(soft acoustic music)
SABU: They say that life puts us to the test in two ways.
Either nothing happens
or everything happens all at once.
-NURSE 1: Coming through! -NURSE 2: This way.
-MR. KOO: Make way! -I'll take her now.
Okay.
FINAL EPISODE
Just a second.
It was really hard to start an IV for this patient.
Make sure it doesn't slip out.
DONGHWA: Yes, Doctor.
You should leave too, Dr. Areum.
This patient seems to be the last one.
I'll stay and look around a little more, so you should go ahead.
I'll look around so please evacuate first, Dr. Areum.
The Doldam ER is my responsibility.
The person in charge should be the last one to leave.
Shall I stay with you?
No, please evacuate with the others.
I'll go with the last team to leave.
Okay, I'll see you at the shelter.
Let's go.
-MAN: Let's hurry up. -WOMAN: Are you hurting anywhere else?
NURSE 3: Yes, this way.
-Please be careful. -Let's go.
-NURSE 4: Let's move. -PATIENT: Yes, thank you.
EUNTAK: Yes, Nurse Oh.
I just came over to Doldam.
I understand, I'll take a look upstairs.
(Areum gasps)
-Please evacuate first. -NURSE 5: Yes, sir.
Nurse Oh, both the ICU and individual ICUs have been cleared.
Just to be sure, could you check the inpatient rooms one last time?
Yes, Nurse Oh.
You two help transport the flammable drugs.
NURSE 6: Yes, Nurse Oh.
Nurse Oh.
Nurse Euntak, how is the Trauma Center?
All patients there have been evacuated.
The remaining trauma staff will evacuate after one last inspection.
Please take care of the DMAT bag, Nurse Euntak.
MYEONGSIM: There may be a shortage of drugs in the shelter
so work with the emergency rescue team to pack as much as you can.
Yes, Nurse Oh.
ADMISSION DESK
Are you looking for something?
I don't see Master Kim anywhere.
He was the first to leave after the operation.
He didn't come up here.
I'll take care of the DMAT bag first.
Okay.
NURSES STATION
(suspenseful music)
Hurry up, you guys.
INSU: Pack important documents only.
Yes, Dr. Jung.
INSU: Quickly.
I hope nothing bad happens.
I really hope we can come back.
GITAE: Please come to the back! We'll move in teams. Mr. Lee!
(coughs)
The Doldam team will go in this car.
-Keep looking. -Check there and come back.
-Yes, sir. -CHIEF PARK: Check and come back.
(sirens wailing)

