,

I must've forgotten to flush.

That's not [sighs]

Just to reiterate,

we'll be reinserting your catheter

and checking the residual tomorrow.

It needs to decrease

for us to discharge you.

Oh, this is terrible.

I have a wedding to attend in three days.

Oh, dear, what should I do?

Oh, I didn't want to jinx

such an important occasion,

so I didn't even tell my family

about this surgery.

Oh, what should I do now?

Look, I'll go to the wedding, right,

as if nothing's happened.

Please, Dr. Pyo,

is there a way to make that possible?

I would like nothing more

than to make it possible.

We need to bring down the number

or I can't discharge you.

Oh, but why

why isn't the pee coming out?

Uh

How about you, uh, give me some medicine,

or something?

Just fix me as quickly as possible.

I have to leave within three days.

-We have to wait and see.

-It's just pee

[groans] Oh, gosh.

Why do I still need to go?

That's not why actually.

It's all residual.

Excuse me

You're not eating well, are you?

[jaunty music playing]

Oh, uh

-I can't eat this hospital food!

-Then, no wonder.

From now on, it's important

to eat and drink lots of water.

And you also need to exercise frequently.

That's the only way you'll get discharged.

Oh, give me a break, woman.

You think I don't know that, huh?

My belly hurts where you cut it open,

and my knees are extremely sore.

If they're sore, you must

exercise frequently and eat all your food.

[clears throat]

You're right. I'll do it.

From today on

No, starting right now, I will do my best.

-Don't worry.

-Great. Thanks.

[Nam-kyung] I'm serious.

If it weren't for Jae-il,

I'd be arguing with that lady all night.

It really works. He's on to something.

What's the point

We read those books,

and cram all that useless info,

studying

It's irrelevant to real life.

I want to try your tip,

but haven't had a chance.

-[knocking at door]

-[door opens]

-[both] Hello.

-Oh, hello.

Wow, you guys have gotten

really close, huh?

You're even leaving together.

-Going somewhere?

-[both] Home.

Of course, yeah. Going home.

Off you go.

-[both] Bye.

-[Nam-kyung] Bye, Doctor.

You guys

-You hungry?

-Oh!

-You mean dinner?

-Yeah. Wanna go grab a bite?

Are you treating us?

[chuckles]

[playful music playing]

[slurps]

[slurps]

I'm glad you hung back. Thanks for that.

Eat up.

You should be thanking me.

What person would agree to this

instead of going home.

Yeah, that was a big faux pas.

Really, I just wasn't thinking.

I'm glad they were honest

and asked me to treat them another time,

instead of making up an excuse.

That way, no one feels bad.

[chuckles softly]

-You don't know Gen Ys then.

-Of course I do. I am one.

You are?

[slurps]

So why aren't you going home?

-I gotta watch a surgery video.

-Mm.

Why aren't you?

You wanted to eat.

-I was on my way out too, you know.

-That's right, sorry.

[slurps]

[sighs]

-You already finished eating?

-Yeah. Take your time.

It's okay. I'm full.

If you were planning to eat fast,

why ask me to come?

Okay, why'd you come along

if you weren't gonna eat?

Oh, well, that's because

I thought you were taking us

somewhere nice.

Not the hospital cafeteria.

I guess I gotta apologize again?

Sorry.

[sighs] So disingenuous.

[chuckles softly]

[indistinct chatter]

I'm looking for Hwang Gyeong-ju.

I heard my daughter collapsed.

I'm her father.

Oh, that way, please.

-[pants, groans]

-[gasps] Gyeong-ju.

What happened to you?

Are you in pain, what's wrong?

-[groans]

-Where does it hurt?

Tell me what happened. Are you okay?

Dad, I'm okay. It's no big deal.

[winces, exhales] I'm okay, it'll be fine.

-Please just go.

-[pants]

She was fine this morning.

Why is she sick all of a sudden?

Is it her appendix?

Um, it's not the appendix, no

[sighs] Then what is it?

