I'm Han Jae Joon.
I'm Jang Seok Joo.
Who are you looking for?
I heard there are two teams competing at Myung Woo.
That's right.
The teams are led by Manager Han and Dr. Park Hoon.
Dr. Park Hoon said he's forfeiting.
Forfeiting?
[Thoracic Specialist Park Hoon]
Now you look like a real doctor...
...Dr. Park Hoon.
The woman you're looking for is probably looking forward...
...to the kind of man you've become.
Nice joke.
What?
Whatever.
Will you anesthetize the twins?
Of course.
Didn't you forfeit?
Only under one condition.
What condition?
Your competition or whatever you want to call it...
The hospital has to pay for everything.
Is that all?
I assume you agree.
Please take good care of me.
Are you Professor Park Cheol?
[Episode 8]
What's the matter, premier?
Nothing. I just need to use the bathroom.
Is he really Park Hoon?
Yes, sir.
And he just left after realizing who I am?
What a soft-hearted fool.
Let me see.
You resemble your father a lot.
I'm sorry to hear about him.
Why did you do it?
Why do you think I did?
Father!
Mr. Premier!
You know what?
I want to win this competition or whatever you call it.
I need to find out how your heart looks like.
I wonder if you could really fix it.
I'd like to find out too.
Pray that I don't win.
As soon as I open you up...
...I'll puncture it.
If you ever want to see my heart...
...you'll have to give it your all.
If not...
...you might never see your girlfriend in North Korea again.
Premier! Are you alright?
Oh, it's nothing. I was just dizzy.
It's not a big deal.
Dr. Park Hoon!
Park Hoon!
Oops!
Say that again!
Tell me, tell me! Te Te Te Te Te Tell me!
What was going on?
It's nothing. I felt light headed.
I should've told you in advance.
You know...
...who Park Hoon is.
I know him?
He's his son.
That's right.
He's Park Cheol's son.
Wow, that was tense.
Is it always like this in the men's room?
No, you just hear water normally.
Drip, drip, drip...
Come on, let's go in.
Thank you for your kind heart.
Oh wait.
You said you're Dr. Han?
Yes.
What's your motivation for doing my surgery?
I want to be the lord of Myung Woo.
Dr. Han!
I want to prove to our director that I'm the most capable...
...to be the top of Myung Woo...
...with his approval.
That's not very smart of you to say that...
...in front of the premier.
I really like...
...people with clear goals.
Just like you, director.
See you later.
See you again.
Dr. Han looks very reliable.
I consider him my future son-in-law...
...so please excuse his acting rashly.
Oh, don't worry.
I like his confidence.
I'd trust him to do my heart surgery.
Really?
Then what about Park Hoon?
Well, he's competing against Dr. Han.
I'd say...
...he only has a slim chance.
Are you kidding?
Why is Park Cheol's son in my hospital?
He's a very talented doctor...
...just like Professor Park Cheol.
Dr. Choi!
He's lacking in some areas...
...but I'm sure he'll become a better doctor...
...through competing with Dr. Han.
Do you think I'll let him stay at Myung Woo?
You should.
I know too many things about Myung Woo.
What are you saying, Dr. Choi?
It's in the premier's interest to watch...
...how the competition will unfold.
Are you trying to betray me...
...because you feel guilty?
You can believe whatever you want.
I'm just...
...trying to convince you...
...to have a fair competition, director.
Fine.
But I don't want him to stay here for too long.
We don't need to wait.
Let's make it nice it short.
Once and for all.
Hello?
Is this Professor Choi?
Yes, I'm Choi Byeong Cheol.
Hello, I'm Mr. John from the Hope Children's Services.
...who was adopted to the U.S. about twenty years ago.
Yes. Did you find him?
Yes, I hear that he has recently returned to Korea.
Is Lee Sung Hoon...
...really in Korea?
Yes, I have found someone who we think to believe is Mr. Lee.
First, I will confirm...
...if it's really him and then contact you.