HEAD OF THE FIELD CONTROL TEAM

Are you okay? Let me help you.
-INSU: Dr. Ung, can you take this? -SEONUNG: Okay.
Why aren't you leaving?
Master Kim isn't here.
(tense music)
ROUGH ROCK PROJECT NS
TREATMENT FROM THE HEART HOPE, LOVE, SERVICE
Are you all ready to evacuate?
I think all of the patients have been evacuated from Trauma Center and Doldam.
The rest of the staff are checking the hospital rooms one last time.
The ICU on the second floor has been taken care of,
and all the highly flammable drugs and oxygen tanks have been transported.
All right, we will start evacuating the medical staff now.
MINGUK: Doldam Hospital staff will go to the shelter,
and Trauma Center staff will go to the community health center
to take care of any injuries that arise and any patients.
All right, let's move!
Let's go first. This way!
HOJUN: I'll hold the door on this side. (grunts)
HOJUN: Slowly.
INSU: Director!
MINGUK: Yes, Dr. Jung?
Master Kim is nowhere in sight.
What?
(pensive music)
Here.
(breathes heavily)
Nurse.
Has everyone from the Trauma Center evacuated?
I'm not sure. I just finished evacuating patients.
Oh, okay.
(phone vibrates)
MS. AREUM
(soft music)
What do I do? (exhales shudderingly)
-(phone vibrates) -(Areum groans)
(breathes heavily)
-(door opens) -INSU: Nurse Euntak!
Master Kim left the operation room earlier, right?
Yes, he left before me.
EUNTAK: Why?
Is he not in his office?
He's not there.
His coat is still there, and there's no sign of him coming over.
INSU: No one has seen him either.
I'll check the ICU on the second floor and the general ward again.
Can you look around the Trauma Center again?
Yes, I'll do that.
INSU: Areum, hurry up and evacuate.
Let's go, quickly.
(door opens)
(door closes)
(coughs)
(Eunjae sighs)
It looks like the fire is spreading toward us already.
(Eunjae sighs)
What do we do?
WOOJIN: It's going to be okay.
(approaching footsteps)
(coughs)
Dr. Seo.
Nurse Euntak.
-What is it? -I can't find Master Kim.
EUNJAE: What?
(tense dramatic music)
(Eunjae coughs)
I'll look in the hallways. (coughs)
I'll check inside.
Okay.
Seo Woojin!
What are you still doing here? Why didn't you evacuate yet?
I already checked upstairs so hurry up and evacuate.
Master Kim…
Master Kim is missing.
(pants)
Master Kim! (coughs)
EUNJAE: Master Kim!
Master Kim?
EUNTAK: Master Kim!
Master Kim!
(Dongju coughs)
Okay, I understand.
We checked around the consultation rooms, locker rooms, and bathrooms
but he wasn't there.
I just spoke to Chief Jang too.
No, Master Kim hasn't come out yet.
I don't see him
out here.
Where on earth did he go?
Nurse Oh, Dr. Bae, and Dr. Jang. You three should evacuate first.
I'll check the second floor again.
I have to grab some things from my office. Please go first.
Nurse Oh.
(Donghwa pants)
OPERATING ROOM 1, OPERATING ROOM 2
(soft music)
Nurse Euntak.
I just found Master Kim.
(panting)
I'll evacuate with him,
so please evacuate with the rest of the doctors.
Is he sick or injured?
Okay, Nurse Oh.
You too, please be careful.
(exhales loudly)
They found him? Where?
(exhales loudly)
Okay.
I'll evacuate with Cha Eunjae. You should evacuate too, Nurse Euntak.
-DONGJU: Master Kim! -(phone vibrates)
(coughs)
DR. SEO WOOJIN
WOOJIN: We found Master Kim. Please evacuate quickly.
(exhales loudly)
HEAD OF TRAUMA CENTER'S OFFICE
What are you doing here alone? You should evacuate.
Hey, Nurse Oh.
I just
wanted to look around.
My gosh. Come to think of it,
you've saved a lot of people here.
MYEONGSIM: You practically
chased after people standing at death's door
with a scalpel
and rescued them.
(chuckles softly)
To tell you the truth,
I holed up in Doldam Hospital
because I was tired of and disliked the way of the world.
People began to flock over
after you came here.
I know better than anyone else
that you want to leave the Trauma Center