OB-GYN

KIM SA-BI

[Sa-bi] The professor will be here soon.

She just finished a delivery.

What'd you say?

Hello there.

-You're in a lot of pain?

-[groans]

Let's check your belly.

[somber music playing]

[winces]

[gasps]

[gasping]

COUNSELING ROOM

I explained the procedure

to Miss Geum Seon-mi and her mother,

but she'd like another doctor

to explain it to her as well.

[Miss Yang] Oh

Because she keeps saying she doesn't know,

it's just [inhales sharply]

making me nervous.

All right, let me go over the procedure

with you, ma'am.

Great.

First, we will remove

the suspicious cysts on the ovaries

and send them out for an expedited biopsy.

Meanwhile, we'll remove

the cancerous growth

on the endometrium via hysterectomy.

Next, we'll decide whether

we need to remove the ovaries

depending on what we find

on the biopsy results.

Oh.

So, tell me,

are there any cases where

the ovaries are left alone,

because no cancer was found after all?

Uh, as we informed you earlier,

we won't have a response for you

until we start the operation.

No, what I mean is,

if the ovaries are okay,

and if they don't have to be removed,

uh, she won't need to have hormone

replacement therapy?

If she only undergoes a hysterectomy,

hormone therapy won't be needed.

Oh, so after the surgery's done,

my daughter will go back to normal,

and she'll be able to go back

to studying and working again?

Well, after the surgery,

radiation therapy or chemo treatment

is still required.

[Miss Yang] Oh, chemo

Ma'am, I understand this is difficult

Please tell me that something

will be okay.

[crying] Things will be fine

going forward.

How can your answer to everything

be that you don't know? [inhales deeply]

What has my daughter done to deserve this?

[melancholy music playing]

[sobbing]

All I need, is a speck of hope.

And to be able to tell her

everything's gonna be fine. [crying]

So that I don't have to feel so guilty.

[sobbing]

Oh, ma'am.

[knocking at door]

I was wondering who that was.

Come on, everyone in the hallway

can hear you crying.

Is this why you sent me on a walk?

-Please don't cry.

-[sniffles]

You're overreacting.

You're acting like someone died.

[gasps] How could you say that?

How could you say that to your mom?

You're right. I'm sorry. Now can we go?

You're embarrassing me

in front of the doctors.

-So sorry for this.

-[chuckles softly]

Next time, could you

just talk to me separately?

It's more tiring having

to calm down my mother.

Okay, Doctor?

Ah.

Yes.

HWANG GYEONG-JU

[Mr. Hwang] What were you thinking?

Gyeong-ju, say something.

I'm your father, answer me.

How could you keep this from me?

Do you even know who the dad is?

[sighs] Listen to me.

You're still

in your first year of college.

You can't be a full-time mother.

For now, we've hooked her up

to a tocolytic, sir.

Uh, we'll keep checking on you

for an hour

You gonna say anything?

You better talk now!

I told you I'll handle it!

So could you please leave now?

And if I leave, what?

Who's gonna help you?

I wonder who'll come here.

Your mother sure won't. No one.

[sighs]

I can't I [breathes heavily]

Does he know? That b*stard?

Does he know you're here?

I can't believe you'd do this to me!

Have you been doing this alone

this whole time?

Who's the dad? Tell me.

-Do you even know who the dad is?

-Stop it!

Dad, um I mean,

Grandpa, um, you need to calm down.

Give me your phone.

Give me your cell phone right now!

Gyeong-ju.

[somber music playing]

Are you him?

Is it you? [breathing heavily]

You as*h*le!

[Gyeong-ju] Yeong-chan

Gyeong-ju, you okay?

I'm sorry I'm late.

Shall we start now?

[muffled beating]

[Jung-min] You can hear

the heartbeat, right?

The baby's around 2.7 kilos,

and growing well.

Looks like mom's been doing a good job.

-This is the baby's head's right here

-[cell phone ringing]

Hello?