[Thoracic Surgeon Chief]
Lee Sung Hoon!
["Sitting on a donkey and looking for the donkey."]
[Don't you say "looking for a light with a candle" here?]
[You didn't meet with Dr. Choi, did you?]
[That depends on you.]
[Are you planning on staying in Korea for long?]
[I do need to visit Beijing...]
[Do you think I can today?]
[Why do you need to go to Beijing?]
[You did too well fixing my father's heart.]
[This is his third wedding.]
[I've booked a 6 o'clock flight.]
[You should be a good son.]
[You're just dying to get me out of Korea.]
[Please say hi to your father for me.]
[It's almost complete.]
[Almost...]
[What are you going to do once you're done?]
I'm going to destroy it.
I built the castle to destroy it one day.
How did it go?
I have something to ask you.
Their ABGA results are getting worse.
We need to rush the surgery.
[ABGA: arterial blood gas]
If you ever want to see my heart...
...you'll have to give it your all.
If not...
...you might never see your girlfriend in North Korea again.
Why did you decide to do this surgery?
To save the newborns.
Is that all?
Why do you...
Dr. Park!
What did you decide?
I decided to do it.
That's good to hear.
How much are you charging this time?
Charging for what?
What do you mean?
Well, it's...
You charged patients?
Yes, I charged them a silver dollar. Is that so wrong?
Of course it was.
It was a little girl's money.
It was mine and I found it first!
She tricked me and took it!
Is that it?
Of course that's it!
It's $100 a stitch.
Darn it.
Why did you do that?
He said it costs a fortune to bring back...
...his girlfriend who looks just like you, Dr. Han.
How much did you say you need?
I forgot.
That's pathetic.
What would your girlfriend say if she knew?
What would she say?
Do you really not know?
Does she still look like Jae Hee to you?
Don't take it out on Dr. Han!
Darn it. I'm leaving.
Where do you think you're going?
You should eat what you ordered before you leave.
Are you cheating on Jae Hee?
Ouch! You!
Have a seat first.
I want to hear how you met Jae Hee.
We just did.
Hi. My name is Song Jae Hee.
What's yours?
You just met and you can't live without her?
It was love at first sight, right?
You said she smiles a lot.
Smile? No.
You said she smiled a lot.
What's her personality like?
Ouch! How can you be so cruel to your soulmate?
She's something. Really mean, too.
Sure, I'll marry you...
...in a hundred years!
Why do you like her so much?
She's Jae Hee.
That's so sweet.
Does she know how you feel about her?
How would she know? She can't even hear me.
I'm going.
What do you want to tell her...
...when you meet her?
That you missed her?
No.
Then what?
I'll save the babies for sure. Don't worry about that.
What's your real plan?
What's your real reason for doing this surgery?
That's what I want to tell her.
Later.
Would you mind if I leave too?
Sure.
Are you out of your mind? What if Park Hoon sees you?
What did that jerk...
...do to Premier Jang?
What do you mean?
I got a call.
He told me to leave him alone.
What about the surgical team?
Go be part of...
...Han Jae Joon's team.
Park Hoon's chances will drop...
...if you tell people who he is.
What's the matter with that?
Are you willing to draw back on Park Hoon?
I like Han Jae Joon as well.
Hello.
Nice to meet you.
- Long time no see. - Yes.
Who will you take?
It doesn't make a difference. Let's start quickly.
How about tonight?
Sounds perfect.
Are you going to be alright?
This competition is for everything.
I like it. Once and for all is nice and simple.
Then I'm looking forward to it.
Let's sit.
This competition is...
Why is it once and for all?
Who cares? We can win it.
Are you sure you can?
Should I make a pitch with my messer if I don't feel well?
Why, you!
The surgery can't last more than 45 minutes.
It has to end within the first half of a soccer match.
If we don't win by then, we lose.
There is no second half.
Why is the time frame so short?
The goal of the Norwood procedure is to...
...make the baby an aorta.
You have to arrest the heart temporarily with a bypass.