as your pupils' dreams.
MYEONGSIM: I also know Professor Cha Jinman and Dr. Kang Dongju
are both skillful surgeons
and have great potential.
However,
I think there's a difference
between being skillful
and being gravitational.
Gravitational?
Your gravity
pulled everyone here, Master Kim.
Even if the forest fire passes
and Doldam Hospital becomes ashes,
Team Doldam will last forever
as long as your gravity is around.
(chuckles softly)
Well, there's nothing I can do for you about this situation, but…
I was afraid your blood sugar might be low.
Cheer up.
(laughs)
(uplifting music)
(laughs)
-(laughs) -(Sabu laughs)
(thunder rumbling)
-Please open the door. -This way.
-Slowly. Be careful. -(coughs)
(thunder rumbling)
DOLDAM HOSPITAL
Chief Park!
Is that a cloud
or smoke up there?
(rumbling)
You heard that too, right?
(thunder rumbling)
EUNJAE: What?
(gasps)
It must be raining.
(Eunjae gasps)
I felt a raindrop just now. What about you?
I think I just… Oh, it's cold. I just felt another raindrop.
HOJUN: Rain?
-What? -DOIL: What?
(exclaims, laughs)
Look!
(staff members exclaiming, laughing)
GITAE: It's raining!
Chief Park, it's raining!
-It's me. -STAFF: It's raining!
Is it raining over there too?
CHIEF PARK: Yes, okay. Got it.
It's been raining for ten minutes in the city too.
The fire is slowly getting under control over there.
If the fire is getting under control, does that mean Doldam Hospital is safe?
The evacuation order will be in effect until tomorrow morning,
but if it keeps raining like this, the fire will be contained.
Thank you!
GITAE: Thank you so much!
(laughs)
We're saved!
We're saved now!
We're saved!
(all cheering, laughing)
DOLDAM HOSPITAL
-(all cheering, laughing) -GITAE: We're saved, everyone!
Hey, Dr. Ung, we're getting wet. Get inside, quickly!
HOJUN: Let's go in, hurry up!
Hey, Jang Donghwa!
Hurry up and come here!
Come over here!
-What are you doing? -Get over here!
DONGHWA: For a long time, I couldn't forget about that moment.
Even the meaningless rain
started to become meaningful.
(phone vibrates)
Chief Jang just texted me.
What?
(gasps) He says it's raining outside right now.
It's raining?
The forest fire warning level has gone from alert to caution too.
(laughs)
Goodness.
FOREST FIRE NEAR SABUK-EUP WARNING LEVEL LOWERED TO 'CAUTION'
Oh, my gosh! The fire is getting under control now!
We're safe.
That means our hospital is safe now, right?
See? I told you everything would be okay.
What a relief!
(sighs)
I was really scared this time.
(sighs)
EUNJAE: Gosh.
(Eunjae breathes shudderingly)
(sighs)
(rain pattering on window)
You received the text too, right?
The warning level went down to caution.
But the evacuation orders
will stay in effect until tomorrow morning.
It looks like the rest of us will have to stay
and watch the hospital until tomorrow morning.
Actually,
I have something to say.
I'm sorry.
I never imagined you would be waiting for me
with that expression.
EUNTAK: And that's how you must've looked that day too.
You must have been so anxious and restless
waiting for news of my safety.
I didn't take that into consideration.
I'm sorry for being inattentive.
I thought
everything would be better if I liked you.
I don't know why my heart hurts more the more I like you.
I keep relying on you
and expect more from you,
so I get even more upset and have a harder time.
So…
I gave you a hard time with words I didn't even mean.
I'm…
such a fool, right?
I think so too, really.
I'll do better.
I may be far from a perfect boyfriend,
but if that's okay with you,
you can rely on me a bit more.
I'll make sure
not to upset you
or give you a hard time. So please…
Let's not break up.
(soft music)
I'm sorry for saying this in an uncool way,
but…
I love you.
Very much.
Very deeply.
("I Will Stay With You" by Gummy)