[sighs]

[Jung-min] This is the head.

Can you see the eyes and nose?

Oh. Yes, I can.

I can see them clearly.

The amniotic fluid volume looks good,

and the placenta's well-placed.

The baby's in a good position.

So far, everything's going great.

Ta-da!

Yoon Ae-shin from Haenam gave me these.

She says she wishes she had a daughter

so I could marry her. Gosh.

She has a daughter.

She was here yesterday.

Huh? I thought she had sons.

Oh. Hmm.

-I guess she forgot about her.

-Seriously, get in here!

Ask him. What do you have to lose?

What is it?

[ice cubes clinking]

This one

it's a guardian, isn't it?

[gasps]

-What'd I say?

-I thought you'd never ask.

Hm.

This is a tough one.

The patient's dad is in a rage,

and the so-called boyfriend's

looking like he's about to run off.

Yes, Kim Sa-bi already told you all that.

[clicks tongue] The thing with obstetrics,

it can get complicated because you have to

deal with the family and the baby itself.

But often,

the solution's relatively simple.

Just wait until baby's first cry.

[gasps]

Right, think back

to when you were an intern.

We got teary-eyed and emotional,

even with a stranger's baby.

So if it's your own child

or your grandchild?

Right now, he's upset with his daughter

and angry at the unexpected situation,

but he'll soften

once he hears the baby's cry.

Now that you mention it,

the patient's dad

did start answering questions

after hearing the baby's heartbeat.

I think he smiled a little too.

[claps] There you go!

When it comes to dads,

I mean, the granddad

No The dad of the patient, all you need

is the baby's cry as background music.

And you say "Congrats!

The baby is so beautiful."

And before you know it, happy ending.

The problem is

The boyfriend.

She needs help with the boyfriend.

Maybe he's scared.

He's just freaking out,

since he'll be a dad.

You become a mother just as suddenly.

I know, but, uh,

he didn't know she was pregnant,

so he hasn't had time to prepare and

Maybe he'll come back tonight or tomorrow,

once he's accepted it.

If he doesn't, he won't

get to hear the baby's cry.

How can you say it's an easy answer!

You're clueless.

-Why are you getting mad?

-You drank that coffee!

Yeah, what a waste!

I'll get you one tomorrow.

Oh. Let's go home. The shift's over now.

Okay, I'm going.

This is the only time she moves fast.

Hey, who are you running from?

[banging on door]

[door opens]

Where's Oh Yi-young?

Where is she? Don't tell me she left

after putting my surgery on hold again?

Oh, for goodness sake.

[mischievous music playing]

[sighs]

Hello, how are you?

Oh, hello there, how are you?

[sighs]

Where were you? Huh?

Why do you keep causing delays?

There's nothing I hate

more than surgeries getting pushed back!

-Yes, I'm very sorry.

-You and your damn apologies.

What good reason do you have

to make me operate this late at night?

This is causing delays in Urology. Know

how many complaints I've gotten today?

I was getting an echocardiogram.

But I'm still waiting.

What?

I already contacted Cardiology,

but they told me to wait.

So because you couldn't get the tests done

on time, you decided to just do nothing!

Is it too much to ask

to get the the tests done

and have the patients sent down

to the OR on time, is it?

Is that so hard?

It doesn't get any more basic than that!

If you can't even do this right,

then it means your heart's not in this!

Oh Yi-young, do you wanna quit?

Do you want to walk out?

Excuse me, Doctor?

Could I have some help over here?

Uh, sorry, it looks like

the IV fluid is leaking out.

Oh, um

I will have a nurse come over

and take a look for you right away.

It's a bit urgent.

Do you think Dr. Oh Yi-young could come

and take a look right now?

Why not?

Dr. Oh Yi-young, go ahead,

see to the patient.

Mm.

-Yes.

-Great.

[sighs softly]

That doctor back there seems really scary.

-He's not at all like that with us.

-Oh, yeah, he is. He's tough.