If it takes too long, the baby will die.
It's that simple.
It's why I'll need the best hands I can get.
They have to be like the hands and feet of the head surgeon.
The first assistant is especially important...
...in determining the outcome of a surgery.
Don't worry.
I worked as a first assistant during my residency.
That's right.
Rock it together...
...like you guys are one person!
Here.
What's that?
Can't you tell? It's your reward.
If you want to shower in this...
...then let's absolutely win!
Here, here!
Who's our first assistant?
Dr. Oh.
I don't want to say it in front of her...
...but she's inadequate.
What do you mean?
An anesthesiologist best knows a surgeon's skill.
To be honest, Dr. Oh...
...has already shown us her weakness.
Fine.
If you're going to continue, then I'll leave.
All I care about is whether or not the patient makes it.
This isn't something you can do, Dr. Oh.
Even at out hospital, not many surgeons can do...
...repair a septal rupture and do a CABG simultaneously.
Dr. Keum is one of them.
Dr. Moon...
Dr. Han, the first assistant has to have...
...the skill required to be a head surgeon...
...in order to win this competition. Don't you agree?
I say for us to win, it's right to have Dr. Keum...
...as our team's first assistant.
If you strip away...
...her fancy background and prestige as the director's daughter...
...she's just an ordinary doctor.
Watch your mouth, Dr. Moon!
What do you mean?
I think that's enough, Dr. Moon.
Don't bother!
I didn't say anything wrong.
Everyone, stop.
I will decide my own first assistant.
Our first assistant is going to be...
...Dr. Oh.
That's it for today's meeting. You can leave.
Yes, sir.
Except for you, Dr. Oh.
Don't worry about what Dr. Moon said.
You can just tell me now if you think I'm inadequate.
I don't want to be blamed.
I've told you this before.
You're the first assistant for our team, Soo Hyun.
Do you mean it?
Promise me you'll prepare well for it.
Okay.
I'll do my best.
Good.
We have our first assistant.
How about an anesthesiologist?
Dr. Han said she'll do it.
Really?
Whatever.
Can you anesthetize the twins?
Of course.
Then you're the head surgeon...
...Yang Jung Han is the first assistant...
...and Dr. Han is our anesthesiologist?
There's our team!
We need to find our scrub team too.
Scrub team?
The less time we spend actually getting them into surgery...
...the better chance they have to live.
Right.
We only have a limited amount of time.
Why do you want to leave the hospital?
They're not here right now.
Not here?
Let's go.
Let's go, let's go.
Shall we?
It sounds to me you're giving up on Park Hoon...
...since you're telling me to join Dr. Han's team.
I don't care about Park Hoon's plan...
...but...
...the battle has begun.
Park Hoon has to win.
How can he win without anesthetics?
He has to!
He'll just be useless trash if he loses.
You and I...
...will die...
...and so will he.
Things are getting ridiculous.
What's wrong?
You know the surgery for those twins?
Dr. Oh's going to be the first assistant.
What about Dr. Keum?
That's exactly what I'm saying!
It's too funny to see him trying to protect his girl.
Dr. Moon?
What?
Should we try to convince Dr. Han?
You said you're looking for your scrub team.
Why are we at Nurse Min's place?
I heard Nurse Min was a head...
...surgical nurse before she moved here.
Isn't it typically fatal when the valves are too small?
She seems experienced.
Hello, Nurse Min!
The baby's asleep. Please don't ring the bell.
What's wrong with her?
Hold on, hold on!
The baby is sleeping.
I don't care about her kid!
Oh my goodness! What are you doing?
Ouch!
Can you please leave now?
Ow, my back...
You'll wake up the baby, Nurse Min.
Let's go.
You really want to win against Dr. Han that badly?
The surgery is tonight.
I left the operating room a long time ago.
I'm sure you can find a better nurse at Myung Woo.
He's really handsome.
What's his name?
Seung Min.
The twins haven't even been named yet.
They're the same age as Seung Min.