YOON SEOJUNG
Hi, Seojung, it's me.
Nothing much.
The junior surgeons?
Well, they're skillful, but they challenge me now and then.
(laughs)
What do you mean? When have I ever challenged Master Kim?
By the way,
when are you coming?
I miss you.

VOLUME 16 DREAMERS
I didn't have a dream. I just had a goal
to become a doctor like my parents wanted.
However, I felt at a loss after I became a resident.
It doesn't suit me. I don't know if I should keep doing this or…
-(Seonung slurps) -(sighs)
You're not listening to me, are you?
I was listening.
I'm eating with my mouth
and listening with my ears.
SEONUNG: So what?
Did you figure out the answer
to your concerns?
(slurps)
How long do you plan on staying at Doldam Hospital, Dr. Ung?
Forever, as long as they don't kick me out.
-Why? -Well…
Because it's fun.
It's fun?
When you're here, you keep wanting to do something
and have all kinds of dreams.
-EUNJAE: Master Kim. -Hey.
What's going on?
Assemblywoman Ko had an accident
while inspecting the fire site.
EUNJAE: The aide and attendant who went out with her were injured.
All of the ambulances are out because of the fire,
so she brought the injured herself.
I see.
EUNJAE: Assemblywoman Ko seems to only have light abrasions.
What about the other injured people?
Dr. Seo, Dr. Jung, and Nurse Euntak went outside.
INSU: We have a patient!
(tense music)
(pants)
We'll take them to Trauma Bay.
Go, quickly. Now.
SABU: Hurry.
INSU: One, two, three!
WOOJIN: Carefully.
One, two, three!
WOOJIN: We'll remove the belt.
Can someone wipe the mud off?
Bring surgical pads, please. I'll wipe it off.
Nurse Oh, call Dr. Nam Doil, please.
Dr. Nam should be on his way to Seoul Hospital with Paramedic Heo.
Oh, right.
Professor Sim Hyejin is back.
Professor Sim Hyejin?
She should be at the shelter right now.
I'll try calling her.
Nurse Oh, Jungil Hospital is close by, so please call Dr. Yang too.
Yes, Master Kim.
Let's get a CT for both patients and check their conditions first.
-Master Kim. -SABU: Yes?
-There's no staff left in the hospital. -What?
The fire may be under control,
but the evacuation order won't be lifted until tomorrow morning.
The OR, ER, and ICU staff have all evacuated
with the patients.
(machine beeps frantically)
He's in cardiac arrest!
I'll go up.
Nurse Euntak, 1 mL of epinephrine, please.
I'll start intubation.
Nurse, call Nurse Oh
and ask how long it'll take for the radiologist to get here.
Yes, Master Kim.
WOOJIN: I think it's the liver area,
but there's not a lot of bleeding.
I think there's blood above the diaphragm.
So hemothorax?
So we should put in tubes until he's stable and pack him in the OR.
Let's do a foreign body removal first and then ligation for the bleeders.
Dr. Jung, do a rhythm check.
Yes, Master Kim.
He's in asystole.
Let's switch.
-Master Kim. -SABU: Yes?
Fortunately, the radiologist is in the hospital and will be here soon.
Professor Sim Hyejin and Dr. Yang
will arrive in seven and ten minutes, respectively.
You heard that, right?
Until then, let's keep these patients alive no matter what. Okay?
-BOTH: Yes, Master Kim. -BOTH: Yes, Master Kim.
-Nurse Oh, let's put in tubes first. -MYEONGSIM: Okay.
(pants)
I'll do a rhythm check.
What kind of patients do we have?
They were seriously injured by a falling tree
while trapped at the site of the fire.
Why didn't you page me when we have two patients?
They just came in.
There's an evacuation order in place, so we're the only staff
in the hospital right now.
They're also patients who meet the appropriate trauma classification.
-What about the portable X-ray? -It should be here soon.
-STAFF: The portable is here! -Scan the foreign body patient first!
Let's switch!
How long has it been?
About 15 minutes.
-DONGJU: Did you give him epinephrine? -INSU: Yes, we did.
STAFF: Scanning now.
All right. Rhythm check.
DONGJU: Asystole!
Ms. Ko, let's take you to the Observation Area.
We have to treat your wounds
and run some tests to check if you have any other injuries.