I was just walking by

but I thought of my daughter.

No one's great at their job

when starting out.

It's only by messing up that you learn.

I agree, but I mess up a lot.

Thanks for your help.

I know I shouldn't be saying this

to a person who's just been scolded,

but you're actually very lucky.

You get to do what you love,

you get to make mistakes,

and get yelled at.

[chuckles]

I just envy all of that.

[sentimental music playing]

If my daughter weren't sick,

she'd be somewhere getting scolded

by her boss, just like you.

And her mom would be waiting

for her to call

to complain about her job,

or anything else.

[breathes deeply]

I have no one to blame but myself.

I sent my baby abroad all on her own.

I was completely oblivious to her pain.

I bragged about how

she got into a great school

and how she was gonna become a lawyer too.

[sniffles] I don't even deserve to cry

[breathes deeply]

but I can't help it

every time I see her.

[man chuckles]

Let's go over there.

[sniffles] I've decided to stop crying.

How can a mother keep on crying,

when her daughter's being brave like this?

When I get to be her mother,

I'm gonna do all those things

I couldn't do for her

when we were apart.

From now on,

I'm gonna stay by her side

and never let her suffer alone again.

[sniffles] I'm gonna finally be

a mom to her.

[sniffles]

Uh, although there's nothing

I can do to help her,

when the professor finishes the surgery,

I will see if it's okay

to let you know what the results are.

That way you know whether the cancer

has spread to her ovaries.

That's nice of you to say that.

But it's probably not an easy feat.

Can

Can I

Can I ask you to do something else

for me instead?

[whimsical music playing]

Have you decided?

A plain Pong, please.

No, not that.

-I'll have a hot americano, please.

-A hot americano.

Dr. Ku's buying. Bang.

-A megaricano. Next!

-[register dings]

Iced americano. Oh, with an extra shot.

[register dings]

-A hot Earl Grey tea for me.

A large Pong Crush, thanks!

-With Honey Pong cereal and lots of honey.

I'll quit if I have to go overtime today.

Hey, is somebody dead?

Are you going to a funeral?

This is blue-black, not just black.

And it's in season.

I have a blind date later.

He's 32, and apparently,

his business is blowing up.

What does he drive again?

Anyway [sighs]

I really need this to go well.

People will stare!

Oh, stop it. They won't stare.

Have you looked in a mirror lately?

You're getting frumpier and frumpier,

like someone's who's completely broke.

Yes, I'll be right there.

-Oh, seriously!

Ms. Hwang's guardian, please come

-Already?

Ms. Hwang, are you in a lot of pain?

Please breathe.

Both the mom and baby are fine.

[sighs]

All ten fingers and toes are present.

Baby's breathing well. Everything is fine.

-[baby crying]

-Great.

[sighs] Thank you so much.

I appreciate everything.

You'll be able to see the patient

as soon as we get her cleaned up.

-We'll keep her in recovery

-[Yeong-chan] Excuse me!

[panting]

Uh

I'm very sorry.

Where were you?

You missed the whole thing!

How could you be so inconsiderate?

Why didn't you answer your phone?

Oh. It's off.

That was my mistake.

I was trying to bring my mom here,

but it didn't work out.

I'm sorry this happened.

Don't worry, she calmed down a little

after she slapped me.

I promise, once I deal with my family,

I will make sure my parents

come see their grandchild.

I promise they will come.

How is Gyeong-ju?

When will I be able to see her?

She's fine.

You'll be able to see her soon.

-Oh, Doctor, are you going somewhere?

-Yes, how did you know?

Your makeup is on point.

You look so pretty.

-You're like a different person.

-I have a date later.

Ah, I was wondering why

you're so done up today.

-[chuckles]

-Your new hairstyle really suits you.

Your makeup, your outfit,

the whole look is perfect.

[restrained chuckle]

I didn't do anything to my hair.

Ah

So, um, what did you need?

It's just one order.

Can you do it, please?

