Doctor Stranger (닥터 이방인)

Tensions in the Korean Peninsula caused by the withdrawal of North Korea

from the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons

are increasing as the leader of North Korea,

Kim Il Sung, has not made public appearances for weeks now.

Where did I put it?

Here it is!

Smiley, smiley friend Where do we go?

"Lawsuit. Plaintiff, Park Cheol. Defendant, Myeongwoo Hospital?"

What is a lawsuit, Dad?

I'm going to school.

I'm going to school, Dad.

Is this Dr. Park Cheol's house?

- My dad is Dr. Park Cheol. - Is he home?

Dad!

Are you Dr. Park Cheol?

I am Jang Seok-ju from the National Defense Committee.

KOREA - GERMANY DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS JOINT MEDICAL SYMPOSIUM

I've always known that Myeongwoo Hospital has very good connections.

But I never expected they'd ask

a member of Parliament to cover their malpractice lawsuit.

There will be no trial today.

Hello?

Yes, Mr. Choi. I'll be in court on time.

The trial has been postponed?

There's been a threat to national security,

so the Minister of Justice postponed it.

It's only a medical malpractice lawsuit.

It has nothing to do with national security.

The government is expecting a war to break out within a few days.

- It's a tank! - What's that?

You're awesome, Sir!

Look at the wheels.

Look, helicopters!

An attack by American forces will start the war.

The nuclear-powered aircraft carrier,

the USS George Washington,

as well as dozens of warships and nuclear submarines

are ready to make an attack on North Korea.

- Why would the US attack them? - They will be sure to attack

the Yongbyon Nuclear Power Plant.

This is to disarm North Korea of nuclear weapons.

Once the attack commences, North Korea will counterattack.

And that will start the war between North and South Korea.

I don't get it.

I am only a cardiothoracic surgeon.

Why would you tell me this?

You are the only one who can prevent this war.

Let's get inside.

Come on, go home. Go home.

Nice to see you again.

Dad!

I'll be waiting for your call.

You didn't go to work? Can you stay for lunch?

I'll be late today. There's food in the refrigerator.

- People, please! - Please, calm down!

- That's mine! Mine! - Hey, let go of this!

- Don't do that, please! - You can't do this!

My goodness! Please stop them!

I guess they're selling something very nice.

According to a distributor,

the average sales of this ramen was 30 boxes a day,

but hundreds of boxes were sold today.

That means 50 million ramen packets were sold in the entire country.

Let's eat.

I saw loads of tanks and soldiers on my way to school.

Can we go to America if war breaks out?

Mom lives in America.

War doesn't break out so easily.

Seoul isn't far from here.

Once the war begins, the country will be covered in flames.

- But... - And we won't survive it.

Are you making any sense here?

- That is why we... - You think we'll let that happen?

- That's why we must strike first. - I asked you a question.

- Are you declaring war? - They already declared war.

- Didn't you hear me? - But...

What? What do you mean an unidentified vessel?

I don't get it.

Hey.

Hey, what's going on here?

What is it? Do you see anything?

It's a severe angiostenosis in the coronary arteries.

He won't survive more than a month if no measures are taken.

Whose heart is it?

If we can cure that heart, we can prevent this war.

Well, then bring him to my hospital.

He can't come here.

You must go to where he is.

And where is that?

North Korea.

Then is this...

Yes, that is Kim Il Sung's heart.

If he dies now, North Korea will be in turmoil.

And the US sees this as the perfect moment to strike at them.

MOM

But listen to me.

- I told you I can't explain it now. - I'm getting married in a few days.

I can't take care of him right now.

I know it's not easy for you. But Hun is your son too.

This is so typical of you! You're always so selfish.

I want everything that has to do with you gone from my life including Hun.

- You're his mother. - I'm sick and tired of it.

Don't ever call me again.

Mr. Choi will be here when you're back from school.

Stay in his house and Mom will come for you.

- I want to stay with you. - Just do as I say.

Mom...

doesn't like me.

Dad.

Dad.

Dad.

See you later, Dad.

Hun!

Hun.

This is the latest war scenario between the two Koreas by the US.

Is it true you sent a doctor to North Korea?

Yes, to prevent the attack by the Americans.

A doctor will prevent it? Can you explain yourself?

The US will attack North Korea

as soon as Kim Il Sung dies from a heart disease.

The US sees it as the best moment to attack as their leader is dead.

- So that doctor... - That's right.

He will operate on Kim Il Sung's heart.

KUMSUSAN PALACE OF THE SUN, PYONGYANG

As soon as they launch their attack,

North Korea will counterattack all US bases in South Korea.

But what really matters is

that they will also strike at our nuclear power plants.

If any of them are hit,

it will cause a disaster of greater magnitude than Hiroshima.

Even if we win the war,

one-third of the land in South Korea will be inhabitable for 200 years.

His heart stopped!

- CPR! - Prepare CPR!

Three ampoules of Epinephrine!

You must save him, Dr. Park.

Hun.

Mr. Jang?

The US government has approved the strike on North Korea.

What?

Mr. President!

- What in the world is going on? - Attack North Korea?

- You should have expected this! - We can't just sit and do nothing!

- Why won't you let us in? - Let us in!

- I want the visa! - Let me in!

40 YEARS OF KOREA AND US ALLIANCE

US EMBASSY OF KOREA

Let me in!

Give me the visa!

- Get the pump ready. - Yes, it's ready.

Tube.

Defibrillators.

Charge to 20.

Let's wrap this up. Stay focused until the end.

The former president Jimmy Carter visited Pyongyang during which

Kim Il Sung promised him they'll tentatively stop nuclear development.

The imminent threat of a war that loomed over the Korean Peninsula for months

is thought to be cleared at present.

A turbulent age creates a hero and that hero rules the world.

- Mr. Jang, war has been averted. - You did it!

- You did a great job! - Very good job!

- A great job! - Thank you.

- You did it. - Good!

- You did it. - Thank you.

Carter's visit was assessed to have been positive.

What is that?

My dad makes these knots when he stitches a wound.

- Do you want to become a doctor? - Yes.

I think it's awesome to save a dying man.

Yes, that's great.

I'm Song Jae Hui.

What's your name?

Hun.

It's time to go.

Dad, one second.

My name is Hun, Park Hun.

To a wonderland

To the cave of the devil Where Nina is held captive

Dad, look. There's an odd-looking truck.

Dad, are we not going home?

- I don't think we can. - Why not?

Korea only needs one hero and that will be me, Jang Seok-ju.

Our hero, Jang Seok-ju!

Jang Seok-ju!

Jang Seok-ju, the hero!

- Jang Seok-ju! Jang Seok-ju! - Jang Seok-ju! Jang Seok-ju!

Where is my son?

Where is my son?

Where is my Hun? My son! Where is my son?

Where is my son?

Good morning!

I am Jang Seok-ju!

- Jang Seok-ju! Jang Seok-ju! - Jang Seok-ju! Jang Seok-ju!

- Jang Seok-ju! Jang Seok-ju! - Jang Seok-ju! Jang Seok-ju!

These South Koreans.

They are so cold-hearted.

The South Korean Park Cheol is dead.

You are North Korean citizens from now on.

Comrade Park Cheol.

Sorry. The tape is warped.