(Kyungsook grunts)
-INSU: They're still in surgery. -(Kyungsook gasps)
Ah…
Fortunately, the patient that went into cardiac arrest was resuscitated,
so they're operating on both patients in the ORs right now.
Oh, my.
Are you feeling better?
I'm okay.
But…
have they been operating all night?
Yes.
That's our job.
-(clock ticking) -(soft music)
SABU: Suture.
DONGJU: Is it bothering you a lot?
SABU: It's just a habit of mine.
It's not worn out yet,
so don't worry too much, Dr. Kang Dongju.
(Sabu grunts)
DONGJU: I guess you're right.
You're still quite nimble.
SABU: I told you.
Cut.
DONGJU: Cut.
SABU: All right. I finished my part of the surgery.
DONGJU: Thank you for your hard work.
Master Kim.
If you
hadn't shown me this much,
I would have never known this was possible.
SABU: You're wrong.
You would have known.
Because even from the beginning, you were a capable person.
(light music)
(soft chuckle)
SABU: The moments that I thought would never connect in my life
started to connect one by one.
WOOJIN: Suture.
SABU: The things I thought would just pass by
are starting to become meaningful, one by one.
All right.
SABU: Gosh, so heavy.
Hello, I'm a doctor named Master Kim.
There's an emergency patient I need to operate on right now.
I really need you here, Ms. Oh Myeongsim.
SABU: Can you come?
I wish to perform a combined surgery in the OR…
with you.
How many patients have you killed?
(pants)
(flatlines)
(pants)
SABU: Hey! Who are you?
INBUM: I'm Do Inbum, a general surgeon.
INSU: Coming here was already a drastic change for me.
The crucible of chaos itself. I don't want to keep enduring it.
-Hey, Dr. Geodae. -Yes, Dr. Geodae here.
SABU: Dr. Jung Insu.
Yes, Master Kim?
From this point onward,
you're in charge of Doldam ER.
I'll take care of it. Don't worry.
(inaudible)
WOOJIN: However,
I need money.
How much can you give me?
(laughs)
Are you trying to kill someone?
If you're going to be like that, quit being a doctor!
SABU: And now,
that meaning is taking shape and becoming tangible.
It's the moment when dreams come true.
(chuckles)
MYEONGSIM: And the moment a dream comes true,
you'll encounter another reality
because life goes on, regardless.
SABU: At least people who have achieved their dreams once know how to do so.
Somehow, they'll find a way to get through reality again.
So…
what are you dreaming about now?
That's a secret.
Don't tell me
you're planning on making us lose our minds again, are you?
(chuckles)
Maybe, maybe not.
It won't be fun if I give you a spoiler in advance.
What?
Let's go.
(laughs)
KYUNGSOOK: Why aren't you saying anything?
Isn't this an opportunity for you?
KYUNGSOOK: "Why do you think we need a Trauma Center?"
"How do you feel after experiencing it?"
Isn't this situation a great opportunity for you to ask these questions?
I think you know
without me asking.
(scoffs)
Assemblywoman Ko.
What's the point of reconstruction
and building new cities
if there's no hospital to go to when you're sick?
There's no pediatrician
to go to even when a child is sick
and ERs that can provide CPR for cardiac arrest patients
are disappearing.
Forest fires aren't the only disasters.
Having no hospital to go to in a life-threatening situation
and ending up dying in an ambulance after wandering the streets for hours.
That's a disaster too, Ms. Ko. Do you understand?
SABU: I know.
There are choices
that seem like losses.
When you think about
the many important, conflicting choices you'll have to make in life
and what you'll base those decisions on,
many people will weigh the pros and cons
and choose the option that won't end up in a loss.
If you feel ashamed in your mind, you shouldn't ignore it.
Even if it's a tough and foolish decision,
you should make it unashamed and with confidence.
What kind of hope can exist in a country
where schools collapse and hospitals disappear?
What happened to your son
is heartbreaking,
but don't turn a blind eye to what you have to do
using his death as an excuse.
Don't be political, do politics.
Properly and honestly.

-No one caused any trouble, right? -No.
HYEONJEONG: Master Kim!
-Hi, Nurse Eom. -Thank you for your hard work.
-You must have worked hard all night. -Thank you.
-You're welcome. -GITAE: Master Kim.
Oh, Chief Jang.
-Did the surgery go well? -Yes, of course.
What happened to the evacuation order?
It was already lifted 30 minutes ago, so everyone is returning now.
(laughs)
-DOIL: Hello, everyone! -Hey, Doil.
You're already at work, Master Kim?
He spent all night operating.
My gosh.
-I'm not even surprised. -(chuckles)
What about Paramedic Heo?
I safely escorted him
and came back in the same ambulance.
I see.
Now that Professor Sim is back, I'll put down my things and…
Oh, right. I need to reorganize Come and Go.
You're opening Come and Go again?
Come on. I may not seem so, but I have a lot of regulars.
Even Dr. Yoon Seojung approved of our rice cake instant noodles.
(chuckles)
Oh, you're all here.
My gosh, I guess the surgery is over now.
GITAE: Thank you for your hard work, Nurse Oh.
Thank you for your hard work.
You said you couldn't do two surgeries in a row,
but you worked hard all night.
Isn't it a regular occurrence?
Gosh, I'm so tired.
Would you all like some coffee I made in the lounge from the finest coffee beans
to relieve some fatigue?
I quit drinking coffee.
I prepared some yuja tea from Jeju Island as well, Nurse Oh.
I'll take a cup of that then.
-(in English) Hot or with ice? -(laughs)
I guess you're still taking those English lessons.
(in Korean) I pay close attention to vocabulary.
-(laughs) -(all laugh)
Would you like some too, Master Kim?
Sounds good. Let's do that.
It's been a while since the last time the hospital wasn't so busy…
(suspenseful music)
-Master Kim. -Yes?
MYEONGSIM: Why are you being like this, this early in the morning?
I came out of an operation just now.
(groans)
There's no such thing as a jinx or whatever.
All of that is just a coincidence, a superstition.
There's no such thing in the world--
(phone rings)
-(snorts) -(phone continues ringing)
(phone continues ringing)
Yes, this is Doldam ER.
Yes. (chuckles)

Yes, I understand.