Uh

What did they say?

Well? Will I be discharged tomorrow?

We'll have to wait until tomorrow morning

to know for sure.

[groans] I guess it's a problem

with my pee again.

Okay, I'll be going.

What time in the morning?

Is it early or late morning?

Oh. So you'll have

the catheter in overnight,

remove it in the morning So that's

I'm guessing around 9:00.

Oh. No, between 10:00 and 11:00 a.m.

Or around 12:00 at the latest.

[gasps] The wedding is at 3:00.

So that means I can go!

[sighs] Well, we'll just have to

wait and see.

Ugh, I already know that much.

-All right, ma'am, take care.

-Wait!

Your face is as radiant

as a blooming flower. So pretty.

[chuckles]

-I bet you're going somewhere nice.

-That's right. I'll see you tomorrow.

Ma'am, please don't forget to eat

and exercise a lot.

Yep!

[chuckles]

-Hey, can you cover me?

-No.

-An antipyretic for Min Bo-ra, 1101.

-Still no.

You always say that

when you're gonna do it.

Hey, I'll set you up one day.

-I don't have time to do it.

-[sighs]

Why are you such a party pooper?

I need good luck!

-Party pooper?

-Can you do it just this once?

It's Min Bo-ra, okay? 1101.

-I said no.

-Thank you!

Min Bo-ra, Min Bo-ra, Min Bo-ra

She's in Room 1101.

Hey, doesn't the Shout-Out Board change

after three weeks?

-[cell phone ringing]

-It's strange.

Hello, Professor.

Geum Seon-mi's workup is done.

There've been some minor delays

in the surgeries today,

so I think we can start around 7:00 p.m.

Okay.

[disconnects call]

Surgery? Whose?

-Professor Jo Joon-Mo's?

-Yes.

If this surgery gets delayed again,

I'm screwed.

Isn't it still too early

to be heading over?

-[Yi-young] Doing her guardian a favor.

-What?

What is it?

She wants you to stay with the patient

outside the OR until they go under?

Because she's not allowed

to go in with her.

Gotta admit, that hallway

outside the OR is scary.

Guess you're more comforting

than a transporter she's never met.

It can't be that hard to do.

Wait a minute. You're not just gonna

stand there silently, are you?

-What should I say?

-Well, anything.

I'm not good at things like that.

[elevator chimes, dings]

With these things

JONGNO YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

[sniffles] I'll be waiting right here,

so you just go to sleep

and don't worry about a thing.

-[chuckles]

-Oh, my kind, clever girl.

[sniffles] Everything will be fine,

so don't you worry.

-Just trust your mom, okay?

-Okay.

I'm not worried at all.

I'm sure the doctors know

what they're doing.

So it'll be an hour and a half

for the uterus operation,

around three hours if they need

to operate on the ovaries.

-It's a piece of cake. Don't worry.

-Just 90 minutes.

[breath trembles]

It'll be over in the blink of an eye.

I'm sure of it.

[melancholy music playing]

Right, Doctor?

Yes, that's right.

I'll see you after the surgery.

Just please don't cry

while you're waiting for me?

[Miss Yang] I won't cry.

Why would I cry [chuckles softly]

when everything's gonna be just fine?

Please look after her for me.

Of course. If it's all right,

I need to take her in now.

[Miss Yang exhales] Okay.

See you soon.

HWANG GYEONG-JU

[gurgling]

[Yeong-chan] Mr. Hwang.

For what it's worth

I'll dedicate my life to this child.

Oh, and of course to Gyeong-ju, as well.

[chuckles]

[nurse] Excuse me, is the father here?

It's me. I'm the baby's dad!

[babies crying]

[crying]

I didn't see you in your daughter's room.

Did you go somewhere?

Oh, yes, only briefly.

Let me say

congratulations.

She's already incredibly cute.

Doesn't she look exactly like her mom?

Ms. Hwang's boyfriend seems

to be overjoyed too.