They might go to the same daycare...
...or the same school.
They might even be Seung Min's best friends.
Please, Nurse Min. I'm asking you sincerely.
That was quite touching.
Did it work?
I almost, almost fell for it.
Which part?
Same school? Seung Min's best friend?
Why are you making such a big deal...
...out of your scrub team?
It's worth it.
Did she say she'll do it?
I don't know yet.
What? You don't know?
You went through all that and you don't know?
I went through that mess, not you!
Why are you mad, master?
Aren't you mad?
We got the door slammed in our faces!
Can I borrow $10?
Why?
I want ice cream.
I'll give you $100.
Hey!
Here!
Good job.
You left the operating room long ago.
What do you think will happen during tonight's surgery?
Seung Min's daddy...
...you're the first assistant on Dr. Park's team.
I won't be a part of it.
Park Hoon...
...will never beat Dr. Han.
Park Hoon! Hey!
Park Hoon!
Wasn't Dr. Han supposed to be our anesthesiologist?
- Yeah, why? - She said she won't do it!
Go now.
I'm sorry. I asked to be off.
Off?
I have something to do after work.
It's an important surgery.
What's going on?
I don't think I need to explain myself to you.
You said you wanted to save the infants' lives.
I did...
...but not today.
Are you kidding?
I haven't had a day off since I started working here.
It's my first day off. I need some time to myself.
What about the babies?
I'm not the only anesthesiologist here.
You're the only one to me.
You know how important your role is for this surgery.
Please.
I'm sorry.
That's right, the surgery is at 10.
What? You're leaving?
You're a manager and you're leaving that early?
Why are the anesthesiologists always leaving...
...whenever I call?
Hey! Hey!
Jesus.
Whatever.
Will you anesthetize the twins?
Of course.
Why did you decide to do this surgery?
To save the newborns.
Is that all?
I'm sorry.
Darn it.
Dr. Moon?
What do you want?
Don't you need...
...an anesthesiologist?
Are you really trying to set me off?
No way.
I'm here to help you.
Dr. Moon's helping the water boy?
That's what I heard.
She was really firm about it.
It's because of you.
What?
She's protesting to have you as the first assistant.
I'm sorry, manager...
I caused...
There's no need for that.
I'll just find another anesthesiologist.
Sure. That works too.
Anesthetics for tonight's surgery?
Yes.
Can you help me?
They are twins with left chamber malformations.
Go be part of...
...Han Jae Joon's team.
I'm so sorry.
I'm taking the day off.
You're leaving?
Yes. I have something important to take care of.
Whatever your plans are...
...can you postpone them?
The newborns need surgery immediately.
I heard you have someone, Dr. Park.
That's right. I don't need anyone.
Are you telling me to help Dr. Han?
What are you thinking?
Aren't you in a close competition?
That's why it should be fair.
I don't want to feel bad even after I win.
That's interesting...
...but not tonight.
Dr. Han!
You stole my anesthesiologist.
Are you messing with me?
I'm just trying to find you a replacement.
Do I look that pitiful to you?
Do you think I'll lose that easily...
...just because I don't have an anesthesiologist?
I'm sure you're aware it's going to be hard...
...without a good anesthesiologist. Right?
It all depends on the hands of the head surgeon.
I'm impressed by your spirit.
Let's hope for the best.
Dr. Han.
Director.
Does this castle represent Myung Woo?
It's just a hobby of mine...
...to relieve stress and tension.
Who's the lord of this castle?
If it does represent Myung Woo...
...there's no doubt that it's...
Me?
No.
The castle belongs to Myung Woo.
I'm only a figurehead because Myung Woo allows me to be.
If I'm weak, Myung Woo would reject me...
...without hesitation.
You said you want to be the lord of castle?
Then show Myung Woo...
...that you're capable.
Take care of the invader who's made it to the inside.
You mean Park Hoon?
Remember...
...it's not me who's watching you.
Myung Woo wants to see...
...how you deal with this invader.