Well,
they say it isn't a big injury, just a minor one.
(chuckles)
Nurse Eom.
Please page Dr. Yoon Areum, quickly.
Also, quickly page our fellow Dr. Lee Seonung and Dr. Jang Donghwa too.
Yes, Master Kim.
I'll go get changed first.
Let me know if you need to operate.
Oh, yes.
I suppose
people aren't the only things you pull in with your gravity.
Right?
(laughs)

-GITAE: Thank you. -POSTMAN: Have a nice day.
Chief Jang.
Is my package here?
Let's see.
Oh, it's here.
Thank you.
(sighs)
(solemn music)
I guess you haven't been contacted yet?
Yes, well,
budget reviews usually take a while.
I'm sure it'll go well.
Don't worry too much.
Everything is based on results.
My efforts won't be in vain
as long as the budget review goes through.
Well, it's not always like that.
MYEONGSIM: Regardless of the results,
we'll keep moving forward.
That's how we've always been.
Are you comforting me in advance?
I'm saying thank you for everything you've done.
Thank you for your hard work, Director Park Minguk.
Thank you, I suppose.
(soft music)

("Beautiful Day" by Doyoung)
(gasps)
(in English) Okay.
-What are you doing? -I'm clearing the desk.
Oh, Dr. Jang's clinical rotation ends this week.
It's already been that long?
Yes.
I see.
Speaking of which,
we're hosting a farewell party for Dr. Jang Donghwa this Saturday,
May 6th.
SEONUNG: You're free, right?
What's the date again?
SEONUNG: May 6th.
Dr. Jung, Dr. Ortho, Dr. Yang, Dr. Areum, Nurse Euntak,
Nurse Eom, and Nurse Joo
are joining us at Come and Go that day.
(quirky music)
It's okay. You don't have to come if you're busy.
Come on. Dr. Seo is your senior. Of course he'll be coming.
(clears throat)
You're coming, right?
-EUNJAE: No, I can't go. -(sighs)
What should I do? (groans)
I have an important appointment that day.
I see. (sucks teeth)
That's too bad. All of the other doctors are coming.
Dr. Seo Woojin said he would come too.
What? Seo Woojin?
Seo Woojin said he would go?
Yes, he's Dr. Jang's senior so of course he has to go.
Oh.
I see. (soft exclaim)
Okay.
(knocking)
Come in.
What brings you here?
I'm here to say farewell.
My rotation ends this week.
Yes, I heard.
Take a seat for a second.

What is this?
Open it.
SABU: I was
originally going to give that to your older sister.
Oh…
How long have you known?
I actually didn't know
until Dr. Nam Doil told me.
SABU: That's why
it looked
so familiar.
(chuckles)
♪ The box would be empty ♪