He's already a proud father, isn't he?

Congratulations, Mr. Hwang.

[sighs]

You're right.

I should be congratulated

at a time like this.

Sorry?

[somber music playing]

I should be happy I've become

a grandfather overnight, right?

I know I should be grateful

that the baby was born healthy,

and I know they'll be good parents.

I know life is a precious gift,

as the old saying goes.

But that baby in there,

who looks just like my daughter

A baby who's done nothing wrong

It's as if she's

an angel from heaven

who's come to drag my daughter down.

[somber music continues]

[Yi-young] There's so many surgeries

going on.

There are so many people in your shoes.

But, hey, at least you're not

in the intensive care unit.

Ah, so I'm lucky then?

Sorry?

If that's what

you're trying to say, don't.

I've already heard it before.

The fact of the matter is,

how unlucky must I be?

I'm the youngest one in here.

I'll be right by your side

the entire time you're in surgery,

so don't worry, put your mind at ease.

My goodness me,

that doesn't sound like you at all.

Words of encouragement

don't really work on me.

Can you go back to how you were?

Hey. Who put you up to this? Spill it.

You're right.

It was a colleague

by the name of Um Jae-il.

[Seon-mi chuckles]

[breath trembles]

[breath trembles]

Oh

What's going on?

It's okay, don't cry. It's okay.

Oh, I'm sorry, Doctor.

I'm so sorry.

I have a favor to ask you.

[gasps in pain]

[exhales]

-What is it? Are you in pain?

-No, it's okay.

Uh

Has she left?

Oh, my mother?

She'll be back tomorrow.

[groans]

Here are some clothes for the baby.

She said we'd need them.

Oh, please tell her thank you for me.

Mm.

Honey, are you in pain?

Is it that bad?

Should I call for the doctor?

[inhales sharply]

I [exhales]

-[groans] It's nothing.

-[door opens]

Hello.

Hello, Doctor.

Here.

[sighs in relief]

This is such a lifesaver, Doctor.

And there's more.

I feel so much better now. You're my hero.

Your father threw this in the trash.

I fished it out

and tried to return it to him,

but the contents look like

they're for you.

[soft music playing]

[Mr. Hwang] I talked to the new moms

being discharged.

They told me you'd need these.

If there's anything else you need,

let me know.

[sobbing]

[soft music continues]

[sobbing]

Uh

-Here.

-[sniffles, cries]

Are you okay?

-[sobbing]

-Does something hurt?

Everything's gonna be all right,

I promise.

-[sobbing]

-There, there.

I'm here. You're okay.

[sobbing]

[doctor] It's 7:20.

Could you give her ten more minutes?

I'd appreciate it.

No problem, we don't mind.

But will you be okay?

Even if we prep now,

it'll take more than half an hour.

Professor Jo Joon-mo isn't

gonna be understanding about this.

He'll start freaking out again.

It's fine. I'll let him know right now.

[line ringing]

Professor, about Geum Seon-mi's surgery

I'll be there in five minutes.

We'll start the surgery right away.

Oh, uh, I don't think

that's possible, Professor.

Why? What's the problem now?

It's me.

Uh

I forgot about

one of the lab tests this morning.

ABGA, ABGA.

ABGA.

-The ABGA.

-You forgot to do the ABGA?

Yes. And

Anesthesia is still running it now,

but it'll take time.

Hey! What's gotten into you again?

Where is your head?

I have a conference to attend later.

Didn't I tell you this operation

couldn't be delayed today?

I told you several times

that this surgery has to be on schedule!

Oh, seriously, I'm done with this.

You're so impossible to like!

I'm sorry. I'll make sure

this never happens again.

[yells] You idiot!

-Yes, I'm an idiot, sir. I'm so sorry.

-[line disconnects]

Thank you so much, Doctor. [sniffles]

I'll administer anesthesia now.

[sniffles]

[Joon-mo] The way the cysts were looking

worried me at first,

but they're both benign.

The bleeding isn't severe either.