It's right to have Dr. Keum...
...as our team's first assistant.
If you strip away...
...her fancy background and prestige as the director's daughter...
...she's just an ordinary doctor.
I've told you this before.
You're the first assistant for our team, Soo Hyun.
Messer.
I've wanted to ask you this for a while.
Darn it!
What's with this?
That's a quack for you.
Stop fooling around.
It's called image training.
Go away. Go.
Can you...
...teach me what the first assistant needs to do?
You want me to train...
...the enemy's first assistant?
That's not important now!
Well, I guess if you're not fit on your own...
...it's wise to be a good parasite.
Listen, Dr. Park!
What are you doing?
You asked me to teach you!
What's so funny?
Quack, did you think I was going...
...to put my hands all over you? Huh?
Whatever, I'm done.
Fine. I'm sorry.
Let's save the twins.
Let me go!
Close your eyes.
Just imagine.
Can you see the heart at your fingertips?
Dr. Oh, what are you doing?
Do you have a moment?
Thank you, Dr. Park.
Sure.
Did you forget Dr. Oh is...
...the other team's first assistant?
You're competing with Dr. Han.
Dr. Park, is this competition a joke to you?
You're the one who's treating it like a joke.
You said you'll do anesthesia for us and then refused.
Then I asked you to help the other team and you still refused.
Let me tell you something.
There's a lot at stake in this competition.
Like what?
Are we going to pay with our lives if we lose?
I really thought you were Jae Hee for a second...
...but not anymore.
Why do you say that?
Jae Hee would have told me...
...the outcome of the competition didn't matter.
It's because it's important to you, Dr. Park.
What's more important than the newborns right now?
Can't you see them?
They're less than a month old.
They have hoses in their mouths.
They can't say anything when they're in pain.
We have to open up their soft chests...
...and even if we do the surgery, there's no guarantee they'll survive.
A competition? What's so important about that?
Why is it so important to win?
But Dr. Park...
Go get some rest. You said you were tired.
I'll do just fine in this stupid competition.
Just leave.
Don't worry about anesthesia for your surgery.
I told you to leave.
What do you mean?
You want me to give up being first assistant?
Yes.
Let's use Dr. Keum just this once.
What's your reason?
Dr. Moon is going to be the water boy's anesthesiologist.
So?
She said she'll come back if we use Dr. Keum...
...as our first assistant.
No.
Soo Hyun.
I really want to do this surgery.
I know it's embarrassing...
...but I even asked Dr. Park for help.
Now you just want me to give up?
Sorry, Jae Joon.
You didn't look embarrassed.
It looks like you're really falling for him to me.
Jae Joon, are you.... Are you jealous?
This is my order as manager.
Let Dr. Keum be the first assistant for this surgery.
I said I'll do it!
Listen to your boss!
This is why people say you get all the glory from your dad.
You know that's not true.
It's every doctor's dream to successfully perform...
...a difficulty surgery like the Norwood procedure.
It shouldn't be done because you want to.
It should be done because you can.
What do you mean?
You think I can't?
Sorry, but I don't.
Dr. Keum doesn't have to ask the water boy for help.
Jae Joon...
I heard you.
Use Dr. Keum as your first assistant.
Of course, Dr. Moon!
Okay.
I'm on my way to the operating room!
Dr. Keum's going to be the first assistant...
...for today's surgery.
What about the quack?
I mean Dr. Oh.
That's just what I heard.
What's going on?
Can you get a room?
Let's go find a room.
[Manager Han]
I need help from my knight, please.
Is this what you meant...
...when you said you wouldn't do it?
I can't stay at the bottom forever.
If I do what Manager Han tells me to...
...I can be an assistant manager by next year.
Hopefully, our lives will be easier too.
You know what will happen to the twins...
...if they don't get this surgery!
If Park Hoon can't do it, Dr. Han will.
Don't you know why they're rushing it?
You're a parent too.
You're a father.
I'm trying to be a better father.
What about a better doctor?