In truth, I became a doctor
to fulfill my sister's dream.
After she died,
my parents had a really hard time.
So I told them I would become a doctor in her stead.
-(soft chuckle) -DONGHWA: After they heard that,
they laughed for the first time in a while.
(both laugh softly)
However,
I'm still not sure
if I am truly living my life,
or if I'm just living my sister's life.
So…
you're going to quit being a doctor?
No,
I can't do that because I studied so hard for this.
Then what?
DONGHWA: I just
don't have the courage to live a life as you have.
That's fine.
There's no need to live as someone else has.
You just need to live your own life.
(soft music)
Yes, your era
is definitely different from the one I've lived in.
It isn't an era where you get rewarded for all your efforts.
The competition is incredibly intense
and the path you need to take keeps getting narrower.
However, Dr. Jang Donghwa,
you won't find the answer you're looking for
anywhere in this world.
So don't look for an answer.
Look for something you want to do, okay?
Find something you can do happily because you really like doing it.
That will be
your answer.
(clears throat) Here.
The list of people attending the farewell party for Dr. Jang.
All of them are attending,
including Dr. Cha Eunjae.
ALL: Ooh!
-(door opens) -Including Dr. Cha Eunjae?
Of course I should go.
After all his hard work,
I can't just let him go without a proper farewell.
By the way,
when are you two having a housewarming party?
(quirky music)
AREUM: Excuse me.
Nurse Joo?
Oh, right!
You two moved recently. You should have a housewarming party.
Nurse Eom.
Why don't we do both on that day?
It isn't easy for us to get together like that.
We should have the housewarming party
and Dr. Jang's farewell party on the same day.
(exclaims) I approve!
Me too.
(laughs awkwardly)
One moment, please.
Can I have a word with you?
(laughs) It's going to be fun.
AREUM: How could you just say that out loud?
Why? I thought you said they moved together?
(gasps) Wait, was that supposed to be a secret?
I didn't hear it from them directly either.
I happened to figure it out and mentioned it,
but if you publicly announce it like that…
Oh, so it was like that.
Oh, no.
Wait.
Dr. Seo and Dr. Cha
are dating?
(groans, sighs)
(laughs)
What?
I see…
-Was it you? -No, it wasn't.
Maybe you got caught.
No, it wasn't me this time.
STAFF LOUNGE
Why did you suddenly say you were going to the farewell party?
I can't miss out on Jang Donghwa's farewell.
I heard you were going too!
I was just going to show up for a bit.
As if that would work.
Once you start drinking, you'll get excited
and there will be second and third rounds.
I don't want to sit pitifully at home alone among candles.
-Were you disappointed? -(sighs)
Sure.
Jang Donghwa worked hard,
and it's natural for you to attend the farewell party as his senior.
That's the right thing to do, but…
Should I not go then?
(playful music)
You startled me!
(chuckles) You two were here.
Right. I heard Dr. Jang's farewell party is this Saturday.
You two are coming, right?
-No-- -EUNJAE: Yes, we're going.
We have to go since we're his seniors.
But when are you two having a housewarming party?
Tell me if you need anything for a housewarming gift.
It's more practical to buy something you'll need
than to pick something useless.
Bye then.
It can be something expensive!
What's going on?
Does everyone in the hospital know we moved in together?
Should we just do it?
The housewarming party.
AREUM: What kind of house do you want to live in later on, Euntak?
Would you like your own house, an apartment, or live in a villa?
What about you, Areum?
Even if it's small,
I'd like someplace with a yard so I can raise a dog.
I want to have many houseplants too.
Why?
If there's a yard,
it'll be harder to manage than you think.
I mean…
When I have a child later,
I thought it would be nice to raise a dog as well
so they can run around together.
Oh.
What I mean is…
I'm not trying to pressure you in any way.
I'd like a house
with a yard too.
-What? -A child
and a dog…
(cheeful music)
…will be nice too.
Should we
order some cheese balls too?
-Oh. -We ordered a lot of chicken, so…
I'll make the order.
AREUM (squealing): What do I do?
-Pop! Pop! -(laughter)
-Wow. -The house is so cozy and pretty!
It's perfect for two people to live together!
YEONGMI: By the way,
you two don't seem to clean up as much as I thought you would.
But I did clean up a bit.
People are all the same. Have a drink, Nurse Joo.
Okay, thank you.
Dr. Jang Donghwa.
Thanks for all your hard work
and you've done well.
MUNJEONG: You're coming back to Doldam after you pass the board, right?
About that--
Of course.
He must come back. It wouldn't be right if he didn't.
I'm telling you, Dr. Lee knows what's up.
MUNJEONG: I've known that ever since Elizabeth started liking him.
SEONUNG: I, Lee Seonung, the man chosen by Elizabeth
will have a drink.
Have a drink, Dr. Lee.
-Please pour me one. -AREUM: We're here!
Hey, come in!
-Take a seat. -The fried chicken is here too!
-Yes! -Welcome!
-All right. -Fried chicken!
-Sorry I'm late! -Hey, what took you so long?
I had a patient.
-INSU: Hurry up and sit down. -Okay.
-Fried chicken? -Yes, sit down.
(indistinct chattering)
(laughs)
(exclaiming)
Have a drink.
-INSU: Drink up. -Thank you!
DONGHWA: Honestly,
I'm still not sure
if I can do this job,
if I want to keep doing this job,
or if I want to stop doing it.
-Excuse me, Dr. Seo? -Yes?
Why did you become a doctor?
To make a living.
Isn't it hard?
Is there a non-hard way to live?
I've never seen anyone live an easy life.
Why Doldam Hospital though?
Because the people I like are here,
and I can do what I do well here.
That's enough for me.
Is that all?
I'm with people I love.
What more could I ask for?
SABU: Jang Donghwa.
There is no such thing as a choice you're forced to make.
You make a choice,
because you're that kind of person.
DONGHWA: Speaking of which,
I actually
decided to do another round of rotation.
At Doldam Hospital.
I'm staying for another four months.
-What? -What?
Then what are we doing here today?
It's not a farewell party?
MUNJEONG: In that case…
It's a welcoming party!
-A welcoming party! -Hey!
No, that's not right.
It's just a housewarming party.
-Right. -No.
It's Dr. Jang's welcoming party.
Come on, it's a housewarming party.
Can't we just do both?
-Yes, exactly! -Yes!
Congratulations.
-Congratulations. -Congratulations.
Congratulations.
-Cheers! -Cheers!
DONGHWA: I've decided
to stay with these people a little longer.
I want to figure out what I'm able to do too.
(phone vibrates)
-Cheers! -Cheers!
Hold on. I'll be right back.
-Where are you going? -What?
-HOJUN: Dr. Jung! -Where is he going?
Anyway, congratulations!
-Cheers! -Cheers!