I'll wrap up here, Professor.

[Joon-mo] Okay.

Do the gauze count, please.

JONGNO YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

[Da-hye on phone]

It's the first surgery tomorrow.

You haven't gotten consent?

-It doesn't get any more basic than this.

-I'm so sorry.

-I'll get to it right away.

-Okay.

Good morning!

Oh, my goodness!

It's already 9:00.

Oh, seems that I'm keeping you

very busy, Flower Doctor.

-Are you ready to start?

-Yes.

[sighs]

[Ok-im] It's okay.

Why is it still over 300?

It's okay if I don't go home today.

-I knew this would happen.

-Really? Are you experiencing pain?

I certainly have been.

I've been feeling bad bad for you.

Yesterday, I managed to walk 12 laps

in the hallway.

But at night,

I only managed to complete eight laps.

So that's 20 altogether.

Oh, ma'am, when I told you to

exercise

I was

I shouldn't have told you to do that.

Gosh, I had so little appetite

that I left all my food,

and I didn't do much walking either.

I may not be a doctor myself,

but even I knew

I wouldn't be able to leave today.

You told me about all these things

to keep up my health,

but somehow I didn't manage to.

[clicks tongue]

[sentimental music playing]

So, it's all my fault,

and you shouldn't feel bad, Doctor.

What about the wedding?

I feel bad that you can't go.

It's all right.

I called yesterday

and told them I couldn't make it.

-Just canceled it.

-Wait, you canceled the whole wedding?

If I'd done that from the start,

I wouldn't have put so much strain

on you. I'm sorry.

It's just too bad.

I really wanted to go.

[breathes deeply]

When you're young and in bloom

like you are now, Flower Doctor,

if you can't do something,

you just put it off for later.

If you miss your chance,

all you have to do is wait.

But later, when your life is wilting away,

all these experiences,

they're your final chances.

There is no next time.

Time has run out.

[sniffles]

So, see everything while you can,

and do everything you want.

That way, on your deathbed,

you'll have fewer regrets,

you won't have missed out.

Listen to me, Flower Doctor,

please live your life to the fullest.

Or you'll have many regrets, like I do.

Okay.

Don't worry about me, though.

From now on, I promise you

that I'll be walking as much as possible,

and I'll eat healthy.

Oh, about that, regarding the exercise

it's better to take it easy

at your own pace.

Uh, I'd say half an hour, twice a day.

That should be enough for now.

As for eating, a varied diet will do.

Just chew thoroughly.

And be sure to never overeat.

I'm sorry.

Come on now, Flower Doctor,

no need to apologize.

[chuckles]

-[knocking at door]

-[door opens]

My goodness, Ok-im,

what are you doing here all alone?

How could you get surgery

without telling us?

Doctor, my Ok-im, is she okay?

Yes. Her surgery went well,

and she's still recovering.

Mother! How could you not tell us

you were in the hospital?

The wedding can always be rescheduled.

Grandmother, you have any idea

how scared we were?

Ah, you're the granddaughter?

Uh, right, yes.

You must be so upset

about the cancellation.

It's all right. We can set another date

once she's out of the hospital.

It was so nice of you

to cancel on her behalf.

Uh Oh, of course.

We can't exactly have a wedding

without the bride.

Sorry?

[chuckles]

She thinks Actually,

the one getting married isn't her.

-She's not the bride.

-It's me.

[chuckles] I'm the bride.

[chuckling]

[uplifting music playing]

It wouldn't be a wedding,

if it didn't have a bride, now would it?

The wedding can only take place

if I'm there, that's for sure.

We were able to cancel the restaurant

and the photographer,

but couldn't cancel the rice cake order.

That's perfect.

Yeong, go and hand these rice cakes out

to the staff here.

Dear me, these good people work

around the clock

with barely anything in their bellies.

Give our Flower Doctor here two.

No, three!

Three? [chuckles]

Here you go.

Thank you very much.