I wanted to know what you were thinking...
...but I don't think I need to hear it anymore.
Go away. Get lost.
Get out of my face!
What should I do with a fool like you?
What happened?
I'm so sorry. The surgery is in just a few hours.
What did I do wrong in a past life?
Did I sell out my country or something?
Why do things like this keep happening to me?
It's too bad.
You'll just have to do it, master.
Don't you know I'm on probation?
Then who's going to be my first assistant?
If I knew, I wouldn't be acting like this!
Darn it!
Ouch!
Ow!
I'm going to lose it!
Hey there, quack.
Are you sleeping?
I don't have time to joke around with you.
I heard you got fired as first assistant.
I told you to go away!
Help me.
My first assistant was injured.
Don't you know I'm part of Dr. Han's team?
Taking sides isn't important right now.
Then what is?
Saving those babies' lives.
You can't save them with a quack like me.
I think I can with a hard-working quack.
We don't have much time. Are you in or not?
Good decision.
Your hands are perfect to be a thoracic surgeon.
But...
...I have to tell you something.
What are you doing?
Can't you see?
- I'm getting ready for surgery. - Who's surgery?
Dr. Han's.
What about my surgery?
You promised you'd take care of anesthesia for me.
- I did. - Dr. Moon!
I didn't lie.
I'm a veteran here.
I have a lot of qualified colleagues.
Where are you, Dr. Han?
I'm looking around for a place to rent.
We have an urgent surgery. Can you come in?
I'm guessing things worked out well?
Yup.
It's 8 right now.
The surgery is at 10. Can you make it by then?
Yes, I can.
Oh, one more thing. Hold on.
It's me.
Hi.
I'm sorry.
It's alright.
Can you come?
We have to save those babies.
Is it to please Jang Seok Joo?
No, it's not because I wanted to be a part of Park Hoon's team.
It was an order from my boss.
If I told them I wanted to be part of Dr. Han's team...
...it would have looked even more suspicious.
I can't tell what the others are thinking...
...but we should follow our own plan.
[Hyung: Older brother or older male]
[Hoon Hyung]
Hi, Hyung.
Are you following them closely?
Why do you need me to follow her?
Where are you?
I'm near Pyeongtaek.
Keep your eyes on them and call me if anything happens.
Yes.
The premier just went to bed.
Alright.
Yes.
The premier just went to bed.
Alright.
Shall we go to my room together?
Are they dating?
That's good.
You originally wanted Dr. Han.
What about a scrub team?
I got it.
When is Dr. Han coming?
Why? Is something wrong?
What would you do if I suddenly disappeared?
I'd search the entire world until I found you.
Really?
Something's fishy.
Do you really have to do this?
You don't need to give me a second thought.
Dr. Keum will outperform me anyway.
So you went to Park Hoon?
I asked her.
Are you stealing my first assistant?
I'll return her as soon as we're done. Let's just focus on the surgery.
What mischief.
Are you that desperate to win?
How did you know?
Can you stop embarrassing me?
Save the baby at all costs. Understand?
Director.
[Lee Chang Yi]
Are you still in Pyeongtaek?
I am...
...but something's going on.
What are you doing?
What?
Hyung, something's really wrong here.
[Hyung: Older brother or older male]
What about Dr. Han? Is she alright?
Jae Hee...
Why did you call me?
We need to adjust our plan.
Adjust?
That's right.
We'll go with Han Jae Joon's team...
...for the premier's surgery.
Hyung!
What's going on?
You know the girl that looks like Unni?
[Unni: Older sister or older female]
Yeah.
Dr. Han Seung Hee!
I think they're going to kill her.
[Doctor Stranger]
What do you mean you're going with Han Jae Joon?
Han Jae Joon's team will do the surgery.
Our plan was to be part of Park Hoon's team.
Plans have changed.
Has your decision been approved by my country?
Do we look that threatening?
What will decide the winner?
It's best to make the aorta as soon as possible.
So whoever can make an aorta...