Byeol.
Dad.
What is this?
What's going on?
I came down with Mom.
We're coming down on the weekends from now on.
(car door opens)
How have you been?
(exhales)

(grunts)
Are you even eating properly?
I am.

Thank you.
For being the first…
to ask if we'd come down.

Okay.

MINGUK: Master Kim!
What's going on now?
It's finally here.
MINGUK: The provincial government
will provide funding
for our Doldam Trauma Center.
We achieved the grant, Master Kim.
Congratulations, Director. Congratulations, Master Kim!
Good job, Director Park and Chief Jang.
This is all thanks to you running around for the past three years.
You did a great job.
We did it, all of us!
-That's right. -(all laugh)
-Good job, Chief Jang. -GITAE: Thank you.
-(all laugh) -SABU: Let's keep up the hard work.
Yes, let's do that.
OFFICER CHOI: Excuse me.
(door closes)
Hello.
Pardon my intrusion.
The results of the Trauma Center's trial
are quite miserable.
So many things need to be revised and corrected.
I think getting the provincial budget is the least of your worries now.
Right. We're still in the middle of conducting simulations.
As per my observation over these few days, many things need to be rectified.
Shall we start with you accepting non-trauma patients?
CHIEF CHOI: I can't not talk about what happened during the last inspection.
You're lucky that I was there.
You see, if it is found difficult
to operate facilities and equipment exclusively for trauma use
during disasters or serious situations
following a natural disaster,
you'll need approval from the Minister of Health and Welfare
to use it again.
So are you ready to make a choice?
I want to ask you something first.
What's your vision
for the Trauma Center?
(in English) Level One.
(in Korean) From Gangwon-do to Chungcheongbuk-do and Gyeongsangbuk-do,
I want all severe trauma patients within an hour's distance by air ambulance
to be received here.
Everything, even pediatric trauma.
I want to make sure no one dies due to a lack of available doctors.
DONGHWA: I want to make sure no one wanders the streets
because there's no hospital to admit them.
I want us to be able to take care of all severe trauma cases
within our area.
In order to do that,
we need a surgeon as good as you.
How about it?
Don't you want to reach Level One with me?
My left hand hasn't completely recovered yet.
I'll need to continue physical therapy.
You still have your skillful right hand.
WOOJIN: Once again, I have a new dream.
Level One, you said.
Yes.
For now.

WOOJIN: My heart…
has begun to race again.
I have decided to once again fall for what you guys say.
Good.
That's how revenge works.
I avenge my heartbreaks
with good, not evil.
I make sure it doesn't happen again.
That is
mature revenge.
I'll watch until the very end.
You'll have to prove to me every year
what it is you guys are trying to do.
So be it.
(phone vibrates)
Hello, Nurse Oh, it's me.
Master Kim, there's been a five-vehicle crash.
A car going the wrong way caused an accident nearby on Route 42
and a total of 11 people were injured.
All right. I'm on my way.

SABU: The law of conservation of romance.

but believe they don't,
but despite that,
they hope someone will protect.

Excuse me. Let's have a FAST here!