-I appreciate it very much.

-Mm.

Hey, hurry.

Hurry! They're changing it now!

What? Changing what exactly?

[gasps]

[whimsical music playing]

Oh, my gosh.

SHOUT-OUT BOARD

[Sa-bi] It's not Um Jae-il.

No wonder his tips didn't work.

-A total waste of time.

-Did you really think he'd get it?

"Dear Nurse Oh Ji-yeong, you're always

the first to run over and lend a hand

and help me through my pain."

"Your touch provides far greater comfort

than words ever could."

"In addition to Nurse Oh Ji-yeong,

I also extend my gratitude

to all the other members of staff."

There you are, the other members of staff.

I even washed my hair this morning

so I could take a Linstagram selfie.

-It's not a total waste.

-What'd you mean?

Don't you know?

Our OB-GYN photo is today.

-Every department will be there.

-Really?

I hate group photos.

[groans]

[upbeat music playing]

-[both] Hello.

-Is everyone here?

[photographer] Could the third person

swap places with the first one, please?

Yes, that's much better.

Excuse me. The lady at the end?

Oh Yi-young.

You. You.

Yes. Could you move down one row,

if that's okay?

-[sighs]

-[photographer] That's it, thank you.

So, hey, why are we doing this in May

and not March?

Just in case anyone wants to quit, give up

or run away. Just giving them extra time.

[photographer] Everyone's looking good.

That way if they're still in the photo,

they're more inclined to feel embarrassed.

It's a good idea.

That way they won't quit.

Why isn't Gynecology coming?

They're in a conference

with the Department of Surgery.

They should be here in five minutes.

In that case, could you

take one of us first, please?

-Everyone, let's take one by ourselves.

-Ooh, shall we?

Photographer,

please take a photo of just us first.

All right then. Here it goes.

Oh, the residents, they all here?

Do-won. Where's Ku Do-won?

-I don't see the Chief around.

-I'm here. Everyone's here.

[pants] Sorry.

-[photographer] Is everyone here?

-Yes.

Right, here we go.

On the count of three,

everybody say "kimchi."

Excuse me.

How about we say "doctor"

instead of "kimchi"?

-[scattered chuckling]

-Always the clown.

-[Eun-mi] I like that idea.

-[Da-hye] I like it too.

Good idea.

Let's all say "doctor."

-[photographer] Sit up straight.

-Make sure you say "doctor."

-I'm gonna be watching you.

-Just wait and see.

[photographer] That's great.

I think I'll do something else.

[photographer] On the count of three,

everyone say "doctor."

One, two, three!

[all] Doctor!

THANKS TO OUR SPECIAL GUESTS

MOON TAE-YU AND HA YOON-KYOUNG

RESIDENT PLAYBOOK

Knock, knock. I've heard rumors

that you and I have the same taste.

-Is he dating anyone in the hospital?

-Oh Yi-young.

[Joo-young] You know anyone

interested in him?

[Jae-il] I like them a lot. Really.

-[Nam-kyung] You're really psyched.

-I'm psyched to be eating together!

-There's one person I like.

-Come on, tell me!

Oh Yi-young, how about you take this one?

[Sa-bi] It's unfair.

There are people who wanna do it.

Why should it go to someone who doesn't?

Why waste a good opportunity?

I can't do this.

[Nam-kyung] Oh Yi-young's burnt out.

I don't think Seo Jung-min's

gonna let this one slide.

[Sa-bi] Then who'll be attending

Seo Jung-min's surgeries? Should I?

[Jae-il] Be understanding. Be a friend.

[Yi-young] Who cares about friends?

I'm quitting.

I'm very sorry.

Whether or not we do something,

that isn't up to us.

If it's on behalf of the patient

and the baby, we'll do it.

[Jun-wan] I hope the baby will be

in the high two-kilo range.

[crying] Save my child, Doctor.

I just need to meet my child! I have to!

There's a cheat code for when you're

feeling as scared as you are right now.
